Printers and Publishers Winnetka 2000 You Playfield Golfers! Chance for Prize Sunday The Winnetka Drug company, of which Holly P. Harris is president, will provide some entertainment for golfers at the Skokie Playfield Sun- day, August 26. Mr. Harris is offering four prizes for his Winnetka friends to shoot at. The course is in good shape as a re- sult of the rain, and it is probable that a great many of the "big shots" will turn in their best scores of the year and make strong bids for either low gross or low net honors. The tournament is to be an eighteen hole affair, with two prizes each in gross and net scores. Begin Work Soon on New Section of Traffic Way Another section of the proposed north shore through highway is soon to become a reality with the advertis- ing for bids this week by the Wilmette Village board for the widening and paving of Main street from the south limits of the village to Elmwood ave- nue. This section of the contemplated highway will eventually connect, on a direct line through Kenilworth, with Center street in Winnetka. Main street is to be a 52-foot con- crete highway. The Cook county highway department is to defray the cost of forty feet of the 52-foot road- way. The new pavement is to be com- nleted within sixty days, it is esti- mated. B. G.

Eberle and family of 546 Provident avenue, Winnetka, spent last week at Huntington, Ind., Mrs. Eberle's girlhood home, where they visited relatives and attended the one. hundredth anniversary and home-com- ing festivities of that thriving little city of 14,000 population.

WINNETKA RETAINS SWIM RELAY CROWN Village Now in Permanent Pos- session of North Shore Trophy; Carnival Big Thriller The seventh annual water carnival of the Winnetka Park district, twice postponed because of rough water, was held Sunday under the most favorable conditions conceivable from the stand- point of participants and spectators. Two thousand villagers witnessed the events. ; The Inter-village relay championship swim for the Winnetka Park district cup was won for the third successive year by a Winnetka team and the tro- phy now remains permanently in the village. Retain Relay Trophy This event, as in former Winnetka water carnivals, proved one of the out- standing features of the afternoon races. The winning Winnetka teamr was composed of Harold Lange, B. Dewar, Everett Chambers and Ed Lange. The opposing team from Wilmette comprised Chuck Hoover, Jim Ten- cher, John Sheridan and Bill Holmes. The personnel of the Glencoe team was John Lynn, Warren Burke, Jr, E. Enchelmayer, and Robert Clyne. Entries of Winnetka boys and girls filled the several events scheduled on the program, in some instances to a point where it became necessary to run the races in two heats. This oc- curred in the fifteen-yard swim for girls, 8 to 10; the twenty-yard swim for boys, 10 to 12; the twenty-yard swim for girls, 10 to 12, and the forty- yard tub race, open to girls. Keen Competition There was close competition in all races. A tie for first place resulted in the twenty-yard swim for girls, 10 to 12, the swim off was a tie, and the judges awarded first prize medals to each of the two contestants for first place. A similar situation resulted in the forty-yard tub race, open to kirls, where the tie for third place was set- Hed by awarding two third prize med- als. The duck race proved the most amusing event of the day, for all except the ducks. Even solemn Old Neptune must have chuckled as he ob- served the frantic. efforts .of the 150 boys and girls who plunged into the lake in their attempt to catch the two mallards when they were released, 150 yards out, by James Allen, Winnetka beachmaster, who was in charge of the carnival. Both ducks were finally captured, the rules of the race providing that each fowl should become the property of its captor. Art Lamkey was the only one reporting his feat to the judges. The other winner's name was unrecorded. Diving Contest Thrills The exhibition diving brought out a galaxy of stars, who by their vari- ous stunts provided an added thrill to those found in the program of swimming events. As each star diver did his stuff, his approach to the spring board was loudly megaphoned by Jim Allen, atop the life-guard perch. "It's William Heyn coming up," Al- len announced, "ten years ago national (Continued on page 8)
