' McHenry Faculty Men Edge Texas Cowgirls 56-55 By Bert Hagemann Liast Saturday night in the McHenry gym, the high school faculty men edged the Texas Cow Girls in the waning seconds of an eventful basketball game, 56-55. The Cowgirls, playing under the local sponsorship of the Varsity M club, provided a Cast paced, enjoyable show for the assembled crowd. Profits for the game went to M club, sponsored by Bud No. 2 Murray. The Cowgirls provided entertainment through their different antics, and some highlights of the game are as follows. Paul Palmeter was roped and hog tied, and while prone on the floor, was trampled on by teammates Bill Hutchinson and Bill Blankenhorn, who wanted to take some shots while standing on Paul's adequate back side. Chuck Cuda was caught on numerous occasions committing flagrant fouls and taking trick shots. I had the distinction of trying to catch their dribbling ace at mid court, while Bill Blankenhorn was committing a pinching foul in the backcourt. The other faculty played it up big, as the twelve members of the team substituted freely in order to make the jaunts up and down the length of the court. All in all, it was an enjoyable evening'S entertainment for all who stiowed up and for those who participated. BOX SCORE. COWGIRLS - 55 FG FT PF TP K. Miller 0 0 1 0 L. Thompson 4 1 1 9 V.

Rust also revealed negotiations are almost complete for a special effects artistic lighting show to be located in the present Iron Mine^ "The designer got the idea for this unusual attraction while visiting an art exhibit. The lighting show" has won acclaim at many fairs across the country," Rust said. "Again, the concessionaires will make permanent improvements and installations at their own expense," he added. • * * Transition Help Under the Defense Department's "Project Transition" program, up to 500,000 disadvantaged servicemen will receive special education and instruction to make them employable when they return to private life.
