WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1921 INAUGURATE DRAMATIC SEASON OCT.14 AND 15 North Shore Players Now in Re- hearsal For Three One-Act Per- formances To Be Given On Those Days The Wilmette Woman's club will be the scene, Friday and Saturday, October 14 and 15, the time of the formal opening of the amateur dramatic season on the north shore when the North Shore Players will present three one-act plays which 'promise to be of exceptional interest to New Trier play-goers. "Where But in America?", "The Storm", and "The Potboilers" are the vehicles to be offered by the amateur stars in the opening performance re- hearsals for which are now well un- derway. The players, headed by Ralph Bell- | amy, celebrated amateur star, are in- terested in the so-called Little Theater Movement which has as its purpose the presentation of wholesome, worth- while plays designed to offset the modern tendency in the theaters to- ward: cheap, trashy shows which have turned the play-going public from its former attachment to genuine drama- tic art. Cast of Artists Every member of the players cast is an artist in his own name, all having achieved distinction in amateur dramatic circles, and several having won renown in the ranks of the pro- fessionals. Under the expert direction of Ells- worth Taylor, who recently completed a course in that special work, the fol- lowing artists are appearing in the casts: Miss Gloria Chandler, Miss Eli- zabeth Duffy, Miss Catherine Crush, Miss Mary Ricksen, Ralph Bellamy, Gordon Canning, Harlan Ware, Jack Gibson and Everett Fox. Poultry Fryers, Broilers, Boilers, Squabs--all fresh and killed and dressed to order. MRS.

GIRLS RAISE FUNDS FOR NEW TRIER SCHOLARSHIP Members of the New Trier Town- ship High school Girls' Club devised an ingenious money-raising scheme at the opening of school a fortnight ago when thep maintained a sandwich and coffee booth during the registra- tion period. One hundred dollars was netted for the Club fund which, when it reaches the three hundred dollar mark, will go toward a Scholarship Fund the club is planning to establish. AIR RIFLE SHOT STRIKES BOY'S EYELID, MISSES EYE Twelve vear old Willis Littel, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Littell, 322 Wood- stock avenue, Kenilworth, had a miraculous escape from serious in- jury Tuesday evening when a shot from an air rifle in the hands of a playmate struck his eyelid just graz- ing the eyeball. An X-ray examination Wednesday disclosed no injury and that the shot had not lodged in the boy's head. Announcement is made of the mar- riage on Wednesday evening, Septem- ber 28, of the marriage of Miss Mary Ricksen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Ricksen of Wilmette, to Mr. Richard W. Goodspeed. Goes East To School On Trusty Motorcycle Paul B. Goble Makes Trip from Win- netka to Boston to Enter Mass- achusetts College When Paul B. Goble, 511 Ash street, went to school at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology this month, he ignored the comforts attendant up- on Pullman travel but negotiated the route, instead, on his trusty Hender- son motorcycle. The trip from Winnetka to Boston was completed almost without mis- hap over some of the finest roads in the United States. The course lay over roads connecting Chicago, In- dianapolis, Columbus, Wheeling, Phil- adelphia, New York and Boston. Goble's baggage was hung over the back wheel and at the sides of the ma- chine in a carrier provided for the purpose. Most of the journey was over the Old National Trail route.
