In Spring Sports, The Eyes Have It PAG E7-PLAINDEALER-WEDNEDSAY/ APRIL 18, 1973 Now that spring is here, it's time to dust off the baseball bats, fishing tackle, golf clubs, tennis rackets, and other sports paraphernalia. It is also time, according to the Illinois Society for the Prevention of Blindness, for all sports enthusiasts, young and old, to give a serious thought to the condition of their eyes along with the condition of their equipment. The ability to see clearly at a distance is important to all sports participants, but it is not the only visual skill necessary to compete with skill and en­ joyment. Baseball, tennis, and golf, for example, require fast and accurate hand-eye coor­ dination and a N wide field of vision. Every sport, even fishing, requires good depth perception - the ability to judge space and distance relation­ ships. A fisherman also needs good near vision to rig the bait, and a golfer to keep'score and identify golf balls on the fair­ way. Indoors or outdoors, amateur or professional, participator or spectator, good vision can contribute to the success and enjoyment of any sports ac­ tivity. If you have any doubts about the condition of your eyes, a professional eye examination could be the sensible way to start a great season. Frosh Nine Wins Two 20 to 4 And 11 The McHenry freshmen baseball team made it a complete sweep Saturday as they defeated Batavia 20 to 4 and 11 to 5.

Bob Hrocec also hit a grand slammer the 6th. Terry Christy had 4"hits, and Ron Himpelmann pitched the complete game. In the 2nd game Tommy Ludwig went all the way giving up just 5 hits. Rich Gilbertsen had 2 triples, and Mike Mai went 3 for 3 in the hitting department. The young Warriors had 11 hits, giving them 30 for a good day's work.
