HcHenry has an array of talent that should prove a stumbling block to xpore than one title aspirant before the season is over and will probably be right up in front with some of the veterans. Bill Kreutzer and George Firisby are expected to hurl for the loeals with Lockwood behind the plate. ^Patzke and Parker had quite a contest in th^ recent track meet with Woodstock. Parker of Woodstock won the high jump with Patzke second, Patzke won the broad jump with Parker second, and then in the next event, the pole vault, the Woodstock lad showed his superiority by elevating himself slightly higher than Patzke, who came in second. It's not often that two athletes are so evenly natch, ed in the same events. Wonder Lake dropped their second contest of the year on their own diamond, this time to Hebron 5 to 4. Hebron's improved nine scored two runs in the ninth to come from behnid and win just one ihore ball game than they did in the league last season. Looks like things are going to be ' evenly divided in the northern section of the county league this year with Harvard, Hebron, Johnsburg, Wonder Lake and McHenry fighting for top honors. Carl Anderson occupied first base for the MAACS in Bohr's absence Sunday and turned in three neat hits, including a two bagger. Carl will probably become a regular in the outfield when "Pickles" returns and he will be a welcome addition to the hitters' column. It will be remembered that Carl once had a tryout with Moline, but had a little too much weight to carry around at the time Mid was sent home for conditioning. He went to work and never returned. Jimmy Fay went to Antioch Palace to fight Rusty Hoskins last Friday night, but found himself in the ring with one Emroe, a veteran of many ring battles in his twelve years' experience. Fay wasnt happy over this surprise, but followed his usual custom of stepping right into the battle. After a bad first round he came through to take the next two and the decision. Jimmy had him almost out in the third but Emroe managed to weather the storm and went the route. The golf course at McHenry Country club is rapidly rounding into first class shape. The fairways are well covered and all but four of the greens are now in use and it won't be long now before the rest of them will be ready for the grand flight. Many changes have been made in the contour of the beautiful course that will make it more difficult at the same time more enticing, and the officials of the club are confident that many new friends of the course will be made this year. Most fans will be surprised to hear! that the MAACS have a real booster, in one who would not be expected to support the baseball team by attending the games. He is none other than Walter Freund, the West Side tire man. Walt attended the game at Crystal Lake Sunday and followed it 0R1SEAL LAKS N0SX8 OUT MAA08 nr HINTH Tnqraa Weakens In Last Early Errors Give Firemen Winning Margin The Crystal Lake Firemen snatched a thrilling victory from the grasp of the struggling MAACS at Crystal Lake Sunday afternoon by scoring two runs on three hits in the last half of the ninth, giving them a 6 to 5 margin. The locals went into the last of the ninth with a one-run margin, accumulated in the eight by a thrilling rally, and it was bitter medicine to have the game reversed in the last inning, but the Lakers deserved the victory as they put up a better grade of ball, the MAACS sqfjly displaying their lack of practice, a state of affairs that Will be remedied this week. Bad work by the infield in the opening inning caused Crystal Lake to overcome a two-run margin and step into the lead three to two. This lead existed until the eighth inning and proved to be the winning scores, making it a hard game for Tonyan to lose.

Frank Freund had the minfartune to break his leg while scrambling "back to third base in the Johnsburg- Antioch baseball game at Johnsburg Sunday. This tragedy put an end to the game, with Johnsburg winning 17 to 1 in the seven innings payed. And it will also put an end to one of the longest careers that a Johnsburg player ever put in the game of baseball. Fans will remember back about twenty years ago when Frank started playing hall as a youth of sixteen or seventeen. For many years he rated as a first string pitcher, employing the spit hall effectively when it was working right. Of late years he has given way to youth as his timing hasn't been as good as it formerly was, and he took his place in the outfield where his strong arm could still be of use. As a hitter Frank was among the best on the Johnsburg team, batting from the left side of the plate, but his failing eyes have been a handicap for the past year. It certainly is too bad that these accidents have to happen to mar one's enjoyment tf amateur sports. near second and was oift at first. Two runs, four hits.

This is the the first struggle that the local youth will see action in, but they are expected to give a good account of themselves against the strong opposition they are bound to meet sooner or later and they have been preparing for, the onslaughter under the supervi# ipiyof Leo "Red" Winkel,, *<*king out almest daily in their preparation for the opening battle. Saturday will find the boys all decked out in splendid new uniforms furnished by the American Legion Post, who have entered into the nation-wide movement to boost baseball and put it back in the place it once occupied in the sport annals of young America. The league is but a part of the National movement, sponsored by the Legion Posts all over the U. S. However, it will take more than the Ex service men to make a success of this movement, it will take the support and interest of everyone interested, not only in baseball, but in the youth of America to enable the lads to derive the full benefit of this wonderful undertaking. This should include yiSl! and everyone else in this community, as well as in every locality in this country. Saturday will find a team picked from the following boys under the ages of 17, who have turned their names in as desiring to try out for the McHenry team. Fourteen of these lads will compose the entire squad, this being the limit set hy the Rules Committee. Some names may have been overlooked through error, but I hope this won't let those lads become downhearted. Remember to play the game: Wm. Kreutzer, George Frisby, Don Hayes, Claire Kinsey, Carl Rietesel, Harold Meyers, Fred Wirtz, Ed. Whiting, Delbert Whiting, Cecil Rager, Ray Howard, Thomas Wilson, Lloyd Lockwood, George Larkin, Walter Kreutzer, Bernard Baur, George Kinsala, Gordon Engeln, Ray Ferwerda, Loren Miller, Ray Hughes, Marvin Meyers, Lloyd Whiting, Glen Anderson, Clarence Anderson, Harry Anderson and Melvin Peterson. The game is scheduled to commence at 2:00 sharp. Don't miss it. PISTAQUA HEIGHTS OPENS SUNDAY The Pistaqua Heights Country club course will be officially opened next Sunday for the season. The course will be open to the public every day except Sunday. The clubhouse restaurant is now open to the public under new management.

WOODSTOCK LEADS McHENRY TRACK MEN IN DUAL MEET Larry Dale brought his fast stepping team of track veterans to the McHenry field last Wednesday afternoon and guided the McHenry stars around the track, taking first in all events except three, the half mile, mile, and broad jump. However, the local lads shouldn't feel so badly because they came through to capture nine seconds out of fourteen and split the show money with seven apiece. Patzke again led the Orange and Black attack with eleven points, scoring five by taking the broad jump and winning second place in the high jump and pole vault. A. Davis won the distance event for McHenry and Bob Peterson took the 880 class. O'Shea was second in the 100 yard and 220 yard dashes to place second in the local list of point getters. Last evening the Mac men traveled to Libertyville to take on their old rivals in the track and field events.

Score--75%--Woodstock 45%--McHenry Next Saturday will find all the men of the local track squad entraining for the District meet at Elgin. It will certainly be a great day for the field athletes as the performance starts about 8:30 in the morning and will most likely continue until dusk. McHenry possesses several men who will most likely capture a few points but they can hardly be expected to take very high honors in team score as the competition will be very great and those schools with large track teams will have the greater chance because of the size of their entries. INDOOR LEAGUE TO HOLD MEETING MONDAY NIGHT Monday night at 7:30 sharp everyone interested in the formation of a playground league is requested to be at the city hall. Different plans have been formed to correct the defects in the league of last year.

Four men have been appointed to take the names of those desiring to see action. They are Arthur Meyers, of thfe Legion, Herb Freund of the K C., George Freund of the Foresters, and Clay Hughes of the Masons. At the meeting Monday evening the lists will be split up mto four teams with each group matched as closely as possiblie.
