"EARL WALSH" So I Hear 1928 MCHS Football You men will have a good chance to take the little woman out of the kitchen at least a couple of times in November. On Wednesday, Nov. 12 the Zion Lutheran Church will serve the famous annual chicken dinner. On Saturday, Nov. 15th, members of the Ringwood United Methodist Church will serve their also famous annual roast beef dinner. You gals will also be in­ terested in knowing that both churches will . sponsor bazaars. Gifts for Christ­ mas. Many of the handmade and homemade. Lest the girls give you the idea that they are putting these dinners together, just look around when you get there. You will see men. Men working. Time marches on and changes come to our fair city. After long years on Green St., "Schmitty's" barber shop will close this week and a beauty parlor will take over. Irvin Schmitt opened a shop in Ringwood maybe a half century ago. After four or five years, he moved to McHenry and had a shop in a section of the building now occupied as a card and gift shop. Jacob Diedrich owned the building at that time. When John Dreymiller decided to retire, "Sch­ mitty" purchased the premises where he operated so many years. The move from Ringwood to McHenry was a good me. After all, the going rate for haircuts in Ringwood was 35 cents. Barbers in McHenry were in clover with 50 cents. "Schmitty" retired a few years ago, but came back. I was his first customer when he came here from Ringwood and his final when he closed the door for his previous retirement. It was in the early 20's when our retiree and I worked together on the "sewer gang" that con­ structed the modern system which replaced the little houses out back. You have earned retirement, "Schmitty". Enjoy it. In a prize fight, the referee says, "Shake hands and come out fighting". In the Tuesday night debate between President Carter and Ronald Reagan, they came out fighting and shook hands when it was over. Nick Miller and his wife toured over from Waukegan and called at the Plaindealer office with a picture of the MCHS football team when Bowling Scores PAGE 7 • PLAINDEALER. FRIDAY.

"Brenda" got a shot of the picture so keep an eye peeled for it. Nick graduated from MCHS in 1929. That's a spell back. He remembers Coaches "Mac" McCracken and Gordon Stringer with affection. Both Nick and his wife, a Waukegan girl, enjoy the Plaindealer each issue and read it thoroughly. Mention of Arnold Rauen as the Suerpvisor brought a chuckle to Nick. Said they played ball together when they were boys. (Suppose Arnold was much older). Our visitors see Cousin Eleanor Walsh Young at church real often. And another McHenryite in Waukegan , Ade la ide Perkins (I wouldn't know her married name), is another one mentioned. They used to see George Stenger often before toe Stenger family moved to Florida. What a pleasure it is to have such people come a - callin'. We like it. Nick's wife is a real White Sox fan so, naturally, I urged her to come again. Babep Quick 9 1 S.

C. -- Detroit and Buffalo are the biggest surprises in the Na­ tional Football League this year, with San Diego and Philadelphia solid perform­ ers also. But it's yet early to pre­ dict the outcome of races with any degree of certainty. One of the major 1980 stories would be Detroit's surge to the top-if it continues. One new Ail-American back (Sims of Oklahoma) plus some other improvements has made the Lions respect­ able. Competing teams also point to the Lions' weak schedule, which will help-as it helped Tampa a year ago. This central division race should be interesting, if Tampa and Chicago get into it. The big question at Tampa, as always, is Doug Williams, the quarterback. Ricky Bell has also accom­ plished little as a runner. Coach John McKay and sportscasters generally con­ tinue to say how great Wil­ liams is, and will be, and they should know. They excuse mental lapses by say­ ing this is only Williams' third year. But critics note how hard he throws the ball, even when this isn't neces­ sary, and continuing mental lapses. Boosters say he's being criticized because he's black. That's hotly denied in turn and branded a racial de­ fense. The answer should be­ come clear in 1980 or by 1981-and everyone hopes for Williams the best. He doesn't lack confidence. (Last week, Phil Sitting, N.Y. Giant quarterback, was incorrectly identified as Billy. Billy Sims, of course, is the sensational Detroit Lion back.) * • • Do you know how base­ ball got it's name? At one time bases were marked by stakes, but these frequently caused injuries. They were replaced first by stones, later by sand-filled sacks. Soon the sacks were identi­ fied as "bases," and the game of "baseball" was so named.
