THE RADIO SERVICE SHOP 18 Prouty Annex Phone 1840 f REPRODUCER Programs Feature Musical Recitals Two musical assembly programs were given in the Skokie school dur- ing the past week. The fourth of the musical appreciation series, which was arranged by Musical Director Ying- ling, was presented by Lorentz Han- sen, violin instructor at Skokie and an instructor in the Bush Conservatory of Music in Chicago. The other program was in the form of a vocal recital given by Henry Cowell, who appeared at the Lyon and Healy Hall in a recital Wed- nesday. The music appreciation recital was considered as a splendid success. Un- usual attention was given by the stu- dents to the program which lasted for over forty minutes and consisted of a series of dances, chosen from compo- sitions by a number of famous com- posers. That this type of music can also be combined to form larger pieces was illustrated by Schubert's "Son- atina." The program as presented by Mr. Hansen is as follows: "Sarabande and Laurre" by Bach, "Minuet" by Haydn, "Gavotte" by Mozart, "Gigne" The next of the series will introduce "Art Songs," especially "Liders," and will be given by Leroy Hemp, an out- standing lyric tenor of Chicago. It will feature songs by Schumann, Schubert, and Tschaikowsky and will be pre- sented on January 28. Mr. Cowell's recital was very enter- taining and was well received by the students. It represented a new depar- ture in music, known as "tone clusters" and was both original and unique. Mr. Cowell is a personal friend of Super- intendent Washburne and appeared at his request Tuesday. Country Day Cagers Win Over Alumni Team, 43-41 The boys' basketball team of the North Shore Country Day school played the alumni team of the same school during the Christmas vacation, defeating them with a score of 43 to 41. The game was played at the North Shore gym. On January 10, the North Shore Lightweights defeated Skokie, 3 to 2. Games have been scheduled for the present season with Lake Forest acad- emy, Harvard and Francis schools.

WENTE Sheet Metal Contractor 874 Center St., Hubbard Woods Breath of Scandal Over Cage Contest Book, rod and rule, the ancient con- sorts of "higher education," were mo- mentarily forgotten at the Skokie school, last Tuesday, while the faculty engaged in a "basket-seeking" contest with the school heavy-weights. According to the reports that reluc- | tantly seep out, it seems that Superin- tendent Washburne was guilty of unin- tentionally aiding the heavyweights more than his own team. At least it is said that it was fatal to pass the ball to him and that he was more in the way than anything else. This conten- tion is borne out by the score at the half, which was a tie, 2 to 2. At this point, however, the faculty sent this "retarder" to the side lines and with this the story becomes some- what shady. It is gathered from sly hints, of course credited to their op- ponents, that the faculty called in one or two professional coaches to help them and certain it is that before the protests of the heavyweights were heeded, the score had become some- what top-heavy and in the favor of the faculty. Another report, coming from an au- thority undeniably authentic, has it that Mr. Yingling, the music director, changed his spots like the fabled leopard and prompted a vocal barrage that completely inundated the poor overwrought heavyweights. The exact cause for his sudden precipitation, head foremost, toward the orchestra pit could not be ascertained. It is to be supposed, however, that he had a guilty conscience. Mrs. George P.
