Early this summer Jim £Wilkey announced to the family that his brother Dave had taught him a new trick on water skis. This 'was no great surprise, since he first began skiing at 5 and slolomed at 7. When the family went out to iwatch, the surprise was that he didn't have any skis at all! At 38 MPA Jim's feet alone support his {weight on the surface. Kevin Weiss, a neighbor now skiing professionally at Sea World near JICleveland, Ohio, says Jim is the youngest barefooter he and other professionals have heard of. Jim's €next goal is to ski barefoot on one foot like his brother Dave. \ (STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD) / kitpimlfpiui) OUR RINSE N VAC--UM mm Msy-to-UM hot water i carprt dMming nadiiiM c«rp«t fitwr* witfc Hot lifts ill dirt, to ttM HU™ Local mm AsjaHP*' Unique Sports Conference , FRESH )D0R-FREE! >CMOT> , Rent tor only t HRS.. • IMIN.)

Simile: As flat as a newspaper reporter with­ out news. Dog owners must get terribly confused listening to all the dog-food commercials. If your dog isn't happy, you« may be feeding him the wrong food while he longs for a bite of brand X. As a boy, we always had a dog, but never ran into those troubles. He ate the scraps from the table after every meal and thrived on the diet. Read John Busscher's report on the Club Championship at McHenry Country Club and you will see the "old boys", Ed Buss and Art Jackson, have their work cut out for them this year. •tilt# * the ' Redettats, the younger fellows are coming. ""CwCt be there next Sunday, but wont miss the count down the following week. That is when the going gets tough. ^Sterns a little early. However, high school football isn't many bounces away. Drove past McCracken Field this week and saw the old press box still standing in all its majesty. Tommy Thomas, former pint-size guard for McHenry High, sends his annual letter from Woodstock. He is getting itchy for his favorite sport to start. Met "the Doc" Edingers at Helen (Bolger) Green's wake. The ever popular "Doc" has planned for several years to come to McHenry for a tour of the City Hall and other places - - then have lunch. Reminded him that I am no longer an occupant of the City Hall, but probably could arrange a tour. What I didn't say is that we had better get going or one of us will be going to the other's wake and miss the tour. Before someone says "Why don't you say something about those Cubs?" we will say it. Those Cubs are great! Bill Veeck would like to know what turned 'em around. Somebody said the more refined Cubs double their pleasure by chewing gum while the While Sox Chaw tobaccy. At least the Sox have found out what they need for next year. And it isn't gum. AN OBSERVATION: Two things people enjoy. Starting a bonfire. Using the garden hose. Heard a weather report that warned of a big storm nearing Kansas City. Wonder if they didn't mean the Republican convention. This one won't be all peanut butter and jelly like the Democrats staged. Watch your TV for the Illinois delegation and McHenry in particular. Just look for the best looking blond in the hall and you will see our sports typesetter, Jo Ann Hutchinson. We told her to wave.

A slip of the pen and a slip of the mind in doing last week's Divot Dolls call for a correction and an addition to start off this column. A typographical error stated that Char Zwissler had a net 83 in Class B for low net whereas it should have been a 73. Apologies to Char and all the other gals in Class B. In listing all the gals who beat the champ last week, an omission discovered after going to print was the name of Bernice Dolce. Bernice is one of our more up and coming golfers from Wonder Lake and deserves to be mentioned for the fine progress she is making. Apologies to you, Bernice - and Congrats on beating the champ. With this past Tuesday being a non-scheduled-event the gals made up their own foursomes and went out and shot stricUx for fun - Just a little breather before the upcoming Club and Class Championship tour­ nament which will begin this coming Tuesday.

MENS 16" SOFTBALL McHeniy Country Club By John Busscher In the first round of the club championship played at the club on Sunday, Aug. 8, Gary Adams with a fine 71 leads Art Jackson and Ed Buss by one shot. Both with a one over par 72. Tim Martin with a 75 is four shots off the pace. Unless some of the other players shoot better golf it looks like another dog fight down to the wire between Gary, Art and Ed. Defending champion Ted Spengel shot a net 65 to tie with Jay Sayler, Ken Holmes and Emil Lazar after one round of the club Handicap Cham­ pionship. Tom Burke with a net 66 and Ray Rode and Jim Kenton with 67's were close behind. Carl Warthen leads the Senior Club Championship with a net of 65.
