V«1 ' . -y' After watching John maul the pins in his first appearance since his big moment the rest of the single boys in the KC league have about decided to take the step. John smashed the maples for a 244 game after missing a one-pin spare in the ninth frame. This enabled him to secure a 617. series for the big portion of1 the nigh't's honors, despite the fa£t that the team he captains lost two 6ut of three of the Conways. V The high school baskeball team gets away to its 1932 start Saturday night against the Elgin B team at the local gym. Looks like the starting lineup will read something like Kreutzer and "Whiting at forwards, Captain George Kinsala at center with Howard and Lockwood at guards. Mayhaps Tonyan, Walkington, Larkin, Mooney or Meyers will see action at one time or another as Coach Orr is as yet in doubt aS to whom will come through. Dar Granger was just about the difference between defeat and victory for the Pleasure Club in their match with the Frett Specials Tuesday night. Darwin was hot and piled them up in the pits for a 651 series, which included a top game of 242. At that he blew one spare in the eighth frame or he might have taken a free greasing from John Bolger, now the leader fjr M*h score for the week. Ed. Linke, well remembered by local fans as the stellar Johnsburg fturler just a few years ago, set two records in the Valley league this year and received quite a laudable mention over the air Sunday night. Pitching for Davenport he fanned seventeen Rock Island batters in one game and retired 230 via the strikeout route for a season's record. Now we shouldn't feel so badly about some of those times when he was settihg us ' d^wn in the same manner., Another spitball hurler ha* received his release from the majors and is now a free agent. Clarence Mitchell, veteran of the Giant staff and formerly with the Cards, was made a free agent. Whether or not the Reds of Brooklyn, the old folks hopes of the majors, will gather him into the fold, is not known at present, but it is likely that he will retire. Waite Hoyt, ball player and dietician, also got his walking papers. OLD TIMERS LEAGUE The league leading Bicklers wound Up the first round of the Old Timers league with a 2526 total for the higli feeries of the night and secured first place. Bill Bickler was the big gun with a 602 count after a poor start. Jim Perkins kept the Schaefers in second place with some neat counts. The teams are "how reorganized and B new captain has replaced 'Grandpa' Hughes, A1 Barbian being the fortunate kegler. A1 now has a reputation to live up to (or down). Granger and Hughes with their quintets will have to set up the feed.

Grand Knight Nye pulled another of his surprise games with 203 in the last game but his five wer€ nosed out by seventeen pins. Conway's won the middle game from Bolgers by a margin of 9 pins for their close game of the evening.

The Big Ten has been rather drab around these parts this year with Purdue and Michigan carrying off the honors, but when Notre Dame comes through all their alumni, synthetic and real, gather heart and cheer.

JJuus ten 12,329 t The Old Timers have completed 1&eir first round" of the season and have reorganized for the second flight. Sttangely enough the high-low system of picking them for the new teams resulted in each team having an identical average. The new captains will be the same as the former except that Alderman Barbian is replacing Hughes on the fourth squad. Granger and Hughes and their men have to supply the grub to the winners in the Bickler-Schaefer group, the Bickler team winning the title by 117 pins. ~ .. Ice skating has made its appear- •pee with the advent of winter and the nightly bonfire on the banks of Boone creek is getting to be more inviting than ever. Some of the lads simply couldn't wait and began skat- >g while it was just a bit risky, but the continued cold soon removed the danger. Realization that the water in the creek is more than ten feet deep should make them stop and wonder what would happen should they plunge through, but the carefree spirit of youth erases any dead of . doubt as to security. Huppy Smith's Number Two. outfit stepped out and enjoyed a gala night, after trailing the three other teams for the greater part of the season, and lunged into second place in the Forester League. Aided by a 947 game they totaled 2702 for the evening to cop all honors and gained 190 pins over their nearest competitors. They are now but 20 pins behind the leaders. The difference between first and last place is but 146 pins. Ed. Thennes, rolling with the leaders, was high man with 695, and a 234 game. .1 jijit iinvHi!!' 1,-i ; THE M'fflPmY PIJLiffP*A&Eit, TSUBfiPAY>, DEO1,1931 PLEASURE CLUB SWAMPS FRETTS BY 169 PINS Dar Granger and Gua Freund proved to be too much for the Frett's Specials in their match games Tuesday night, the Spanish-American war vet toppling them in stellar fashion for a 651 series which included a 242 game in his last attempt despite a one pin spare that he Mew in the eighth frame;. Gus had a 606 count with two games over 200. Barbian led the losers with a nealr 554 with Anchor Man Ed Smith right behind with 551. The first two games were reasonably close, but once th.e Pleasure Club started sailing them In the result was never in doubt. Their total of 2797 is the highest to-be rolled this year by any club though this is the first special match to be rolled. The defeat of the Fretts whetted the appetites of some of McHenry's other leaders in the bowling game and a challenge has already been issued to the victors for another match to be held in the near future. Don Harrison is to captain the challengers and his lineup will be announced soon. FRETT'S SPECIALS-- , " * Geo!®Barbian .... 170 200 184-- 554 Chat. Snath,.183 1133 180-- 496 Jos.

Coach Orr is bemoaning the fact that he hasn't anything around which to build a team and predicts nothing but disaster for his proteges. Whether or not they will develop during the season remains to be seen, but they have a long way to go at present Orr has introduced a new defense, that is new to the present generation, and he thinks that it will take some time for the lads to become accustomed to it. It is the zone defense, which will replace the man-to-man defense in a" good many schools since the adoption of the ten-second rule. Stringer used to coach the zone defense back in '25 arid '26 and his teams got away with it all right so there is nir reason to think that it cannot be worked. Though here is no indication that regular berths have been earned by any of the men, it is thought that George Kinsala will open at center with Wally Kreutzer and Whiting at the forward positions. Kinsala should control the tipoffs in the majority of games after he gets over the cold that has kept him on the sick list for the past three weeks. The forwards are both small, but have tremendous speed with fair basket eyes. They'll be small to work the backboards ,but Kinsala will help them out there. For the guards positions it looks like Gib Howrard and Lockwood may get the call. Locky has handled a basketball plenty, but needs to become more experienced in game play to rate very highly. Gib is fairly steady on defense and will be UFed entirely to take the ball off the backboard and get it to Lockwood, the floor guard. Coach Orr has scheduled but twelve games outside the tournaments but may add several more to fill in some open dates now on the calendar. e basketball season has rolled around once more and we find a new Beam of former high school stars organized to replace the MAACS, who nave held the spotlight fob many years. ' , / The team promises to be popular right from, the start. It has everything a team should \have and pleniy of so-called harmony WhicK leads to victory. There will be no mention of individual stars because this leads to jealousy and irritation. There can be no high scorer on any team without the co-operation of the other four players. .. ' Incidentally a game ^as been scheduled for Sunday, Dec. 4, at the local high school gym with the best team of the Fox Valley league as opposition. They have acquired the services of a few more Elgin high school stars for this year. The new player® for St. John's of Elgin consist of Urmyleberg,' Koehly, Durenberger and Koshnick. ' j This newly organized five has not j completed its roster, but the players j they have at present are Ed. Frett,!
