Andy Messersmith sold his strong right arm to the Atlanta Braves for a reported one and three quarter million bucks. If things keep up, we will be watching a bunch of millionaires performing in various sports. A star in any sport should get a handsome salary, but things are getting ridiculous. The guy who likes sports is going to have to plank down a fancy fee to get through the gate. -- And we thought inflation hit an all time high when we read that street sweepers in some city are demanding nineteen thousand a year. Old Timers in McHenry will say "Peggy" Feltz was born forty years too soon.

MCHENRY - 6 ANTIOCH - 1 control the elements on Sunday when a double-header crowd was frozen away. The Cubs looked like bush leaguers in the opener at St. Louis, but people tell us they have done quite well since. Right fielder Reggie Smith may have gone a bit too far in his storm against the umpires on Sunday. Spirit is one thing . An athlete losing his head when thousands of kids are watching is another thing. It is one man's opinion thalt big time newspapers must be short of news when they have to dig up sensational stories of the past, especially when some of the characters are dead and cannot defend themselves. Many new faces loom up in the big league box scores and many of them are south of the border names. Lively ball players come from those parts where the climate is good for baseball through many moons. High school news will cover a lot of space in your sports section this issue. We like it. Especially since Larry Lund says we can have the space, Dick Rabbitt turns it in, and JoAnn Hutchinson now assists our "Little Helen" in setting the type. As long as copy is in on time, the shop bossman (Dick Sagers) takes good care of our needs. There was a time when it wasn't possible to set some of the more difficult statistics that are now a part of it all. Some short stories do not rate by-lines in the newspaper world, but credit high school reports to Dick. Now here is an interesting release from Lewis University located in Lockport, Illinois : In 1775 Paul Revere rode approximately 12 miles from Charlestown to Concord to help our country. In 1976 Dr. Lester Carr, president of Lewis University- hopes to ride 3,500 miles from Saratoga, New York to Sacramento, California with the Great American Horse Race to help our university raise money to match a Lewis University Challenge Grant. We are inviting you to come to Lewis April 14 at 11 a.m. to meet Les and learn why this man is willing to spend 99 days on horseback over the moun­ tains and across the plains and deserts, through fair and foul weather for a university he OrsolinVs •FOOD THAT CREATES CONVERSATION" "since 1921" Prime Rib 7 Days a Week t^xte-nxivc LJtaCian & mcxican Cuisine. i^i/lonclaL/ i <Sfzc.cia[* ROAST PORK Sauerkraut and Dumplfhgs $3.95 ± uncfi rcd om Open 7 Days a Week Remodeled Banque: Facilities Major Credit Cards Accepted PHONE: 815-678-6617 Rte. 12 and 31 - Richmond believes in.

MCHENRY - 5 ELGIN LARKIN - 0 Steve Koerber Selected Mr. Basketball Of '75-'76 By Dick Rabbitt Another honor was accorded Steve Koerber senior forward of the McHenry High Warriors this past season. He was honored by his teammates as Mr. Basketball of the 1975-76 season. The occasion was the annual basketball dinner held at West Campus last Wed­ nesday evening. In a fun filled evening, the basketball squads at all levels were honored along with the cheerleaders and managers, and with the coaches and special guests. Coaches Gray and Wirtz presented freshman numerals and each gave brief remarks on their seasons. Don Bentz and Dogie Althoff presented the coaches and cheerleaders with gifts. Sophomore Gary Gray made a few remarks about his squad, and remarked how the boys showed progress in emotional, physically, mentally, and basketball ability. Coach Ken Ludwig reviewed the past historical season to the delight of the huge crowd in attendance, and told how the Rolling Meadows Wins Triangular Track Meet, MCHS Second The McHenry High thinclads placed second behind Rolling Meadows in a triangular track meet held last week at Rolling Meadows. Rolling Meadows won the meet with 77 pts. to McHenry's 72. Conant was a distance third with 38 pts. Brett Decker was the only double winner for the Warriors as he won the shot with a heave of 50'7" and threw the discus 150'3". Tomorrow the thinclads travel to Zion where they will engage the ZeeBees and Barrington in another triangular meet.

Co-Capt Terry Reilly, Steve Koerber and Tommy Ludwig presented plaques to the coaches, Earl Cooper, George Cadotte and yours truly.

This has been a very suc­ cessful year in athletics for the girls teams at Montini. They started out with a Softball team made up of 19 7th and 8th graders. Paula Hansen was the captain of the team which came in 2nd place in the Fox Valley Conference losing one game to Richmond. For the basketball season we had two teams. Debbie Her- drich was captain of the 8th grade team which came in 5th place and Kathy Sabatka was the captain of the 7th grade team which tied for first place. They lost the play off game which put them in second place. In the Avon Invitational tournament a combination 7th and 8th grade basketball team < came in third place. Three volleyball teams represented Montini this year. Carrie Freund was captain of the 'A' team (all 8th graders) which came in thrid place. Peggy McGee was captain of the 'B' team ( a combination 7th and 8th grade team) which also came in third. Sue Bolger was captain of the 'C' team (combination 6th and 7th graders) which came in 4th place.

The 3 crazy games offered many laughs and a bit of frustration (imagine trying to bowl low score). To sum up the '75 - '76 season, awards went to: "Chokers" for First Place, W. Farrell (256) & G. Boland (199) for High Game, W. Coari (592) & B. Thompson (516) for High Series, S. Blume (142 & A. Boeldt (161) for High Average, and C. Collina ( + 13) & R. Glawe ( + 11) for Most Improved. We will resume play in the fall, so keep Wednesday af­ ternoons open. BYE. K. Lescber The Fox Valley Conference held a double elimination tournament on April 3 for two teams from each school. Both Montini teams did very well. Denise Dixon led the 8th grade team to a third place finish. Jackie Weber was captain of a combination 6th and 7th grade team that went all the way to the championships. In mid-April, 1776, with the long siege of Quebec at an unsuccessful close, pa­ triot leaders in Boston and Philadelphia were yet un­ willing to abandon Canada. Congress sent a diplomat­ ic mission north to seek support from the Canadian people, also began raising troops for a second assault on Quebec.
