Now comes basketball and wrestling. That should keep fans fanning through the winter months. Bj: Karl Wi Our buzzer buzzed and our gal, Marge, said, "Dr. Wells and his wife are here to see you." That got us out of our ^n a hurry. you. chairs Dr. Glen Wells and his wife (a real pleasant lady) were back to the eld home town from California. It brightened our day to think., they took time from a crowded schedule to say hello. Time was way too short. There are so many subjects we like to discuss when a real native comes back to McHenry. Glen mentioned how pleased he was that he met so many people from way back when. He mentioned Frank Gans and Avis, Leo Heimer, Bob Weber and Gerald Carey, and his list was only started. We were thinking of Glen's dad, our family doctor, and how he gave us those same pink pills no matter what our childhood ailment. Doctors' didn't have the wonder drugs in those days, but somehow pulled us through each illness in good shape. Glen reported that he sees Richard B. "Dick" Walsh often and mentioned Dick's son, who has a responsible position with the Dodger baseball club. Some of our greatest encouragement came from Dick when 'we were young. Old Timers will remember his baseball teams and how nobody could use a fungo bat with his skill. Best of all - a copy of Ye Olde Plaindealer still goes on its way to Dr. Glen Wells out Caljfornia way each week. Now, what's cookin'? Come Thursday night of this week you will want to se4 those fantastic Harlem Satellites do tricks with a basketball in the MCHS game. You are in for a barrel of laughs. Just to get you up to date, there are no more clerks of election. They are all judges. We hate to think late voters will have to carry pencil sharpeners so why not turn on your charm and ask for a fresh pencil. That will trump somebody's ace. The Warriors did it! A victory for the Hargis boys over the Tigers at Crystal Lake in the last game of the football season last Saturday was just what the doctor ordered. Nice going, team and coaches, cheerleaders, band, managers and all. Speaking of doctors, it's a good time to say a good word for the local doctors who took turns totin' their little medicine bags down to the field each game. It is verl' comforting to know they are present fn case of injutfy. We are going to miss the football games and ocir climb to the press coop for home Karnes. Believe it or not Mr. Ripley.

"Now that I got you across safely, that's my Boy Scout deed for the day," said George as he ambled along. Of all the worthless advertising appearing these days are the political candidates pictures and ads tacked on posts, fences and buildings. Any conscientious voter $wiU find other ways to learn more about the applicants - not pick them by the number of ads around the countryside. And lots of these posts have instructions on them "POST NO BILLS." After the elections, each candidate should be required to take his ad - let's keep thisjfeountry beautiful. Why is it? Every time a political candidate appears in a town, all his party members are there to hear him. He has their votes anyway. Will the public ever wake up to the uselessness of this endeavor. These meetings are meant to spread the party ideas, INSTEAD they should be attended by members of the opposite party -- then watch the conversions. In our precinct - by afternoon the pencils in the voting booths are either worn down so far or broken off. We pay for the clerks there. They should take care of this. Playing cards is more fun. "GRANDMA" By gosli\ "Grandma", your letter doesn't sound like the jolly little /notes you sent to us preykmsly. Politics can get yob down when the mud starts flying. We must agree that the ones who put up the posters should take them down. It strikes us funny to see a poster a year after a candidate has been defeated. - "Vote for Joe Bloke". - unless they mean next time. It is a good idea to hear the opposition party. We attended a Republican meeting last year, by invitation, and they treated us real nice. After one nice gal said she never thought she would see the day when Earl Walsh would attend a Republican meeting, she served us coffee and cookies. We always say anybody who feeds us can't be all bad. Write again, "Grandma". For instance, what do you think of the White Sox? Yours, "S.I.H." '-6 OverTiqers At Crystal Lake With Last Half Comeback In Final Game Of Season By Bert H&gemaan Lat year in China it was the year of the dragon. This year in McHenry football it was the year of the yo-yo. This football team had peaks o& great success, and valleys of deep, dark despair. Ori this cool November afternoon on Metcalf field, the Warriors had a second half of stunning success. Trailing at the half, 6-0, the orange and black went into the dressing room after showing the sparsly scattered fans a first half of dead, uninspired football.

Their drive, however, stalled inside the 10 yard line of Crystal Lake, and from there on out, they were outplayed. During the intermission a fire must have been built under them, for they came out at the beginning of the third quarter and quickly counted a touchdown on a 24 yard run by John Todd. Rich Olesczuk converted and McHenry had a slim 7-6 lead. Wierd Touchdown For the next 20 odd minuies, the Tigers threatened repeatedly to break the game open, throwing passes all over the field. The McHenry defense was up to the test, and finally in the fourth quarter, the Warriors put together another crunching march. John Todd, who gained 125 yards in 24 carries, tallied the second Warrior touchdown on a 27 yard burst around end. Then with only seconds remaining in the game, the wierdest scoring play of the year occurred. McHenry atlemped a field goal in the waning seconds. The ball was partially blocked and a Tiger player picked it up on his own one yard line. He was; hammered by two Warriors and the ball popped loose into the end zone, v^here Dave Fletcher fell on it for the final Warrior score of the day. Although outmanned and smaller, the Tigers put up a scrappy battle, only to be finally worn down by Warrior size and strength. Tom Daugherty, playing his last game in a Warrior uniform, led a defensive line charge which completely smothered the Crystal Lake ground attack. Rich Lossman, another senior, gained 46 yards in 13 carries, mostly into the middle of the Tiger defense. Bob Funk, senior , signal caller, had his finest day of passing this season, and di<) his usual Winter Sports Open Drills For Winter Surely old man winter can't l>e far away, because the roundballers and grapplers have officially started practice. Coach Bill Hutchinson and his wrestlers have started workouts in anticipation of a big season. "Hutch" has returning lettermen at almost every weight, and prospects for another winning season seem bright. North Chicago and Barrington will furnish probably the stiffest opposition for the matmen this season. Meanwhile, up on the hardwood, some of coach Glen Anderson's roundballers have l>egun their drills. With quite H few returning lettermen, pros|>ects seem brighter than last year. Height again will l>e a problem, and the Warriors will have only a few practices before their opening games the weekend before Thanksgiving. N e x t w e e k P l a i n d e a l e r readers will find a complete rundown on prospects and probable conference picks for the coming season.

However, Corcoran added that nurses still are needed on the 4 p.m. to 12 midnight shift, either part-time or full-time. "Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and nurses aides can be used on all three sifts," Corcoran elaborated. "We have been able to staff the day and the night shift in good fashion but can always use more help on those two shifts. The evening shift, however, is the one where we would welcome additional assistance so we can expand to the full-bed capacity." Corcoran expressed appreciation to the public for the help which was issued in August. Recent salary increases approved by the board of directors are reflected in the . pay scale at the hospital. "With the answer to our appeal for help, we have been able to open more beds gradually in keeping with our plan to use the new addition in orderly fashion," he reported. The third floor pediatrics department was opened in early September and this has proved a beneficial service to the public. Looking over the hospital records, Corcoran noted the number of patients under Medicare has gone from a peak load of 55 percent to the present level of 46 per cent. This does not include obstetrics and pediatrics. McHenry hospital has been able to handle the increased workload without serious difficulty. Before Medicaid, about 25 per cent of the patients were in the over-65 category. The hospital has added one person to its office staff to handle the extra paper work required to administer Medicare.
