.fii4 mtCNRY SETS WATCH MAKERS DOWN 11 TO 7 ---- &•%: McHENRY SHOWS THEIR FAITHf lU. FOLLOWERS THAT THEY ^ HETAIN THAT OLD PUNCH ' Still smarting from the sting of the defeat as handed them by the Algon- . qum Indians two Greeks ago McHenry ' went down to Elgin last Sunday afternoon and took out revenge at the hands of the Watchmakers, the score at the end of the ninth inning indicating that our lads had won the contest by a count of 11 to 7. Thus it has been demonstrated once more that baseball, like any other sport, is an uncertainty and one never » can tell just how things will turn out. : Take for instance the three games played by Elgin, Algonquin and McHenry. Three weeks ago Elgin shut out the Algonquin Indians at Elgin by a score of 7 to 0. Two weeks ago Al- ; gonquiri came to McHenry and spanked thfe locals to the tune of 11 to 2 and then, last Sunday, the locals hand the Elginites a 11 to 7 trimming. Now If anyone can figure this out and tell 1 t»';jufet how and why we surely would * be very much indebted to them. Elgin has always displayed a great deal of respect for the McHenry outfit, notwithstanding the fact the Watchmakers handed us an awful trimming one bright summer's day last season. Since that eventfe} day however, our boys have given the Watchmakers real contests. Thus, the Elgin management went out last week and employed the services of one Jack Crangle, former Illinois university star but more recently employed as coach at the Arkansas university. Crangle performed in one of the outer gardens for Elgin during part of last season when he must have made quite a reputation for himself as one of Elgin's sport writers in last Saturday night's Courier opined as how Mr. Crangle's presence would strengthen Elgin's line-up by fifty per cent. Judging from his performance of last Sunday, the former Illinois star may be an almighty good instructor and may know something about baseball but he sure did make a poor job of first basing. As a matter of fact he was exceedingly clumsy and slow and even the Elgin rooters, or a few of them at least, aimost burst their lu^gs in beckoning the management to take him out and allow Budach to take care of the first basing job. Crangle, in spite of these pleas, was allowed to remain, and in the seventh inning relieved Joey Miller who was relegated to the bench as the result of McHenry's lusty wallops. The game itself was not one of the best ever seen in these parts but it satisfied the McHenry fans and also brought gloom into the hearts of Elgin's camp and especially so to those > ! h KA State of Bigness Parallel with the enormous increase 111 wealth of our State has been the i jncrease in strength of our State Ranking system. 4.: « • And keeping pace with and fosterling the growth of this community has been the pleasant accomplishment of .this strong State Bank.

One of the real amusing stunts during the afternoon was the manner that the young and agile Kern slid around Anderson at . third base. Anderson just couldn't get up enough steam to tag his man. My, but didn't it make him mad. Now to tell yoa just what transpired that lovely afternoon. FIRST INNING: Rosier lifted to O'Connor in center. Gross was thrown out by Lee and Tornquist struck out. No hits, no runs. ELGIN: Lee went out on a fotll to Kingsley. Koepping drew a walk and rode to second on Anderson's single to left. Otis' single to right scored Koepping and sent Anderson around tc third. Otis stole second. Anderson then scored and Otis hoofed it to third on Smith's sacrifice* fly to Rogers in right. Olson drew a walk and stole second. Crangle scored the two base runners with a double to center. Crangle then scored on O'Connor's single to left O'Connor took second on the throw-in and then went to third on a passed ball. Miller fanned. Four hits, five runs. Such a long inning. SECOND INNING: Kern drew free transportation to first and moved on to second on Rossiter's single thru short. Kingsley scored Kern and put Rossiter on second with a single to left and Rogers filled the bases with a single past third. With this very pretty setting Repas shot a bounder to Anderson at third. It was a hard hit ball and it took Anderson some few moments to make up his mind what to do with it. While Elgin's third sacker was thus deliberating Rossiter raced home. Anderson came too in time to touch third and thus force Kingsley at that station. With Rogers on second and Repas on first, Davison struck out after wlych Miller again filled all stations by passing Kosier. Gross then planted a two-ply shot over the score board in center field which, according to ground rules, was good for only two bags and because of this ruling only two of the men on the foot paths were allowed to register. Tornquist ended the fun by striking out. Four hits, four runs. ELGIN: Davison in this round, in spite of a bandaged right thumb which he nursed most carefully thruout the entire contest, displayed some of his old time form and the supporters of the McHenry team began to breathe easier and at the same time regain their confidence. Lee struck out. Koepping was nailed by Tornquist and Gross threw out Anderson. No hits, no runs. THIRD INNING: Kern dropped a single into left and took second on Rossiter's single to center. Kern stole third base after which Rossiter started a delayed steal which worked out wonderfully well. Rossiter not, only drew the peg from Olson but allowed Kern to score. It looked for a moment as if they had Rossiter but old "Pop" Koepping just couldn't hang onto Olson's peg with the result that all hands were safe, Rossiter racing to third while Koepping went out into the garden to recover the ball. This dirty mess made Miller so sore that he then struck out both Kingsley and Rogers, while Repas proved an easy victim for Miller and Crangle. Two hits, one run. Otis beat out a hit to Rossiter but was forced at second when Smith rolled to Tornquist. In his attempt to make a double play out of it, Kern threw wildly to Rossiter with the result that Smith scampered on to second. Olson drew a walk. Crangle shot a hot bounder down between first and second which Kern gathered in, tagging Olson on his way to second and then shooting the pill to Rossiter to complete the double. One hit, no runs. FOURTH INNING: Davison lifted to Lee. Kosier grounded to Anderson. In taking the throw Crangle walked off the bag and Kosier was safe. Gross put Kosier on second with a single to right. Tornquist then dropped a double over the right field fence which scored Kosier and put Gross on third. Kern next bounced a single off Lee's leg, the hit scoring Tornquist. Kern took second on the throw-in. Rossiter was thrown out by Lee. Kern once more stole third base, the second time he pulled the stunt that afternoon. Kingsley lifted to Smith in left. Three hits, three runs. ELGIN: O'Connor fanned. Miller singled to left' and was then forced at second when Lee laced what looked like a sure single down between first and second. Kern took in the hop, shot the ball to Tornquist to force Miller at second but Tornquist made a wild heave to first in his attempt to complete the double with the result that Lee went on to second. Koepping walked and Anderson struck out. One hit, no runs. FIFTH INNING: Rogers was thrown out by Lee. Repas drew a pass. Davison rolled to Lee but the latter's throw got away from Crangle, the error putting Repas on third. Kosier rolled to Koepping and once more Crangle mussed things up around first. In pawing around for the initial sack he spiked Kosier after the latter had hit the bag. The injury put Kosier out of the game and Ehnert was sent in to run for him. Crangle's error also allowed Repas to score while Da-' vison went on to second. Gross then forced Davison on third by grounding to Lee. Tornquist out, Lee to Crangle No hits, one run.
