For First Place ' The graihmar school basketball league was in action again last Saturday morning at the high school with added interest shown as the program moves along. With Father John McGowan taking an active lead, many others (as mentioned in last week's issue) have taken interest in the program. Cooperation seems to be the keynote in the commendable plan. ^ Well-Played Burton's Bridge w6n a wellughes.

And *he is giving time and effort each Saturday morning to teach the grammer school league fundamentals and a few tricks of the game. It's Warren here Friday night. It's Grayslake there Saturday night. The Grayslake game is not a conference match, but should be a good one to watch.

You can see their box scores this weak and look for mora. There has been some kidding about JohsAurg boys putting the J. V. team over. More truth than poetry.

Micbelsen FG FT PF I:. d i Hft 1' By Gil Mercure /Hi" The McHenry wrestling team traveled to Palatine on Monday night of last week and downed a big Palatine team by scoring a 29-23 victory over them. The Warriors got off to a bad start by having to forfeit the '165 weight class, then losing the first match of the night, but after that they went to town. Stromstead, McDermott, Green, and Hughes right down the line, came through \tfith wins for McHenry. Then Don Dowe of McHenry, wrestling a very close match which could have gone either way, lost his match when his opponent received a poinj, for riding time. McHenry Far Ahead 1M At this halfway point of the match, the Warriors were far ahead of a fading Palatine team. Then Palatine started tightening the gap by taking the next match, but McHenry couldn't be defied. They won the next match and tied one when Mercure and Trendler showed them that they couldn't be beaten. McHenry lost the next match, but came back strong to finish and win the match when Bob Krickl of Mcflenry won his fifth consecutive match.

LibertyvHle's cagers out* lasted McHenry in this one for a 73-64 win. This gan# was about as dole a coiitest for three quarters as you could hope to see. Then came the fourth quarter in which time the. visitors outscorfd the home boys 26 to 17. $ So close was this one that .He Warriors trailed by one point at the end of the first quarter, led by one point at the half and were tied at the three-quarter mark. ^ -- Free Throws Win It -i A look at" the box score tiHs us that each team dropped In 23 baskets. Looking across the line shows that the Warriors committed 26 fouls against 19 for Libertyville. And from that free throw line came the 9-point margin of victory--the winners getting 27 points against 18 for McHenry on free tosses. A little fellow, Jim Pinkstoff, showed greased lighting speed and whirled around to sink 25 points for the winners. John Bolger and Stan Aim led the first half scoring for McHenry, and, true to form, Ron Ford picked up the sdortng In the last half. •Twould seem like 64 points might win a basketball game. Maybe the boys gave away toe many points. Wis mt ATI LibertyviJIe Qraham Kajt, Joe Ray Larry Ray Pinkstoff Engelbre(8lt Wilson Bruce Totals FG 5 • i .

American Legion League Standings Team Burton's Bridge Johnsburg --~ St. Mary St. Patrick Junior High Wonder Lake W s Junior Varsity Beats Woodstock McHenry's Junior Varsity basketball team showed a neat passing game last Friday night at Woodstock in gaining a 44-34 victory over the young Streaks. Woodstock got off to an early lead, but the McHenry team picked up steam and finally pulled away after holding a 2-point lead going into the last quarter. Jim Jackson's 13 points led the offenpe as each man on the team came through at important points In the game.*. • McHenry J.V. Oeffling Jackson Huemann t.

FIVE 36-26 The Little Warriors of McHenry High won their game Saturday night against the J.V. five of • Libertyville by a score off, 36 to ^6. Everybody got Into the scoVihg for Coach Cuda's coming varsity timber although the scoring was not heavy. The game moved along fairly close until the last period whsn the home faVoritts put. it away. Natural Rivalry And Spirited Play Show Up In Game The old rivalry was' much in evidence Friday night as the McHenry Warriors battled, but lost a 53 to 42 game to the Blue Streaks at Woodstock. While the game had the noisy crowd keyed up with fast action throughout, it was In the first quarter that McHenry put n its best show. They lead 14 to. 18 at the end of the quarter. The second period found Chuck Sahs sink 10 points for the Streaks to lead them up to a 29-22 advantage at half time. Sahs wound up with a total of 20 points to rate as the hot shot of the evening. Stan Aim scored in every quarter to pile up 16 points "for scoring honors> on the „ Warrior squad. , Widen Lead The teams played on equal terms in the third period, but the Streaks widened their lead in the last period with a wellbalanced attack. If reporting this game, was limited to the first and third quarters, your observer could go into length about the fine play of each individual Warrior. Not that the boys weren't giving it all they had in the other periods, but the opposition took over at those times and tucked the game away. Effective rebounding added to the sharp shooting of Sahs was too much. for the scrappy Warriors.

For [ehry's Youth <An Edftortsi) for additional for McHenry's youth are now under dlscussicn by local organizations, whose greatest interest in this regard Is the future of these young people and the part they may play in the civic life of McHenry. Local 'teen-agers must surety be aware of the effort expended in their behalf and thus realize how lucky they are to live in a community which puts their future above 11 other interests. Although McHenry is unfortunate in having temporarily lost its winter thtwtrc, there are many other sagg&es of reareation open to thennamong them is the local rolle^mk, which is one of the largest and most modern in the mid-west. Ice skating ponds have also been provided. The P.T.A. is making possible square dancing and a complete social evening every two weeks for those of junior high age. For several years, the Chamber of Commerce, with the cooperation of veterans' groups, the P.T.A. and the school, maintained a 'teen age canteen for those of high school age. The school, itself, has provided much more than the average amount of recreational facilities for the young folks of the community. In addition to dances held after games and those on more Important occasions, an extensive athletic program during noon hours and after school take up many leisure hours ox the students. Not only catering to competing teams, which are small in number, all students are encouraged to participate in a long list of sports which include wrestling, golf, baseball, tennis, basketball, volleyball, football and hockey, most of them played intramurally. With plays, musical programs, amateur hours and other activities, surely today's 'teen-agers in McHenry are provided with a number of wholesome outlets for energy. In the past few years, churches have been Instrumental in organizing social and sports programs. Grandma's era is loqg past and the day when parchesi or dominoes served as , entertainment for th& whole fan^y for an entire evening is all but iforgotten. There is. much to be said in favor of an old fashioned evening with the family and even the most modern among us experience moments when we would like to see the pendulum sway just a bit toward the good old days. Until it doss, McHenry youth may feel fortunate in knowing that their home community, today, is expending more energy than ever in the past to secure a maximum of recreation for them.
