Jake's, Chalet Win First Playoff Game By Pat Wirtz The first games of the t^74 playoffs saw Jake's Dead End Lounge blast Phillip's 66 off the ball diamond by a 28 to 8 score. Meanwhile Swanson Chalet won 12 to 3 over a cold hitting Rusty Nail team. Jerry's Phillip's 66 scored 3 runs in the first inning to hold a brief half inning lead When they scored another run in the fourth inning Jake's had already scored 13 runs. Pete Merkel's hot bat led Jake's as he hit safely 6 times, scoring 4 runs. Before Gene Hester was pulled he went 3 for 3. Mark Bentz, Mike Freund and Steve George all added 3 hits apiece with two of George's hits going for doubles. Frank Hovseth had a homerun in going 2 for 2 For Phillip's 66 Gene Anderson and Bill Pryski both went 2 for 4. Jerry's Phillip's 66 300 130 1 8 Jake's Dead End Lounge 427 257 x - 28 Rusty Nail Swanson Chalet 000 200 1 230 034 x In the other contest Swanson Chalet started early as their first two batters hit safely, Ed Raske a leadoff single and Bill Rudolph a 2 run homer. The second inning saw successive singles by Paul Adams, Bob Freund and Dale Snell followed by Rick Vycital 's sacrifice fly and a two out double by Raske good for 3 runs. -BROTHERS HIT Leon Schmitt led off the fourth inning for Rusty Nail with his second single and his brother Gary drove him in with a long t r iple to lef t center an3 scoring on an error This was their only score until a leadoff homer in the final inning by Gary Busse. Rusty Nail combined for only 7 hits compared to Swanson's 15 hits in the 7 inning contest. An excellent running catch in right center by Rick Vycital plus the fine' play of Bill Blankenhorn at third base who started one double play on a hard shot to his right and made three fine catches of hard hit liners, was important in holding back the Rusty Nail The Chalet kep Rusty Nail on the run as Bill Rudolph hit his second homerun in the fifth inning with no one aboard. Ray Franklin followed with a double; Vic Freund's single scored him and Paul Adam's second hit of the game drove Freund in to finish the fifth for Swanson's. In the sixth inning, with the bases loaded and two outs, Ray FRanklin hit a line shot on which the Rusty Nail center fielder tried a diving catch, failed, the ball bouncing over his outstretched glove for a grand slam homer. BUSSE HITS HARD Gary Busse led Rusty Nail with a double and homerun while Leon Schmitt hit safely twice. Bill Rasmussen added a triple for the Nail Swanson Chalet showed a balanced hitting attack as 9 players hit safely, with Raske, Adams, Bob Freund and Dale Snell going 2 for 3 while Rudolph and Franklin added 2 for 4's. The second games of the best 2 of 3 series are scheduled for Tuesday, Aug 13, with scores in Friday's paper. Jake's should have little trouble with Phillip's 66 while Rusty Nail should give Swanson Chalet a battle as they have been a "comeback" team all year. If both Jake's and the Chalet win Tuesday they would face each other Thursday in the first game of the championship series. However, if either Phillip's or Rusty Nail can win on Tuesday they would force a third game showdown on Thursday to decide who would play in the championship series This would push back the opening date of the THANKS TO YOU 1974 Livestock Auction buyers at the McHenry County Fair from the McHENRY area.

We lost two good neighbors last week, Tony Blake and Dick Frett Tony lived across the street when we moved into the neighborhood. We'll miss his wave and greeting. Dick hadn't been in the block so long, but was a good neighbor. Both were a part of McHenry for many years. They will be missed. We hear that Rollie Herrmann is staying close to the phone-waiting for a call to take the appointment as Vice President of the United States There is nothing like a round table for sociability when you go out with a crowd. No argument as to who sits at the head of the table. Took a ride up to beautiful Lake Lawn Sunday and found one shop selling Christmas decorations. They are either way ahead of the season or far behind. We get a sick feeling when a host on a TV show thanks a star guest for "dropping by." You know darn well the guest has been scheduled ahead -- for a price. It looks like Cleveland's Gaylord Perry of spit-ball fame will have to go back to the moist ball. Perry lost the first game of the season, won 15 in a row, then lost 6 in a row. The White championships to Tuesday, Aug. 20. At any rate come down to West Campus high school this Thursday and next Tuesday to see the 1974 12 inch softball playoffs! Sox hammered him in the last one. Art Boger, fast becoming an Old Timer in McHenry, recalled a lot of history in our brief visit recently. Art grew up across the street from Landmark School. Schedules for high school athletic programs came in this week and will be printed in the order of earliest starting dates. Hope you will ' cut them out when the whole family has read the Plaindealer Don't cut them out before. Those are little things that start big wars.
