Cub center fielder, would be there to speak. Sure -- we always like to hear those Cubs tell how they plan to go all the way next year. So I Hear SPORTS EDITOR. Hiller, a couple of have nots. Joe let it be known that he has a hair-piece business in Chicago. PLAINDEALER B$OTO ' * A large crowd attended the February meeting of the Johnsburg P.T O. Thursday evening and was treated to an evening of enjoyment, listening .to the Chicago Cub's colorful Joe Pepitone who spoke to the audience, answered questions, signed autographs and made a tape recording for the John­ sburg Junior High Journalism class. Everyone enjoyed his humor, congenial behavior and mod fashions. Joe drove out from Chicago in a personally autographed sports car, and was introduced by Chuck Hiller, the Johnsburg baseball talent who is presently with the New York Mets baseball organization. We didn't think it would ever happen, but our Athletic Director "Mac" is retiring. He came to McHenry 40 some years ago and coached every sport in the school. Some years later he played on a basketball team known as Joe's Aces. He was faster than greased lightning. Doris thought we might ask for a Sox player next year. We'll have to wait and see. Seemed to us that all the kids in the audience were Cub fans. Those Johnsburg kids have learned readin', writin' 'rith- metic and baseball as long as we can remember. The flashy Joe went over big as he answered questions and signed autographs. The kids loved him. The box score doesn't tell the whole story, but let's take a look. The Warriors outscored Woodstock 24-15 in field goals. The Warriors had 22 fouls called on them that gave the Streaks 23 points. The Streaks had only 15 fouls called from which the Warriors cashed in only 6 points. So. The game came near being lost at the free throw line. Mark Hoffman dropped through 16 points and seemed to hit the stride he is capable of on a basketball floor. Guarding from behind cost the Warriors some points, but Jerry Miller managed a clean steal in the closing seconds to move in and score all alone. It's a neat trick if you can do it. "Mac" stayed long enough to see the local athletic field named "McCracken Field". That was a nice honor. entered the little room, George would warn them not to lock the door. As if that wasn't frustrating enough, you couldn't get out. Finally George handed each guest a screwdriver as they entered. Such a bunch of locksmiths you never saw. by Bill Blankenhorn The McHenry Warriors were forced into overtime before coming home with a big victory at the expense of the Blue Streaks ip a thrilling 54-53 contest. It was an extremely important as well as pleasing victory for the Warriors as it not only kept them in second place, one game behind Libertyville, but they were also forced to play more than half the game with four juniors on the floor at one time which could be an indication of what the Warriors will have coming up next year. The game was close throughout as neither team could fnd the range offensively. McHenry did shoot quite well in the opening minutes of the first quarter against the Blue Streak zone defense, but could not score consistently the second and third quarters and con­ sequently Woodstock was able to keep the game close. Poor passing and inconsistent of­ fensive rebounding kept the Warriors from putting the game out of reach during the third quarter when they opened up a nine point lead. But the turnovers kept giving the ball back to Woodstock and the Blue Streaks were able to score a couple of times on the offensive board. McHenry missed a number of bonus free throw attempts during the regulation period and then in the overtime they missed a pair of one and one charity tosses when it appeared they would put the game away. The Warriors got the lead early in the overtime period as Jerry Miller stole a pass at mid-court and scored an easy lay-up and then Ron Miller hit on a 12 foot -jumper that put the Warriors up by four points. Woodstock came back and scored the next three points to narrow the gap to 54-53 and had one more chance to win as they had the ball out of bounds under the With appreciation for years of service to McHenry High, we wish "Mac" and his wife many years of enjoyment in retirement. Both have been fine citizens in McHenry. fiPORTS^ORNER Eileen Fitzgerald Ingiald enjoyed the mention of "Maggie" McCarthy. She roomed and enjoyed meals in the McCarthy home on Elm St., now occupied by the Frank Blakes. When that young O'Reilly girl roomed in the bedroom with the stove pipe, it must have been in the home many will remember as the Ray Page home on Green St. W yoo pszBcr A fjEfi/ 3PAZK /A/ T~HE BOX (MSS/VS a#Y) 15 PAGE 6 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY/ FEBRUARY 17, 1971 Warriors Down Woodstock In Overtime Thriller 54-53 higDy Krchar Messman Davis Sayles Gannon Blocksum 2 2 9 7 3 19 2 6 1 10 2 2 4 6 2 2 3 6 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 ] KOENEMANN I Country Made Sausages, | Hams and Bacon | GERMAN IMPORTS AND CHEESES | A Full Line Of . j • Delicatessen | 815-385-6260 Justea;^-12 j filllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllltlllllltiiiilillllliiiilii? He had good things to say about Leo Durocher and all his Cub mates. Like everybody else, he things the Cubs need a strong bull pen crew if they are to win the pennant. Saw Mr. and Mrs. Toney Roskie after the game. That seemed like old times and made our evening complete. Les Richards was working the time machine. He's been around since the game was invented. Warrior basket with six seconds to play but a wild throw-in pass hit the rafters and McHenry was able to claim the victory. Mark Hoffman led the McHenry offense with 16 points as a starting replacement for Gary Hosier while Don Prazak, replacing Len Gehrke who was sick, led the rebounding with 11 as he played a fine game. Jerry Miller added 12 points to the Warrior attack. Once again, however, it was a fine defensive effort for McHenry that was the difference in the contest. The Warriors will continue in their drive for the North Suburban conference crown this week-end as they travel to Barrington on Friday night and host North Chicago on Saturday night. All three teams, along with Crystal Lake, are tied for second place in the league. Score: Warriors - 54, Wood­ stock - 53 (O.T.)

Certainly not 6-year-old Bobbie McCracken, son of Mr. and Mrs. Don McCracken of McHenry. That was exactly what took place in an Elgin restaurant where Joe Pepitone was guest speaker. Bobbie showed him the portrait drawn by his mother, and after some tall bargaining, the youngster gave it to the Cub center fielder in exchange for his Cub uniform. The bargain carried with it a promise that Mrs. McCracken would draw an­ other picture just like it for Bobbie. She did just that, and when her son learned Pepitone was scheduled to speak at a Johnsburg school last week, he arranged to be on hand to greet the celebrity and obtain the promised auto­ graph on the brand new drawing. PLAINDEALER PHOTO Who says there isn't anything to do in a small town" Saturday night we joined city employees at a party in the George Diedrich home. 'Twafc a night of laughs and fun. But, George had better get the lock fixed on that powder room door. When a person Joe had more trouble finding Johnsburg than the astronauts had finding the moon. He admitted a preference to playing first base, but said he didn't care just so he was in the lineup AJso added that the outfield gave him a chance to be near the bleacher bums. Chuck Hiller introduced Pepitone and recalled the days when they both played in the Texas League Chuck will be active with the Mets in Florida until June when he will go to Marian. Virginia to manage their farm club. We thought so many times of going to see Jim Raycraft in Woodstock He died last week and we found time to go to his wake It should be a lesson to us. Jim was a real Irishman -- a rugged man after me own heart. Saw that 54-53 wing-ding the Warriors scored over the Woodstock Blue Streaks. Both teams were missing players through one cause or another, but a typical McHenry- Woodstock game resulted. Scots Lose To Harper And Waubonsee Fives The Waubonsee Chiefs meant business when they arrived in Crystal Lake this past Wed­ nesday night. When they left the high school fieldhouse they took with them the scalps of M.C.C.'s Fighting Scots and a 114 to 83 victory. Actually the game was not as one-sided as the score indicates and McHenry was within 6 points of the Chiefs after 5 minutes had elapsed in the second half. Unfortunately for MCC, Phil Neal, Waubonsee's jumping jack center could not be stopped and he scored a fan­ tastic 50 points befor^ the night was over. Jim Mulvenna held the hot hand for McHenry as he pumped 29 points into the nets. Terry Guffa regained his eligibility second semester and celebrated his return with a point production of 18 counters. The previous Thursday a highly improved Harper College five gained a measure of revenge by downing the Scots 82 to 72. The Scots got behind by 14 points the first half and then never could catch up. Tom Thomas, Steve Schafer and Mike Weingart led the Scots scoring with 19, 17 and 16 p o i n t s , r e s p e c t i v e l y . 4iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiir:;iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii(L
