PAGE 6 - PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1975 Warriors Defeat Crown 14-6 In Game Of Penalties Aplenty minutes, and in between the defense held off the challenge of the Vikings. In the final six minutes the Warriors managed to control the ball for sixteen plays. That is using the clock to your advantage. It was the Viking homecoming, should I say any more. The Vikings were the ninth and last North Suburban team to lose a homecoming game. Only the Warhawks of W North Chicago were able to salvage a homecoming win this year in the North Suburban Conference. Even the Big Red of Barrington lost to Liber- tyville at homecoming. Friday the dangerous Lake Forest Scouts are here for a game at McCracken Field. Kickoff time for the varsity is 8:00 P.M. By Dick Rabbitt Jin a game marred by nineteen penalties (twelve * against Crown) the Warriors won their fourth game of the season 14 to 6. Three of the Crown penalties were costly as ttyey scored on each, only to have them called back because of an infraction of the rules, likewise Brian Nuss 34 yard jaunt in the final period was cellen back because of a holding penalty against the <• Warriors. f All total the Vikings were penalized for 115 yards, and the officials marched off 85 yards against the Warriors. ^ On a wind swept day the Warriors won the toss and fleeted to defend the North goal, with the wind at their backs. Then to the surprise of almost everyone in Crown Bowl, the Vikings elected to kick off to the Warriors. ' Mike Mai returned the ppening kickoff back to the 29 J' ard line. The Vikes held and ommy Ludwig punted to the J/iking 20 yard line. The Warriors likewise enabled the Vikes to go nowhere, and forced lhem to punt to the 29. J After two incomplete passes. Muss picked up nine yards, and Ludwig lugged if for a first down on the Viking 37. Then d^uss on a pitchout raced with <good downfield blocking down ;to the 9. On third down and two <Don Rode rushed into the end Izone for the first Warrior score £at 4:30 of the initial period. •"Jack Bucaro's kick was good »and the Warriors led 7 to 0. ' The 49 yard march of the ; Warriors took up 9 plays. >, Bucaro's kick was to the J Viking 30, but a 15 yard walkoff J put it back on the 15. The * Warrior defense again dyg in kand held, forcing the Vikes to i punt to their own 42. On the first ^play Brian Miller, Warrior r quarterback, was thrown for a 110 yard loss. However, on the * next play he ammended his i ways by tossing a 58 yd. T.D. ' pass to end Bill Dodge for the * Warriors second T.D. of the ; period. Bucaro again booted » the ball between the uprights » and the Warriors led 14 to 0 at I the end of the initial period. * At this point in the game it » looked as if the Warriors were I really going to pour it on the J Vikings, but the Vikes thought J otherwise. ,4 PENALTIES HURT f On the first play of the second > quarter the Vikings had a touchdown called back a 57 yd. i, pass from Bernhardt to Rhode, due to offside on the part of the Vikings. Later in the period Bernhardt raced off tackle for 38 yds for the T.D. only to be called back because of holding on the part of a Viking lineman. The Warriors started a march of their own, but a holding penalty killed off any hopes of a rally. After the Warriors were forced to punt, the Vikings started on another march, only to be stopped by penalties. Bernhardt again tossed a pass to Rhode for the T.D., but offsides brought the ball back as the half ended. It has been a long time since anyone has seen a high school team have three touchdowns called back in one quarter, but it happened Saturday at Crown. These penalties were no fluke, it was obvious on all three infractions that the Vikings were in violation, and even Coach Bill Owen of Crown had no com­ plaints with the officiating. The first half of the game belonged to the Warriors. But the second half was a different story. Crown brought back the kickoff to the 27. After a first down, the Warrior defense again dug in and forced a punt to the 49. Nuss ran 30 yards to the 19, but a holding penalty brought the ball back. A pass in­ terference penalty against Crown gave the Warriors a first down on the 46. On a deflected pass by Miller, Crown in­ tercepted on the Warrior 40. MAI INTERCEPTS With Krueger and Kennedy plus a holding penalty against the Warriors the Vikings found themselves on the Warrior nine yard line. The defense did it again and took over on the 27. A fumble recovery by Crown on the 29 after the first play put the Vikes in the driver's seat once more. But three plays later Steve Mai intercepted on the 4 to thwart the Vikings advance. Three times during the period the Warrior defense held against the heavier Viking team within the 30 yard line. This is the mark of a good defensive team. (In com- parsion watch the Bears) Midway in the final period the Vikings finally got on the scoreboard without a penalty. A 15 yd. pass from Bernhardt to Rhode was good for the T.D.- with 6:13 remaining in the game. The P A T. was no good and the Warfiors led 14 to 6.

Tom Balchunas again paved the way to victory by scoring 4 touch­ downs, giving him 16 for the season. The other touchdown was scored by Ed Carey (his first). Balchunas also added 2 extra points and Mike Sharp scored the other extra point. Other offensive stars were Tim Sabatka, Terry Schimon and the entire offensive line, led by the fine blocking of Keith Porter. The leading flag getter for the 3rd time this season was Sean Haley. The entire defense played well, keeping Harrison out of Montini's end of the field for most of the game. Jeff Musielak held Harrison's leading receiver to no receptions in the entire game. Montini will be striving for an undefeated season in its final game next Thursday, October 23d, when it hosts Big Hollow School at Admiral Field.

(STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD) EAR[ WALSH So I Hear SPORTS EDITOR--I Heard Coach Bill Day speak at the Rotary Club meeting last week and was glad to hear him mention the importance of a good front line in a football game. Must admit we try to keep our eye on the ball. Some smart observers say to keep your eyes on the line play if you want to know what goes on in the game. s Coach Day explained the different classifications for schools in the playoffs and Hugh Fanning thinks it would be a good idea for the Plain- dealer sports section to carry an explanation. (How about including this in one of your columns, Dick Rabitt?) The Warriors beat Crown 14-6 last Saturday. Now they face the up and coming Lake Forest team here on Friday night. Watched the ducks swim­ ming along Boone Creek and noticed several drakes paired off. Where were the hens? Looked like the Odd Couples. Just read where the final Watergate report has been completed. Let's hope that's final. Any more would be too much. We still like the old country stores of yesteryears. Did you ever watch a man try to wheel a shopping cart through a super market on a Friday or Saturday? And some people tell us you have to go to Paris or Rome to see wild traffic. There is no way you can walk fast enough to get a little child past a candy counter. Some of the lopsided scores in football games, pro - college - high school, this season make one wonder if too many mismatches aren't scheduled. Nobody likes a one-si led game--especially if you are the one being clobbered. You may have thought Dick Rabbitt got a blow on the head when he predicted a win for Libertyville over those Broncos of Barrington. That crystal ball must have told him something. Liber­ tyville took it 9 to 7. A while ago you read about Lou Bending, one of McHenry's all time great athletes, in this column. Walt Freund tells us that Lou called on him last week- chipper as can be and looking forward to his 91st birthday on Nov. 21st. PICKUPS: A friend is a person who knows all about-and still likes you. In this generation a gen­ tleman is a fellow who holds the door open for his wife while she carries in the grocery bags. IF THE GOOD LORD had wanted us to see the sunrise, He would have scheduled it later in the day. "Canes" Win Overtime Thriller At Lombard By Dick Rabbitt Trailing 14 to 0 at halftime the Marian "Hurricanes" of Coach Tom Parker roared back to a thrilling 21 to 14 overtime win over Montini at Lombard on Saturday afternoon. The first half was all Montini as they broke out of a scoreless first period with two second period touchdowns. DeSimone raced into the the endzone at 8:41 for the initial score, and with 2:46 remaining a 36 yd. scoring pass from O'Donnell to Westercamp was also good for the T.D. John Dooley converted both times for a 14 to 0 halftime lead. Whatever words of wisdom Coach Parker had must have worked. Taking the kickoff they marched 74 yds in 1Q plays with Paul LeBlanc going in from the 10 for the first score. The kick failed and Marian trailed 14-6. Midway in the final period the "Canes" started another march. Starting on their own 35 yard line, and grinding out in the "Woodsy Hayes" fashion the Marian eleven found themselves on the Montini 18 with second and 9. Dannv Knox stepped in pocket and found John Dwyer alone in the end zone for the T.D. Paul LeBlance crashed over tackle for the 2 point conversion and the game was tied at 14 all. The clock ran out on the Broncos as they reached the Marian 16 at the end of regulation time. In the overtime the "Canes" lost the toss, and were forced to go on offense. Coach Parker told me,"We wanted defense, as we thought we could hold them." He also added, "I didn't know it was going to be that easy to score". In three plays the Hurricanes scored. LeBlanc made 6, and Connerty made it to the 1. Then LaBlanc went off tackle for the T.D. Wally Bitschura split the uprights. However the game was far from over. On the first play Montini had a six yard loss, next play they piclyed up one to make it 3rd and 15. An interference call on Marian after an interception gave the Broncos a first and goal on the 4. The "Cane" defense dug in and in two plays held the Montini eleven to minus one yard. On third down a pass was deflected out of bounds, but the big play was still to come. On 4th and 15 and the Broncos desperate, they threw a flag pass that was picked off by defender Jim Bennett on th<~ Woudci LAKE FUTILLA t * LU.C.& A»»X 1. A privileged vessel 1.

Golfers Fail To Qualify By Dick Rabbitt Coach Chuck Cuda's McHenry High golfers failed to qualify for the State Finals being held next weekend in Champaign. High winds prevailed at the Fox Bend course in Oswego last Friday. With the high winds and the stiff competition of Rockford Guilford, West Aurora and Cary Grove, the Warriors closed out their season for the year. Final stats for the year will be coming in the near future. three, and the game was over for a Marian victory. It was a homecoming defeat for Mon­ tini. Coach Parker had this to say about his team. "They were simply outstanding during the second half and overtime. The coach also added that the defense played a whale of a game. He mentioned several he thought to be outstanding, Bill and Mike Rankin, Jim Bennett the hero of the game, Paul LeBlanc the workhorse of the Marian offense, and John Orso. He also commented that the front four on defense should be mentioned, but would not give me any names. (I'm sure the boys and fans know these fellows). Marian is now 2 and 3 in the conference and will play at Driscoll who also has a 2 and 3 conference record. MCHENRY SCHOOL LEAGUE What a week of action took place at McHenry Recreation. The battle for first place is still going on and is close, and it looks like there is a battle going on for last place as well. Although no record lasts forever, I feel quite sure that Wil Farrell's DYNAMITE game of 256 is bound to stand for quite a while. It is the highest game bowled since the inception of the league, so a special CONGRATULATIONS, Wil, take a bow. Wil also captured high series for the men and Carolyn Gratz made her debut with the women's high series of 505 (wish I'd done that). Elaine Rogers made her mark by scoring a 192 for women's high game. Our only "picker- upper" was Loretta Homo who handled the 8 -10 with ease. Carolyn Gratz raised her average by 7 pins (wish I'd done that, too); Wil Farrell and Lyle Johnson added 4 pins; while Barb Medings, Judy Hamilton and Barb Miller added 3 pins. 2.
