THE McHENRY PIJUNDEALER • x A Wednesday, M \ 1"AO" BKecUtTS School vacations are over for fc while and our weary students wend their way back to their chores. Teachers ,we trust, are well-rested and fortified for the task of pounding some knowledge into the heads of their dear stu- , dents. And, now we get back to the basketball schedule -- full of hopes (be sure to put the "e" on that word). The Warriors will face Like Forest here Friday night. No foolin' -- we look for a home victory. Our . boys can win. They just haven't come up with the habit. We have never seen much wrong with any team that a couple of victories couldn't cure. McHenry High did not enter any holiday tournaments this year so all good fans should be anxious to attend the games Friday night. Frank Piller, president of the Parents Association at Christ The King Church at Wonder Lake, is hard at work on the promotion of a C.Y.O. boxing show to be held in the MCHS gym February 26. The participants will be boys under the direction of Tony Zale. Proceeds will •be turned into the school building fund. Frank will have more news for us on this as time goes on. Next Tuesday night, January 11, the Fulton and Cuda Warriors travel to Hebron to play the Green Giants in a non-conference game. Like everybody else, we had some rough years against Hebron. This may be our year. Anyhow, we plan to go up and see., T^jfe county tournament will be placed in Marengo's new gym this -year, starting Saturday, Jan. 22.;fMcHenry meets the Blue of Woodstock on Monday Jan. 24. many folks tell us they d home for a quiet time Year's Eve. All old folks. E.

Anonymous J0HHSNR6IS WNCU6AM IN PARISH MEET Bishop Hillinger * Presents Trophy To The Champions The St. John's basketball team of Johnsburg successfully defended its crown in the second annual Parish Tournament sponsored by the McHenry Council Knights of Columbus. The tournament tended Sunday night in the MCHS gym with Johnsburg defeating St. Thomas of Crystal Lake 62 to 39 in the championship game. Bishop Hillinger presented the trophy to the team captain, Loren Freund, and „ then gave hearty approval to the tournament idea and other promotions of this nature. Bisihop Hillinger stressed the .character building aspects of sports participation and left no doub>t of his' interest in youth movements. The sponsors were highly honored by the presence of Bishop Hillinger and appreciation was expressed by Grand Knight LeRoy Welter. In the first game Sunday afternoon, St. Thomas defeated St. Patrick's 46 to 41. With John Bolger leading the scoring with 12 of his 18 points in the last half, the St. Pat five closed the gap from a 24 to 11 score at half time. Crystal Lake scored 9 of their 13 points in the last quarter from the free throw line. The Johnsburg team stayed in the race by defeating St. Mary's of Woodstock 48 to 39 in the second game of the afternoon. Scoring was well spread as Tom Huemann led the winners, with 14 points and Ron Ford sank 12 for the losers. The evening program led off with a game between the grade school teams representing the two McHenry parishes. St. Patrick's dominated the play in this one as Math Eichinger controlled rebounds, fed his mates like a T-formation quarterback and tied his mate, Jimmy Conway, with 13 points. Mark Vycital led the losers with 12 points, scoring 4 field goals and 4' free throws. Final score was 37 to 28. In the championship game, it seemed that Johnsburg had youth and condition on its side, coming back strong after playing an afternoon game that extended the boys for three quarters. Rooney, a real good basketball player, and Parsley each scored 14 points for Crystal Lake. Parsley was the take charge man on the team and hustled all the way. The losers had tremendous size on their squad, but -lacked the Scoring punch that showed all the way through the St. John lineup. Father McGowan introduced Bishop Hillinger, then took a "rib" for fouling out in the afternoon game. Northern Mini Bowmen News Northern Illini Bowmen new officers are: President, Jay Crick, McCullom Lake; vicepresident, Edwin Olsen, Lake . yilla; and re-elected for secre I tary-treasurer was Irene Adams of McHenry.

The next meeting of the N.I. l$PWraen will toe on Thursday night, Jan. 20, at Sports Unlipwed. Do you'think yours is a typical Illinois family? A group of heating engineers just released some figures on this state which will reveal how your own family and home measure up. The average family living under one roof consists of threfe persons., The family occupies an apartment or house of about four rooms and pays an average rent around forty-one dollars a month. In the case of families that live in their own house, the average house is worth about eight thousand dollars. The heating engineers also came up with some interesting figures about facilities inside Illinois homes. They say only 74 per cent of the families in Illinois have their oton inside bathtub or shower installation. About 76 per cent have hot and cold running water. The experts found that only 68 per cent of the families in Illinois are kept warm in winter by central heating equipment. But, they add, even so, this is a tremendous advance over ten years ago, There's also been a big increase in thermostats and automatic heating controls. In fact, an especially large number of Illinois homes now have electronic controls that were completely unknown a decade ago. These new systems utilize both outdoor as well as Indoor thermostats. All in all, it looks as if the average Illinois family will have a p'retty comfortable winter. Paul Yanda and his band were in good form as they added pep to the program. Mayor Freund gave an able response to his introduction, adding encouragement to the continuation of such promotions. The annual March of Dimes opened this week with a sober note of caujtion from Basil O'Connor, president of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. Pointing out that "we still do not know if the trial polio vaccine has prevented one case of paralytic polio," Mr. O'Connor stated that "this factor, plus the large number Of patients still needing help, means that fighting polio is a bigger job now." "I know that parents are anxiously waiting for the answer,. Mr. OConnor said. "The scientific evaluation of the yaccine developed by Dr. Jonas E. Salk is a timeconsuming and precise job • -- - involving detailed records on 1,830,000 children who either were vaccinated or are act-, tog as controls." The Poliomyelitis Vaccine Evaluation Center at the Uni- ; versity of Michigan is now studying data on children in 14,000 schools in the 217 study areas. 27 Laboratories at V Twenty-seven laboratories fritre processing and testing some 40,000 blood samples taken from participating children to determine the amount of protective antibodies against polio present in their bloodstreams. Before the Evaluation Center can put tiie jigsaw pieces of information together and arrive at an answer, all data must be entered on the children's coded record cards, then analyzed. This process cannot be hurried, Mr. O'Connor said. What if the evaluation report proves the vaccine to be effective? The National Foundation already has taken a calculated financial risk by obligating $9,- 000,000 In 1955 March of Dimes lands for the manufacture, this winter, of additional vaccine. This was done so that enough of it to vaccinate 9,000,000 persons will be ready in the spring without charge for the' product. The purpose was to make_ some vaccine available immediately* if licensed, and to keep manufacturing facilities tooled up for continued production. If the vaccine evaluation re- Eort is negative or inconclusive, [arch of Dimes-financed vaccine research will' be intensified. The National Foundation research program has not been halted during the evaluation. •sga®*** foB JUSTOfe PHAM Of TOE EVALUATION, REPORTS COME PBOM ZfOOOjOOO TE9T TUBES. the VETERA* POL© EXPERT TOIW 19 KALUATlNa WIA FOB 1958 RSPOflT TO ANSWER THE QUESTION: POfS THE SAUK .
