LOCAL BOYS PLAY FINAL FOOTBALL GAME OF SEASON The McHenry light - weight football team lost its last game of the season to St. Mary's of Woodstock last Sunday in spite of some outstanding defense plays by Joe Walker and Ken Ludwig. It wasn't too good of a season for the boys with one win - four losses and two ties. However the whole team played exciting games and the Coach, Tom Warren, was proud of the boys and the good sportsmanship they displayed. He expressed his hope of coaching the team again next season.

If enough interest and enthusiasm is expressed perhaps the Road Ass'n. will take some action, however until that time those of us with the septic problems will just have to grin and bear it.

OUR TRIP OUT WEST CONTINUED YVe awoke in our big queen size beds, wondering whether we could possibly make it to Reno, Nevada that day. We decided to play it by ear, and see how far we could get. Fortunately the roads were good and the weather clear. We covered 540 miles arriving in Reno at about 6:30 p.m. Checked into another fine hotel, had a private hors <Foeuvre hour and dasi^off to the gambling tables, and the one arm bandits^ John got the first jack pot, which stimulated our interest, and held our attention for the next couple hours. We then found a nice place to eat, had spaghetti dinner, and on our way home to our motel we stopped and fed a few more nickles to our new found bandit friends. Continued. Some people like little dogs, others big dogs, and some, no dogs at all. When everybody can agree on one size and type of dog, then the time will be ripe to merge all our churches into one.
