Hubbard Woods | Public Forum On awakening at dawn this morn- ing I had a real thrill. Among the bird chorus, which performed every morn- a | ing in my yard, I heard a new note, that of the whippoorwill. Lest I might be dreaming, with ear attuned I waited to hear that call, and sure enough it was Mr. Whippoorwill, twice in close proximity to my window and a little later over the open spaces of Indian Hill golf grounds. This is my first ex- perience with this rare visitor on the north shore. Three years ago this July at Coloma, Michigan, near the lake, each evening on the stroke of 8, one came to the coping of the back entry of the farmhouse and through the dusk I had my first acquaintance with this rather odd looking visitor. His call was insistent, each note trip- ping over the other. If one were walking after nightfall this bird would dart swiftly before him close to the ground, This adds one more to the list of feathered friends that come be- cause fresh water and food are always where birds can find them. TI left this jingle in the house guest book at Coloma. In the early morn, when the sun comes up, The Bob White calls from a road-side stump. At the hour of noon, when the sun is high, A bluebird darts athwart the sky. Over the hills, tho' not far away, The whippoorwill sings at the close of day. Songs of birds and lapping of waves Fill hours with joy these July oy Community Drama Players Will Perform at Goodman (Contributed) Get your tickets for the Goodman theater play next week! Contest of 16 amateur groups is held during four afternoons--Monday, Tuesday, Wed- nesday, Thursday, May 7, 8 9, 10. Be sure and go Wednesday, May 9, when the Winnetka Community Drama club is on the bill. Only one hundred tickets are allotted the Drama club, but they are available as long as they last for just two-thirds the price at the door, which is also less than the regular Goodman price. Tickets may be secured from Mrs. Alfred Freeman, Mrs. Carrie Prouty, or from any member of the Community Drama club. The following list of groups com- peting in the Little Theater Play tournament is given: The Barnstorm- ers, Wilmette; The Barnum Players; The Carjon Players, Austin; The Bell Telephone Players; Chicago Theolog- ical Seminary Players; Cloister Mum- mers : Community Players of Win- netka; Englewood Players; North- western Settlement Players; Play Shop Players of N. U.; Playwrights Theater; Ravenswood Players ; Renais- sance Players; Threshold Players of Glencoe; Union League Foundation Club for Boys; Uptown Players. The finals come Sunday evening, May 13, at 8. The four winning plays of the preceding matinees will then compete for the Drama League cup, and $75 will be given each of the four play groups reaching the finals. Come and cheer on the home players, Wed- nesday, May 9, at 2:15 p. m. The Win- netka women who wish to go in a body should meet at the North Shore Winnetka station in time for the 1:59 car.
