As to the sparrows, he says we can soon get enough of them, but appreciates the fact that they stay with us the year around. Jeppe made a new feeder and also keeps a place clear on the ground to feed his feathered friends. Also tells us he has us beat with two pheasants, red wing blackbirds, a yellow bird, no squirrels but lots of bold rabbits. We had a cardinal show up this week, Jeppe, so rushed right out with some sunflower seed which the squirrels enjoyed very much. We have our fun.

Lady Luck still refuses to smile on the struggling Warriors as they dropped two more decisions this past weekend, one a 64 to 48 victory at the hands of the Blue Streaks of Woodstock, and the other a 61 to 58 heartbreaker to the Mustangs of Mundelein. On Friday night the orange and black played a respectable game against the Blue Streaks, but the 6'4" frontliners of Woodstock were too much for the shorter Warriors to handle. Once again, the turnover bugabdo struck McHenry, and the inability to get off good shots time after time destroyed the Warriors' chances. McHenry played well enough in the first half, and the orange and black were in contention until big Steve Wilson was turned loose and went on a scoring binge in the second half. The Warriors dropped steadily behind and never could get over the hump, although they got a draw in the statistics battle. The Tri-County's league leaders, of Mundelein came into' Warrior land Saturday night and this quick, fine shooting aggregation jumped off to a 10-0 lead before the Warriors had realized the game had started. However, the Warriors regrouped and stayed within striking distance until the fourth quarter rolled around. Then the fire ignited. Sharked by the hot shooting of Bob Hurckes, the aggressive play of John Reinboldt and Harry Weber, the Warriors closed the gap and tied the score. With the game all tied up, McHenry called time out and set up what thfey hoped would be the winning score. The Warrior effort missed, anJ for the second week in a row the orange and black went into overtime. The Mustangs regained their cool however, and pumped in the reqai' : 1 points for a victory. Sooo, it must wait for another week. The "it" is the VICTORY for which the scrapping Warriors are due.

Old records tell about a ship whose sails were torn off in a storm off Halifax, Nova Scotia, saving itself by putting its cargo of steers into the sea, tying a rope to each, and having them tow the ship to the shore. (The Ariadne, in 1848) By Bert Hagemann The Rolling Warrior express kept right on moving this past Tuesday night as the orange and black crushed a good Elgin squad by a 21-15 margin. The good tidings started right off as Sobacki beat his opponent 6-0 to jump the Warriors ojjt into a 3-0 lead. Guy Hansen followed up with a narrow 6-5'victory, and Justen completely dominated his opponent as he won handily, 8-0. Mike Schlieben suffered the first loss of the night by a 5-2 verdict, 'but dependable Don Voight got the Warriors back into the winning swing with a 5-2 decision.

We talked with him about three weeks ago and he made us feel that he knew us. We aren't sure. Anyhow, he gave us that smile we like so much in visits through the years. He would chuckle when telling us stories of visits our Dad made to John&burg. John Smith was the father of ten children and it is remarkable that nine are still living. He and they must have been put together pretty good. When you get up there to your heavenly reward, John, look up our Dad and go over some of those stories of days gone by. Let's hope our friends in the sunny south are not suffering too much while we enjoy this balmy January in the old home town. Rockne was coaching the Four Horsemen, he devised a beauty of a play which pulled both guards*as well as the center to run interference for the ballcarrier. The chap who was supposed to protect the huge gap in the middle was thj| quarterback, Harry Stuhldreher. "How did it work, Rock?" asked an interested fellow coach to whom the Notre Dame mastermind was explaining the play. "I dunnoV confessed Rockne sadly. "You don't think Stuhldreher was ever silly enough to call the play, do you?" PICKUPS: Doctor to patient: "I've done all I can to get your weight down, Mrs. Jones.-- without any success, I suggest you just learn to be jolly." • " gin, and* then the roof caved in. The Maroons won the next three matchs, and as Tony Wagner was narrowly beaten 2-1 at the 154 weight class, the scoreboard showed McHenry ahead by a slim margin of 15-12. However, in a great show of aggressiveness and good conditioning at the end of his match, Mike Antonicelli rolled up a 6-2 win over his opponent. Undefeated Jim Laursen wrapped things up with a 6-1 victory, and Moose Mueller ended the evening on the short end of a 1-0 score. Mueller lost his match by the slim margin of a penalty, point. However, the Warriors chalked up one more victory in their newest string of successes, so it looks like they are off and rolling again.
