A double in the 3rd inning by Palatine hurler Jack Frost, and a pinch single in the seventh -inning were the only bo\VIs off the slants of Schmidt. He walked five and struck out seven, while chalking up the Warrior second shutout conference victory. A two run outburst in the Warrior first inning was all the cushion Schmidt needed. A leadoff hit by second baseman John Hiller, an error, a v/ three walks provided the Orange and Black scoring. The Warriors tallied another run in the 4th inhing, and iced the game with a three run spree on a trio of hits in the fifth. Tim Fair, center fielder, and Ilillcr, each had a pair of hits. Ted Frcund and junior Tom Palvic had two runs batted in apiece. Pirates Win Second Game The Pirates turned the tables in the second game as they won it by the score of 7-3. Bob Carver, seniof* curve bailer, held the Warriors in check as his mates took advantage of five Vyalks, ^n error, and added a base hit in piling up five runs in the fourth inning. Bill Cable started for the Warriors and was moving along in fine style until he encountered control trouble in the 4th. Tom Palvic took over in. the fourth and finished up, giving two runs on four hits during1 his stint. First Game McHenry 800 130 0--6 8 2 Palatine 000 000 0--0 2 1 McHenry -- Schmidt and L. Smith.

I'll re|>e£t the time and place for each age group to report so there will be no confusion. Tryouts will be Mid St the I4ttle League Field next Sunday, April 21st. Only registered pl^yers vvho did not play on a major league team last year may report for tryouts at the following time. Eight year olds at 1:00 p.m. Nine year olds at 1:30 p.m.; Ten year olds at 2:00 p.m.; and eleven and twelve year olds report at 2:30 p.m. In case of severe weather, the tryouts will be postponed one week. However, we will make every effort to get the job done on the 21.st. because of conflicting activities on the 28th. 1 JfcX Th« ft Great ' °utdoon By Jack Walsh iimiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilii TroUi. fishermen may be interested in hearing that the Department of Conservation has recently released approximately 30,000 trout in Illinois streams and pounds. Of this total, 9,000 are brown trout and 21,000 ar rainbows. Brown trout have been released in the following streams: Apple River in Apple River Canyon State Park near Warren in JoDaviess County; Pine Creek in White Pines Forest State Park near Oregon in Ogle County; North Fork of Kent Creek in Pages Park near Rockford in Winnebago County; Pierce Creek near Lanark in Carroll County; and Boone Creek here in McHenry. These streams are stocked and ready for fishermen. Rainbows have been released in Axehead Lake in the Cook County Forest Preserve and in two spring-fed ponds near Coleta in Whiteside County. The Coleta ponds will open at 6 a.m. on April 20th. Brown trout were chosen for streams because they tend to do less migrating than rainbows. Illinois trout fishing is "put and take" and if they are not caught before summer, they will probably not survive due to flooding and warm water. The limit is eight trout a day and the possession limit is 16. There is no size limit. The Harvard Sportsmen's Club, located at the junction of Routes 23 and 14, has a busy schedule for the coming weekend. Friday, April 19, they are having a smelt fry, which is open to the public, beginning at 6 p.m. Sunday, April 21, a trap shoot is scheduled from 1 p.m. till it ends. Sandwiches and coffee will be available in the club house. The Ninth Coast Guard District has announced that the majority of federal boating violations issued in 1962 resulted from the improper display of awarded numbers on small pleasure boats powered by more than ten horsepower. The violations were due to the lack of spacing between the numbers and letters, poor, contrast, and insufficient size.! •fhese' are the .federal required mcnts for the display of awarded numbers. They must: 1. Be at least three inches in height (excluding any border and trim), and of good proportion or block design. 2. Be in contrast with the color of the hull or background, such as black on white or white on black. 3. Have a hyphen or space between the letters and numbers. For example OH-1234-AA or MC 1234 AA. „--4~ Be displayed on the forward half of the hull (not under the flare of the bow). The MCHS golf team traveled to Grayslake last Monday for their first match of the season with an impressive 9-1 victory over Grayslake. Three returning lettermen; John Rourke, Chris Newkirk, and Bill Funk should form the nucleus for this year's team. Butch Meyer, Buzz Frett, Tom Carlson, Craig Adams, Rich Piatt. Roy Moss, and Paul Liebman should give added support to make this a fine season. Scores for the varsity match are as follow: John Rourke won 44-45, Bill Funk won 40- 41, Chris Newkirk won 43-44, Buzz Frett won 43-51, and Tom Carlson won 42-48. The sophomore match was also won by McHenry by an 8-2 score. A few of the sophomore scores were just as impressive for this first match. Craig Adams won 42-52, Butch Meyer won 41-48, Rich Piatt won 46-54, Roy Moss lost 49- 4T, and Paul Liebman tied 51- 51. All scores represent nine hole scores. There was a record turnout of 37 boys for the golf team this year. The next match is on Thursday at Dundee and the first home match is Monday, April 22, against Zion- Benton. DIVOT DOLLS The Ladies Golf Association of McHenry Country Club is preparing to swing again. The golfing season will open officially with the Spring Luncheon on Tuesday, April 23rd. Luncheon will be served at twelve o'clock, followed by a style show. The models will be our own Divot Dolls, of course. There is to be a green stamp shower that day and we urge all members to bring any extra books of stamps that may be cluttering your desk drawers. We are in need of a few necessities for our lounge and your green stamps may make all the difference in our being able to procure them. On Saturday, April 29th, there will be a Hard Times party. The committee, headed by "Doc" and MariSfn Donnelly and Dick and Dorothy Freund, has been having great fun pltfhning this one so don't miss it! Remember, your guests aine welcome, too.

MISS MASS WINS STATE TROPHIES IN HORSE SHOWS Miss Melinda Mass, 15, has been awarded four state championship trophies by the Illinois Quarter Horse association for her riding ability and her prize winning performances in horse shows held throughout the state during 1962. She received championship trophies for "Junior Pleasure" rider and for her horse as a "Pleasure Horse." Sfhe also received reserve championship honors for "Junior Horsemanship" and "Junior Cutting." The classes she participates in are for riders 16 years of age and younger. Awards were made at the annual meeting of the Illinois Quarter Horse association at Bloomington. Melinda's horse is Quin Hancock, a palimino gelding. The young lady, a sophomore at Marian Central high school, is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Mass of McCullom Lake. i Track Events Draw Interest As MCHS Builds For Future While competition in track meets is mighty tough this year, Coach Don Seaton's boys are giving it all they have and can see bright days ahead and interest runs high. Last Thursday Woodstock took the meet with 65% points. Zion was second with 48Va and McHenry third with 34. George Koch, a sophomore, won the 100 yard dash in 10:4. O'Brien won the 440 in 55:7, Sluga was first in the mile with 4:54:5, and Koch's 23:5 time was first in the 220. On Thursday of this week, McHenry was host to Barrington and a power packed squad from Palatine. This meet went to Palatine (82), followed by Barrington (38%) and McHenry (26%). Koch was the only first place winner for McHenry as he won the low hurdles event with a time of 20:5. Palatine also walked off with the Fresh-Soph meet, but McHenry's promising younger boys took second.

Prices Adults 85c -- Child. 35c SOON 'SON OF FLUBBER" The 19th HOLE BY GEORGE DIAMOND The forsythias are in bloom and the world is getting green again. It's golf time! What plans have YOU made for your golfing this season? If you love golf, if you would enjoy playing on one of America's finest courses with other good sportsmen, if you dislike waiting in line to get on a course, you should apply for one of the few remaining memberships in the George Diamond Country Club. This private club, a showplace of Mid-America, is adjacent to the George Diamond Charcoal Broiled Steak House that is open to the public all year round at Route 59 and Grass Lake Road in Antioch. I've redesigned this 6,400-yard golf course to make it one of tlie sportiest in the nation. Strategically-placed sand traps, bunkers, water holes and dog legs offer a real challenge. The fairways are in fine shape and the greens are like velvet. Well-drained, the course is in condition to play immediately after a heavy rain. Golf pros who have played the George Diamond Country Club course call it "championship calibre." A team from the Chicago Golf District Assn. had high praise and a high ratiijg for the course. Comfortable locker rooms have a special feature . . . steam baths. After a full day of golf there is no greater luxury than a sauna hath. You get so full of vigor again you want to dance all night in the (Jo-Go-Go Room that is part of the open-to-the-puhlie George Diamond Chareoal Broiled Steak House. There is no minimum or cover charge in the Go-Go-Go Room and we even absorb the excise tax. Only a few country club memberships are available so act now. When 150 have joined I will close the membership because I know that golf is no fun when a course is overcrowded. Here's a rundown on what membership will cost you. A $200 initiation fee is payable only the first year. Annual dues are $300 a year, plus a nominal federal tax. The next time you are in the George Diamond Charcoal Broiled Steak House for a mouth-watering dinner -- the same No. 1 quality food served at 512 S. Wabash and 1183 S. Wabash in Chicago and in our Palm Springs (Calif.) steak house -- ask the hostess to give you a brochure with full details about the private country club . . .or call 395-0999. (Watch for this column next week when Mr. Diamond, president of the George Diamond Charcoal Broiled Steak House that is open to the public, tells you about the "extras" that go with membership Li the private George Diamond Coun- Uy Ciuij.). Boating with Bowman By Hank Bowman Have you ever helmed your boat under a bridge and seen suspension lines, girders or bridge supports crowded with birds perched wing to wing? Maybe you figured they were sitting there waiting to find out how the fishing was. The weather savvy boatman knows what gives with the birds. If you don't, here are some clues that'll help you to be your own weather prophet. Birds perch oh wire, tree limbs or any randy resting spot when bad weather is approaching. They also fly lower, work their wings harder than usual just before a down poor or a big blow. This is no old wives' tale, but fact, and it is easily explained. Low pressure air which precedes bad weathef makes it hard for birds to fly. Clouds are handy guides. High clouds traveling restlessly across the sky in the opposite direction of lower hanging clouds indicate unsettled weather. Fleecy light textured clouds like spun cotton candy are signs of fine weather. These are accompanied by modest breezes. Beware of those dark oily looking cloud formations for they foretell rain. High hung clouds aren't likely to soak you down, no matter how grim they may appear. But when they start coasting down, better break out your foul weather McHENRY THEATRE 11204 N.

So even if you don't think you need a compass aboard, better know which way you're heading if you want to duck a shower. Lightning flashing or . dark clouds gathering west or northwest ot your heading will mean you are helming right into a storm. If an electrical disturbance is east or south of the direction your boat is moving, ten to one you will avoid the storm.
