GUY MAIER IN CONCERT HERE Famous American Pianist to Be Heard at New Trier Hall, March 5 ORCHESTRA BENEFIT Program Designed to Inter- est Young and Old Guy Maier, American pianist, is to appear in concert at New Trier Town- ship High school Wednesday after- noon, March 5, which is to be in the nature of a benefit for the High school orchestra. Mr. Maier is best known in Chi- Guy Maier cago through his association with Mr. Lee Pattison in their two-piano per- formances. They have appeared for three consecutive seasons with the Chicago Symphony orchestra, the last time being a week ago when, with Mr. Arthur Shattuck, they played a Bach concerto written for three pianos. "Mr. Maier," say those who are sponsoring the New Trier concert, "is not only a brilliant pianist, but his programs for young people and chil- dren stand in a class by themselves. These concerts are so popular in east- ern cities that the demand for tickets exceeds the seating capacity of even the larger auditoriums. Mr. Maier says these programs are for children up to 80 years of age. His story-telling gift which is both verbal and pianistic transports both young and old to the land of dreams come true." All the proceeds from this concert, above expenses, will be given to the New Trier High school orchestra. Tickets Going Fast Tickets are being sold rapidly so that in order to obtain seats it is ad- visable to secure tickets within the next few days, it is said.

HERE'S A HINT ON BATTERIES Abel Gives Some Advice on Charging A great deal has been said, accord- ing to Mr. U. C. Abel of the Winnetka Exide Service station, about the dangers of overcharging an automo- bile battery, but the fact is that there is much more damage actually caused by undercharging. "The ideal conditions under which a battery should be operated," said Mr. U. C. Abel, "are those in which the input of current from the generator fully compensates for the amount of current consumed in starting, light- WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1924 5 ed up by an expert, regardless of how |] m---- long or short a time he has had his -- car.
