GRADE SCHOOL QUINTET WINS OVERTIME BATTLE Playing air-tight basketball in a five minute overtime game the heavyweight team of the Wilmette grade schools wrested its second victory from the heavy Harvey, aggregation in a 16 to 14 con- test in the gymnasium of the Byron C. Stolp school last Friday night. The game was fast from start to fin- ish. In spite of the loss of Harry Wil- son, star Wilmette guard, who was ab- sent because of sickness, the Wlimette team performed in top notch .style. So did the visitors for the game went nip and tuck up to the finish. Toward the end of the second half Blasdell, groggy from a collision, threw the ball into Harvey's basket scoring the points for Harvey which necessitated an overtime period. Blasdell also scored the basket which broke the tie and which Rave Wilmette the victory. Star play- ing for the local team was done by Tom Copeland. Both boys found the basket and evaded the Harvey guards on the iloori-------------r^------â€"---------------â€"^--- Harvey carried off some of the honors when its lightweight team defeated the Wilmette midgets 8 to 5. This is the â- Ughtwpjght defeat at the hands of the Harvey outfit. About 300 enthusiastic fans^vitnessed | a stna| the Harvey games, which had been adver- tised as the biggest of the season. After every basket local rooters crowded to the floor to jdieer their favorites. Enough funds were realized from the games to pay for the new basketball suits which both the light and the heavy teams have been wearing this season. A game with Glencoe will probably be played this afternoon. Negotiations are also under way to arrange a contest a week from today with Harvard, a pri- vate Chicago high school. Both schools are reported to have good teams and should furnish stiff competition for the Wilmette quintets. HAS NOVEL PLAN FOR DRAMATIC TRY-OUTS Miss Stan wood, director and sponsor of the New Trier High School Dramatic club has originated what bids fair to be a revolutionary reform in the manner of try-outs for students of the school who have dramatic inclinations. In place of merely having the applicants read a few lines from a play they have never seen before, Miss Stanwood-has devised -and tried out a plan whereby each student re- ceives an extensive try-out which will en- able him to appear at his best. These try-outs are in the form of short one- act plays. The applicants are assigned parts, 'given* afeout>a week to-rehearse and?' learn their parts. Then the plays are put on before an audience. The admis- sion is nominal, merely enough to cover the cost of production. These plays have been put on each Friday afternoon for the past three weeks. No other school, it is believecr, uses this form of try-outr It has been tried three different times at New Trier with excellent results. It is to be expected that the new plan will be taken up in other schools. Never before have stu- dents been given such an extensive and fair chance to prove their ability, it is explained. ig nm ins iTn-nrnr rax return | for the year 1922, the taxpayer is re quired to include all items of gross^_______......__. __ _ inrnmp __rJVH_fHf>_.,f>f n otoreleeepcr tho I r^rtmonth college and enjoyed a visit gross income consists usually of the gross profits on sales,,-togp.t.h«r wjth income from other sources.
