tagcat Y & October 6, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 21 Playwriting Classes to Take Up Piece by Alice C. D. Riley "The Little New Moon," a poetic romance written in the Chinese man- ner, the latest play by Alice C. D. Riley (Mrs. Harrison B. Riley), will be the first to have consideration in an open meeting of the playwriting classes of the Evanston Drama club and the club members. This will be held in the audience room of the Evanston public library Tues- day morning, Oct. 30. It will institute the series of open meetings, to be held the last Tuesday mornings of every month, for which the Drama club and playwriting class members will join. It marks one of the sea- son's innovations in this part of the playshop project of the club which will this season have the official su- pervision of Northwestern university and be directed by the university with cooperation of the Drama club. A Forward Step The procedure which has been in- dentified closely with the Drama club since inception of the playwriting classes some years ago, has had its burden carried in the great part by Mrs. Riley. Increasing responsibilities in her profession are forcing her light- ening of this burden, and its as- suming by the university is considered a- highly important forward step in the project's development. There are two playwriting classes this season, both of which have begun their sessions. The class meets Tuesday mornings between 10 and 12 at the university. The ad- vanced class meets at the university hetween 3 and ° Mondays. Both are, as the classes have been almost from the beginning, under the direction of Theodore B. Hinckley, editor of "The Drama" and a member of the faculty of the School of Speech, Northwestern university, To Discuss Current Plays At these open meetings of the class- es and the Drama ¢lub members, Mr. Hinckley will discuss both plays that are being written in the two classes and professional plays that are engag- ing attention on the Chicago and New York stage during the season. Mrs. Riley's new play has been selected for the first tryout of the season at the October meeting. To these meetings the general public will be admitted by season ticket. The discussions in the classes of the past have proved lively, interesting, entertaining and in- formative, and the conjunction with the university and expansion of the project this season promises to rein- vigorate them even beyond their value of the past, club members believe. Mr. Hinckley was one of a group of leaders in the drama movement in America who spent the summer in tour of the theaters and dramatic centers of Europe and he will bring to his audiences and classes aug- mented information gained from these sources. IN NEW QUARTERS The Winnetka Secretarial service, the efficient young organization which started in a small way last February and has served so many Winnetkans since then so well, has found it neces- sary due to the rapid growth of its business to enlarge its office space and increase the personnel. Tt is now lo- cated at 746 Elm street, upstairs, in rooms 9 and 10, where it hopes to even more efficiently take care of the secre- tarial needs of its patrons. Mr. and Mrs. Ira J. Owen and their small daughter, Jean, who have been living on Foxdale road this summer, will move soon to the Tatham home at 349 Hawthorn lane which they have purchased.
