Dodge "Brothers showed a 25.4 per cent gain in sales during 1924 in the 'ace of a general decline of 9.4 per cent in the industry. it is also a note- worthy fact that Dodge Brothers were the only one of the four leading motor ar manufacturers in the world who showed an increase over 1923. Indicative of the present trend to- ward an even greater year in 1925 is were considerably in excess of the same month for 1924.

It doesn't amount to very much per room and it is May Have Chance for State Tournament Buy Your This coming week will see the big athletic event of the year for the local high schools--the district basketball tournament, which is to be held in the gymnasium of Deerfield-Shields Town- ship high school at Highland Park, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The winner of this meet will go to Joliet for the sectional match, and the win- ner of the sectional tournament will compete in the state tournament, and after that there may be a national tournament--who knows? New Trier basketball men are hard at work perfecting themselves for Friday's game, when they will play Morton. They hope to retrieve some of their lost hopes in the district meet. The line-up of the team has been con- siderably changed for this occasion. 'Lights' Look Good Captain Mickey Emrich of the light- weights will be playing at center, and Fred Schmidt, another one of the sub- urban champions, will play a forward. Rand, who also could have played on the lighter team, and who made the suburban first team, will manage the other forward position. This makes an exceptionally fast attack and a doubly dangerous one because all the forwards are dead shots. Agate Martin, the heavyweight cap- tain, will take one of the guard posi- tions, and with his fast dribbling and uncanny eye for long shots will be dan- gerous at all times. The other guard will be Frank Arnold, as a matter of course. He is the long fellow whe recovers the ball so often, and who keeps the enemy from sinking any short shots. Those who have seen this combination working together say that they look like champions, and those who have seen them play individually can imagine that they are certainly worth backing. Dope Favors Locals New Trier fans have doped the re- sults of the tournament thus-wise: They expect to beat Morton, after which they expect to meet and van- quish Deerfield in the second round. Then, as they dope it, comes their hard game--Hinsdale. After they have trimmed Hinsdale they may have to meet Evanston and Waukegan. Whether this dope is correct or other- wise will be known by next Saturday night. The complete schedule of games is as follows: , Thursday 1, 2 P.M. Waukegan vs. Plaines. Libertyville vs. Ar- lington Heights. Game Des- Game 1, 3P.M. tary and assistant treasurer; R. J. Fry, assistant secretary. The following continue as members of the board of directors: Mr. Haynes, Mr. Waterfall, Mr. Ballantyne, Mr. Popeney, and Russel Huff. Mr. Huff 's director of engineering. Records of the annual meeting con- firmed previous reports that 1924 was by far the most successful year in Dodge Brothers' history. Dodge Broth- ers were second among N. A. C. C. members and third in the industry as a whole, both in the number of units produced and in money volume. The year closed with a total produc- tion of 225,633 motor vehicles having a total value of nearly $200,000,000.

New Trier Orchestra to Compete in Tournament Preliminary contests for high school orchestras in the City and Suburban leagues will be held early in April this year and the New Trier high school orchestra is already hard at work on its numbers. The list of competing schools is di- vided into two groups, Section A in- cluding those having 2,000 or more students, and Section B those with less than 2,000 students. After the preliminary contests, which will decide the best orchestra in each group, the winner will compete in the final contests at Orchestra hall in Chi- cago. These finals will be held some- time in May. The judges will be chosen from among the orchestra leaders of the dif- ferent schools and will include the music critic of some Chicago news- paper.
