Looking forward:
At Christmastime, every girl wants her past
forgotten and her present remembered .
Our youngsters who are on the Santa Claus
borderline claim that this year they' re going to
find out for sure. Christmas Eve they're going
to hang fish hooks in the chimney.

My uncle and his family had an electric Christ·
mas last year. Little brother got an electric
train, baby sister got an electric toy iron, my
aunt got an electric washing machine, and uncle
got the electric chair.

around with a bag all night and not get talked
about.

...and ...

I want to thank the Villager for the wonderful
Christmas gift. We received a beautiful 114
piece after-dinner set - a box of toothpicks .
As I watch our four children looking forward
to the rapidly approaching Christmas, I think
back to my childhood, for I, too, was one of four
youngsters. And strangely enough, we were two
boys and two girls, as is my family.

1 can't recall too clearly those Christmases
in Glen Ellyn, although the season of 1928
stands out because on Christmas Day I was
running across the dining room with a toy airplane (a model of Lindy's plane)when I stumbled
and rammed the propellor into my skull just
above the eye. This was followed by a quick
trip to the Elmhurst Hospital. Little did I know
then that years later I would make many trips to
that same hospital, and return each time with a
babe in arms.
Christmas 1933 stands out in my memory because even at the height of the depression, the
man with the beard came calling, and I still
have the American Flyer standard gauge model
of the Olympian in our family railroad museum.
Christmas 1935 was a rough one. A few months
earlier we had been involved in a serious auto·
mobile accident in Ohio, and even though Mom
and Dad were still hospitalized, somehow the
old gent with the beard made it. High School
years in the late thirties saw the annual coming
of Christmas starting to mean more than material
blessings. I was growing up, and with this maturity, just having the family near was the most
important thing at Christmastime.
Working at the post office one Christmas, and
wrapping gifts another year in the basement of
a loop department store helped me come of age
and appreciate Christmas even more. Now I was
going to college and working and learning what
a sacrifice my parents had made over the years especially those lean years of the depression.

Open every night except
Saturday til 9 p.m.

Then came the war, and Christmas away
from home for the first time. Christmas Church
services helped unite us with the folks at home,
and during these years we prayed the Christmas
theme year round - "Peace on Earth, Goodwill
Toward Men." Then suddenly, the war ended.
And now, unbelievably, it's 1958.

'Villager' Will Give Vote Results
By Telephone and Broadcast
In what appeared to be a
decisive development, the
mayors of Morton Grove, Lincolnwood and
iles
today
joined Democratic committeeman ~!artin " co tty" T(rier in
opposition to the proposed
$8,625,000 bond issue for . iles
Township High chool expansion.
The mayors, joined by Skokie
village trustees, said in a
joint statement that the high
school board should utilize
land it already owns to build
additions to the existing two
high school buildings.
~leantime, advocates of the
plan, which hubs around immediate establishment of a
third township high school
on the Evanston Golf Club
grounds in Skokie, were pushing
a house-co-house
drive for
votes.
The issue will be decided
Saturday in a referendum expected to attract a near-record
number of voters. Sixteen polling places will be open from
12 noon until 7 p.m.
There are three propositions
on the ballot:
The first proposal is to spend
a ppr ox i m a t e l y 6½ million
dollars to acquire a 31.4 acre
tract of the Evanston Golf Club
to build a third high school.
The second is for spending
a mi 11 ion d o 11 a rs for the
acquisition of about 55 acres
of land between Harlem Ave.
and t 'aukegan Rd. in Morton
Grove, for a possible future
high school site.
The third request is for 1 1/8
million dollars for addjtions to
the two present high school
buildings.
L nofficial results are expected to be knoun later that
night. \s a public service,
Villager staffers uill man the
polling places. Citizens interested in hou t_ e vote came
h
out may call the Villager office,
or: 6-3535, anytime up to midnight Saturday night or through out the day Sunday. Special
operators uill be on duty to
provide the information.
In addition, the Villager has

arranged to broadcast the
results over FM radio station
USEL, 104.3 on your PM dial,
at 8:58 p.m., 9:58 p.m. and
10:58 p.m. Saturday night.
Editor and publisher Tom
Branagan will oversee the creu
ofvote-countersandu;il/ h-:tndle
the radio broadcasts.
Among those who, like Krier,
took a strong stand against
the high school board's plan
were Mayors Henry Proesel of
Lincolnwood,
Frank
Stankowicz of Niles and John
Koller of 1orton Grove.
Village president Ambrose
Reiter of Skokie did not make
his views known, but others in
the village administration declared themselves against the
proposal.

Skokie trustees Miles T.
Babb, Raymond V. Krier, Jum
Smith,
\~'illiam Krewer and
~y Ivester J. Reese sig.ned a
statement of opposition, along
with Proesel, tankowicz and
Koller. The elected officials
said:
"Recognizing our great responsibility to the people of
our respective communities we
are compelled co issue the
following statement:
"In the best interests of
our communities and knowing
the already heavy financial
burdens being borne by our
residents, we are opposed to
the referendum being voted on
Dec. 13.
"We are not opposed to the
construction of n e c es s a r y
classroom facilities but we do
believe that the two existing
high schools can be expanded
to sufficient classrooms to
take care of increased enrollments. With the acquisition of
a small additional area at
Lincoln, Howard and Cicero
avenues there will be adequate
room to construct additional
classrooms at
ilehi East

Picketing Case
For the first time since 1955,
Carl Eckhardt will start a New
Year without a union picketing
his gas station at Austin and
Lincoln in Morton Grove.
This seemed assured when
Circuit Judge John T. Dempsey
continued to January 14 hearing
on a union motion to life his
July 31 injunction prohibiting
picket lines at the filling
station. The picketing, carried
on for three years, was ruled
illegal by the judge.

Postal Schedule
The
Skokie
and Morton
Grove post offices will deliver
gift parcels on Christmas day
this year, but money order and
and postal savings transactions will not be available
on Sundays, on Saturdays after
1, nor weekdays after 5.
In order to facilitate stamp
purchases and mailing of greeting cards and parcels the post
offices will remain open weekdays, Dec. 12 through 19 from
8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.; and Sun days, Dec. 14 and 21 from
10:00 a.m. to 3 p.m.

With the conviction of John
O'Connell on misconduct
charges,
Skokie's
police
magistrate chair is empty - and
likely to remain so .
O'Connell pleaded guilty to
the charges ~londay before
Circuit Judge Joseph A. Pope.
They involved his refusing to
sign a waiver of immunity
before a grand jury and failure
to keep or produce proper
records.
O'Connell also was charged
with embezzlement of $8,423
in fees. He has returned the
money to the state and this
charge was nolle prossed by
Judge Pope.
O'Connell then was fined
$100 and the judge signed an
order removing him from office.
Charges
of
malfeasance
again st •Sidney God ell, Niles
Township Justice of the Peace,
were continued for three weeks.
There
was
considerable
sentiment among
Skokie
trustees to eliminate the post
of Police Magistrate. Some of
them said privately that since
O'Connell hadn't been handling
any village cases for two
years, and no state cases
since his indictment several
weeks ago, there appeared to
be no need for the position.

County Changes Speed Limits
On Several Town ship Streets
Four changes in speed
limits on Church street in the
2. '.36 miles stretch from Austin
to Crawford , in Morton Grove
and Skokie, is provided among
new limits on 52 roads totaling
142 miles under jurisdiction
of the county highway department, fixed recently by the
Cook county board.
Final approval by the state
highway department , as required under the 1957 law
giving county boards power

to fix speed limits, is expected
any day.
This will probably permit
posting of the signs, 12 to a
mile, before the end of December, according to Edward

So far the country's experience has been that more speed
limits are going up than down

Editorial
Unfair Shake ?
Dear Sir:
We wish to thank The Villager for editor i a 11 y reviewing
the currently pending question before Mayor Ambrose Reiter "Should a liquor license be issued to a bowling alley so close
to the Sharp Corner School. The granting of which has been
actively objected to by every religious, educational and lay
leader in our area. ''
Although we are diametrically opposed to the conclusion
reached by the Villager, we welcome an open airing of the
question. We reaffirm our stand that this was a "zoning blight"
put forth by a "Harris Chicago Syndicate" against" the will of
the people" and that we have implored Mayor Reiter to stanfl
forth as the spokesman of the will of the people and to "rise
above the profiteers and the politicians, to protect the people."
The basic fallacy in the Villager's editorial "A Fair Shake"
of November 20, 1958, is in stating that "The question of whether
or not the bowling alley should have been constructed is not at
issue. It is an accomplished fact" and thus the owners have
every right to expect a liquor license. The cart and the horse
are all tangled up in this form of reasoning. The exact point is
that our community originally and continually has fought the
bowling alley for the reason that it would be a congregating place,
unnaturally close to a school, catering to children, where liquor
would be served, subjecting the children to all the unfavorable
atmosphere, examples and dangers of a liquor serving establishment. The proximity to a school and the ease of access to the
facilities by children is the issue. There is no God- given right
to businessmen who wish to make a profit from our people to
subject our communiry to such an unwanted and undesirable
" sidelight" of their business.
Northwest Property Owners' Assn.
Bob Martin, President

(Editor's note: The Villager was attempting to inject some
reason into an issue in which Mr. Martin and others are relying
mainly on a "save our children" theme. This is a rallying cry
that excites emotions, arousing the protective instinct in all
of us. But in this case what are we goi~g to save our children
from? Knowledge that the serving of liquor is legal and thqt
people even drink the stuff? Practically every home in Niles
Township is a "liquor serving establishment." If you concede
that serving liquor in the presence of children is harmful, then
we venture to say that the lives of virtually all youngsters in
the township already are hopelessly blighted.
(We are not making a case for or a g a inst Prohibition; we
assume that issue was decided a long time ago.
(One of the directors of the Northwest Property Owners' Assn.,
of which Mr. Martin is president, is Mr. Kenneth Littrell. His
name appeared on the masthead of the Nor'wester, which violently
opposed, first the erection of the new bowling alley, and then
granting it a liquor license. Mr. Littrell is a member of the Niles
Township High School board and currently is campaigning
vigorously for passage of an SB,625,000 bond referendum. If it
passes, Mr. Littrell and other members of the board will purchase
property on Waukegan Road in Morton Grove and erect thereon
another high school. This property is directly adjoining the big
new Classic bowling lanes where liquor is being served, and
will continue to be served. We submit that youngsters of high
school age probably are more susceptible than grade schoolers
to any "dangers" inherent in exposure to liquor traffic. We don't
see how Mr. Littrell, as a member of the high school board,
can campaign for the voluntary placement of a school smack dab
up against one "liquor serving establishment" and, as an officer
of a property owners' organization, be against a similar situation
for a grade school. The only di/ference is that whereas the proposed
Waukegan Rd. school grounds is right next to the Classir hnwl.
the Sharp Corner school is a good 1,000 feet (that's roughly three
blocks) from the other bowling lanes.
(At any rate, if the supervision and guidance we give our young·
sters is so weak that the sight of adults drinking in a bowling
alley will corrflpt them, then certainly the fault lies not with the
bowling lanes, or the people who run them, or Mayor Reiter. We
assume we'd be belaboring the obvious to point out where the
fault would lie.)

also would favor certain improvements at parks already in
operation.
Delegates from the various
Morton Grove civic, governmental and fraternal organizations who attended ~fonday
night's meeting agreed to return to their respective groups
for a determination of whether
each will help sponsor such a
program.
Th ere are 39 of th e s e
agencies. Another meeting of
the committee is planned for
late January to determine how
many of the organizations will
actively help put the referendum before voters.
Goldberg said that, if the
program is approved, it would
mean an average tax increase
of $10 or $11 a year for homeowners.
First, petitions must be
circulated and, after signatures
~re obtained, they must be
submitted to the Park District

board. A referendum on the
program then would follow.
Pertinent results of the
survey included:
1. Eighty-two per cent of the
residents of Morton Grove have
children of high school age or
younger.
2. Seventy-six per cent felt
that additional facilities were
needed.
3. Sixty-six per cent stated

they would gladly pay additional taxes for a community center
and would vote accordingly in
a bond issue.
4. Eighty-six per cent indicated a swimming pool was
desirable with 75 . per cent
feeling very strongly in favor
of this project. Seventy per
cent stated they would vote
"Yes" on a bond issue for a
pool.

Sgt. Kruger of the Skokie
Police Department spoke
recently to the children of the
lower division at Cleveland
School on the subject of safety.
Special emphasis was placed
by the sergeant on bicycle
safety. The police department
official stated that a high
percentage of accidents are
attributable to the student's
failure to follow safety rules
when riding a bicycle.
A safety program to be
carried through both the upper
and lower divisions of Cleveland School has been set up by
a committee composed of Mrs.
Bernard Mick, chairman of
Niles TownshipSafety Council,
Mrs. Leo Killian, principal of
lower division, and Mrs. J. R.
Olson, PTA chairman.
The program will include
several phases of safety such
as safety to and from school,
bicycle safety at Cleveland
School and safety at home with
special thought given to holiday trees and decorations.
Appropriate films, class discussions, creative projects,
and hand out material are being
used to carry out the theme.
The important subject of
relationship with strangers was
discussed. Pamplets entitled
"This is For You" and an
effective film was used in
connection with the discussions .

Kenton PTA VieU's
Histor__1' of Carols

W. C . MARTIN

Mr. and Mrs . Herman Hennig
They all gathered - children,
four grandchildren, a greatgrandchild, and a multitude
of friends, on Nov. 7, in the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Herman
Hennig, 5249 George St., to
help the couple celebrate their
golden wedding anniversary.
As they did 50 years ago
when they cut their wedding
cake, the Hennigs held hands
cutting their anniversary cake.
A new school now stands
on the site at Galitz and
Lincoln Aves., where stood
the little St. Paul's Lutheran
Church. It was here, in 1908,
that the Hennigs first exchanged
vows.
Today, Herman Hennig is
sexton of the new St. Paul's
Lutheran Church on Ni I es
Center Rd., a position of honor
he has held since 1926.
The ,-J.ennigs started their
married l i f e by farming at
Church St. and Gross Point
Rd., until 1925 when they
moved to their present home
on George St.
The charming couple have
reason to be proud o f their
children. Two of their sons
are members of the Skokie
Police
Department - Captain
Louis G., and Lt. Art. Another
son, Edmund H., is an employee with the Skokie Water
Dept. Other children are

daughters Mrs. Richard Endres,
5124 Dobson St., Skokie, and
Mrs. Lila Gillis, Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
However, no amount of pride
the H en n i gs have in their
children can equal the love
and pride their children feel
for them.

SKOKIE HOME BUREAU
The Skokie Unit of Home
Bureau will meet on Monday,
Dec. 15 at 7:_45 p.m. in the
home of Mrs. Adolph Winter,
7827 Kilbourn Ave., Skokie.
Refreshments will be served
by the co-_
hossteses, Mrs. E.
Rydin and Mrs. Ralph Maxson.
The lesson for the evening,
"Holiday Food Preparation,"
will be presented by Mrs. E.
Koehler llldMrs. A. Christmann.
Following the lesson and
meeting there will be a Christparty. The arrangements for
this party are being made by
Mrs. Victor Petersen and Mrs.
Arthur Schmidt.

ELIAS BAR MITZVAH
Shel4on Elias, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Herbert Elias, 6442
Drake Ave., Lincolnwood, became bar mitzvah at services
of B'nai Zion Congregation,
Saturday, Nov. 29.

Members of the Kenton PTA
w i 11 be treated to a living
history of the world's Christmas carols, presented in
tableaux by the third an d
fourth grade youngsters of
Kenton School, Tuesday, Dec.
16 in the multipurpose room,
at 7:30 p.m.
On Thursday afternoon, Dec.
18, a large evergreen tree,
purchased and planted by the
PT A as a landscaping gift
to the school, will be dedica:ed
as the Kenton PT A's permanent
Christmas tree.
In a brief ceremony beginning
at 2 p.m., Mrs. John W. Cusic,
8150 Kilbourn, PTA president,
will present the tree officially
to Miss Marjorie Wedell, Kenton
principal, on behalf of the
PTA membership.
The Kenton student council
announced that during the
week preceding the closing
of the school for Christmas
holidays, the annual collection
of canned goods for Christmas
baskets will be made by the
school children. Parents are
urged to cooperate in th i s
worthy cause.

CANCER RESEARCH GIFT
The North Shore League for
Cancer Research presented a
$500 piece of equipment to the

of making more such contributions in the future.

HEAVENLY PACKAGE
A wonderful Heaven sent
pre-holiday gift arrived on Dec.
1, at 12:07 a.m. for Edward
and Marlyn Farber, 5131 Davis
St., Skokie.
J anye Elizabeth was born
in St. Elizabeth's Hospital,
Chicago, and weighed 8 pounds,
5 ounces.
Equally
deli g h ted are
maternal grandparents, Mr. and
Mrs. Arthur Stoneberg.

"It's been a year since you've touched me!"
With these poetically touching words, one is
supposed to be lured to a movie now showing
in one of our theatres.
When we first heard the star's tragic voice
on the air, we thought perhaps she was suffering
from a highly contagious disease and her remarks
were to be the prelude to a commercial on some
medication.
There must be something radically wrong with
a woman who hasn't been touched in a year. We
suggest she go stand on a crowded bus or elevated
train.
Or- "The nightmare terror of the slithering
eye that unleashed agonizing horror on a screaming world!" Wow! This is supposed to create a
desire in us to see the movie?
The promotion to end movie promotions is the
one about the "blubbering, blabbering blob of
The Blob!" If they replaced the "B" with an
"S" they might give a more convincing idea of
wha the movie is about.
We are a great believer in promotion. However,
we don't believe in having our intellect insulted.
We don't know to what base instinct in us they
are appealing, but as far as we are concerned,
their words are more humorous than horrifying.

The day after the tragedy of last week's
heartbreaking school fire, it seemed to us that
more mothers could be seen with their arms about
their youngsters' shoulders, walking them to
school. It was a gesture as if to say-"There,
but for the grace of God-"

When the great Jewish philosopher Dr. Mordecai
M. Kaplan appeared before the Niles Township
Jewish Congregation, leaflets were distributed
in order to enable the over 1500 worshippers to
follow the service. On the front page were these
words:
"Before the service- if you must whisper,
whisper a prayer; if you musttalk, talk with God."

Mary Gillette certainly knows how to merchandise her products. She has one of those lovely
Magnus electric chord organs in her home. Then
she invites all the board members of the Skokie
Valley Business and Professional Women.
So what happens - they all scramble to play,
and they all decide that they must have one for
their home.
We can picture all of Mary's guests knocking
on the Gillette Music Shop's doors in Old Orchard
early the following morning.

An ideal holiday gift is one of those tape
recording gadgets that feeds the sub-conscious
mind while you're asleep. We would like one
with a tape that ~eps repeating, "It's good to
be poor ..... it's good to be poor ..... it's good
to be poor ..... "

You can have your night clubs . .... And your
galaxy of stars ..... Shoot a ship out into
orbit . .... Or plan a visit up to Mars . .... Even
take your movies . .... Or name studded TV
show ..... Run away to Florida . .... Or down
to Mexico ..... Just let me sprawl beside the
fireplace ..... While flames leap ecstatically.....
Lighting up the book I'm reading ..... This is
the life for me!

The group discussed the
forthcomin g $8 million bond
issue for the high school. They
were unanimous in the need
for a continuing program of
adequate classroom space for
the young people of our community, but opposed the Dec.
13 bond issue as a "blank
check." It was the consensus
that the proposed $8 million
expenditur e was excessive and
that individual members of the
group should oppose it.
Following the regular meeting, the ladies played cards
and enjoyed refreshme nts served
by the members from Niles.

1 he Villager recently received a copy of a
letter written by fJarold E. "Curly" llegelman,
president, of the Morton Grove Chamber of
Commerce, to i3asil II alters, executive editor
of the Chicago Daily '-Jews.
Mr. Degelmann has given such a spirited and
comprehensive assessment of the Morton Grove
situation that we have decided to reproduce it
in full. It follows:

Mr. Baiil \' alters, Exec. Editor
fhe Chicago Daily News
400 West Madison Street
Chicago, Illinois

THE REAL
MORTON GROVE
SPIRITED LETTER
TO AN EDITOR FROM
M. G. CHAMBER

Dear Mr. Walters:
Your atte~tion is directed to an article on
1-&gt;lorton Grove written by. John Drury which
appeared in the r~orth zone suburban section of
your newspaper.
The entire article gives a completely erroneous
and false impression of Morton Grove as to its
size, population, public facilities, etc. As a
historical piece of information the article is
fair, but evidently the reporters of the Daily
ews have not broadened their scope, as has
the Village of Morton Grove since 1950.
It is true the census of 1950 showed a
population of 3,926. However, the special
census of Morton Grove taken in January, 1958,
revealed a total of 16,643 residents and presently
it is estimated at 18,000 ..:.. not "more than 4,000"
as stated in the article. There are 4,515 homes
in the Village, which is known as the "Friendly
Village" due to the warmth and friendship
shown the new home-owners. This is a 450%
increase since 1950, while neighboring Skokie
has grown but 300%. Mention was made that our
growth had not been as fast as our neighboring
comm u n 1 t 1 es. True, our area is smaller,
approximately six square miles, but our growth
has been at a much more rapid pace. Despite
this the Village of Morton Grove has been able
to maintain an equitable balance between residences, business and industry.

GLENVIEW

Morton Grove "smoke-eaters" are strictly volun•
teer, but swing into high gear quickly and
efficiently when called upon.
An artificial kidney was loaded aboard a Navy
transport plane at Glenview air station for an
emergency flight to New Orleans recently.
Officials of Baxter Laboratories, Morton Grove,

asked the Navy to make the flight after receiving
the emergency request for the machine from a
New Orleans hospital.

And - Morton Grove is still growing, with a
total of 82 building permits issued during the
month of October, and 516 permits, covering all
types of buildings, issued since January 1, 1958.
Mention was made of the building of t]-)e railroad station by the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul
II(_ Pacific Railroad, and the former Grove Pickle
Company. However, no mention at all was made
of the present industries that are located here.
There is a total of 45 industries located
within Morton Grove, and among these are some
of the most architecturally modern buildings and
up to date operations. To briefly illustrate this there is Baxter Laboratories, Inc. which recently
had one of their artificial kidneys flown by the
U.S. !.J'avy to New Orleans to save a man's life.
They are also well known for their manufacture
of parenteral fluids and the equipment for ad•
ministering them.
Bell &amp; Gossett Co., manufacturers of "Hydro-

Flow" heating systems; Avon Products Company,
a showplace of e ff i c i en t production line
operations in the manufacture of cosmetics;
Cook Technological Center, composed of eight
buildings doing technical research and development in the field of aero-dynamics, nuclear
physics, electronics, etc.; H. M. Harper Co.,
one of the largest manufacturers of nuts and
bolts;Minneapolis-Honeywell Regulator Company,
engaged in the manufacture of pneumatic and
electrical commercial control systems, and many
other large firms representing nation-wide, and
world-wide operations have located in Morton
Grove. There is a total of 8,000 people employed
by industry in Morton Grove.
The article stated the leading edifices in the
Village numbered two - the Village Hall and the
Grove School. For your information, and others
who read the article, following is a listing of the
many types of public facilities in the Village.

The Chicago Daily News is familiar with our
efficient Volunteer Fire Department as evidenced
by the coverage given it in your article published
in the October 9th edition of the North Zone
section.
Six public, and tuo parochial schools with a
total registration of over . 4. 000 children . Among
these is Park View School, one of the most
modern grade schools in the area. Several of
the most modern grade schools in the area.
Several of these schools are planning further
additions to accommodate the increased
population.
Five churches and synagogues - with facilities
for properly serving the religious needs of the
Village's residents.
ine separate parks are maintained by the
t,lorton Grove Park District u:ith playground
equipment, drinking fountains, and planned year
'round activities for all age groups . 1 hey also
maintain an office with two full time specially
lrained and qualified people to plan and super•
vise recreation activities for the residents.
The Morton Grove public library is open daily
for the public's use. In October 1950, the library
had 4,425 volumes, 874 library card holders, and
a circulation that month of 772. October, 1958
figures show 11,307 volumes, 5,428 library card
holders and a monthly circulation of 7,165.
1 he Morton Grove Municipal Building, pictured
in connection with the article, will in a short
time be turned over to the Morton Grove Police
Department for their use. Police Chief t.1ilton
Scanlon has every right to be very proud of his
well organized and departmentalized force of 20
men, which op,e rate 3 squads and 2 motorcycles.
Thanks to their very effective work Morton Grove
does remain a quiet Village in regards to
vandalism, juvenile delinquency, robberies, auto
accidents, etc.
Morton Grove's Village offices will soon be
transferred accross the street to the newly
acquired building at the corner of Lincoln and
Callie. They too have grown through the years
from a one-man office, to a staff of 6 full time
employees to serve the public and keep proper
records .
In the early part of 1959 construction will
begin on a new 2 million gallon water reservoir
to insure sufficient water supply for the residents,
supplementing the 1 million gallon reservoir
completed less than four years ago.
This is the true representation of the public
edifices in Morton Grove.
Undoubtedly you will be interested to know
that the Illinois Bell Telephone Company is
constructing a new exchange building at 6801
Dempster Street to serve Morton Grove, with the
new exchange name of YO rktown 5, specifically
for Morton Grove users.

At Baxter Laboratories, the two workers on the
right are searching for light-colored impurities
before a dark screen, while the two on the left
scan the same bottles for dark-colored specks,
which a light screen would show up.

The commercial aspects have also broadened
their scope to a present total of 202 establishments located in the shopping districts along
Dempster Street, Waukegan Road, Lincoln Avenue
and Golf Road. Two of these areashave shopping
centers as well as the coverage along the length
of the streets. Actually, every product or service
desired is available locally. Recent sales tax
figures for the month of August, 1958, reflect a
total of over $5 million of sales taxable goods
sold during that month.
With the increase experienced in population,
naturally came the need for proper medical,
dental and professional centers, with a total of
28 professional people with offices located
lo ca 11 y to service Morton Grove's needs.
Although Morton Grove does not have a hospital
within its village limits, when all construction
is completed residents will find themselves
approximately equidistant between the Lutheran
General Hospital and the Skokie Valley
Community Hospital.

�29

Widespread use of the modern public library facilities is
evidenced by the increase in library cards from less than 1,000
in 1950 to more than 5,000 to date .

Expressway runs through Morton Grove, or a t
least through the extreme southeast corner of
the Village . The boundary to th e north is Golf
Road. The western boundary is not the Forest
Preserve District as s t ated. Forest Preserve
land runs obliquely through th e Village, with
approximately 50% of the Village west of it. The
western boundary is Washing ton St reet, 8200 West.
Almost every residential area has i t s homeowners 'association' and is extremely active in
community and civic affairs. The busin ess men,
realizing the importance of the cooperative
spirit, and strength through uni ty, are continually
building their Chamber of Commerce to promote
Morton Grove as the outstanding village in which

to live and make a living. The wonde rful
friendly atmosphere of a well-knit commun ity
has been maintained, BUT in a well-balanced
Village with all the conveniences of local shopping and a very clean industrial area.
Mr. Walters, on behalf of the businessmen ,
residents and industries, we respectfully reques t
your coope ra tion in putting this information
before your readers in its enti rety, to properly
inform them on Morton Grove and correct the
erroneous impressions in your article. Also , we
extend a cordial invitation to visit Morton Grov e
and see fo r yourself the things we have pointe d
out in this letter.

One more point mentioned in the article was
the boundaries. It is true that a portion of Edens

-- --The new, modern Villager building at 3425 Demp•
ster St. Marquee-type sign in front will carry a

variety of important business announcements , as
well as public service messages.

To meet requirements of growth, the Villager,
after eight months of publication, has moved
from its old stand at 4846 ~Jain St. to 3425 Dempster St. in Skokie.
The move was accomplished a week ago Wednesday after last week's issue had been "put to
bed" and before production had begun on this
issue. The entire operation was transferred to
the new and larger quarters without "missing a
beat": production machines were installed
immediately and began pouring out copy for the
current Villager late Wednesday afternoon.

To accommodate the publication's large battery
of phones, Illinois Bell Telephone Co. linemen
worked around the clock under the direction of
Joseph Ramsey, manager of the Skokie office. As
a result, the Villager's switchboard and 25-phone
hookup, as well as an office intercom system,
were in operation the second the old office was
officially closed down.
The Villager's new headquarters, which hereafter will be known as the Villager Building,
formerly was occupied by Foremost Builders.

There are large offices extending over three
floors, each light and roomy and appointed
beautifully. Editorial, production, advertising
and executive departments occupy panelled
suites with the latest innovations in lighting and
acoustics. Thomas E. Br an a g an and Myron
Greisdorf, who share ownership in the Villager,
said in a st,.rement:

"We are extremely proud to announce acqui•
sition of our new headquarters and we invite our

friends and readers to visit us at any time.
"1he Villager beg an publication April 17.
Now, with only 34 issues behind us, we have
reached the point where, in order to better serve
our subscribers and advertisers, we have ac•
quired quarters more comp at able with our
larger operation.
"To those who have made this move possible our loyal subscribers and advertisers - we ex•
tend our humble gratitude, and offer the hope
that we will continue to merit their confidence."
We are reproducing on these pages a series of
photographs of ournew building, and the Villager

by TOM BRANAGAN
The celebrated Nov. 29 old-car parade of
Skokie' s East Oakton merchants was run on a
dry track - but otherwise conditions were deplorable.
The temperatur e was near zero, and this circumstance turned the event into a sort-of man
vs machine affair. We are pleased to report that
the East Oaktoners came through nobly: at the
end, every last man was on his feet - numbed
feet, to be sure - while one of the ancient
vehicles pulled up at the seven-furl ong post.
Happily enough, this turned out to be in the
vicinity of both Breit' s and Rudd's service
stations, where prompt diagnosis disclosed an
asthmatic condition complicate d by a bad cold.
The patient is recovering .
This is not to be taken as a reflection on the
courage of the oldtime vehicles: forty gave notice
they would appear and 38 showed up. Considerin g
the forbidding nature of the weather, this was
a remarkable display of fortitude for fellows
45 years old, or so.
The parade began at Crawford Ave. and
Dempster St., and according to plan was to proceed leisurely west and south to Lincoln and
Oakton and then east to the Oakton and Kostner
finish line. An hour and a half was ·allotted for
th&lt;! tour.
.-fowever, a general absence of insulation
(there were no heaters, of course) forced the
participan ts to toss aside the timetable. As a
result, hardy souls who ventured forth on foot in
the biting cold to witn1;ss the affair were astonished to see the venerable vehicles whizzing by
at a great clip, their heavily bundled occupants
hunched grim and stiff, intent only on survival,
while an unfortunat e Santa, exposed to the
elemeqts in an open-air touring car, scattered

goodies wildly from his sack in an effort to
deplete the supply before either mechanica l
calamity could strike or the race end.

Nearing the finish line, the straining, swaying
automobil es slid to a halt upon the command of
a Sun-Times photograph er who stood implacabl y
in the middle of east Oakton street and bade all
hands to line up for a picture. There was some
confusion at this point - that, or outright desertion - for a majority of the paraders seized
the opportunit y to unpry their grips on whatever
they · had been hanging onto and scurry to the
shelter of the Skokie Trust &amp; Savings Bank and
other nearby havens.
Two of the real heroes of the parade were
Roy and George Strom, a father-son team of
excavating contractor s and old-car fanciers who
live in one of the western suburbs. They entered
two old-timers : a 1915 Cadillac and a 1927 truck.
In the Cadillac with them were several Skokie
officials, including village attorney William M.
(Tame Bill) Hennessy, who had the foresight
upon graduation from college to lay aside his
raccoon coat for just such an occasion.
The Stroms spent the rest of the afternoon
visiting with residents here and impressed all
with their conviviali ty and good will.
They sent the '27 truck home with one of their
drivers but, as nightfall approache d and the
temperatur e dropped even further, were seen to
be eying their open Cadillac with some misgivings. There was no question that a ride home
in th1: air conditione d patriarch would be a
hazardous venture.
Fortunatel y, the Strums are resourcefu l chaps.
Theywent over to PeterEpst een's place, plunked
down a S3,000 check and drove home in a 1959
Pontiac.

Dear Sir:
Most of us who are residents
and/ or property owners in Skokie,
moved here from Chicago, hoping
to escape from the overcrowded
conditions of living there, as well
as the burdens of over-taxation
and thought perhaps that in this
village community, we might find
an environment conduci-ve to good,
well ordered living, where we
could bring our children up proper·
ly, or finish out the remainder of
our lives with peace of mind, as
the case might be.
Now , we are faced with a situation where the Nile-Iii Board of
Education seek to impose upon
us their will, by telling us a
portion of the Evanston Golf Club
is the only site in Skokie on
which to build Nile-Hi No. 3 at a
cost of six and one•half million
dollars . This, in addition to their
ocher expansion program totals
eight and one-half million dollars!
Even in these days when figures
of millions and billions of dollars
are tossed around at random, eight
and one-half million dollars is a
lot of money! I, for one, am not
unmindful of the fact chat I will
be called upon to pay my full
share of this in taxes - and so
will every other property owner
in Skokie . Further, in my opinion,
chis is only the beginning- not
the end!

I have no doubt but what the
members of the Nile-Hi Board of
Education are sincere dedicated
men, in their opinion, feel they are
acting in the best interest of the
community with respect to the
educational needs of our children
now and for the future . Frequently,
however, those closest to a pro•
blem, in their zeal to do something
quickly, based on what they feel
pressing need, "oversell"
is
themselves in their desire "to
sell" an idea to others. It's a bit
like "not being able to see the
forest because of the rrees".
The reasons stated publicly by
the Nile-Hi Board of Education for
choosing Evanston Golf Club as
a site for Nile-Hi No . 3, do not
make sense to me. First, why
Evanston Golf Club? They say
geographical location, but Oliver
Sandquist, a former building com·
missioner of Skokie, whose past
experience should qualify him to
know the truth, as well as state
it, has publicly declared that the
site which they call "the City
Dump" is better suited for a
central location than the Evan·
scon Golf Club.
Why desecrate Evanston Golf
Club? Even in Chicago, public
officials seem to find virtue in
preserving places of beauty and
breaching space. Witness Edgewater Golf Club, beverly Hills
Counrry Club and even closer at
hand, Edgebrook Golf Course . If,
in the crowded condigion of Chicago Ii ving, it has been deemed

from

in the best public interest to
preserve these beauty spots, why
in Heaven's name do we here in
chis Village of Skokie, co which
we have escaped from Chicago
living conditions, now find ourselves confronted with chis in·
tolerable situation?
An exchange of letters between
Evanston Golf Club and the NileHi Board of Education on this
matter has been publicly printed.
The Club stated:
1. Evanston Golf Club is not
for sale.
neither made,
have
2. They
nor received any offer co sell.
3. They would resist any further
negotiations in the matter.
To chis Mr. Wi;; e, as President
of the Nile-Hi Board, replied in
part as follows - and I quote this:
"A formal offer, based upon expert
appraisals, will be made to the
Board of Directors of the Golf
Club for acceptance or rejection,
and, if, at that time, the acquisition cannot be amicably arrived
at, then the Board will immediately
acquire the property by condemna•
tion proceedings . "
From the above, it seems to
me chat the School Board is asking
us citizens co sign a blank check
to acquire a piece of property
from a seller who doesn't wish
to sell and who, failing in their
~ ttempt to buy, threaten co enforce
their mandate by condemnation
proceedings.
Quite frankly, since ocher sites
must be available in Skokie or
Niles Township where Nile-Hi
o . 3 could be built at less ccs c,
it seems to me that acquiring a
site on the Evanston Golf Club
ha, become almost a matter of
"personal challenge" to the members of the Board of Education.
I submit the face that the matter

is far too important to us to be
considered in such mt nner - parcicula rly, where we are asked to
"foot the bi 11."
I feel very strongly that Evanston
Golf Course, which has given the
pleasure of beauty since 1917
of those of us who don't play golf,
as well as cha; e who do, is fully
as important in City Planning as
parks, pools and other recreational
centers. Why destroy a landmark
of 41 years, when it is not necessary - and pay an exorbitant
price to do it?
I am for higher education - at
lower cost!!
Respectfully,
L. E . Hagenow
Skokie
Dear Sir:
I feel that it is time a mother
spa ks 'on the High School bond
issue. My children have been
attending Skokie schools for fifteen
years and my husband and I have
been members of the PT A and
served in various capacities with
chem throughout the years.
I am opposed to Mr. Krier' s
suggestion· to enlarge and crowd
3000 children into our present
High Schools. 1 chink the High
School Board's direction away
from large enrollments is right.
. We have just witnessed a tragedy
beyond comprehension where too
many children were crowded into
small as well as shamefully unsafe
quarters.
Since when, I would ask, have
our young fam1lies objected co
improved facilici'es for eduo tion?
The families . who ire settling
in Niles Township are doing so
primarily because of what our
community offers their children.
Our modern schools, our fine park
and recreational activities plus
the
wholesome atmosphere of
space, light, and clean air are
the attractions that have brought
and are still bringing them. Mr.
Krier mistakes himself as their
spokesman. He may speak for a
few of the "old guard" whose

THE VILLAGER
families being grown, no longer
need our schools - or for some of
those who prefer parochial schools
and so are unwilling to pay for
public facilities they do not use.
Mr. Weinbrechc objects to the
cost of physica 1 education facilities
in the schools, co the extent he
advocates
ammendment of the
State Law, to limit our boys' and
girls' parcicipa cion in the physical
fitness program. That brings to
mind a question that I would direct
to the High School administrators,
Why, and must, the seventy-odd
boys who annually turn out for
basket ball and some other sports
be cut co twenty-two or three?
Mr . Weinbrecht also accuses
our schools of ostentation. Again
I disagree. I haven't seen a frill
in any of our new school buildings.
In any event, let us not allow
the old hue and cry to confuse
us. No amount of wishful chinking
will change the direction of taxes
downward. Let's see chat our tax
money is spent where it will do
the greatest good. School buildings
will continue to be needed in chis,
the fastest growing suburb in
Illinois .
Let it not be sa id chat Communise force won world supremacy
because of its educated leaders,
whereas the fall of democratic
America was due to its voters'
refusal to foot educations bill.

on the three proposals, Dec. 13,
was paid for through contributions
of their organization. This group
is also paying for the rental of the
room that we use for our meetings
at the high school.
We also feel justified in what
we are doing and feel that we
should not be cricized for using
the grade school children to bring
chis literature to their parents, for
who should have a better right to
bring home chis information but
the grade school children who
will be using t'hese high schools
in years to come?
Mrs . Victor R. Rasmussen

Skokie
Dear Sir:
It's about time some citizen
asked a few questions of the opponents to the High School Bond
Issue.
I am tired of hearing these opponents vilify and by innuendo
accuse the High School Board of
Education members of ''putting
something over" on the tax payers.
Any person who sincerely wanrs
answers co the S8,625 ,000 bond
issue needs only to read and
listen to explanations given by
our elected board members as to
why they feel their proposals are
the best solution to the educational problems.
As a member of the Citizens
Council for High Schools I personally know who the members are
and am p:oud co be associated

with people who are so dedicated
to furthering the education of our
children. These people are a true
cross section of Niles Township.
Every section, school district and
educational group of chis community is represented on this
council. The names of these people
appear on the Council's letterhead. These members believe in
the school boards proposals and
recommendations.
During the past 2 weeks the
o JPOnents of this bond issue have
attended meetings of various PT A
groups and harassed school board
members, disrupted orderly procedures and in some instances
openly shocked those in attendance
by their complete disrespect of
officers of these PT A groups. All
chis under the quise of "asking
questions." No answer the board
might give them would change their
opposition to the bond referendum.
It is the time now for voters who
have a sincere interest in the
future education of our children
to ask some questions of the
opponents of this issue!
Mr. James H. O'Brien, listed
variously as Chairman, Spokesman and Vocal Leader of the
"Committee for Higher Education
at Lower Taxes" an "Economy
Bloc" claims his group is composed of a "fair cross section"
of Niles township . Question One Who are the members of his group?
Mr. O'Brien owns a home on the
golf course. Are his members home

Dear Sir:
In last week's issue of one of
the local Skokie papers they
wondered who was paying for the
literature issued to date and I
would like to inform chem through
your paper.
I would greatly appreciate it if
you would print this letter in your
next edition, Thursday, Dec. 11,
letting the public know chat the
literature that was sent out by the
Citizen's Council for High Schools
of Niles Township informing the
public why it should vote "YES"

owners on the golf course, golf
club members, or whom? - Is this
whar Mr. O'Brien describes as a
"fair cross section" of the c ommunity? Question Two-"What is
the strange alliance between Mr .
O'Brien's group and a local p olitical
machine?"
The anti- high
school propaganda literature put
out by Mr. O'Brien's committee is
currently
being distributed by
Scotty Krier ' s precinct captains.
I, for one, bitterly resen t any
politician celling me how to v ote
on an educational issue that wi ll
affect my children.
When Mr. O'Brien can show th e
people of chis township chat his
group is not aligned with a political organization - chat the membership of his committee is an honest
and fair cross section of the
voting public of Niles Township,
then, and only then will be citizens feel the convictions of his
group are sincere and their oppo sition to bond is sue is based o n
economy.mmm

Dear Sir:
•
To vote "no" on chis issue
is to imply chat the board of education is not qualified to determ1ne
the best course of action for chis
community. These men have given
long and serious hours in order
to give this community the proper
educational facilities. They are

sincere, dedicated men, all reports
to the contrary nothwithstanding .
deThe political tactic of
nouncing certain minor phases of
a generally sound program, and
negative
thereby creating a
"emotional" climate in a community by use of the newspapers
and "vocal" individuals , is not
new Some people would vote "no"
to ANY social advancement that
meant a raise in their taxes. When
you consider that the increase in
taxes would amount to approximately Sl6- 20 .00 per year on an
$25,000 .00 home, and
average
consider this factor along side of
EVERYONE
the amount which
(some more than others) Hitters
away per year on personal luxuries,
be it cigarettes, whisky, make-up,
clothes, pleasure-trips, bowling ,
etc . , is this not a rather harsh indictment of our so-called belief in
''brother-man"?
So after spending all this time,
listening to architects, professional
educators, making trips to schools
all over the country, our board
comes up with what they consider to be the very be st solution
for our comm·unity. Now they must
take this solution to the people
and according to the democratic
process, allow them to say "yes"
or "no". It seems a little absurd
in one sense, for who else could
know the best answer better than
they?
Bence my reason for writing this
article. Those of you who know
me, and who value my opinion,
for whatever it may be worth,
please get out to the polls on
Saturday and vote.

�THE FIREMAN ST AGE
by MILES T. BABB
Chairman, Fire and Police
Committee
Skokie Board of Trustees

Almost every boy goes through "The Fireman Stage".
Each imagines himself in the characteristic red-metal headgear
and strapping boots, storming up and down ladders and performing
heroic deeds.
Boys become men and most forget their childhood dreams, but
not all of them. Some actually become firemen. Those that do, have
something more than just courage . .... Something that enables each to
perform a grim and thankless job from day to day.
The fireman is far from overpaid . He knows no timeclock. He
see·s his family less than he'd like. When he works, they are often
asleep and vice versa.
Ever see a Fireman swing Jnto Action?
He moves furiously! Almost mechanically! And when he's on
the scene he does what needs to be done , to the best of his judgment
and ability . .... usually in the face of great personal danger.
The majority of us don't give much thought to our fire fighters
until some terrifying blaze strikes close to home . Recent tragedies
place the fire fighters in sharp focus, and their value to a community
is assessed as "immeasurable."
There is little that can be done or said about past events . But
for the future , the surest safeguard is to keep a "ready" system based
on a community's knowledge of and interest in its fire fighting process,
and what needs to be done for the protection of life and property.
Niles Township has its firefighters . .... both volunteer and
professional. All of them are long past "The Fireman Stage." They get
the job done . .. .. and we're lucky to have them.
