PG. 6, - PLAINDEALER-WED., OCT., 2, 1968 Crystal Lake Tig Warrior Grid Tea 23-13 By Bert Hagemann Once again this week the will to win was very present in the Warrior scheme of things, but the finesse wasn't as McHenry dropped a 23-13 decision to the Crystal Lake Tigers. This bright autumn afternoon was filled with excitement and some football oddities. Crystal Lake struck paydirt first in the initial stanza, counting a t.d. On a 12 yard scoring pass from Nystrom to Johnson after the orange and black had coughed up the ball on a fumble deep in their own territory. However, the Warrior defense held the Tigers for the rest of the half on the basis of three interceptions, and late in the second quarter, the Warriors ended a season scoring drought on a 7 yard run by Ted Jost. The missed kick sent McHenry>intothe locker room at half behind 7-6, but indications were that the game was swinging our way. After holding down the Tigers after the kick-off, McHenry initiated a march down deep into their opponents territory, only to have the whole drive turn sour as a Warrior pitch-out on the Tiger 15 was plucked off by the right linebacker and run back for an 85 yard touchdown score. This was only the beginning of what was to be a ludicrous quarter of football. The third stanza saw 6 interceptions, 4 by McHenry and 2 by Crystal Lake, along with a Warrior fumble. It looked like neither team wanted to move the ball offensively as both squads traded mistakes with fantastic rapidity. The Tigers counted another touchdown on a one yard sneak by their giant quarterback, Nystrom, but the, scrappy Warriors fought back to narrow the gap to 20-13 on a" 28 yards scoring pass from Reinboldt to Steve George midway through the fourth quarter. However, the Tigers put it away with a field goal by Nystrom with -just a couple of minutes remaining to win their 1968 Homecoming game. Actually the whole game hinged on the muffed pitchout in the third quarter, as the Warriors could have hit pay dirt and gone ahead at this juncture. As it was however, the Tigers gained the momentum, and it spelled curtains for the still winless McHenry contingent. Don Reinboldt managed to complete 13passes, in 33 attempts, although his pass blocking at times resembled a sieve throughout much of Ll. Gary Vyeltal Leads Team To Ck •P TOMASELLCS THURS.

Vycital, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Vycital, led Wright-Patter son ADB's slow-pitch team to the championship in the Air Force Logistics Command Slow -Pitch Softball Tournament at Dayton, Ohio. The Kittyhawks won the three-day tournament against Robins AFB and Kelly AFB to claim the title for the second year. Vycital, player-manager of the Kittyhawks, pitched two of the three straight victories the Kittyhawks needed to clinch the AFLC ti^le. Vycital was asked to take the position of manager of the Kitty hawks in late July. It is to his credit that he was able to select and mold a winning combination out of the military personnel at WPAFB in only six weeks. The Kittyhawks finished out their season with a 13-8 record. They then proceeded to storm the scoring columns in the AFLC tournament. The Kittyhawks dominated the choices tothe Ail-Star team with seven men picked for the tenman team. Vycital was selected as the Ail-Star AFLC pitcher. Lt. Vycital is assigned to WPAFB as a student at the Air Force Institute of Technology. He is presently maintaining a 3.69 cumulative GPA in a 4.0 system. He will graduate with a masters in Systems Analysis in June of 1969. Vycital graduated from the College of St. Thomas with a B.A. in mathematics in 1967. He received his high school training at Marian Central Catholic high school in Woodstock. Denny Jackson On Bearcat * r p Denny Jackson of McHenry (Marian Central High) will start at flanker back for the University of Cincinnati when the Bearcats meet 10th ranked Houston in the Astrodome on Friday night, Oct. 4. In his first collegiate season, Jackson has earned a first/string offensive job with his excellent pass receiving. Cincinnati battled powerful Texas Tech to a 10-10 tie last week and in that contest Jackson caught five passes good for 40 yards. Denny entered Cincinnati after graduating from Northeastern Oklahoma Junior college. His outstanding pass catching talents will be available to Cincinnati for the 1968 and 1969 seasons. «WoHd*$ mgge»t Scaup Seasons Won't Endanger Other Ducks One Of McHemry'a Finest the afternoon. Defensive laurels must go to the likes of Mike Antonicelli, Don Thurlwell, Gary Fairchild and Phil Schottler. But, once again it was a multitiude of offensive miscues which cost the Warriors a chance for victory number one this season. This Saturday the Warriors will make the short jaunt to Woodstock in a battle for the North Suburban cellar. Let's make the trip over to siq>port a bunch of athletes who perhaps will put everything together this week. CONFERENCE STANDINGS: W L 1. Dundee 2 0 2. Crystal Lake 2 0 3. Barrington 1 1 4.

Woodstock 0 2 Duck Hunt" h Year-Mound Thing Most waterfowl hunters who put their shotguns away for the year along in December aren't aware that the "world's biggest' duck hunt" is a year-round thing. Before any hunter gets excited about joining this "hunt'% let's explain that the "hunt" is work, not recreation; that the "hunters" observe and even handle the ducks and geese but don't shoot them; and that the weaponry includes cannon nets, aircraft, voice recorders and sophisticated computers . . . but no shotguns. The "world's biggest duck hunt" never ends. It spans the continent from coast to coast and from the Artie tundra tothe Banana Republics. It is conducted by hundreds of highly trained professional waterfowl managers from three nations. On its success hinges the future of North America's waterfowl resource and the sport of waterfowling. By any standard, the effort to keep tabs on the continent's migratory waterfowl population ranks as the most intensive and comprehensive wildlife survey in the world. Shooting pressure on other ducks will be minimal during this foil and winter's special scaup hunting seasons in specific areas of the Central and Mississippi Flyways. That reassurance was given today by John S. Gottschalk, director of the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife, Department of the Interior. The special seasons were announced by Interior in August. "Areas selected for the special seasons are populated by a high preponderance of scaup; consequently there is only slight danger that other species will be shot," Dr. Gottschalk said. The director added that in most areas, the special seasons are\replacing last year's bonus arrangements when two additional scaup were allowed inthe daily bag limit during the regular waterfowl season. "We think the extra scaup shooting should be done separately to protect other species," Dr. Gottschalk said. "Scaup hunting areas have been selected carefully to avoid the problem we had during recent special teal seasons when nearly half the hunters fired at other species when presented the opportunity. ' "Scaup normally are lightly hunted, and we believe that the sportsmen wishing to take advantage of this extra recreational opportunity should be able to do so when it will not harm other species," the federal 'wildlife chief said. v States in the midwest with bc'aup seasons this year include Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin and South Dakota.

USE THE CLASSIFIEDS K was with greatpridethatwe joined a large group of interested citizens last Saturday for the dedication of our new high school. There was a double attraction as the crowd gathered to hear the dedication address delivered by Senator Everett M. Dirksen, known far and wide for his oratory. Patriotism swelled as the crowd arose for a standing ovation when Senator Dirksen stepped to the platform. It wasn't a case of political affiliations. It wasn't a place to cast your ballot. It was a show of respect for a good American holding a high office in our country. We liked it. Sports Editor gymnasium, swimming pool and all facilities took our eye. For those who wanted to investigate, it was learned that this fine building was erected at a per square foot cost of $16.50 -- considered low in this day and age. f Memory took us back to our 12 years in Landmark School. Saw our fifth grade teacher, Fanny Granger Thompson. Couldn't catch up to our fourth grade teacher, Clara Stoffel. Paul Doherty and Ray Page, a couple of early graduates, were there. So were a flock of. others--Hand all seemed pleased wtyh the.educational opportunities offered the youth of our community. AT THE READY ...

The entire program was very fine and the tour of the school most enjoyable. We liked the participation of students with their friendly smiles and ready assistance. And we were proud to follow Mike Morenz, Vice-president of the Student Council, as he calmly and effectively led us through the Pledge of Allegiance. The band and the choral group also gave us a further flavor of student participation in the program. Woodstock Elks Get Ron Santo And Glenn Beckert For Sports Nite Banquet Moving along we met ladies in a different age group -- senior citizens serving refreshments -- service with a smile. The library in the center of the building, the educational plans -- all was of interest, Of course, we were interested also inthe athletic program.

FRESHMEN LOSE TWO FOOTBALL GAMES TO CRYSTAL LAKERS Well, last Saturday morning we watched the Freshmen of "A" squad and "B" squad go down in defeat by scores of 13-0 and 14-0. The Crystal Lake "A" and "B" squad had the height and also the weight behind them. The Freshmen deserve a lot of credit along with their coaches, for being able to contain them to such low scores. We were surprised that this game was solely on the ground with very little passing and amazingly only six penalties in the whole game. The Freshmen "A" squad now has three aces none win, one, tie and poeloss. The "B" squad has two losses "riut have flayed great ball. Next Saturday, 9:00 a.m. - Woodstock at Mc Heqry.
