,PG. 6, - PLAINDEALER- FRI., MAR. 8, 1968 e End By Bert Hagemarui • A long, disappointing season ended Monday' night in the Crystal Lake cavern, as the Wartfors dropped a first round regional decision to the Blue Streaks of Woodstock by a margin of 72-50. Playing each other for the second time in 72 hours, and showing the strain of tournamsnt play, both clubs got off in the first period to a rather shaky start. The Streaks held an eight point lead at the end of the first stanza, but the scrappy Wat'riors stormed back in the second quarter to tie the score at halftime, 33 all. The second quarter was perhaps the best the Warriors have put together in a long time as their hustling press forced numerous mistakes, and the shooting percentage soared. With hopes running high for the upset of the season, the third quarter Revised Fishing Guide Now Available Free To Anglers Springfield, 111., March 4 -- A new, revised edition of the Illinois Fishing Guide has been published by the Illinois Department of Conservation.

Sailboat operators who need assistance with their applications may obtain it at the show. Donald Doherty R.Ph. Robert Schultz, R.PH. Since the days of medicine shows, barkers and snake oil there have been great strides in medicine the world over. Much of the credit can be given to the enactment of the Pure Food and Drug Act, in 1906 by President Theodore Roosevelt. Every drug store has thousands of preparations produced by scientific laboratories which spend millions in research and investigation. Any of these are safe and beneficial. All suggest seeing your physician if the condition persists. Unlike the medicines of old, these do serve immensely in the relief of suffering. Considering the rate of progress in the last 60 years, it is calculated that soon there will be no such thing as loss of work from illness. . .Doctors will control any condition within hours. . .No headaches. . .No colds. . .No backaches. . .but until that time BOLGER'S DRUG STORE. . .1259 N.

The orange and black were outscored 18-5 in this period, and Woodstock pulled steadily away in the last stanza to ice the gam>3. Credit for the Streak Victory musl go to a remarkable performance by huge Steve Wilson. The hulking pivotman poured through 38 markers, 13 by the field goal route, and 12 points from the charity stripe. His teammates fed him repeatedly and he whirled, muscled and hooked his way to an outstanding regional performance. The Streak zone defense and superior height advantage paid off handsomely for them in the second half, for Mc Henry, it was the grand finale of a dismal, heartbreaking season. One note of consolation can be gained however, the tournament squad was made up of three sophomores and three juniors. They will all be back next season, and so will the Warriors} with a vengeance I am sure. ITEM: When choosing the color to use on your library or study, avoid bright, distracting colors which are more appropriate in a recreation room. Instead, pick a subdued, quiet color such as pale green or beige. Although dramatic dark shades may be used to create striking effects in other rooms, stick to tones which will- reflect the greatest^jdegree of light in any roon)^#fequently used for reading.

SCHOOL BOND ISSUE "Dear Editor: "The proposed Middle school bond issue is not necessary. There have been numerous alternatives presented to the School Superintendent but, he has chosen to ignore some obvious answers. "1. The outmoded'scheduling of the school programming lets our school plant remain idle during the summer months. Our present school space can be increased by one-fourth by a full year program within each school. "2. Our teacher force can be best utilized by their having two-week vacation periods, working a full year. "3. Seniority, as in industry, can determine who takes the lesser desired winter or fall vacations. "4. Taxation increases are not for salary purposes, but the large amount goes for school plants which have become college campus type edifices. "Workable systems utilizing the year around school system have been proposed time after time, one such system by a McHenry Woman of note. One answer by Superintendent Bergstrom to this proposal was to state that the children would be psychologically affected by such a system. Poor Johnny would be attending school while his chum would be on vacation. When the time comes that poor Johnny pays the taxes for increased school plants, then he can have a say in what transpires or when he can take his vacations. "The proposed $2,000,000 bond issue is beyond the $1,- 400,000 state authorized amount. Does this include the amount necessary to supply the desks, chairs, furnishings, and increased teachers to man the Middle school, or, as in the high school bonding, will increased bonding be required for these items? " It is time to take advantage of the facilities we have and are not using to its fullest. The Agrarian society of the area is past and the need for summer vacations to aid on the farm is no longer the rule. Our school system should reflect this and be a year round program.
