THEMcHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, May 9, 1957 Protect & Kelly Brown Northern lllini Bowmen News By Irene J. Adams Just between us, dear readers, this column is so close to deadline that we may miss the finish line like Willie Schoemaker in the Kentucky Derby. j The Northern lllini Bowmen ' I held their club shoot on May 5. We are suffering from chills I Enjoying the animal targets as "as we try to put together a sports ! well as Sunday s beautiful sunpage and will not try to deny j shine were 56 members and that those slipping White Sox guests. , may be the cause of it all. 1 Winers were: I Expert Men--1 - Van Graham Of ocurse, those well-wishing1 --2 - Paul Glass. Cub fans remembered to phone us after the Yankee series. And, after the Cubs won a ball game Sunday ,Ed Doyle got carried away with the idea that the World Series will be between the Yankees and Cubs. That boy has been totin' too much thirds class mail. We noted that two of Mc- • Henry's real fine couples cele-; brated their twenty-fifth wedding j anniversaries the past week and i found ourself going back down! memory lane. It was A1 and! Alice Barbian and George and Martha Freund who hit the 25-; year mark. , Seems to us we attended a charivari on the Barbians but j can't recall nailing "Butch" for: the drinks. After 25 years as partners and j useful citizens in McHenry, we j want to get in our corigratulations I to both couples. ! Bowmen Men--1 - Roy Engfors --2 - Walter Rueger--3 - Don Kulen. Archer Men--1 - Bob Ellsworth --2 - Bob Alderton--3 - John Farley. Archer Women--1 - Dorothy Rueger--2 - Clara Perry--3 - Dorothy Johnson. Novice Men--1 - Wally Chowanski. . Novice Women--1 XMary. Kulen --2 - Eunice Siebold. Jr. Boys--1 - Gene Stilling. Visitors awards went to Charles Grandt and Mary Davis of the River Park Club. Irene Adams won a third place award in the archer division at the Spring State Bow-hunters shoot at Aurora recently. - The Bowmen will hold their next meeting on May 16, at the American Legion Home at McHenry. The time is 8:15. Movies taken of members at the range will be shown. Anyone interested may attend. Springtime activities, whether it & a happy gardening scene like this, or the first eandlot baseball game of the year, offer excellent picture opportunities. Spring Activities Call for Camera Action In the county league next Sunday we find the McHenry Shamrocks scheduled to play Mandy's at Elgin, ^Juchmond will invade Johp£burg in a game that may JW a lot of light on how this ace is going to shape up. We hear that Ray Miller has ideas of a championship this year. Ray has had some good ball teams and could have been on top a couple of times with the help of one or two more ball players. Joe Frett is faced with a rebuilding job this year and it will be quite a job to replace fellows like Howie Katz, Howie Freund and • Bob Klaus. -- BOWLING BAR -- Thurs. Nite Ladies-- Final Standings: In the only tight ball game in the county league last Sunday, Crystal Lake edged Dundee 3 to 2. The Shamrocks would be very happy to see more of you fans at their games. It looks like the team is on the way up.

But, now in addition to having 30 days, we find April is now a month composed of National Arts and Crafts Week, National Model Building Week, National Coin Week, National Garden Week, National Photography Week and National Do-It- Yoyrself Week! This just goes to prove that spring is a season humming witJb all kinds of activities which make fine subjects for the family snapshooter. It's really "open season" for shooting and you. can't afford to Let your camera be idle much of the time. Spring brings longer days--days that may boast a chill in the shade but a sudden soft warmth in the sun--which means more activities out-of-doors and more outdoor shooting. And sure as the solstice jtself, it's a time for putting the family's best foot forward in bright spring finery--a time for painting and polishing everything in sight around the house--a time when every housewife assaults her home from basement to attic and feels compelled to move every piece of furniture in the place. Everywhere, lawns and parks andxwoods explode in a surf of green. And the home gardener, too, knows it's time to "bend his back and dig" if he wants the "results and roses" Edgar A. Guest used to write verses about. Sports loom large on the spring horizon, too--everything from the informal launching of the marble season to the formal debut of bigleague baseball. And speaking of baseball, we're sure there are more than a few fathers umpiring some fine sandlot games right now! As you can see, all the activities we've mentioned are part of the spring picture--an important segment of family living that deserves to be recorded as it happens. "Spring adds a precious seeing to the eye," Shakespeare said-- and there.'$fSttich to see around us amid the light-hearted harlequin moods of people and the weather. Even if you can't predict exactly what man or the elements will do, you can be sure they'll be doing something. --John Van Guilder SHAMROCKS SLAM BALL TO WIN 15 - 6 OVER HEBRON NINE -- McHENRY RECREATION -- Foresters-- B.

The McHenry Shamrocks slammed out 16 hits to beat Hebron 15 to 6 oh the McHenry diamond last Sunday in the first game of the county league race. Kulin pitched all the way for the Shamrocks, allowing only three hits and one run in the first seven innings. Enjoying a 14-1 lead, Kulin must have decided to ease up a bit in the eighth when Hebron scored five runs on six hits. In six trips to the plate, Mike Nichols rapped out two singles, a double, triple and drew a base on balls. Becknell, Jaskot, and Howard Knox hit the ball hard, giving the impression that McHenry may have some punch in the 3-4-5 JOHNSBURG TIGERS 1 WIN WILD GAME AT ELGIN VFW. 14-11 'Twas a wild ball game at Elgjn last Sunday as the Johnsbut^; Tigers beat the V.F.W. 34 l^i* In the first inning, the put across 9 runs and looked like a shoo-in. Along came Elgin with 2 runs in their half, then 8 more in the second to gain the lead. From that point on the game settled down in spite of some early season errors committed % both teams. Dick. Hiller hit a honjie run $ Johnsburg. With the ' opening game about a month away, we still have not given up hopes^of playing this summer on our own ball diamond. We were very disappointed last week that our hopes for starting on the di^imopd' at the V.F.W. were shattered by unlooked for circumstances, but as long as the V.F.W. wants us to , have a diamond on theif grounds, we are going to get an estimate^ this week on grading the dwtfhond and try to defray the expense by selling advertising on the Home Run fence. We have had quite a few offers for ads already and feel that we can build the field ourselves and give these boys a field of our own. , To start things' off, our good friend Bernie Peschke gave me his check for the fii*st. advertisement. Many thanks, Bernie. Anyone interested in this project to help a nice group of boys have a Pony League diamond of their own,- please contact any of the officer^ or managers or call me at 445-,R; and we will be very glad to explain it to you. Lets show these boys that we will not let them down. USFS ague The tryouts for all boys were completed Tuesday night at the city ball park. After tryouts the .managers met to select the Major league teams. The minor league teams will be chosen sometime next week. The playing schedule will start Sunday, June 2nd. All players will be notified by their manager, as to which team they are to play on. Approximately 280 boys registered for Little League this year. The need for supervision is our greatest problem. If you enjoy working with children, we would be -glad to have your help. You can volunteer by calling any of the league officers or managers.
