its# THE McHENBY PLAniMALEB OUR DEMOCRACY ...THE IMPOSSIBLE TAKES A LITTLE LONSEk -- FKOM THE MOTTO OF THE CORPS OF ENGINEERS j&t/ £ohXL (UO£aJL. - BtieoHll Like the weather, talk of the World Series is cooling off. And that's just as well for some of US American League fans. The hsat was terrific! Now, fast on the heels of the series' woes comes word that our White Sox (just wait 'till next year) arc rebuilding through the purchase' of another Cub player. Things have gone just far enough so we turn our thoughts to football -- and what happens! LIBERTYVILLE RUNS BACK KICK-OFF TO BEAT WARRIORS 6-0 . i'NjOtre Dame, Illinois and Mc- Heifry all take it on the chin. Aren't we living right? '•j* v Wen lit those big schools worry about themselves this week and;' concentrate on our McHenry Warriors. ' The home team travels to Woodstock Friday night where they will bump into a much improved Blue Streak team that Will be keyed to please their Homecoming crowd. in best football tradition we should point out that Woodstock beat Lake Forest and then go moanin' low that we haven't a chance. But, that kind of talk has long been recognized as propaganda to lull the opposition into lagging ways. Sort of a sleeper play and they have been outlawed. By Ralph Fatzke The Warriors lost another conference game to Lifccrtyvilk; last Friday on their muddy home field. Libertyville scored on the opening kickoff and got off to a start that looked like they were going to make a slaughter of the game. The extra point was blocked by Jack Pearson, After this the Warriors settled down and fought hard. The McHenry team just seemed to be lacking in offensive strength and did not score throughout the game. Sparkling- defensive play by Arnie Thelen, Dick Olson, Jack Pearson, Chuck Majercik and the whole team helped to prevent Libertyville from scoring more touchdowns. If the Warriors could have coupled a little offensive strength with their defense, the scorebook would have read the other way. The final score was Libertyville 6, the Warriors 0. MOOSE LODGE Reservations for the hayrack party on Saturday, Oct. 9, must be in by Friday night, Oct. 8. Phone 242 or 1383-J-2. Square dancing will start in the hall at 10:30, with no reservations required. Ernie Useman will do the calling. There will be a Hallowe'en masquerade party at the lodge hall for members and invited Mind you -- we aren't coming right out and predicting a Warrior victory. Nope. As our nifty ^ ^ . group of cheerleaders say, "We ®^es Saturday night, Oet. like our team?' Can't put the kiss of death on them. (Somebody might recall that we picked Cleveland in 6 games.) Woodstock isn't too far for all good fans to travel and there is a chance that you might see your favorites come bouncing off the field with smiles that victory alone can bring out. "Hle^Varriors showed again last Friday night that they 'have more punch in their defense than in th#"offense endeavors. brought a food teafll to town. They snap fright intfT their plays wibfr- a ifajftaih eagerness. When the visitors' ran tne opting kickoff back for a touchdown, it looked mighty bad on the banks of the Fox. Then came the kick for point and Jack Pearson broke through to block the kick. We have a feeling that Jack's spirited play at "that point gave the team a real lift. #ith Arnie Thelen a real tower of Strength in the line, the Warriors will not be trampled on. Now for improved offense. Word is getting around that St."* Mary 's of Woodstock has a halfback named Bob O'Brien who can tote a football with mucho gusto. Some fine Sunday afternoon we want to take a look for ourselves. We are reliably informed that a certain local gentleman is working on plans for a new home. The double garage will be the very latest thing. One garage door will be painted in big letters "Hers" and the other "His.' "Hers" will be two feet wider. ou. a tart planning your costume now. WOMEN OF THE MOOSE McHenry Chapter, No. 1348, joined Women of the Moose throughout the English speaking countries of the world in celebrating "Christmas in October" night at their last meeting on Oct. 5.

Anyone who missed getting a ^ft v|g the Oct. 5 meeting and Would #011 llRe to remember the children at Mooseheart may call Irene Stoller at McHenry 107-M.

Karas, were treated at St. Therese hospital, Waukegan, last Friday for treatment of injuries suffered when their car and a truck collided on Rt. 12, a half mile south of Rt. 176. A Crystal Lake resident, William Feltz, 32, suffered injuries to an arm and a leg, as ' well as shock, last Thursday when his car went out of control and overturned on a curve at Rt. 176 and Barreville road, near Burton's Bridge. He was taken to the Memorial hospital, Woodstock, for. treatment. An accident occurred last week a mile north of the Cook-Lake county line, in which a McHenry area main, Frank L. Wagner, was involved. A car driven by the Frank Puccis of Palatine was struck in the rear by the Wagner auto as the first car waited to make a left turn. The taxpayers of Illinois are helping to pay for the costs of government services in cities and towns owned and operated by the federal government throughout the country. The residents of these federally-owned local governments don't pay a dime in local taxes -- the local government services come "free" -- courtesy of the taxpayers throughout the nation. These facts were brought out in a report of the taxpayers' Federation of Illinois. A comparison of expenditures in the federally-owned town of Coulee Dam in the state of Washington with expenditures in ten other Washington towns of comparable size is reported in the July issue of "Tax Outlook". The police force in Coulee Dam cost $8,600; in the average of the other ten towns, it was $6,- 800. The fire department in the government-built town cost $13,- 000; the average in the other cities, $2,308. The street lighting was $6,200 in Coulee Dam; but $2,200 in the other cities. The streets cost $16,000 annually in Coulee Dam; in the other cities, $9,600 a year. Parks and recreation in Coulee Dam were $20,000 a year; $2,000 a year in the other cities of comparable size. Garbage collection in Coulee Dam cost $22,500 a year, as compared to $5,270 for the other communities. The general cost of government in Coulee Dam, the overhead cost, was $13,400. The average of ten other tow;ns of similar size in the state was $7,300. The population of Coulee Dam in 1950 was 2,741. Residents of the ten other towns pay for their local services through local taxes. Residents of Coulee Dam don't -- and this has been going on for eighteen years. Boulder City, Nev., established back in the days when Boulder Dam was being built is still owned, operated and financed by Uncle Sam. A 23Jbed hospital runs a deficit there of between $40,000 and $60,000 a year at federal expense. In Los Alamos, the bus service operates at an annual loss of approximately $60,000 -- at the expenses of the taxpayers of Illinois and other states. These are not isolated cases. There are other federal towns and cities scattered throughout the nation.
