PAGE 4 • PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 12.1W3 ""EARL WALSH-- So I Hear Came Saturday night and a decision to attend the high school basketball game. So we headed the gas buggy toward West Campus to watch our Warriors for the first time this year. As we came to the door of the balcony press section, Dick Rabbit opened his eyes in disbelief. Wilbert Hecht, the man who covers the waterfront, was also on the welcoming committee. We saw the Warriors in what must have been one of their not better games. The home boys gave it all they had, but must have left their best efforts on the floor in their Friday night game at Crystal Lake South. The visiting Fremd five didn't show much to make us rave about, but it was enough to tuck away a victory in the record book Both teams had too many tur­ novers. Possession is the name of the game. - We saw Terry Reilly, Ken Ludwig's assistant, on the benqh and found myself recalling the days when his sharp6hooting earned him the name "Radar". Looking at the game program, our eyes hit upon the Plaindealer ad picturing Mike Lamb, Wayne Gaylord and Dick Rabbitt--a stalwart sports staff. --And fit subjects for rogues gallery. As usual, the Saturday night game did not draw a large crowd. What puzzled me was the lack of noise from the cheering section. Some things never change. The band played on-- the cheerleaders were cute-- the Pom Pon girls put a kick in their performance -- coaches were on their feet often -- telling the officials a thing or two --. The Warriors have speed and desire. They could use a 7-foot center for rebounding. Who couldn't? A double foul was called. Can't remember when I saw that call the last time. -- And the jump ball was back. Our dear editor says she could use more old time pictures. Since she has designated me as her assistant in the old time department, please send in some pictures you have put away. You will get them back. If you don't think McHenry has changed, just think that the area dubbed "Mortgage Hill'" (Maple Ave. and Grand Ave. area) was once a great place to hunt rabbits and pheasants. I ' Another thought: There were many row boats on Fox River in the summer months and fishing was good. Way Back Then -- snow was not removed from the streets. There were no snow blowers. As I have told you in the past, George Meyers hitched a horse to a V-shpaed wooden snow plow to clear the sidewalks early in the morning. "Peggy" Feltz, with 2-wheel cart, broom, shovel, and dog for his mascot, constituted the entire street department in McHenry. When thick ice formed on the street in the Main St. business area, "Peggy" took a lot of ribbing for not clearing the street. His reply was, "Let the Man who put it there take it away" County Board Organization The government will provide a fftee headstone or grave marker for tire deceased veteran (but not dependents). If the veteran is buried in a private cemetery, the cost of placing it there must be borne by the applicant. The Veterans Ad­ ministration will pay up to $59 toward the price of a non-government headstone, if that is preferred. The McHenry County board welcomes new members as it organizes following the 1982 elections and official swearing-in of all members.

Jan. 15 is the deadline for farmers to file their 1982 estimated income tax declarations with the Illinois Department of Revenue. Farmers can bypass the Jan. 15 deadline, however, by filing a state income tax return, ILL-1040, and paying all tax due by March 1, 1983. Under the state Income Tax act, fanners have two choices for meeting their state income tax responsibility. 1 - They may file an estimated tax declaration (111-1040 ES) and pay their estimated tax for 1962 by Jan. 15, and then reconcile their tax account when they file their ILL-1040 by the regular April 15 deadline; or, 2 - Farmers may forego the estimated tax payment by filing an 111- 1040 by March l and paying the total tax due by that date. Fanners who choose to satisfy their tax obligation by filing the 111-1040 by the March 1 deadline must be sure to mark the box on the form designated for farmers. Failure to mark#this box could result in a penalty being assessed. By state statute, farmers are in­ dividuals who derive at least two- thirds of their total gross income for that tax year from farming.

With the "cough and cold" season in high gear, it's a good idea to take a long hard look at your medicine cabinet.

Fevers from a cold or bout with flu tend to dry out skin, leaving painful chapped lips and a raw red nose.
