McHENRY ICE CREAM COMPANY WHOLESALE PHONE 79-M CARY PROVES EASY LOCALS TRIM VISITORS EASILY BY COUNT OF STft f' • DAVISON ALLOWS OPPONENTS BUT THREE HITS--WILLIAMS FAILS TO STOP HOME LADS In spite of the fact that McHenry wont thru orte of the most miserable innings that the team has suffered this season, they experienced very little trouble in setting down the Cary outfit here last Sunday afternoon wh<>n the home crew tucked away a 6 to 1 victory. Maager, who at ofte time was considered good enough to perform the mound duty for the Chicago Firemen, one of the best semi-pro teams that Chicago has ever produced, started the slabbing duties for the visitors, hut was sent to the bench in the sixth inning after the locals had pounded him for three hits in the preceding round and had already connected for a double in the sixth when he gave way to Joe Williams of the Chicago Cermaeks. Williams succeeded in retiring the side without any damage in the sixth, but in the next round McHenry also got to him for a pair of hits, which, together with a base on balls and some very bad baseball, produced two more runs. Davison, who had pitched a game in the factory league at Waukegan on Saturday, occupied the mound for the home team and delivered one of his ! season's best games. He allowed the ! opposing team but three hits, all of j these coming in the seventh and eighth innings. j Kern, McHenry's second baseman, I had a perfect day with the willow, I getting a single and three doubles in ! four trips to the pl&te. His steal of ' third base in the seventh was also a piece of work that is worthy of special mention. | Foxy Rossiter of Cary got away j with a play in the fourth which for ! a time so upset the McHenry infield tliat it looked as if the afternoon's pastime would be turned into a real , farce instead of a ball game. You : will read of the play in our story of j the game by innings, which follows: ! FIRST INNING: Harrison was j thrown out by Kingsley. Oldfield's fly was pulled down by Walczek. | Adams skied to Repas. No hits, no ; runs. | McHENRY: Gross out, Oldfield to i Rossiter. Kern singled thru third ! and took second on Kosier's neat sacrifice, Balder to Rossiter. Bailey lifted to Kucher in center. One hit, no runs. SECOND INNING: Rossiter was thrown out by Kern. Walczek raced up behind Davison and whipped out Ginners after Davison had knocked down the batter's hard rap. Kucher was safe on Kern's error and took second when Davison and Gross collided on Hoeft's high infield fly. Before the two men were able to get straightened out the men on the foot paths executed a double steal, Kucher going to third and Hoeft to second'. Balder ended the round when he was thrown out by Kern. No hits, no runs. McHENRY: Walczek out, Ginners to Rossiter. Rogers singled to center. Repas and Kingsley both struck out. One hit, no runs. THIRD INNING: Maager drew a walk. Harrison lifted to Rogers in right. Oldfield forced Maager at second when he grounded to Kern. Evafts lifted to Repas in center. • No hits, no runs. McHENRY: Davison' fouled to Balder. Gross shot a single thru the pitcher's box. Kern put Gross on third with a double to left. A very peculiar play came up at this time. With Gross on third and Kern on second, Kosier hopped a fast one down to Harrison, on third. Gross started for home on the play and Harrison naturally played for him. To the surprise of the fans Balder made no. effort to tag the runner coming into the place, but turned and shot the ball to Rossiter. Balder got his man on first all right, but it cost him a run to pull the "honer." The play sent Kern to third. Bailey skied to Ginners. Two hits, one run. FOURTH INNING: And here the fun began. Rossiter hit at a low, bad ball for his third strike. The ball, after hitting Kingsley's mit, bounced •ff to one side and for a half minute or so was lost to the catcher. When Kingsley finally did locate the ball Rossiter was resting on second. Ginners was safe on Walczek's fumble. Both runners advanced a base on Gross' fumble and just to keep up the comedy Bailey allowed Hoeft's roller to go thru him. These three errors put Rossiter across the plate, while Ginners took third and Kucher second. With the bases loaded and no one out, things surely did look gloomy for McHenry. But like a flash, the locals shook off the jink and started playing the brand of ball which has made them the winning team they are today. Balder lifted to Bailey and Maager hit into a double killing when he rolled to Walczek, Kern and Bailey completing the double play. No hits, one run. McHENRY: Walczek singled to left and took second on Rogers' sacri fice, Ginners to Rossiter. Walczek i was then caught off of . second by one of Balder's snap pegs. Repas fanned. One hit, no runs. FIFTH INNING: Gross threw out Harrison, Oldfield lifted to Kern and Evans skied to Repas. No hits, no runs. » McHENRY: Kingsley out, Oldfield to Rossiter. Davison drew a pass and went to second on Gross' single past j third. Kern's double scored Davison and sent Gross to third. Gross and Kern then scored on Kosier's double to center. Bailey lifted to Evans m left and Walczek went out on Ik fly to Kucher in center. Three hits, three *uns. SIXtH INNING: Rossiter rolled to Bailey. Ginners was thrown out by Gross and Kucher met his fate via Kern and Bailey. Davison pitched but four balls in this inning. No hits, no runs. McHENRY: Rogers shot a single to center. Exit Maager, enters Joe Williams. Repas walked. Kingsley lifted to Ginners and Davison hit into a double play by rolling to Harrison, Ginners and Rossiter doing the rest. One hit, no runs. SEVENTH INNING: Hoeft out, Kern to Bailey. Balder connected for Cary's first safe hit by planting a single past short. Williams struck out. Harrison singled just back of third, the hit sending Balder to second. Oldfield lifted to Repas in center. Two hits, no runs. . ' McHENRY: Evans, who had exchanged places in the outer garden with Hoeft, cut off a double, if not a triple, when he raced to right center and pulled in Gross.' line drive. It was a nifty catch. Kern doubled to left arid stole third. Kosier struck out. Bailey walked. Walczek shot a single to right, the hit scoring Kern, while Bailey scored when ^he ball fell out of Evans' hand just as he went to throw it into the infield. Rogers skied to Kucher in center. Two hits, two runs. EIGHTH INNING: Evans was thrown out by Walczek. Rossiter singled past first. Ginners and Kucher both fanned. One hit, no runs. McHENRY: Repas out, Ginners to Rossiter. Kingsley skied to Oldfield, who raced back in short left to pull down the fly. Davison out, Rossiter to Williams. No hits, no runs. NINTH INNING: Hoeft was thrown out by Gross. Balder fouled to Kingsley and Williams lifted to Repas. No hits, no runs. The tabulated score: Cary . „ R. H. PO. A.

McIIENRY AT CRYSTAL ' LAKE NEXT SUNDAY The McHenry baseball team, accompanied by a large delegation of fans, will travel dowri to Crystal Lake next Sunday afternoon, where they will: take on the Lakers for their second encounter of the season. McHenry and Crystal Lake met on the local diamond op July 4, at which time the home club won 4 to 0. Since this meeting, how* ever, Crystal Lake has put together practically a new team and from reports the Lakers are out to hand McHenry a real drubbing. Well fans^ let's go down and see. * aA^noTDEPARTHENT ADDITIONAL EXCHANGE Tax assessors of the r-r.rc called before the McHenry county board of review last week to give reasons for changes in assessments. Hock & Company, clothing merchants at Grayslake, suffered a loss estimated at from $1,000 to $1,500 during a recent evening when their place of business was broken into. The city council of Crystal Lake, in a special meeting held on Tuesday evening of lqpt week, passed its annual appropriation ordinance, the total amount appropriated to carry on the expense of the city for the coming year being $28,400. Walter Wallace, a boarder at the Mrs. Nettie Kitter home, two miles west of Area, succeeded in saving four persons in the home by leaping thru a second story window early last Saturday morning when he awoke to find the house on fire. The house was totally destroyed. The Farmers' New Era Telephone company, which operates in Ringwood, Richmond, Hebron and other points in these territories, is apparently doing a very nice business. At the regular semi-annual meeting, as held in the Company's offices at Hebron last week, a semi-annual dividend of four per cent was declared. A verdict for $5,000 damages was returned by a jury in the McHenry county court at Woodstock last Friday evening in the case of the Village of Fox River Grove vs. John A. and Helen Smith, which was brought by the village to condemn a piece of property at Fox River Grove thru which route 19 is to pass. Following the course as recently taken by the McHenry county bankers to give their employes a half holiday each week, a petition was circulated at Hebron last week frith the result that fourteen business men of that vil lage have agreed to close their respective places every Thursday afternoon during the month of August. As the result of the activities of the Crystal Lake Community club, the Chicago & Northwestern railroad has added an additional icoach to train No 529 leaving Chicago at 4:00 p. m daily. The train has always been overcrowded in the past and the additional coach has been added in order to supply seats for all passengers. The Holmes Disappearing Bed company, which recently opened a new plant at Woodstock, paid its first dividend to preferred stockholders on July 1. The distribution was made at the rate of seven per cent. The company is doing a very fine business. In fact, more beds were shipped during the month of July than the preceding thirty days. Dr. E. A. Mead, dentist, has been appointed as postmaster at Hebron to succeed Henry Earl, who has held the office for more than two terms, having first been appointed on Jan. 1, 1914. The new' appointee will assume office tomorrow, Aug. 1. The appointment came thru the recommendation of Congressman Frank R. Reid. There were three candidates for the post, the other two being Dr. M. D. Brooks and Raymond Scholl. The Chicago, Palatine & Wauconda railroad, which operates between Palatine and Wauconda, has been sold to W. C. Ross of Chicago, who has already taken over the management of the mad. The sale price was iftK/wx), £35,000 oi which was cash and $50,000 in preferred stock. The purchaser has already started out to rehabilitate the road and make all necessary improvements and repairs. It is Mr. Ross' plan to accommodate the passengers by the installation of two large gas cars, which will meet all trains of the C. A N. W. railway at Palatine, while freight and express will be hauled with the two locomotives now in use. True bills, charging Fred Dubenstein and his son, William, farmers residing near Genoa City, Wis., with kidnapping Philip Denny, Jr., a thirteen- year-old Chicago school boy, have been returned by a state grand jury in Chicago. The child's parents told the grand jury that the Dubensteins took the boy to their home on April 25 and kept him there until June 10. They were unable to supply a motive for the kidnapping, they said. They also told of having employed private detectives, who traced the boy to the Wisconsin farm, but that their son had disappeared just as they were arranging to make the requisition. The Dubensteins likewise have disappeared, they said. •ONE Of AMUSEMENT Telephone No. I08-R. ••••* SIMON STOFFEL Insurance agent for all classes of property in the best companies.
