Brother, you should write a column one wajr «nd have it come out in jfrint U1 turned around. 1 Everybody is innocent, . of course. But the finger points to a guy named Moore, a guy nameki Rooksby and an accessory to the crime named "Howdy." Last week we came out with glowing praise of those Chicago Cubs and their out-in-the-open fans. Then tinged the praise with a sneak punch in which we hoped the Cubs would make it to play our Sox in the World Series. But type lice creeped in and loused up the best laid plans for a left handed pat on the back .0 our dear Cub followers. When the papers hit the news stands, we had all too timidly hoped that our Sox would be able to make it. That's how our dear pals had made it t^ad. Baft one of these days--!

Si l^eyer and Jim Freund were Perched on the left with a portable radio to pick up the big 'rogue scores. And they had one ">f those new-fangled insulated ' lags fiBed with refreshments. Just a penthouse in the sky. #- Melvin Freund got a foul tip ^n the end of a finger and may ^e out of action for quite a while. He was doing a real good job behind the plate. v Art Jackson still covers plenty °f ground in center field. On one , occasion he was in to back up a May at second base and took the overthrow to prevent further advancement. Plays like that >ften make a big difference in ., a close game. Arch Urdangien was on hand nnd let us know that his team will be stronger next week when ' .some of the college boys, return. That's just lhamrocks. The here next Sunda1 K!

J0HMSBUR6 HAS EASY TIME WITH BOOSTERS. 14-1 Tigers Travel To Algonquin Sunday Where Battle Looms The Johnsburg Tigers entertained the Crystal Lake Boosters last Sunday afternoon in a lopsided ball game that ended 14 to 1, not in favor of the visiting team. ' The Boosters came up with a patch-quilt outfit that is supposed to gain strength with the landing of a few college boys ere another Sunday dawns. The Tigers scored three runs in the first inning and for all practical purposes that was enough. But, the game moved on ansa was completed in 2 hours and 15 minutes despite a lot of activity. The Boosters wrapped two hits around a base on balls in the fourth for their only run. John Toomey was pitching for Johnsburg at this point, enjoying a good margin. Ed Jackson pitched the last 'three innings, allowing only one hit. A Goggin couldn't get the ball over in the second so Rudy gave it a whirl with fair success until the sixth. Then it was McMillan's turn to throw. With a fast delivery and ability to hit the corners, McMillan got along just fine in two out of three innings. The power boys, notably a triple toy Lloyd Freund, gave him trouble with three runs in the seventh. The box score shows LdoyO Freund with 5 runs in only 2 official times at bat. He walked the first three trips. Manager Joe Frett had a chance to substitute freely as the complexion of the game caused no undue nerve strain in the masterminding department.

CRYSTAL LAKE MERCHANTS TOP McHENRY 4 T03 Boosters Come To Town Next Sunday And Micks Plan For the third straight game the Shamrocks have lost by that narrowest of margins -- 1 fun. This time it was the Merchants who turned the trick 4 to 3 at Crystal Lake. The McHenry team scored a run in the fifth when A1 Bockman singled, stole second and came home as Howard Knox got his second hit. It was in the last of the fifth that the Merchants scored all of their runs. And "Sonny" Miller could have been out of trouble in this one if an error hadn't shown up when the third out should have been accomplished. Singles by Dale Feffer and Norm Britz followed. Then tame a triple by Wahlin, a young first baseman whose 4 for 4 made him the demon batsman of the day In the Shamrocks scheme. The McHenry boys looked at some pretty good pitching dished up by a fellow naimetdi Olesen. Schooner gave ithe McHenry team a ray of hope when he got a pinch hit in the eighth, but no help came along to edge that important run around the bases.

Despite the fact that our girls didn't look half as good as they are, th^y managed to squeeze^ in a run in the last half of seventh to beat the Chicago Roamers 9 to 8. Last year the Roamers beat our girds in $ 2 out of 3 series. It is also interesting to note that in all 3 games the runs scored by b$th teams last year didn'it add uj»f«to the runs scored by /the Roamers alone in last night's game; 7 The Speedettes' pitchers s$£m to have a great deal of trouble with their control. It was lucky for us the Roamers' catching department was equally as pobr. Actually the Roamers only £ot five hits, as Idid the Speedettes Two highlights of the g&ne were a triple by Jean Considine, Speedette pitcher (.who iii&id pitchers don't hit?) and a steal from second to third by *ur Canadian, Darlene Smith, second baseman, who scored on a tiftld throw to cross the plate for r$he winning run. A very alert, <ffl§etfooted gal. The girls are trying very to be self supporting this y6ctr. However, possibly because of, the weather, not too many fans appeared at the game. The girls fell far short of the necessary expense money to continue playing untdier the lights. It is hoped •that the people of McHenry will oome out and watch our girls play. The manager is sure once our girls settle down you will see sofitball games that will - be a pleasure to watch. f Next week the Speedettes play host to a newly organized Chicago team, "The China Dolls." Though these players are playing together for the first time, -the members of this team are all seasoned ball players. It might be -said here that several players a few years 'back played pro ball but how are reinstated to ajuateur ranks. This in itself «nvinces our girls they'll be 'po pushovers. .2 Come on, McHenry, supj||rt the team. They are good with your help one day w^'re going to bring back the world's amateur championship to Give our gals a chance to started. There is one addition to team that wasn't given in week's Speedette lineup and gal is Lorraine Page, a and classy fielder. Speedettes (9) AB Peg Whiting % 3 E. Kmet 3 J.

Insecurity too often hides beiind a oloak of cynicism. A master at finesse never misses a chance to turn a minus into a plus. Acting "out of character" creates a minor role, could cause a major catastrophe. ©wen the sturdiest wheel needs many smaller spokes far support.
