With friends like that In. our school days, we were taught about the Monroe Doctrine. Seems there was £ fsomething about not meedling with foreign affairs. Old fashioned -- but not so Hdumb. ? t Then we were taught the law of supply and demand. That wasn't so bad until a lot of regulations came along. Every time we watch a basketball game* we get disturbed with all this modern day whistle tootin'. Memory goes back to the days when the game was rough and tough with very low scores. Then they did away with the center jump after every basket. The game speeded up and more scoring resulted. That was a good change. Came a time when the name of the game was clever passing and pivoting away from a defender. That, was good to watch. Then came the run and shoot style with high scores and you had to believe that the best defense was a strong offense. This year we have seen our Warrior team not only run, but please the fans with dazzling passes. There was a time when a guard could jump high to block a pass or a shot and have no fear of the whistle if he touched the ball. Now it's a foul. Players today make those one-hand shots swish through the nets. In the old days a coach would put you on the bench if you got fancy and didn't use both hands when shooting. In our opinion there is too much time taken in marching from one end of the floor to the other for those numerous free throws. No. We wouldn't want to see the game go back to football on the hard court. Just hit a happy medium so a little slap on the wrist wouldn't become so sinful. Listening to TV commercials gives us the inadequate feeling that we have been using the wrong hair tonic, headache pills, shaver, mouthwash, tooth paste and dog food (when we had a dog). --And we are horror stricken to suspect that our coffee isn't mountain grown. In reading a book "The Greatest Sports Stories", we learn that a field goal in foot ball at one time counted for five points. They were all drop kicks.

ROUTE 120 MCHENRY, ILL Warhawks Snap Streak By Dick Rabbitt The McHenry High Warriors winning streak was snapped at 15 last Friday night as they lost to the North Chicago Warhawks 74 to 64 at North Chicago. The loss put the Warriors into a four way tie for the North Suburban lead with North * Chicago, Zion Benton and Libertyville all with 6 and 1 records. Great defense and balanced scoring for the North Chicago team paced them to victory. The Warhawks had four men in double figures led by Terry Barrett with 17. The game started out slow, with Koerber's basket at the 7:00 mark opening the scoring. Clinkscales tied it up seconds later. Then the Warhawk machine began to roll and they broke away to a 8 tp 2 lead midway in the period. The Warriors fought back and showed the huge crowd on hand some fine shooting of their own. With Decker, Reilly, Lund, Koerber and two baskets by Tom Ludwig the Warriors forged out ahead 14 to 8 and the local fans were in an uproar. The Warhawks struggled back and Ludwig's basket at the buzzer put the Warriors ahead n 16 to 13. In thfe opening minutes of the seconds period the Warhawks ran off ten unan swered points to take a 23 to 16 lead before Lund and Koerber got the Warriors back on track. The teams continued to ex change baskets, until in the closing minutes two quick baskets by North Chicago put them ahead 39 to 35 at the in termission. DISASTER STRIKES WARRIORS In the third period the Warriors abandoned their zone press, and the Warhawks began to find man open underneath as they continued to roll. Reilly's basket at the 5:00 mark and Hertel's three point lay two minutes later was the only scoring for the Warriors during the period as they were out- scored 17 to 5 and trailed 56 to 40 going into the final period. In the final period the Warriors came back to look like a ball team, but the closest they could widdle the score was 61 to 54 midway in the period. North Chicago hung on to win 74 to 64. It was quite evident that the Warriors were a little tight. The huge crowd which packed the gym, a little loose officiating, a tenacious defense by the* Warhawks, sensational outside shooting by the Warhawks, plus the rebounding of Yarbrough and Barrett led to the Warrior defeat. The Warriors didn't play a bad ball game, it was not up to their usual pin point passing and shooting, but credit must be given to the Warhawks for their defensive play and fine shooting.

In playing their best game of the year the young Warriors literally ran the young Warhawks right out of the North Chicago gym Friday night. Jumping off to a 19 to 10 s first period lead, the young lads continued to put the pressure on the startled Warhawks and led at halftime 36 to 14. Cooling off a bit in the last half, the sophs hands, then confessed that we never caught a bass.
