WINNETKA WEFKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1923 3: LOCAL GRIDDERS START PRACTICE Skokie Eleven Prepared to Meet All Comers The first try-out for football at the Skokie school reveals the fact that there are over 45 boys out for the sport and the average weight in the line is greater than it has ever been since Coach Clark has been the director. Just how many teams will be formed this season, is as yet undecided, but the general belief has been expressed that Skokie will be well represented when the whistle blows for the first "tilt." The terms are all classified according to weight and the competition is limited to the "games with the North Shore Country Day school. As has been the custom in the past, the undisputed cham- pions on the football field will be awarded initial letters. The same is true in basketball and baseball. ; The girls' athletics will be handled in much the same manner as the boys ex- cept that the feminine sports are limited to basketball and baseball.

Next Friday brings the movies back to Winnetka. * Community House announces the re- sumption of its weekly Motion Picture programs that have proved so popular through the past several years,--pro- grams of great merit with show- ing of only first run pictures for the 1923-24 season. y The picture for Friday, September 28, is "The Top of New York," starring May McAvoy. ; "If you would learn of the lives of | the Fast Side New Yorkers, to whom' the flat top of their tenement house is as much a haven as is the open country to .those folks who can afford to go there," reads an announcement of the film, "if you would learn of their loves and hopes and despairs and temptations, then see The Top of New York, a Para- mount picture that tells a beautiful story simply and directly." Local Women to Attend County W. C. T. U. Session The twenty-second annual conven- tion of the Cook County W. C. T. U. will be held in the First Presbyterian church, Oak Park, Wednesday and Thursday, September 26 and 27. Many local members of the organization! are expected to attend the meetings. Morning sessions of the conven-' tion will commence at 10 o'clock when business meetings will be held and reports heard. In the afternoons there will be addresses by Rev. J. R. Beveridge and Mrs. Jennie L. Kemp. Winnetka women who desire to at- tend the convention are asked to meet at the Elm street station of the Chicago, North Shore and Mil- waukee Electric railway promptly at 8:30 A. M. To Canada and Return in 3 Days Some Jaunt To Canada and back in three days, is the latest record on file and that was chalked up by a Ford. The machine was piloted by C. A. Thorsen of the Kenilworth Motor company. Other mem- bers of" the "party were Mrs. Thorsen and Mr. and Mrs. Clement Ley, who are also of Kenilworth. They left last Friday morning at 10 o'clock and were back again at 11:30 o'clock Sunday evening. Mr. Levy is accustomed to rapid travel, being Kenilworth's one and only speed cop. CONCERT OCTOBER 15 (Continued from page 1) evening concerts, the minimum to ap- pear being 35. The character of the programs will not differ materially from those of last season. On perhaps two occa- sions the entire program will be given by the orchestra alone and without an assisting soloist. At least there will be no soloist for the first con- cert. But it is planned to have as- sisting artists on five nights. It is expected that these artists will in- clude a pianist, a violinist, a cellist and two vocalists. In view of the fact that the December concerts falls close to Christmas, it is probable the program on that evening will consist of music appropriate to the season. Old subscribers who have renewed their subscriptions for the season will be interested to know that bills will be mailed to them for the price of their tickets next week. These state- ments will specify the date for pay- ment and will also warn the sub- scribers that delay of payment after that date will mean forfeiture of their subscription rights. The billing for children's matinees will be made at a later date. In both cases season tickets will be mailed direct to sub- scribers after their payments. Last year the committee tried to act as a clearing house for subscribers who on certain evenings could not use their tickets and wished to sell them. This year it is hoped it can be arranged so that all inquiries on such matters can be referred to one per- son, but under restrictions. Tickets perhaps can be turned in to at one point but any such will be sold for the additional benefit of the associa- tion and not for individual ticket- holders, because it involves too much work and accounting. ORRINGTON HOTEL IN FORMAL OPENING (Continued from page 1) the builder, and the determination to provide north shore folk with an apart- ment home that is at once luxurious and home-like. The fondest visions of the most cynical tenant have been than realized in The Orrington. True Revelation Two months ago a representative of The Lake Shore News tumbled and stumbled through The Orrington. This week that same person trod noiselessly through richly carpeted corridors and peered into apartments that were models of the designer's art. The same course was followed in both journeys and this week's "tour" was indeed a revelation. The Orrington has been described in varied detail. It is magnificent, a truly great institution, as a glance into the "lower regions" of cooling plant, bak- eries, laundries and other utilities will indicate, The Orrington has one employe for every guest Its service is plainly ap- parent to the most casual observer. The excellence of its cuisine already has tax- ed the facilities of that beautiful Italian dining hall and adjoining chocolate shop. The present occupancy of The Orring- more ton is now about 70 per cent. Ninety-. seven per cent of the families are from' Evanston and north shore communities.' Saturday, September 22, is the date of the formal opening. Residents of the north shore will be well rewarded in devoting some time to an inspection of this home-like palace.
