The game i was played in a steady rain which made ball-handling difficult. 'Both teams showed plenty of spirit throughout the game. On one occasion, a Woodstock boy dove for a loose helmet thinking it was the ball. The play of Bob Stilling was a bright spot for McHenry. Playing his best game of the season, he backed up the line on defense and teamed with Vernon Peterson to pile up would-beground- gainers as they attempted to crash through McHenry's forward wall. His punting kept St Mary's in their own territory for a good share of the game. McHenry kicked to St. Mary's as the game got underway. The Saints picked up two first downs before punting to McHenry. The home boys were in possession of the ball on the enemy's sixteen yard line as the quarter ended. On the first play of the second period, Captain Ed the offensive hero of the evening, ran fifteen yards on a cut-back to place the ball on the one yard line. Stilling crashed over on the next play. They failed on their try for extra point. McHenry led 6-0 at the intermission. St. Mary's forced McHenry back to where they had to attempt a punt from their own goal line in the third quarter. A high pass from center got away from Stilling and rolled over the goal line where Bob recovered it, giving St. Mary's two pointa . Lay Rans 85 Yards St. Mary's showed plenty of spirit as they received Stilling's kick-out from the twenty yard line. The boys in green sensed a chance for victory but their hopes were soon given a terrtfic jolt when Captain Lay grabbed one of Murphy's punts, and behind determined McHenry blocking, jaunted up the side-line for eighty-five yards and a touchdown. The try for point after touchdown failed. St. Mary's made one last bid in the fourth quarter as they forced the Reedmen back deep into their own territory. Stilling then exploded a sixtyyard kick which wvrrt out on St Mary's ten and it was McHenry threatening to score again as the game ended. Outstanding for the visitors were little Bobby Trainor, a midget halfback, who got off several nice runs, and Captain Bill Henner who plays a lot of end for Coach Stuessy. Both teams were hampered by injuries. Woodstock's Co-captain, Neil Cooney, was in uniform but could not play because of a bum ankle. Captain Lay of McHenry was not scheduled to see action because of injuries but insisted that he-be taped together enough to play. He played a great game despite his injuries. Bob Schaefer, regular end, was not in uniform for the second straight week. Coach Reed started Conway and G. Peterson at ends, Brda and V. Peterson at the tackle posts, Doherty and Martin as guards, A. Jackson at center, and Lay, tBolger, J. Jackson and Stilling in the baekfield. Other boys to see action wwre fSnspar, Blasins, Regaer (wbe looks all right in the liae), Harrison, Gerlaclr and MeKim. Next Friday evening IS-- Benton will invade McHenry for the final home game of the season. Last year Zion, boasting one of Lake county's best teams, beat McHenry on the Zion field. They had one of the heaviest high school teams in the territory. The McHenry boys would like to avenge last year's game. If the local boys are able to dodge injury, and McHenry Seniors turn in another game like the St. Mary contest, the visitors should be in for a busy evening., Tha bore had more than outstayed his welcome and at the end* of a fortnight, hia weary host thought of a aura way, tie hoped, to get rid of him.

IS PLAMSft BY STATE Of considerable interest to sportsmen and farmers of this vicinty was an announcement from Springfield that an army of 1,000 dollar-a-year men to aid enforcement of Illinois fish and game laws as well as help in conservation of wild life, is being planned as State Conservation Director Livingston Osborne disclosed overwhelming approval of the proposal. The conservation chief said that he was preparing .a pointed form to be sent to various sports groups throughout the state to list recommendations, for "minute men" appointments. Tentatively, each county is to be limited to a maxiumum of ten who will assist field men, including both investigators and wardens in each of the state's 102 counties. McHenry county, in addition to the minute men, will have a force of special deputies in circulation, who will work in co-operation with Sheriff Lester Edinger. The Fox Lake region, * which embraces Lake aad McHenry counties, has been chosen as the site for the state's new conservation training school, according to the head of the conservation department. Two sitea in the region are under construction, be mid. Osborne said that decision to establish the school in the Fox Lake region was prompted by its abundance of creeks, river, lakes and woods. He said several other places were considered but that none offered the facilities available in the Fox Lake region. "The biggest percentage of game is in the northern half of the state and besides, the bulk of the state's population is in the north and north central counties," Osborn said. "We considered several sites in cpntral Illinois but none offered facilities equal to those available farther north." The department said that it expected the state's new training school for wardens and inspectors to be ready for use within a year. A stern father who had repeatedly told a young man who was paying his addresses to his daughter not to visit the house again without his permission, which he never intended to give, was surprised when he answered the doorbell late one evening to see the young man. "Sir," said he, in anger, "didn't I tell you not to call again, eh, sir?" - "Yes," said the young man, "I know, but I didn't call to see your daughter. I came on behalf of our firm about that littll bill." "Oh--er--er--" stammered the stern father, "call again, will you?'? BOY SCOUT Reformer--What people want is deeds, not words.

We met at the Grade school at nine o'clock, and, after a short business' discussion with our leaders, were assigned to cars. The Girl Scouts and their leaders wish to express their thanks to Mrs. Harry Durland, Mr, George Stilling and Carol Peterson's family for driving their cars to the Pistake Bay school pool. For just a few minutes before doing into the pool, we enjoyed the beautifully colored trees and foliage surrounding the bay. The first group of girls were led by Bonnie Page and Joan Durland, two of our good swimmers. While they were enjoying the water, and passing some of their tests for sport badges, the rest of us played ping-pong in the game room. Betty Kramer and Mary Douglas led the second group to the pool. Our time was up all too soon, and we had to Hurry to get our hair dry and return to the waiting cars. We all agreed that we had a most enjoyable time, and will look forward eag erly to another swimming party in the future. There will be no regular meeting this Monday, but remember, Scouts, our Halloween party is Monday, Oct. 27, at seven o'clock in the gym. Good luck to you, JEAN NICKELS, Scribe.
