">• t •*-••• Ij^ARL R.V£LSH •; Ifs the McHenry Shamrocks J Ti. the Johnsburg Tigers again f And we're glad! The game next Sunday will be played at Johns- [j l»rg. Johnsburg won two straight ' games from Algonquin to be sure Of a spot in the play-off for the county league championship. ' IV a rip-snortin' battle McHenry won the deciding game from Dundee on Labor Day. The game was rained out Sun day with McHenry holding a 5 to 0 lead so the boys were all pepped up to go out after 'ism on Monday. But, things were differoat on Monday and the boys had to battle rh&t down the line to. beat one of tUr league's top pitchers, Jim Bchuldt. Manager Bili Bolger &nd his team played smart, heads-up ball all the way and are to be congrat ulated for coming through with colors" flying high. There were heroes In the game, but the spirited play of the whole team was much in evidence. Both Mike Santoro and Jim 8ctaldt hurled great ball. They were the key men in the game. To Santoro's battery mate, Wil lo McCulla, must go a big dish of credit. Wlllo not only drove in the winning runs, but played heads-up game behind the bat. in the fifth inning he pounced on Schuldt's tap along the third base line and made a bullet-like throw to Miller for the out. It was as neat as you'll be seein'. of course, Dick Conway's leaping catch of Thompson's drive in the last inning with the bases loaded won't be forgotten soon So sure was everybody that it was a hit that the runners were well ' an their way. Conway threw to Miller for a double play to end the game. A bum decision at third base in the ninth could have been very costly to McHenry. McCracken took a good throw from Jim Larkln and tagged the runner going into third. The runner hadn't ' reached the bag, but the tag was - plenty fast. The base umpire who • called the play was not in position. i In other words he was not on top of the play or he would have seen what several hundred other plojpp le sa*^ Few games are decided on umpires' decisions. This one had no hCftlng on the final' outcome. But, brother, it could have! There was much concern about McHenry not having some of their key men for the series with Johnsburg; but it now appears that all hands will be on deck. McHenry and Johnsburg have proved to be the class of the lea- J gue and the battle starts for the championship. See you next Suntyy-- at Johnsburg. Bring on the horse liniment.

Such were the remarks last Monday (Labor Day) after the McHenry Shamrocks KnH beaten Dundee 4 to 2 on their home grounds in the final play-off game between the two teams. McHenry had toured to Dundee on Sunday and watched a 5-run lead washed away in the heavy downpour. The boys showed no respect for Jim Schuldt's reputa-j tion and admitted ability ag a! pitcher as they smacked him for 6 hits and 5 runs in the first inning. But, all that was washed away and a fresh start had. to be made on Monday ^ /V ^ Umphs Stroll In The umps strolled in 45 iftlihutps late for the Monday game, then worked like all get out to get the game over in a hurry. Conway, who gained added fame for a great play to end the game, got things started in the first inning by drawing a walk, advancing to second on Miller's sacrifice, moving to third when McCulla grounded to second and scoring on Jim Larkin's hit along the left fleld line. Dundee wasted 06 tihie in getting that run back when they came to bat in the first inning. Thomas led off with a hit, moved up on Grover's bunt, went to third on B'roderdorf s hit and home when Grotemeier drove a grounder down the third base line. "" McHenry picked up another run In the third when Santoro led off with a pass. Conway sacrificed. McCulla hit safely to short, mov-'1 ing Santoro to third. The boys worked a double steal, Santoro scorin&x Both pitchers hurled great ball aL? the game progressed. Santoro got into a couple of spots, but had what it took to keep 'em away from pay dirt. Schuldt was so effective that nobody reached base In the fourth, fifth, Bixth* and seventh innings. McCulla Connects Murphy led off the eighth with a< hit that Grover couldn't handle. Santoro was hit on the left foot by a pitched ball and caused much concern as his mates gathered 'round to see the extent of the Injury. When Dundee refused to allow a "courtesy" runner, Santoro limped to first base and stayed in the game. Conway laid down his second sacrifice to put the runners in scoring position. Then came McCulla with a screachlng liner down the right field line to score the runners and win a great ball game. Conway Saves Game But, the game wasn't over. Jerry Larkin muffed Schuberg's roller. Grotemeier was safe on a close play at first. Knabusch forced Grotemeier. Epply batted for Rakow and singled to right, scoring Schuberg. .Schuldt was given an intentional pass, the only free ride given by Santoro. Up came the veteran "Woody" Thompson, who had batted for Lindquist in the seventh and then taken over right field. The bases were loaded with the winning run on first. Santoro fooled Thompson on a couple of high pitches, then one came in to the veteran's liking and he blasted a terrific drive over Conway's head. But, Conway leaped high to spear the ball and double off first. It was a play for the book and both players and fans alike were momentarily stunned before realizing that the game Nothing Doing George was running out of ideas for getting money out of his father. Anyway, none that he had thought up lately had seemed to work. He reasoned that a tricky or coy letter might appeal to the old .man's sense of humor and make him soften up. So he sat down at the college's typewriter and wrote: "Dear Dad--Gue$$ what I need molt of aU? That'$ right. Plea$e .lend it along Soon. Be$t wi|he$ and iot$ of love. Your ever hopeful Ion, George." And this was dad's prompt reply: "NOw that was quite a tricky letter you sent.' I've seen Nothing exactly like it since I went to college. NOne of us here would have thought to*use the| s ign instead of an Write us aNOther letter soon. NOw I must close. Dad."

Metal and Wood A piece of metal feels colder than a piece of wood, even though both have been in a room of constant temperature for some time. This is because metals are better conductors than wood. When you touch the metal surface, heat is carried away from yo>ir hand more rapidly than when you touch wood. Thus, jmven though both are %t the same temperature, so long as they are below body temperature, th# metal cools your hand more.

How Could He? The Judge looked down sf the prisoner. His face seemed fatniliar but the judge couldn't place it. "Have you ever been up before me?" he asked.

NYE, Executor. Loose IT Kinne, Attorneys. (Pub. Sept. 8-15-22) i v ; Sanitation Is Essential In Control of Neweastlo No experience is by far the best experience with Newcastle disease. Newcastle disease is spread directly and indirectly, but experts recommend watching these channels closely: Keep visitors out, and tell the poultry buyer to stop in the road. Carry out birds snd eggs and sell them away from the yard. Avoid shipment of exposed birds. Require dealers to sell feed in new bags .©r show that they are reusing old bags only after thorough steam sterilization. Thoroughly sterilize all crates returned from market before allowing them on the premises. Poison rats, and keep cats and dogs out of yards and feed rooms. They act as mechanical carriers of the disease. Add new stock only after a quajv antine period of several weeks tOv Insure that they are free from disease. Fairs, shows, and laying contests are hazards. It Is unwise to return these birds to the farm. They should always be sold for slaughter. Buy chicks only from hatcheries (preferably local) that apply rigid sanitary control. Attend strictly to prompt disposal of all birds dying from any cause by deep burial or burning. Cutworm Control Poisoned bran mash used before plants come up or are transplanted will help control cutworms. Zippy Touch Horseradish and steak--a grand duet. Just add a little of this relish to the meat gravy right before serving time tor unusually savory results. •" Heating by Heat Pumpa Now in limited use. the heat pump is a device which picks up beat at a lower temperature (from a source such as the earth, water or air) and delivers it at a higher temperature. The heat pump "steps up" the temperature by compressing a gas when it Is returned after circulating through coils, in contact with the heat source. It can be installed so that ft may be reversed in the summer to cool a house or other building. nUCKY HACKIE "Jim," said the taxi driver's Mend, "Did you know there's s purse lying in the bottom of your cab?"
