Randy will write a column to appear each Wednesday, also covering athletic contests. Scott covered the varsity football game at Grayslake and appears well able to handle his assignments. Found quite a stack of reports on our desk Monday morning, but finally waded through it in time to go home for a little nourishment. We don't refer to it as the sports page any longer. It is now the sports section. Old Timers of county league baseball played golf Sunday at the Hunter Country Club in Richmond, then sat down to sink the choppers into prime rib Conversation and good fellowship permeated the room Sorry to say there wasn't the large crowd expected. Harry and Grace Stilling toured down from Lake Mills, Wis. to enjoy the day. Harry was a hustling player for the Shamrocks. If memory is correct, Grace was the official score keeper Ted Pitzen and Lorraine, their son John and a lovely young lady enjoyed par­ ticipating in the good time. Ted was one of the Old Time Tigers in a day when the Tigers were hard to tame This could be a big event if more people got into the act and started promoting earlier next year Sonny Katzenberg has been carrying the load, but will welcome more help next year. Elroy Fitzgerald was there with a keen memory of games most of us have long since forgotten Who's that knocking at our door? When we went to find out, there stood two fellows (let's say on the husky side > holding large cardboard signs covering their faces. When they lowered the cards, we saw it was "Biff" Meyer holding the one with the printed words "Cub Fans Have Come Out of The Bushes". j' • i i Another former McHenryite, Donald Hayes, had a "Go-Go White Sox" greeting. We let him come in! Their visit was all too short. Hope they will come again -- SOON SHOPPING - If the -1-- ' ham, snooty PING - e pigs knew the price of they would really be Often think it would be better not to listen to weather reports. They tell us that, after a hot September, we can expect a long, hard winter. Weathermen. Who needs them? The Chicago Bears are the talk of the sports world after beating the Detroit Lions last Sunday by a score of 19-0. The acquistion of Golden Richards has given the Bears a big boost. They are going to win more games with him than without him SPLASHED! Man, did I get splashed (not smashed). Waiting to make a left turn from Richmond Road onto Broad St., the car and I both got a bath with murky water. There were only two vehicles to wait for, but the driver pulled onto the shoulder and hit a big puddle My right window was down so the inside of the car and the outside of me got soaked While the splasher drove merrily down the street, I tried to recover from the shock. That driver got my blessing Want to remind you that the Warrior football game this week at Cary will be played Saturday afternoon Sweeps Johnsburg Tavern Old Bridge Wins 16-Inch Title The Old Bridge softball club defeated Johnsburg Tavern 7-6 Tuesday night to win the McHenry Men's 16-inch league title The win gave the Bridge a three game sweep in the best of ifive series i A two-out, two-run homerun Jay Tom Les in the bottom of the final inning won the game for ithe Bridge It was the second Iplayoff championship in the jast three years • The winners become the first !team to win the 12-inch league FORMAL WEAR RENTALS for ALL OCCASIONS alt SStowt 121 4 Y Gr«*n Si..
