On The Sidelines PAGE 7 - PLAINDKAI.FR - FRIDAY. OCTOBER 13. 1978 £: By Dick Robbitt Tonight's the Annual Homecoming game at McCracken FieM. The Warriors will take on the Jacobs High School Gotten Eagles hoping to break the jinx that has plagued the Warriors on homecoming for a long time. With the bonfire and parade just memories, Coach Bill Day's eleven will get down to the business of winning another football game. The Warriors played alert football last Friday night at Dundee. They pounced on five Cardunal fumbles, turning three of those recoveries into touchdowns. f It is true they were guilty of several infractions that may have cost them another touchdown or two, but they played it tough when necessary and spoiled the Cardunal homecoming. There was great improvement in the offensive line, which paved the way for the scores. Overall the Warriors looked tough, and we hope they continue the same way tonight. It was announced before the game last Friday that it was the last night game ever to be played on Spain Field. I'm sure that all visiting coaches and teams had a happy smile with that announcement. Spain Field has not been one of the better lighted fields in this part of the state the last ten years. So another era has passed. Dundee will play their games next season at the High School in Carpentersville. Coach Chuck Cuda's McHenry High goifers won the first Fox Valley Championship, when they grabbed the golf crown Tuesday at McHenry Country Club. The Warriors easily outdistanced the other seven schools to win going away. They finished their season undefeated and only a tie with Prospect marred their record. Warrior fans are hoping they qualified in the District held yesterday in Waukegan, so they can journey to Rockford Monday for the Sectional. It would be a nice way to finish by going to the State Finals in Springfield next weekend Today and tomorrow Coach Gary Gray's girls tennis team will play in the conference meet in Dundee. Although the Warriors are not favored to win, they could put on a good show, and have a hand in the championship. "Hutch's" young and inexperienced cross country team gained some valuable experience last week in Peoria. The Invitational held in Peoria is one of the largest cross country meets in the country. Having four freshmen on the squad is not going to win you a championship, but they will be better runners because of their competing in that meet. Speaking of cross country, four former Warriors are" now participating on the college level. John Mclnerney, an All American, is at Eastern Illinois University. Last years number one runner Mike Burmann, is at Northern Illinois. Andy Oakley is at Northwestern University and Greg O'Halleran is running for Bradley University. There is a chance that these former Warriors will be competing against one another later this fall in the Illinois Colleges Open Let's go on record and pick the four to tie for first place The girls field hockey team and volleyball team are in full swing in Fox Valley conference play. With no conference tourney, the girls will go by season records in the conference Crystal I^ake South cracked my crystal ball last week when they upset Cary 13 to 7. So we will try again this week Warriors to break the homecoming jinx and defeat Jacobs in a close one Woodstock to roll again over Crystal Lake South Dundee to defeat rival Crown, and the Tigers of Crystal Lake Central to beat Cary Grove Marengo to defeat the Skyhawks, although the Hawks played some good football last Saturday. In a toss up I'll pick St. Ed's to beat Marian Central The Green Wave are tough at home. New Type Vacation Where can you jog thin wintei accompanied by the chattering of green parrots aa you run through verdant coffee fielda? If you gueaaed El Salvador, and alao gueaaed thia tiny Central American country ia a jogger's paradise, you are right on both counts. U.S. joggers (and there are seven million of them)are dis­ covering that the conatant pleasant weather throughout the winter season and the beauty of the Salvadorian countrywide make this friendly country a perfect spot for this new type of vacation. And it's a great way to learn a country and ita people. Don't feel shy about in­ troducing your personal jog­ ging routine to El Salvador; jogging is already big there, due to a group of running zealot* called the Amateur Aerobic Committee. They sponaor jogging "testa" and in November, are bringing Dr. Kenneth Copper, father of aerobica, from the U.S. to lecture and take part in a croaa-country jogging "teat." Aa you greet the red sun- riae and jog on a mountain path or through verdant hills you may not see a single car during your runs. Traffic more likely will consist of native women with baaketa balanced on their heads or wood­ cutters with loads of tree limbs on their shoulders. A jog through the streets or parks of many U.S. cities can be fraught with danger, but not so in El Salvador where no one ever bothers runners. AM one Salvadorian put it: "Even our dogs are more gentle than North American dogs." Further information on jogging and other attractions in El Salvador can be obtained from the El Salvador Tourist Commiaaion, P.O. Box 729, Radio City Station, New York, NY 10019.

A second incident of this nature occurred Sunday of that same weekend in McHenry. A woman looked out of her window and saw a suitcase which had been flung in her yard In it were three newborn kittens, eyes not opened yet And stil l another incident occurred the next day in Woodstock A woman lound a plastic laundry basket beside her rural mailbox In it were five tiny kittens alw>ut tour weeks old Does it make any sense to penalize the helpless This kitten's leg is in a cast and is healing nicely.

WHAT'S NEW Cookware Primer For Brides More powerful, efficient hammer has sealed cavity (in the head) partly filled with steel shot When ham mer is raised, shot presses against rear chamber, then moves forward on impact Twice power of a solid ham mer. with no rebounds Given the fact that about 2-1/4 million marriages are predicted for this year; tha,t the fall and winter months are popular wedding seasons; and that there's a growing interest in "Cooking from scratch," some guidelines for selecting cookware for first homes is both timely and useful. Cookware is an invest­ ment that will be used every day for a long time to come, so it 's wise to check out per formance as well as appearance before buying. To begin with, most cook ware is made of metal -- aluminum, cast iron, stainless steel 'and copper -- each has its attributes Aluminum is by far the most popular metal for cook ware for lots of good reasons. It 's an excellent conductor of heat; cooks food fast and with out hot spots Also, i t 's l ight weight and relatively inexpen sive Available either in a pol­ ished bright finish or clad in porcelain enamel in a range of popular colors, new aluminum cookware is attractively styled with many pieces designed to go from range to table Another plus in some premium aluminum cookware is a thick, non-stick surface of "SilverStone" that resists staining, chipping or peeling; it releases food easily and is a snap to clean Cast iron cookware has been around for centuries and,, with proper care, can last for centuries It , too, is an excel lent conductor of heat and cooks food evenly The draw backs are that it is extremely heavy and often rusts, so it must be,fiamperecl and season ed frequently Some new iron cookware is being made with a porcelain enamel coating which eliminates the. rusting problem but which adds to itfc weight as well as the price. Stainless steel is sleek look ing, strong and durable but a poor conductor of heat, prone to hot spots and scorching. To overcome this, most stain " less cookware is combined with other metals Some have copper bottoms, others a core of carbon steel or aluminum, which helps to distribute heat evenly. Stainless steel must be polished occasionally to keep it looking its best Prices for quality stainless cookware range from high to expensive Copper, though an excel lent metal for cookware. is so expensive as to be out of reach except for professional chefs Some other things to look for when buying cookware • Check the handles; they should be sturdy and easy to Krip • Make sure covers fit snugly to hold in the heat. • Cookware should be made in one piece or con structed so there are no seams or crevices that will make it hard to clean • Bottoms are flat and le vel for best heat distribution Lastly, no matter what cookware you select, read and heed the manufacturer 's use and care instructions, and your skillets and sauce pans should perform deli ciously for years to come.
