A fifteen man squad has been working out daily at the lake front recreation gym in Crystal Lake preparing to initiate the new school's first venture into intercollegiate athletics. Heading the list of prospects are several boys from McHenry County. Crystal Lake boys include Cecil Bradstreet 5'8". guard, Kent Johnson, 5'10" - guard, Rich Leight 6' 1" forward and Henry Zoellick 5'9" guard. Richmond contributes 2 boys to the squad in the form of Larry Fiedler 6*2" center and 5'10" guard Joe Caparros. Pat Camasta 6* guard from McHenry, and Marc Woodbury 6'2#' forward froim Hebron help balance the squad. Ed Jasperson 6*9" center hails from Lake Zurich, Ron Taylor 6'1" forward and Vietnam veteran played his high school ball at Grant in Fox Lake. Mike Scornavaco diminutive 5*6" guard was a regular at Highland Park, while Jim Mach 6*2" forward played at Maine West and Rich Westbrook 6" forward comes from Round Lake. Henry Lamkin, outstanding 6'5" forward moved to Crystal Lake from Menominee, Wis., where he received some ' all-state mention. Ed Liljekuist 6*2" forward comes to the junior college from Northwestern Military Academy. As can be seen from the enclosed schedule, the "Fighting Scots" will be a nomadic tribe as they play their 8 "home" games in various gyms throughout McHenry county. No one can claim the McHenry clan have a home court advantage in any of their 20 games scheduled. First test for the new college will come on Wednesday, Nov. 20, when they travel to Freeport to take on Highland Community college. The next night they travel to Chicago to engage Cran Junior college. The "Scots" will play their first "home' * game at Harvard when they take on Aurora College's junior varsity on Saturday Nov. 23. The game will start at 7:30 p.m. The public is invited to attend. Admission is free to all MCC students upon presentation of their identification cards.' 21 Tues. Elgin 25 Sat. Kankakee 30 Thurs.

By Bert Hagemann The tenacious Bulldogs of Grant High School held on Friday night to edge the scrappy Warriors in the season debut for both squads. The orange and black, playing for the first time in the newly dedicated gym, did not have the offensive firepower to cope with the balanced attack thrown up by the defense minded Grant fivesome. Both coaches experimented freely with personnel throughout the game, but as in most of last year's defeats, the Warriors could not muster a consistent scoring threat to thwart their opponents offensive trys. The game was actually a very even affair throughout the evening except for a five minute spurt in the fourth quarter.

Tournament at Barrington game in the fourth stanza, but then went a full five minutes without garnering a single point. This spelled loss number one for McHenry as the Bulldogs slowly built up a lead which McHenry could not chop down. When the Warriors went into a press with three minutes remaining, the pace of the game picked up remarkably, and we closed the gap rapidly, but too late, and with too little. Mark Camasta led the Warrior scoring with 19 points, gained on twisting, squirming drives to the basket, but lack of consistency in the front line, measured against a balanced scoring attack by the opposition was just too much to overcome. Coach Ken Ludwig will have to solve the problem of ragged • floor play and erratic shooting 'ifrthe Warriors "are to overcome the Sequoias of Arrtioch 1 this weekend. As usual, the Sequoits will be tough, and with a fine sophomore squad, these should be two interesting games to watch. If some of the walking wounded Warriors are more physically sound this week, perhaps the first victory in a long, long spell will be forthcoming. Hope you can make the ball game, we'll look for you there.

All three were rugged performers throughout the season. Paul Hornung, famous Notre Dame and Green Bay Packer star will be the MC. at a banquet Thursday, Dec. 12 in the International Room at the Conrad Hilton hotel in Chicago honoring the All-Area players. Nice honor, fellows. Without too much trouble we found our way into the new gym at West Campus Friday night for the^first basketball game of the season. It was a close game for awhile, then the Grant team pulled away with steady ball control. The Warriors bounced back in the fourth quarter to bring about a respectable score in losing 58-52. Since this was the first game of the season with limited practice, we are withholding our opinion on the prospects for the season. We will say there is much work to be done. I HEAR Sports EditorU ed if kids still have baskets in their back yards for off season shootinjg. Our thoughts went back again to the days when the Hesters^ resided a block away from us and we could hear the bounce of the ball in good and bad weather. Those boys could drop 'em in. As we entered the seating ar rea, Mrs. Frank Hromec inquired, "Don't the games all look alike to you after all those years?" , Some things are the same each year. Coaches. show the same strain. (But, a doctor once urged us to let loose and yell to avoid ulcers). We also note that player s sti 11 try to guard from behind and get the inevitable, foul. the fault of a player's not coming out to meet the pass. Gary Fairchild again showed that he can jump high to gather; in rebounds. The Grant boys played smart| against our man to man defense; waiting for one of our players' to dash forth for an interception try then getting a man clear. , W6 lost, but our boys gave Grant fits in the last quarter with a dash that fell short when shooting was not sharp enough to turn the trick. On Saturday night of this week our Varsity and Sophs will travel to Antioch for another nonconference game. A week of practice should grind off some of the rough edges. We would like to see a Warrior victory in this one. It could be just what the doctor ordered. Northern. IRlUiiif 4"* ^ j As Joe May remarked at the start of the game, "This looks like another whistle tootin' affair". That is another similarity of games in recent years. Players look younger each year. We'll have to figure that one out. Hustle we had. Marksmanship we hadn't And we wonder- Mark Camasta was a fireball on the floor, going at full steam all the way. Some of his passes went astray but that should straighten out. Sometimes that We can be proud of bur new gym. It puts us in. very favorable comparison with other schools we will be visiting. It is a far cry from the Landmark gym in which We played. When the gym was converted into a convocation hall, our games had to move outside to the tennis courts covered with fine white stone. But, that's ancient history.

Report by the nominating committee, Frank Borowski, Lee Kiltz and Chaignan, Betty Houser, will be heard plus nominations from the floor for 1969 officers. The public is invited to this meeting as it is usually a fun get-together filled with many ^ bowhunting yarns and lore. There will b6 no heavy eyes and yawns from early risers or from a day in the woods, unless from bird hunters as ttte deer bowhunting season is clbsed in both Illinois and Wisconsin. Illinois will reopen on the 25th, but Wisconsin bowhuntefs have to wait to take to the woods until December. x Northern Illini Bowmen's latest successful big gamqs bowhunter is Cal Houser of McHenry. Cal put on a very successful Club hunt in Waushara county, Wisconsin, camping in October. Eighteen hunters, some with their families and even the family dog, had a good time which deemed the hunt a success, even tho feVv deer were seen and only two shots taken the whole weekend. Cal himself did not see a deer -- but the following weekend he went up to Necedah and bagged a buck. Earl Bird of Wauconda, during a week's hunt in his former home territory of Vermbnt, bagged a Vermont doe. Note Correction In Quail Season The Department of Conservation of Illinois, has sent the following correction: EDITORS: In our release 15- 25**68 dated November 8 and concerning the quail season, will you please correct the fourth paragraph to read as follows: Limits are: quail - 8 per day, 16 in possession; cock pheasant - 2 per day, 4 in possession; partridge - 2 per day, 4 in possession; rabbits - 5 per day, 10 in possession. Opening day possession limits are the same as the daily kill limits. Hie last sentence in this paragraph erroneously read: "Opening day possession limits ai;e the same". , - THANK - YOU. Ifs a Snap!
