PAGE 8- ?LAINDEALER-FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1972 Earl: Came across this article in the St. ' Petersburg Times. Thought it might interest you to read between the rain storms. From the "Land of Sun­ shine." Bob Smith Dear Bob: How did you ever get the idea that we have rain storms in McHenry? Must admit we have had some heavy dew throughout the summer months. Enjoyed reading the clip­ pings about the Florida Winter Instructional League. Par­ ticularly enjoyed the picture of Chuck Hiller. He looks as serious as Connie Mack in that picture. Hope you can get Over to Sarasota to watch the White Sox next spring. That's the team to watch in '73. "S.I.H." The season is here when sports overlap like feathers on a duck's back. Baseball, football, basketball and hockey in the big time pro sports are on the move. Seems like seasons are too long. But, each one wants to get a slice of the sports fan's buck. Every now and then we vow to read the hospital notes more carefully. One of our favorite people, Clara Stoffel, was in and out of the hospital before we knew it. Glad to hear she is on the gain.

Pete Justen passed away after a busy and useful life. , Pete was one of our faithful readers. How well we remember when his wife and a group of girls rode the train from Chicago to McHenry one evening and were so busy in conversation that they forgot to get off at the home station. They sent out an S.O.S. to Pete to pick them up in Ringwood. It didn't take him long to call us with that humorous little item. Del (the chef) is back and so is the famous smorgasbord'^at McHenry Country Club. So we found our way down to pack in a few calories Wednesday night.' We like good food, but no more than meeting good friends. Had the pleasure of both. Still Wednesday night and out to the Community Center in Whispering Oaks. A kind in­ vitation came from Mrs. Hamilton to join the crowd and enjoy the program. Coach Bill Day showed a film of the Chicago Bears 1971 highlights. It is hard to remember that the Bears had so many great moments. Guess we read too much about the other side of he picture. Coach Day did a great job in a round table discussion on sports in general. Those Whispering Oakers go back a long way in their recollection of sports events. (Of course, the ladies can't remember back that fiir). One fellow asked how long we have written for the Plain- HIE Woodstock 338-003? * for Fri. October 6 1 week Alfred Hitchcock's ••Frenzy" and Clint Eastwood in "Play Misty for Me" Both R Rated dealer. We answered - "since 1935" - and got a chuckle out of a remark - "You never give up, do you?" Nope, we can't give up while we are having so much fun. Had no idea that the Whispering Oaks Community Center is so big, so well- equipped and so inviting. It is a fine recreational center for members who wish to take advantage of the facilities. The meeting room is spacious. There are comfortable places where you can just sit. Or you can play pool, have a game of cards or pick up a book from their library. We had a good time at the Oaks and were bashful enough to ask Mrs. Hamilton to invite us again. • McHenry Country Club In the finals of the Past President's tournament played at the club on Sunday, Oct. 1, * Ed Buss won in Class A, defeating Ron Wilkins in a closely contested match. In Class B, Dick Turner, the Mundelein flash, beat Dick Freund in another well played contest. Chuck Pyles turned back the challenge of Ed Bishoff to win the cup in Class C This event concluded tour­ nament play at the club for the 1972 golf season. Thanks to Russ Weyland for his excellent handling of the special events during the past season and also to Art Beck and other members of the games committee. Trophies to this year's tournament winners will be awarded on Oct. 28 at the club party commemorating the club's 50th anniversary.

Harriers Finally Defeated On Home CHEERING FOR THE WARRIORS - These pretty gals pose in what would appear to be an excellent defensive formation against a field goal attempt. They are 1-r bottom row, Nanette Romani, Lynn Steinsdorfer, Debbie Schaffer, Vicki Peterson and Beth LeLeux. On the top are Jayne McMillan - captain, Sally Hawkins, Nona Amour, Pam Freund and Kolleen Carroll. Tonight the girls will travel to Dundee to cheer the Warriors to a hopeful victory. (STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD) Course 28 to 29 Warriors Vs. Cardinals By Dick Rabbitt It was bound to happen sometime. The "Running Warriors" finally were defeated on their home course at West campus by Barrington last Thursday evening by a score of 28 to 29. This was the first defeat ever for the Warriors on their home course. For the past four years the Warriors met foe after foe and emerged victorious. The pressure kept building and the young men met the challenge. Thursday the balloon burst. This young and inexperienced team put up a good fight. The final score will verify the strong fight that the young Warriors put up. J. Fielder of Barrington was first in the time of 16:37 breaking the course record. Finishing, high for McHenry were Hines 3rd, Mclnerney 4th and Tonyan 5th. The McHenry Sophomores won their meet 24 to 34. Wyn- veen was first in the time of 17:55 and Greg Worm finished 3rd. ' , The freshmen running the 2 mile course instead of 3 miles swamped the Barrington yearlings 18 to 39. O'Halleran ran the course in 11:34 and Reilly was second. Tonight At, Dundee Hunters' Warm-Up Shoot In Antioch* Sunday, Oct. 15 by Dick Rabbitt The McHenry high school "Fighting Warriors" travel down Route 31 tonight to face the "Cardunals" of Dundee high school in an important game for the "Warriors". Kickoff time is 8 p.m. The Mc­ Henry team is still in contention for the North Suburban crown. They enter tonight's fray with a 1 and 1 record. Dundee is at the bottom of the standings with an 0 and 2 record. The "Warriors" are still smarting from the 7 to 2 loss to the Barrington Broncos last Friday night, and are hoping for revenge at the hands of the .Cardunals. > > The "Warriors" ' showed great "improvement last week, although their ground game was not up to par, they did manage 85 yds., on the ground. The biggest thing in the Warrior camp was the fact that they did not fumble. Pass in­ terceptions did hurt at crucial times. Their defense is tops in the league, giving up only 13 pts in the two games. If they can get their offense clicking, watch out, this team will be tough throughout the rest of the season. To you young Warriors, let's put it all together tonight at Dundee and bring home a big victory. McHenry fans are with you all the way. Last week there was a crack in my "Crystal Ball". I only had one winner and for the season I am 5 and 3. This week I hope my record will improve, so here goes. Warriors over Dundee ( about time the Warriors put it altogether) War Hawks over Blue Streaks (47 pts against Crystal Lake too much for Streaks) Barrington over Tigers (Crystal Lake still a mystery team, should be better) Zion over Libertyville (Zion too strong for the young "Cats) North Suburban Libertyville 2 0 Barrington 2 0 McHenry 1 1 Woodstock 1 1 Zion Benton 1 1 North Chicago 1 1 Crystal Lake 0 2 Dundee 0 2 Scoring - 2 Games pts Hanna N.C. 26 Osmun C.L. 19 Poe Lib 12 Jarret Barr 12 Christian Zion 12 Bowles Zion 12 Caples Zion 12 The 1972 hunting dates have been set, and now the eager hunters are champing at the bit, as they wait for "the day" to arrive. To pass the time rapidly, and to give these nimrods some much needed practice, An- tioch's 885 Civic Club will hold its fourth annual hunter's warm-up shoot on Sunday, Oct. 15 on the grounds of the Nor­ thern Illinois Conservation club, 3 miles west of Antioch on Route 173. Shooting will start at •9 a.m. and continue until dark. Non hunters too will go for this event, since they can get in some fancy shooting and fill up the larder with some fancy vittles at one and the same time. Hunters will like this one because they too can stock up the freezer with ready-to-cook game for sure, while a foray into field or slough carries no such assurance. All will be firing at clay targets in a variety of events designed so that all classes of shooters will be certain to win a fair share of the goodies.

"Alkalinity of surface waters is an indicator as to the fertility of the water and its capacity to sup­ port aquatic life," said A1 Lopinot, chief fisheries biologist for the Illi- 29th. In the J.V. Kevin Weiss finished 28th. Two youngsters showed great promise, John Mclnerney a sophomore who finished 2nd and Greg O'Halleran a freshman who also finished 2nd in his division. It looks as if "Hutch" has a couple of promising youngsters on his squad, and with the type of competition they are com­ peting against, things will begin to look up for the local team in the future. Remember fares, two big meets here later this fall, the county and the conference meets. More about these meets at a later time. nois Department of Conservation. "Illinois is the only state at this time that uses this test to determine the number of fish to be stocked." Total alkalinity is a measure of the concentration of calcium bi­ carbonate and, to a lesser extent, magnesium bicarbonate. Alkalinity can be grouped into three classifi­ cations in regard to productivity for fish: Less than 50 parts per million: Water is very soft. Usually little plankton is present. Low produc­ tivity and sparse growth of sub­ mersed aquatic plants. Deep lakes will often support trout. Fifty to 100 parts per million: Water is moderately soft. Will have more extensive growth of sub­ mersed plants. It is of medium productivity for fish life. One hundred-plus parts per mil­ lion: Water is hard. Usually has good plankton blooms and exten­ sive growths of aquatic plants. It is often highly productive for fish. Surveys showed that alkalinity of surface impoundments in Illi­ nois ranged from a low of 10 to a high of 456 parts per million. The average throughout the state was 117. Plotted on a map, biologists have found that certain areas of the state have a greater fertility than others, and this is being used as a guide to fish stocking. Stream alkalinity throughout the state shows readings ranging from 10 to 410 parts per million. The average fertility for streams was higher than on impoundments, with a 202. "Alkalinity content is used as a guideline to our stocking. program because the fertility of water tells us the pounds of fish a body of water can support," Lopinot said. "We feel by stocking accordingly we can produce a more effective sport fishery." For stocking purposes, fertile waters receive 100 bass and 1,000 bluegill per surface acre. Average ponds receive 75 bass and 750 bluegill per surface acre, and poor waters receive 50 bass and 500 bluegill per surface acre. New Hunting Regulations Waterfowlers who plan to hunt on state-managed areas at Carlyle Lake, Rend Lake or Lake Shelby- ville will be allowed to bring com­ mercial materials to build blinds this year. However, they must be removed at the end of each day's hunt. CD of A BOWLING Tues., Oct. 3,7:00 P.M.

"These are natural hunting areas with plenty of cover," said Jim Lockart, supervisor of the division of wildlife resources for the Illi­ nois Department of Conservation. "There is really no need to bring building materials to the area; how­ ever, if a hunter wishes to bring a net, burlap, or other camouflage material with him, it will be per­ mitted." Blinds may be constructed of natural brush and other m^pals at hand in the areas ana sites will be claimed by hunters on a first come, first served basis daily. "All blinds must be dismantled before the hunter leaves the area," Lockart pointed out. "The hunter does not control the blind site, except when he is hunting on it."
