Schoewer, Davidson and LaBahn exhibited their wares on the mound for McHenry and each in turn seemed to be capable of handling the situation admirably- Schoewer started the game when Davidson failed to appear on time. He got through two innings by bearing down in the pinches.

He allowed one hit, the first man to face him getting a single, and . walked one. Neither one advanced farther than first. Busy Week-ead Ahead This victory has the locals all i primed up for tike crowded week-end that brings two Elgin teams and the Wonder Late abnegation to town. Friday night the Jura Crane Service nine from Elgin will provide the opposition for the twilight game which will start at 6 o'clock, daylight sivii* time- Schoewer will 'start on the mmmd and- will give way- to Bill Kreutzer, ex-Legiori hurler, • if every i thing goes well. Saturday, Decoration Day* the A's will attempt to decorate the Wonder Lake nine as a reward for the victory the latter scored over the A's in a pre-season practice game. Since then the locals have rounded into some semblance of a ball team and are out for redemption. The mound assignment in this contest will be handled by Erwin, a newcomer, whose recommendation is signed by Johnsburg. I Last season Erwin pitch«i the Dundee i Peerless to a one-sided victory over !

Lefty Davidson appeared on the dund against the Summer's Grays Kenosha and yielded eight hits in ve innings which were good for two Chilis. Quite a few of his old admirers were out to see him work and Were really glad to see him in a uniform. Lefty is getting pretty old and though he still possesses plenty of Stuff on the ball his condition isnt Jnducive to the best kind of baseball. ^Whether or not he will again appear $>n the. local mound remains to be •een.

I CRYSTAL LAKE WINS CHBLS' TENNIS HATCH Coach Metcalf brought his girls' ^|ennis squad to McHenry last Wedesday and triumphed over Miss oherty's squad three matches to one. «< 1 tough task of handling the Elgin Nationals a trimming when they arrive here Sunday. Seems the A's take a delight in trimming up the Watch city nines, they having two shutouts in the last, two games played. The fana down there don't like it so they fcte sending up one of their strongest teams to gain revenge- Schoewer will also be in shape for them t-o look over. They undoubtedly have heard of him as he is the chief offender in the two shutouts. » Double Plays In First Inning The first inning gave the fans a sample of what to expect when each team came through with a snappy double play to thwart any attempt to score. Thomas opened with a single over second, but went dowa with Wteyers when the latter smashed a bounder at Dahn, Winkel being the middle man. In the home half Bacon walked after Dahn struck out. Buhrow also walked and then Pela Schumacher smaked into a double play, Thomas to Smith to Weyers. In the second Schoewer exhibited his ability by striking out Lots after Herman had singled and gone to third on Smith's first double. With but one out this was a big help. Irons closed the inning with a roller to Winkel. McHenry also threatened in the third, with Dahn getting his first hit of the year after Fay had singled to left. With men on second and third, Buhrows was called oat on strikes for the third out. The ice was broken when Kenosha came through with their first run when three solid blows were peeled off Davidson after two were gone. Smith got his second double, Lots singled to score him aod then Irons came through with another smash. A passed ball allowed the men to go to second and third, but Lefty fanned- Dilly to escape further punishment. Aroused by this display of strength the A's stepped out and scored enough runs to win the ball game. S. Whiting got the first of his three succes sive hits to start the fifth. Fay also Teams ...4-2 .1-4 3-1 July 9 *......2-1 ......2-4 1-3 Hawley pitched a wonderful game of ball against the Algonquin Cubs last Sunday and held them to one lonely run until the ninth inning when a barrage of hits pushed five runs across the plate for the southerners and left Wonder Lake trailing 6-1. Andy had the misfortune to sprain his ankle in the fifth and then his old zip started to leave him. He managed to stagger along without serious results until the ninth. After the five-run assault by the Cubs the Wonder Lake nine came back with a run, but couldnt get going long enough to tie up the score. The brand of ball put up by these two teams was very high class, the Cubs showing the fans a very fast outfield that, continually robbed the Lakers of almost certain hits. Wonder Lake, despite the fact that five errors were chalked up against them, showed much improvement over their 3-21 previous appearances. They are ...1-2 gradually rounding into a well-mould- ...8-41 ed team and, though their win and ...4-2 loss percentage isn't so impressive, it must be remembered that they have been taking on some very strong opponents in their preliminary game*.

WOODSTOCK Schaefer won the decision over Kinney in a pitcher's battle when Woodstock went down in defeat before the local Legion Junior nine last Saturday In a game that was filled with thrills, despite the fact that the errors were altogether too numerous. Schaefer allowed but six hits and struck out fifteen while McHenry pounded Kinney for ten safeties which, coupled with ten Woodstock errors, were manufactured into thirteen runs. Kinney fanned thirteen. Lock wood was the chief member of the McHenry attack with four hits to his credit. He scored three of the 13 runs.

The game Saturday--Decoration Day--at 3 o'clock Daylight Saving time at Johnsburg park, with the Algonquin Cubs should be a fitting opener for the season as the downriver team is clean and fast and they will need all they got to beat the Johnsburg boys.
