Page Four THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, August 25, 1960 O/a&Jc "SO I HEAR" -- Back to the mines! After a short, but pleasant vacation we must get back to our chores. Oar gal Friday, whom we should tag with a more original name, is also back on the job and looking great. That should make our dear editor happy, too. eonsin last week, we saw a sign in a ladies clothing store that read -- "Clothing Ms off -- and more". When we sat down at the beach a little while, we knew what they meant. ' Who should walk in today but "Line-O-Type Lyle" Franzen a real genius on the old machine 25 years ago. His hair is turning, but still there! When we returned from our • vacation, the news hit us that ; Fred Ferwerda had passed ' away and the funeral had taken place the day before qur return. While Fred had lived a good and useful life, it still hits us hard to lose a good friend. We experienced quite a shock at those pictures our dear "Brerida" ran on the front page before our take-pff. She muSt have had cooperation from some members of our family who aren't saying much. MARIAN CENTRAL EXPECTS SQUAD OF 95 GRIDMEN Varsity Football Players To Report Saturday For Togs The Sharp rock camp is' buzzing with excitement this week after winning the first play-off game from Dundee. The Sham- I rocks are playing better balleach week as the season moves along. John Dreymiller was the first to show us a copy. Down through the years he has been one of our favorite targets so the whole story did his heart good. Dundee will be here next Sunday for the second game of ! the 2 out of., 3 series. Let's ! j hope the home team can put on ^ I some real hustle and sew this ! series up next Sunday. Over a quarter of a century, it takes a lot of words to fill a column and a sports page. The likes o' Dreymiller and "Muggs" and our "S.B.C." helped cover many a week when items were scarce. They can take it. With some of the county league teams playing in the Genoa tournament, the county play-offs are goofed up good. Of course, bur days with Editor "Mose" give us many a chuckle to this day. He and Charlie l^enich (publisher, no less) were Republicans all the way and made no bones about running Republican newspapers. That's where our fun began. This off-again-on-again Finnegan business makes it hard i to tell you who plays where ! and when. However, as it | stands now Crystal Lake will ! be at Johnsburg Sunday after- ! noon. At least. Manager Joe 1 Frett hopes this is the final word. Daily Pinups Some fathers spend half of their salary on a son's college education, and get a quarter back. We sparred on the printed page and a couple of readers wanted the bosses to fire us. While this was going on. Mrs. Renich (another staunch Republican) 'was sending us notes and messages .through Mrs Mose to "keep it up" and "give it to them". Sunomangun we had some fun! A diplomat is one who can bring home the bacon without spilling the beans. A casanova is a chap who calls a blonde his golden opportunity. Nobody got a bigger laugh on that student picture of ours than "Red" Winkel. There must have been better names for that one. It's not alway what you eat, but what's eating you that gives you ulcers. Some studies are so deep, they go over your head. The favorite remark has been, "You were a nice looking baby. What happened?" Old "Put and Take", who must look upon the rest of us as cub reporters, followed up the story with a neat triple play that covered "Brenda", Our Gal Friday, and yours truly. We appreciate those kind words. George explained how his little sister happened to be^ come a Cub fan and also explained his leanings B. V. D. -- Before Veeck Days. Anonymous JP i 6 I a b e e ly^acLt (^{ub by Chris Nelsen T h a t s e r i e s o f p i c t u r e s caused quite a stir. We thought Brenda was real attentive to us on press day. She almost sat on our lap trying to keep us away from the back room where the page was being made up. Hope we can do as much for her on her 25th anniversary. Spent a real enjoyable Sun-^ day evening at the Forester" bowlers' steak fry at the "Pa" Thennes ranch. "Pa" and Vic Miller were all decked out in special costumes to lend color to the event. Vic was dressed as Uncle Sam and handed out food like Uncle hands out foreign aid. In addition to preparing the steaks and roasting sweet corn, Vic added a dainty touch by pouring for the ladies. Due to the fact that the fifty-eighth annual Inland Regatta is being held from Aug. 21 - 26 there was no race scheduled for Sunday. This, however, did not effect the Saturday series race. The winner of the Saturday race was Ron Schloemer. In second place in the race was Norm Reese who was followed by Don Looze in third. The results of the regatta at Ocauchee last weekend are in and they show that Pistakee did very well. The regatta was won by Wally Tarman of Ocauchee and Wally Schmidt, also ^f the host club, took second. We were proud to have Don Looze with his crew of John Maselter, Chris Nelson and Ted Matt finish third, and Norm Reese with his crew of Hedy and Henry DeYoung, and Jane Nye finish fifth. Joe Zahn with Frank Davenport, Jr., and Nancy Zahn were sixth and John Looze and Ron Leganger took seventh. Next weekend we will be back on schedule with both the Saturday and Sunday series About 95 football candidates from throughout McHenry county report for equipment and r physical examinations at Marian Central Catholic high school Saturday. With 15 lettermen returning from last years squad and a dozen ineligible players who join the varsity this year,: Marian Central hopes to field an interesting and colorful team. Marian opens its 10 game schedule Saturday night, September 17 at Woodstock against Maryville of DesPlaines. All of Marian's home games will be played on the Woodstock Community high school field. Coach Tom Parsley has called two-a-day practices starting at 9 a.m. Monday. Athletes will follow a tight schedule starting Monday, Aug. 29.

Three of Marian's first four games will be at. home. Last year Maryville won 19-6, as the Hurricanes dropped seven games before winning the finale at North Boone 19-13. Parsley is anxious to welcome the 15 returning lettermen and is looking forward to the chance to try out the | ineligible athletes who can [ j o i n t h e v a r s i t y s q u a d t h i s fall. Players who transferred to Marian from another high s c h o o l w e r e i n e l i g i b l e l a s t year. Quarterback Mike Purvey, halfback Bernie Low, fullbacks Skip Karas and Joe Vilmain, center Bill Simonini, and guard Bruce Peterson head the list. Tom Harding, most valuable player and a rugged end and defensive player, heads the list of lettermen back. Also returning are Gary Blodgett and Tony Paluch, tackles; Mike O'- Leary and Ed Crowley, halfbacks; and Bill Riley, a freshman quarterback last year. Little League The major league race ended in a .tie between Hester Oil <^/vls and Althoff Gas Falcons with each team losing only two of fifteen games played. The two teams met in a play-off Sunday with Art Jackson's Falcons beating the Owls, managed by Otto Larsen, by a 4-2 score. Rickey Greenly and Bob Guenveur were the hitting stars for the winners with each driving in two runs. Dennis Blake pitched steady ball to gain' the win. The Owls threat* ened in the final inning but a good throw from Guenveur in right field eased the situation for the Falcons. Glenn Olsen, the regular Falcon catcher, miissed the game because of illness. Little. Tim Foran took over the catching duties and did a bang up job. In the other games during the week, Dickie Doherty's hitting paced the Owls to two wins over the' Bluebirds. The Falcons came from behind to beat the Eagles in spite of Pat Wirtz's three hits including a homer and the Cardinals edged the Orioles. Final Standings Won Lost Falcons 14 2 Owls 13 3 Bluebirds 7 8 Orioles 4 11 Cardinals 4 11 Eagles 3 12 Minor League Lenny Blake's All-Star team edged Ed Doyle's All-Stars in the rubber game of a three game series by a score of 4-3. Dennis DePauw pitched 5 nohit innings for the winners as he hooked up in a scoreless duel with Bryce Klontz. Neither team scored until Blake's team counted twice in the bottom of the fifth. John Anderson relieved De Pauw as Doyle's team scored three runs in the sixth. The winners scored their final two runs in the bottom of the sixth. SOFTBALL NOTES We would have liked Joe Etten's picture as he slid that foot long ear of corn across his mouth. Before entering the picnic area, we stopped in to see the new baby at the Gende home. Mama Betty let us hold little Joseph, a truly fine looking boy. We aren't saying which side of the family he resembles. •„ While touring through Wis- BOWLING SEASON OPENS The McHenry County Women's Bowling association will open the season with a meeting Tuesday, Aug. 30, at 8 p.m. at the King Pin Lanes, Fox River Grove.

The Great Outdoors <n By lack Walsh Alfred M. Dember of 102 Morningside Drive, Lakemoor, is shown at left with a friend, Floyd Baca, and their prize catch of yellow catfish. The fish, from left to right, weigh 65 lbs., 35 lbs. and 40 lbs. Dember is home on leave from Kelly Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. The fish were taken from the Colorado river, Smithville, Texas. He says the natives catch them between 5 and 10 lbs. and can hardly believe the size of those taken by Dember and friend. They have also caught 3 and 4 lb. frogs. - Good news for dove hunters -- the bag limit on mourning doves has been increased from 10 to 12 this year. This increase is attributed to the nationwide nesting success of the past few years. As many of us remember, the dove population decreased alarmingly during the early 1950's due to an epidemic of parasitic worms. The 1960 dove season opens Sept. 1 at 12 noon Central Standard Time and closes at sunset Nov. 9. Daily shooting hours are from 12 noon until sunset. Daily bag limit is 12 and 24 in possession-after the first day. As far as we know squirrel hunters will abide by the same rules as last year with the season opening Sept. 1 at sunrise and ending at sunset Oct. 27. The limits are 5 daily and 10 in possession. Shooting hours are from sunrise to sunset throughout the season. A new guide to the upper I^ig^i^pippi river has been published by the Upper Mississippi Conservation committee. The booklet, in the form of a road map, covers recreation on the river from Itasca State Park in Minnesota to St. Louis, Mo. It discusses history, river lore, wild-life points of scenic or historical interest, and river boating safety. We think that this booklet will be quite helpful to fishermen, hunt e r s, campers and boaters of the Mississippi. Copies may be obtained from the Division of Fisheries, Room 102, State Office Building, Springfield, 111. The McHenry Sportsmen's club is holding a prize trapshoot, open to the public, Aug. 28. The practice trap will be open at 10 a.m. and the prize shoot will start at 1 p.m. McHenry Country Club News By Jack Buckie Let's start off with the big news of the week: Ed Buss won the 1960 Club championship last Sunday by shooting a fourth round 75. This, coupled with his previous rounds of 73- 67-72, gave him a 72 hole total of 287, three over par for the tournament. His closest rival was Vale Adams who ended up with a 72 hole total of 289. Oddly enough, that 289 was 11 shots less than Vaile used to win last year's championship. Ed Buss had won the title once before, in 1958. We all extend our congratulations to Ed for turning in four Excellent rounds of golf. Congratulations, also, to Frank Rourke who won the A and B combined tourney with a net score of 274 for four weeks. Frank was in contention every week that the turney was in progress, but his final round of 76 gross really cinched it for him. As a matter of fact, Frank's gross scores for the four weeks wouldn't have looked too bad posted next to the scores turned in by some of the contenders for the Club championship. Low net winners for the past Sunday are as follows: F. Johnson 70; A. Jackson 72; Brown 68; Rourke 68; Phelin 68; Nimsgren 70. Next Sunday, Aug. 28, will be the exciting All-Men's Calcutta, the first event of this kind ever held at McHenry Country club. All previous tourneys of this nature had one or more women golfers in competition. The men have always claimed that a more equitable set of teams could be compiled if the members of the distaff aids were not included. We shall see. In any event, the best of luck to all the entrants. PLAY POSTPONED CONCERT The eighth and final concert of the season by the municipal band, postponed last Friday because of rain, will be held in the parking lot west of the Buss garage on Main street Friday, Aug. 26, from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. Featured will be rock-and-roll selections on the guitar, with John Sirtak as soloist. FISH 'n PLAT AT Berryland 6 mi. west of McHenry on Rt. 1201 TAVERN BREAK-IN Burglars were reported to have broken into the Holiday Inn tavern at Ringwood, operated by Kenneth Busch, after closing hours last Thursday and took $10 in cash and fourfifths of whiskey. Entrance was gained by; breaking a window. The sheriff's office has been investigating. Another thing - that keeps the human race goiing is lack of parking space.
