THE SILK SHOPS 1638 Orrington Avenue EVANSTON Black-W hite Grid Squad to Engage W yandottes Sunday The Winnetka Black & White foot- ball team last Sunday once more dealt out defeat to its opponents, this time being the well-known Chicago Kiwanis, who came to Winnetka boasting an extremely good slate. When the final whistle blew, the locals walked off with the best end of a 6-3 score. The game was just as close and in- teresting as the score indicates. The battle started with the Kiwanis taking the pigskin to the local's 20 yard line, where their march was checked to a halt. At this point, Capt. Wagner, of the visitors, stepped back and drop- kicked the oval between the goal posts, for their lone tallies. From this point until the last quar- ter, it was a battle, the visitors having a slight edge. However, as Michigan and Chicago had their grievances over the loss of their Gilbert and Rouse, likewise were the Black & Whites practically lost without the line ser- vices of Carlson, Dahl, Matson, and Waves Connor, who were out of the fray on account of injuries. Nevertheless. the spectators admitted the scrub line put up a stubborn de- fense against the much heavier line of the Kiwanis. At the start of the fourth quarter, the Kiwanis made an expensive mis- take by trying to run up a score on the locals through the aerial route. On one of these attempts, Flynn hurled his body into the air and made a spec- tacular interception. With only one man between him and the goal, he raced down the sideline for a touch- down, bringing back delightful mem- ories of the famous Grange. Cant. Martin failed in the attempt for the extra point. From this stage until the final whistle, the locals played a de- fensive game, finally stinging the city bovs with a 6-3 defeat. Football fans are invited to come out and see a fighting team in action, and see two of the best linemen, Con- nor and Jensen, in the Mid-West league perform. Next Sunday the Chicago Wyan- dottes invade the stronghold of the locals and are going to attempt to hold them from winning their sixth straight victory. Expert to Give Course on Camp Fire Movement (Contributed) Have you a daughter of Camp Fire age? Are you interested in girls? Miss Estelle Farley, Camp Fire field executive in the Chicago district, will put on a three weeks' Camp Fire course in Community House, beginning Monday, November 21. There will be two talks a week, each Monday and Thursday at 2 o'clock. While this is an onnortunity of heln- fulness to Camp Fire Guardians, it also offers to mothers of girls and friends of Camp Fire a chance to ac- quaint themselves with the things that Camp Fire stands for. and to better understand the appeal which it has for the growing girl. Miss Farley is well equipped for this work, having been a Camp Fire Girl, a Camp Fire Guardian and a district worker. It is hoped that many may take advantage of this opportunity. There is no charge for the course. AT CHURCH BANQUET Ernest Ballard, 811 Auburn road, was one of the speakers at the banquet held Monday evening, November 7, at the Auditorium hotel. The dinner was sponsored bv clergv, wardens, and vestrvmen of the Enisconal church. Charles D. Dallas. 1124 Pine street, president of the Church club, presided at the meeting.
