PG. 4, SEC. I - PLAINDEALER - AUGUST 3, 1967 Condors Are 1967 Minor League Champions Northern Illinois Lefs look at the mail. Our readers have been writing. Some have phoned. Others have happened to meet us. Most of our dear readers want to let us know how many Cab fans are among us and how great are those Cubs. Nat too many Sox fans have been coming to our rescue so it was especially pleasant to meet the John "Jack" Nihills aad find some real support for our Sox. We have learned that a move is on to blast us with telephone calls the day our Sox drop from first place and the Cubs take over first in their league. That'll be the day! The organizers are Junior Freund and Herb Reihansperger, a couple of dreamers. But, about the mail. Father Baumhofer dropped a note to let us know he understands our problem with certain people and let us know he gets a chuckle out of it all. Dick Rabbitt sent a card from the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum at Cooperstown, N.Y., telling of seeing a picture and display of Chuck Hitler's World Series grand slam home run. Dick says the display is very nice and seemed very proud of our local boy. The Joe Schmitts didn't forget to send a card from the beautiful far northwest. But, they like McHenry for a steady diet. Doesn't everybody? The Pete Justens must be working for the Chamber of Commerce out there in Colorado. We are going to save a beautiful brochure on "Colorful Colorado." Mrs. Justen is still a reader even if we did leat 7out that story of her train ride to Ringwood. i SO I HEAR By Earl Walsh work by a former MCHS athlete, John Rourke. Our congratulations to John and his parents, who must be very proud. John was a hustling athlete and must still be giving it all he has in his present endeavors. Had thought some of taking a ride up to Milwaukee this week, but changed our minds and drove down to Bar revile where everything was quiet. We never guessed it! The boss-{nan, Larry Lund, is a Cub fan. More darn Cub fans coming out Of the woods this year than ever before.
