WILMETTE LIFE, FRID.\ Y. ~L\RCH 14, 1924 TALK ON LEAGUE AT SUNDAY CLUB Dean Wigmore to Give 11luatrated Lecture Dean John H. Wig-more, head of the Law School of Northwestern university, will address the Wilmette Sunday Evening club on March 16, on the subject, "The League of Nations-its organization and its work." Dean Wigmore only recently returned from an extended SOJOurn in Europe during which he was engaged in a scrutinizing personal investigation of the actual operation of the League of Nations to the continued functioning of which all the recognized nations of the world, save three, have pledged their active interest. This lecture represents the result of Dean Wigmore's observations when visiting Geneva during his recent absence in Europe. His treatment of the subject is not controversial, nor argumentative hut merely descriptive, it is explained. While in Italy, he was invited to become a member of· the League's Advisory Commission on lntellectual Cooperation, to take the place of Professor Robert Millikan, of the California lnstitute of Technology (recent winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics), and his attendance on this Commission in August last, en-abled him to obtain an intimate view of the League's operations. Since returning to Chicago, Dean Wigmore has prepared nearly 100 lantern slides to illustrate his subject; these slides have not been shown by any one else; and it is believed that no lantern -slide lecture on the League . has been given by any other person in this or any other country. There will b an attractive proJ:tram of music in connection with next Sunday evening services. "Pirates" Win Kenilworth Gymnasium League Events Red Howe's "Pirates" are the willf ners of the gymnasium league championship by virtue of an overwhelming win by a score of 12-3 in a game against their old rivals, "The \\'hite Mules." Although last week's victory wins the champion hip for the "Pirates," another game remains on the schedule. and when this game between the "Eagles" and "The Lion Tamers" is over, the winner will be in a tie with the "White Muks" for second place. The three looing teams arc now due to entertain the "Pirat e ~ · · with a banquet, and the victors are anticipating a big time. Terrora Win The Kenilworth "Night Hawks" lost the deciding game of their championship series to the \V(ilmette "Terrors" last Friday by a score of 10-4. The game was hard fought, but the Wilmette boys were a little too adept at breaking through to score needed points, and the "Night Hawks" were gradually pushed out of the running. Boxing and wrestling featured Thursday night at the Kenilworth gymnasium. PROMISE FIGHT IN TOWN VOTE (Continued from page l) had endorsed the candid ac \· of Nathaniel F.
