June 16, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 51 Pears Like Smith Is Being Razzed a Bit in This Yarn (Contributed) The Spruce street baseball team add- ed the Triangle club's All-Winnetka team to their list of challengers last Tuesday when the Spruce tribe handed them an 11-5 set-back. The game was a closely contested and hard- fought affair from start to finish. The victors went right out in the first few innings and got most of their runs, so Luchessi was able to take it easy and coast to victory. The Triangle club stars made a valiant attempt to tie the score in the last inning when they sent three men over the plate. The score might have been a little closer had not Connor hit into a double killing with all the cor- ners occupied and no outs. With the sole intention of stopping the winning streak of the Gangsters, the Triangle club imorted "Rat" Smith to do the hurling for them. Smith, who got too good for the Winnetka outfit in previous years and' left their ranks to be the ace for Wilmette, is pitching for the Northwestern Dental school where he has hung up quite an enviable record. However, it was very evident that he has not met any real opposition, for the victors got to him from the first inning, and put enough runs over to win and then coasted Winnetka Students Have Part in Music Recital Two recitals by students of the Highland Park Music school, Ethel Lathrop Marley, director, were given Friday and Saturday of last week at Trinity Episcopal church in Highland Park.
