WINNETKA 2000 ANOTHER BOY DROWNS Stewart Carpenter of Winnetka Is Lake Victim Following Death of Chicago Boy The second drowning within a week in Winnetka and the third in three weeks occurred last Monday, July 16, when Stewart Carpenter, 948 Hubbard lane, nineteen year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry A. Carpenter, was drowned at Porter's beach near Sheridan road and Fisher lane. Young Carpenter was apparently alone when drowned, and no witnesses to the tragedy were found. He went into the water about 3:30 o'clock in the afternoon, according to the police re- port. The boy was regarded as an ex- pert swimmer, The body was recovered about 9:30 o'clock Monday evening by Capt. O. W. Fricke's men from the United States Coast Guard station at Evans- ton. The inquest was held at Scott's undertaking parlor, 554 Center street, Winnetka, and the verdict was *"ac- cidental drowning caused by cramps." Besides his parents, the boy is sur- vived by four brothers, David, James, Henry, and Fletcher, and one sister, Agnes. Funeral services were held af the late residence, 948 Hubbard lane, Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, and interment was made at Graceland cemetery. The Carpenter drowning occurred ex- actly one week after Barney Arthur, of 2532 North Kildare avenue, Chicago, met a similar fate at the same place. Chief W. M. Peterson, of the Win- netka police department, has again is- sued a warning against bathing in the lake where there are no life guards, He expects to discuss with the mem- bers of the village council at their next meeting the possibility of a reg- ulation prohibiting public bathing ex- cept at the two regular Winnetka beaches, Swarm of Bees Escapes Winnetka Police Search Wanted--a swarm of bees! The multitudinous duties of the Win- netka police department were again pointed out last week when a call came from a man on Sheridan road asking that the officers help him locate a pet hive of bees which had swarmed and disappeared. The officers immedi- ately got busy and scoured the town, looking in every tree hollow for the little honey makers. The outlook is gloomy since no traces of the bees have been found to date.

DEDICATION OF FIESTA AT VISTA DEL LAGO GAY Members and Guests Dine, Dance and Enjoy Evening of Enter- tainment in New Ballroom Colorful, summery and gay as an evening in Old Spain. That terse sent- ence describes as accurately and com- pletely, as is possible, the inauguration of the three day celebration marking the dedication of Club Vista del Lago's new Fiesta ballroom and Galeria, on Wednesday evening. Members and guests to the numRer of two hundred and fifteen were there. They dined, danced and enjoyed an evening of en- tertainment. It was one of those unusual affairs in which the social side of north shore life indulged itself to its most pleas- ureable degree. The members, com- ing from north shore suburbs stretch- ing from Evanston to Lake Forest had as their guests other suburbanites, Chicagoans and there was one guest who claims far away Madrid as home. Spanish Atmosphere Everywhere The artistry of the new ballroom, which is the second step in the build- ing of what is to be a most pretentious club on the lake shore in No Man's Land, has been accomplished by the thought and deft hand of Mrs. How- ard Linn of Chicago. Spanish atmos- phere is there as it is everywhere in the club. Surrounding the dance floor are tables and in the Galeria to the west there are more tables where the members and their guests dined at eight o'clock. Everywhere in this new unit of the club there is color, splashes of it, and under soft colorful lights the members and guests dined. Later in the evening they moved out to the Esplanade where they might dance in the open where it was cooler. Spanish troubadors and native sen- oritas provided entertainment which drew applause and encores, Leo Nadel of Chicago being the director. Pedroza, basso of the Mexican Opera company sang three songs. Miss Rubye Mc- Daniel Bell of Kentucky, lyric soprano also appeared. Characteristic Spanish dancing was another feature. The music was fur- nished by Cope Harvey's orchestra. The members who entertained at dinner were representative of all the north shore suburbs. Commodore Blackton of Hollywood, California, who organized Club Vista del Lago entertained twenty-eight guests. At Mellon C. Martin's table there were ten guests. Elbert M. Antrim had ten guests and so did Ray Hollis. J. E. Worthen was host to ten guests at his table. Other members at the tables and the number of their guests were : I. M. Archamboult, four; J. L.
