PAGE 7 - PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, AFK1L. 4, 1975 On The Sidelines With Dick Rabbitt What a way for a man to bow out of the coaching ranks. Coach John Wooden of U.C.L.A. really went out in style as his U.C.L.A. Bruins won the N.C.A.A. title Monday night defeating Kentucky 92 to 85. Wooden's team went to the finals ten times and ten times they came out a winner. As a young coach many years ago I attended a coaching clinic which had on its program, John Wooden U.C.L.A. He was not as famous as he is now, nor did he have any outstanding players, nor was his record that great at that time. However, what impressed me most was his sincerity to the game of basketball. He didn't tell the off color jokes that are common at a clinic, nor did he joke about the game of basketball. He was all business, he was there to give what knowledge he had attained to the high school coaches present. He was sincere in his thoughts and his words, and I'm sure that those that were present at the clinic remember as I do, the great gentleman from U.C.L.A. It could not have happened to a finer gentleman. College basketball will not be the same with the absence of Coach John Wooden. A local area newspaper has recently picked its All Af ea Team. Just missing out and getting Special Mention is our own Steve Koerber. I am not one to question the selection of others, but in this case I do have to make a point. John Tichy of Barrington was picked over Steve, and that I will question on any point of the game of basketball. In all statistics of the game, Steve was far superior to Tichy of Barrington. All I can say is that they sell more Elgin Couriers in Barrington than they do in McHenry. Marty Zeller, ISteve Kasprzyk. and Tom Stark of the Warriors all made Honorable Mention on the team. Congratulations are in order to Coaches Gray and Scott. Their tennis teams won the opener against Lake Zurich both by the score of 5 to 0. Most schools that the Warriors engage in tennis have the benefit of indoor courts. It is a feather in the cap of the netters to win the opener, and let's hope they continue on their winning ways. Again I urge you to support the spring sports program. Most of the activity takes place after school, and there are both boys and girls programs going on this spring. Get out and give them a cheer. You know they will appreciate it. Northern Mini Bowmen News Rain, sleet, snow and even some sunshine didn't hamper the 90 archers who shot the Northern Illini Bowmen's Slush Shoot last Sunday. The high score of the shoot was Jim Burgan's 524 out of a possible 560. Jim is from Illinois Conservation Archery Club of Lake Villa. Jean Bird of NIB shot the high women's score of 442. Both shooters use sights on their bows and use release mechanisms for releasing the string. Highest barebow score was shot by Mike Stein of Fox Valley Archery Club of Cary; his score was 448. Peter Lips of ICA was high Youth with a 330 and Billy Lenhardy, Jr. of Fox Valley shot 234 for high Club. Shirley Heffernan of NIB scored the highest barebow score for women with a 206. "Trophies for first place were taken by the following archers in their respective classes: Bob Mitchell of Chicago, Dave Smith of Richmond, Tom and Patricia Johnson of North West archers, Bruce Post, Beal Laub, Pat Dietze, Bill Peckham, Peter Hall and Jean Mitchell of Chicago, Urban Lindquist and Ray Wiltzen of Fox Valley and Linda Carlson . of ICA; from NIB were: 1st to Harv Eady, Joe Raven, Ron Sorenson, Shirl Heffernan and Earl Bird.

April 6th is the first Club Shoot of the season. All in­ terested archers are invited to shoot with the club members or just to observe field archery. The Northern Illini Bowmen outdoor range is just a mile west of McHenry on Draper road. SUIT SEEKS TO REMOVE SUPERVISORS (Continued from page 1) Dean is also supervisor of McHenry township. Starr serves as a member of the County board and is also supervisor for Algonquin township. The suits contend that based on Attorney General William J. Scott's opinion handed down March 17, 1975, " the office of township supervisor and county board member are in­ compatible." The complaints allege that Dean and Starr have held office as township supervisors since Sept. 5, 1974, and since that time "have usurped and still usurp to the damage of said people of the State of Illinois and against the peace and dignity thereof." Cowlin states in the suit that on Nov. 5, 1974, Dean and Starr, having been duly elected, assumed the office of County board members. The complaint asks that Dean and Starr answer to the people and show by what warrant or claim they hold and execute the franchise and office of township supervisors. The suit further asks that the two men be "ousted and expelled by judgment of the court from the franchise and office" of township supervisors. Dean had told the Plain- dealer late last week that he was assured there would be legislation in the hopper to allow township supervisors to complete their term and then make a decision as to which office they wish to hold.

EDITH NELSON Edith Nelson, 70, of Spring Grove, died March 31 in the MUSIN" AND MEANDERIN" (Continued from pag el) In his first visit to the county, Dr. Thomas brought between twenty-five and thirty mem­ bers of the Chicago Civic or­ chestra to McHenry. These young musicians, for the most part, are highly talented college and university students, some of whom are preparing for membership in the Chicago Symphony. The music was classical, which made the interest and attention showed by such a large crowd all the more surprising. Dr. Thomas in­ troduced a demonstration of the various instruments and showed their relationship to each other. During the last twenty-five minutes of the concert, in­ dividual members circulated among the young people to answer questions. West campus gymnasium was filled with 2,500 students for the morning concert. Another 2,400 attended a repeat performance that afternoon. All students attending fifth through eighth grades in District 15 had the opportunity to hear the program. In ad­ dition, young people were present from Montini, St. Mary's in Woodstock, Wood­ stock Public, Fox River Grove, R i c h m o n d , H a r r i s o n , Hawthorne and Evergreen schools in the Union area, Alden-Hebron and some high school students. Dr. Thomas has left the county temporarily, but the memory of his really wor­ thwhile contribution remains. He will return during the week of Sept 15. K.A.F.

You've probably guessed, it was Henry VIII (1509-47). Over the centuries many monarchs debased the coinage of the land in order to finance wars or indulge their own standard of living, but few could have outdone Henry VIII. In his machinations to support his lavish existence, he de­ based the English coin­ age to a new low point, cut­ ting the gold coin in fine­ ness and reducing silver content in coins to less than one-third of their original precious metal content. Henry reduced the silver shilling to about 18%silver and 82% copper and it was this very coin that gave rise to the unflattering nick­ name. The coin had Herny's portrait on it but full face position rather than in profile as was more often the case. Quite naturally, in this full face pose his nose was the high spot on the coin . . . it took no time at all for the very thin silver coating he had instigated, to wear right through to the copper . . . hence "Old Coppernose." Aside from metal com­ position of a coin, this is an example of why port­ raits in the design are done profile . . . the full face pose is more difficult in achieving the likeness and the nose, necessarily in high relief, quickly wears down imparing the image.
