Page Four THEMcHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, SO I HEAR ... If you haven't looked around your back yard lately, it is about time you get out there. Know what we found? Our rhubarb is popping out of the ground. Spring must be here and our snow shovel hasn't been used. (Please note. This was written Tuesday night. You know the color of your back yard on Wednesday morning.) Soon our feathered friends will fly jp from the south and take over. We carried an old grudge against birds for a long time, but that has been washed away and now we even feed old bread to sparrows in the winter time. WOW! Those Majors did some bowling this week. Bob Larsen is listed with a 278 game and 684 series. That's timber in any man's league.. Harold Jensen had a dream series of 661 and Bob Abram 620. Now. all of these were bowled in the same match as the Mr. Gus Tavern team piled up 3055 pins. Glen Palmer Honored Wait a minute. Here comes Joe Etten with a 640 series. And somebody accuses us of skipping a 267 game and 600 plus series for Larry Nimsgern just because he is a Cub fan. Reason enough! Joan Bauer, MCHS student, has an article on this page telling about a special basketball treat coming Monday, March 13. Ladies on the faculty will play the GAA team in the first game. This we want to see. In the second game the senior boys will meet a strong lineup consisting of members of the coaching staff. You really should see these games.

In ihe semi-f i n a 1 s the Champs ran into a combination of a tough defense and their own sluggishness and barely squeeked by St. Mary's of Sterling, 24-21. St. Mary's of Aurora then edged by St. Mary's of Rockford 28-25. For the consolation third place trophy, St. Mary's of Sterling came from behind to nip St. Mary's of Rockford 34-29.

MCHS TEAM ENDS SEASON WITH LOSS IN ELGIN TOURNEY Bob Beckenbaugh The Warriors ended their basketboll season with a loss to the host team, Elgin high, in the regional tourney. The Warriors trailed by only 2 points at the half 32-30, but within minutes the Elgin Maroons spurted ahead and maintained ihis lead. So we lost by 13 points. The previous evening the Warriors bested the Woodstock Blue Streaks 53- 47. While we were not pleased to see McHenry lose their last game, they did have a good season having tied for second place in the conference. Certainly at this time we sh6uld remember thofee who didn't'get a chance to play much but did provide opposition in practice for those who did. Let's also salute the coaches and the boys i for supplying us with many enjoyable evenings. Don't forget with the spring sun comes <the spring athletes of baseball, track, and golf and I'm sure they would appreciate your attention and support. 9.19^ ST.
