Ed had a 690 serial to help his average, if he needed any help. The MCHS lads can sorely show the MAACS something when it comes to making free throws.

They swing into action again this week and now that they know just how good those eats are the competition for the last half of the schedule promises to be a bit keeper. Overton, acting as hooking Manager for the MAACS, was fortunate to secure the Prehn Collegians for the game last night. When fans consider the fact that this same team has played the Chicago Bruins and teams of that calibre, they begin to wonder where they ever heard of McHenry. Maybe the basketball record of the MAACS doe* get around a ttttla,after all. " ~ : A BtfS Writes #&!t L6s An geles that he is enjoying a week r»f itpeemg in that fair coast city.

The game was fast and furious throughout with the intense speed of McHenry, coupled with some accurate basket shooting, in spurts, triumphing over the spirit of Huntley's ambitious basketeers. McHenry used their fast breaking Offensive .to good effect during the first quarter and it started to look like it would be a one-sided contest, but before anything definite could be established Huntley started hitting i scoring but three field goala in the basket from all corners and it last half. ,t :U V f ,'t's ; PREHN'S LATE RALLY DEFEATS MAACS 29-25 Locals Led 17-10 At Half, But Foriow Pace Tells--Ponies Continue ^ Winning Streak Prehn's Collegians proved to be able to outlast the MAACS in last night's battle and won. out by virtue of a second half rally that blotted out some mighty nice work by the locals in the first half, that had piled up a safe-looking 17-10 lead at the intermission.

The Waulcegan Wildcats were the first ones to bow to the MAACS at Wauconda Thursday night before a mere looked like the touted McHenry defensive had flMlIy b^h solved. Following an 11-2 lead at the quarter-- a score similar in size to that run up in many a game by these same lads before they found they could make baskets--the belated attack of the losers carried them to a 17 to 12 score at half time and made it look like a struggle. McHenry started oat again in the second half, but that dogged attack of {he Failmen kept pace with the step by step until the final period started to wane when the speed of the locals carried them into the lead by a safe margin, safe enough to allow McCracken to send an entire new team onto the floor and give his boys a wee bit of rest for the St. Mary's game at Woodstock the next night. Patzke and Frisby led the scoring list with 15 and 8 points respectively, but Anderson, Brittain and Wegener were all in there and playing for all they were worth all the way through the game: There is plenty of speed in every position on the team and the boys are now applying the fundamentals stressed so heavily by their coach, to their ability and are finding it produces results that enable them to win gggpes. The boys were hot on freethrows in this game, making eleven out of twelve for a very neat average. It will surprise one to find how many games are, won and lost in this department of tho game alone.

Things kept on improving in the third quarter until the MAACS had gained a small advantage, only to have the Waukegan lads stage a comebck of their own and recover up an early lead.

FRYE IS AGAIN VICTOR IN RIFLE CLUB SHOOT Capm Man Emulating Bobby Jones Aa Marksman--Ex-service Men Make Poor Showing Led by Sidney Frye of Capron and with three ex-service men bringing up the rear, the McHenry Rifle club held the Small-Bore Trophy Match January 15 at their new range in the Peterson Garage . building. Sidney walked away with high honors, with a majority of twelve points over Frank Klapperich, who occupied second place with 356 out of a possible 400. This makes the third of nve cups that the Capron man has taken back with him this season. The first five men on the list are to represent McHenry in their first match against Elgin. • Becoming remorseful over the poor showing of three of their members the ex-service men of the Rifle club are thinking seriously of sending the trio to the old folks home. Perhaps the home for the blind would be more appropriate. Small-Ik*® Trophy Match Ten shots each at prone, sitting, kneeling, standing. Possible score 400.

And from the Peterson, f same paper: "McCracken has a mighty clever little outfit and it will take a firrft class aggregation to keep out in front of it for a whole game." One of those before and after stories, I guess. t Basketball certainly holds the crater of the stage in McHenry at present, but there is one athletic fan who is still* working away to put McHenry on the map in the baseball world. He is Walt Freund and Walt is proving himself the best friend that baseball has had in recent years. Aided by a few of his reliables he is working out plans for an A1 park for the next season as, \%gll as an A-l team to go with it. And one mustn't forget that Anderson plays center for our coming lads in high school. Teddy played the games over the week-end with a sore hand, but even then he handled the ball as well as any other player on the floor and he has, in addition, a deceptive stride that takes him considerably faster than he appears to be traveling. With a little more experience and development of his basket eye he sMuld rank with the best of them ere the season is complete. Dundee High set up some sort of a record for Northern Illinois high school scoring in basketball when they soundly thrashed the St. Mary's green squad Friday night 77-5. The second team also won by the one-sided score of 29-1. Steussy is having one of those "off" years with his lads that coaches are so familiar with, after having had a run of prosperity during the stay of the Leonards and a few others.

Hebron is the latest foe to fall before the ever increasing attack of the invaders from the west, while McHenry holds as their chief claim to fame a pair of victories over the Crystal Lake "champs," who have since gone the way of all early season favorites. Looks like a good year for the Orange and Black MCHS teams as both McHenry and Marengo travel under the same monogram and colors.. McHenry was well represented at the Cary ski jump last Sunday even though the weather was rather prohibitive to good performances. To most of us a ski jump is a ski jump and a slijrht difference of forty feet or so means nothing at all. The falling snow blinded the spectators so that it made it hard to witness the flight of the jumpers and the biggest miracle of all is just how the participants managed to find the ground safely,- being finable to distinguish between the falling and the fallen snow. 8 3 7 The McHenry Lights showed that they are improving steadily by trimming the visiting Juniors 11-7 in a game that was more or less crowded with skill and humor. Huntley was held to one freethrow during the first half while McHenry was amassing seven poipts. From there en the boys just coasted to victory and won by 11 to 7 score. ! Marengo pulled the big surprise when they stepped out and" took Woodstock into camp on the Blue and White floor by the small margin of five points. It was a real game all the way through as far as thrills were concerned, but, if some reports mean* anything, the whole affair was a bit sloppy when classy basketball, or the lack of it, is considered. Woodstock was held to one lonely basket in the last half, after enjoying an early lead that looked safe enough at the time. However, the final score was 19 to 14 and, in view of the fact that these same Marengo lads took the Cranemen of Hebron into camp the following evening, 27 to 10, it looks like they may have deserved the victory.

It was but a one-point victory, but it looks mighty sweet on paper. When Huntley ran up 19 points on McHenry's crack high school team they accomplished something no other team has been able to do this year. The former high total was 17. Even so, Huntley lost, but Coach Fail's boys must be given credit for having plenty of determination and with a little brushing up on defense they might give trouble to some more of these so-called "crack" teams about the county that risa and faQ with equal ease.

Sunday's game started out to be one of those games to which the fans have become accustomed to of late, but before it was over it turned out to be a contest which had them all on their feet cheering a comeback by the MAACS that made them look as .433 they haven't since the beginning of .400 the season.

The Ponies took the Crystal Lake Merchants, champions of the Lake City last year, into camp in the same easy way they have been trampling most of their opponents this season. The final score was 33 to 19 and makes it sound like it was more of a game than it really was. "Short-shot" Harrison got started in the second half and sank three pretty ones to keep the locals out in front comfort" ably.

Flora kept Elgin in the running with a onehanded shot and Helgren added a freethrow. Whiting then came through with his first basket of the game just before he was taken out and the MAACS then drew out the defense with a stalling attack, enough to permit them to sink three baskets while the best the sinking Speiss could do was a tap-in shot by Helgren. That last half of the game was worth a lot to the MAACS as it gave them an even break in their league games so far with one victory and one loss.
