"Not at all. r»e boy", he replied, "How's the old man " Ross was tops in radio and sports activities. Btit I am digressing - -this is a sports column there is ho limit to how far your mind can go. Remember "way back when" the Comiskeys summered In a cottage on the Jimmie Hughes' estate on Fox River. Well, I was a White Sox fan, now and always. all through my affection for dear Mrs. Comiskey. A lighted lantern gave signals across the Fox as to winning games. Now can witness every play on television. The Sox are still going on their own steam. Wia or lose they are my pet club. As the husband said to his wife, "Let me drive awhile, I want to relax." Vivid is the memory of ball games in Purcell's pasture every Sunday afternoon. The Praltie lads "choosing sides". An they ] elder sister, Bridget, made their Day, . baseball suits. Navy blue and were colorful, then as •"They always terminated the game at milking time. It was said of me by one who's gone that a good farmer's wife was spoiled when I came intp the village of McHenry to live."" "Definitely" as the youth erclaim! - " You and the family seem v$ry important to me but everybody »3ys 'Tm glad Earl r is on vacation". Too bad "Mose" isn't responsible for his expense accounts. We enjoyed the controversies in former years. "Mose" was a patient man as chief of Pla'ndealer personnel. Mi8a Froehlich excels as present Editor. Congiatulations. Mrs. Yegge a new member on the staff is a valued addition. I wanted to write something about local sports organizations but my grandson, Rob Weber, who would have to give me. a refresher course, is enjoying "Boys Town" at Springfieldsponsored by the American Legion. Reading of the wondevful recreation afforded the boys which also trains and educates them for future citizens, I can only say God bless this wonder^ ful organization always at our command.

"So I Hear" K#ii<'one told me that you are ^ioning this week aitd the was to consist of just %vv<>4 words "GONE FISHIN' ". maybe for the sake of the s it might be best to let ijjtii <M that, but Adele thought ;I mfkht add a few remarks: So, here I be, enroute to South jhend on the South Shore elecic, bumping along on what the tudents in a well known Uninor- th of town, refer to •|RH the "Yellow Peril" I wonder ow many times I have made *;is trip over the past twentyiffl^ years. Too many. The pas- "T~ "^engers are not Vacationers. tWfi;of them h#ve been over »,;^o Chicago for the day. perhap® fito see that great baseball team, 'the Cubs. Others, to spend Fathers Day with a lpved one - nothing in the way to be "jour ney proud of" like Rebecca Sunnybrook Farm, but they/are interesting people. | Op ahead I see Johnny' Jor- > don. head basketball coach' at *_ m ^ Notre Dame, and wonder what .^KeV-is thinking about. Perhaps ' about the big tall fellow across -r^the aisle with the Indiana stickler on his luggage. The little man who shares the seat with me has a paper sack, nnd.c every few minutes there is a iferrific "whirr" inside. Finrnllyv I ask, and point to the bag. "What's inside" "A bird is , the answer, no more and no less. Vs we boarded the train a father with perhaps five or six . children in tow, is they perfect I "Prist Cover" for Fathers Day. Papa proceeds to seat each child in a separate seat "so they can watch the scenery". The conductor took care of that matter. |They are travelling light, without benefit of luggage, but seem to have clothes on top of clothes, • coats and jackets galore. Much * running up and down the aisle to the water cooler. They must be sponsoring a paper drive for they gather up each newspaper and magazine left by departing passengers. Papa ushers each • one down the aisle "as necessary" and the finale, is that ( papa himself in the confusion, turns right instead of left, evidently minsing the "wo" preceding "mea" and the ear of people are considerably amused. A woman boards the Henry ball dub managed by my brother, Richard J. Walsh, in 1903 or thereabouts which i will gladly appropriate if you so desire. I beg to submit this copy, as is, to the Sports Column of my home town paper, "The McHenry Plaindealer". Please accept it with one thought--"Any port at all in a storm." ' Ya Olde Timer, ' . Loretta Walsh. A task more difficult to perform not presenting itself, I have undeitaken to assume the role of one who is sure to criticize a sports writer; However, it gives one a chance to defend oneself 'against the many H|tle accusations set forth to anrrey one who»e -limited good nature has been injured. But! unlike the "hit and run driver" you come right back. Hats are a creation of nothingness, then hair, .shoes, neck and waist lines are not in accordance. I know many readers wanting your scalp. But all is forgiven with others on account of your youth. Didn't one of the rendera of your column say "That young Walsh has his nose in everything." She it was who never broke one of the commandments. Once you dared to publish a I lady's expressed view on certain customs and she vowed never to put "a word out of her mouth" in your presence again. Jokingly. It grieved us to hear of the sudden demise of one, of our favorite broadcasters this . 'week Norman Ross. The writer remembers when a few years ago his SOIL (who was substituting 3 Tt appears that this commun ity will have to wait for Little League baseball. Father McGowan secured a movie for last Friday night which covered Little -League organization. Thirteen boys and three fathers attended. 'Nuffr said, -s v, CARD OF THANKS I would like to ' take .' this means of thanking friends for their many, kindnesses during my illness, especially for cards, flowers and prayers offered in my behalf.

GIANT SKY HI LEE MEETS VERNE OAONE ' IN ROUND LAKE RING One of the best rated matmen in the nation, Verne Gagne of Minnesota, will .be featured in Friday night's show at Lake County Stadium in Round Lake Park. This former Olympic I wrestling stalwart and football' ace of the University of Minnesota takes on a veritable giant of six feet ten, named Sky Hi Lee, whose 290 pounds will offer a severe threat to Gagne. The Minnesotan, using a dangerous sleeper hold, has sent to dreamland some of the best men in the business. Lee may give him more! trouble, however, than he's had in years. The giant isf a "Canadian rancher. He owns hainds that no glove-maker has yet fitted. He actually consumes 14 eggs for breakfast, and as much as 5 pounds of steak for a wholesome dinner. Stepping into the arena Friday night, he may frighten more than a few ladies . . . and lady mat spectators don't frighten easily. Last year in England the Sky was voted the best wrestler to perform on British Empire soil. This bout will go 60 minutes or the best of three falls. Othii. encounters find Johnny Balbo, former world's Jr. Heavyweight champ, taking on quick-working Billy Darnell of New Jersey, one time star gridder at Temple University, and in an Australian tag team match, Trader O'Neill of Hong Kong and Shanghai, will be introduced, along with beard and a chimpanzee, as a team partner of Roy Rogers of Chicago, against Bobby Nelson of Wisconsin and Bull Allen of Dwight, 111. pickets are on sale at Lake County Stadium and Hook's Drug Store in Round Lake Park, priced at $2, $1.25 and a special 75 cent admission for Mttle ones.
