Unlike former years, Hebron this year has a weak team and being aware of this fact McHenry went a bit easy with the boys and therefore did not run up the score as they could have done had they so wished. However, it was bad enough as it was, as Hebron was able to gather in but 14 points, while our heroes amassed a total of 44. The game was played M the Hebron town hall, which is also used for danc­ ing purposes, consequently the floor was a bit slippery. On account of this condition the boys were some little time in getting their bearings, but when once squared off there was no stopping the McHenry players, as the above score indicates. A feature of the game was the strict enforcement of the rules, which natur­ ally resulted in many fouls being called on both sides. However, McHenry proved t^e worst offender, a total of fourteen fouls being called on our boys, while nine were chalked up against the Hebron lads. The McHenry team played its usual strong and heavy game. The Bonslett brothers, as forwards, displayed their alertness and good judgment to the utmostsatisfaction of the local fans who accompanied them, while Petesch, at center, was also there, batting the ball in excellent shape, and also threw some pretty baskets. MiNer, who re­ lieved Petesch in the second, also played his customary ntasterful game and showed the boys that he also knew a thing or two about playing the center position. G. Bacon and Richardson, as guards, were in the game from be­ ginning to end, their work, like that of the other home players, being fault­ less. All| told, the home boys gave a very satisfactory account of themselves and once more dispels the report that they oannot play good ball on a foreign floor. < The line-up and score follow: Hebron (14) Haste rt Andrews Ryan Hiiwley De Young * McHenry (44Jr F.

Owing to some misunderstanding the Woodstock-McHenry game, which was to have taken place at Woodstock last Saturday evening, has been postponed indefinitely. The home boys were very much disappointed on receiving word from the county seat that the game could not be played as arranged. Our lads were in the very best shape possi­ ble for the contest and felt confident that they could whip the county seat- ers right on their own floor. While Woodstock knows that they are up against the real article when they play McIIenry, yet they are unwilling to give McHenry credit for their ability as was tooted in their write-up of the game, which was played here some weeks ago. McHenry is not worrying over theii^ chances in the least and with an even break of luck are sure that they can slip it over the Woodstockites when the two teams meet for the champion­ ship of McHepry county, which prob­ ably will be some time within the course of the next two or three weeks.
