Davidson Allows But Fire Hita, mm* i McHenry Gathers In Thirteen •# , Winkel Stars In Field | A sparkling double play by Winkll together with the superb pitching <rf.. Davidson featured last Sunday's con- » test as staged between McHenry and Johnsburg on the latter's grounds last Sunday afternoon. The game attracted several hundred "bugs," who turned out with the thought of seeing a reproduction of the very satisfactory performance as turned out by these two teams the week previous. However, it was evident right from the very beginning that no such exhibition would be seen last Sunday. It was another Sunday and coupled with this our old friend, Joe Miller, was far from the pitcher he proved himself to be one week ago. Joe relived his brother, Nick, Who had started the firing line, in the fourth inning and, while he showed some of his old time form in spots, the job of stopping the McHenry outfit proved too big an undertaking and by the time that the ninth inning rolled around the big fellow had lost most of his steam and effectiveness and as a result our lads lambasted his offerings most unmercifully. Joe isn't as young as he was fifteen years ago. However, we can't help but admire his gameness in going in working as hard as he did last Sunday. Like all other lovers of the national pastime, Joe just hates to be counted out, but like many of the rest of us who have discarded our baseball spangles many years ago, he must some day jpve way to the younger blood. Davidson, who wad on the firing line for McHenry and delivered from the "off" side, held the Johnsburg sluggers to five hits and whiffed fifteen. The port-sider sure did have his opponents eating out of his hand and after the first inning the enemy was able to do but little with his offerings. For a moment in the sixth inning it looked as if Johnsburg had mastered our south paw's delivery, but a sparkling double play by the fleet little Winkel put an end to what looked like a starting of *- battfog rally. The game by innings: ~ First inning: "Bobby" Knox drew walk and was safe on second before Freund was able to make up his mind whether or not to play for him or Rossman, who had shot a fast bounder down into the short field. Freund's bobble and temporary hesitation allowed both men to reach the bags in safety. G. Meyers shot a single between first and second, upon which Knox rode home, while Rossman went on to third. Meyers took second on the throw-in. M. Meyers" planted a double in almost the identical spot, cfypsen by the preceding batsmen, the hit scoring Rossman and G. Meyers. Mead was thrown out by Thelen and Buss and Winkel fanned. Two hits, three runs. Johnsburg: Franzen singled thru short and scored on King's double to center^ King took third on Thelen's out, G. Meyers to M. Meyers. Freund met his fate thru the same combination, while N. Miller was killed by Rossman an**. Meyers. Thro hits, one run. Second inning: Bolger singled to right. Davidson lifted a tall fly to Klaus in center. Knox rolled to N. Miller and was thrown out at first, Bolger taking second on the play. Rossman struck oat. One hit, no runs. Johnsburg: J. Miller walked and was caught stealing. Klaus and Adams both, fanned. No hits, no runs. Third inning: G. Meyers singled to right and was caught at second when he tried to stretch the hit into a double. &. Meyers rolled to Miller at first and the Miller boys executed Mead. One hit, no runs. . Johnsburg: ^Frett out, Rossman to M. Meyers. Franzen fanned. King walked and took second on a passed ball. Thelen struck out. No hits, no runs. Fourth inning: Bnss was givan life on Thelen's error and took second on Winkel's single over short. At this juncture of the game Joe Miller took up the pitching duties, his brother, Nick, going to first. Bolger struck out and Davidson fouled to Franzen. After "both base runners had advanced a peg on a wild peg they completed the circuit on Knox's double to center. Knox then stole third while Rossman was fanning. Two hits, two runs. Johnsburg: Freund out, Rossman to M. Meyers. N. Miller's fast grounder got away- from Davidson. G. Meyers recovered the pill, but could not get it to first in time for the putout. J. Miller fanned. Klaus was hit by a pitched ball and took first, N. Miller going on to second. Adams struck out. No hits, no runs. Fifth inning: G. Meyers out, Thelen to Miller. M. Meyers doubled to left. Mead struck but and Buss was nailed by Joe Miller. One hit, no runs. Johnsburg: Frett, Franzen and King all went out via the strike-out route. No hits, no runs. Sixth inning: Winkel shot a single past second and then was forced at the keystone sack when Bolger -rolled to Thelen. Davidson singled to center, Bolger going to third. Davidson then deliberately drew a peg to first by taking a big lead off the sack. While he was being run to death between the two sacks Bolger scored.

Joe Miller connected with one of Davidson's choice offerings for what looked like a clean bingle to left. Jumping high into the air' Winkel pulled down the liner, then stepped into second base and t$ie inning, was over. This was as neat a piece of work as' has -been seen in these parts in many a day.

The captain of the three deck river boat is signalling from the bridge for half-speed ahead. Almost 1,000 gaily clad passengers are at the rails waving goodby to the crowds standing at the landing at the Kimball street bridge. As the steamboat rounds the pumping station, a jafcz band blares forth on the second deck and the outers swarm to the dance floor. Others settle themselves in deck chairs, waving their hands to canoeists as they paddle to get out of the way of the boat's wake. \ The boat slides up to title mooting at Dundee and more passengers board the steamer, which is plying between Elgin and Fox Lake. This isn't an Arabian Night's tale. It is one of the plans of the Elgin Association of Commerce in its effort to make Fox river from Elgin to Alg- eriquin a- navigable stream. The idea is credited to Edward J. O'Beirne. Two years ago Mr. O'Beirne suggested the idea, which was taken up by the commerce body. The cost of deepening the river Was estimated at $35,000 and the government was asked to consider the plan. The government, however, did not deem tfye plan advisable at that time. Again this year propagandists, seeking to make a trip from Elgin to Fox Lake aboard a steamer possible, broached their plan, including the in,- iThe aid laVoject. is ; this II® Lost Soaie Sleep • The members of the Riverside Drive3$ Five Hundred Card club caused one ofpf their set to lose a few hours of per-ai fectly good sleep last Sunday evening • when, unexpectedly to the victim, they^? called at the home of Ray Conway t|o? remind him of his birthday anniver-- sary. Ray had" just called it a dayfp and was getting ready to "hit the4f hay" when his friends called. He was ' a moment in deciding whether to re-attire and let his wife take care of thev guests or to stick with the crowd. After he had been told that he was.'. the victim and that the visit was made \f in honor of the anniversary of hiaf§»- birth, Ray decided it was up to him; j. to do the entertaining and after lo-,^ eating his shoes, one of which had found-its way down into the basement{. and the other beneath the bed, he|P with the assistance of his jolly, little ,? wife, soon had tables arranged for five ;, hundred, which was enjoyed for a few*'" hours, after which refreshments were% served.
