W.'s Tomorrow | Two hundred and fifty people gath- | ered at Skokie Playfield last Sunday to witness their favorite football team, | the Black and White eleven, tame the | Orioles. It appears, however, that a mistake had been made in announcing the schedule, and instead of the Orioles having been booked for last Sunday's game, it was the Cornells, another popular Chicago team. To further complicate matters the Cornells failed to put in an appear- ance, much to the disappointment of the enthusiastic fans, who were all set for an exciting game. The weather was ideal, the field was never in better | condition, and Manager Merrill's "Hus- | kies" were "rarin' to go. When it was would not be learned the Cornells there, the Black and | White players put on a practice game, The Orioles, who are scheduled for tomorrow, will be on hand, it is said, when one of the best games of the season is anticipated.

It is located on the south side of Deerfield road, at the tracks, and com prises four 20,000 gallon tanks, afford ing a total storage capacity of 80,000 gallons. This, in reality, is only the first unit of what Braun Brothers contem plates for Highland Park. When completed, the plant will have a stor- age capacity of approximately 200,000 gallons. Carl Braun is in charge of the office at this plant. The company also has a plant of this type at Northfield, west of Win netka. The capacity here is 130,000 gallons and this plant, like the new one at Highland Park, is equipped with modern pumps and complete machinery for handling the fuel oil product in the most advantageous manner. Eight huge tank trucks are utilized in distributing oil to patrons of the company, over a territory now extend ing from Evanston on the south to Lake Forest on the north and from the lake as far west as Milwaukee ave- nue. The truck tanks are provided with every known device for handling this commodity, including special equipment for washing and cleaning tanks, or to prepare a tank in which heavy oil has been stored for the reception of a lighter fuel. Braun Brothers carry various grades of fuel oil, about six in number. Two of their truck tanks are espe- cially equipped with a hose line of 100 feet through which oil may be pumped into the smaller basement storage tanks of the 200 gallon type, while the truck remains standing in the street, at the curb. The fuel oil business has kept pace with building development on the north shore which has characterized this section in recent years, and Braun Brothers Oil company has kept one jump ahead in opportunity To grow in its line.
