All Marv did was to hurl * mighty fine ball game, collect two hits and a run on offense, and pick up nine assists and two putouts afield. Besides this he fanned nine. Sehre provided the real punch of the game with three hits out of four times up which includes a double' with the bases loaded that broke the tie and also the camel's back. - ' This Cubs-White -Sox charity g*«te j, : ^scheduled for September 9tn is a f^J^great idea.

It was a well played game throughout and the, Lakers have nothing but praise for .the Ivanhoe lads. Seems the opposing pitcher was too much for them and piled up such an impressive array of strikeouts that it was impossible to acptfmpiish anything. Manuses and Kaplin were the battery mates for the losers. The Mc- Henry A's are to meet both teams before the season ends. Watched the revived White Sox play ball the other day and was particularly impressed by young Billy Sullivan, the ex-Notre Dame boy. Billy got three hits that day, one a line double to right. He handled himself very neatly around third though charged with two errors on throws ; that seemed to indicatethe scorer had a grudge against him as both of them could have been caught without any need for applause. Anyway, if the Sox don't want him, Walt Freund A says he could find some place for him. A feature double header is scheduled for the McHenry boys next Sunday with Algonquin and Woodstock as the opposing teams. The games will start at 1:15. Doc Mengs has his boys primed for this game and expects to hand the A's a trimming, as Woodstock gave, the local's a mighty hard battle in a twilight game several months ago. Algonquin also "is no setup with the impressive string of victories they have behind them,0 including one over Wonder Lake with Manuses on the mound. . Thoughts of football are rapidly filling the air and the newspapers "and when one stops to think it Isn't so long to wait until the season .jopens. Northwestern should prove to' be an interesting team to watch this year with a strong team coming back to meet a &tromj schedule. And if anyone thinks the schedule isn't strong just what would you consider Nebraska, Notre Daifte and Southern Cal for the first three games* of the season, or any three for -that matter. Wisconsin will also be on the map this fall with sixteen letter men. returning for Thistlewaite to use as a nucleus. For further details about the badger football Situation see Herman Nye. DOUBLE HEADER AT WONDER LAKE NEXT SUNDAY, AUG. 25 A double header is scheduled to take place at Womjer Lake next Sunday afternoon. The first game will start at 1 o'clock, between the Ringwood Old-Timers and Wonder Lake. The batteries for the Old-Timers are said to total their weight at 1100 pounds. The second game will be between Wonder Lake and Spring Grove and will start about' 2:30 o'clock. * The kitten ball league closes next week Thursday so be sure you watch for thentfxt three games.

The Merrimacs came Out prepared to do battle, both physical 9.nd verbs! but finally decided to aettlfe down and play ball after failing to get very far via the verbal route. At this they proved of little avail against LaBahn, who was hurling in his. regular style. They nicked him for eight hits but only one were these paired to produce runs. Marv also fanned nine, walked three and had the impressive record of«tayo putouts and nine assist?. On offense he batted cleanup and delivered twice the first of the two hits starting around the first ran.of the game.' ... : • j. J ;v- Seb chimed in with three hits,"one a double with the bases loaded and the score tied, ffe also drove in a run in the second when the Score was still wee figures. LaBahn threw out the .first three men to face him but McHenry also Went out in order in the first,- The Merrimacs threatened in the second when Giange singled and went to third when Pfla dropped LaBahn's throw for the third out. Derrick then fanned. The A's returned the attack with a broadside which netted two runs. LaBahn got the local's first hit and line single to center. Schumacher tapped to deep short and LaBahn was safe at the plate, having gone to third on a passed ball and a wild pitch. Johnson popped to Derrick. M.~ Whiting rolled to Sandy and was out at first, Schumacher going to Second. S. Whiting singled to center scoring Schumacher. The Merrimacs got their only twohit inning in the third and looked for a while like they might go places, but some neat work; got him out of trouble with only one run home. £. Howell and Prasso both fanned- Gorman doubled to right when the high fly escaped M. Whiting. Sandy walked. Steinbauen singled between short and third and Gorman scored but Dahn's return throw was cut off by LaBahn and Sandy was caught between second and third for the third out. Things didnt go so, well in the fourth when the visitors took the lead with two runs on one hit and a costly error. It all started with a walk. Mullens then singled and Giange went to third. Howelll tapped to Melvin and he took' the play at first. Mullens stole second. Derrick then fanned , and when J- Howell raised art easy1 fly to left it looked like the worst was over, but the ball popped out. of .Dahn's glove and the leading run scored. •' - LaBahn tried to start things with a single in the home fourth but couldn|fc get any farther than second, jfohns'on moved him over there when he was hit on the elbow with a pitched ball. From, the fourth to the eighth the Merrimacs got one hit an inning but LaBahn was never in trouble except when Harold Freulnd's error put men on first and third with two out* Prasso tapped to Schumacher for the third out. The Athletics fied the score without a hit in the fifth. There was a little jaw-work' introduced by the "city lads" in this inning but to no avail. Joe Freund > popped to Petramaol. Harold Freund was safe when Mullens handled his puny tap too carelessly. He stole second while Bacon was fanning. Bulyrows batted for Dahn and walked, the fourth ball being a wild pitch that" struck the edge of the ptate and evaded the catcher which enabled the runner to score. The argument put up t hy the losers was that the ball was a block ball as long as it had hit the Tjase. After alittle futile searching in the unfamiliar rule book they finally decided that their imagination was working overtime. , 'And then came the dawn. McHenry, tired of the petty bickering which had been going on continually, staged a rally that sewed up the game. Schumacher started with a hit to third that took a bad hop and went to left field. Johnson attempted to sacrifice but Mullene chose to pick Pela at second but his throw-was wide and low and both men were safe. 'Mel Whiting then laid down a perfect bunt along the third base line and the bases were loaded. Seb . Whiting chimed in with his double on the first ball pitched and two ruhs scored/Joe Freund tapped an easy one to Gorman who threw home but M Whiting was safe when Howell dropped the ball. Harold Freund and Harold Bacon both fanned. Schumacher's- single with two down in the seventh failed tp start anything and Seb's third hit of the game in the eighth also went for naught. Algonquin-Woodstock Sunday Next Sunday will find the supreme test for the locals coming to the fore with a double header scheduled, for the home grounds. Algonquin and Woodstock, two teams that gave the locals some real runs for their money in twilight games earlier in the sea son, have been booked to provide the stellar attraction. Both these teams have impressive records for the season and should provide an interesting afternoon. Ervin and LaBahn are to take care of the slab work and there is no doubt but what the numerous players on the A's role will be in the lineup sometime during the games. « The big affair is scheduled tOj/Start at 1:15 sharp.
