The boys explain Chat the opposition was only "leSs ^tirSe." ^ i \ - [ We hear that our Warrior basketball team meets Antioch in the regional meet at Elgin. That's a real nice order, but none of the games came cheap When you get into the regional. There's a big dish of basketball coming up this weekend. On Friday night our teams travel" to Libertyville. We'll get to see that beautiful new gym that vandals temporarily wrecked before the season started. Coach Fulton should have both Roil May and Dick Joosten avail-, able for this game. That gives him size under the boards. Crystal Lake will be here Saturday night with a group that was good enough to win the county championship and then take the measure of the Dundee Cardunals. Fans really turned out for the Barrington game here. Now let's see a full house Saturday night. With stores closed, there is a Chance for many fans to see this fame. ' ."Torch" Krause tells us that tvttf famous bowlers, Krumske Kowalics, will appear at the irling Bar Saturday night, eb. 12, between the hours of 'and 11 o'clock^ J.

IN EASY VICTORY AT WARREN HIGH 58-35 In fact they hadn't heard of toeless shoes for any season. The dnly time you saw a cut out rfhoe was when grandpa had a tjtmion. It started out like a real tussle as Coach Cuda's J.V. boys gained enly .a 1 point edge in the fi^st quarter over Warren Friday night, but the boys started to pull away in the second quarter. The little Warriors outscored Warren 28 to 12 in the last half and had easy sailing to a 58-35 win. Coach Cuda was able to get his entire squad into the game and each player,, entered the scoring column. McHenry J.V. (58) Caron McMahon Useman Jus ten Zimmerman Conway Cepulis J. Huemann Hogan DECKHt SCORES 41 POINTS FOR WARREN VICTORY Dick Joosten Hits 33 For Warriors In Losing 85 To 66 The McHenry Warrior basketball team travelled over to Warren High at Gurnee Friday night and scored enough points to win an ordinary game. But, the team ran into some extraordinary shooting by that boy Decker and had to take it on the chin 85 to 66. Were it not for the sensational shooting by Decker our own boy, Dick Joosten, would easily rate top billing in any story. Here's how they swished the nets. Decker sank 41 points on 13 field goals and 15 free throws. He made 15 straight shots from the free throw line before missing two in the final stages of the game. Joosten, playing his first conference game of the season, dropped in 11 field go a15 and 11 free throws for 33 points. -- Get Your Scorecard -- At the-big games they say you can't tell the players without a score card. This was almost the case as McHenry presented a revised lineup. As you know, Yokley was lost to the team at semester time. Ron May as on the sick list. Frank Oeffling turned in his suit. Green was suited, but reported to be grounded because of missing practice. Coach Fulton started Dick Joosten, John Huff, Tom Oeffling, Greg Nowak and Bernie Schmitt. McHenry kept the score within reason in the first half, then everybody began to hit for Warren in the third period. Tom Oeffling, who has had his ups and downs this season, gave it a great try Friday night and deserves credit for feeding the ball in to Joosten. That's how team work pays off. John Huff was a busy fellow all through the game and registered 19 points. Too much Decker!

WRESTLING *• •» "i • •** By Ralph Patzke The first annual North Suburban wrestling tournament was held last Saturday in the M.CH.S. gym. Teams competing were McHenry, Crystal Lake, Warren and Zion Benton. v In the qualifying rounds in the morning all but one of the McHenry boys were victorious and advanced to the finals in the afternoon. Going into the final match of the day McHenry and Zion were tied and it rested on the heavyweights to decide the winner. In this match John Sternickle lost to the Zion heavyweight 4-2, and Zion took the tournament by two points. Editor's Note: We are sorry that picture of wrestlers will have to be run next week. MARENGO MAN WINS GUESSING CONTEST IN COUNTY TOURNEY Much fun and interest was added to the McHenry County Basketball Tournament for the spectator this year. The new idea was the giving away of a new Gruen watch that was donated by a Marengo Jewelry. Anyone except basketball players and school officials were eligible to enter the contest. The contest involved the picking of the s^ven tournament game winners and to guess the most nearly, correct score for each game. Five-hundred and sixteen guesses were entered by fans from all over McHenry County. Going into the Championship Game only 61 of the original 516 ballots were still in the running for the watch. Erhardt Kolberg, Marengo, was the lucky man who picked the scores and winnsrs of each game in the McHenry Co.unty Tournament. ^ I Protect Your Dog PnB T>TSDT &V fWP # ^ Against Distemper FOR DISPLAY OF LICENSE PLATES Classified Ads Bring Results Pla«k Tours IWtth the Plaindeater McHENRY THEATRE 218 S.

All applications received by Feb. l can be processed in the two-week period and motorists should receive their plates by that date, he said. Secretary Carpentier also advised persons who have received their plates to put them on. the vehicles without delay. Many cars are being driven with low number 1954 plates on thetn although ' the owner had the numbers reassigned and have had the .1955 plates for a month or morer he said. All reassigned numbers will be in the" mail by the end of this week, Mr* Carpentier said. High numbers reassigned could not be mailed earlier because space does not permit delivery and storage of all plates at one time, he 'said. All plates have been delivered now, and the reassigned numbers have been sorted out and are being placed in the mail! "Two million of the approximate three million motor vehicle owners in Illinois have complied with the law at present," Secretary Carpentier said. "We are in a position to handle the remain' ing one-third without delay, if car owners will send their applications to us. It is an obligation to the State of Illinois that they are required to meet, and I hope they will do it before they become subject to penalties."

Each year manyrr children suffer such losses because their dogs were not vaccinated against distemper. - Distemper is one of the mbst common diseases of dog?, "says Dr. A- G. Schiller of the ^College of Veterinary Medicine 'at* the University of Illinois. r The veterinarian says that if your dog is under two yearB or age, if he is not vaccinated3 and especially if he comes into contact with other dogs, he may get distemper. Older dogs may, however, get the disease also, and at almost any timie of the year. % Once the disease* strides, the animal has little better than a 50-50 chance for recovery, and if lie lives he may be permanently affected. Dr. Schiller recommends that all dogs over three months of age be given a permanent type of vaccine that will protect them the rest of their lives. Puppies under three months of age can be given temporary protection by use of serum. Don't take a chance on losing your child's pet. Take it to your veterinarian and have it vaccinated against distemper . Subscribe To The Plalndealer THURS., FRL & SAT.
