Tough spots for his coming match in the quarter finals of the Kane county jumef. Wells brought in * §7-89-76 • Football practice will be starting soon at the M. C. H. S., but the play- Ners are going to have it a little softer than ever before. Supt. Duker gave instructions to Joe, the janitor, to aise a nice carpet of green grass on he girdiron and this will be quite ifferent than the old mud hole prinkled with rocks that w« wed gamble on away back when--. ' Since Johnsburg trimAied Harvard to 0, Manager Joe Frett is real -anxious to entertain Art Shires and "the Chicago White Sox, so don't" be surprised if that announcement appears quite soon. About the only thing that will prevent this is the fact that Joe's old green bat was broken. Joe has been slipping ever since and just about struck bottom Sunday night. When the Masons trimmed the For- • esters it forced the K. C's to accept the league title and they further strengthened their claims when they 1 trounced «4he Legion 16 to 1. About Tall that remains now is to get that feed stowed away. No date has been Bet and I'm getting rather anxious, as vacation days are coming and no conflicts are wanted. 1. L. Axtell, president of the First ^ State Bank of Harvard* has the dis- * tinction of gaining recognition in the American Trap Shoot at Vandalia, Ohio. Several of the contestants tied with a 98 score and in the shoot-off i from "the 20-yard fine, Axtell placed H third. "Mbse" Newman of Sweetwater, Texa^, won the event, while J| Earl F. Booker, Dayton, Ohio, placod The Crystal Lake Caba have been Np going along in great shape all season % and captured another pair over the holidays. They even think they can take icimaburg, the county champs, into camp. It's getting rather late for a series now, but next year the Lakers are planning on entering the county circuit and what will happen when these learns meet will be rather Interesting. M Harry Lang, well kwown athlete from the Watch city, recently received a notable tribute to his athletic prowess. Elgin has planned to organize one independent football squad this season and make a real eleven, instead of having half a dozen scrub teams, and Mr. Harry Lang himself has been picked as a coach. It won't be long now before that old stentorian voice will be booming over the gridiron. BoffHtfsfPlradty bralscA Malay at Johnsburg, when a bad throw caused the Harvard first baseman to obstruct the baseline. Pickles tried to avoid the collision, but received a badly bruised hip in doing so and had to retire from the game. Meyers, the handy utility man, handled everything that came his way and Sal also banged out a single in his own trip to the plate. Bohr will be back next Sunday if his plans don't, fail him. Earl Monear has engaged men to r^finish his bowling alleys for the cominr^pin season. Work has already commenced, but it will be several weeks before the alleys will be in shape for hard usage. McHenry's bowlers should show greater skill than ever before when they get to grooving them as the two years' practice they have put in will enable them to find the old 1-8 spot with greater ease. ~~~ ball league and what a clash it was, Hie final score was 8 to 0 but loose support rendered by the backers of Lefty Mailer accounted for six of the winner's tallies, leaving the earned run total for the teams at a 2 to 0 ratio. , Ed Tonyan again proved to be complete master of the situation at all times with but two men reaching second base and not one runner getting, to third safely. Johnsburg played errorless ball behind this stellar pitching and this helped immensely in holding Harvard's heavy hitters to three safeties, one of them of the scratch variety. Harvard's total offensive is easily summed up. They were retired in order in the first two innings, but Tonyan walked Siebel to open the third. Roecker filed to Bacon in right center and Siebel was doubled off first. Steivang then singled between first and second, bat Willey struck out. In the fourth Watson bunted down the first base line and managed to beat it out for a hit. Palmer sacrificed him to second. Johnson was grazed by a pitched ball, putting men on first and second with one down. Not the least bit ruffled. Tonyan calmly struck out Ingalls and then retired Miller the same way to get himself out of a hole. In the sixth Watson walked with one down and was doubled off first when Whiting made a neat catch of Palmer's fly. The only other Harvard man to reach base was Ingalls, who lined one to deep left center, but was out trying to stretch it to a three-bagger, Bacon to A. Smith. It is easily seen that Harvard had no chance to win the old .ball game for runs are a necessity and that was what they lacked. The Johnsburg offensive got under way at the earliest possible moment. H. Freund led off with a drive over second that evaded Watson and Freund reached second. • Bacon bunted him to third and Winkel drove a hard one through Siebel at first, scoring Freund with the run that would have won the ball game. Joe Freund singled over third with two out in the second and Winkel got one in the pants with a couple down in the third, but nothing came of either. In the fourth Harvard handed them four runs on two hits. A. Smith struck out. Seb Whiting singled over second.. Leo Smith grounded to short and he muffed the ball. Joe Freund rolled an easy one to Steivang and the ball went right through him this time, allowing Whiting to score and L. Smith to take third. Tonyan was thrown out by Willey, L. Smith scoring. H. Freund tapped in front of the plate and was safe when Miller's bullet-like throw went through Siebel's glove to right field, another run scoring and H. Freund "taking third. Bacon singled to left, bringing home the fourth and final run of the wild inning. And not content with this the second place Harvardites handed out two more runs in the fifth, this time on one hit. Bohr was safe when Johnson's throw pulled the first baseman off the bag. Bohr and Roecker collided and Bohr had to leave the game with a badly bruised hip. Frett ran for Bohr. A. Smith grounded to third and Frett beat the throw to second, both runners arriving safely. Whiting rolled out to Roecker, J. Frett scoring. L. Smith was out, Willey to Roecker, scoring A. Smith. J. Freund then reached first on. error and stole second, but was out trying to score on Tonyan's single to rights Winkel and Meyers pulled * fast one when, with Winkel on third and Meyers on first and two down in the sixth, Meyers drew a throw to first and then broke for second. Winkel then waited until the throw was made to trap Meyers and then An home while Johnson held the ball on second waiting for Meyers, who had returned safely to first. This play gave Johnsburg its eighth and last run and just , . -i --' superiority over the other teams in McHenry county, every other team having been beaten by Harvard, the team that hasn't even scored a run and have but four hits in the two games played with Johnsburg. Union Here Sunday Next Sunday Union invades Johnsburg to try and pull the river lads off the high pedestal on which they now stand. Union has a neat pitcher in Kunda, whose support lost him the irame against Johnsburg last time thev met. He held the local sluggers to five hits, but errors swelled the total to six runs,, more than enough for victory. HARVARD (0) Willey, 2b ..... Watson, cf ...~«« Palmer, lf-3b Johnson, 8b-ss ..

Camp Perry is the mecca of all riflemen this year and about 3,000 marksmen from all parts of the world are testing their skill in competition. The U. S. Army, Navy, Marines and National Guard are all well represented besides the police , and civilian entrants. M'HENRY COUNTRY CLUB The second round of the club championship contest was played at the McHenry Country club over the weekend. Cronin drew a bye and Nelson defeated Buslee 5 and 4. George Remke defeated E. M. GaKtz by the close margin of 2 up and 1 to go Henry Remke had a real battle with WillArd Galitz and it took the nineteenth hole with a birdie 3 to give Remke the match. The semi-finals will be played next Sunday with Cronin matched against Nelson and George Remke playing his brother, Henry Remke. These players are well matched and the games will be interesting ones.

Pistakee Bay Course The Pistakee Bay golf course'lew*- other well known layout for the Scottish pastime, where the resortera around Pistakee Bay have their membership. Among other things, the Pistakee Bay course is distinctive in the fact that it is the oniy exclusive golf course in this vicinty, where about seventy-fve members and their guests have exclusive rights. The golf course is a sporty, rolling one about six years old, consisting of nine holes which are difficult enough now but which will be even harder to play at the completion of the work now being done on them as more traps and bunkers are beipg laid out The course is also being landscaped and many trees and shrubs planted and the five new bent greens are in fine condition, making the course one of the best nine hole courses in the northern part of the state. The remaining greens will be completed with the bent this fall ready for a busy season next year. The heaviest play at the golf course is over the week-end and tournaments for the entainment of the members have been put on every week during the summer. The officers of the club are: Carl Buehier, president; Charles J. Peters, treasurer; H. Patton, secretary. A picturesque club house is situated near the entrance to the grounds, where Earl Marshall is in charge and the rustic beauty of the scenery with the rolling, green slopes of the golf course make the spot an ideal one for recreation. The club championship at the golf course is down to the finals, Mr, James Mraz and H. C. Patton being the runners-up. Mr. Patton defeat- Sunday morning, Aug. 25, and in the afternoon played a tight game against Chris Wieland, eliminating both of the contestants, thereby placing himself in a position to fight out the finals with James Mraz, who is the energetic chairman of the greens committee. The qualifying rounds for the annual club championship tournament were played August 11 and a number of low scores registered. The tournaments at the Pistakee golf club always attract the interest of the entire membership and every season proves to be a busier one tlm# preceding years. Pistaqua Heights Howard Elmore. The second event of! the season was the contest for tht Walter Spoerl cup which was won 1 y Walter Nelson. This was a popular contest with nearly fifty entries in the opening^ round. In the third tournament the Charlie Weeks cup was won by Orvil Warrender and in the following contest Hermace D. Smith won the cup donated by H. H. Meehan. Many organizations have been entertained at this beautiful spot during the summer, including Lyons and Kiwanis club, the P. A. D. lawyers fraternity and the Hamilton club who have put on tournaments during the week. The large lawn, with its beautiful shade trees surrounding the club house, is a most inviting spot to spend a week-end and that the members of the club enjoy this beautiful place far from the noise of the city is made evident by their presence here during the summer season. Chapel Hill The Chapel Hill golf course is another wonderful spot where one may play golf to their hearts content and is familiar to many people in this vicinity. This beautiful spot is ideally situated on the Pistakee Bay road at Howell's V511a and 'received its name from the little stone chapel which stands on a knoll at the edge of the course, overlooking the rolling fairways and verdant greens like a peaceful sentry proclaiming the standards of righteousness and truth to all who heed. The course was made for the pleasure of the people at Howell's Villa on Fox river who greatly enjoy this recreation and are enthusiastic over the games which they play here every season. Well, do not think for a minute that we have told you about all of the golf clubs in this locality, for such is not the case. There are several more of these popular clubs not far away, for this favorite form of recreation seems to have taken the country by storm these days, but we're going to let the enthusiasts play on in the hot summer sun for the present 40 ite "Au revoir" for tjfria time.

However, a delightful day was spent in visiting and reminiscences, with a delicious dinner and supper being served and everyone went home well pleised with the day and hoping that next year the entire family could be together at another one of these reunions. Those Lincoln, Neb.--For the first time In history, Nebraska will be faced shortly with a "custom" problem, a problem which may make necessary the guarding or patrolling of two of ber boundary lines, that dividing ttn> state from Kansas on the south an<! the Missouri river separating Nebraska from Iowa on the east. The reason is that the lucrative practice of smuggling gasoline across from Kansas and Iowa has begun wltl) the four cent gasoline tax law, ac cording to Dr. T. W. Bass, collector of the gas tax here. • While the Nebraska gasoline tax was two cents a gallon, Doctor Bass said, there was no smuggling trouble, because the rate was either the same, or blgber in the bordering states. But wben tbe Nebraska tax went u>» to four cents and the tax in Iowa and Kansas was boosted to only three, it made possible a smuggler's profit of a clear cent a gallon for hauling the petrol aci >ss the state lines. In South Dakota, Wyoming and Colorado. Doctor Bass said, the tax ts four cents, so that tbere is no trouble on the borders. "But we have already received several reports of smuggling on the Kansas line, and also across the river from Iowa,"1 Doctor Bass said. "It seems likely that the problem will have to be met by putting a man or men in the field to patrol tbe borders and to Intercept the smugglers. "Tbere fs a good profit in It for --„ them.
