I have al ways felt that the passing of the
steam locomotive was the end of an era.
It was the steam locomot~e and the trains
it pulle d that made this country what it is today.
When the railroads sent their networks of steel
ribbons reaching across this great country of
ours in all directions, they carried to its unexplored corners the products of midwestern and
eastern man ufacture.
The steam locomotive brought the farmer his
tools so that he might till the soil. The steam
locomotive brought building materials so that
g iant cities and small towns might grow from
barren prairie land. The steam locomotive brought
the hardware and industrial goods that started
the little shops on their way to becoming huge
mills and factories. And as the steam locomotive
returned from the four corne rs of our country it
brought with it the fruits of our farmlands - wheat,
oats, barley, corn, rye, and hay. The steam
locomotive brought back fish, meat, gold, silver,
granite , brick, clay eggs, wool, cheese, , poultry,
and livestock. The steam locomotive made America great and strong and the industrial giant
she is today. Yes, and the steam locomotive
brought people - it opened up the frontiers of
the West. The steam locomotive .crossed and re crossed America until our country looked like
one giant circulatory system,
But the steam locomotive has not completely
vanished from the American scene becaus e of
a man named Norman. Sandley - a man who loves
the steam locomotive - a man who will not cast
it aside . This sentiinental gentleman is president
of the Riverside and Great Northern Railway in
Wiscons in. The R & GN is America's most picturesque and only remaining steam railroad. A
t rip on this miniature line is something you will
not s oon forget.
We had the pleasure of boarding the afternoon
local at East Station recently . Onr engineer was
Mr. John Delmore .... for many years in the same
capacity on the Omaha branch of the Chicago
and Northwestern Railroaq. My lovely wife Elaine,
the four Hellyer children and I, along with some
light hand baggage (mostly camera equipment
and diapers), had just seated ourselves we heard
the familiar, but almost forgotten, sound of the
steam locomotive whistle .
This whistle topped a beautiful Atlantic type
s t eame r .... the type I took for granted as I grew
up in Elmhurst, Ill., along the Galena Division
of the C & NW.
Precisely at 3 p.m., Mr. Delmore pulled his
string of varnish out of the station and we were
on our way, running ov er the original grade of
the old La Cro ss e and Milwaukee Railroad da ting back to pre-Civil War days.
The route over which we traveled was used
in the opening of the great Northwest Territ_ ry,
o
and many illustrious f igure5 who took part in
that great event journe yed this s ame way. We
roared through the sleepy little hamlet of Summit
at 3:02 p.m. and at 3:04 p.m. we stopped at
Rockdale to take on water.
This took but a few moments and then we
were highballing it down the mainline once again.
Engineer Delmore poured on the coal, and again
I was taken back to my youth and the Galena
Division when the acrid smell of engine smoke
came back into the passenger cars. This was
living! This was railroading!
At 3:08 p.m. we rushed past the little town
of Deer Pass . . .. where there are more four-legged
animals than two-legged ones.
Truly, this was an awe-inspiring trip as we
passed through magnificent rock cuts and scenic
canyons. This was the land of the Winnebagoes,
Yellow Thunder, Red Bird, and Blackhawk.
3: 10 p.m ..... Bilty Falls. 3: 11 p.m .... a mail
stop at the almost-forgotten town ofDeadwood.
The passenger agent came out and chatted
with us while the mail (one letter) was being
put aboard. He told us that the Riverside and
Great Northern Railway has spared no _ xpense
e
to purchase the finest passenger rolling stock
available, and that the steam locomotives are
the safest ever built, and were purchased to
insure speed and dependability.
He was telling us about the imported sand
used in the locomotive domes, and about the
crushed granite rock used on the roadbed, when
the whistle sounded and we were whisked out
of Deadwood for the last lap of our run - Western
Springs, the end of the line .
All too soon our trip was over so we decided
to return to East Station, so that we might visit
the R & GN yards and shops. Our return trip was
a fast one . . .. . a non-stop run because we had
picked up the mail and taken on water on the
westward run.
We found our tour through the Sandley Light
Railway Equipment Works to be most enjoyable
and enlightening. We were a bit surprised to
find the president of the road in a pair of overalls stretched out on the floor working on the
Stevenson gear of an American Standard locomotive ... circa 1860.
The entire mechanical exhibit is under the
supervision of Professor Robert Grimm, G.M.E.
This is a man who obviously loves the steam
locomotive, and he is more than happy to explain the intricacies of any and all things that
apply to this phase of railroading . He will. also
show y·o u the world's largest steam railroading
library with volumes dating back to 1831 .
If you long to relive for a brief period some
of the romance of your childhood, or if you have
children who are · too young to have known the
steam locomotive, plan a trip soon on the River·
side and Great Northern Railway . . . the leading
tourist line of America . You can reach East
Station by driving one mile west of Wisconsin
Dells on the Stand Rock Road . The fare ? 35¢.

EVERYBODY WE LCOME!

�The City
that save d itsel f
And when we do .. . we can feel as our own
pain the pain we have cau.sed.
A city saved itself.
It was marked for destruction
because it was a city of violence.
Yet it was not destroyed-because
its people turned from viol~nce.
N ineveh -zi.,as the city. And Jonah was
the prophet who proclaimed its destruction.
The prophet did not understand why the
city was spared.
He had to be taught. A-nd what J onah had
to learn about Nine'veh, each of us
must learn in our own lives too.
It is this . . .
At that moment, we experience far more
than the pain of punishment. We close the
space between man and man.
For to share pain, as to share love,
joins us with someone else.
Certainly each of us can catalogue a long list
of the errors we make. An d these lists will
differ, as each of us is different.
The ancient liturgy includes such a list: the
errors almost all of us must continuously
strive to revok e.
Let us consider ju st one of these; an error
which has plagued many gener ations, and
which becom es increasin gly acute as the
blessings of our tim e iP.crease.
Our errors need not be final
We imagine, for example, that the best way to
protect ourselves is to concen,t rate on ourselves.
We withhold. We pull away. We try to
accumulate. We try to possess.
This is a familiar mistake. And often we continue
to make it, even though we know it's a mistake.
Yet we also have The power to defeat
our mistakes.
We can transform the error that separates us
into a good which brings us to,ge.t her.
This is j;he great possession of Man.
At any point in our lives, we have the power
to regret a mistake, to learn from it,
to advance from it.
Not merely to be sorry, but to accept responsibility for our errors, and the hurt we cause others.
We can atone.
And what of our teachers?
In the midst of abundance, we have turned
away from the people in whose hands we
have put the teaching of our children.
Everyone knows we must have the teacher and
the school to help us give wisdom and
character to our children.
Yet we continue to give less of ourselves, of
our imagination, of our energies and resources,
to the quality of our ch ildren's schooling
than to almost any other part of our life, today.
In the ways we fail to honor our parents
and teachers, we reject the wisdom we need
for ourselves as well as for our children.
~
Inevitably, we make mistakes. We are not perfect.
We are not expected to be perfect. We are human.
of the aging until we meet their need to
give us of their wisdom, their n eed to
continue to belong, to continu e to serve .
not merely to be served .
The sin we have committed in
lowering our parents and teachers
For many generations, we have tended to
think of the commandment to honor our
father and mother primar ily as it concerns
young people and their parents.
We do not suffidently remember- in fulfilling
our own •
gifts and the gifts of our time-that progress consists of more than going forward.
It must also mean going inward- to those
timeless truths with which men have struggled
since the Beginning. And when we do this . . .
But no time- limit was set on the commandment.
And now that science has bestowed on us
the gift of longevity, we are essentially
unprepared for it.
We have yet to learn how to remain child ren
to our parents after we ourselves have
become fathers and mothers.
We have yet to learn that, to keep the
generations ·of a family together, everyone
must be given the opportunity to serve.
That is why we cannot fulfill the deepest n eed
We, will remember that wisdom builds the house,
and that the teacher is the guardian of the city.
We will remember that each of our errors,
properly understood and corrected, can lead us
to still richer rewar ds of wisdom, of love
given and of love received.
For the sin we have committed in lowering
our parents and teachers, and for all our
errors, 0 God who forgives ... bear with us,
pardon us, grant us atonement.

Letters
To the
Editor
Skokie Chosen for First
Store in New Food Chain
Dear Editor:
A somewhat belated thanks
to you for the article and picture
of the Hula Hoop, which ap peared in the Villager.
Your newspaper was one of
the first , in fact the first, that
had a writeup on the Hula Hoop
in the Chicago Area.
The best of luck to you and
your staff. I'm sure the Villager
will be a . very successful
publication.
by TOM BRANAGAN
We frequently receive congratulatory communiques from subscribers who wi s h us Godspeed and say they'd like to help the
Villager along as much as possible. Sometimes they ask how
they can do this .
We believe the most significant contribution these persons
can make is to patronize our advertisers . Villager advertisers
are our real strength; they are merchants who have been generous
and farsighted enough to w~lcome and support a venture designed
to give Niles Township the finest possible community publication .
In a very real sense, these ladies and gentlemen have pioneered this new concept in weekly journalism every bit as much as
have we, its publishers.
·
If our individual readers make it a point to trade with Villager
advertisers -they will be giving us the finest kind of support.
Thank you again.
Yours, truly,
Pat Curran

Court
Skokie village officials were
to give their answer in court
tomorrow (Friday) to a demand
that they be forced to call a
special election on changing
the village's form of government.
Circuit Judge Cornelius J .
Harrington so ordered in a
hearing Tuesday. Harrington
presided in the temporary absence of Judge Harry Fisher.
However, Fisher was expected
to be back for Friday's hearing .
Proponents of a move to
government
change Skokie' s
from the village form to the
city council type have petitioned for a writ of mandamus
-an emergency measure whi ch
would make it mandatory that
village officials hold a referendum on the proposition before
Oct. 3.
At issue is the interpretation
placed on the Illinois sta tues
covering petitions which were
submi tted by persons favoring_
the change from the present
system.
The village fathers threw
out the petitions because 1,139
of the 2,748 turned in were
signed by persons who had
not voted in the last municipal
election. They based their
action on the wording of the
statute , which says that such
petitions must be signed by
"one-eighth of the electors of
any city voting at the last preceding municipal. election . "
The 2,748 figure covered more
than an eighth of those voting
in the 1957 election.
Those who circulated the
petitions say the statute should
be interpreted to cover any
qualified voter - even if he
didn't actually vote in 1957.
Under the city council , or
aldermanic, form of government
16 aldermen would be elected
-two from each of eight wards.
At present, the six village
trustees and the village president are elected "at large"
-by the entire electorate.
The status of Village Manager
Arthur Lowther under such a
change is in doubt. The petitions
made no provision for a village
manager. The village manager
form was voted in at the 1957
referendum. However, the government-changers say the systen would be retained .

''My students might be future theatrical stars
but I consider it much more important that these
children learn, through dramatic training, to be
happy, well adjusted adults."
This is the teaching philosophy of Lester
Netzky of 7328 Keystone Ave., Lincolnwood,
director of the Tom Thumb Players. His students,
approximately sixty-five percent from Ni 1 es
Township, are an outstanding group of children
whose dramatic abilities have received wide
recognition.
An audience of several hundred hushed,
attentive children, attending a performance of
"Beauty and the Beast" presented by the Tom
Thumb Players, was a great tribute to the drama
group. During the school term, "Beauty and the
Beast"· was one of three Tom Thumb Players'
productions sponsored by the Niles Township
Parent Teachers Association . The dramatic
talent, discipline, and training of the children
was particularly evident during a dress rehearsal
attended by the Villager.
These talented youngsters combine a serious
interest in drama with all the exuberance of
-youth. Although Netzky's students range in age
from four to eighteen and study drama, dancing,
and singing, most of the drama students are in
the eight to fifteen-year-old group.
On the stage, the Tom Thumb Players have
appeared in "Pinocchio," "A King Is a King,"
"Hansel and Gretel", and "Beauty and the
Beast'' before hundreds of school children from

Netzky has been acknowledged by critics as

Douglas Montgomery, Mildred Natwick and Boris
Tumarin. Netzky was a student of Margaret P.
McClean, author of "Good American Speech, "
and Hanya Holm, dancer and Choreographer.
Netzky began his teaching career in New
York, with adult students, but he prefers teaching children. "I love children," 1he says, "and
it is easier to communicate with them since
they are not burdened with inhibitions and preconceived ideas."
Having a son and daughter of his own gives
N etzky an added advantage in understanding
and training his students. He stresses the importance of giving his young students a feeling
of importance and being understood.
"If a child is born with talent, it can be developed but every child is not a star," he says .
Above all he wants the children to be natural
on stage as weU as off stage.
Regardless of their individual talents, his
students are taught to play the lead roles as
well as the minor ones. Alternate casts were
used for the two performances of "Beauty and
the Beast," affording the children an opportunity
to portray more than one role.
Through creative drama, Lester Netzky strives
to develope the personality of his students. He
frequently writes monologues keyed to the
student's personality.
Tom Thumb drama students follow six levels
of training, ranging from the beginner to those
trained for players groups and the professional
touring company. The children are taught creative
acting, pantomine , speech, stage technique, and
characterization. They manage their own costume
changes and, in the advance classes, learn the
principles ·to makeup.
Classes consist of one to one-and-one-half
hours of group instruction weekly, after regular
school hours and on Saturdays . The average
class has twelve students. Netzky is assisted
by an outstanding faculty of teachers in the
drama, music, and dance departments.
With the expert application of makeup Lester
Netzky ages twelve-year-old Donna Gendell of
7331 Kolmar Ave., Lincolnwood for her role as
an old man in "Beauty and the Beast."
Behind the frightening costume and makeup of
the Beast Michael Goodman, 12, of 4044 Greenwood St., Skokie.

Before giving the children a script to study,
Netzky tries to discover how familiar they are
with the story. The children relate the story
familiarizing themselves, and the class, with
the plot. He finds this system very successful,
specially in the case of fairy tales such as "J ack
and the Bean Stalk'', which has 30 to 40 versions.
On stage, these pre-teen Thespians portray
their roles with outstanding poise, sincerity,
and conviction. During the "Beauty and the
Beast'' rehearsal there was a minimum of
forgotten lines and some outstanding incidents
of clever improvision. Genuine ability and understanding are required for young actors to substitute
their own words, thoughts, and feelings for the
written script.
When the group presented "Hansel and Gretel"
there 1.pas a misunderstanding about the date of
the production. The result was a much shorter
time in which to learn the script and rehearse
but the children were so adept at improvision
that the audience was completely unaware of
the situation.
School children from Niles Township can look
forward to another series of plays by the Tom
Thumb Players. The group will again be sponsored by the Niles Township Parent Teachers
Association.
From here, it is difficult to tell whether Lester
Netzky' s influence on the brilliance of tomorrow's
stars, or the inspiration and entertainment given
both children and adults by the productions of
the Tom Thumb Players, is the greater of his
contributions to culture and society.
Be1uty, Nancy Stagman is a bit reluctant to
look at the Beast, played by Michael Goodman
of 4044 W. Greenwood St., Skokie. Dorma Gendel/,
one of the old men, is in the background.
The two old men, Donna Gendel/ and Maureen
Chidel, seem to be playing a trick on unsuspectting "Beauty", Nancy Stagman.

The Portland Cement As~ociation's new Struc·

testing machine." Except for floor and founda- ·
tions, the entire building was as.sembled from
precast concrete units. It contains facilities
for structural testing unmatched anywhere.

The ''world's largest testing machine'' was
publicly shown for the first time last week at the
Research and Development Laboratories of the
Portland Cement Association in Skokie.
The "machine" is actually a three-story high
Structural Laboratory, constructed above ground
entirely of precast concrete building units which
were tilted or lifted into place by giant rigs and
cranes. The massive floor of the building is
buildfog is designed like an exceptionally strong
bridge, and is pierced by a total of 690 holes.
By using relatively simple apparat.us in combination with the floor, technicians at the new
laboratory are able to conduct many tests that
cannot be carried out anywhere else in the world.
The building, part of a $3 million expansion
of the Association's research and development
facilities, is expected to produce information
having a far-reaching effect on. design and construction of many types of concrete structures.
It adds 22,400 sq. ft. to the 103,400 sq . ft. of
research facilities already at the site. A second
new laboratory, a Fire Research Center, will
be placed in operation early in 1959 to provide
an additional 35,400 sq. ft. of test space.
Floor Two Feet Thick
The Structural Laboratory is unique primarily
because of its testing floor. The top surface
of the floor is 24 in. thick, and is joined to an

18-in, thick basement floor by a series of 8-½ ft.
high walls. In cross section, it resembles a large
hollow box-girder bridge. Actually, the floor
is built much stronger than an ordinary bridge
because it acts as a test frame for all the forces
applied to specimens in the Laboratory.
The top surface of the floor is pierced by holes
every three feet along its 120-ft. length and 56ft. width. To make most tests, steel rods are
attached to the test beam or girder, and extended
downward through the holes to connect with
hydraulic jacks located in the basement. These
jacks pull down on the rods, exerting enormous
loads on the test structures above.
The Laboratory earns its title as "the world's
largest testing machine" not only because of
its size, but because of the tremendous test
loads it can handle. The floor can withstand
pressures produced by the hydraulic jacks of
more than 10 million pounds. By comparison,
one of the largest conventional testing machines,
recently installed, c an produce a Io ad of 5
million pounds. In addition, the Structural Laboratory can apply its loads easily at any point,
and in any direction, on specimens of practically
any size or shape.
In the building, a floor slab or roof shell can
be subjected to local !~ads of as high as 30,000
lb. per sq. ft. A slab the size of the ~ntire test·

the floor are hydraulic jacks which pull down
on the rods. This beam was later broken under
a total load of 360,000 lb-.

Reserves Vita I
At one time in Korea ,. aver 54% of all Marine
pilots were Marine air reservists with practically
the same percentage for ground crews . One out
fo every three missions flown by all forces in
Korea was flown by activated Marine or Naval
air reservist;s.
To the American taxpayer, the training of
these Marine Air Reserves not only represent
efficienc;:y in time of war, but economy in time
of peace. It costs less; than one cent of the Naval
defense dollar to maintain both the Marine and
Naval Reserve.
Six reserve squadrons can be maintained for
the cost of one regular squadron.
The entire air-ground exercise on the West
Coast was completed without the cost of a single
aviation accident or casualty, also; nor were
there any aviation accidents to mar the entire
West Coast phase of training .
This training is all directed toward one pur•
pose; to enable the American people to stand
up to any aggressor and say- "Don't tread on
US - spelled U.S.!"

floor could be subjected to a load of many
thousands of lb. per sq. ft. A 50-ft. long beam
can be given a total load of some 2 million
pounds - forces considerably in excess of those
that actual structures are required to withstand.
In fact, according to Dr. A. Allan Bates, the
Association's vicepresident for research and
development, the floor is designed to handle
every test for which the staff could imagine a
future need, plus a little more.
The new laboratory is already at work testing
various types of structures and building units.
A project is now underway to develop additional
engineering information about newer t ypes of
~oncrete shell roofs. This type of roof, which
can span great distances with a shell of concrete only a few inches thick, has became
increasingly popular /or large buildings such
as stadiums, aircraft hangars and exhibition
halls.
Another project is aimed at development of
better methods of connecting precast concrete
units, such as factory-produced beams, wall
panels, columns and girders. Prestressed concrete, a very rapidly growing type of concrete
construction, will also be studied, to extend .
its applications still further.
Building Interesting in Other Ways

portion of the new laboratory, the rest of the
building shows off some advanced practices in

Cross-sectional view shows how one type of
testing is carried out in the Porth nd Cement
Association's new Structural Laboratory. The
test floor is designed by bridge design methods
to act as a tremendously strong firder. In the

the structural and architectural use of concrete.
The entire laboratory above the first floor
was assembled from precast units, erected by
power equipment. These units were designed
by a new method of engineering analysis called
"ultimate strength design," which is beginning
to supersede the method currently used by most
structural engineers. The "ultimate strength"
method takes into account more exactly than
older methods the inherent strengths of concrete
and reinforcing steel, and makes possible the
construction of longer spafis and higher buildings
out of reinforced concrete.
The walls of the building were cast in forms
lined with rubber mats , After the concrete had
hardened, the mats were stripped away, leaving
the wall surfaces with an attractive, textured
surface.
The steel used for reinforcement was specially
rolled from alloy steel having about twice the
strength of ordinary reinforcing. The concrete
is also much stronger than that used in most
structures.
The entire building is air-conditioned to a
constant temperature and humidity to prevent
atmospheric changes . that might affect test
results. Three stories of offices and shops are
located at one end of the building, and th e
basement is utilized for additional shops and
storage. Test specimens are usually cast right
in the laboratory.
Second Laboratory Completed
The Structural Laboratory is under the direction of Dr . . Eivind Hogne~tad, Manager of the
Association's Structural Development Section,
and is under the overall supervision of Douglas
McHenry, Director of Development.
A second building recently erected at the
Laboratories, the Fire Research Center, has
been completed but is not operational. It will
be equipped next spring with several huge furnaces for testing the fir~ resistance of full-size
concrete beams, slabs and structural members.
It will be the only laboratory in the United States
equipped for this specific type of work.
Other fire testing laboratories, such as Underwriters Laboratories in Chicago, are devoted
to establishing fire resistance ratings. The
Portland Cement Association laboratory will
be used primarily for research aimed at improving the fire resistance of concrete and concrete
building elements.
The Portland Cement Association is a national
organization to imp~ove and extend the uses of
concrete. It has · its headquarters in Chicago,
and 9ffices in 32 major cities of the United
States and in British Columbia, C_ nada.
a
Its Research and Development Laboratories
in Skokie are the largest in the world devoted
to research on cement and concrete.

One of the major "firsts"
for the team this year, is that
thi s is the first year the Varsity squad will have more than
a handful of seniors. Last year
there were 9; this year there
are 18.
The addition of two new
coaches to the staff is another
important "first." Bob Berg
joins Freshman Coach J oho
Cole, and Tony Viola will aid
Sophomore coach Griff MacDonald. Head coach Joseph
Yonto, and assistant coacl;ies
Frank Mariani and Don Nie
continue to work with the Varsity team.
As far as Notre Dame students
are concerned, the biggest first
is the completion of the football field, meaning home
, football games can be played
at home. Previously, they were
