T47-1te New Trier Cagers Win From Evanston, Morton New Trier High school cagers made a clean sweep last week-end when they trimmed three Evanston teams on their own floor and two Morton teams at New Trier. The Morton lightweights, last year's champions, were beaten by a score of 23 to 8. New Trier"s freshman-sophomore teams started the ball rolling by win- ning from the Evanston team 17 to 12. The lightweight game, which was a little slow, was won by a score of 27- 9 by New Trier. Evanston was ob- viously outclassed from the start. The heavyweight game was a real fight, the teams being pretty evenly matched and the New Trier boys only won by a score of 14-11. The Morton teams were faster and put up a better fight but they were eventually sent home beaten by the victorious green and gray. The heavy- weight game was a hard fought con- test but the final game ended to find the north shore quintet leading by a score of 22-15. The New Trier stars of the various games were John Shel- don, Joe Palleti, Richards and Mulvey. REBEKAHS GIVE DANCE Wilmette Rebekah lodge No. 610, R.O.0.F. announces a masquerade ball Saturday evening, February 14, in Odd Fellows hall, Wilmette. There are to be several prize awards. EXPERTS STUDY EYE PROBLEMS Local Man Attends Opto- metrists' Session Sunday, Monday and Tuesday of last week the Optometrists of Illinois held their annual convention at the Sherman hotel, concluding with a banquet and entertainment. Dr. O. H. Bersch, 1177 Wilmette avenue, Wilmette, attended the sessions. The feature of the convention, accord- ing to Dr. Bersch, was the free clinic conducted on Monday and Tuesday by Dr. Sheffington, chief clinician of the National Association of Optometrists. Children from two years up, afflicted with crossed eyes, formed the largest group of cases examined, while the adults, in most instances, were the type of cases that had drifted from one place to another "buying glasses," but were unable to wear them or still suffered from eye strain. In most of these cases a single examination would not suffice to prescribe glasses for perma- nent wear, therefore, the patient was referred to one of a number of doctors who volunteered to follow up the work started by Dr. Sheffington. Unfor- tunately, all of those presenting them- selves for examination could not be cared for. The lectures, says Dr. Bersch, were unusually good and the matter of safety in driving was particularly discussed. The prevalence of eye strain and poor visiom makes at least one out of every five drivers a menace to life and prop- erty, it was asserted. Laws have al- ready been enacted or have been pro- posed in several states making a vision and color test compulsory before a li- cense will be granted to drivers. Such a law, it was stated, will be proposed for Illinois. Motor Club Opposes Proposed Gasoline Tax An attack on the proposal of some Illinois legislators to put through a gasoline tax law was delivered by Charles M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor club before 17,000 motorists assembled for the annual meeting of the club at the Coliseum, Chicago, Thursday, January 15. Mr. Hayes declared that the club had sup- ported all good roads movements in the state but believed that good roads should be secured by means of the state license fees. Thomas P. Henry, president of the American Automobile association, said that the boys' patrol such as is at present guarding the school children of Chicago, is one of the most effec- tive agencies in existence for the sav- ing of lives. He promised the support of the American Automobile associa- tion and its 600 automobile _lubs in making this a national movement. Five boys of the school boys' patrol of Chicago were introduced at the meet- ing. The meeting marked the en- trance of the Chicago Motor club in- to its nineteenth year of motoring service. Charles H. Hayes was elect- ed president of the club, which he started to serve 13 years ago when it numbered but a few hundred mem- bers. It now has more than 40,000. With Mr. Hayes the following officers and directors were elected. Frank E. Jack, vice-president; J. J. Cava- nagh, secretary; Charles H. Touzalin, treasurer; H. M. Brown, Dr. W. E. Buehler, Montie Conklin, Charles R. Hall, W. C. Kirby, R. T. Forbes, Sid- ney S. Gorham and F. C. Stagg, di- rectors. ? Offer Red Cross Health Course for Prep Girls New Trier high school will have a Red Cross course for girls in home hygiene this next semester. The class will be started some time in February and will be under the direction of Mrs. M. Simonson and under the super- vision of Dr. Frank W. Blatchford of Winnetka. The course is planned not only to teach a girl how to keep in good health, but, in case of illness, what to do before the doctor comes or when a trained nurse is not available. It will include how to interpret indications of disease, how to take temperature, pulse and respiration; how to make a bed with a patient in it and prevention of contagious diseases. More than 18,000 women and girls have taken this work under Chicago chapter instruc- tors. MASONS IN "GET-TOGETHER" Wilmette Chapter, No. 253, Royal Arch Masons, is to hold the first of a series of monthly dinners and get- together meetings at Chapter hall, 1159 Wilmette avenue this evening. The dinner will be served by the women of the Wilmette Chapter of the Eastern Star.
