ASSESSMENT NOTICES SENT OUT AND BLGIN ROAD READY FOR LETTING IN MONTH Since the public hearing on the proposition to pave Green street and El gin road, from the intersection of Green and Elm street south to connect the Main street paving, many have been heard to ask the question as to how soon this stretch would be ready for public letting. For the information of those who may not be acquainted with the preliminary work to be done before even the bids for this district can be advertised for we might say that the assessment notices which go to the various property owners residing along these streets are off the press and were mailed out last week. Fifteen days must intervene "between the time that these notices are placed into the mail and the day for the court hearing at Woodstock. According to this,- the earliest date that can be set aside for this hearing is Monday, June 29. Should everything turn out all right at this hearing, as most of our citizens now feel that they will, bids for die paving of this district will be advertised for on or about July 1st, the public opening of bids and awarding of contract will follow two weeks later By this it may be seen that it will be the middle of next month before work on this district can possibly start. Taking it for granted that there will be no delay on account of objections to the improvement it will be late in the summer before the Green street and Elgin road jobs have been completed. JOHNSBUKG MAN GRANTED STAY IN SENTENCE John Freund, farmer residing near Johnsburg, has been released from the McHenry county jail to which he was sentenced a short time ago after he had been arrested and entered a plea of guilty to a charge of operating a still and selling moonshine whiskey. In answer to a petition signed by a number of Mr. Freund's relatives and friends Judge Barnes granted the prisoner a stay in sentence and at the same time cut the fine and jail sentence in half. Thfe original fine was $2,000 and a jail sentence of six months. The fine was cut to $ 1,000 and the jail sentence to ninety days. Mr. Freund has already served a part of his jail sentence and will return to serve the balance after the summer's work on his farm. Iv T• > ? ' *t' •ft-'- & • % . : • . . ';.

AURORATHE WINNER LOCALS DROP CLOSE ONE W AU RORA SEMI PROS ROTH'S BIG BAT RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST OF AURORA'S RUNS --McHENRY RALLY LATE Roth licked the McHenry Grays almost single handedly at Aurora last Sunday afternoon when, with his big black bludgeon, he drove in four runs and paved the way for the fifth which gave the down river outfit th^ long end of a five to four count. Big Tim Murchison occupied the kill for the home team and got by Very nicely for four innings, altho his mates tried hard to make the going bad for him in the opening round. Up until the fifth inning McHenry was only able to nick the big fellow's delivery but twice but starting with the fifth and continuing on thru the succeeding four innings the Grays started pecking away at big Tim's Offerings with such marked regularity as to cause, him, his team mates and fans more than a little concern. However, he bore down in the ninth and thus saved himself a lot of embarrassment. Davison pitched his usual strong game but, like a week previous, he got off to a bad start. Three of the Aurora hits came in the initial round which helped the visitors to two runs, a lead which ^AJled the Aurora fans' hearts wth the fondest of hopes. Like the good pitcher he is, Davison never let this happening bother him in the least- He went right in there the next inning and pitched real ball. Even the blows which came in the fourth and fifth failed to dishearten him. Jess, in the last three innings, displayed his old time speed and cunning, Aurora getting but one hit after the fifth inning. How it happened: FIRST INNING: Kosier was safe on Wright's fumble. Gross was safe on an attempted sacrifice when he tapped down towards first base. Murchison's easy toss to Croake was dropped by the latter. It sure was bad baseball. Rossiter struck out. Kern shot a fly into short center which dropped for a safe hit. Kosier, of course, waited to see whether or not the fielder would get under the ball ahd therefore got a late start and was held at third. With the bases loaded and one out Rogers bounded down to Wright at short, Kosier being cut off at the plate. Repas ended the round by grounding to Paige and was thrown out at first. One hit, no runs. AURORA: Lee out, Davison to Rossiter. Croake fanned. Israel shot a single past second. On the first ball pitched Roth shot a hard one which sailed and sailed and finally found a resting place just over the left field fence. A beautiftn drive, to say the least. Wehrli singled to right and then stole second. Heath skied to Repas. Three hits, two runs. SECOND INNING: Brunke and Kingsley both struck out. Davison singled past third and took second when Lee fumbled Kosier's grounder, Kosier also reaching first on the error. Gross forced Kosier at second by grounding to Wright at short. One hit, no runs AURORA: Paige lifted to Brunke. Wright skied to Kosier and Murchison struck out. No hits, no runs. THIRD INNING: Rossiter was thrown out by Paige. Kern skied to Wehrli in right and Rogers lifted to Israel -in center. No hits, no runs. AURORA: Lee rolled to Rossiter. Croake dropped a single into center and then was caught in an attempt to steal. Israel fanned. One hit, no runs. FOURTH INNING: Repas was thrown out by Lee. Brunke out, Paige to Croake. Kingsley drew a walk and Davison lifted to Israel in center. No hits, no runs. AURORA: Roth smashed a two-ply shot into center but held the bag while Wehrli was being thrown out by Davison. Roth, however, trotted home on Heath's single past third. Heath took second on the throw to home plate. Paige was thrown out by Grose and Wright rolled to Rossiter. Two hits, one run. FIFTH INNING: Kosier struck out. Gross singled to center and was forced at second when Rossiter tapped to Croake. Kern put Rossiter on second with a blow thru short. Rogers struck out. Two hits, no runs. Not so good. AURORA: Murchison was given a big hand by the crowd as he stepped to the plate and obliged with a two bagger to left center. He rode to third on _jee's sacrifice, Kern to Rossiter. Murchison, apparently in no hurry to score, never made an attempt to register when Gross made a wide throw to first after cleanly fielding Croake's bounder. It should have been an easy out. Israel lifted to Kosier in short left. Murchison still made no move to score. Roth then came up and cleaned the bases with a two-bagger to center Wehrli lifted to Repas in center. A damaging round for McHenry. Two hits, two runs. SIXTH INNING: Repas struck out. Brunke singled past third and took second on Kingsley's single to left. Both runners moved up a base on Davison's single to center. Brunke then scored on Roster's sacrifice fly to cen-| ter. Gross lifted to Heath in left field. Three hits, one run. AURORA: Heath was thrown out by Brunke. Paige out, Kern to Rossiter. Wright drew a pass but wfts forced at second when Murchison rolled to Kern, No hits, no runs. SEVENTH INNING: Rossiter started the inning by striking out. Kern tripled to the score board in deep center. Wright, Aurora short-stop in going out to take the throw from the center fielder, turned his ankle and had to retire frotn the galne.
