As you know, many of our young ladies have been playing softball this summer several evenings a week in the field on Lilac and Pine. Mrs. Mimi DeWitt helped organize the girls. It seems as if Bill DeWitt works with a man from Chicago who has a group of boys playing ball this summer. Word got around, and the boys from Chicago challenged our girls to a game. The big game was last Sunday, and what a game it was. In the first inning the score was 13-3; infavor of the girls, and at the game's end, the girls had proved who the better ball players were, and won the game by a score of 18-9. There were some exuberant little girls, and some very disappointed little boys. But the disappointment didn't last long, as following the game, a bar­ becue and pool party was held in the DeWitt's yard. The boys' coach, Marsh, had also brought along a trampoline for all the kids to enjoy. For the boys, the whole day was a treat. Most of them were from the loop area in Chicago, and rarely get a chance to spend a day out in the country. The kids had a great day, and Mimi reports that everyting went as smooth as Girls from Holiday Hills who were members of this "great" team were Noreen DeWitt, Priscilla Kasprzyk, Kelly Wegener, Janice Emmons, Diane Boettcher, Denise Hughes, Pat Chappel, Nancy Foreman, Estelle Foreman, Janet Szamlewski, Valerie Braun, Paula Carbone, Gina Boettcher and Sally Foreman. Congratulations, girls, and a bouquet of roses to the DeWitts for getting everything organized. WOMEN'S CLUB TO MEET The Holiday Hills Women's Club will hold its August meeting on Wednesday evening, Aug. 9, at the home of Mary Ann Mahon, starting at 8:30 p.m. TRIP TO CANADA The Robert Szamlewski family of Sunset Drive recently spent 10 wonderful days starting on July 10, at a resort in Sioux Narrows, Ontario, Canada. Fishing ̂ swimming, boating, and skiing were en­ joyed by the whole family. Betty reports they did not catch any trophy size fish, but son, Jimmy, caught some really good size fish, and Cathy and Kenny caught some little petch. For Jimmy, Joey, and Janet, it was their first tune on water skite, but they did real well, and got up the first time. The highlight of their trip, at least for Betty and Bob, was the day the older children sat for the younger ones, and they could get away for a while. With thousands of islands to choose from, they chose one beautiful one, and enjoyed a day of picnicking and relaxing. While the trip was a lon^qne, 1608 miles both ways, Betty and Bob, and the children, Jimmy, Joey, Janet, Kenny, Christy, and Cathy, enjoyed it thoroughly^ and wished they could have stayed longer.

While there they stayed at a motel, which provided for their enjoyment, a supper club with country-western en­ tertainment every night, sauna bath, bowling lanes, and an indoor pool. Their days were spent touring the lovely Wisconsin countryside, in­ cluding an Indian Mission and other interesting sights nearby. While Mom and Dad were in Wisconsin, children, Laura and Chris Kottke, were spending the weekend in Wheeling with Bonnie and Paul Kottke. The whole Kottke family, including cousins and brothers from around the area, met at the Lake County Fair on Sunday to watch cousin Danny Kottke from Barrington compete in the 5,000 Class Tractor Pull. He won fourth place and was pretty proud, as it was his first time competing. Quite a memorable weekend for all the Kottkeg. FAMILY PICNIC The mosquitoes did their best last Sunday afternoon, and drove the party inside to the basement, but even they could not dampen the spirits of a family reunion held at the Kellen home. Bonnie's aunt, Mrs. Nell Cook, from Kissimmee, Fla., is here on a vacation, so it was a good time to get all the relatives together for a partyr There were Bon­ nie's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Cook of Eyanston, Aunts and uncles Mr. and Mrs. Harold Cook of Evanston, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Kinsey of Evanston, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Cook of Algonquin, and cousins Gary Cook and wife, Kathy, from Chicago, Tom and Barabara Amoux and daughter Pammy, from Evanston, Debby Cook, andDavid and Pat Cook from Evanston. Also Kathy Cook's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Dutch Rittenhouse, and sister, Ann Lee, were here for the day from Evansville, Ind. Most everyone enjoyed the beach, as that was one ̂ more place to escapeimd mosquitoes and all enjoyed the food and fun of the day.

B., Brmldwood, m.: j I read recently in this column' about the Wisconsin woman that stated her father bought a shiny black Model T Ford in 1917. She mentioned he had a hard time learning to shift from first to second. But there was no second gear back then;- It went from first to high with a foot pedal. I know because I was a car deal­ er and had a 1916 Model T Ford that sold for $390.00, full price. It had to carry two spare tires, because the front wheels were smaller. When I was 15, I worked iq deep mines for $1.00 per 8-hour day and sometimes had to walk six miles each way when the roads were icy. I also dug graves and covered the same for $4.00 when the weather was sometimes 28 below zero. I recall a funeral procession that had to use a bob­ sled, because we had to drive over 4 to 5 feet of snow, which had a frozen crust only 5 inches deep on top. If horses would have broken through they would have frozen to death, because there was no snow removal equipment, only men with shovels^ (Sond contribution, to thi, cohtmn to TKo OM Timor.
