LOCALS TRIM RAMBLERS SUBS DROP SECOND GAME lenry right- Spots Thurlwell outpitched Berggren, ace of the Austin Ramblers, and with the air of errors and wildness on the visiting pitcher's part, the McHenry Locals continued their winning streak by handing the Chicago lads a 5-1 lacing. . Spots gjMc out thirteen men, one more thafl^pis adversary, fanned the side in the seventh, and allowed but three men to face him in six of the nine innings he labored. Berggren had an even dozen strikeouts and faned the side in the secnod inning after Geier had led orf with a single, stole second and went to third on a wide throw bj Talliesch, the catcher. He allowed bat two earned runs but that was two more than his mates could earn for him so McH< fully won. Jim Geier, too big now to continue calling him Jimmie, led the hitting with two hits in four trips up. McHenry scored two in the third inning to break the ice and at the same time Berggren almost broke their backs making them dodge some of his wild pitched Whiting started the inning by fanning, Berggren's sixth strikeout in seven outs, Happy Smith survived on Rosa's miscue and moved upon Amie Anderson's single. Sonny Smith also contributed a hit to score Huppy and send Arnie to third. Ffannenstil couldn't dodjre quickly enough and was sent to ..firat after getting plunked in the ribs. Arnie sneaked home while Geier was rolling out to Rosa. In the next inning the lads were given two runs without even the semblance of a hit. A base on balls Remember Charlie Bick, left iarider' started it all and two errors coupled who worked for the Athletics on the mound last year and then played the outfield and first base whenever ha was needed ? Well, Charlie is again around these parts but this time in " the capacity of salesman for the Tayk) r Grocery of Waukegan, his old firm Charlie says that he is still playing ball twice a week with some Waukegan team- Johnny Pacek is keeping himself busy these days training for the coming bouts with the Irish fighters at Soldier's Field on the second of Aug- . net Prom the description the papers give of this Irish lad, John -will have his hands full and will need to be in the best of trim. His opponent measures six feet and seven inches from •wing to wing* and weighs a mere trifle of 220 pounds. Good luck, anyway, John. When the Austin Ramblers arrived on the Fourth the lx>cals decided to ptey a double header for the entertainment of the crowd inasmuch as bpth teams had reste3 over Sunday apd had plenty of pitchers available. Sbots won the first easily but Happy Sphoewer had quite a bit of difficulty trying to pitch the second stringers to victory even though they did pile enough hits to win .an ordinary gmme. Dar Granger whose full monfekvr of Dkrwin Independence because he was b4rn on the Fourth of July, celebrated hi fifty-fourth birthday by playing fifty-four holes of golf and this felk »W and not only played them but shot some real golf that improved as he , went around. Dar got an 8jJ, an 82 and an 80 in succession and shot the laJkt nine holes of the 54 in just two over par. He was even par to the ' seventeenth and then the gathering dusk had a bit to do with his taking seven on the par five hole to put him the two over, he getting a three on the short eighteenth. Many mora of them, Darwin. Bill Kreutaer, southpaw youngster who has hurled for the Shamrocks, Locals and Athletics in these parts at one time or another has now found himself in a Chicago amateur league and is going like an old timer. Bill always looked good to a certain group around town but unfortunately these weren't the ones for whom he was laboring and therefore spent a lot of his time on the bench. Knowing that he could do better than he was given credit for Bill went out and got himself a tryout and is making good with a capital G. In the game of the Fourth, Bill won handily, striking out eight and allowing but three hits. Go after them, Billie Boy, you can do it! The Keller A C nine failed to lftake the trip for the game with the Locals last Friday night but sent the powerful Stanczak Brothers instead1. The Locals failed to quake at the reputation these Brothers have but stepped right out and walloped them 8-2 in an eight inning contest. Seven of these rune came in the Dig fifth when en error, four walks and three hits, including a triple by Sonny Smith, with the bases full, just about put the game on ice. . Remember Joe, the second baseman for the Stanczak's? Well, he's still kicking in the sameold manner. Joe seems to be one of those chronic kickers that just have to find fault with everything in a baseball game but what would the game be without fhem ? Spots ThoriweH is still going big guns and if he doesn't look out he's going to graduate from the Locals before many moons have come and gone- Against the Stancxaks, known as a hard hitting outfit, he gave up but six hits and allowed but one earned run and that was accomplished by a clean steal of home with two out in the last inning and Spots enjoying a seven run lead. Jimmie .Stanczak was the one \^ho put that over. The other run came in the sccond inning on a single and a maf- "fed popup back in short right. Then Sunday he rested and went in Tuesday to stand the Austin Ramblers, leaders in the North Austin league and undefeated to date, on their ears with five scattered hits, three of them in the eighth and ninth innings with the Locals ahead 6-1, which was the final scone. There must be more than min lade btUad the lad. SHAMROCKS WIN AT RICHMOND, 6-4 Manager Wolck and his Shamrocks played a very interesting game July 4th with Richmond winning by a score of 6-4. Joe Glosson was on the mound for the Shamrocks and pitched a mighty fine game holding his opponents without hits or runs until the sixth inning. ' Manager Wolck had a good day at bat collecting two hits and scoring two runs. Junior Frisby made-the game very interesting with his good fielding on third base. George Larkin was out of *he lineup due to an injury. Claire Kinsey played first base getting a double and two singles and scoring two runs. Next Sunday, July 9, the Shamrock will play the Woodstock Cubs at the Knox field. Ilia line-up was as follows • • McHewry-- AB Howard," Kreutzer Kinsty Wolck Gracy M.

Up to this time Spots had given but one hit and that man was out stealing. With a four-run lead he loosened up in the fifth and issued j another hit and it blossomed into the "I* Schmitt, p Ramblers lone run of the game. With one down Whalen survived on Sonny Smith's error. Roth flied out to Ffannenstil and then Justen came up with a tremendous double that s^red Roth. The final run of the game was scored by the Locals in the seventh when Geier got his second hit after Pfannenetil bad walked and stolen to second. A base on balls followed by a hit failed to produce anything of a serious nature in the enemy eighth and two singles in the ninth got the same results. The Locals were outclassed hi the second game of the Impromptu double header by the Ramblers when Schoewer was treated rather roughly. The Ramblers pounded him for twelve hits and converted them into ten runs. Fowler hurled for the winners and went along quite well after a shaky start. With the score 8-1 against them the RambleTs emerged from their slump in the sixth with four runs and then aded two in the eighth and three more in the ninth. The Locals used a sob lineup to give all the lads i chance to play ball. Loepk 8, Stascnka 2 The XoeiJs ' were much ' surprised when the Stanczak Brothers nine of Waukegan showed up to do battle in the twilight game last Friday night. replacing the Keller A C who had been scheduled but who couldnt make it at the last mihute. Spots hurled a beautiful game and kept the hard slugging Lake county lads in check all the way. A big fifth inning in which the Locals scored seven runs tells the story. Four walks, three singles and an error tell the story of that inning. The triple by Sonny Smith with the bags loaded was the prime factor in tiie inning an<^capped the climax.

PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY SUFFERS HEAVY DAMAGE The severe lightning and rainstorm throughout northern Illinois last Saturday night, which reached almost cyclone-like proportions in the western suburbs, caused damage amounting to approximately $30,000 to electric lines and equipment of the Public Service Company of Northern Illinois, according to estimates made in the Chicago offices this week. Last Saturday night's storm brought down more than 150 of the company's poles, and one of the giant feteel transmission towers was badly damaged when the wind blew the roof of a barn against it. Although this and other damage interrupted electric serv. ce in sections of several communities, the company was able to have practically all service restored by Sunday morning. Operating engii^ers of the company attribute this restoration of service in record time to,their system of speedily assembling Hnemen and reparimen from all parts ^ of tha territory served to the trouble areas and to the quick dispatching of materials from the company's several headquarters scattered throughout thei 5 Raving exchanged a Cadillac sedan stolen at Janesville, Wis., for C. I. Cramer's Pontiac, driven out of his garage on North Division street, Harvard at 3 o'clock last week Tuesday morning, robbers made a successful getaway. The Cadillac, since claimed by a representative of the Shurtleff Ice company, was taken during the early morning of Saturday, June 24. John Kerr, Evanston, suffered a fractured left shoulder Sunday morning of last week when the automobile in which he was riding was forced off the road and into the ditch just south of Wauconda near the Harris home. The accident occurred when another machine cut in too close after passing the Kerr auto. Passing .motorists took the injured man toSthe Boss emergency hospital, wher&Mtts injuries were treated, A final survey of the proposed hiffh way E9 running through Barrington and Wauconda was made last week preparatory to the extension of that route from the. completed end at Wauconda south through Barrington. The state surveyors are following the route previously outlined by the Lake county road department. The engineers are staking out the right-of-way straight north through the Biltmore subdividsion and joining the already paved portion of 59 at Waucond.a Harry Webb, Marengo, was the unfortunate victim of a '«hit and run" driver Friday evening of last week when a car traveling at a high rate of speed struck hirni Wr. Webb was driving his cows to pasture and was attempting to keep a cow from getting in the way of the rapidly approaching vehicle when the accident occurred He was painfully injured, receiving severe body bruises, badly lacerated head and shoulders and a dislocated knee. His^condition is critical at this writing. / William' Ferguson, ESranston, colored, riding a box car on the Chicago &. North Western recently, had the misfortune to have a deep gash cut in his foot as the train crossed a bridge at Lawrence. Had he kept his legs from dangling out of the open car door his foot would not have come in contact with the bridgre and the accident would have been avoided. Receiving first aid and treatment at the Community hospital at Harvsrd, he was able to leave for his home at Evanston latfeiv' Each year in Lake county some worker loses his life during hsjf -or grain harvest, and this year is proving no exception. Wednesday of last week, Albert Gebhardt, a farmer living near Petite Lake was instantly killed when a hay fork dropped from the peak of the barn, piercing his body at the neck and tearing down through the spine. Gebbhardt was standing on the hay rack, and the load was nearly finished when the 40-Ib. fork became unhooked and fell. The deceased was 49 years of age and was a bachelor. One' sister and sis brothers survive. An accident of mos^ unusual hap< pening occurred last Wednesday evelK ing when Dr. A. P. Renie of Union fell two storing frehn an open window in his upstairs flat to the ground below. The mishap occurred at about 9:30 last evening. Dr. Renie, it was presumed, was ready to retire, and supposing the window to be a door or the window ledge to be the edffe of the bed he sat down and the relaxation sent him to the ground. Most extraordinary is the fact that the doctor had no bones broken from tin fall and no sefious results occurring: whatsoever. A shock from lightning was- such as to cause Mrs. Bridget Kane, mother of Rose and Mary Kane, both em ployed in local business houses 111 Harvard, to fall from a chair oft which she was seated at her hontt last week Saturday evening. Mi*. Kane was sitting near a closed win' dow saying prayers that make up i rcsary when she was stricken.

The drowning occurred about 9:45, the water having a depth of about eighteen inches. Mi r. from the Wisconsin Power and Light Co., in Lake Geneva, worked over the body, applying artificial respiration, but to no avail. Inuring the rain and thunder storm which visited this section last week Saturday evening, the hail which lasted only a short while, broke 3,000 windows in the buildings of the Rose Farm at Woodstock. According to superintendent, Leo C. Gould, the stones were unusually large ones and the storm was quite severe for a few minutes, long enough however, to do considerable damage. None; of the hidings were damaged other than t'.ie broken glass. \ Fearl Peck, 37, a police marshal at Nfith Aurora, who at one time operated a garage in Woodstock now occupied by the Hurley Pontiac comp& ny, was shot and seriously wounded at 4 o'clock last week Sunday mornjrg by- seven bandits who attempted to hold up the Fox Gardens, load house across the highway from the entrance, to Exposition park. Pecks condition has been considered serious.

LOOKING BACKWARD TO 1904 With Chicago celebrating a Century of F* ogress in 1933 with a modern exposition, it is interesting to glance backward over the past quarter of a century to the time of the St. Louis World's Fair in 1904 and compare what was happening then with what is happening now. There is, indeed, a striking similarity. A Roosevelt was in the White House, then, as now. Bicycles were in rtyle, as they are again today. The free silver issue waa before congress then, as it has been this year. War was under way in Manchuria, the conflict between Japan ard Russia, matching the recent hostilities between Japan and China. with them for some timf Peterson was told to get out of the car at Oak Grove school, a short distance out of Harvard. He did. "This is a holdup,'* he was told by the woman. Refusing to hand over the $47, the amount left out of $50 that he had on entering the car, he was attacked and knocked to the ground. The man held him while the woman removed the money from his person. Following the robbery the couple left the Walworth resident stranded on the roadside, hii clothes practically torn from his body. Tuesday afternoon of last week, while operating a thistle cutter on hif father's farm near Rollins, Delbert Hoclc, son of Mir., and Mrs. Louit Hook, received painful injuries and it was only by chance that he escaped being killed.
