June 23, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 7 Northwestern Student Naval Officers Leave on Cruise to Halifax Fifty-five young men, student offic- ers of the Northwestern Naval unit, left Evanston at 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, June 19, for Boston, Mass., for a two weeks' naval cruise. All expenses for the trip are paid by the Navy department. The students will board the battle- ship "Wyoming" at Boston and imme- diately proceed to Halifax," Nova Scotia. After a three day visit at that port they will proceed to Portland, Me., for a three day visit before re- turning to Boston on July 4. They will leave the "Wyoming" on July 5 when they will be furnished sufficient funds for the return trip to Evanston, which trip they will be allowed to make at their convenience. This cruise is in the nature of a re- ward for their work in the course of naval science and tactics during the past year, and will give them an op- portunity to observe in actual practice some of the things about which they have been studying. During the cruise they will be under the supervision of officers of the regular Navy and trained in the duties of junior officers. This training will include the opera- tion and actual firing of the 5-inch guns of the "Wyoming." Gains Honorable Mention for Swat-the-Fly Poster Elizabeth Epp, daughter of Mrs. Anna Epp, of Locust road, was given honorable mention in the recent Cook county health poster contest spon- sored by the Chicago Tuberculosis in- stitute. More than one hundred con- testants were entered in the contest, which was for seventh and eighth grade pupils in Cook county schools. The poster made by Elizabeth Epp had as its chief feature the picture of an enormous fly with the words "Swat! Swat! Swat!" in large letters under- neath. The poster was on display at the Chicago Tuberculosis offices at 360 N. Michigan avenue.

Last year 227,758 Canadian motorists toured in the United States. In 1928 this to- tal is expected to be lifted to half a million.
