PAGE • -PI.AINDEALER - FRIDAY, JULY *. 1»74 EARL WALSH So I Hear SPORTS EDITOR ! As soon as we pay off our bets to Barbara Wagner (Plaindealer) and John Busscher, we hope to forget that All-Star baseball game. As we see it, put the entire White Sox team on the field next year against those National Leaguers and scare 'em out of their shoes. PICKUPS - "By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong." -- Charles Wadsworth "To get maximum attention, it's hard to beat a good, big mistake." Football in July and August doesn't hold any great thrill for us. Let the air get crisp and a little frost on the pumpkins and we get interested. -OPEN ALL WEEK- HELDOVER Anyhow, there is too much overlapping in sports programs. Somebody gets too hungry. Joan Rivers wrote a column on the fears of depositing one's hulk in a dentist's chair. That made one dentist a bit touchy and he wrote to say it ain't so. It ain't, ain't it? We must remember to clip that response to our "Friendly Dentist" just to show him there is not supposed to be any pain or anxiety. Since we have learned that modern methods have done away with all the suffering, we can't wait to hear that drill buzzing again. SUDDEN THOUGHT -- Our father wanted his eggs fried hard - didn't want to be chasing them around his plate. WINS FISH CONTEST Robert Seaton, 3805 W. Grove, McHenry, has won an honorable mention in the St. Paul Dispatch and Pioneer Press summer-long fishing contest with a 9 lbs., lO1^ oz., walleye during the contest's eighth week.

Three Teams Vie For Playoff Spots * In Industrial League With the teams entering the final two weeks of regular season play only first place Jake's Dead End Lounge and second place Swanson Chalet have been cinched Third and fourth places will riot be decided until possibly the final game of the season. The way it looks now is the winner of the Rusty Nail - Phillip's 66 match will take third place while the loser will find itself tied with the McHenry Hospital But then the Hospital just might beat Jake's9!9 Whatever does happen will climax a season of close games, heartaches, upsets and quite a few surprises. Standings as of Thursday, July 18: W L ,GB Jake's Dead End Lounge 14 0 Swanson Chalet 11 3 3 McHenry Hospital 9 6 5M> Phillip's 66 8 6 6 Rusty Nail 8 6 6 Outlaws 7 8 7 »/2 Riverside Bake Shop 4 10 10 Morton Chemical 3 11 11 Brake Parts 0 14 14 Games played Tuesday, July 16: Jake's won twice over Brake Parts 12 to 2 and 26 to 4. Phillip's 66 split with Morton Chemical winning 12 to 8 and then losing the nite cap 14 to 9. Jake's, in clinching first place, were led in game one by Terry Godina's 3 homeruns and 4 RBI's. Greg Freund added a homerun while Gene Hester went 3 for 3 including a double and homerun good for 3 RBI's. Mike Freund also hit a homerun. In game two Terry Houseth had 3 hits including a double and homerun driving in 4 runs. Mike Freund and Steve George both went 4 for 5, Freund hitting a double and homerun while George cracked a homerun and 3 doubles. Greg Freund batted a perfect 5 for 5 including a pair of triples. Paul Rogers, CJ. Ludford and Tom Blenner all hit safely 3 times each, two of Blenner's hits were doubles. Pete Merkel hit a double and triple in 5 at bats. Phillip's 66 needed a twin victory but had to settle for a split as Morton Chemical played an outstanding second game in earning their 3rd victory of the season. In game one both teams changed leads however the old Morton nemises - errors at a costly moment - helped Phillip's. Wnek went 3 for 4 in leading the winners and Anderson, Martel and Pryski played their usual strong defense in the outfield. Pete Mahoney hit 3 homeruns for Morton and Pete Smith had two but all for nought Game two saw Morton continue to crack the homeruns as Smith, Mahoney, and Larry Schwartz wield the big bats. Norb Adams made some excellent stops at second base for Phillip's 66 but it was not enough to hold Morton. Wnek, a fine third baseman for Phillip's 66, made his first error of the season as he was moving in on Clyde Bellows record for 1972 - a single season without an error. G. Anderson went 3 for 4 while Jerry Bellak homered for Phillip's 66. Pruski added 3 hits for the losers. Single games played Thursday, July 18: Rusty Nail won a big game over Morton Chemical 20 to 16. Leon, Dennis and Gary Schmitt combined for ^ hits including 3 doubles and a nomerun. Vinnie Freund added two homeruns and Bill Comstock had a double and homerun. Gary Busse went 3 for 5. The Outlaws were surprwld by Riverside Bake Shop 10 to 4.\ McHenry Country Club In the finals of the President's Tournament played at the club on Sunday, July 21, in Class A, Ray Spiess shot a 34 on the front nine and then held off a challenge by Paul Overton to finally defeat Paul on the 18th hole. Gary Fields defeated Dick Warfield in Class B as both men shot in the 70's. Pretty good golf for Class B players. Those handicaps should be going down. In Class C, Tom Burke - as good a competitor as there is in the club - beat Bob Schmaling in a hard fought match that wasn't decided until the 17th hole. Jim Kenton played his best game of the year to defeat Bruce Domoto in Class D in another closely contested finaj match. I remember when Jim didn't play in club events because he thought he was not good enough, now there is no stopping him. Congratulations to all these champions. Tennessee Dog Fight Tournament will be held at the club this Sunday, July 28 with the club championship starting the following Sunday, Aug. 4. McHEN YOUTH LEAGUE The loss knocked the outlaws out of the playoff race. Jim Wettland played another outstanding game at third base besides hitting 4 for 4 including 2 doubles and 3 RBI's. Bryce Klontz hit another homerun and a triple. Tom Schmitt pitched his best game of the year as he held the Outlaws scoreless for six innings. Schmitt also went 2 for 3. Jim Meeker added 3 for 4 for the Bake Shop. Ken Prazak, the Outlaws leading hitter, had one homerun and 3 hits in 5 trips to the plate. Phillip's 66 outhit Swanson Chalet but were outscored 14 to 4. Eleven runners were left on the bases as the big hits were never there. Phillip's 66 was led by Jerry Bellak's 4 for 4; Wnek had 4 hits while Czeranski and Adams had 3 hits each. Swanson Chalet, in taking second place, was led by their hot hitting shortstop, Paul Adams, who had 4 hits. Ed Raske, Vic Freund and Gary Fields had 3 hits each, with Freund hitting 2 doubles. Bob Freund came out of a slump and drove in 3 runs and hit safely 3 times. vwwwwwvwwww Stock Car Racing Ron Marish of Milwaukee won the 25 lap super modified feature at Wilmot. In the Sportsman Midseason Championship event, Sid Norton of McHenry scored the victory and took a clean sweep for the second week in a row by winning the feature, heat and fast time. The Interstates Racing Association announced that the next two scheduled Wednesday night shows have been cancelled due to lack of cars support. The race on Aug. 7 will be only held the night before the Kenosha County Fair opens. Jim Leon - Not Mike! In the Wednesday, July 24, issue of the Plaindealer an article on the sports page stated that Mike Leon won the City of McHenry Free Throw tournament in the 6 to 8 age group. The article should have stated that Jim Leon won the tourney. This reporter apologizes for the error. McHENRYJR.

Make sure the other boat knows of your intentions, put fenders over the side, and station someone amidship to keep the boats slightly apart until they are securely lashed. Lash bow and stern together, leaving enough leeway so each boat can roll free of the other. Never lash two boats together when the sea is running high.

C. - Leonard Koppett , writ ing in "The Sporting News" re­ cently, put his f inger on one aspect of televised sports most fans have never con­ sidered. Koppett says television sponsors, which now provide professional clubs with much of their annual revenue, are not too much interested in how good a team is , but how good the market is , in the area injvhich they play. In other words, if the New York Mets are a sorry base­ ball team, the television sponsor may be interested to a degree, but he is more interested in Rand McNally marketing at las f igures for the New York area. If there are many potential customers in the area where the team plays, that team is l ikely to enjoy television coverage of i ts games on the road. If the market is small , IE HURLED FOUR SHUTOUTS -MOST FOR A SOX PITCHER -- AND POSTED A 13-13 RECORD WITH A 3. 58 EARNEP RUN AVERAGE. no matter how fine the team is , i t ' s less l ikely to have i ts games televised. Thus the television of sports , in the last analysis , depends more-on U.S. com­ mercial television--on the market area in which a team plays than in the perform­ ance of the team i tself! oif Kay rEWTON, /VMSS.
