Frank is still there to take cVe of his customers the same as always. 12-Adv. Battling their way to victories over Woodstock and Algonquin last Sunday, the Johnsburg Tigers strengthened their position as top team in the McHenry County league. The first same . was played at Woodstock add it took eleven innings tp settle the issue. The Hil ler boys (Big Poison and Little Poison) took quite a hand in bringing matters to a successful conclusion. It was Charlie who Swatted a pinch hit in the ninth to tie it up and k«ep his team in the game. And it was Dick who #ut on the clincher in the eleventh with a game-winning home run. Dick had a triple in a previous at bat. Willie Klapperlch pitched shutout ball after the fifth Inning, bat the Tigers were up against a tough competitor in Eddie Lange whose 11 strikeolts killed off many scoring opportunities -- Algonqnln< Game -- Along about 5 o'clock the Tigers squared off against the Simplex nine at Algonquin. Plenty of action in this one as the Tigers slammed their way to an 11-7 win. The big question in pre-game plans was the pitching. Manager Howie Freund sent husky Hank Suhrbier to the moqnd aud the question remained for three innings. Then, the big fellow foupd bis control and went the route in nice atyle. An error and three walks forced in a run for Algonquin in the first. Back came Johnsburg with three runs in the top of the second and the race was qn. Howie Freund started it off with a walk off Kreeger. C. Hiller sacrificed. Pitsen doubled, moving Howie to third. Jim Freund went down swinging. Suhrbier whistled a hit to left to score two runs. That was all the scoring for the inning, but Si Meyers kept it alive with the first of his three hits, a double to left. Si went to thiM when the return throw got away*. Art Jackson walked. R. Hiller filed to center. Liebert, who had a perfect day at bat with two passes and thre£ hits, led off the home team second with a base on balls. Kreeger also walked. Moehle's hit to right scored Liebert while a couple of throwing errors j»i|t Kreeger ovet* with the tying run. There was enough action In the Tiger third, but no runs. Katz led off with a hit and stole second after Howie Freund's intended sacrifice resulted in a pop to third. Charlie Hiller walked. Pitzen hit to right field and moved to second while Blanken's fine throw was nailing Katz at home plate. -- More Action -- Algonquin scored two more in the third as action continued. Mavis walked. F. Tipps was safe on an error at second. The baseB were loaded as Liebert started his hitting string. Katz made a good stop on Kreeger's smash and threw home to force Mavis. R. Tipps then lashed a double to, right to put his team two runs ahead. Katz got down low to be sure to 8top a hot bounder by Moehle for the third out. Suhrbier set 'em down 1-2-3 in the fourth and went on to pitch good ball. He didn't issue another walk until the ninth when Liebert completed hia perfect day. Bangart ran for Liebert, stole second and acored on a hit by R Tipps. But, let's not get ahead of our story. Trailing 5 to 3, the Tigers moved ahead in the seventh with three runs, then lowered Ihe boom with six hits and five runs in the eighth. Mavis came in to accomplish the thir<l out in the seventh after Kreeger gave up three hits and two walks. Came the eighth and Mavis was treated plenty rough. Suhrbier started It off with his second safe blow. Meyers, Jackson. Dick Hiller and Katz followed suit. In came Blanken to pitch. Howie Freund greeted him with a hit and Charlie Hiller walked. Both were 'thrown out trying to advance and the seoriqg ended. -- Hank Pltks Spot -- Suhrbier struck out only one man but he saved it for a good spot. With two out in the Algonquin eighth. Scheyli doubled, Boyd singled artd Blanken doubled. Mavis then went down swing ing to end the inning. The Tigers rattled 16 hits oft tbeir bats, three each by Si Meyera and,Ted Pitzen. Everybody hit safely but Charlie Hiller and he wasn't etadUy otf Ilia Inactive list. CharMfe drew two passes, laid down a sacrifice bunt and was on base on a fielder's choice. While the Tiger defense wasn't tight in the early stages, the boys came through with some fielding gems ^9 the game progressed. There will . be talk for a long time about a catch by Art Jackson in robbing Ma^is in the fifth. Art raced &ack in the trees where outfelders should never tread without a guide, stuck VP his glove aid held the ball. Hdwie Freund made a couple of real good stops and Si Meyers made a couple of throws that kept runners on the cautious side. . •» v * V * * • * * * ' J ' ,mmm--' " " - - • • 1951 RUSSIAN FRJPAY JohnNborg (6) E.

George Dusette, the package of dynamite \n wrestling circles from Boston has been signed by Promoter Fred Kohler to Wrestle Leon KJrllenko, the Mad Russian next Friday night in the Lake County' Stadium, in Round Lake Park, Illinois. The clash will be to a two out of three fill verdict with a sixty minute time limit. Added to this attractive windup will be * match between two midgets in a.one fall thirty minute time limit bout. Pancho, the Bull and Little Beaver, the Indian are the two little fellows to put spice into Friday's Lake County 8tadtum card. There are about thirty-five midgets wrestling around the nation aQd Promoter Fred Kohler has signed the top pair in Ban<;bo the Bull and Little Beaver. Getting back to the main event, Dusette is aiming for a match with Verne Gagne,-holder of the junior heavyweight title as recognized , by the N.W.A. The wins so far chalked up by The Boston Strong Boy are impreasive enough to gain a title chance at Gagne, However, in facing Klrilenko, the easterner meets the toughest foe he has signed to wrestle to date. Kirilenko, ha» been a stumbling block to junior heavyweights in this territory. The Mad Russian is an unethical wrestler and his turbulent tactics have bulled the several opponents he haa met to date. However, Dusette declares he will not be scared of these tacUca. 'A he gets tough", exclaims Dusette, "I'll Just get tougher and I believe my full nelson can down Kirilenko. I have been facing just as equally rough opponent's as is Kirilenko and I have not backed down." Two other matches have been signed by Kohler for the Friday's card. In one, Lee Savoldl, of the east wrestles Bob Clay, of Oklahoma and Ned Taylor meets the new sensation "The Chest". The latter has a chest expansion of fifty nine inches and has been creating terror among his foes in the west. Taylor's experience can be counted on to give The Chest a rough battle. m %EGAL NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN by the Board of Education of School District No. 15 in the County of McHenry, State of Illinois, that a tentative budget and appropriation ordinance for said School District for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1951, will be on file and conveidently available to public inspection at the Office of the Superintendent of Schools from and after 12:00 o'clock M„ 3rd day of August, 1951, at McHenry in this School District.- Notice is further given hereby that a public hearing on said budget and appropriation ordinance will be held at 8:00 o'colck P.

Perstna! Dalits In flmri Riso; Ooublt 1948 Fifurn In the period since the end oA World War II, the American people as a whole have gone info debt to buy homes and consumer's gooda at a greater rate than ever befoift according to an analysis of figure# Compiled by Government and private sources. At a matter of fact, the increase in personal debt in the aggregate In the five-year period ending last December was by itself substantial ly larger than the total of such deb^f outstanding both at the end of 1943, when the postwar rise began, or ^ any previous year for which records are available. The total of in»\ dividual debt in selected forms of personal borrowing added up to $79,5 billions at the end of 1950, a rise of $44.8 billions, or 129 per cent, from the $34.7 billions owed at the end of 1945. Practically a quarter of this, record increase took p l a c e i n t h e y e a r 1 1 0 0 a l o n e . M , ' I Much of thisS over-all debt in- I crease may have been the natural' result of an interplay of factorf . such as the great advance in in* comes in recent years, the mark* edly higher price level, and the inevitable desire of the people t# splurge after the long period of austerity and self-denial during World Waf II. Nor, past standp - ards, is the current level of aggregate personal debt abnormally high in proportion to total personal disposable income. Nonetheless, more individual saving and less spending are essential to help meet the demands of today's emergency. Thus the extent and rapidity of the rise In personal debt, with their impact on an already swollen spending stream, provide a background to the moves for tighter borrowing terms and for curbing credit expansion in general* as a major weapon to combat th^f strong inflationary pressures released by the Korean war and the mticipated impact of the nation's rearmament effort. Steel Salea Sales of automobiles and house* hold goods made largely of steel attained higher levels in 1950 than in any previous year. For several important items in this field salea were twice as large as in 1940. D4P liveries of steel t</ manufacturers of automobiles, appliances and a few other household items in tha first 10 months of 1950 were over 13.8 million net tons, exceeding tha shipments to these industries in all of 1949 by nearly 1.6 million tons and surpassing all of 1940 by mora than 5.5„ million tons. For the full year of 1950 It is estimated that shipments of steel to makers of tha foregoing types of goods was lb milt lion tons or more, approximately twice as much as a decade earlier. lama Check ijourfMK JACOB FRITZ Realtor Till!PHONE McHENRY 17 JOIKSBVM, Representing The Travelers Fire Insurance Company, Hartforc MID - SUMMER CLEARANCE 4 1 SAVINGS UP TO 50% 103 .Bivtrside Drive GEQRGE PHONE 459 McHenry, I1L
