J , Warriors Routed In Second Half At Zion 48-12 by Bert Hagemann For almost one half last Fri­ day night, it looked like the fighting Warriors were going to pull off the upset of the young 1969 football season against a talented squad from Zion Ben­ ton. Rolling along behind a 12-0 lead, the Warriors had capital­ ized on a Zion miscue and a de­ fense that was hurrying Mike Monaghan into various aerial misadventures to keep Zion away from our goal line. The Warriors had drawn first blood on a march in the first quar­ ter when Tom Janik punched over a touchdown from close in to give us a 6-0 edge. The War­ riors increased this lead on a freakish play in the middle of the; second quarter when a Knaack pass was intercepted deep in Zee-Bee territory. The interceptor promptly fumbled when tackled, and McHenry end­ ed up with a first jand goal on the Zion seven from where Gary Fair child put the ball over on a sweep. However, this was the beginning of the end of the War­ rior honeymoon. Final Score: Zion 48, McHenry 12. We fumbled on our 45 late in the quarter, and the oppor­ tunist ZeeBees quickly turned this into a score after a suc­ cessful screen pass broughtthe ball to our twelve. From there talented halfback Mark Ramey dashed over for the first Zion score, but the Warriors still had the lead and the ball with less than a minute to play. Another Warrior fumble gave Zion the ball at our fifteen, and they promptly cashed this gratuity with a 13 yard scoring pass. This play seemed to be the one that broke the orange and black's back as the big lakesiders turned the contest into a rout in the third quar­ ter. TOO MANY FUMBLES The agonizing third featured more Warrior stone hands as the ball popped away from us repeatedly, and Zion turned ev­ ery miscue into a score. The deluge of offensive errors open­ ed the flood gates for Zion, and the score stood at 33-12 as the quarter ended. There is no doubt that the Warriors lost their poise as a group at the same time, and the result of 48-12 was one of the soundest lickings administered to the Warriors in many years. All in all we fumbled 11 times, and whenyou comine this with, defensive lethargy and missed assign­ ments, the result is a massive disaster. The sputtering War­ rior offensive machine man­ aged only 7 first downs all night, with 8 passes completed out of 20 attempts. Gary Fairchildled the infantry troops with 28 yards in 8 carries, while Zion was rolling up numerous yards on the ground and in the air. This certainly was a dis­ heartening loss for the War­ riors, but their own blunders out underneath the lights were the root cause for the slaughter. If the orange and black are to 88 Yard Pass Ignites Rally Sophomore Warriors Stun Zion 18-0 come back, they are going to have to find an offense that will consistently move and hold on­ to the ball. Defensive assign­ ments will also have to be car­ ried out consistently or War­ rior foes will have a field day this year. "Spring back" will have to be the Warrior watch­ word this week as the Warrior eleven tries to prepare for Sat­ urday's afternoon contest against Libertyville over there. CONFERENCE STANDINGS W L 1. Barrington 1 0 2. Zion Benton 1 0 by Paul Palmateer The McHenry Sophomore Warriors rallied in the second half for three touchdowns to break the game wide open Fri­ day night at Zion-Benton, winning 18-0. The rally started early in the third quarter with the War­ riors on their own 12 yard line. At this point, quarterback Ron Miller rolled out of a pock­ et, and flicked an 88 yard pass to halfback Don Prazak. The extra point was missed, and the Warriors led 6-0. On the fol­ lowing kickoff, Zion's big full­ back fumbled, Denny Hovseth alertly picked it up and raced in for a score, but the of­ ficials called the play back to the point of fumble. A few plays later Ronnie Miller swept right end on a quarterback pow­ er sweep to send the young War­ riors out in front 12-0. The pressure lessened now, with the sophomores ahead by two touch­ downs. The third and final score came midway through the fourth quarter, when fleet-footed Den­ ny Hovseth skirted the left end for 35 yards. , The first half was all de­ fense from both sides, with only Zion getting close to pay dirt. The Warriors, at this point, held tight while pre­ venting the home ZeeBees to die on the two yard line. The stiff wall was provided by Dave Carlson (who was the defen­ sive game gem), Jim Walker, Dave Bookman, Marty Steins- dorfer and Pat Higgins. Coaches Bill Blankenhorn and Paul Palmateer agreed it was Thinclads Victorious Once Again, Beat Elgin 20-38 by Bert Hagemann Coach Don Seaton's flying harriers ground out their 22nd consecutive dual victory in cross country competition this past week against a stubborn squad from Elgin high school. Warm-Up Shoot Held Next Sunday At Antioch Antioch's 885 Civic club will play host to the 1969 crop of nimrods with a Hunter's Warm- Up Shoot on Sunday, Sept. 28. Hopeful hunters will have an opportunity to sharpen up their shooting in preparation for the upcoming hunting season and, at the same time, bring home eatable game, all cleaned and dressed, and ready to pop into the oven. On the line will be rock cornish hens, turkeys, ducks and chickens, to be won by all classes of gunners. Heading the list of "value shoots" is the cornish hen shoot, in tt^ree e- +•, vents which will enable "good shooters, poor shooters, and lucky stiffs to win an equal share of the prizes. In one event, the HI-LO WHITE BIRD shoot, the high scoring gun wins a hen, the lowest scoring shooter al­ so wins a hen, as does the lucky one who bags the white target. Another event, the Hl-2 WHITE BIRD shoot enables two lucky gunners to win birds by break­ ing the white targets while the high scoring sharpshooter latches on to the third hen. For the experts, the WIN- NER-TAKE-ALL contest, as its name implies, will give the three hens to the high scor­ ing gun. Another event, the TURKEY and a CHICKEN shoot will net the high gun a young torn tur­ key and the lowest scoring con­ testant will get a chicken. Chickens will go on the block in Single, Double, Triple, and Quintuple White Bird shoots. Ducks will be shot for in high scoring events. All of the contests have been designed to enable average and low average shooters to win a larger share of the booty against the hot shots. Non shooters too will have an opportunity to win some goodies in stationary tar­ get shoots. Ladies of the 885 club will serve a barbecued chicken din- All'Time All-Star Game At Marian Central Oct. 19 About 55 former Marian Cen­ tral players have been lined up for the All-Time All-Star game scheduled Sunday, Oct. 19. The game was inserted Into the Hurricanes card when a var­ sity game was cancelled by Driscoll. The former Marian athletes will be divided into two squads, perhaps players from 1959-64 facing those from 1965-69. Or some other division may take place, depending on who will be available at game time. Former Marian coaches have indicated they'll be on hand and John Kirchberg and Steve Zoia, members of the first Hur­ ricanes' staff, will guide the teams. Adding to the pulchritude and tan will be the presentation of several former cheerleaders. Jbuck Thillman, Steve Sexton other committee members welcome more Marian athletes of years gone by. Those who can make it should contact Coach Tom Parker at Marian or one of the committee members. ner all day long for the hungry contestants and spectators. An all day demonstration of archery will be put on by the I.C.A., an Antioch archery club. Shooting will start at 10 a.m. on the grounds of the Northern Illinois Conservation club, three miles west of Antioch on Route 173, and will continue un­ til all the prizes are shot out, unless darkness comes on be­ fore this occurs. * Proceeds from this event will be used by the 885 club for their designated local civic projects. William E. Brook, Antioch civ­ ic leader, is chairman of the shoot committee. The Warrior 20-38 victory was hampered by the absence of Glen Hampton who sat out this con­ test with a pulled leg muscle, but Warrior depth rose to the occasion as usual. Brad Pic- tor garnered another first place finish in a time of 15:16, fol­ lowed by Keith Hutchinson in second place, 11 seconds later. Wayne Smith added to the low winning total with a 4th, and then Bruce Davis andJimFaas com­ pleted the Warrior scoring with a sixth and seventh respective­ ly. Mike Freund and rapidly im­ proving Fred Stark played the roles of pushers with their 9th and 11th place finishes, follow- sd closely by Eric Weiss in 12th and Mike Wisniewski and John Oeffling in 13th and 14th. So, once again the familiar refrain of Warrior power held sway as the gutsy orange and black put another big win into their bulging victory bag. PG. 6- PLAINDEALER - WED. SEPT. 24, 1969 LITTLE WARRIORS WIN The little Warriors also put another win on the scoreboard with a 19-42 victory over the maroons. Terry McGibbon as usual turned in an excellent time in winning the race, and teammate John Seaton pulled in with a third place finish. From there on it was a string of or­ ange and black as the following runners came in before the next Elgin finisher. John Diedrich, Billy Bolger, Greg Pickrum, John Hendricks, Twig Miller, Tim McMillan, and Tom Light- ner who sprinted the last 200 yards to edge the second El­ gin runner to come in on an llth place finish. Coach Seaton feels that the toughest test of the year will come this Thurs­ day in a triangular meet with Barrington at North Chicago. This stern test should show just how much mettle the long distance men have, and how they will stack up against top­ flight North Suburban compe­ tition. an overall team effort on both the offensive and defensive teams. They also felt there were a few exceptionally fine jobs done by Dave Carlson, Mike Carlson and Ron Miller on de­ fense and Denny Hovseth, Don Prazak, Jeff Frantz, Bob Rue- melin, and Bob Stark on of­ fense. Denny Hovseth, the fleet- footed qfjarterback, finished the evening With 148 yards rushing, and a /amble recovery, while Don Prazak finished with 88 yards in pass receiving. The Warriors now hold a one win, one loss record to date, with their next game at Liberty­ ville this Saturday at 12 noon.

The final score indicates that once again the orange and black garnered most of the early finishes. Senior Glen Hampton, showing last season's form, flashed across five seconds ahead of teammate Brad Pictor to grab off first place laurels. Pictor was fol­ lowed closely by junior Keith Hutchinson in third, Wayne Smith in fifth, and Mike Freund in seventh. Warrior pushers who improved their times and showing greatly from their last outing were Bruce Davis in eighth, and Eric Weiss in tenth place. Although the weather was cloudy and cool, the rugged Warrior running machine re­ mained red hot and hitting on all cylinders. In the preliminary race, the little Warriors swept the first seven places in another awe­ some display of power and depth as they rolled to another per­ fect score victory, 15-50. The first seven Warrior finishers in order of finish were McGib­ bon, Seaton, Diedrich, Bolger, Hendricks, Thomas, and Pick- rum. A Larkin runner managed to sneak into eighth place, and then Lightner, Miller, McMil­ lan, Smith and Ormord grabbed off the next five places. Soooo, happiness reigns until another match in the cross-country BOWLING NOTES McHENRY RECREATION Sunday Night Mixed League J. Rogers, 232^72; J. Crook, 532; J. Cable, 9r4; R. Lary, 521; J.

All Youth Horse Show Next Sunday The Chuck Wagon Riders will hold an all youth horse show next Sunday, Sept. 28, at the Huntington Stables, formerly R & S Ranch, between McHenry and Woodstock. There will be trophy winners among the riders (boys and girls) in the various classes. Anita Rhoton has the infor­ mation for those of you in the McHenry area, 385-3840.

His ready wit and friendly way were hard to match. He must have been born that way. Those fine traits were natural. One couldn't develop them in a life­ time. An Irishman through and through, he loved the cards some of us sent him on St. Patrick's Day. To have known Bob Frisby was a pleasure. To have called him a friend was a privilege. The tip-off came that the Cubs were through last week when HerbReihansperger had a ticket for Junior Freund and couldn't interest him in going to the game. Funny, Herb didn't think of us. Or, maybe he did. For sports fans who wanted to get their minds Off baseball last Sunday the Green Bay Pack­ ers furnished a football show. " The Pack Is Back" sign was in evidence. Looks like the Bears have a lot of work cut out for them. That Packer de­ fense was too much. And as long as they have Bart Starr the of­ fense will do just fine. Northern\ \llini \ ^ewmer \ News Lee Kiltz and Gary Wilson shot the highest scores at the Northern Illini Bowmen broad- head shoot. Lee is a Northern Illini Bowman from Woodstock, who won the Barebow Jack Per­ ry Travelling Trophy and Gary Wilson of Little Fort Archers of Waukegan won the Freestyle Travelling Trophy. Exactly 129 bow hunters sharpened their eye and Um­ bered up their bowarms at the Jack Perry Broadbead shoot. Northern Illini Bowmen win­ ners were : first places to Earl Bird, Horst Mielke, Ardene Ra­ ven, Jean Bird and youth Rex Sommer and Keith Englehardt. Second place winners in their respective classes were: Jim Dion, Joe Raven, Earl Pad­ dock, John Wallin, Harv Eady, Jim Sanders, Shirley Heffer- nan and youth, Jeff Raven. Third place medal winners were: Erwin Schimanski, Lyle Trumble, Les Adams. The all-state archery deer season in Wisconsin opened Sat­ urday, Sept. 20. Many of the broadheaded shooters tried their luck with the wiley white- tail, enjoying the woods to the fullest extent while hunting from stands or stalking, to within a few yards of their quarry. Now that summer is offic­ ially over, it is time to get the wood pile ready for winter. ITEM: If you plan to re- finish a piece of furniture, re­ move as much hardware as possible before you begin.
