V McHENRY 385-0144 Migratory Game Bird Hunting Regulations For Fall Proposed Honored At All County Banquet Preliminary hunting regulations for ducks, geese, and other migratory game birds next fall were proposed on March 10. 1977. by the In­ terior Department's US Fish and Wildlife Service <s The proposal included seasons, daily bag limits, and shooting hours for certain species. No major changes from "last year's rules are proposed Public comments are invited through May 18. 1977. They should be addressed to the Director. I S Fish and Wildlife Service. Washington. DC. 20240. Two public hearings on the proposals will be held in the Auditorium of the General Services Administration Building, F Street between 18th and M9th Streets. N.W.. Washington. D C., the first on June 21. 1977. at 9 a.m. and the second on Aug. 2. 1977, at 9a.m. Persons wishing to participate should notify the service by writing to the Director or calling 202-343-8827. Those wishing to have statements in the record should file them in writing before or immediately after each hearing These steps are again being taken to insure that the public has ample op­ portunity to review and com­ ment on the proposals. Shooting Hours Same No changes are proposed in shooting hours for next year They are proposed as one-half hour before sunrise until sunset A detailed discussion of shooting before sunrise is in­ cluded in the proposal Essentially, it asserts that studies show light at that time of day is enough for a person to read -by. so it is sufficient for hunting Further, hunting that takes place during this period poses no discernible threat to the populations being hunted including those accorded special protection Hunting season framework dates lor ducks and geese are proposed to be generally the same as last year: from Oct. 1. 1977. to Jan 20. 1978. for the Atlantic and Mississippi EARL WALSH This week started with the McHenry County high school basketball awards banquet in the dining hall at Marian Central in Woodstock. As you will see elsewhere on the sports page, McHenry high had three players honored: Brian Miller. Bill Hurches and Al Reinboldt. It was a jolly crowd of clean cut players, proud coaches and prouder parents. Paul Judson. one of the names that made Hebron famous, was the speaker of the evening and gave us some insights on his coach, the late Russ Ahearn. Paul told that Ahearn never hollered at his players, seldom had them scrimmage since there weren't any boys to give them a workout, and wasn't at all surprised when they won the state title He expected them to win. A highlight of the evening was the appearance of Toney Roskie. who will soon be in­ ducted into the basketball hall of fame as a player and coach. Everybody knows that Toney was the greatest in making men out of boys. Perhaps Paul Judson told it all when he told of playing on grade school teams vs. Todd school when Roskie was coach and character builder at the famous school. Paul said the Hebron youths received the same en­ couragement from Toney as he gave his own team. As the saying goes. "You don't hardly find those kind no more". Dick Rabbitt joined other writers from county newspapers in planning and making the banquet a success Now Dick can go back to coaching baseball and worrying about the weather.

Better Had our snow tires taken off last week and keep wondering if it was the right thing to do. Each season brings problems. Our lawn will soon have to be .raked. The first part of the week made one think the Easter bunny might have to lay an egg in a snow bank. The ever glorious Easter Sunday looms on the horizon, a day when hearts are lighter than they have been in forty days and forty nights. Easter used to be a time to look at ladies' hats, especially the ones with fruit baskets and big feathers on them. Not so many hats these days and we miss them They were always good for a laugh So -- put on your Sunday best, stride forth with chin up, and enjoy a Happy Easter with kindness in your heart and awareness of your blessings. Comment On Sports OLYMPICS * * < By Pete Fritchie WASHINGTON, D. C-- The recommendations of the presidential Olympic Commis­ sion, if followed, could put America back on the path to supremacy at the four-year games in the view of some sports experts. The commission would have Congress pass new legis­ lation restructuring athletic sports programming, eliminat­ ing authority and jurisdictional rows and broadening federal financing of amateur sports development. Under the new governing framework, within the general format of the U.S. Olumpic Committee, each sports would have its own development or­ ganization run by sports greats in that sport. President Carter is expect­ ed to favor the report. Con­ gress will have to legislate the proposals into law and provide the needs funds, however. Those who have been cha­ grined at the U.S. perform­ ance in recent years, both in the selection and training of competitors, and in the idealis­ tic no-pay requirement (remu­ neration will be possible un­ der the new system) should urge their Senators and Con­ gressmen to support the com­ mission's proposals. To get maximum volume when beating egg whites, be sure they are room tempera­ ture and beat in a glass or metal bowl.

A possible change is proposed ^for wood duck hunting in the Southeastern I'nited States because of a doubling of the population from 2 to 4 million birds since the late 1960's Consideration will be given to extending the snow goose /eason in the Atlantic Flyway hu49J7 from :H) days to 50 days, provided that breeding ground conditions are favorable The severe winter of 1977 caused an undetermined loss of Atlantic brant -a sea goose - along the east coast No changes will be proposed until population counts and breeding ground surveys are completed this summer The service will also consider a request by the North A m e r i c a n Falco n e r s association to extend the season for taking migratory game birds by falconrv. Congratulations are in order to Brian Miller, Bill Hurckes and Al Reinboldt for their selection to the All County Basketball team. Miller was honored with a first team berth, Hurckes was placed on the second team, and Al Reinboldt, who missed the last 8 games was given Honorable Mention. Miller and Hurckes were awarded plaques for the occasion, and Reinboldt received a certificate for Honorable Mention. Again it was an event that the boys honored will always remember, and S.I.H. was at his best as the M.C. for the evening. The granddad of County sportswriters with his Irish wit. kept the crowd in stitches with his off the cuff remarks, and as usual kept the progranron an even keel. 1 had the honor to introduce the main speaker of the evening. Paul Judson, former Hebron great, and at present baseball coach at Dundee. Paul, like his former teammates are in the limelight these days as they are celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the win over Quincy in the State Finals back in 1952. He told of his early years in Hebron, when he and twin brother Phil shot baskets at the early age of 6. He then went on to give the story of the "Green Giants" throughout his high school career. At one time the Judson twins were thinking of going to Barrington, but along came Russ^hearnfo coach, and the boys changed their mind. Hebronwill be ever grateful for that decision. He remarked when Coach Ahearn came to Hebron he stated, "We want to win more games each year, and we want to win more games in the state tourney than the year before". The Hebron team had one great advantage back in 1952. They did not belong to any conference, therefore thev could schedule many teams, and not be confined to a so- called round robin conference schedule. They played only six home games that year, and most of their home games were against county rivals such as Woodstock, McHenry, and Crystal Lake. An amusing remark that brought lifted eyebrows from the players in attendance, was when Paul stated, "Any time w e scored 50 points before halftime, we were told you w ill come out for the rest of the game". If the team had not scored 50 by halftime. the next step is when they hit the 65 pt mark. Judson then went on to comment, "It was hard not to score, but sometimes the team missed a layup, or an easy shot, just so we could stay in the game". In his message he stressed studies for the boys in attendance. "There is more than just athletics in your life", he mentioned, "get a good education and vow to do your best in anything you undertake". An honored guest was Tony Roskie, longtime coach and official. Tony will be one of the very few gentlemen in the state to be honored April 30 at I.S.U. in Normal , 111. Tony will enter the Illinois Prep Hall of Fame not only as a Coach but also as a player. This is quite an honor for an old friend, and I am sure that all of you fans who know Tony, wish him the best of luck, and likewise are pleased with his recognition as a player and coach. Weather has played havoc with the spring sports program at McHenry high. Rain and fog cancelled baseball games on Saturday and Monday. Gary Gray's tennis matches likewise have been called off due to weather conditions. With the spring season so short, it is imperative that games and matches be played, but we can only hope for the best, and one of these days it will be nice, and sunny and warm, and the winter will be forgotten at that time. Area Players Advance In Tournament Play The winterlong tennis tournament at The Racket club is winding down to a con­ clusion. with several prominent area players still alive in the single elimination tournament. Play is broken down into twelve mini-tournaments, with A'. B'. and C' classifications, depending on skill, being conducted There are three divisions in each of Men's singles, Women's singles. Men's doubles, and Women's doubles. In a recent Men's singles A' match. Jack Thomas of McHenry humbled Bob Beers, Crystal Lake, 6-1, 6-4, to ad­ vance to the semifinal round. In Men's singles 'C' com­ petition. Ed Cepulis, McHenry, edged Joe Milianta of Car- pentersville 6-4, 9-7, while McHenry's Tom Hanahan lost his 'C match to Carl Morton of Elgin 6-1, 6-1. In Women's 'A' play, Cathy Bolger of McHenry rolled over Margaret Steinam of Wood stock 6-4, 6-2, while Wonder Lake's Eleanor Hertrich lost her match to Joan Melahn of Crystal Lake 6-4, 7-6.

Being unable to use the many group pictures sent in, a decision was made to discontinue all league groups except cham­ pionship teams. Pictures taken by our staff photographers 6f athletes on the high school level will be selected as to their importance. Individual pictures of various sports will be appraised as to their newsworthy value and available space. It was a flood of group pictures last year that made this decision by the management necessary. 5UG6Y A ALONC Uoull wolf down our delectable PIZZA - STARRING JODIE FOSTER MUSIC BY PAUL WILLIAMS lxc*tl*nt acting!
