• Section One -- Page Four THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, August 27, 1964 SO I HEAR... ' Every place we go somebody has something to say to us about the White Sox. Somehow, they have gathered that we are a Sox fan. Now, ho\y in the world could they ever guess? When the Sox clobbered the Yankees four straight, Ed Doyle called us "lucky". Herb Reihansperger spoke of the "gift runs." With our "power", we need runs of any old kind. 0 A salesman came in to sell us something and led off by letting us know he was a Yankee fan. Boy, he was off to a great start! We were unfortunate enough to meet Wally Smith in Johnsburg after the Baltimore belters knocked us off Saturday in a heart-breaker. Carol Miller, of Bolger's Drug Store, was another who had no kind words for our Sox. Another Cub fan, a hardy lot. You may note the terms "we" and "us" in reference to the Sox. That came from recently reading some gems written by a niece, Louise Miller, when she was a teen-ager-- dreaming of being a big time sports writer. Have even heard from some young children who have sly remarks for us about the lucky Sox. We suspect their parents of having a gay old time at our expense. Evert an old Sox fan like Walt Freund wonders what keepy 'em up there. All we can say is that our wonder boys are breathing down the necks of the leaders. And, how are your boys doing over there in the other league? w. Don Wattles and John R. "Schmitt are two who stick with Sis. .Don was pleased tjtiat we *let our readers know where he 'Stands. Fred Meyer came out of the pushes when his beloved Yankees beat Boston 8 to 0. All jokes aside, let's not ••count those Yankees out of the !jrace. They have no more -games with the 1-2 tedms. If "Mickey Mantle can stay in the ^jineup for half of their rer »maining games, look out! « Listening to the Democratic /convention gives us amusement "fas Ty interviewers attempt to ..put words in the mouths of "their victims. Most of /those Reasoned veterans are too Sharp •<o be trapped. And now a Goldwater booster reminds us that we predicted the Democratic convention "fyould be like a Sunday school Ipicnic compared to the Republican convention. Maybe tthis isn't our year, ® The Johnsburg Tigers are vjnaking. a fine showing in the "Semi-pro tournament at Genoa, 311. This week-end will tell *the story as the men have now *been separated from the boys. 'See separate story on this page. ^ On Friday, a little boy went Jto the bank and withdrew 10 -cents from his savings account. ^Pn the next Monday he returned and deposited the dime "again. "Well. I see you didn't spend •<your money," said the teller. "No," the boy replied. "But Za fellow likes to have a little **>n hand over the weekend."
