Section O&e ~ Page Four H3TY3(IiinrTd AHN3ff>W 3HX Thursday, August 11, 3966 fi • * SO I HEAR--- By: Earl Walsh Before leaving Inst week for beautiful Wrigley Fit-Id, we advised some of our chief tormentors of our plan. Thought it best since the last time we did such a thing we ran into a carload of Cub stalwarts on the way out of the park. They, of course, i>oured it on us without mercy. Frankly we wanted to see what keeps those Cubs in last place. Now we know. After printing that poem by Aileen O'Reilly atx>ut McCarthy, Mrs. Krnest (Madeline) Schroeder brought us a 1915-16 year book titled The Triton and published by the class of '17. We have had a picnic looking at 1he pictures and reading through the book. For instance, a picture of Vaughn Jones shows that ho was once real thin. Maybe streamlined is the w o r d. Vaughn and Floyd Cooley were in the latest fashion with those high ,hard, detachable, collars. Many of our readers of today would not remember the names, but many would know the likes o' Dorothy Knox Weber, Agnes Frisby Schaefer. Nellie Doherty, Lillian Stilling, Albert Barbian. Thomas Phalin, Ellen Spencer Phalin, Helen Pint Moriarty, Verona Niesen Kent, George Stock and many others. A picture of the school championship basketball team of 1915-16 shows Coach Dorr, Alfred Richardson, Henry Miller, Frank Justen. Lester Bacon and Ed Bonslett. That was a sharp team. Our mother sent this telegram to the Triton editor: Across the leagues of silence Across the miles of space Across the years of absence Which slowly, slowly pace We stretch a hand of greeting As life you proudly face. Loretta Walsh Class '92 . We thought it served England right when we sent them Cassius Clay in exchange for the Beatles. Then what did they do but send us that Clay fight back to us via TV.

SPORTSMEN TO HONOR LEWIS PITZEN SUNDAY After 25 years of membership in the club, Lewis Pitzen, well known sportsman and business man, will have his day when the McHenry Sportsmen's Club celebrate the event with a big sho^fc in his honor. Sunday August 14 is the day, and one of the highlights will be the presentation of a lifetime membership to him. ' Pitizen, one of the real old timers here, has made legions of friends in both McHenry and Lake Counties, and a record turnout is expected. Pitzen was born on the family farm on Pistakee Bay which his grandparents established in 184.'; after arriving from Germany. His father, following the line, continued to farm the land until 1920. It was back in 191S that Pitzen started the business now well known as I^itzen's Camp which he has owned and operated continously since. Pitizen was one of six children, and his brother Nick still lives in the Bay area. He was married in 194.°) and h.^s three children. Hale and hearty, he can outshbot many of the younger hot-shots, and on hunting trips can walk most of them into the ground. To make certain that none of his many friends and acquaintances who wish to take part in the festivities are not disappointed, and for those who may not be able to attend the August 14 celebration," a repeat performance will be held on Sunday August 28th. Shooting starts at 11 a.m. and every contest in the l>ooks will bo on the day's program. The Saturday August 6th Jack Rabbit Shoot turned up some new names in the winners column when Len Huhn, Tngleside, and Wallace Man/, Fox Lake shot themselves into a tie for first place in Class A with a score of 47. Roy Jarret t, Grayslake, came in second with 46. Huhn also took long run honors with 32. In the Ijewis Class, Harry Stern, Antioch latched on to first place with 44 while Ed Koepke, McHenry, took second with 43. The Club can be reached from the east via Route 134 to its terminus, then a right turn. From the west the route is through Johnsburg, across the Fox River to Adams Service Station and then a left turn.

The Shamrocks started off in great fashion as 1hey scored in the first four innings. After that it was a pitchers duel until the Shamrocks' eighth. At this time they put together five runs on three hits. The games leading hitters were Pierce, 2 for 3, Soda, 2 for 5, Adams, 2 for 4.

It has become so commonplace that people just flick the switch and take results for granted. Do you understand the Electrical power in your home? The system works on the same principles as your water system. Volts, amperes, and watts are units of electrical measure, just as quarts, pounds, and yards are also units of measure. A volt represents electrical pressure...the flow of electric current in a wire is just about the same as the flow of water through a pipe. Pressure induces flow in bolh instances. An ampere is the quantity of electric current that can flow through your wires. Small wires restrict the flow of electricity, just as small pipes restrict the flow ol water. A watt is the unit of power needed to do the work electrically. Too many appliances operated at the same time on an undersized wire causes it to become overloaded and overheated. The insulation on the wires may wear through, allowing live wires to come into contact with each other resulting in a "short circuit" and, possibly, a serious fire! The practice of using overhelpful, followed then by polishing with a soft cloth. Q. My rubber gloves always make my hands perspire very uncomfortably. Is there anything I can do about this? A.

Using a mixture of two parts of liquid detergent with three parts of household vinegar, use a brush to scrub the tile, paying special attention to the little white strips between the blocks of tile. Q. How can I remove adhesive tape stains or residue from fabrics? A. By sponging with carbon tetrachloride. Thurs. - Fri. - Sat. Aug. 11 -12 -13 HIS NEWEST! HIS BIGGEST!
