What next? , # The Jewel Tea Company of Chicago ' fht firm that is to move to Barrington in the near future, has a basketball * team and are desirous of booking «^games with some of their future ' neighbors in a "Geod Will" campaign. Manager Gus Freund is trying to match dates with them for a game at Barrington, sometime in early February. T MCHS basketball teams have lost few men due to the examinations last week. Chamberlin will be ineligibas been engaged to occupy a forson and it very likely that Segel will be promoted from the second team ranks to fill this vacancy. McCracken may decide to leave him on the lightweight squad, however, in order to give him the benefit of the experience will gain there. The Woodstock Lions bad a foung winning streak stopped at three games by the Oregon Indians when the invaders stepped up in the last few minutes of the game and snatched a victory from the county-seat boys at St. Mary's gym last Sunday afternoon. McHenry isn't planning on -. waiting until the final period to establish their lead, when the game is being played next Tuesday night at this ,..£ame gymnasium. f Wauconda's AU-Stai^ basketball •^team is now in possession of a few new faces. Lange and Durrenberger of Elgin have been released, and Sullivan, formerly a North Chicago star, -~1»as been engaged to occupay a forward position. This* leaves Kirwan without a substitute of any calibre to replace any regular, Gaynor and Rosier of the second team being used in this capacity. Lack of harmony is said to be the big factor in this change. There was quite a lot of money floating around for Lake Zurich at Wauconda the other night when the McHenry Ponies were displaying their irares against the .boys from St. Peter's, but Manager Dutch Bacon liil it decided ill his own mind that if the money were bet he'd play an important part in the way the game woqld turn out. This decisive action on the manager's part kept the game from being spoiled by those "loyal fans who would have liked to bet; on McHenry. * Is Babe Ruth asking too much when ~T»®wants a three-year contract at $85,000 per? A well-known sports writer now makes the statement that inasmuch as Col. Rupert likes to be generous he should grant Ruth the salary he is asking and give it willingly with the reassurance that Ruth has v it coming for bacHf salary, for was it not Ruth and Ruth alone who made the baseball world forget the scandal of 1919? There is no doubt but that this fact is true and that the Babe is the biggest ftgnre in t*» history of baseball. MAAOS WALLOP HINCKLEY 35 TO 24 Waaconda Here Sunday --• Invade Woodstock Tuesday To Seek Revenge From Lioas Revenge is sweet, and it would be rather hard to convince any of the MAAC basketball players that there is a sweeter revenge than the one secured Sunday when our fighting locals stepped out in the last few minutes of play and literally ran away from the Hinckley aggregation, after playing nip and tuck basketball throughout the game. Overton qnd Kinsala were the boys who put the baskets in that ate the heart right out of Hinckley and the all-star bunch they Had picked up from various parts of the dountry. Fans well remember the two trimmings that Hinckley handed McHenry last year on the home floor, each in an overtime game* and to those who hatched the Henry team come back this year with all the old fight that has carried them to so many victories, it was a glorious sight to watch the last few minutes of that game Sunday, Hinckley started out with a bang and had the jump from the very beginning, leading at the quarter 11 to 7. Gus Freund carried the burden of the attack in the first half, scoring three of the four baskets made by McHenry in that period, which ended in Hinckley's favor, 17 to 13. It will never be known just what Coach Dutch Bacon said during the half, but he certainly got results that even Rockne might be jealous of, for his team stepped out in the third quarter when Overton found his basket eye and got hot, and took the lead away from that downstate team, holding them to one point while McHenry made aix. With the narrow margin of one point to work on our boys summoned up all their old fight and proceeded to step out and gather in the points. Kinsala hadn't been doing much all through the game but he made up for it by collecting twelve ppints in that last minute rally, in which Overton also assisted. Given a little more time the score would have been much worse than the 35-24 count which was on the scoreboard when the game ended. Hinckley has boasted of a superteam this year, in view of the fact that they had added three regulars from the Batavia Green Pheasants of last season, the team that wouldn't come to McHenry for anything less than a fortune. It certainly ought to make folks stop and think after this game and begin to wonder if McHenry hasn't a real team after all, as many of the critics were wont to criticise after the Lions from Woodstock had clawed the MAACS around. McHenry takes on the Kirwan team from Wauconda next Sunday and if last Sunday's victory doesn't bring out a record crowd then McHenry is on the wan as a basketball town. Everyone knows that Wauconda is making an effort to put a winning team on the floor, and their victory over the Batavia Green Pheasants last week should be ample evidence that they are succeeding. Earlier in the season McHenry trimmed them by the small margin of three points, but since then Harry Kirwan has made several changes in his team in order to seek harmony Tuesday night the MAACS set out for Woodstock where they are to make another attempt to silence the Lions' roar. Everyone remembers the crushing defeat handed the MAACS the last time those two teams met, but even that hasn't wiped out the fact that McHenry last year handed practically this same Woodstock team the worst defeat they ever suffered in the Armory and it is rather hard to believe that any two men could makt •- such a difference in a team. The an* swer is that McHenry suffered an off night when they took their trimming so beware Lions when we meet again. In the second team game Sunday there were some very peculiar occurences, and the score itself will testify that the game was out of the ordinary for this day and age. At the half the score was 8 to 2 in favor of Hinckley, and in the last half McHenry came back and held the visitors to one point while they were making eight, just enough to nose out Hinckleyr 10 to 9. That ought to be one for Ripley. McHenry A. A. <^.1 , Overton, f •-- '-1 ^ Fay, f .... $ H. L. Smith ..... Geo. Freuad V. iFreund . E. Smith . Wetagart Steffes , J. P. Weber G. Weber E.

M'HKNRY A80SNDS lit LEAGUE BAOB Richmond Victims--St. Mary's Takes Twin Bill FVoat Local Squad Saturday Night McHenry High School's two basketball teams traveled to Richmond's Memorial Hall, appropriately named for all those who ever tried to play basketball there, and managed to pick up a little in this race for county honors by ekeing out a pair of victories last Friday night. It might have been the hall, the cold weather, or the boys themselves, but the final score or the heavyweight contest was just a little too close for local comfort. The score was tied 20 to 20 when the game ended, and it was necessary to indulge in an overtime period before McHenry could be returned the winner 23 to 22. Darrow for the losers copped the big honors for the fracas with eleven points, although Patzke made the pane amount for McHenry. The game was just another of those jumbled affairs as usually takes place in that tiny hall at Richmond. It certainly leaves no roonf for basketball when ten players and a referee take possession of the floor. The lightweights, led by Vycital and Hetterman, took the Richmond lights into camp 12 to 8 in a rather spirited contest. St. Mary's Green and White squads invaded McHenry territory and handed the McHenry teams another double lacing like they had already administered on their home floor earlier in the season. It certainly looks as if these Woodstock fives have the Indian sign on our home town teams as Saturday night's defeat was the fourth handed local cage teams by the county seaters since the season began, and McHenry boasts not one single victory as yet. The final score was 21 to 12. yes, it was Dutch Leonard who again did most of the big work for St. Mary's as he has most every game this season. Saturday's contract for him consisted of six baskets and a free throw. Geary also turned in a neat exhibition though his scoring might have been more effective. The Woodstock five played a close guarding game that resulted in many fouls being called on them and McHenry capitalized these opportunities to score by making good eight attempts from the free throw line. This leaves them just four points scored from scrimmage, and with the one basket made against this same team in the previous game, it makes it look as ti Coach Stuessy has taught his boys Row to guard. Smith and Wegener scored the two baskets for McHenry, both counting nn the first half, which ended with (McHenhy trailing 15 to 7, Dutch Leonard scoring four baskets and a free throw in that half t& keep Mb team in the lead. « McHenry--• Patzke ., Smith"1 .... ..0 1 .0 .0 .1 0 2 * 0 2 * i.>v _ .-^4- Hinckley Lights--- E.

Monday night the McHenry Ponies travelled to Wauconda where they put on the preliminary for the Green Pheasant-Wauconda game by taking Lake Zurich into camp in a free scoring contest by a 41 to 34 count. Gus Freund went along with the Ponies in an effort to get into better shape and exercised himself to the extent of six baskets and a free throw. Dowell was another big man with five baskets, while Wee Willie took four for his share of the spoils. This evens the count between these two squads for the year with a victory apiece, and their meeting at McHenry should be vecy interesting to watch. The Fonies will seek revenge for an early defeat at the hands of the Woodstock Kaysees when they encounter that bunch in the curtain raiser to the McHenry-Lions game at St. Mary's gym next Tuesday night. The Ponies seem to have found their stride at last and if they can continue their winning ways against the Knghts all will be well hi the home camp.
