V ERNEST PEACOCK DIED IN SPRING GROVE THURSDAY Ernest Peacock, a native of Lake county, where he was born Nov. 26, 1870, passed away last Thursday, Sept. 28, at Spring Grove, where most of his life was spent. • He was married Dec. 26, 1893 to Emma Motley, who died in 1924. To this union four children were born, two of whom are still living, Howard of Spring Grove and Loretta Maden of Rockford. In 1925 he married Amanda Wilson-, who survives him. Funeral services were held at the Ehorn funeral home Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Pall bearers were Frank May, Math Lay, Mark Pierce, Charles Freund, Charles Gillespie and Leo La#. The battle for leadership In the county baseball league is ' still waging. At Algonquin last Sunday, the Simplex nine beat Johnsburg 6 to 3 to tie the series and bring about a third and all-important game next Sunday at Johnsburg. The Tigers started out with two runs in the first inning, aided by errors. Si Meyers lead off with a single, stole second and kept right on for third when the base was not covered. Howie Freund also singled and stole second. Errors got him around/ ( Steal Five Bases The Tigers lost no time in the base-stealing business. At the final count they had five stolen bags to their credit. In the third the Tigers returned the favor by putting Fitzgerald on through an error. Kreeger walked and Bangart sacrificed. Moerle wps safe on a fielder's choice when Howie Freund's throw to the plate failed to nip Fitxgerald. Boyd's hit scored the second and third runs of the Inning. A single by Howie Freund and three>-bagger by Bud Meyers tied up the ball game in the sixth. It was in the eighth that Algonquin put over three runs to win the ball game. Boyd hit safely and went to third on a double by R. Tipp8. Mavis was given an intentional pass. F. Tipps then smashed a triple into left center to clear the bases. Bally Ma Shaft Johnsburg caused a bit of excitement when they came to bat in the ninth. Richard Freund and Norb Smith came through with hits in pinch-hitting roles and Art Jackson drew a walk. However, Mavis pitched his way out of his troubles. It was Algonquin's turn this time to turn in tnree dor.^e plays on hard hit balls to chop offf rallies. A record crowd from all points in the county is expected to see the final game at Johnsburg nert Sunday. *• r Algonquin AB Bangart, CF 3 Moehle, IB Blanken, RF. .... 4 Boyd. SS 3 R.

When the fun was over, the Millers had won the ball game 8 to 7 and the Polio fund was enriched by over $200 In the pass-the-hat department. Ad ditional income for the fund came from the V.F.W. club-house profits. There was fun throughout the game, but in back, of the monkeyshines was a strong deains to win the ball game. The Shamrocks lined up exactly as they did 13 years ago when the team originated and the lineup remained intact except for the substitution of Alan Bockman at second base and Paul Freund on the mound. When Paul took over the pitching, Jim Larkln. awveato center field and Bob Adams retired to the bench for a hardearned rest. As always, Bob was the people's cfeolce. ! 1 Vetm Homers > Jim Larkin allowed only five tilts in six innings but a triple by Gordie and home run by Vern in the seventh convinced him that it was time to rest. Paul Preund finished tb^ game, but had control trouble in the ninth. Gerry Larkin furnished the heavy artillery for the- Shamrocks With two home rutis and a single. Gerry drove in five runs with those power drives into right field. Perhaps a play-by-play isn't (necessary in this report, but a few outstanding plays come to mind. There was some nice outflelding by Harry StilHng, a great catch on Gordie's drive In the second Inning, especially W^^thy pf mention. A big hand went to VIA Miller on a one-hand catch In the seventh. Bockman looked good when he wfent back to haul In a fly ball off Hessie's bat and double Vern off second. Those and other good plays mixed with not too many errors to give thq crowd an entertaining ball game. Best of all, the funds raised will help some victim of Polio over the hump.

Fifty-One Signed Membership List Last Thursday .Ten years ago this fall eighteen young adults gathered in the old high school gymnasium to form a club which would meet weekly, furnishing recreation and sociability for the athletic-minded individuals of this community. The club started with fewer rules than probably any other organization in town and its dues were probably the smallest. They were then and remain today, twenty cents for two and one-half hours of activity which includes, volleyball, basketball, ping pong, shuffleboard and a tasty lunch. The club >met again last Thursday night, as it has each Thursday evening from October through April in the intervening years. A membership of fifty-one was on hand to begin the new year, but only one charter member and the director, "Mac" McCracken, were able to remember the club's beginning. Cletus Althoff was president of the athletic club the first year, and records reveal these following officers for the following seasons: Cletus Althoff, 1941-42; James Larkin, 1942-43; Charles Vycital, 1943-44; Donald Weingart, 1944- 45; Margaret Larkin, 1945-46; Frank Johnson, 1946-47; Fred Wahl, 1947-48 Adele Froehllch, 1948-49; Leon Crosby, 1949-50. Joann Durland was elected president for thiB year, with Margaret Bolger serving as secretary and Mary Grace Stilling as treasurer. The peak 6t membership was attained last year when fifty-three attended.' ' Teams were drawn up for the volleyball tournament whieh begins tonight, Oct. 5. Teams 1 and 2 will start at 7:30 this week with 8 and 4 playing at tf' o'clock. •< Team 1: Gerald Larkin, captain; John Rogers, Robert Hoffman, Ed.

As in all newspaper sports departments, the method of handling a vast number of scores presents a problem. The Plalntfealer will follow the practice of trying to get as many high individual scores in print as possible. Bowling alley proprietors and league secretaries are asked to have score sheets completed and ready for a weekly pick-up. It will also help to leave notations on special happenings and any events you may want to have mentioned in Bowling Notes. Kindly write initials in front of names and mark name of league on score sheet. .
