"•WO' The following article, which ap­ peared in last week's issue of the Grayslake Times, will be of interest to McHenry people, as Mr. Walsh is well known here, being a brother to "Jack" and M. J. Walsh of this place: Among the thrilling incidents ex­ perienced by our autoists there were perhaps none that "went through" what Tom Walsh did on the Algonquin hill last Sunday afternoon with his family as occupants of the car. After lunch Tom thought he would give the Overland a workout and, as a novice, had gotten on very nicely until he sorted to climb the steep hill at the above named place. This is where the big hill climbs are held, so it will be seen that Tom prefers to be among the leaders. He had nearly reached the top when he realized that the ma­ chine was unable to make the grade. He threw out the clutch and under­ took to shift to low, in which move­ ment the engine wqj "killed." The car started backwards from almost the very top Of a half mile inclines Both brakes were set, but the bands had been so badly worn that it was impos­ sible to set them solid. . Along the sides of the rosd there were deep ravines, varying from ten to twenty feet in depth. The mpmen- tum of the machine was increasing, when suddenly there loomed up a small bank which Walsh thought would be a good place to back the machine into. This brought the machine 4<o an abrupt stop, with the result that Mrs. Baldwin sustained slight injuries by being thrown against one side of the ma­ chine. All of the other, passengers escaped without a mark. Where the machine bacjced into the bank there was a washout and a fence post that once held the wire was now being held by the wire and in some manner got into one, of the wheels, breaking out every spoke and render­ ing it useless. It was only thru the composure re­ tained by Mr. Walsh that the accident was not more serious. . * You'll like our drills" aim -'pjriCCSvi Both are right. Peteseh. • ^ MRS.

AN EXPLANATION Thru the management of the Mc­ Henry baseball team we have been re­ quested to explain the sudden change in the baseball schedule for next Sun­ day. The manager had East Troy booked for this occasion, but owing to the fact that our star twirler, Roy Sahlberg, suffered an injury to his sal­ ary wing just beforp the Elgin Ath­ letic game two weeks ago, the man­ ager was forced to cancel the Wincon- sin team for the time bteing to give Sahlbercr's arm a chance to get back into shape. The manager sent the twirler to a Chicago osteopath on Mon­ day of this week and upon examination it was found thai, the smoke artist had a cord snapped oul of place. The doc­ tor got the cord back into position and within a week or so Roy expects to be as good as new. It was for this reason that the manager saw fit to book the Elgin Nationals, who will be here next Sunday. Not forgetting the defeat the East Troy team handed the local squad at Lake Geneva on Labor day of lasPyear, it is only natural for Mc­ Henry to present her strongest line-up when the two teams battle again and for this reason the manager feels that every man on the team should be at his best when the Badger state players appear here, which, from present in­ dications, will be th,e latter part of next month. The manager I)L1SQ wants to make it plain to the followers of the sport that it was not out of choice that he booked the Elgin team for next Sunday, but to use the slang phrase was "a force put." This was the best team that he could book at so late a date and this will probably be th.e last Elgin team to appear here this season. The manager informs us that he has several cracking good teams booked for the balance of the season and the fans rqay look for first-class baseball on and qfter this week. Roy will give his arm a thoro test in one of the two advertised games and everyone is hop- in' that he will be there with his old- tinje steam and assortment of curves. TWO BALL GAMES The manager- of tliu McFJeqry Sox has scheduled two games for the coin­ ing Saturday and Sunday. On Satur­ day the Woodstock Federals will hook un with the local squad aud on Sunday the Elgin Nationals will be entertained here. The Woodstock Federals are composed of a number of county seat players who formerly made up the ball teams that Represented that city and from reports which come , from the Typewriter city the team is capable of giving a very good account of itself. T«be Elgin Nationals are considered one of the fastest ball clubs which now travels out of the Watch city and, in view of the fact that two Elgin teams have already met defeat at the hands of the local players, they are coming to win back some of the lost laurels. Both games should develop into cork­ ing good contests and the fans may look forward to a couple of first-class exhibitions of the national pastime. Both games will begin promptly at 2:30.
