Cary has a ball club of which her citizens are justly proud and during the past few seasons they have won a great majority qf the games played, at home as well as when traveling. Therefore any club that can go down to Cary and hand the home prides a trimming as was recorded by the McHenry athletes last Sunday is worthy of a whole lot of credit, and since accomplishing this feat our team need not fear Any of the clubs in this section. ,9 The team has proven without a reasonable doubt that it possesses the offensive as well as defensive ability to hold its owpi with any team in Mellon ry county and with the sort of pitching as delivered by Nelson last Sunday our lads will win most of their games this season. Their record to date is six wins out of eight starts. The McHenry team, which has air ways found Nickie Hubert more or less of a stumbling block, found his delivery with marked regularity last Sunday, getting nine bingles, including a four-ply smash by "Red" Winkel. And while his name is still fresh in our minds let us pause just long enough to say that this little red head is a comer and if ho keeps improving as he has in -the past few tfames he will surely develop into a real sensation before the close of the present playing season. Twice last Sunday he recovered hard hit balls which Nelson had knocked down for perfect plays to first. Besides this he figured in a fast double play, which proved one of the features of the afternoon and came at a time when "it looked.- as if Cary had started a batting rally. Hats off to "Red." Nelson, who appeared on the hill for McHenry, looked like a mighty good man. He allowed the Cary outfit but six hits and with a trifle better support would have let them down with but one score. The story by innings was as follows : First inning: Knox sad Rossman both fanned. G. Meyers planted a single over short and M. Meyers struck out. One hit, no runs. Cary: Harrison was safe on G. Meyers' error. Beam was thrown out by Rossman, the' sacrifice sending Harrison to second. Bennett struck out. Beam went to third on a wild pitch. Hubert skied to Bolger. No hits, no runs^ Second inning: Buss fanned. Winkel out, Hubert to Rositer. Bolger was safe on Read's error and took second on Mead's single over short. Both runners advanced a peg on a passed ball, but died in their tracks when Nelson struck out. One hit, no runs. Cary: Haizman beat out a hit to Rossman, stole second and went to third on Rositer's strike-out, Mead being forced to make the peg to first. Read skied to Bolger and O'Connell fanned. One hit, no runs. Third inning: Read went into short center and gathered in Knox's fly. Rossman struck out G. Meyers was hit by a pitched ball and took first. He advanced a notch on M. Meyers' nifty single to center and scored when Read made a mess of Buss' speedy hopper. M. Meyers went to third on the error. Read made another error on Winkel's grounder and this so upset the Cary outfit that both M. Meyers and Buss scored before the gang got back to earth. Winkel was then caught stealing second. One hit, three runs. Cary: Norowetz singled to right and then was nailed at second when he attempted to stretch the hit a bit, the throw by Buss to second being fast and very accurate. Harrison and Beam both went out via Nelson to M. Meyers. 'One hit, no runs. Fourth inning: Bolger out, Hubert to Rositer. Mead almost knocked Hubert's pins from under him with a sharp wrap down thru the pitcher's box and over , second. Nelson rolled down to Rositer, Mead going on to second. Knox also rolled to first and for a while it looked as if Rositer would never gather in the ball, but }ie did so in time to nail Mead, who tried to score on the play. One hit, no runs. Cary: Bennett rolled to M. Meyers. Hubert skied to Bolger and Haizman was thrown out by Rossman. No hits, no runs. Fifth inning: Rossman skied to Read. G. Meyers singled over short and then was taught at first when he ventured too far away from the bag while Bennett was hatching him. M. Meyers rolled past first, Hubert taking the throw from Rositer for the put-out. One hit, no runs. Cary: Rositer was thrown out by G. Meyers, Read by Kelson and O'Connell by Winkel. N« hits, no runs. ^ Sixth inning: Buss struck out. Haizman made a pretty running stop of Winkel's fast roller dotal past short, but made a bad peg over first, Winkel never stopping until he had reached second. Winkel scored on Bolger's single past first and went all the way to third on the throw to the plate. Mead struck out. Nelson scored Bolger from third with a single to short. Hubert tried to catch Nelson off of first, bat Ms throw got second Rossman fanned. Two tifto runs. Cary: Norowetz singled to right and took second on Harrison's single in the same direction. Beam fanned. Norowetz ant! Harrison then pulled a perfect double steaL Bennett rolled to G. Meyers. Meyers in his haste to get Norowetz at home made an awful poor throw, with the result that both runners scored. Hubert was safe on Rossman's error, Bennett going to second. Both runners advanced a notch on Haizman's roller to M. Meyers. Bennett was nailed at the plate when he tried to steal home while Nelson was winding up. Poor time to wind up with a man on third. Two hits, two runs. Seventh inning: G. Meyers fanned. M. Meyers went out on a fly, which Harrison gathered in among the bleachers sitting back of third base. It was a nice catch. Buss struck out. No hits, no runs. Cary: Rositer was safe on G. Meyers' error. Read'hit to Winkel at short. Winkel ran over to second and then shot the pill to M. Meyers for a pretty double play. O'Connell . also was thrown out by "Red." It was Winkel's round by far. No hits, no runs. j Eighth inning: Just to show that he had at least one more surprise up his sleeve, "Red" planted one of Hubert's speedy ones into deep center for an honest-to-goodness home run. Off went the hats of the McHenry fans. Bolger shot a single into right and took second on Mead's out, Hubert to Rositer. Bolger started for third on Nelson's roller to short and was run to death between the two bags. About this time Nelson thought that he, too, would get in on the fun and started for second. He faired no better than did Bolger Two hits, one run. Cary: Norowetz out, Nelson to M Meyers. Harrison out, Winkel to M Meyers. Beam lifted to G. Meyers No hits, no runs. Ninth inning: Knox skied to Harrison. Rossman was thrown out by Harrison and G. Meyers was nailed by Haizman. No hits, no runs Cary: Bennett doubled to right and went to third when G. Meyers lost Hubert's roller,' which should have been an easy out. Hubert stole second and both runners scored on Haizman's single thru short. Haizman went to second on the throw-in. With a man on second, two runs already across the pan, no one out and only two runs neeeded to tie, it really looked bad for McHenry. Rositer skied to Bolger. Read walked. Nelson then tightened up and struck out the next two batters. Two hits, two runs. The tabula ted ^cpjre: Cary * 'v.

Libertyville Next Sunday The McHenry baseball team will clash with the Libertyville outfit on the home lot next Stnday afternoon.

Nelson, the elongated twirler who set' Cary down last Sunday with but six hits, will be on the firing line fbr the home crew, while Mead will again perform back of the log.
