The Winnetka League of Women Voters congratulates the Kenilworth League of Women Voters on the win- ning of the Izaak Walton League flag. The League is most happy over the fact that in every village in New Trier township the voting percentage has nearly doubled since the first contest over the flag two years ago. The contest will be open again at the presidential election in November. The Winnetka League asks for the co- operation of every Winnetka voter in order that the flag may be brought back to Winnetka. Due to the great diffrence in population between Kenil- worth and Winnetka this will mean real work for the residents of Win- netka. New Trier Girls Compete in U. of C. Examinations Friday, May 11, three New Trier senior girls went to the University of Chicago to compete in the Competitive Scholarship examinations held there. The girls were Miss Ingeborg Lincoln, Miss Elizabeth Sandford, and Miss Virginia Pearson. ° Although none of the girls was fortunate enough to win a scholarship, competition being keen, they all felt that the experience was very interest- ing. After the examinations, which lasted during the morning, luncheon was served at Ida Noyes hall followed by a tour of the campus. In the after- noon entertainment was furnished and the awards were announced at dinner.
