North Shore Branch 2609 Broadway Greenleaf 4777 Evanston, IIL Northbrook Joins Forces in Wider Roads Campaign Almost every section of Illinois, these days, is either building new roads or wider roads, or promoting roads of this nature for the near future. Nearby, Cook county is building a new bridge on Walters avenue in Northbrook which is about 800 feet south of the present bridge on Sher- man avenue, and the Village of North- brook is endeavoring to persuade the Chicago & Milwaukee Railroad com- pany to make a subway crossing of the Walters avenue thoroughfare. Walters avenue runs along the south side of Elmore's new subdivision at North- brook, and President R. Lauer, of the Northbrook Village board, hopes some day, he says, to see Walters avenue extended east to Glencoe, where it would join South avenue, and then to have it extended westerly to Milwau- kee avenue. President Lauer says he feels that this should be made a through, wide street. Northbrook, he says, has al- ready paved part of this street, west of the tracks where jt is thirty-six feet in width. It is now open from Wau- kegan to Phingston road and is to be made 36 feet wide east of the tracks. President Lauer said it is the plan of his Village to make Waukegan road a 100 foot thoroughfare throughout that village and to establish a new build- ing line there. The highway is now 66 feet wide in the village limits. President Lauer said the building of the proposed Harlem avenue, north- ward, through Glenview and on into Northbrook via Lee road, is another proposed road improvement in which all that section is vitally interested. Man Injured in Crash of Trucks at Winnetka Mike Balmes, of Northbrook, suf- fered minor injuries last Saturday morning when a truck, driven by Wal- ter Gerkin, also of Northbrook, was struck by another truck driven by Richard Howlett, of 2011 Emerson avenue, Evanston. The accident oc- curred at the intersection of Oak and Locust streets, Winnetka. Balmes' in- juries were dressed by Dr. G. M. Loewe, of 787 Elm street, Winnetka.
