Wilmette Man Rescues Companion from Cave-in Bernard Doepp, of Wilmette, saved a fellow workman from probable death when sand caved in upon both the men while they were digging a sewer at Asbury avenue and Oakton street, Evanston, last Wednesday afternoon. The man rescued was Tony Alphonse, 1518 Brown avenue, Evanston. He was buried under 15 feet of sand when the cave-in occurred. Doepp, who was only buried up to his shoulders, managed to get out, and by frantic digging he reached Alphonse, who was unconscious. He was latter revived and proved to be unharmed by his experience. Police and fire depart- ments arrived just as the man was being rescued. New Trier Celebrates Homecoming Saturday Saturday, November 7, will be Homecoming Day for New Trier high school. There will be a football game with Waukegan on the New Trier field at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and in the morning there will be a parade, with many floats which have been prepared by the various adviser rooms of the school. Many of the alumni are expected back and it is thought that the seating capacity at fhe football field will be taxed to the imit.

He met his sister, Miss Bernice Bulley, who came on from Wellesley for the event. Noted Woman Journalist Speaks Before Students Mrs. Genevieve Forbes Herrick, of the Chicago Tribune, addressed sev- eral groups at New Trier High school last Thursday. Before two sociology classes the subject of her talk was the problem of handling immigrants. Sev- eral years ago Mrs. Herrick, then Miss Genevieve Forbes, "scooped the world" by a secret trip to Ireland, from where she returned in the steer- age, passing herself off for an immi- grant. She then wrote a series of articles about her experiences on the boat, and especially at Ellis Island, which caused federal investigation and a huge stir all over the country, so her information was authentic and first hand. Mrs. Herrick also gave an impromptu talk before R. H. Carpen- ter's journalism class.
