Antioch Wins Youth Tourney The McHenry Invitational 10-and 11-year-old hardball tournaments have concluded, and although local teams weren't champs in either league, they did make a good showing. In berth double-elimination tournaments, McHenry boasted two teams in each, with all-stars forming a Nationals team and an Americans team. In the seven-team, 10-year-old tourney, the McHenry Nationals took it to the final game of the rain-delayed extravaganza before surrendering the title to a tough Antioch squad inNa 9-0 defeat. In its first game, the Nationals beat Avon 1,8-6, sewing Ave runs in the sixth inning on four hits and two timely walks. Bob Diedrich took the win and collected two singles for McHenry. Next, the Nationals took on Avon 2 (who had a first round bye) and defeated them 9-6, A lead-off double by Craig Wallace in the second inning started a five-run inning for the Nationals. Two walks and a single followed as McHenry batted around in the inning and led 5-1 after two innings. A three-run fourth, sparked by Bob Djedrich and Mike Ericson triples, was all McHenry needed in the game. In the final night of the tourney, the Nationals played three games under the VFW lights and found Antioch to be more than was hoped for. Losing the first game to Antioch, 16-2 , McHenry collected only three hits. The defeat put McHenry in a head-on collision with the McHenry Americans while Antioch sat back to play the winner of that game in the championship. In the battle of McHenry, the Nationals took a quick 2-0 lead in the first on a two-RBI triple by shortstop Mike Boland. Butch Meyer's National squad scored four more in the second on two singles and four walks which proved to be enough. The final score was 12-5 in favor of the Nationals. In their third game of the night, the Nationals lost their hitting, while the rested Antioch nine scored nine runs in four innings off pitcher Mike Weber. Lead-off man Matt Martin had two singles, and Bob Diedrich singled once to pace the spotty McHenry attack. In advanceing to the semi-finals, the McHenry Americans played well, beating Woodstock, 2-1, Avon, 13-4, and Woodstock again, 7-3. Losses came from Antioch, 20-3, and to the Nationals in the semi-finals. The awesome Antioch offense scored a total of 55 runs in four tournament games and only allowed 6 runs during the whole tourney. Much of the same happened in the 11-year-old Invitational Tournament. Featuring teams from Round Lake, Johnsburg, Antioch, and two from McHenry, the Antioch squad again took over, beating Round Lake in the Championship, 7-3. This time, the McHenry Americans faired better than the Nationals, winning one game and losing two while the Nationals lost two in a row during the double-elimination event. After a 13-0 embarrassment to Antioch, the Americans regained composure to beat the Nationals, 6-5. The Nationals were thus eliminated in that game after losing to Johnsburg in the opening round, 8-3. The Americans were then nixxed fr >m o •**- ution in a 104 shalacking to Johnsburg. Round Lake Uien crushed Johnsburg, 18-7 in the semifinals which set up the Antioch- Round Lake confrontation in the finals. In three tourney victories, Antioch scored 31 runs and allowed only 13. Ten of the runs allowed came in an earlier meeting with Round Lake. A summary of the 12,13, 14 and 15-year-old tourney will be included in later editions of the Plaindealer. Joel Wakitsch EARL WALSH So I Hear Time is moving right along. In our extensive travels (we actually got out of McHenry County), we saw Christmas decorations for sale. Using an ̂ gWctric pencil sharpener made me think back to days when we used our jacknives as sharpeners Sometimes the pencils took an awful whittlin'. Health columns have been warning against mixing alcoholic beverages with medication. One would think milk to be the ideal swig with a pill. Not so. Don't invite milk and penicillin to the same party. Take it from one with the itch. I try to drive within the posted speed limits, but cutting down to 25 MPH means either riding the brake or throwing out the anchor. All they ask for is a yes or no vote, but delegates take the opportunity to make a speech. It takes up too much time, still one must be tolerant. After all, it is a great chance to get in front of the TV camera. Days are getting shorter, nights are getting cooler, and school supplies are advertised. That should tell us something. In reading Cousin Irene's scftapbooks, the following caught my eye: Marshal Bolger Injured Woodstock Sentinel: City Marshal John • Bolger suf­ fered an accident to one of his eyes last Saturday, which at first threatened to bring serious consequences and perhaps the loss of sight from one eye, but we are pleased to learn that all danger is passed and Mr. Bolger hopes to be on duty again in a few days. The accident was the result of the innocent occupation of splitting kindling wood, Strange are the varied moods of fame. Woodstock's marshal both bfave and bold, Feared by crooks of every name, In awe they stand, both young and old. But tho this marshal, bold and brave, Almost an army could defy, He stands defeated and dismayed. A kindling stick has his eye. City Marshal John w__ was the law in Woodstock when I was a young fellow. My father held the same position in McHenry. Old time Irish cops. How tho*s two loved to meet. 1 think the only reason my father would take time off to go to the county fair was to meet John Bolger. Office Bolger was Mrs. Paul (Vera) Doherty's father. Don Doherty is a grandson. The time is coming for baseball teams to bring rookies up from the minors. Some teams we could iqention aren't going anyplace in the pennant race so might as well lose with some new faces in the lineup as to go to the end with those who have had a chance. Many of the flowers that bloomed in the spring have wilted beyond hope. If you want to enjoy a ride through the countryside, don't bother to figure out how much the gas is costing. Just tell yourself you are entitled to some small pleasure in life. Just listened to Senator Ted Kennedy's eloquent and foreceful speech at the Democratic National Convention. If he had delivered that speech before the convention, he would have been a shoo-in. Second Place Tie Broken In Women's 16" Softball Residential vs.. Oak Park Hotel Residential came from behind and broke the two- way tie for second place in Tuesday's division as they edged out Oak Park 12-10. Peggy Rakestraw was the big slugger, as she doubled and tripled, scoring three runners which proved to be the turning point in the game. Donna Lester, Gay Kalfus and Sue McDougall all doubled, and Joan Jensen also added a triple. For Oak Park Cheryl Markvart and Kathy Fuchs doubled and Wendy tripled. Businessmen Go For Crown A TEXAS-SIZE TICKET-because "It's going to be a big day," stated Tony Varese, fund- raising chairman of the McHenry Rescue Squad as he displays an over-sized golf ticket.

C. -- The U.S. and other western democracies must face the fact that the national train­ ing, subsidization, programs for athletes in the Soviet Union and East Germany en­ able them to dominate the Olympics-as the U.S. once did. It's a propaganda tri­ umph for the Communists, who like to point to the ac­ complishment as the shape of things to come. For the U.S., it's just as well that our athletes didn't compete in Moscow. The Russians would have won the lion's share of the medals, as they have done in recent times. For U.S. athletes, how­ ever, it's a poor business. And perhaps steps should get underway- at once to organize an Olympic game among the free nations of the world. That will be a difficult task, unless further Russian aggression helps the process along, which seems likely. In an Olympics meet of free world nations, there would be little of the tension and nationalistic feeling which have crept into the Olympics in recent years- despite denials. Millions of Americans have hoped, regularly, that our athletes could, once again, outscore the Russians in medals. That seems unlikely until we inaugurate a nationally- directed, federally-supported training program.
