McHenry improved leam Shows Spirit And Hard Play In Nip-And-T ucker Victory was snatched right out of the hands of the Warrior cagers at Woodstock Tuesday night in the closing seconds of the game and the boys had to amble to the showers -reflecting on how they wound up on the short end of a 37 to 35 score. The Warriors were slow in getting thr range in the first quarter as Woodstock moved into a 9 to lead. The boys were popping at the basket, but a free throw by Lawrence and side shot by Walters were the only shots that hit the net -- Warriors Hit --- ' McHenry's attack straightened out as the second quarter opened, passing got sharper and hopes grew bright. Walters hit. So did LaWrence. So did Aim to tie it up at 9-all. A long pass to Aim and his basket sent the Warriors into a lead that see-sawed the rest of the game. McHenry led 19 to 14 as the half ended. To give you an idea of the closeness of the game, the score was never more than three points apart during the last. half. Lawrence, who leds with 11 points, swooped a corner shot through the hoop late in tjie game to give his team a 35 to 32 lead. Wienke then hit a free throw, his only point of the game, to ifcirrow the edge to 35-33. A tip-in follow-up tied it with less than a nfinute to go. The spectators were on their feet and the rafters were ringing. Caution took- over for desperation as Woodstock gaine-d possession of the baVl. McCannon looked ovef the situation from the corner, then dribbled past the defense to sink the winning basket. It was McCannon's only field goal of the game, but it couldn't have come at a better time from his standpoint. -- No Stalling The McHenry boys shoWttd an aptness to correct mistakes throughout the game, but muffed their chances by not going into stalling game to protect their See Burllrigtdn here Friday night.

They are the people who jpaid more for their cars than a Cadillac costs--and stilt didn't get a Cadillac. You see--there are five manufacturers of motor cars ' who produce a total of twenty models which-actually cost -- more than the lowest-priced Cadillac. And during recent years, hundreds of thousands of people have taken title to these higher-priced models. Surely, a large percentage of these owners did not understand, at the time of purchase, how little a Cadillac can cost. They assumed that a Cadillac must cost more --because of its reputation. So they paid for a Cadillac --and still failed to get the things a Cadillac provides. They failed to get the irresistible performance of its great master high-compression engine ... the soft, gliding ride that makes every road a better road . . . and thl wonderful prestige which marks the Cadillac owner, throughout the civilized world, as a man distinctly apart. Surely, they'wpn't want to miss all this again.
