Muskrat Trapping Among the many victims of the drought which has plagued Illinois this year are thousands of muskrats which will be legal to take by traps on Nov. 15. Director Glen D. Palmer of the state Department of Conservation today cautioned Illi-1 nois trappers "not to trap off all the breeding stock of muskrats during the open season, Nov. 15 through Jan. 15." Palmer said that a survey of drought conditions .in the black prairie country which annually produces the bulk of th^ muskiat crop, shows that muskrats have been forced to migrate by the thousands to new areas. This disruption of the normal family life of the animal not only has decreased the number of young in the 1953 crop', Palmer declared, but has brought about a congestion of the muskrkts which might lead trappers ZEBEESWEtf WARRIORS 13-7 IN HOHEFINAL McHenry Trtrelf ^ To Crystal Lake For Windup Game By Larry Ekeroth McHenry lost a tough gam* Friday night when they met the Beebees in search of their second win of the season. This was the Warriors' last game at home for the 1953 season and everyone' hoped that they could bring in another win, but the clock stop* ped a Warrior drive in the fourth quarter in which the boys were really working for that tying touchdown. Zion's offense proved to be strong on the ground as they rushed for a net of 146' yards in the first half. They operated out of a single wing, of which twb out of every three plays foiled them going between tackle and end with three or four blockers in front 9 of the man with the ball. This made it hard for the line backers to get any tackles and it gave the half backs plenty to do. Zion scored first as they drove for a touchdown on the opening:, kickoff. The point after touchdown was no good and it was McHenry's turn to score next. The Warriors started their drive, on their own 40 yyd line and, after putting 4 first downs together, Stilling went over from the 2 yard line. Loren Freund made the extra point and the score at the quarter was 7 to 6. The last of the scoring came in the second quarter as Zion drove for their second touchdown and made their extra point. McHenry had two good drives stopped as they fumbled twice inside Zion's 30 yard line. McHenry travels to Crystal Lake Friday to play the Tigers in .their last game of the season.

Upsets Taking Forecasters To The Hills Football forecasters are "taking to the hills" in record-breaking numbers. The 1953 grid campaign likely will go into the books as the "Year of the Great Upsets," says The Sporting News. A veteran midwest coach, who is one of the game's finest students "of gridiron trends and developments, puts it this way: "The basic reason for the frequent upsets," he claims, "is the return of one-platoon play with the limited substitution rule. The change in the rule has reduced sharply the 'spread' in the playing potential of the major .collegiate teams. No longer is extreme depth and a bench load of specialists a vital factor. Football now is back to a point where a squad of about 22 gridders< carries the bulk of the playing load." . The result, points out The Sporting News, has been a leveling off in the strength of the major teams, and no longer is it possible for a team to hammer its way through oh sheer manpower. Many schools can come up with 22 good football players. However, there were only a handful that were able to muster 44 top-notchers under the demands of two-platoon play. Consequently, this season the balance of strength is much greater than it has been for many seasons.

Lakers Picked To Win Basketball Crown The tall and talented Minnea polls Lakers were once more favored to sweep all honors when the National Basketball Association pried open its 324-game schedule on Oct. '30, writes Ben Gould In The Sporting News. President Maurice Podoloff is confident that the NBA will surpass last season's attendance, which showed a 19 per cent increase over the gate of the previous campaign. Podoloff listed five reasons: 1. Most of the teams have been strengthened by stars returning from the armed forces. 2. The weaker sisters have been bolstered by the addition of the standout Indianapolis cagers distributed around the circuit. 3. Milwaukee and Baltimore, riding on the wave, of major league baseball hysteria, are confident that the pro cagers will also cash in. 4. Nationally televised games every Saturday, starting' Dec. 12, are expected to heighten interest. 5. The changes in rules, limiting the front court to 40 feet from the end line and penalizing all rear court fouls with two free throws, were expected to eliminate frequent fouling and speed up the game. According to The Sporting Illinois as a six-point winner over Michigan in his "Five Star Specials." Favorites by one-point margins are Miami (Fla.) over Auburn and Florida over Georgia. A seven-point edge is given Iowa over Purdue and Mtehi£&&; State over Ohio State. ^ > Referee Looks For Ring As Wrestling Continues Sam Muchnick, promoter and president of the National Wrestling Alliance, recalls in The Sporting News an amusing incident that occurred in Memphis a few years ago when Charley Rentrop, well-known mid-western referee, .was1 serving as the tin ire man in the ring At the height of the match, Rentrop waved his left arm wildly and his $5,000 diamond ring slipped from his finger and flew out into the audience, landing in the tray of a soda vendor. Rentrop leaped through the ropes, dashed out tv,0 aio1° grabbed the soda boy, ahouting:"*"The ring! IM« rnifc; ' . The startled vendor,, who had not seen the sparkler land in his tray, thought Rentrop had blown a gasket and began to retreat, pointing to the wrestling ring as he shouted: "Up there, Mister. There's the ring -- up where those wrestlers are strangling each other." According to The Sporting News .story, Rentrop clung to the fellow who, by this time was yelling for the cops. Eventually, still shouting: "The ring! The ring!"' Rentrop was quieted when a bystander, who had seen the whole incident, retrieved the diamond ring and handed it to Charley, who rushed back ilfto the ring to take up where he had left off. McHENRY COUNTf ^ REPRESENTED OPINION POLL ~ I Trade Talk In Hie Sporting News / Trade gossip in The Sporting News: The Cleveland Indians and Detroit Tigers art making bids to Washington for Gil Coan ... and the same Indians are hoping a deal can be made with Baltimore for Courtney and/or Wertz. STATE TEACHERS' COLLEGE CHOIR TO GIVE CONCERT More than 100 farm leaders from nineteen northern Illinois counties reported results of two months of intensive sampling of Farm Bureau Membership, opinion at the last of five area meetings conducted throughout the state this week by te Illinois Agricultural association. Otto Steffey, vice-president of te state-wide Farm Bureau organization and chairman of the meeting, explained the purpose of this grass roots poll is to help determine what resolutions hsall be placed before the voting delegates at the IAA's annual meeting in Chicago Nov. 16-19. While the reports of the nineteen counties are advisory, they will help the tentative resolutions committee of the IAA write its finaF" state-wide report Nov. 4, Steffey told the farmers gathered in the DeKalb county Farm Bureau building. County policy development chairman reported on a series of township and county meetings summarizing the opinion of farmers , on a wide variety Of questions. Price supports, foreign trade and federal budget occupied a primary spot in almost all of the county reports. Such problems as state lc|7islative reapportionment, local taxation, social security for farmers, and agricultural research also came in for lots of discussion. Charles Reed, of Emerson, speaking for Whiteside county, expressed what seemed to be the majority opinion on price supports. "In view of the fact that farmers must have some kind of support for their products, and still maintain as closely as possible a free enterprise system, we recommend a flexible price support system -- between 75 and 90 per cent of parity on the basic commodities." Most of the farmer feeling fol- s lowed this pro-flexible line, al- J though minority views were ex-« pressed for all the way from no| supports to 100 per cent of par-1 Increased foreign trade was WED. ONLY another almost unanimous opinion. Gerald Hageman, Wheaton, who gave the DuPage county report, said, "a better two-way trade system might go a long way toward curing- our surplus problems," "The federal budget should be made to accomplish this first by increasing efficiency in all government departments. This could be supported with a decrease in appropriations for all government departments, including the Department of Agriculture." This opinion was almost unanimously reported by other counties at the meeting. "The government should furnish more technical assistance ir conservation and less subsidy payments for carrying out conservation practices." That was the thought from Stephenson county as expressed by Glen Ackerman, Ridott. R. Kenneth Riskedel, Leland, said, "Some sincere appeals for increased aid to education and research were made at our meetings in LaSalle county." Counties represented at the-- meeting were: Jo Daviess, Stephenson, Winnebago, Boone, McHenry, Lake, Carroll, Ogle, DeKalb, Kane, Cook, JDuPage, Will, Kendall, Grundy, LaSalle^ rAise, Bureau and Whiteside. Baby Blue Eyes In the white race nearly all newborn babies have blue eyes because the pigment that causes other colors does not develop until some weeks after birth. However, negro babies, and other belonging to the dark races, have brown eyes, since the pigment is well developed when they are born. ELM RT. 176 WAUCONDA FRI. & SAT.
