We are always willing and anxious to print those stories if somebody will send them to us. After all, McHenry has big representation on the Marian teams. Hie Marian High five scored 95 points against Harvard -- and lost! Imagine a high school team scoring that many points and losing the game. Just goes to show that basketball is in high gear these days. LITTLE LEAGUE-- Remember ths notice on Little League meeting Monday night, Feb. 10, 7:3tfp.m. in the City Hall. Organization for the season starts and helpers are needed. Now the majors have a Baseball Commissioner. Next, we wonder is the players will strike or go to spring training. Hope they work out their problems before the fans go on strike. We are among those who get mighty disturbed with these take overs in our institutions of higher learning. Maybe our schools need some changes, but let's not make them through demands. Discussions we would go for -- When we see a minority group take over by force, it strikes us they should be removed by force. SPORTS Warhawks Bomb Our Warrior Five, 65-40 Last Friday night was a bad day at black rock for the Warriors of McHenry. The North Chicago Warhawks, strengthened by the semester return of stalwart Joe Walls, completely smothered the scrappy, but outmanned Warriors, 65-40. The ball game was a case of the smaller, outgunned McHenry quintet up against a rapidly improving squad from the lakefront. The Warriors could manage only a 27% shooting average from the floor against the Warhawks spectacular 56%, and we were outrebounded to the tune of 38-26. The North Chi cagoans turned loose their vaunted fast break against McHenry, and with Walls clearing the boards and Brewer and Rowell handling the sphere, it was curtains for the Warriors. Gary Fairchild once again did yeoman work on the glass while also leading the Warrior scoring, but it was too little when stacked up against a terrific defense, superb shooting, and blazing team speed.

"Operation Deep Freeze" was a big success with some twentysix boys participating and some fathers too, by golly. These rough characters even stayed overnight and from what I have been able to observe, no one suffered so that means everyone was "prepared", which means you're all a credit to s couting in general and to Troop 131 in particular. The basement of the First United Methodist church was a real beehive of activity this past Monday night. Besides the regular meeting of the troop, there was a committee meeting. The troop hosted a meeting of representatives from other troops of the immediate area and George Brand, the official Scout executive from headquar-.. ters put of Rockford. The meeting had to do with sustaining membership. This means that all of the good citizens in the immediate area will be given the opportunity to share in scouting financially. If anyone would like to do a little more toward this great gang of boys, contact Jack Patzke, troop committee chairman, 5111 W. Fountain lane, McHenry.

Four Thousand Mallard And 2,000 Black Ducks Banded This Winter Four thousand mallards and 2,000 black ducks wintering in southern Illinois have now been banded. This is the quota fotfr banding in this section of Illinois during the winter months. The Bird Banding Office, U. S. Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife, Laurel,, Md., establishes the quota. Information obtained through banding helps establish hunting regulations. Personnel of the Game Division of the Illinois Department of Conservation trapped and banded the migratory birds at the Union County Waterfowl Management Area near Ware. Aluminum rings were placed on the legs of mallards in eight days. On the most productive day, 1,365 mallards were banded. About 10 days were required to trap and band the black ducks. They are not as common as mallards in the Mississippi Flyway. To date, approximately 4,000 Canada geese out of a quota of 10,000 have been banded. The remaining geese will be marked SPACESAVER . .. Versatile water carriers for sailors, campers and outdoor sport e n t h u s i a s t s are made from tough Tenite polyethylene, collapse when not in use. before the spring migration begins. The ratio of young birds to adults found in the trapped sample is indicative of the percentage of young geese found in the entire wintering population. The birds are caught in huge traps baited with corn. Over 90,000 ducks and geese have been banded in southern Illinois since the program was started in the early 1950s. About 25,000 ducks were banded in 30 days in the mid-1950s, when the duck population was at its peak and included a large number, of young birds. A federal permit is required to trap and band migratory birds. The numbered strips of metal are important in determining migration routes, inestablishing annual mortality rates and in many other aspects of waterfowl management. The first large scale banding of waterfowl in the United States took place in Illinois. Frederick Lincoln, noted ornithologist, banded about 6,000 wood ducks on and adjacent to what is now the Sanganois-Knapp Island Waterfowl Management Area near Browning in 1922 and 1923. Wood ducks, the only species of duck that nests in Illinois in great numbers, are still being banded. This year^ 403 were marked at the Mermet sarea in Massac county and 241 were banded on the Union County area.
