Want Rule Retained Harold D. Hill, of the firm of Hill & Stone, felt the present zoning con- ditions should remain as they are. His firm, he said, handles the E. C. Wei- senberg apartment building and want- ed it strictly understood there are no "fly by night" families in the building. Many young families move into an apartment while they are getting a start, Mr. Hill said, and, often, they later become the home owners in the village. He said he thought the "C" Commercial zoning in Winnetka should remain as it is, and consider apart- ments, as the zoning ordinance now provides, a necessity. E. P. Maynard also defended the | present zoning stipulations and asserted that those who are un- equivocally opposed to apartments are laboring under a misapprehension. Winnetka apartments, he declared, at- tracted a thoroughly substantial and home-loving type of dwellers. John Odh, who isin the upholstering business in Hubbard Woods, said he is in favor of the present ordinance relative to "C" Commercial zoning, providing for stores on the first floor with two-story apartments above, aad felt that it should remain'that way. Carlton Prouty, Eugene Rummler, a former president of the village, Robert H. Wallace and J. D. Austin also spoke, the latter correcting a _state- ment made to the effect that Glencoe does not permit apartment buildings. A building permit has been issued for another large three-story store aad apartment building to be erected on Vernon avenue, as soon as the pro- posed Vernon avenue widening plans are completed.

WINNETKA 313 di i ED GAA Ba ih Fug: 8 Add SARG'S MARIONETTES IN PLAY NEXT WEEK Present Pot Pourri Revue Pro- duction at Skokie School December 8 Tony Sarg's marionettes will make their annual visit to the north shore, soon, playing afternoon and evening engagements at Wilmette, December 5; Highland Park, December 6; Winnet- ka, December 8, and Evanston, Decem- ber 9. With the exception of the evening entertainment at the Wilmette Mason- ic temple, when "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves" will be given, the little wooden-headed actors will present "A Marionette's Dream" with "The Three Wishes," a puppet version of the popu- lar Grimm's fairy tale, as an added attraction. Pot Pourri Program In casting about for a program that would introduce his animated dolls to the best advantage, Mr. Sarg, the pup- pet king, hit on a unique idea. This was the presentation of a grand revue or pot pourri of his successes of past years, all strung together in a connect- ed production, the most elaborate extravaganza ever seen on any minia- ture stage. The revue will introduce Rip Van Winkle and his faithful dog; Don Quixote and his squire, Sancho Panza; their chargers, Rosinante and Dapple; Jim Hawkins of "Treasure Island" fame; Billy Bones, Black Dog, John Silver and the rest of the crew of the pirate ship that went adventuring to Skeleton Island. Play in Four Towns In "Ali Baba" one will meet not only the poor woodcutter of Bagdad, but Scherherazade, princess of story teller; Sinbad the Sailor; the flying horse; Cassim, Ali Baba's wicked brother; Danhasch, leader of the villainous thieves; Morgiana, the pretty slave girl, and a whole menagerie of camels, elephants, donkeys, sheep, cats and dogs. The marionettes will play in the Skokie school, Winnetka, and at the Women's club auditorium in Evanston and at the Elm place school, Highland Park. High School Radio Club Will Dispatch Your Radio Message The New Trier High school Radio club wishes the residents of New Trier township to know of the service the club is equipped to give in dispatch- ing messages. Commercial radiograms are very expensive, but the Radio club, in affiliation with the National Ama- teur Radio league will send messages free of charge. Messages accepted are for distances more than 300 miles, and should be about twenty-five words. The various members of the Radio league are competing to determine which group can relay messages the greatest number of miles. Therefore, in taking advantage of this offer the residents are helping the New Trier Radio club, as well as benefiting them- selves. All messages should be put in the box of the Radio club in the main office of New Trier High school, with name, address, and telephone attached. Mrs. Francis E. Sammons of 1026 Asbury avenue, Evanston, entertained her E. O. T. bridge club, of which several of the members are Wilmette women, at her home last Tuesday afternoon. Luncheon was served be- fore play was started.
