The MAACS open their season next week when they meet the ever-threatening Wilmot Pirates on Tuesday evening at the local high school. Local cage fans will no doubt welcome the announcement with much joy as innumerable questions have been piled recently as to just when there was going to be some excitement in the old town. Wilmot will present plenty of opposition for the MAACS in their first game as they have several weeks' jump as far as practice is concerned. SThat much y heralded contest be- |tween the Alumni of Northwestern land Notre Dame proved to be one 7 grand farce.

Even at a grand per game the ex-Notre Dame star is making money for them in increased attendance. '. * • Coach Dutch Bacon '414 Captain Dick Overton of the MAACS attended a dinner and meeting at Elgin Tuesday at Elgin for the purpose of organizing a basketball league, composed of strong teams in the Fox Valley. McHenry has gained considerable prominence in the cage world the past few years and no doubt is one of the key teams to the league. Aurora, Elgin, Elburn, Woodstock, BaV^ia and the MAACS are proposed members of the new venture. The manager and members of the squad would be interested to know just how fans in this region* would feel about their entering this strong circuit and would appreciate any interest shown.

Both captains of the teams were elected, which means that Dick Overton will lead .-the MAACS and the Ponies will fol-j low Bill Green. Their prowess as leaders of these teams is already well known, as both have led their squads' through numerous successful compaigns. Mccracken's cage squad open their season tomorrow night at Woodstock, where they will meet the Blue and White Champs of Larry Dale. This first contest is of much interest to followers of the high school eport as the teams this year in most of the county schools represent unknown •quantities, and the outcome of the early season games may have much to do with the standings in the league this year. Kelly Conway led the abbreviated "Knights of Columbus ,Bowling league •this week with a 594 series, shooting them down to the tune of 190, 191 and 213.

The oldtimers' con- The MAACS re trying out a new venture this year in an effort to raise enough funds to keep the team together. As is probably well known by now, several of the players have been offered pleasant contracts for playing elsewhere and hated to pass up the chanee in order to play at home for the pleasure. Wishing to do the right thing by "our Nells" the MAACS are going to reimburse the boys to a certain extent. This will be done in the form of a splitup of the profits at the end of the season in which players of both teams will participate. In addition the first team is to receive the proceeds of a certain number of season tickets which are now on sale by the players. These tickets entitle one person and a lady guest to admission to all home games and'cost the sum of $10. Seems like a lot until you get out your paper and pencil and figure it out. Fourteen home games are planned to be played and the admission to these for two people would be $14- Net profit, $4, not to mention the benefit to the town made possible by having a team ou the basketball floor. 1 ' Protective Galvanizing Galvanizing is a process by which metal sheets and other parts passed through a pot of molten zinc take on a protective coating of that metpl.
