NEW TRIER MEN TO BEN. U. GRID STARS Captain Paterson, Wienecke and Other Ex-High School Stars in Line-Up A STRONG NUCLEUS Thistlethwaite Builds Future Seasons for Under the captaincy of James Pater son, son of Morton L. Paterson, 925 Chestnut avenue, Wilmette, the North- western university gridiron squad will assemble on the fifteenth of next month, to do their best to annex the conference title. Paterson, better known as "Jim- mie Pat" has been spending the sum- mer getting the hardest subjects out of his way for the fall grind, in North- western summer school, has been playing a great deal of golf, and has taken on weight. He looks to be in prime condition to start the season. He left this week for a two week's stay in the woods of northern Wiscon- sin. Before making his departure he spent a great deal of time with Coach Glenn Thistlethwaite in lining up ma- terial for the coming season. Other New Trier Stars Bob Wienecke, of Glencoe, captain of last years' freshman squad, now in the Canadian woods, will be one of the men on whom captain Paterson will place a great deal of the brunt of the campaign. The former New Trier star will take care of one of the back- field positions. Tony Varney and Don Calhoun, also from New Trier are ex pected to be in togs for the start of the season. But fivy regulars were lost to the squad, with last years' graduation. Chuck Palmer, backfield ace, will re- turn, as will"Bill" McElwain, "Henny" Penfield, elephant weight tackle, Red- ding Putman, his side partner, Dwight Mills and Wright Erwine guards, Rem- be, a quarterback who played at 'Washington under Gilmore Dobie, Shearon and Taylor, end men, Blum- enthal, erstwhile quarterback is on the ineligible list. Coach Thistlethwaite is making no prophecy as to the outcome of the conference this year. All he can be made to say is that he is building on the future, that he is going to try to have a better team this year than last, and to keep on building up. However, he says that he will do his best with the material at hand this year. There are few times in the conference who enter the season of 1922 with as good material as there was on hand in 1921. Chicago has lost Romney, McGuire, King, Crisler and Halliday. Iowa lost the Devine bro- thers, Slater and Belding. Locke the great fullback will return, however. Illinois loses Captain-elect Don Pe- den, as well as Walquist and Crangle, together with all the men who play- ed in the Carlinville game. Ohio loses Huffman and Myers, having one Work- man brother returning. It looks like Wisconsin will have the same great material they had last year, minus Sundt, Elliott and Bunge. However, Rollie Williams will captain the Badgers, Gus Tebell, premier end, will be back, and it is rumored that "Shorty" Barr, for three years quarter- back, will return. New Material, in- cluding Pearse at center, with Pollock and Nolte at guards and tackle, and "Kibo" Brumm, if he recovers from his automobile accident, will make the nucleus for a great line for Coach Richards. As Northwestern does not play Wisconsin, it would seem at this early stage of the game, that she enters the field in as good shape as any of the schools she tackles. A strict system of confining the school activities strictly to football for three months, it is hoped will bring the Purple school from the position near the cel- lar, which it has occupied for the past few years. Royal Arcanum News Winnetka council held its weenie- roast and meeting as scheduled last Monday on the beach at North ave. To say the least the affair was a suc- cess from all points, eats, meeting and all. Brother Clark was the cook of the evening, and hot dogs, corn, cof- fee, etc., were to be had galore, and to see Brother Clark hopping around you readily realized that the one- armed paper hanger with the hives had found a keen rival. Due thanks for the evening is due from the coun- cil to Brother Clark for his well-spent efforts. A meeting followed supper. A large membership was present and five members from Highland Park council, were present. Our next meeting will be held in Community House in our regular meeting place, probably the second or third Monday in September. nouncement by card later. An- | cago Tribune, regarding the fire at | the McIlvaine residence on WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 26, 1922 Municipal Column Edited by the Village Manager Mcllivaine Fire Facts-- In order to correct the numerous statements contained in the sensa- tional but fictitious front page report in the August 22 issue of the Chi- Green Bay Road, it is desired to present a brief statement of the real facts. The fire, which was caused probably by defective wiring, and not by thieves, was not discovered until it had gained considerable headway on the third floor. The fire department reached the building within four min- utes after the alarm was given and the quick response received consid- erable favorable comment. The fire was handled in an unusually effective manner by the department, the dam- age being confined to a small portion of the building, with a loss not exceed- in $3,000. Damage to contents by water was held to a minimum. No burglary whatever was committed and no call was sent in to the police department, The statements of the Tribune that the building was loot- ed and then destroyed by fire, that the police responded in a comman- deered car, and that the fire depart- ment took thirty minutes to reach the fire are therefore without founda- tion. No Bids on Hubbard Woods Paving-- The call for bids on the paving of Scott avenue, Asbury avenue, etc., in Hubbard Woods resulted in no ac- tion at a special meeting on Tuesday evening, August 22, held to facilitate the progress of the improvement. Be- cause of the impossibility of securing delivery of sand, gravel and cement, no contractor was willing to under- take to start the work at the present time. The Board decided to readver- tise in hope that conditions will be improved by the next meeting. Con- siderable doubt exists, however, as to the possibility of completing the work this Fall in any event, and as to the wisdom of disturbing the streets for drainage and grading unless the pavement can be laid before winter. Mother of Mrs. C. Happ Dies in Webster City, la. Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Happ, 300 Walnut ave., returned early this week from Webster City, Iowa, where they attended the funeral of Mrs. Happ's mother, Mrs. George R. Crosley, who died on August 17 following a Roger] ing illness. Mrs. Happ had been staying with | her mother for several weeks. Mr. Crosley returned to Winnetka to re- main at the Happ residence for some time. When Your Feet Tire When your feet tire, you feel tired all over. And when you feel tired all over you look tired.

Physi- cians say that headache, backache, ir- ritability and oter more serious troubles are caused by shoes that tilt your body out of balance. Cantilevers are not merely comfort- able; they are good looking. They are the type of shoes smart women wear with daytime costumes and with sports clothes. Slip your feet into a pair of Canti- levers. Learn the joy of wearing shoes that improve your circulation, increase your vigor and make you feel at your best.
