LOOT RICHMOND QHt Y, 4 TO 0 By Dick Smith Dear "So I Hear", " ",""."" Happy "first vaca13en in foorteen years" to you! Hope the fisherman in your family finds the perfect Wisconsin fishing •pots -- that the little sister won't be too much of a trial for j her big brother -- that their {mother will enjoy the quiet and I Teat of the north woods -- and tthat their father will meet up j With some Sox fans. • Vacations are wonderful. Hie ; Plaindealer is filled with news of ; Interesting and delightful trips • taken all oyer the world. I can re- • member when its star reporter, Eddie Buss, met all trains and recorded the goings and comings of McHenry folks -- "So and So boarded the Chicago train this (Thursday) morning". Your father, God bless him, took a vacation, just once. Following much discussion and assignment of ? duties to our young sister and • yourself, he and his chauffeur •daughter set out to visit me in ! South Bend. The bellhop had scarcely set his suit case down in the »hotel when he placed a call for JMc&enry. We thought he was goting to jump through1 the telephone •he was so anxious and concerned j about how things were going at ihome. He stayed two days and 'we had to bring him home. Ar- Jrived in McHenry about midnight »after a strenuous and tiresome •trip, but before we even stopped iat home he had to travel every •street in town to see if every- ' thing was under control -- stop- •ped in at the City Hall to check J the pumps and the water pressure jr-» and finally home with a vow •that this was the best part of .the vacation. No place like Mc- | Henry. J By the way, the Cubs apparently are on vacation. Wish they'd |come home and win a few ball , games. J See so many signs through the I country "Vacation School" Boy, J that wasn't our idea of a vaca- Jtion was it? When Johnnie Brents »ushered us out the door of grade ! school we weren't exactly wishing for September. You'll be surprised to find our J$]ont porch a thing of the past you return.

LEGION BEATS WOODSTOCK 6-3 TO LEAD LEAGUE * Woodstock's invasion was met by a surprising and determined McHenry team last Sunday but it must be said Woodstock looked good in losing 6 to 3. It is seldom that a McHenry team comes from behind to win. Hie 4th was the Wig one for both teams, McHenry taking the lead and not relinquishing it. The highlight of the game was the sixth inning when Woodstock's big guns were retired in order, Sahs grounding to the pitcher, Geister and Wienke striking out. Long struck out 18 men and definitely proved himself in the sixth when he kept the big guns silent. The boys certainly are very pleased with their manager "Tom Bolger", and it is felt that they will continue giving their very best. McHenry • Barbier, IB . Weber, 3B . Schmitt, LF . Freund, C .

Esther Williams Vivian Blaine in ^"SKIRTS AHOY" h Ji Technicolor The Shamrocks and Richmond tangled at the V.F.W. Park last Sunday and Richmond won the game by the score of 4 to 0. The game was a real pitcher's battle until Richmond put it away with two unearned runs in the ninth inning. Richmond scored it's first run in the sixth inning. After Kuecker had grounded out, V. Miller singled to center, and stole second. R. Miller singled to center scoring V. Miller. Richmond's second run was scored in the eighth. Kuecker led off with a double down ^he left field foul line. V. Miller popped to Rosing. It looked like the Shamrocks would get out of the inning without any runs scoring when R. Miller popped to Andreas at first for the second out, but Katzenberg singled to center to score Kuecker. C. Miller ended the inning with a fly to center. In the ninth G. Miller was safe on an infield error. Winn doubled to left center scoring Miller. Pickering grounded out to Larkin. Tilton also survived cfh' an error. Kuecker singled to left, scoring Winn with the fourth and last run of the game. V. Miller had the Shamrocks well in hand throughout the game. In the second inning Larkin led off with a single but was caught stealing. Larry Stilling led off the third inning with a single to center but was caught off first when Sunny Miller missed the attempted bunt. In the sixth inning, after L. Stilling and Miller had grounded out, Andreas doubled to left and Rosing beat out a hit to the pitcher. The rally ended when Phil Judson flied out to the right fielder. Guv Bolger's single in the eighth inning was the last bit of excitement for the Shamrocks. The game was one of the fastest played in the league this year. Neither pitcher walked a man. The time for the game was one hour and thirty-two minutes. The Shamrocks will play the second game next Saturday after* noon against the Johnsburg Tigers. The first game at 1:30 will feature Lake Forest and Algonquin. The winners of these two games will play the following week for the Championship of this tournament Both finalists will be invited to the tournament in Elgin. 1 Richmond AB B H V.

The ride features this season will be headlined by the world's largest portable roller-coaster, an attraction usually found only in famous amusement parks. Located just inside the main gate at the state fairgrounds, the carnival area has been enlarged and newly landscaped. The size of the carnival can be gauged from the fact tnat it will require 45 doublelength railroad cars to transport its equipment, and five Pullrhan cars for the show personnel. R«new that subscription to the The Plaindealer now!-"" This past weekend members of the Pistakee Yacht club gathered for the club's official opening of the regular Saturday and Sunday series of sail boat racing. Preceding the Saturday race, flag raising ceremonies began with the firing of a gun and a review of the fleet by Commodore Walter Deroche. The Saturday race was won by Jack Deroche as skipper of "Freckles II". "Breeze Teaser II" with William Fletcher, was second and Robert E. Mras in his "Bar Bee III,' and Ralph and A1 Pomierski in their "Friday III" finished in third and fourth places, respectively. It was a very close race; the first and second boats were less than a boat length apart at the finish and the fourth place sail was only twenty seconds behind the winner. Winners Repeat Jack Deroche and William Pletcher again repeated their positions of first and second in the Sunday race. Norman Reese was able to nose his "Honi-Chlle" in to finish third just a few feet ahead of Ralph and A1 Pomierski. The series sailboat races, now in their fifty-fifth year, will be held each Saturday and Sunday throughout the season. The only exceptions will be when the fleet is partaking in inter-lake or association regattas. Dinner Dance Saturday night, members and their guests gathered at the club house for the regular Saturday dinner dance. A barbecued chicken dinner was served, followed by an evening of dancing. Special host committee last Saturday incluuded Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Jensen, Dr. and Mrs. James Leach, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Fletcher, Mrs. Elsa Reese and Alex and Ralph Pomierski.
