4 ; '• • . . . . y Marian Central's Ail-Time All Stars Meet Sunday What started as a "fill-in" now becomes an auspicious ef­ fort to mark the 100th anni­ versary of football in Mcllen- ry county when two all-time All-Star squads from Marian Central's glory years gather for a game this Sunday after­ noon. The Interstate He roes--those athletes who performed before 1963 when Ma nan was free­ lancing against some of the mid ­ west's best--and the Confer­ ence Herjes--paced by that meinbornble 1964 Suburban Catholic championship team-- collide at 2 p.m. Sunday on George Harding field. The game is more than some exercise for former heroes, Squads are holding workouts, and grudge battles appear to be shaping in some corners be­ cause pride of achievement is evident by these men who in earlier years showed dedica- ' tion and hard work. Tom Parker, Marian's var­ sity coach, says this game will call attention to football's Cen­ tennial year with appropriate ceremonies and erection of the official Centennial year mark­ er. Since Marian appears to be the only school planning official ceremonies in connection with the Centennial, Tom Parsley, assistant principal and Mar­ ian's athletic director the first 10 years, has invited sports luminaries from around the county. Last week, several gathered for reminiscing and a photo session, including Dan Horne. Harvard; Leonard McCracken, McHenry; Toney Roskie and Mel Stuessy, Woodstock; and Tom Parsley, Crystal Lake. FORMER CHEERLEADERS Former Hurricane cheer­ leaders will participate in the festivities. Marian Pom Pom girls will perform. Former su­ perintendents of Marian -- a county-wide high school since 1959--will be special guests. The list includes the Rev. Joseph Egan, retired pastor at St. Mary's and superintendent of St. Mary's high school,pred­ ecessor high school to Marian Central, the Rev. Eugene Baum- hofer, Marian's first superin­ tendent; the Rev. Thomas Brady, now at Rockford, the Rev. Robert Schneider, now St. Mary's pastor; and the Rev. Philip Kennedy, present super­ intendent. Tickets for the game are available from members of Marian Fathers Club. Though this is not a fund-raising e- vent, tickets are being sold to help defray some necessary ex­ penses, such as for officials, insurance and programs. Originally Marian's varsity had a game with Driscoll Sun­ day, but it was cancelled when Dr is coil's athletic program violated state athletic associa­ tion regulations. Credited with organizing this sentimental gridiron battle are Walter Bo»vmai, Chick Thill- man. Steve Sexton and Tom Parker, among others. Help­ ing assure an attractive day for spectators are these for­ mer cheerleaders who are help­ ing line up additional cheer- leading beauties of the past decade; Mrs. Janet Burg Lea­ hy, Paulette Rizzo, Mrs. Mary Kristensen Spencer, Mary Pat Ciske, Laurie Murphy and Mrs. Tony Paluch, 1961 graduate of Marian Central Catholic high school, will be participating in the All-Time All Star alumni ijame this Sunday at George Harding Field, Woodstock. Tony, a McHenry athlete while attending Marian and now employed near Dundee, will play left guard with the Interstate Heroes squad. DON PEASLEY PHOTO SPORTS Hadn't visited Bimbo's for a while so dropped in this ^week. When leaving we men­ tioned to Eddie that he didn't play THAT song for us on the juke box. Gene Morenz explain­ ed that the record was lost three weeks ago. 'EARL WALSH SO 1 HEAR * -SPORTS EDITOR J * Tom Wiles let all within hear­ ing distance know the success of the Mets has rested with ,those Ex-Sox players. It was on tthe South Side where those boys ^got their training. Where the fault lies, we do not know. There are varied opin­ ions. It seems those closest to the situation should give it a good hard look. There is no hiding the fact that what is termed major sports have bogged down at Mc­ Henry High while the so called minor sports have risen to a lofty position. But, let's stick with our teams. Remefriber the Mets. " Joe Frett Night" at Mc- jHenry C ountry Club Wednesday night was a great success, at­ tended by a large crowd of friends. Joe has been a good and true friend to many of us through the years and the whole program was filled with sincere tributes to him. a great favorite with all who know him. \\ hen the program was over there was jolly mixing about, Fred Meyer had the orchestra play "Pony Boy". He never forgets our pony days. Not that he can remember that far back! At this writing the Mets lead the World Series three games to one and have certainly up­ set the Baltimore Orioles. The Mets haven't won it yet, but cer­ tain people are starting to point out to us the superiority of the National League. There are many parents and fans who think our Warrior foot- bail team needs a pat on the back instead of a kick in the pants. We agree. As previously stated in this column, we are with the boys all the way as long as they give their best. The best our Warriors have shown hasn't been enough. PG. 6 - PLAINDEALER - FRI.

ELM STREET 385-7320 Announce MCHS Swimming Schedule For School Year It was announced today by Harvey D. Ahitow, Community school director for McHenry Public schools that the con:-' munity swim schedule will be almost the same as last year. "There have been only a couple minor changes" stated Ahitow. Ahitow went on to say, last year was the first year for the swim program in McHenry. The program was very much exper­ imental in nature. There were some changes made during the year in the swim program. For the most part the initial program has not been altered. The pool last year was used approximately 20 hours by the community in addition to school use. During community use 600 citizens enjoyed the pool weeklv. Some of the more popular ac­ tivities in the pool last year were 50 mile swim, family night, adult night, and open swim on weekends. This past summer the pool was used for 8 weeks. A total of '300 children took swift) lessons in the pool this sum­ mer. The pool was in use dur­ ing the summer months, except August, a total of 44 hours per week. The total summer rec­ reation program held at West campus this past summer was a huge success. The pool was a major factor contributing to the success of the program. The pool at the present time is undergoing repairs and pool activities are scheduled to be­ gin Wednesday, Oct. 22. People having questions con­ cerning children swim lessons may contact Ahitow at 385-7210. . Thomas J. Kilroy Junior Freund finally got a- round to calling us, admitting he hated to talk to us. Says Herb gave him a bum rap about not going to that beautiful field at the end of the season and the end of all hope. But, Junior was there for the final game of the season and says he, "Where were all those red hot Cub fans that day?" You will be reading about those hilarious Globetrotters coming to McHenry October 28. This game is being sponsored by the "M" Club. There will be an advance sale of tickets and we are advised that tick­ ets are on sale at McHenry's Favorite Sports Center. It is a real treat to watch those Trotters perform. They know all the tricks. This week your sports page welcomes Dr. Thomas J. Kilroy who will write a column on ski­ ing. There are many people in our area interested in this great sport. We feel sure they will en­ joy these weekly columns. Tom has been an active skier for the past24years. He is a full certified instructor, a member of the Central United States Ski Instructors Association, an examinier for the C.U.S.S.I.A. and a member of the Profes­ sional Ski Instructors of Amer­ ica. He has taught at Wilmot Mt. Ski area for the past sev­ en years and for the last year he has been teaching atSunapee Mt. Ski area, Sunapee, New Hampshire. At the present time, Tom is a dentist serving with the U.S. Navy at Great Lakes Naval hos­ pital. Welcome skiers, this is the first of a series of articles which will continue throughout the ski season. Our first series, we shall briefly outline what we intend to cover during the year. Primarily, the column will be intended to discuss and illustrate the basic teaching forms and all associated aids The schedule for the pool will be as follows: Saturday Morning Learn to Swim Program Saturday 2:00-5:00 Open Swim Saturday 7:00-9:00 Adult Swim Sunday 2:00-5:00 Open Swim Monday 6:30-7:30 Men - Lessons Monday 7:30-8:30 50 Mile Swim Tuesday 7:00-9:00 Teen Club - H.S. Students only Wednesday 7:00-8:00 Women - Lessons Wednesday 8:00-9:00 Women - Lessons Thursday 7:00-9:00 Family Night Swim for learning the American ski technique. Secondly, we shall discuss equipment, what type is best for your ability, its relative cost and its proper care, and maintenance. Thirdly we shall cover all the local events of interest at near-by areas. The major item of interest for this weekend is the ski fare at Arlington race track. This will be on Friday night, Saturday, Saturday night, Sun­ day and Sunday evening. Thise- vent is always a major inter­ est for skiers and non-skiers alike. There will be ski mov­ ies and booths staffed by mem­ bers of the ski profession. These are qualified profession­ als who will be able to give ad­ vice from what type of equip­ ment to purchase or where to go for your ski vacation. F or those of you who do not have equipment of your own there will be a 44ski swap". This will let you purchase equipment at a moderate price or exchange your children's tmigrown equipment for another pair that will fit them better. Nevertheless, this show is al­ ways a good way to start off the season. Mickey Ganshirt Thillman. PAST HOMECOMING QUEENS Mrs. Bowman, Marian alum­ nus, is contacting past Home­ coming queens and helping co­ ordinate many facets of the event. The game marks the start of Homecoming week, too.
