WARREN NINE WINS EXTRA-INNING 3-2 GAME FROM MCHS ' Our high school baseball team was well on the way to victory at Warren ' Tuesday afternoon when things happened to set the boys back 3 to 2. Jerry Long had a no-liitter going with a 2 to 0 lead until the lait half of a scheduled 7- inning game. Hits and errors led to a tie, then Warron put over the clincher in the eighth. Both Long and Caldwell were plenty stingy with hits. Three errors popped up for each team. On Friday afternoon of this week, the Crystal Lake nine will appear on the McHenry diamond. • ' • . ..-PALACE-- (*. O B o'clock »•-- O. Freund, 200-556; Schreiner, 528; Winkel, 505; H.

Entering team- makes this decision on the basis of the entire season of play. Dick has played in 9 out of the 10 games played by the porkies, and has scored 64 fieldi goats, and has made 43 of the 61 free throws he has shot, this means that he has made better then 70 percent of them. He has 171 total points in 9 games which gives him a 19 point per game average. He is equally as good on defense. It is a sure thing that Dick will be back next season. Captain Glen Peterson is the boy who gets the credit ' foi; holding the team together when the going gets rough. When the opponents make trouble for the porkies," it is Glen who comes up with the solution to the problem and the ideas to get back those points. Glen* has played with the Millermen in their last five games and has done a marvelous job at both offense and defense for the porkies. Ray Schmitt is another of the boys who has been with the team the tournament as one of the underdogs, with only 3 victories and 4 losses to their credit, the boys were determined to do everything they could possibly do to come through with the championship. , After, playing .three hard games, in which they defeated Hebron, Crystal .Lake and Cary, their dream had come true. _ Bill Becknell, the high scoring forward froin Wauconda, was one of the main factors Jn winning the ' tournament. His tremendous driving and shooting ability netted him 91 points in three games. Many people remarked about the way he can drive through the defense and ppt the ball on the board and through the rim. He hit 15 out of the 20 free throws he shot, which is a cool 75 percent. Bill Miller would give his right arm to have him back on the team, through the regular season next year. Dick Gibbs, who has been with all through the season. Ray was a little cold on. his offensive play in the tournament, but was one of the best rebounders that We saw in the wjbole tournament. He has better than a 13 point *v?rage in 8 games and is expected U| be back next year also. Dan Sheahan was the boy who ! considered the sensation of the tournament, under the baa ket. He but-rebounded boys who were 3 to 5 inches taller than himpelf. He has also been with the teamt the same amount .of time as Peterson, and they are both expected to be bac^ next AtJXILtA** \ tV , * 1 * , - * * ' ^ A , » »« U JAM f ro> itfww year. V Honk % Miller played the last two games of the tournament for the porkies and did a fine job on defense and in bringing the ball down court. The combination of Miller and Peterson looked as good as it has in the past, when they were with the Co-ops. Mel Gibbs saw little action •nd Bill Miller saw none in the tournament. However, Bill did his "sweating" on the bench, handling the coaches duties. Jerry Gibbs and Dick Stolzke were unable to play in the tournament, do to the high school and college player rule. This was a great lose to the porkies, as they could have made it lots easier on the regular five players, if they were suited. They also plan to play with the porkies nert season. In summing up the tournament we can, truthfully say that the boys were worthy of the title which they won. Others who played with the team during the season were: Lloyd Freund and Jack Justen, both doing a very fine jbb, Frank Draffhorn, Bob Evans, Brian, McCarty, and John M^y- Bob Brennan and Harry Lundy also played (AT the team for a short while. Bill would like to thank Roy Miller for the use of the Coop uniforms during the tournament, Pat Miller for her fine job of score keeping all through the season and Dan Wether for his help in handling the team, also all the people who followed the team.
