This victory gives Johnsburg a clean sweep of the intercity contests this year. When trying to learn the particulars of the game about the only response obtainable from the players was about how stiff they were after the unaccustomed exertion. - ' The Cubs again are Chicago City Champs and whatever glory goes with a victory over the seventh place Wfiite Sox is theirs.

Chicago turned out very poorly for its first big night football game in which Oregon trimmed Drake U. at Soldiers Field. The crowd numbered but a small 14,000, not much of a crowd for the immense stadium, and the noise was sadly lacking from the spectators who as a rule, are quite vociferous at a college football game. It may be that the night breezes weren't entirely to blame, but it remains a fact that the game was by far the deadest affair on record. The visibility was the surprising part of the whole spectacle. The spectators could follow every move of players and ball with the utmost ease and if Anything could see thru with Old Sol's illumination^ . > - „ ^ SCOUT MEETING The writer presided at a meeting last Monday night.

After the patrol meetings Mr. Schoenholtz ni2de some announcements. There will be an overnight hike next Saturday. The Scouts will start; at 5 o'clock and will come home Sunday morning. It might be mentioned here that Saturday night, Sept 27, the Scouts camped at Sherman's Hill. There were fourteen present and the evening and breakfast meals were, cooked. Monday night, Oct. 13, the. Scouts will go on a boat trip, about two and one-half miles down the river. Oct, 31, there will be a Court of Honor held at Richmond. There will be quite a few local Scouts to get their various badges at this Court, Orval Granger told the boys about the big sightseeing trip four local. Scouts took. The pictures that were taken were displayed. The total number of pictures taken is approximately 121. Then the boys exercised their vocal chords. Two or three songs were completely murdered and a wonderful discord was produced. No doubt, in time, after constant warbling, a little harmony will be detected. After a snappy game of Chain Tag, Taps were blown and the Scouts were dismissed. Twenty Scouts and five drivers was McHenry's representation at the Uni* versity of Wisconsin football game at Madison last Saturday. There wero from 6,000 to 8,000 Boy Scouts at th* game.

Nothing has been done so far, but of course it is too early for that anyway and nothing definite can be s$id about it. However, Jimmy Fay has taken that age old advice to young men and gone west. Dick Overton, if rumors are correct, has diverted his interests into another channel and may shortly join the "retired" list so far as basketball is concerned. Some of the other team members of the past few seasons seem rather undecided about continuing their careers, but even if none of the past stars turn out, why isn't it possible for McHenry to get their rising stars together and put on a firstclass quintet without the assistance of some of the oldtimers. 16.10 135.00 100.00 2.75 60.00 2.00 Brfs between season suspense cer tainly is terrible. The World and City Series are now over, baseball is through for the year, and football is just getting under way and hasn't really given any cause for serious thought so far. Cheer up, though, folks, and after settling all your wagers, take a look about and 1 what is at hand. Navy appears to dedicate the Notre Dame stadium in the headline attraction. Then there ia the Ohio State-Northwestern game at Evanston, which brings together two of the most promising conference teams. In other big ten scraps the Chicago and Wisconsin eleven will lock horns and also tho Michigan and Purdue teams, which should be some scrap if advance dope means anything. Butler and Illinois lock horns and maybe Butler will turn their trick this time. Minnesota entertains Stanford in another intersectional treat and Fritz Crisler will' have his hands more than full trying to get those Swedes into a fighting mood to have even a chance at victory. And it won't be long now before basketball season & here and then you'll have plenty to occupy your at tention. Ii«t property witfe£w QttfeJan. and brick John Walsh, salary W. C.
