RKKTHfEN BEAT HEBRON IN OVERTIME BATTLE ON FRIDAY THE THIRTEENTH By Tom Bolger, Jr. On, Friday the thirteenth Coach Reed's MeHenry high school basketball team overcame their biggest jinx. The Warriors nipped the Hebron Green Giants with a 42-41 overtime victory. It was the first time Hebron took a besting on their own floor in many years. It was the first time MeHenry beat them anywhere since the season of "37 - *38. The home team took an 11-2 lead at the end of the first quarter. Thef^*; fighting MeHenry team was held to a lone basket. This was made by Bob Stilling, who played the greatest game of his career. Captain Judson and Wally Tibbitts were responsible for ten of Hebron's first eleven points. -- fialace -- Old Timer* ... Rogers rose ap to 235 in his second game ?nd totalled 592.

Several new slants on life in the service of one's country msy be gathered from reading this interesting the second quarter as they outscored the county champions 15-13 to trail 24 -17 at the intermission. Judson was held to one basket as Geovge Zank, Elly Behrens. and Georere Simes carried the scoring burden. For MeHenry, Captain Jackson hit for ten ooints as Stilling started some nice brealcs with his play in Hebron territory. Peterson added a bosket whil? Bolger counted three points. The score St. the half -- Hebron 24, MeHenry 17. Fast Work Here MeHenry returned to the floor determined to do something about the score. Before the fans hardly had time to realize play had been resumed Peterson dropped in th»*ee baskets to trine the W»»rior8 within two points «f tying Hebron, who counted on Behrens' free throw, Jackson »nd Judson made the score 27 - 25.

Rarin' to Go Conway's long shot made the score { 28-27 after Judson had scored a free : throw. The many MeHenry fans showed their delight as Jackson tied the score with a charity toss. Two more baskets and a free throw by Jackson, along with Stilling's basket gave MeHenry a 35 - 33 advantage at the end of three stanzas. Lay replaced Peterson for part of the third quarter. The officials took a round of boos as Dick Conway drew his fourth foul! early in the final frame. Coach Reed sent Ed "Ace" Lay back to fill Con-1 way's guard position. That was a big order for Ed, but his performance , was remarkable under fire. Free Throws Count Three free throws, two by Behrens and one by Simes, gave Hebron a 36 to 35 lead. Bill Bolger followed Conway to the showers with five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, when he fouled Judson. A free throw by Lay, a basket by Jackson and Burgett's two free throws knotted the score at 38-all. Roy Stackhouse connected with a pretty pivot shot to send MeHenry into a two-point lead. Lauderbach matched Roy's basket to make the score 40 - 40. Stilling made a beautiful play to break up Simes' dribble aa the quarter ended.

As this is an important military objective, extreme alertness must be maintained by the sentries at all times. Sleeping on your post or being absent from it is a serious offense, especially while we are at war. The guards carry a .45 automatic and all of us are given thorough instruction on how to use it. Each man does six hours of guard duty, the first watch consisting of two hours and the last, four hours. After a duty day like this, the next two nights are liberty flights. My first five we«ks in the Navy have been splendid. I have learned a great many things, have seen things of great interest. Of course, the main objec i tive on my list is to get stationed Lu a ship, preferably a destroyer, and get to sea.
