4 WINNETK A TALK April 7, 1928 Lack of Quorum Forces Board to Postpone Action The Center street improvement mat- ter was again before the village coun: cil Tuesday evening, when the same objections were voiced by Center street property owners, as had previ- ously been raised. The Board of Local Improvements adopted a resolution adhering to the president's estimate, but owing to lack of a quorum, action by the council in the introduction of an ordinance was postponed until Fri- day evening. Noted British Educator to Address P. T. A. Here Dr. Elizabeth Rotten, one of the di- rectors and founders of the New Edu- cational Fellowship in England, will address the Parent-Teacher associa- tions of the Winnetka schools at the Skokie school at 8 o'clock on the eve- ning of April 16. New Trier High school and North Shore Country Day school P. T. A's have been invited to attend and all other residents of the Village who are interested are also invited.

WINN. 235 Cabinet Making Refinishing Phones Winnetka 1869--1870 1871--1872 Unopposed Candidates Elected in Town Ballot With only one ticket in the field and with only two officials to be elect- ed, the annual Township election last Tuesday proved a very quiet affair, as far as the number of votes polled, is concerned. James A. Williams, appointed high- way commissioner a short time ago to fill the unexpired term of H. H. Sherer, resigned, was re-elected, and the other office to be filled was that of school trustee, for which J. Ed- ward Maas was unopposed. There were only about 20 votes polled in each of the Wilmette pre- cincts, but in Winnetka and Glencoe, in each of which towns the annual village elections were held on that day, from 60 to 70 votes were record- ed in the several precincts in the township election. The ballot will be officially can- vassed during the week end, by Super- visor Mrs. Gertrude M. Thurston; Assessor George R. Harbaugh and Township Clerk Mrs. Margaret S. Pierson. Preparing Answers on Suits Against Village The two damage suits against Win- netka police officers filed in the cir- cuit court are coming up the third Monday of this month for answers, which Village Attorney Frederick Dickinson is now preparing. Alleged cruel treatment in making arrests is charged by the plaintiffs, Elwood Rogers of Glencoe, and Ernest Haines of Winnetka, the former of whom is suing for $10,000 and the latter for $15,000. The third suit, against Chief W. M. Peterson for $10,000, brought by Geofilo Ceruti in the Superior court, an outcome of the Mary Ceruti liquor case, will be up for answer May 1 and for which Attorney Dickin- son is also making preparation. RAPP BROS. Scouts Collect §4 Sacks of Paper in Clean-Up of Streets More than 84 burlap bags of loose paper were collected by the Winnetka Boy Scouts last Wednesday when they mobilized for the purpose of cleaning up the business districts and the area immediately adjoining. Seventy-five Scouts turned out under the leader- ship of Scoutmasters Robert Doepel and I. Sherman Aldrich and, divid- ing up into troops, spread out over the Village. At the end of the day the paper was piled up in the vacant lot near the Oak street station of the North Shore Line and a huge bonfire and weiner roast held in celebration. In order to, prevent the possibility of a fire being started the Winnetka Fire department participated in the event and enjoyed the fun. The idea of collecting the loose papers was conceived by the Scouts and when the proposition was pre- sented to Village Manager H. I. Wool- hiser, it met with his instantaneous approval. The boys were highly com- mended by citizens who witnessed their work. The Indian Hill, Hubbard Woods and main business districts were covered. Community House to be Aided by Dance Program Mrs. W. J. Webb, of the Webb School of Dancing, is planning a unique dancing entertainment in Community House Monday evening, April 30. This evening is planned as a benefit for Community House, and will be given in Rudolph Matz hall under her per- sonal direction. Further details of this interesting event will be given later. 522 Center St. Winnetka, Illinois SPECIALS FOR SATURDAY, APRIL 7th Genuine Spring Lamb Pork Loin Roast, Ib.
