J \ PG. 4 - PLAINDEALER - FRI. JAN. V, 1969 Lake Wrestlers McHenry 31-12 By Paul Palmateer * PLAINDEALER PHOTO. Don Reinboldt, No. 51, looks on as he is unable to assist Warrior Bob Hurckes, who despite the pressure, attempts a shot in the 2nd period of last Friday's loss to Crystal Lake. Tonight the Warriors travel to Libertyville. McHenry wrestlers were not at their best Friday night as they met defeat in the West Campus wrestling room. Although the score indicates a "skunking", there were three tied matched and two very close defeats, which, under different circumstances could have led McHenry to victory. The only varsity victors were Mike Antonicelli and Ken Wahl. . Those that had tied matches were Dennis Justen, Paul Voight and Mike Krusr. Chris Borchardt, regular heavyweight and above par wrestler, was sidelined with an injury. -- Varsity Box Score 95 Rogers, (M) lost 7-0 103 Sobacki (M) lost 4-2 112 Justen (M) tieci 120 Hansen (M) lost 5-4 127 Voight (M) tied 133 Krug (M) tied .138 Cristy (M) pinned 145 Laskowski (M) lost 5-2 154 Weingart (M) pinned 165 Wahl (M) won 7-2 180 Antonicelli (M) won 14-2 Hwt.

The next outing will be on Friday nite at home against Libertyville. Come on out and support your team! Earl Walsh SO I HEAR Sports Editor People with a few extra bucks could do much worse than designate a portion to the library. Tuesday noon we joined a large crowd at the annual Chamber of Commerce meeting. That organization is on the sright track toward assisting in the orderly growth of McHenry. The theme seems to be -- speed up the game of baseball. Most of the concern is centered around the pitchers and their monkeyshines around the mound. It does seem to take a lot of jiggling around for some pitchers before they get ready to throw the ball. They have to kick the dirt around, go back to the resin bag, hitch up their pants, run a sleeve over a wet brow, get their signal from the catcher and finally throw the ball. Now can you imagine the problems when the umpire starts counting up to 20 seconds for the pitcher to pitch. When he counts to 10, the batter may suddenly get something in his eye and call time. TTiis can get real tricky. They don't have to change the rules too much for our taste. When we go to a game we like to have a little time between pitches for popcorn, peanuts and conversation. We would like to see the hitting perk up. Those low and away pitches seem to send a lot of batters back to the bench with their heads hanging. Have always said we would like to see a full game played in which the batters could pick out their own pitch and not have to look at the coach for a signal. No. They don't have to change the rules toQ much. Just bring on the sunshine and let 'er rip with "Play Ball". Then,give us our sidekick, Walt Freund, and the world will seem just right. . A couple of meetings attended this w£ek made us proud to be a McHenryite. ' Reports at the McHenry Library meeting Monday night gave assurance of continued interest and extensive use of our library. All age groups are represented. Some say, "Watch McHenry in 10 years". We say5years-- and shudder just a bit. I REMEMBER BY THE OLO TIMER It was through years of persistant effort and the help of many people that McHenry has one of the most unique libraries to be found. It is a little beauty that will have to expand some day.

William Hunsberger, Souderton, Pa.: Do you remember the days when the "medicine show" used to come to town. They regularly traveled a circuit so they showed up in your town every couple of years. The local yokels from miles around would swarm in front of the portable stage awaiting the free entertainment. For the people in the small towns and villages the visit of a medicine show was as attractive as the Radio City Music Hall in New York City is today. Between the acts the owner would take over the stage and peddle his particular "cure-all" elixir and how the local folk would fall for his spiel. Then, too, they'd always sell th& boxes of candy with a surprise gift in every one. The barker even said some had special tickets in them entitling the lucky buyer to the grand prize gift. Of course, no one was ever fortunate enough to find it in their box of candy. Now that we're sophisticated and b e t t e r e d u c a t e d , we look back to those days and wonder how we ever fell for the line of the "medicine man." But, that's all part of the Good Old Days. & MONDAY NITE COMMERCIAL LEAGUE - McHENRY RECREATION E. Steadman 530; D. French 222-567; F. Matthesius 204- 543; D. Mercure 201-578; M. Schmitt 527; W.
