In the last half the scoring was accomplished by DiBona, one of the brothers who made a name for himself in football last fall, who scored a pair of baskets to keep his mates in the game. Schreiner and Wegener each scored field goals for McHenry, bringing their total to three for the evening, but Wegener and Patzke added gratis shots to pick up the necessary one-point margin to win the game. The contest was closely played throughout, Marengo using a blanket defense around the ring that kept short shots few and far between. This naturally makes a low scoring game as McCracken used a slowbreaking offense in the last half in order to draw out the defense. The Ponies had another thriller which McHenry also won by one point, 12-11.

It was surely a tough One to lose inasmuch as the locals were out in front at the half 15-8. In every other stage of the game our MAACS showed their superiority, but they just couldn't sink the old basket in the way they are accustomed. Each team scored eleven baskets, but the Wauconda boys had two more attempts at freethrows and made them good, gaining their two-point margin in this manner. Each team missed three free tosses. In the last half the All-Stars weren't charged with a single foul, while McHenry was penalized seven times in this period and f»ve points were scored against them as the result. From this data one might suppose that the McHenry lads were roughing it up, but it wasn't that kind of a game. On the contrary the home boys were just playing: their old do-or-die game and forced Wauoonda to the utmost to win the game. The Lake County boys rushed out to a 5-0 lead before McHenry managed to sink a free throw, and then another one to make the score 5-2. In the second quarter activities commenced along our front line and our sharpshooters rung up enough baskets to bring the count to 15 to 8, the visitors scoring two points In that era. Third quarter found the locals clinging desperately to a three-point lead, which soon faded away, and from then on it was see-saw to the finish. With a minute to go Cote sunk a long shot to put Wauconda in the lead and a pair of freethrows increased the margin to four points. McHenry just captured a short shot and were working the ball down the floor for another attempt when-the final gun sounded. This leaves the standing between these two teams on an even basis, and Managers Freund and Kirwan are already trying to hook up their schedules so that a return game may be worked in ahead of the tournaments. This game will most likely be played at Wauconda, sometime within the next two weeks. Watch for the date. The McHenry Ponies had an easy time of it with the remainder of the Wauconda lights, who sadly missed the presence of Anders and Rosier. Th£ Ponies took advantage of this weak opposition to develop their passing game and worked one of the best games I have seen so far, winning 26 to 8. Everyone of the members on the little squad broke into the scoring with a field goal, Harrison and Thorsell getting theirs though in the game but a few minutes. Harrison also got three fouls hooked onto himself in three minutes which is some kind of a record. Conway led the point gathering with an even dozen McHenry's Ponies are out after an impressive record this year after a mediocre start. All unexpected they have gone out and won three out of their last four games and this spurt has brought their record up to where it is beginning to look respectable.
