Section One --- Page Four THE McHENRY pLAINDEALER Thursday .August 19, 1965 so I hear S by EARL WALSH When Betty .Clanc asked us to put a note in this corner about the bowling girts, it struck us 'that summer must be on the way oat. Betty wants you girls in the C.D. ofA. Bowling League to know that a league meeting and cookout will be held at the Julia Kralowetz residence next Monday, August 23, at 6:30 P.M. Steaks and conversation -- Wow! Don Wattles says he is with us when we say we do not like football in August. Nor do We like baseball in April. It was only last Thursday when we went to see Gus Moritz. He had been ill, but was sharp in our conversation about baseball. On Tuesday we heard that Gus had passed away. We lost a friend who had shown us kindness and a friendly hand many times. We had fully intended to go back to see him again real soon. Seems that most of us should ask ourselves if some of the effort we put forth for the youth groups should not be directed toward our older citizens. Just taking a few minutes to visit older people makes them feel much happier. And it is good for something within ourselves -- Just cleaning our sports folder and ran into a misplaced note that came in the mail soon after we saw the Cubs beat the Mots in a doableheader. A headline on the Cubs was clipped out and enclosed. So was a box score in which Cleveland beat the Sox 4-2 the same day as the glorious victory over the Mets. Here's how the note read: "I thought you'd enjoy these!! At least you saw a major league game! A Spy" The trouble with our Sox this year is not only the fact that they can't get to first base, but also in having too many first basemen. "Moose" Skowran is doing just fine, thank you. McCraw plays first in late innings as a defensive move. He also plays the outfield where he has been known to zig when he is supposed to zag. Some say Cater is a natural first baseman, but does quite well in the space smartly referred to as the outer garden. J. C. Martin looked at home playing first base so they made him into a catcher. The rules allow only one man playing the sack at a time. Gary Peters started baseball as a first baseman. Somebody made a pitcher out of him and he was plenty sharp for a couple of years. The way he pitches this year, he looks like a great prospect for first base. This could go on and on. Our own private opinion now made public is that Pete Ward would be much better on first than third. The Sox have a great third baseman named Buford playing second base. Anybody need a first baseman in exchange for a slugging outfielder? Johnsburg Tigers Lose To All-Stars The McHenry County League Allstars beat the Johnsburg Tigers 1-0 in a rain shortened game. The Stars scored their run on a single by Gary Rudsinski, a Johnsburg throwing error and Bill Funk's run scoring single. Although this was the first run scored by the Allstars in three years against the Tigers, they have yet to score an earned run against them. The Tigers had scoring opportunities in the 2nd and 4th innings but failed to cash in on them. * The winning pitcher for the Stars was Gary Rudsinski while Ted Freurid took the loss for the Tigers. Friday night the Tigers will travel to Elgin to play the Noonhours. The game starts at. 7:30. On Sunday, Johnsburg will have an old timers game which will start at 1:30 ; on Johnsburg's diamond.

Modified Stock G;ir Driver Duane Harris of McHenry. who i s p r o b a b l y o n l y t h r e e w e e k s away from being officially declared the 1965 Modified Driver Champion of the Kenosha County Speedway in Welmot, Wisconsin, is shown as he is 'already starting to receive gifts from his fans during a recent Saturday night race in Wilmot. Harris has won three 25 lap feature races so far this year. That's only one more than any of the other drivers but hi< other finishes have been good enough to put him into the top in point standings for the last several weeks. He is now 51 points ahead of second place man, Jim Lawrance of Bristol. If Harris succeeds in winning j the driving title, he will be the first Illinois Driver Champion in j 14 years at the Kenosha County Speedway. Among the awards for the driving title this year will be a 1965 Plymouth Fury 111. Like other past Champions at the track, Harris expects to go on into National Model Stock Car competition and if his ability is any indication of the success he will have, the Kenosha Speedway could be responsible f o r g r a d u a t i n g i t ' s S e c o n d Champion on to National Honors. Only three more races remain on the 1965 schedule and each race will be topped off by extra lap events. Sat. night, Aug. 21 there will be a 50 lap feature and the following Sat. night the distance will be for 75 laps. The final night, the Championship race, will be for 100 laps and in addition to the title Harris will be trying for the major share .of the $100 lap prize money paid at the rate of $10 per each lap led. McHenry Country Club News Some smart guy wrote that we should tackle the hardest job of the day the first thing in the morning. We do. We find nothing harder than getting out of bed. Rudy Bryant recently visited the Nelson Davis office displaying a 13 1/4 inch long cucumber that weighed 2 lbs. 6 3/4 oz. It measured 8 3 4 inches in circumference. He grew it in his garden.

Fans interested in catching a preseason look at the Warriors are invited to watch the practices at McCracken field which begin Aug. 25. Last year's Warrior team took second in conference play with a 5 jvin, two tie, one loss record. Nine offensive starters of that team were^graduated so the team will be built around ten returning lettermen, many from the junior class. The squad will be lighter than in previous years, but should show more speed than the other squads. The following ,boys will play an important part in the Warrior's season: Rich Soda, 6', 170 lbs., plays both quarterback and halfback. Rich could be the most outstanding halfback in the Chicago area. He has all the desire in the world and the ability to go with it. Rich Albright. Sr. 5-10 and 160 lbs. Defensive H.B. This boy did an outstanding job as a junior and could see some action at an end this year. Hal Eurich. Sr. 5-9, 165 lbs. Played regular defensive L.

Played as a reserve F.B. in 64- could make the defensive team in 65. George Hauser. Sr. 5-9, 160 lbs. Defensive corner L.B. last year and did a terrific job.
