16 WINNETKA TALK September 22, 1928 New Trier Student Roster to Surpass 1700 Mark, Report Enrollment at New Trier Township High school had reached 1,678 by Tuesday noon of this week. With thirty-three more students expected to register late, the enrollment will pass the 1,700 mark. This is about the normal increase for the school as a whole, according to Wesley IL. Brown, director of research at the high school, although the freshman class is not as large as last year. The number of students in each class is: Freshman, 468; sophomore, 470: junior, 405 and senior, 335. At present the boys outnumber the girls by a scant margin, 840 to 838. However, of the 33 intending to enroll later, 21 are girls and 12 are boys, which will throw the balance in the girls' favor. The fact that there are so many boys is rather unusual, according to Mr. Brown.

The nights are crisp as mountain nights can be, but without moisture to make frost. Aspens in the high places, cottonwoods along the bottom lands, are flaring in golden color. Every day is new and different and wonderful. And from Los Cerros, once a Spanish rancho, now a modern resort, you can play and ride and motor through these brilliant days--returning to open fires, a splen- did table, and the comforts of a good hotel.

Cresmer, 542 Longwood avenue, Glencoe, won first prize in the children's jumping class at the recent horse show at the Palatine fair. He also carried off further honors by winning second in the children's riding class; third, in the three-gaited saddle class and fourth in the pair horse class. Shureput also won first place in the children's riding class at Indian Hill a short time ago. Shureput was purchased a short time before the Palatine fair by Mr. Cresmer from John Hartnett, of 437 Chestnut street, Winnetka, who trained the gelding and who also entered him in the Palatine show. : Mr. Cresmer owns a 340,000 acre ranch at Vermejo, N. M. Here the Cresmers spend their summers and here Mary Jane Cresmer, the new owner of Shureput, is as much at home in the saddle of the most spirited broncho as she is in the comfortable cushions of the family car. She was instructed in the art of English riding by Mr. Hartnett and is now equally adept in handling her new mount, as evidenced by her record at Palatine, where there was a long list of experienced riders over which she won first honors.
