Niles Center made a substan- tial gain of 240 percent, La Grange a gain of 166 percent, while Whiting, with a small volume, made a gain of 526 percent. The traditional rivals, Evanston and Oak Park, both sustained losses al- though Evanston's loss for the month was far larger than that of Oak Park.
