cided to woo the screen. A few
weeks later when lie went to work
at the picture studio he met a little
girl named Pickford. who was said
to show quite a bit of promise.
The three organizations finished
almost identically the same way in
this year's contest as they did in the
drive last year.
In last year's drive Stamford led
the field until the closing day and
than both Greenwich and Westport
forged to the front.
Secretary Harry Sweet is lavish in
his praise of the‘workers who have
helped to make this drive a success.
In a statement made to a Sentinel
reporter last night he said: "Al-
though we were beaten in the mem-
ber’ship contest just completed we
are all very happy over the result.
The Y gained a number of now
members who we are glad to have
with us and the contest has dons a
lasting good to Stamford."

as yet. concerning a joint celebn-
