J Woodstock Lions have run into some t<;ugh lock this year and their attendance has suffered greatly as a result. The recent epidemic that has visited Woodstock has. cut their crowds to the minimum and as a result they are considerihg cancelling all remaining home games and confining their activities to road games. The Lions have always been strong rivals of the MAACS and no doubt they will reconsider their present plans when the time for the Woodstock- McHenry game rolls round. The high school will entertain the future county champs, Crystal Lake, here Friday night in what should be a real contest. Those who saw the Delavan game will agree that M'.- Cracken has his men coming along in - fine shape and has added an offense to the already fine defense his men put on. Crystal Lake, has already piled up an impressive string of victories including. Harvard, Hebron and Elgin. That record should speak for itself but it'll take another good game on their part Friday night to make it speak so that the lads will understand. PALACE PRATTLE <3hiries Freund's league leaders started their second half of the league schedule in impressive fashion as they Fay, took two out of three from "Peanuts" Weber's middle place five. They had the misfortune to lose the first game by one lonely maple but that only spurred them on and they ended up with a 923 game, a count that would have ranked them as holders of the high single game had not Ed Smith's bowlerS gone wild in their last effort and piled up a 968 count to make-it two out of three over their rivals for the cellar. Ed himself, with 246 was the big gun in this attack and Vic Freund helped considerably by topping off an average evening's labor with 221. Geo. Weber, of the Freund crew, was the big shot of the evening when he turned in three two hundred games for a 636 total. George is getting to be the regular tycoon of the leaders and has turned in some mighty nice scores of late. Forester League Standing MAA08-- Kinsala,# f Overton* f Freund, c .

Captain Overton was out of the game with a sprained ankle-obtained in the Hampshire game and his absence was very noticeable until th® boys finally settled down in the last half and displayed a little basketbaQ. The game started very slowly, but gradually speeded up and finally terminated in what fans will probably refer to as the most thrilling contest of the year. Barrington started off to a four one lead on baskets by Boyd and Guberman. McHenry counted on Whiting's freethrow. The MAACS1 passes were terrible in this half and there is no other name /or it. Their (hots were wild and their timing worse. Both teams were using the j delayed offense and the defense look- I ed good. Freund finally got going and scored -three times from under the basket on follow-up shots to give McHenry a 11-9 lead at half time. Last Sunday against Libertyville th# | MAACS ran up 18 points the firs* I quarter so that one can see the differi ence in their shooting, though some ! of the difference was no doubt caused j by the alertness of the Jewel Teas j The last half was a real thriller it there ever was one. Neither team was able to penetrate the other's de I fense with any degree of steadiness, i but both of them certainly tried. The [ MAACS showed flashes of their oli# form and worked better than in the first period, but their shots still weni not clicking. The man to man de fense turned loose by Barrington wa^ almost inpenetrable, but players broke loose at times to count from the field» In turn McHenry's guards were put* ting up gne whale of a defense an<J kept Boyd and Reusch bottled up; tight. Neither team was able to forge ahead and at no time during the game was McHenry more than four points ahead.

The word "PARCO" has come to mean the very utmost in motor fuel performance to thousands of motorists thruout the land. r The word "PARCO" is coined from the . kkitials of the "Producers and Refiners Corporation." PARCO is the trade name under which the products of this corporation are marketed. Producers and Refiners Corporation is one Of America's major independent producing, refining and marketing companies. Its holdings and refinery equipment include: 650,000 acres of oi! land leases; 320 wells producing 5,000 barrels of crude oil daily; three completely modern refineries with an aggregate capacity of 20,000 barstorage capacity ETHYL ANT1 KNOCK COMPOUND GASOUW OOPORATIOM tank cars and 1,400 miles of pipe tine. In addition to its own crude oil production the Producers &. Refiners (Corporation is closdf affiliated with the Prairie Oil &. Gas Company and thru this connection has unrestrained selec tion of the highest grade crude oils in America. Then, by treating these superior crudes thro Parco's exclusive patented processes a PAROO GASOLINE so pure, so clean, so free of gum and sulphur is produced that it stands alone in the quality field and is recommended and approved by UNITED LABORATORIES as fuel for Gasoline Pressure Appliances in the various states.
