WORKMAN, District Ifauufar W'-'% FJUl BEFORE THE STURDY H'BEMtY AGGREGATION ^ : DELEHANTY PITCHES VINE QAllfe AftD PROVES A WKALE IN PINCHES- MORE. 4 TO 2 m The McHenry Sox and Bprague War­ ners of Chicago hooked up for an after­ noon matinee at the McHenry ball yard last Sunday afternoon. The weather was perfect and seemed to be to the liking of one "Red" Delehanty and eight sturdy athletes attired in McHen­ ry Sox uniforms, as our boys copped the day's honors in a most satisfactory and pleasing manner. The game was a pretty one and in­ teresting thruout, while at times the scenery was of the sort that made us sit up and take notice. This was espe­ cially true in the fifth and seventh stanzas, when the enemy came within an ace of putting the game on ice. On both occasions our auburn headed -mid­ dleman took charge of the forts and with perfect fire succeeded in keeping the enemy at bay, sufficiently at least to stave off what then looked like sure defeat. The opposing battery worked nicely in every inning except two, viz., the fifth and eighth. In these two rounds the McHenry soldiers, .executed their deadly bombardment and before the enemy was able to check their ad­ vance the' game had been won, two runs in each of the two innings men­ tioned having been scored by the home lads. An eye witness to the afternoon's performance has kindly given us the story of the game and here it is: First innning: Furlong out, Dele­ hanty to Warner. Kennedy drew a base on balls. Krinker skied ont to Koob. Erickson met his fatg in the same manner. No hits, no runs. Riley /was hit by a pitched ball and went to second on Comiskey's neat sacrifioe, the latter being thrown out at first by Meier. Rending went out on a high foul to Uckerman. Warner skied (Hit to Johnson in right field, Johnson making a hard running catch. No hits, no runs. Second inning: Uckerman out, Com­ iskey to Warner. Busch fanned. John­ son struck at a wild pitch for his third strike and was safe at first. He was caught stealing second. No hits» no. runs. Koob out, Meier to Busch. Grant out, Kennedy to Busch. Brailsford out, MiUer tp Busph. ^o hits, no runs. • Third inning: MiUer struck out. Meier was hit by a pitched ball and went to first. Furlong whiffed. Ken­ nedy out, Koob to Warner. No hits, no runs. Geske out, Krinker to Busch. D^ler hanty singled between first and secondr Itiley shot, a hot one right at. Miller on third. Miller gobbled it up and shot the pill to Busch at first for a double, Delehanty having'star te4 for second on the hit. One hit, no runs. Fourth inning: Krinker out, Riley to Warner. Erickson singled to left. Uckerman rolled a fast one to Koob. The latter passed the ball along to Riley ?it second, who in turn shot it to Warner just in time to complete the double. One hit, no runs, Comiskey out, Miller to Busch. Bending went out on a roller to Busch at first. Warne# out, Kennedy to Busch. No hits, no'runs. Fifth inning: Busch was safe at first when Bending dropped his fly. Johnson sent the runner around to third on a single to. right, Johnson taking second on the throw-in to third. With no one dead and runners sta­ tioned on second and third things looked most serious for Delehanty and the McHenry outfit. However, "Red" pulled himself together and struck out the next three men who ^faced him. One hit, no runs. Kjaob out, Kennedy to Busch. Grant doubled to left. Brailsford beat out an infield hit towards third base, Grant taking third. Brailsford stole second while Geske was striking out. Dele­ hanty singled to center, the.hit scor­ ing Grant and Brailsford. Riley skied to Furlong in the left garden. Three hits, two earned runs. Sixth inning: Kennedy out, Koob to Warner. Krinker fanned and so did Erickson. No hits, no runs. Comiskey flied out to Erickson in center. Bending out, Meier to Busch. Waiter singled past third and stole second. Koob drew a base on balls. Grant went out on a high fly to Erick­ son in center. The fielder had to sprint some to get under the ball. One hit, no runs. Seventh inning: Uckerman was safe when Koob messed up his grounder. Busch was given a free ticket to first. Johnson singled to center, Uckerman scoring, while Busch went around to third. Johnson went to seoond on the throw-in. Miller fanned. Meier sin­ gled to right, Busch scoring. Meier went to seoond on the throw-in. Fur­ long fanned. Kennedy out, Comiskey to Warner. Two hits, two runs. Brailsford singled to left. Geske rolled a hot one down to Busch at first. Instead of playing for Geske, Busch shot the pill to second, but Brailsford beat the ball by a yard. For some reason or other Brailsford kept right on going and was caught at third by a breath. While all this was happening Geske went to second. Delehanty fanned. Riley cutt, Kennedy to Busch. One hit, no runs. Eighth inning*; Krinker and Erick son both struck, out. Uck$r(nan out, Delehanty m;Warner. Jtfo hits, runs. Comiskey was safe on Ericksoq's error. Comiskey stole second. Bend ^.^truqk out. - took second on the Koob sent a sting­ ing single to right, on which Comiskey and Warner scored. Grant sacrificed, Koob going t6 second, Grant being thrown out at first, by Moier. Koob took third on a passed ball. Brails­ ford went out on a line drirp to Kriftlb* er. Two hits, two runs. - Ninth inning: Busch fanned. £ohn<? son out, Riley to Warner. Miller struck out.

Meetings here are be­ coming more numerous as time goes on and we believe that the time is not far off when most of the societies of this vicinity will make this village the place for holding their annual outings, picnics and meetings. Two weeks ago the officers and agents of the People's Life Insurance company came here for an outing on our beautiful river. • Tomorrow a joint meeting of the Lake and McHenry County Medical societies will take place at the Riverside House here. One hundred invitations have been sent out for this event, jind, while it is only natural to expect that all will not respond, it may be safely estimated that at least fifty will be present and Landlord Gans is making preparations accordingly. The meeting will be called at 10:30, when the following program will take place: W elcome" Address „N. L. Seelye, M. D. Paper...Some Toxemias of Pregnancy L. H. Tombaugh, M. D.

RAY OPPEKOELT AT GREEK BAY Ray Opfergelt of Woodstock, who played center field for the McHenry Soz during the post two months, has been picked up by the Chicago White Sax and is now at Green Bay, Wis., where he is.beipg given a try out with the team of that city. His work in the game here on Sept. 9, when the Chicago White Sox played in McHen­ ry, made a most favorable impression upon Manager James Callahan and he looked good enough to the big leaguer to be given a try out in league com­ pany. It is a ten to one shot that he shows the 41'stuff" at Green Bay and we look for Ray to be in a pretty fast company when the season of 1915 opens. SAME NEXT SUNDAY The fast Riverview squad of Chicar go, who trimmed up the McHenry bunch 3 to 2 on September 6, will again appear in McHenry next Sunday afternoon, when the local outfit will try hard to win back the lost laurels. The Chicagoans are a classy bunch of ball players and are capable of holding their own with most of 'em, but Mc­ Henry believes that they can master them. Turn out next Sunday and watch a real classy game of the na­ tional pastime, ^he customary prices will prevail, while the oontest will start at 2:30. no • Or, • Jilts,: affW® 1~ TRAVELING WITH CHAUTAUQUA Mrs. Bel Gallaher-Wooster, a former resident of McHenry, where she at­ tended high school and graduated with the class of '03, has put in the season just closed „with the Redpath Chautau­ qua system.

Matthews on Monday evening of this week and from there journeyed across the street to remind Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Wentworth of their twentieth wed­ ding anniversary. Altho the victims of the surprise were caught totally unaware of what was to happen, they soon prepared things for the entertainment of their guests. Busy hands soon had tables arranged and before many minutes had passed all were seated and enjoyinp themselves at progressive cinch. This form of amusement continued for an hour or more, after which ice cream and cake were served. Mrs. Daily and James Perkins were awarded first honors at cincb, while Mrs. E. F. Matthews and Jos. C. Holly cane in for the consolation prizes. Mr. and Mrs. Wentworth were pre­ sented with a half dozen silver dessert spoons as a memento of the occasion. Those present were Messrs. and Mes- dames F. E. Cobb, J. C. Holly, Wm. Spencer, James Perkins, S. S. Giddings, G. C. Bosnia; Mrs. S. E. Young, Mrs. E. F. Matthews and Mrs. Daily. 1 Everyone present had a fine time.
