EARL WALSH So I Hear SPORTS EDITORJ Where is the United Nations while Uncle Sam is trying to police the world? The season is here for re-runs on TV. Some we haven't seen before. And once around is too much-far some of those duds. We didn't know there were any of those old fashioned girls left. Of course, we hadn't looked. Now we get into conversation with a grand young married gal who is getting close to a Blessed Event. Says she isn't going back to work after her first child is born. Not that there would be anything wrong or unusual about it if she did want to go back to her job. But, this sweet gal says in all sincerity that she wants to have three or four children and be a housewife. We call her kind a homemaker. As Georgie Gobel would say - "You can't hardly find her kind no more. Had just finished a full meal at that "German Restaurant" when our nice young waitress came smiling to our table and asked if we would like some apple s-t-roo-d-u-1. Didn't even know that Mama Gasthaus Lorelei had seen us. We might not know how to order it, but it was certainly good eatin'. Dick Rabbitt sends a note with his reports that sports news is running out in high school. It is that time of year. But, Dick should welcome a rest. He has given the school sports great coverage all through the school year. Manager Frank Robinson was a wild man Saturday night U)e Will; • Clean Condenser Fins • Pressure Check System • Adjust Belts • Inspect For Leaks • Partial Charge For Freon ( IF NEEDED ) PARTS & FREON EXTRA $10.00 • n PLUS TAX OFFER GOOD FOR THE MONTH OF MAY 1112 NORTH FRONT STREET McHENRY Ph. 385-6000 in the Cleveland-White Sox game. Maybe he had a point to avgue. Maybe the umpire said something to infuriate him. And maybe Frank said something to bring on the old heave-ho out of the game. But, when Frank lost all reason and shoved the ump back on his heels, he committed a No-No. Even Lippy Leo Durocher knew better than to push an ump. Durocher might "ac­ cidentally" step on an umpire's foot or "accidentally" kick some dirt on his shoes. But, shove. Not Leo! Nobody can fault Carlos May's batting average this year. We just wonder how much higher it would be if he didn't take the first ball every time he goes up to bat. Pitchers know he will take it so fire a fast ball right down the pike and get ahead of motionless Carlos. With Bart and Marie Yegge, we drove down to Dixon Sunday to pay respects to the deceased Arnold Lund (Larry's Dad) and family. Now, there was a man. He had great foresight, an analytical mind and the drive to handle a big job in the newspaper world. 'Twas quite a few years ago that we last saw Dixon. Came home that way from Peoria just to say "Hello". We didn't want to take a lot of time from a busy man's schedule. But, he in­ sisted on showing us the entire newspaper plant and took the time to explain various phases of operation. Arnold Lund set a fast pace. He went like sixty and died at 66. We didn't see him often, but counted him as a friend. Warriors Lose To Harrington By Dick Rabbitt P Coach Wally Scott will take two of his track squad mem­ bers to Charleston this weekend for the State Finals. John Mclnerney and George Hansen both qualified last Friday night at Rockford. The Warriors finished seventh in the sixteen team district by scoring 14 points. Mclnerney qualififed in both the mile and two mile runs. His time for the two mile was 9:27.5 and in the mile 4:22.2, both new school records. Hansen finished third in the pole vault with a height of thirteen feet, six inches. The Warriors while only sending two to the state finals, did a remarkable job, as many school records were broken. Rockford East, the pre meet favorite, won the meet easily by scoring 74 points. Jerry Holloway of Rockford East, ram the fastest 440 yard dash in Illinois history, when he was timed in 47.2. Only state records can be met in the state finals, so young Holloway will have to do it all over again this weekend in Charleston. In Regional By Dick Rabbitt The Broncos of Barrington eliminated the Warrior Baseball Team from state play Saturday afternoon when they came from behind to win 8 to 3. The Warriors opened the scoring in the bottom of the third with a walk, hit, and three Barrington errors to grab a 3 to 0 lead. They nursed this lead until the top of the sixth when the roof fell in on them. Barrington sent 12 men to the plate in this inning and scored 8 runs. The Warriors only managed 2 hits off Rob Simond Barrington's ace llefthander. Dave Wickenkamp was the losing pitcher. Last Wednesday the Warriors defeated Elgin 6 to 4 behind Bill Jaskowiak, and on Thursday they defeated Dundee in a North Suburban Conference game 9 to 3 behind Tommy Ludwig. The Warriors season record to date is 18 wins and 5 losses.

She had ideas of stopping at Stan Hack's .restaurant. Of course, she is a great Cub fan. And Stan Hack was a great third baseman for her Cubs a few years back. Lynn Lund (another Cub stalwart) assured Marie that Hack's was a good place to eat. With great anxiety we pulled up to the place only to read a sign "Closed Sundays."

FORMAL WEAR RENTAL for ALL OCCASIONS The Varsity club of Marian Central Catholic high school has initiated an intramural volleyball program with varsity athletes and other in­ terested students and faculty organizing a tournament that includes nineteen teams and a total of 160 students. The captains and club members geared the tour­ nament to involve all types of students by restricting the composition of the team. No more than four varsity players or fewer than two females could be on the team. "This is an attempt to equalize the teams so that there will not be one team that clearly dominates or intimidates the other teams," stated Varsity club moderator, Dom Ric- cordino. There were two cham­ pionship brackets and a con­ solation bracket for teams that lost their first round games. This insured all teams at least two sets of competitions, and the championship team will receive monogrammed shirts for their efforts. The intramural program will conclude this year by spon­ soring a 16" softball tour­ nament. Plans are being made to expand this program next year to include basketball and possibly field hockey.
