JUNIOR LEGION The McHenry Junior Legion baseball team wound up its season last Sunday by taking second place in the Union Legion tournament. McHenry lost in the finals to Wheaton. Wildness on the part of three McHenry. pitchers, along with a couple of errors, proved the downfall of the local team. The game was played on a field that had been -'soaked by rain all morning which no doubt accounted for the sloppy play. The final score was 13-6. Some timely hitting by Herb Barker, Bob Meyer, Jim Justen, Kay Buiak and Ron Smith, plus lour straight walks to Jack Schaefer, kept McHenry in the game until the sixth inning.
