March 31, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 21 Cubs of Club Vista del Lago Take Trip to Wisconsin Dells One of the newest and also one of the most talked-of boys' organizations on the north shore is a troop of "Cubs" consisting of boys from eight to twelve year of age. This troop is sponsored by Club Vista del Lago and has grown within the past few months to the largest troop of its kind in the United States, having one hundred and forty-three members and quite a wait- ing list. Some eighty-five members of the troop have just returned from a three day trip to the Wisconsin Dells. This journey was conceived by Louis C. Simmel, Cub Master of the Troop, and made possible through the co-operation of Robert H. Nason, President of the Art Crafts Guild Bureau. Mr. Simmel and Mr. Nason are also officers of Club Vista del Lago. In addition to being a splendid va- cation trip for the boys, much of an historical nature was presented to the boys by an Indian guide who led them through three wonderful days of ad- venture and related tales of the days when Indians alone inhabited this picturesque part of the American con- tinent. The party was in charge of Louis C. Simmel, and consisted of Commodore J. Stuart Blackton, president and spon- sor of Club Vista del Lago, David Franklin, V. H. Peterson, representa- tive of the Art Crafts Guild Travel bureau, William Otter, and the follow- ing boys: Woodward Anderson, Edwin An- drews, Thomas Antrim, Robert Ball, Gervis Barnhill, Jerry Beman, Spencer Beman, Bob Berger, Bill Brown, Roy Brown, Hall Clark, Putnam Clark, Robert Clift, Frank Collier, Jay Coumbe, James Craig, Billy Craw- ford, Jimmie Crawford, Thomas Eng- lish, Robert Fieberg, Howard Fuchs, Foster Gilgis, John Gleason, Frank Hardin, Ted Harvey, Edward Hess.
