McHenry Country Club News by Frank Rourke - The Pony League season came to a close Sunday and it was the decision of the officers to name the Sox and Braves as Co-Champions. A play-off was planned, but dropped when found that high school football practice was starting this week and many players would not be able to participate. The McHenry Shamrocks want you to know that they are sponsoring a dance at the American Legion hall on Saturday night of this week. - Players are beating the bushes this week in an effort to sell tickets and stir up a good attendance at the dance. They want to sell tickets, but also want you to join them Saturday night for a gay old time. We started this column too late this week. The phone fings, people come in, the phone rings again and time runs out. - Next week will be different. That's our Labor Day resolution.

Bob was joined on the trip by Emil Simon. Dick Freund and Lenney Ant onsen. They rented a trailer and it was loaded with clothes, refreshments, food, refreshments, fishing gear (doubtful) and more refreshments. Apparently good time was had by all. Bob claims they caught 150 fish. No one doubted this fine catch.'They returned early Fri- 1ay morning. Sunday morning Emil forfeited his match with a stiff neck. He claims he got t driving back from the fishing trip as the window was open and the draft was constantly )n his neck. One stoi-y led to mother. Bob was then asked, "where are the fish?" "Oh. • he fish! To make a long stoi*y short we had to bury the fish as we forgot the ice." Can you imagine them forgetting ice with all that food and refreshments. Next year they are going to ask Joe-Frett and Bill Tonyan to go with them. Sorry to report that Ed Buss tore a cartilage in his knee and will be out of action for the balance of the year. It's awful- ,Hullaballoo oh why bring that up!! Had a nice guest day last Tuesday. 18 girls from Belmar came over to enjoy the hospitality.

PISTAKEE COUNTRY CLUB NEWS CHARTER GRANTED The state has granted a charter to the Wheelers Hot- Rod club, organized for the safer conduct of motor vehicles,, educational, etc. . Pistakee Country Club's Thursday Twilight League is approaching the final green on the 1961 season with two of the ten teams deadlocked for first place and another tenacious quartet in hot pursuit, just 3'/2 points off the pace. Competence of competitors gives added allure to achievements of individuals and teams, according to LaVerne Golofit who computes and tabulates weekly figures. A few spins of her comptometer discloses this proof of her observation: Over the season, approximately 40 per cent of the 50 league members have scored better than 41 at least once on Pistakee's challenging 9-hole, par-36 course. Almost 85 per cent of the players tallied a 45 or less. Only two players failed to.break 50 this summer. The Wauconda T-Birds, captained by Tony Victor with his "strategician" Ed Underwood, chirped merrily in first place most of the summer. Now, with the pin on the last chapter in range, Al Thelen's swingers have moved in to share the spotlight at the top. "Both teams recorded 52% points thus far. Al Hill's team holds third place with 49 points, just 3% points ahead of Wall.v Golofit and his crew, with 45%. Chet Cole and his aggregation round out the first division with 41 Mi points. Carl Westin's fine 2-underpar 34 on the sporty course continues to hold the lowgross spot. Jim Jensen and Jack Williams are two slots behind with 36's. Low net honors for the season to date arc held by Wally Golofit with 39- 11-28. Bill Christman (46-17- 29) and George Guetzloff (38- 8-301 hold down second and third place, respectively.
