SKI CLUB TO HOLD ANNUAL Winter Or*a*izarion Take* Part ai Offer £**sis * The Lake Placid Ski club has decided to hold another ski ball in mid-August for the fourth con- secutive summer. William Hovey, president of the dub, will appoint a committee this wek to set the date and place for the dance. The dab has also voted to open the August 13 meeting to the pub- lic when it will be devoted to the showing of motion pictures of ski club activities taken last winter. The meeting will be publicized in the various hotels and boarding houses so that their clientele may view Lake Placid under snow eon- ditions. Carl Ortloff, club secretary, was instructed to write a request to the North Elba park district for further work on the Cobble Ski center during the summer months. The club believes that completion of the work at the center will add greatly to its popularity and spec- ifically suggests a new cabin for the base of the downhill trail, a cabin at the top and the widening of the trail at the higher portions.
