BUEN cS 34 WINNETKA TALK August 14, 1926 WILMETTE GOLF CLUB PLANS BIG "POWWOW" Big "Hunt" by "Wilmette In- dians" Is Scheduled for Mem- bers and Guests August 18 Golf, more golf, setting up exercises, dinner and entertainment, sixty-four prizes, eighteen holes in the morning and nineteen holes in the afternoon, special guest prizes, what more do you want? All this will take place at the Wilmette Golf club, when the "tribe of Wilmette Indians" with representa- tives of other "tribes" will gather for their annual Pow Wow Wednesday, August 18. After 7 a. m. starting at five minute intervals from the first and tenth tees, the "plains" will be dotted with mighty 'hunters" in groups of four, chasing the wary and elusive golf ball. The course will be closed on that day to all but the hunters and their weapon bearers, (who are to be sup- plied without charge.) Each Wilmette "Indian" is expected to have with him as friend or enemy one member of another "tribe," and, because of the large anticipated attendance, only one. Resume After Mid-day After the mid-day refreshments the "hunt" will be resumed following the order of the morning round--so that the earlier you start in the morning the quicker you reach the thirty- seventh hole, haven of rest, congratu- lations, sympathy, or what have you, they explain. There will be two prizes for mem- bers only, for low gross on each eigh- teen and for the thirty-six holes. There will be six more prizes for members for low net on the same basis. There will be twelve similar prizes for guests. There will also be ten sets of prizes for low net foursome play. In addition, for those desiring to en- ter, will be held a special "Tribe of Four" Sweepstake. The day will close with the big Pow Wow dinner and entertainment, in- cluding the awarding of the prizes. "Be not among those who will say afterwards '1 wish I had been there' but invite your guest and mail appli- cation with check now," reads an an- nouncement. Mrs. Maurice Leigh, 513 Walnut street, as chairman of the East Elm street circle was in charge of the day, and was assisted by Mrs. John Leon- ard Hamilton, 412 Walnut street; Mrs. James Clipper, 556 Cherry street; Mrs. John C. Cobb, 615 Elm street; Mrs. Ingo A. Esch, 656 Sheridan road; Mrs. Wyndham H. Channer, 562 Cherry street; and Mrs. C. S. Ostrom, 566 Cedar street. -- Mr. and Mrs. H. L.

LAC GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION CADILLAC MOTOR CAR COMPANY, Evanston Branch 1810 Ridge Avenue, Evanston--University 8600 Flat Tire Brings Woe to Boys Who "Bought" a Chevvy Teddy Abromovitz residing on Lo- cust road west of Wilmette, and who says he is 19; Fred Obert, 16, of 2327 Church street, Evanston, and Mike Doyle, 18, also of Evanston, residing at 1811 Dempster street, made a seri- ous mistake in their get-a-way plans when they stopped in Hubbard Woods to change a tire on a Chevrolet sedan. Patrolman Ed. Cummings, of the Winnetka police department saw the boys at work on the car and became suspicious that all was not right. "What you think you're doin'? Abromovitz asked the officer when he came to look on. "Checking up on you," the officer replied. "Nothing wrong with this bus," Abromovitz retorted. There probably wasn't anything wrong with the "bus," other than the deflated tire, and Abromovitz displayed a bill of sale for the car made out to him by Obert. Later the boys said they had pur- | chased the car on August 9, from J. F. Rychalski, of 1208 Chicago avenue, Evanston, a used car dealer. Rychalski, when communicated with, referred to his records and said he had such a car, engine number, license number and all, in his yards, a car he recently had purchased. But when he came to look, the car was gone, and he hadn't sold it either.
