Scouts Show Off Wares At Annual Public Night Annual Boy Scouts Public Night for Winnetka Scout Troop No. 1 was held at Community House Thursday of this week. The evening's program various exhibitions and demonstra- tions of Scouteraft including knot- tying contests, bridge building, sig- nal work and many other interesting features.

The game was to be staged at the Com- munity House gym. The Horace Mann Orioles and the Country Day Wild Cats met at Community House What's One to Do When Thomas Feels That Way About It? Joseph I. Thomas, landscape gar-| dener, was highly flattered Saturday | afternoon when a Winnetka police magistrate nicked him to the rounde- lay of $5 and costs on a charge of propelling his demon flivver at the | dizzy pace of 31 miles an hour. Thomas is still dazed over it all. Last Frday he was "picked up" in a high wind by one of Winnetka's motorcycle terrors and informed that his otherwise pokey machine had ac- tually achieved the previously men- tioned excessive rate of speed. "When do I pay for all this?" Thomas shouted in sheer glee. "Gee, you're not anxious to pay, are you?" the copper encountered in amazement. "Anxious to pay?" Thomas queried. "Well 1 guess yes. If that bus can make 31 I've a right to pay plenty. It must have been the wind that did it. The old car hasn't keyed up to more than 15 on her own power since so long ago I can't seem to remem- ber." The motorcycle terror is slowly re- covering, "No pleasure pinchin' a guy like that," he says. 'PENROD' TO ATTRACT LOCAL FILM PATRONS Every detail of Booth Tarkington's laughable characterization of Ameri- can boyhood has been faithfully re- tained for the screen in Marshall Neil- an's production "Penrod," which will be shown at Winnetka Community House next Friday evening. The cast, embodying as it does all the episodes of the stories, is a large one composed mostly of juveniles who are exceptionally adept at their art. In addition to Freckles Barry who stars in the title role, there will be Herman and Verman, the two darkies who featured in the stories, Rupe Col- lins, the town's tough guuy, Georgie Bassett, Maurice Levy and Penrod's sister and suitor. The role of the sister is played by Marjorie Daw who appeared in "The River's End," and "Bob Hampton ot Placer." . With Booth Tarkington's book as a foundation Mr. Neilan has taken the various episodes and moulded them into a coherent picture full of comedy situations and indicative of American boyhood. Among the various incidents said to figure prominently in Penrod's screen career are: the formation of the American Boys' Protective Association, the day at the circus, the dancing class, the amateur theatricals known as "The! Children's Pageant of the Table Rqund," and the capture of two no-| torious bandits by the boys.
