By Dick Robbitt This being written prior to the Super-Sectional battles throughout the state, it will be interesting to see which of the teams survive to get to the Elite Eight. There are some mighty good games on tap, and with no cut favorite the title is literally up for grabs among all fifteen teams. Manley of Chicago qualified last week, and has the advantage of super scouting of the Quincy vs. Catholic game. Some local interest of note, Tom Carl Asst. Principal at East Campus and former A.P. at Lockport is pulling for the "Porters". Another old friend, called last week and is pulling for his Alma Mater. Gene Dobbyns, a former resident of Quincy is hoping the Blue Devils go all the way. Ken Ludwig's hometown Effingham is still in the running at this time. Ken is hoping to see the hometown boys play this afternoon in Champaign. / The Class A tourney last week didn't show too much offensive punch during the Saturday games. Playing before a crowd of 12,000 may have had something to do with it, or good defense had to be a factor. Anyway it was a great tournament for the smaller schools. The I.H.S.A. has refused to consider a third class for the near future. Principals of those schools in the 750 to 2,000 enrollment are going to have to make a move if they want this to happen in the near future, otherwise the gap is going to become greater than it is at the present time. A note from Shawnee Junior College Basketball coach Jim Dumas on a former Warrior, Mary Mayer, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Mayer, a freshman at the school. The former Warrior missed 12 games due to injuries, but averaged over five rebounds per game. He averaged 7 points per game and had a 49 percent shooting average from the field. He was 4th in rebounding, shot 60 percent from the charity stripe, and scored 100 points for the season. Coach DUmas went on to say that Mark had a good attitude, and Was a hard worker. It looks as if the 6'8" former Warrior has a nice future ahead of him in college circles. A lot of activity is taking place in Buckner Gym every afternoon. Between the baseball, tennis and track teams of the boys, along with track, softball, and badminton of the girls, sometimes it is not safe to step in the gym. Next week we hope to give you a rundown on all the teams that will be engaged in spring sports. The baseball opener is scheduled for March 31st, and Twig Miller has promised the field will be ready. If Gary Gray and his tennis team can keep the snow and water off the tennis courts, they will open at the same time. Don Seaton has his girls track team out jogging every afternoon, after warmups in the gym, and they too open their season in the near future. Don't forget the McHenry High Booster Club's Pancake Breakfast on Sunday, April 1, at West Campus. It is for a good cause, and they will appreciate your support in this fund raising event. Mark it down on your calendar right away, so you won't forget. Congratulations to Tim Zeller on being selected Mr. Basketball. The young lad has picked up quite a few honors after the basketball season. Tim was the mainstay of the Warriors the past season. Another bouquet to an old friend John Bolton, former golf pro at Chapel Hill. The genial John is opening a new business in McHenry next week, and it is not true that he quit the golf ranks because he could not beat the "old lefthander". MITCHELL BIIICK-OLDS 903 N.

Parents can sign their children up for camp at the Lake Region YMCA, located at 7315 South Route 31 between 8 a.m. and 9:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. "Last year, over 1,200,000 kids went to YMCA camps throughout the United States, and thousands more attended Y camps around the world," Baaske said. In the Lake Region area alone, 885 were enrolled in the Y day camps ~ a new record. Among the reasons for the continued popularity of YMCA camps, Baaske cited safety as the most important among parents and then camping provides any number of learning experiences. "Among the lessons to be learned are a new awareness of the natural world, the obvious skills in sports and crafts, the creative use of leisure time, swim and tennis lessons, the self-reliance that comes from doing things for oneself, and the ability to cooperate that results from being with others," Baaske said. Baaske urged that parents wishing more information on the Y's summer camp program should drop by the Y or call for information.
