For 10 years Dr. William F. Childers and Dr. George W. Bennett have bred and studies fish hybrids in their search for spprt fishes that will be fast-growing and easily caught and that will not overpopulate ponds and small lakes. In one experiment with these hybrids Drs. Childers and Bennett released eight redear sunfish males and three green sunfish females in a one-acre pond from which they had removed all other fish. Within the next year about 325 largemouth bass were/ added. During the six years eti this experiment fisherjrien caught about 3,800 rejdeargreen sunfish hybrids with'a total weight of more than 800 pounds. In addition, they caught 663 largemouth bass weighing over 400 pounds./ Chemical composition of sea water is almost identical to human blood.

These boys called themselves the "Bums", but were far from being bums to any team that m3t them on the baseball diamond. "Spots" Thurlwell was a big fellow who could throw hard from the mound. Crafty Bill Kreutzer was a southpaw flinger who went on to play minor league ball. This team had a big following, playing for fun -- and to win. That was back in the days when everybody and his brother looked forward to the local ball games on Sunday afternoon. Northern Ulini Bowmen archery club sent four representatives to the Illinois Archery Association convention in Springfield. Mr. and Mrs. Orville Goss© attended the field division, Mrs. Wm, Copley target division and division of the state convention. Of interest is that the delegates voted almost unanimously to keep the Illinois archers on an amateur status. Winnings may have no monetary value being trophy or medal only. The World Olympic Games will in- ' elude archery for the first time in 1972 and, of course, only amateur arcners will be eligible. The three state archery championship shoots will be held this summer as follows: target in Peoria, field in Springfield and broadhead in Aurora. Further reports of the convention and Slush Shoot will be heard at the monthly Northern Iliini Bowmen meeting Thursday, March 21, 8:30 p.m. held at McHenry Legion.

The dance was successful beyond all expectations. In fact, the ever increasing crowd, caused some of the committee to go on a search around Wonder Lake looking for more chairs and tables to accommodate them. Not only wete there the usual green decorations with leprechauns, banners, etc., there was also "Henry" the Mustang's mascot who attends all their affairs , all dressed up in his green shirt and socks and sporting a new bow tie and there was also a new addition named "Charlie" - a tall handsome model wearing the Mustangs brand new uniform of Kelly green shirt with white collar, white shorts with green side stripes and green and white socks. Of course he carrieu uie ever present soccer ball under his arm. This affair was a joint effort by all the Mustangs and their Fan Club and each one did his assignment well. Team spirit is what counts and they proved it by holding two very successful social affairs in the past five months and by making their te?.m The Must?.pp,s- verv well known all over northern Illinois. It is a team to be proud of according to their president and coach, Leo Hartog. Margaret Thomas and her committee and all members of the Fan Club, did a fine job of coordinating all the phases of the dance which included gathering prizes, decorating, preparing and serving all the food and seeing that everyone had a good time. Members of this committee included Sharon Taylor, Eva Smith, Jean Lees, Melen Black, Cathy Dockery, Ronnie Perry, Mary Lou Har- , tog and many others who help- ' ed along the way. This is the same group who will be out at every game when the season starts - cheering the Mustangs to bigger and better victories. The season opens in April.

The Foley Lumber Co., as well as the Foley family and name, has made quite a mark in the history of east-central Illinois. It was Moses Franhen Foley, Bert's grandfather, who found Parish, Illinois to his liking in 1887 and started the circle sawmill which eventually became the Foley Lumber Co. which has been operating 1968 McHENRY HIGH SCHOOL VARSITY, SOPHOMORE AND FRESHMEN TRACK SCHEDULE, S,V. . .Monday, April 8, Round Lk. and Lk.

In those days, the cutting of wagon stock was the main business . Today, the Foley team of brothers, Albert C. and Philip O., together with the third generation sons, Philip S. and Thomas A., serves a diversified wood products field, mainly specialized woods for manual training classes, which spreads through two-thirds of the 50 United States and even into far corners of the world. Bert remembers his first experience as a timber buyer when only 12 years old. He paid $79 each for 14 trees about five miles south of Paris and made enough money to get the bicycle he so badly wanted. Perhaps it was this initial transaction that really started him on his forestry career which led to a degree from the University of Michigan, the expansion and establishment of one of the first band mills in the state, the creation of the Foley Memorial Forest and an active leadership and participation in forestry and forest industry matters at all levels. "It is only fitting that Moses Foley's grandson, "Bert", agairrbe a pioneer and lead the way ,jn the annual licensing and banding of Illinois timber buyers in accordance with the receiiuy- pci^ocu should do much to improve the status and caliber of this relatively small but yet significant segment of Illinois industry," Director Lodge said. THREE SMASHES INVESTIGATED BY McHENRY POLICE Three accidents occurred in the city in recent days, handled by McHenry police officers.' Cynthia T. Denny of Crystal Lake was driving east on Main street and stopped at the intersection for traffic to clear when she felt the impact of another car driven by Herbert J.
