No salaries will be paid and such profit as may be realized will be retained in the treasury to defray the cost of future productions. Palmer J. Clark will conduct the or- chestra which will play for each per- formance. Edna Ferber's play, "$1,200 a Year", to be given November 10 and 11 at the Winnetka Woman's club, is the first play scheduled.
