(STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD) Coast Guard etc. News | Each year across the nation, flotillas of the United States Coast Guard auxiliary offer boating safety courses to the public. Don't you think you owe it toyourselfand your family to learn how to operate your boat safely? You might ask, "Why should I bother taking an auxiliary course? I've been around the water a few years; I can take care of ""myself." Yes, you probably can take care of yourself on the water; but all of us, sooner or later, become a little rusty on the fun­ damentals. We begin to overlook the important rules in boating. And what about recent changes in the rules of the road, or the boating laws of your state? Do you know all about them and how they affect you? The United States Coast Guard auxiliary, Flotilla 6-5 is holding a one day course on Boating Safety. The course will take place on Sunday afternoon Jan. 21, 1973 at 2 p.m. It will be held at the United States Coast Guard Boating Safety Detach­ ment, 17 South Route 12, Fox Lake, Illinois.

Having to stay in the house drives us plain nuts. Suppose Bill De Vries and his wife are in Florida by this time. We asked Bill if he planned to stay down there until the White Sox got to Sarasota for spring training. Oh, what he said! Ben Frett writes from St. Petersburg and encloses a report from their local paper about the robins being back to take a nip at the berry. We had a report a couple of years ago from Petie Schaefer when he visited Ben. Berries on the Florida holly bush ferment this time of year. Flocks of robins swoop down on a tree when the berries are ready. Theywind up bombed - staggering Ben says^tfflPJr were gone all day when the robins stripped their tree, so missed all the fun. It seems that mocking birds also like the little nip and a couple of them will fight off a whole flock of robins. Ben says Walter Carey's tree was hit by the robins last week. To tell you the truth, Ben, we thought Petie was giving us a story about those bombed robins. Must learn not to doubt his stories. As we entered the Longhorn Steak House the other night, somebody said, "Here comes the Roving Reporter." It was Bill "Scotty" Thomas. He's the guy who sent us a doozy of a card last summer and all this time we thought it was Herb Reihansperger. - The card read "Wid ye mind putting in six votes for our favorite team - THE Cubs?" It was signed by the whole Mc- Tavish clan in Bonnie Scotland. Bill's wife (she's Irish) told us how great plans were made to send the card. Bill is now calling attention to "Rabbie's Birthday" - none other than the famous Robert Burns, great Scottish poet. Now, what in the world can we do to celebrate that birthday? (We may wait to celebrate the whole thing - like ~ say - the 17th of March). "Hassling H Defeat Zion v> arriors 26-22 Zeebees Defeat Warriors 55 To 54 By Dick Rabbitt In a great come from behind effort the McHenry high school wrestlers defeated the ZeeBees from Zion 26 to 22. Trailing 17 to 6 Steve Hurckes won his match in the 2nd period on a forfeit when his opponent Ridelle was injured and could not continue. Scott Lundelius managed to tie. Hanson was defeated and the Warriors trailed 22 to 14. Zion forfeited th3e 185 lb., match to Scott Nimsgern and the Warriors were within 2. With Pat Heald and Joe Dougherty both ill, Coach Paul Palmateer called upon his 185 lb., Mike Thornton to wrestle in the heavyweight division. This looked like the mismatch of the century. Upton the ZeeBee heavyweight stood 6'4" and weighed in at 285 lbs. One wonders what went through the mind of Mike's mother as he went forth to battle. Her fears however, were unfounded. After a standoff first period, and the first time in memory the mat was completely circled with fans watching this great match. In the second period the spunky Thornton, with the quickness of a cat, took the big fellow down and pinned him for a Warftor victory. Congratulations are in order for Coach Palmateer and his fine squ^d. for a job well done. RESULTS 98 lbs., Scanlin, McH. Dec. - Mullen, Z.B.; 105 lbs., Morreale, McH.

By Dick Rabbitt A gallant fourth quarter rally fell short by one point and the Warriors were defeated at Zion Friday night by a score of 55 to 54. The defeat leaves the Warriors ^jvith a 2 and 3 con­ ference record and a tie with Woodstock for fifth place. Zion is now 3 and 2 and tied for third with North Chicago. With Bobby Habich getting three baskets, the Warriors jumped off to a 14 to 12 quarter lead. With 3:30 left in the 2nd period the Warriors led 26 to 18, and then hit a cold spell. The ZeeBees with McKinney get­ ting 8 pts moved ahead at halftime 28 to 26. in the 3rd period it was all Zion. They Outscored the locals 17 to 10 and went into the final 8 minutes with a 45 to 36 lead. Up to this time the Zion defense held Mark Bentz to only 6 pts. With Ludwig, Bentz and Habich scoring the Warriors crept up on the ZeeBees and with 50 seconds remaining, and trailing 54 to 52, stole the ball. Working the ball for a good shot and with 11 seconds remaining, each official blew a whistle. One was for a three second violation, the other for a foul on Zion. After a big discussion the ball was awarded to Zion, because of the three second violation. Colbert was fouled and made his first shot. On the second shot he missed, and Ludwig raced the length of the floor for a basket as time ran out. It was a tough loss {(it the Warriors, after their great comeback in the 4th period. Itjjtfas a tough defensive g&'me as the shooting will show. Zion made 20 out of 55 for a 36 percent average, while the Warriors made 21 out of 67 for a 31 percent average. McKinney had 22 pts for Zion, while Ludwig with 15 and Bentz's 12 paced the Warriors. This loss leaves the Warriors overall record at 7 wins and 6 defeats. Friday - North Chicago here. Saturday - Kaneland here.

Free throws were the key to the 84 to 68 victory that Oakton Community college rang up over McHenry County college Monday night, Jan. 8. Both teams connected for 32 field goals while Oakton cashed 20 of 27 free throw attempts, but McHenry hit on only 4 of 7 tries from the charity stripe. Both teams were extremely ^iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinTnniiiTniifiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii^ cold from the floor the first half as Oakton pulled to a 31 to 21 margin at intermission. The Scots began to warm up the second half with Bruce Har- becke and Wes Witmus setting the pace and hitting from all angles. Unfortunately the lads from Oakton refused to fold and although McHenry narrowed the margin to 6 points several times, the score never got any closer. McHenry will try again when they take on the very tough Wright Junior College from Chicago. Game time is. 2:30 p.m. at the Crystal L high school fieldhouse.

The results were very favorable. On the varsity level, Randy Watkins easily won the 200 yd. freestyle. Mark Koerber picked up a pair of firsts in the 200 yd. Individual Medley, and the 100 yd. butterfly. Lowell Kively won the diving. In a rare Frosh-Soph meet the locals completely dominated the "Royals". Most of the time these boys swim against J.V. Squads made up of upperclassmen. Competing on their own level, it was simply no contest. Two young lads were double winners. Erv Gall Starting Saturday, Feb. 3, 1973, the children's in­ structional swim program will begin. The classes will be divided into three groups: beginners, intermediate, and swimmers. Classes will be held between 9 and 10 a.m. and 10 and 11 a.m. The instructional program will cover getting used to the water, front crawl, back crawl, leg and arm strokes, breast stroke, side stroke, and elementary rescue techniques.
