»AGE 6 - PLAIN DEALER-WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5. 1974 EARL WALSH So I Hear Jim Curran was quick to call about our observation on athletes' good looking wives. Their pictures are on the sport pages, aren't they? Guess Jim thought we wore blinders. SPORTS EDITORJ in evidence, you will find their kind. Replays on TV are making some umpiring decisions look mighty bad -- not on balls and strikes, but at the bases. It surprised us to see so many along the parade route. You would think it was Marine- Festival Day. Walt Freund, a "Hall of Fame Sports Fan" in our book, is celebrating his 84th birthday this week. And, he still knows the score. "Where did you get that?", we asked a little boy with a sucker. "From the doctor when he gave me a shot," was the reply. Thought we would have some fun so asked where he got the shot. "In the doctor's office" was the answer we didn't expect. It can't be any secret that American League pitchers are making Ron Santo and Dick Allen look bad on low, outside curves. LOOK ALIKES-- Rich Gossage and Terry Forster, White Sox pitchers. A nice young Mamma, now that she has a son growing up, tells us that mention of long hair is a No-No. OK. We won't say a word. Not that it changes a good young man, but darned if we can recognize ihem with long hair, a beard or mustache. Charles Lindwall of McHenry Shores, who deals in stone markers, tells us we reported visiting a marble quarry when .visiting Ed and Agnes Thennes in Montello, Wis. last year. He says it is granite. Guess we pulled another rock. Summer must be here ahead of the official date. How else could they have so many re­ runs on television. If our White Sox don't start putting it all together soon, we are going to threaten to cancel our order for World Series tickets. How do you get rid of toadstools? There is a beautiful crop in our front yard. It is getting close. The annual Joe Frett Night is coming Wednesday, June 19th. Better get your tickets. There will be a crowd. I GOLF AWARD. Kenne Ludwig (L) a junior at West Campus receives the trophy for low total in all 1 matches. Coach Chuck Cuda presented the award. Kenne captured third in the district tourney with ! a 76. In the conference, Kenne placed seventh with a 37 in the rain shortened tourney. (STAFF PHOTO--WAYNE GAYLORD) Frantz And George Share [Player Of Week Honors After writing the question and sure somebody would tell us to dig them out, we saw the answer in Bee-Line. Spread a double dose of fertilizer over the area. That's what the man said. It was Friday night that Judy Svalander's mother reminded us of the coming "Judy Svalander In Concert" program set for Sunday night in the Crystal Lake High School auditorium. ^ ,v"--• g -ahead L ike to y ednesd \ by Bruce Ericson After two weeks of rain-outs, Men's 16" Softball League ted little time in making up games.

Tom Spasojevich of Old Bridge was the only player who could find the holes with any success in this defensive duel. Tom accounted for all four of Old Bridge's runs as he scored twice and had 2 R.B.I.'s. Butch Meyer's two-out double in the bottom of the seventh inning brought in the winning runs as Carl's won a see-saw battle over Teko's 14-13. On Tuesday, Jerry Miller's double in the seventh inning sent across the run that proved to be the difference in Bavaria Haus' 11- 10 win over Teko's. It was Wayne Frantz again who paced Old Bridge to a 13-5 victory over Carl's. Wayne had a single, a double, and a triple to go along with his 3 R.B.I.'s.

Steve George of the V.F.W. went 10 for 16 with 5 R.B.I.'s.- From the raves we read about the Cubs' rookie, Alexander, it appears that Carmen Fanzone (third basemen and night club entertainer) had better keep up with his music. With all the mixup on when to observe Memorial Day, it was a pleasant surprise to see the large crowd in the park Thursday morning for the program. Judy, a talented little doll, has taught many young people to dance and they pleased a large audience. Most McHenry area people. Prr?eeds will go to the McHenry Area Rescue Squad. Some of those dancers were mere tots, but they had learned how to perform. The ceremony was impressive as both young and older showed respect. Didn't have to look long to find the Bob Thompsons and Maude Granger. Mrs. Frank Meyer completed the foursome. Where patriotism is Couldn't help thinking how lucky our community is to have a person of Judy's ability instructing our young people. You could tell those kids love her. And she loves them. It was a nice evening -- different from the usual events we attend. In fact it was so good that we didn't mind missing Lawrence Welk.

County College Offers Sailing, Canoeing And Scuba Diving Courses The Office of Community Services of McHenry County College is offering several summer session classes which will be held at the Crystal Lake Park District at 300 Lake Shore Drive.

The class is taught by members of the Illinois Institute of Diving, Inc.

We express, publicly, our gratitude to the residents of these 5 subdivisions for their fine and generous cooperation because every youngster can take advantage of the swim program at these various locations. The two sponsoring clubs consider this to be a most important program for all children living in and around a lake area like Wonder Lake. They encourage all parents to register their children for the Wonder Lake Swim Program 1974 for beginner, advanced beginner, intermediate, swimmer, and lifesaving classes. With a new hat or outfit, it's hard for a gal to walk a block without meeting everyone she sees. Some men marry poor gals and settle down, while others marry rich ones and settle up. DIVOT DOLLS By Dee Overton Wow! For Qualifying in Class Match Plav at McHenry Country Club, the gals dug in their spikes and really played some good golf. Two Class C players from Des Plaines sunk approaches. By the way they ride in the same car -- do you suppose one might have had to walk home if? Gene Napier on No. 2 for a 6 and Betty Wayman on No. 15 for 7. Ethel Conway has the distinction of the first "Birdie" in Class B. Ethel sank a long putt for a deuce on the par 3 No. 18. Four more Class A players had birdies for a total of 8 'Birds on the Birdie Tree'. Joan Buss also had a deuce on No. 18, (I guess it runs in the family). Letty Busscher and Laverne Harpling each had 3's on No. 14. (Hey guys -- wanna have a contest out on 14 some day?) Our Club Champion, Marilyn Bishoff, showed a little style by picking the tricky No. 6th hole for her bird. Nice 4 Marilyn. But along comes a quiet 'Swede' who sang "Bye, Bye, Birdies". On the 18th hole, she took her trusty 5 w8od and proceeded to hole out for a 'Hole In One'! I'd call that a 'Touch of Class'. Our hearts are happy and our congratulations to you -- Anna Johnson. Yours will be the gold bird perched on very top of the Tree'. Weekly Winners; Class A Low Putts'-- 28, Nell Fidler ; Low Net of 77, Alvina Yopp with a fine round of 91 gross, (but I had 36 putts cried she) Ah -- the lament of golfers. Class B; Low putts, Char Zwissler -- low net, tie -- Mabel Smith and Myrt Johnson. Myrt lays claim to the only other 'Hole in One' of the Ladies Golf Association of McHenry Country Club, also on the 18th, Myrt shut out such a worthy opponent as Marilyn Reihansperger in Match Play. Class C, Eleanor Krueser Low Net -- 74, Gene Napier Low Putts -- 31. The nine hole group made an appearance today -- 7 strong -- kinda like the ground hog, if they can't see their shadow they won't play. However, One won it all -- mostly. Low Putts -- Lorraine Young; Low Gross -- Lorraine Young; Low Net -- • Lorraine Young and Millie Simon tie. Hang in there Millie. Their event was 'Any Three Clubs of your Choice'. Tongue twister of the week -- Funny, Friendly Franny fanned a fifth putt on the 8th. Our Monthly bridge winners were a tie at 3910 each; Maddy Holmer and Alvina YODD. playing at different tables.Myrt Johnson with 700 got the Booby Prize, (a book entitled: Why You Lose at Bridge!) Do share Jt with us Myrt. Ringer and Petunia play started today and 5 A players rang in yours truly Petunia for 3 points each. Words of Wisdom; She who laughts last laughs best. Chapel Hill oftuxr** Claire Rosing Tuesday, May 28 the rains held off long enough to enable the ladies to play nine holes of golf. Low Net in classes was the event for the day.
