6 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1925 Winnetka Beats Drexel Nine in Overtime Game Winnetka A. C's came through in the eleventh inning of their game with the fast Drexel Maroons of Chicago, last Sunday emerging with a 12 to 11 triumph. The game was featured by heavy stick work with Palletti, "Spike" and Burmeister leading the procession. It was Winnetka's third straight vic- tory. Winnetka's winning tally resulted from a pass to Smith, his theft of sec- ond base and romp over the platter on a single by "Spike." The visitors had knotted the count in the ninth frame. This Sunday afternoon the locals meet the powerful Silverdales of Chi- cago. The game is called for 3:15 o'clock at Playfield. Local Women Interested in Child Training Course Several local women, it is said, are interested in the courses in child nur- ture given under auspices of the Na- tional Kindergarten and Elementary college and which opened at the col- lege Monday of this week. During the six weeks of the course there will be study in child hygiene, child psychology, essentials of speech, early childhood education, religious education and kindred subjects. A kindergarten for children from 2 to 4 years of age, is also being conducted at the school in conjunction with the courses for mothers, patterned after the famous English nursery schools. White Poodle Wanders; Now Awaits Its Owner Who lost the white poodle? Someone in Wilmette has lost a pet and can find it at the W. H. Fisher kennels, located on Waukegan road about a mile and a half north of Glen- view. Early this week the driver of an ice wagon in the village noticed a small white poodle following his wagon. He attempted to frighten it away, but it continued to follow him. When he arrived at Fisher's kennels the dog was captured and placed in Fisher's care. It will be returned to the owner upon proper identification. Baptist Pastor Attends Denominational Meeting Rev. Francis C. Stifler, pastor of the Wilmette Baptist church, left Thurs- day for Seattle, Wash., where he will attend the sessions of the northern Baptist convention.

E. J. Moberg, the diver in charge of the raising of the old craft, home of the Buccaneer's club, ex- pressed the opinion that the ship would be raised by the first of the week. The work of raising it has been going on for some time and the hull has been made as water-tight as possible, but the only available pumps were not sufficiently strong to overcome the in- rush of water and raise the craft. Ad- ditional pumps were expected to arrive today. Miss Marigold Langworthy was hostess at luncheon and bridge at her home on Bryant avenue Thursday, in honor of her cousin, Miss Benita Spencer of California, who is her house guest. --C-- The special sewing committee for the Eastern Star bazaar will have an all- day meeting at the home of Mrs. Ferdi- nand Wolter, Jr., 1377 Scott avenue, Tuesday, June 30.
