The score at the finish of the afternoon's pastime stood -3 to 1, with McHenry clinging to the big end. Sahlberg graced the mound for the home squad and pitched a splendid article of ball. He allowed the vis­ itors but three hits and fanned twelve men. With perfect support he would have shut out the visitors. Johnny Koob, our husky little second baseman, proved the hero with the stick, getting two two-base wallops. John Grant, McHenry's catcher, also got his name in the hero column with a circuit clout, which came in the sev­ enth. The game by innings was as follows: First inning: Miranda fanned. Mann went out on a fly to Brailsford. Walker was safe at first when Warner went after his grounder between first autf second. Warner got the hit all right, but made a bad throw - to Koob, ! who ran to cover first. Kelley out, Koob to Warner. No hits, no runs. Riley went out on a fly to Walker in left field. Comiskey was retired on a fly to Mitchell in right. Brailsford singled to left center. Opfergelt out, Miranda to Mann. One hit, no runs. Second inning: Donald safe on Com­ iskey 's error.

Mitchell was caught stealing. One hit, one run. Bending went out on a fly to Alex­ ander in center. Warner out, Donald to Mann. Koob doubled to left and went to third on a passed ball.

Mann and Walker fanned. No hits, no runs. Grant singled and a moment later was caught off first, Kelley getting the assist. Sahlberg struck out. Riley singled to center and stole -second.

Koob doubled to left and stole third. 'Grant drew ai pass, and started for second on the first ball pitched. Wallace threw the ball to Lindsey a't second and Koob started for home.

The boys are battling with the fast Huntley bunch at the Woodstock fair grounds this afternoon. The Tom Powell's PeeifttesS Minstrels band will give a concert at the ball park next Sunday afternoon. Don't miss it. Since game Sunday, Aug. 16, the players on the East Troy, Wis., team have all the respect in the world for "Red" Delehanty. Taking into consideration that ihe motor boat races at Pistakee Bay pulled many away, together with the threat­ ening weather, the attendance last Sunday was splendid. Grant's home run won for him the large pennant which has occupied a conspicuous place over the home plac­ ers' bench during the past few weeks. The pennant was donated by G. V. Mc­ Allister. F. L. McOmber, the enterprising WestfSide hardware merchant, put up a bat before the game last Sunday and told the manager that the willow would go to the McHenry player making the first two base hit during the contest. Koob won the stick with his two-bag- ger in the second inning. Manager Walsh informs us that there is a great demand for the ser­ vices of "Red" Delehanty these days. He has had several telephone com­ munications and a number of letters askiDg for the services of the speed merchant, but the popular manager says "Red" will remain with the Mc­ Henry team. "Red" likes McHenry and it looks as tho it would take more than ordinary inducements to tear him away from the club. 'i GAME NEXT SUNDAY Next Sunday the Chicago Warrens, who defeated the home team by a 7 to 1 score on Sunday, July 19, will be here for a return game. The McHen­ ry Sox have not forgotten * this severe trimn:i::£ ^nd anxious to get back at the Warrens, which assures the fans a lively set-to for next Sunday afternoon^--The Warrens will faoe a different outfit from that of July 19 next Sunday afternoon and they will be forced to exert, themselves to the limit in order to get away with this game. McHenry feels quite confident that they can slip it over the Warrens, but are aware of the fact that they will have to play the hardest kind of ball to turn the tables. The game will be called at the usual hour and the regular admission prices will prevail. 8 r n 11 s Two base bltfr-Kfob «. Struck out by Siililberg, 12; by Kelly, &. Banes oj» balls--Oir KHly,;!
