McHenry liad one of its real baseball days, the home boys, with the excep­ tion of two slips, playing back of Sahlsberg like big leaguers. Sahls- berg pitched a splendid game and also contributed three neat bingles during the fracas, As previously stated ̂the windy city bunch registered their first runs in the second stanza. Gavin, the first man up in this round, beat out an infield hit to Bobby Knox. Cullen followed him up with a short single to right, Gavin taking second. Both runners were ad­ vanced a peg when Schaefer beat out an infield hit. Things certainly did look bad for McHenry at this stage of the game. With the bases filled and none gone, "Sally" surely was in one tight hole. The little flinger was somewhat relieved of his heavy burden when he whiffed Phillips. Larsen laid one down to Huck, >vho made a mess of it, with the result that Gavin scored, while the other two base runners were advanced a peg nearer the counting station. With all the bases still occu~ pied by the enemy, Felton fanned. Right here is where Brailsford got his name in the error column. In relay­ ing one of Sahlsberg's speedy ones, our little receiver pegged over Sally's head, with the result that Cullen scored. Callan ended the round by fanning. Chicago should never have scored in this inning. The sixth inning proved Sahlsberg's bad one. Sweeney went out on a long fly to Behlke. Fox tripled to center and came home a moment later on Gavin's single in the same direction. Gavin went to second on a passed ball and stole third. Cullen fanned. Schaef­ er singled to right, the hit scoring Gavin. Schaefer soon afterward com­ pleted the circuit on Phillips' double to right. Larsen was given life at first when Brailsford dropped the third strike called on him. Felton was taken care of by Comiskey and Sahs. This ended the visitors' score making for the day. McHenry chalked up a pair of tal­ lies in the first,, inning. After Knox had fanned and Sahs met his death on foul to Sweeney, Aebischer single^* Brailsford duplicated, sending the run­ ner ahead of him to the far corner. Gavin let Behlke's grounder get away from him, Aebischer scoring and Brails­ ford taking second. Sweeney tried to catch Brailsford olf the bag, but his aim was bad, the error allowing Brails­ ford to score and Behlke to reach third. Bonslett fanned. Comiskey and Huck manufactured another run in the second inning. The former was passed, stole second and third and came home on Huck's sacri­ fice to Schaefer. Sahlsberg beat out an infield hit, stole second and went to third on Knox's bingle. Knox stole second, while Sahs was fanning. Schaefer and Fox retired Aebischer. Three runners crossed the home place in the fourth. Comiskey drew his second pass of the day, stole second and went to third on Huck's sacrifice. Fox tried to get Comiskey at third, but Gavin dropped the throw, the ball rolling just far enough to allow Com­ iskey to score. Sahlsberg singled to right and went to third when Schaefer failed to nail Knox's grounder. Schaef­ er, after recovering the ball, made a bad throw to third, the error allowing Sahlsberg to score and Knox to reach second. Knox scored a moment later on Saiis' double to center. Aebischer and Brailsford fanned. The McHenry lads swelled their lead by four more runs in the sixth. Huck drew a pass. Sahlsberg went out on a fly to right field. Knox sacrificed Huck to second. Schaefer made another error on Sahs' grounder, the hit allow­ ing Huck to score. Right here is where Aebischer uncorked his ripping three bagger,, the hit scoring Sahs. Brailsford doubled, Aebischer scoring. Brailsford went to third and later scored on two passed balls. Behlke walked, while Bonslett ended the round by fanning. ^ In the seventh Comiskey was walked for the third time. He stole second, while Huck was fanning. Sahlsberg doubled to right, Comiskey scoring Sahlsberg was caught off second. Knox fanned. Just to show the metropolitan city chaps up in good shape, all hands took a waUop at the ball in the eighth. After Knox had been retired by an in­ field fly to Fox, Sahs drew a pass. Aebischer grounder to Fox, who threw to second to get Sahs. Sahs beat the throw and all hands were safe. Brails­ ford shot a hot one thru Gavin, Sahs and Aebischer scoring. Brailsford took second on the error. Behlke fanned. Bonslett took first after being hit by a pitched ball and was sent around to third on Comiskey's double the hit also scoring Brailsford. Huck beat out an infield hit, on which Bons­ lett scored, Comiskey taking third. Sahlsberg hit a bounder to the "pitch.' Comiskey tj-ied to make homo on the play, butwas nipped at the counting station.,* The tabulated score follows: C. EDI90NS R H ,K> -A.

At the time we placed very little credit in the report, but the manner in which Republican' postmasters are being removed of late leads us to believe that there really was something to the story. We have heard but little regarding the Mc­ Henry and West McHenry postofiicse, but it is an established fact that there are a few candidates after the jobs. ADJUSTS 170 LOSSES How often has it been said that Simon 'Stoffel is the hardest man to find in McHenry." That many a truth is told in a joke is once more verified in this case, when it is known that the popular insurance agent has adjusted in the neighborhood, of 170 losses since the first of the year. This is a record that is very seldom equalled by an in­ surance agent in a town the size of Mc­ Henry and is one that Mayor Stoffel has every reason to feel proud of. HUNTLEY NEXT SUNDAY The fast Huntley team will be in McHenry next Sunday to do battle with the local crew.
