U •fx.*'* Thursday* Dscombdr 31*1964 jfaf £aSfJtmjct£AJu SO I Hi Good old Santa was with us in all his color and has returned to his work shop to get ready for next year. Guess that is what the rest of us must do. But, next year will be different! We have resolved to be way ahead with our work, have our shopping done early, pick out clever gifts and design our own cards. Yep. As we say every year at this time -- next year will be different. Just took a look at a Family Almanac calendar from "Torchy" Krause. Think we may find this one interesting. On the first page we find "How To Relax". Turned over a couple of more pages and found -- "Pounds Can Be Shed -- Permanently." The experts have done it again. They told us the Cleveland .Browns were doomed in their meeting with the Colts of Baltimore. So, what happens? The Colts are broken to the tune of 27 to 0. Now come the bowl games and so many of them that you need a chart to know who's who. After the New Year's Eve punch bowl you take 'em as they come. The Knights of Columbus basketball tournament brought out some good basketball last weekend. This popular event will end next Sunday. With interruptions, this column has been hard to get fbff the ground so we are especially thankful for a call from Anna Frisby. Anna had a Christmas greeting from P. J. Dorr, who coached football at McHenry High way back in the days when the Landmark school housed both grade school and high school students. Coach Dorr was a guest of honor last Septembe>*at Wisconsin State University at Whitewater as the new Memorial Stadium was dedicated. The squad of 1914 was the first and only conference winner according to our information^ Four out of five survivors of that team were present. If our memory is correct, Phil Dorr, Dr. Aicher, Dr. Froehlich and Charlie Reihansperger roomed in the home of Grandma and Anna Frisby and enjoyed some great home cooking. That home is now owned by Mrs. John R. Justen at the corner of John and Fourth Streets. Dorr was known as a tough cookie, but was loved and respected by all. He had a lot on the ball. Thanks, Anna, for calling. Now that we have gone down memory trail, it is time to look forward to 1965. We sincerely hope your New Year will be happy.

WARRIORS DEFEAT MOUNDERS; LOSE MUNDELEIN The McHenry Warriors thumped the Mt. Morris Mounders in the first round of the Rockford classic at Boylan high school last Monday afternoon by a score of 86-67.

K' nutcnce led the attuc 'villi 23 points, followed by ivich Smith with 19. The Orungc and Black were trounced last night (Tuesday) by Mundelein 81-60. The Warriors were never in the game as the Mustangs led 16-10 at the quarter and by a whooping 43-16 count at the half. The Warriors looked so poor that the fans could hardly believe it was the same club that looked so good against Mt. Morris. Bentz and Laurence got into foul trouble very early in the game which hampered the T^Varrior attack significantly. Dave Lohrke led the Mustangs with 24 points. Gary Lockwood tossed in 13 for the Warriors.

Two free throws by Marty Zupan, junior guard, with four seconds left in the game clinched the victory for the Blue Devils. It was the second straight one point loss, by the identical score, for the Orange and Black, with four seconds to go. The other occurred at Woodstock one week ago. The Warriors trailed the Northwest Conference club by a 16-6 score at the fcnd of the first quarter but managed to close the gap with a fine second stanza effort. The score at half time was 34-31, with rren on top. Spirited Rally yron Bentz and Ken Laurence led a spirited Warrior rally in the final period after the Warriors had trailed by as much as ten points in the third quarter. A tip by Laurence with 1:40 left ran the count to 67-66 Warren, and another Laurence two pointer gave the Warriors the lead 68-67. With :51 seconds remaining the Warriors gave up the ball on a traveling violation but secured possession after a missed shot. With :11 seconds left the Warriors called a time out but in putting the ball in play the pass went astray and was picked up by Zupan who was fouled. Bill Robbins led the Blue Devil attack with 20 points, and the 6'6" junior did a fine job on the boards. The Warriors had balanced scoring with Bentz and Rich Smith garnering 17 apiece and Laurence getting 16. Beat Warhawks In the game to decide third place the Warriors were conquerors of the North Chicago Warhawks for the second time this season. The score was 53-45. After a 10-10 standoff in the first quarter the Warriors jumped to a 18-17 lead midway in the period on a jumper by Soda and the Warriors were never headed. Their half time margin was 24-19. Myron Bentz, 6'4" senior center for the Warriors played a fine game, was a strong rebounder and tallied 15 points. Soda had 11 and Wayne Hiller 9. The Warhawks were led by Dave Brogan and Lamar Woods, each with 10 points. NEW PROGRAM SCHEDULE FOR WINTER QUARTER immm TOMASELLOS Wednesday Nite Crawlers-- S. Koenigseder 140-176-148- 464; D.

"Robert Clove "1509 Beach Road "McHenry" I SWAPPED m A NEW YEAR 1965 This is the time of year when we should all add up our assets and count our blessings. Some of these are spelled 'a$$et$" and some are spelled 'assets'. The 'a$$et$', of course, keep a roof over our he^ds but the other 'assets' of living in a free society and being able to seek happiness in our own way make life under that roof worthwhile. This is the time of year for pledges. We're going to play safe by sticking to the ones we've made throughout the year. That is, we promise to sell used cars as good as honest reconditioning can make them at the lowest possible price and to spaire no effort to help you get the maximum satisfaction out of your new car. There are a few operators in our business who maintain that the honest approach in advertising doesn't pay. The only technique that works is to outsmart the public with gimmicks they say, and in so operating they encourage the public to attempt to outsmart the dealer. We're still going to go on disagreeing with that thinking. We'd like to thank our many cutomers for the confidence they have shown in us by buying their car from us and letting us service it. We'll continue to try to deserve that confidence. While some parts of our country may have temporary economic distress, the overall picture and future forecasts are very bright. We wish a Happy New Year to you and yours. i BUSS FOEB SALES 3938 W. Main Street
