Last Monday night he fought the windup at the West * vt^Side K. of C. club house and his op- 1 ponent was none other than the Western Electric champ. N The MAACS got off on the right 'foot last Tuesday evening when they took & one-point decision from the P5- ] rates of Wilmot..

On that date the Bears and the ," * Cardinals are to play a big game for \' ' > "... the sake of charity at the Chicago ,J-; " % Stadium, where a field has been laid •%"' out. Tliis is the first time in the presjjL". v 'ent century that an important foot- • .^'ball game has been played indoor in Chicago. , < &£ Since all the western sports writers ^ . *have used up their supply of complimentary adjectives without complete- Sly describing the ability of those Nav^ f Vr tional champs, the Notre Dame eleven, p;;.- the writers in this part of the counft' "; 'Hry aren't even trying.

The MCHS lads kept the lead until well into the second half, mainly by }means of long shots as they couldnt ^* seem to fathom the defense of Larry Dale's men. Then Woodstock overv^ ' ^ came the lead and went ahead , to a hf-v'A-p*four-point victory. Just the same the L game put up by the locals has made the coaches about the county sit up § "and take notice. The lights also lost ^/•,, : ,but the beginners on the squad makes rit look as if Mac will have some real -u'A'f.- ; taleat before tl,e year is up. " Tj--liir Afllls came through in grewfc -ship* fflfet to show Dar Granger that Uf itam still has a chance in the OM Steers' league. Lester isn't looked tipefn as much of a bowler but he led the league last week with a 552 series with high game of 211. John Lay surprised some of the young bowlers of the Spring Grove crowd when lie captured high game the other night with a 210 score. John used to lay them down quite regular but it's been a long Qme since he last toppled the maples. Action waxed hot in the K. C. session on the alleyr this week with Red Winkel topping them all with a 584 series. Paul Brefeld had high game with 233 and the general average per game was over 173, which is a pretty nice average for any league. This lad Kinsala on the lightweight squad of the high school cagers bids fair to follow in the footsteps of his well known brother. The lad busted open his first game with four field goals. He's built just about like his older brother, was when he was n beginner in the game and resemble"! him a lot in his actions. The MAACS are sfjrry to that the sale of the season tickets, an innovation this year with the town boys, didn't go over as well as anticipated. President R. I. Overton was rather disappointed with the support given the boys by the fans as he had hoped to finance the first squad with the proceeds of the season ticket sale &nd leaVe the rest for the club. Basketball fans will have to travel out of town for their basketball games this week, with the exception of Sunday's game when the MAACS play the touted Genoa City five. Friday night the high school travels to Harvard where some stiff competition is expected when they meet Coach Home's men. Tuesday evening the MAACS return the game at Wilmot and there will be plenty of excitement for those who will follow the favorites. *;}H The brief spell of cold weather gave the skaters of this vicinity a chance to get the old blades shined and sharpened. The ice on the river was excellent and many a happy hour was spent by the followers of the outdoor sport. Some of them tried to continue too long after the warm spell had set in and though no casualties were reported, at least one young man received a cold bath- It's very dangerous to try to skate on doubtful ice and this practice annually costs many lives and much sorrow. Th4 New York Giants, led by Bemy Friedman, nro the new Professional champs in football. The Chicago Bears took the measure of la9t year's champs, the Green Bay Packers, last Sunday in the deciding contest and did it in a fashion that made it look easy. Red Grange made himself prominent again and kept up the brilliant playing that has brought back memories of his Illini career. Red intercepted enough passes Sunday to assist in winning the gamo and then Johnson accepted enough of his own team's tosses to score - two touchdowns. And all this right before Charlie Goodell, our local supporter of the Packers. "Doc** Chamberlin was also a spectator,;.; CHRISTMAS CARDS Have you selected your Christmas feards?

A real Thriller--if any game ever was! Captain and Star Forward of Carroll College is in the Line-up for Genoa. ADliffiSiOH-ADTrtlfg; SOcr WOODSTOCK OUTLASTS MCHS CAGERS, 16-12 SMJwtktn Men Lead All the Way, .'8k Saecamb In Final Mtinfai --Lights Lose McCracken's men got away to the wrong kind of a start Friday evening when they dropped the opener of the cage reason to the Blue and White squad at Woodstock. The locals led at half time and continued to hold this lead up until the last part of the game when Woodstock gradually crept up and took the lead with but a few minutes left to play. It was a nip and tuck game all the way, but the defense employed by the Dalemen had the MCHS lads stumped and they repeatedly had to resort to long shots, a practice that kept them in the lead for the greater part of the game. Their own defense worked fairly well and this accounts for the comparatively low score. The scoring for the locals Was well split up, which may indicate that later on in the season the high school may find they are represented with a wellbalanced squad. Anderson was employed at center and connected twice to lead the scoring. Each x>f the others had one basket. Besides Anderson there were Wegener and Brittain at guard, the latter a product of last year's lights, and Patzke and Frisby worked the forward positions. Frisby is quite small to be used on the first string, but possesses enough ability to let him get away with it. The lightweights also lost a fairly well-played contest by a 22 to 12 score. All of the lads, with the exception of Hetterman and Nye, are new to the game and played very we'l considering. Kinsala was high point man with nine to his credit. It looks like Mac may have something to work on in later "games if this lad keeps coming. He may be just a flash in the pan, but future games will tell. MAACS CAPTURE PIRATES IN ROUGH MELEE, 21-20 Dowell Scores Winning" Basket Am MAACS Win Opener--Ugfc§|* Win 27 to 17 ITafl Dowell, elongated sub-center of the MAACS, jumped into the opening game of the season just long enough to'score once on a sensational push shot from the corner of the floor and there brought victory to the home team in the roughest game that has been played on the home floor in years. The Pirates put up a terrific battle before allowing their black flag to be brought down on its halyards and this caused considerable rought work to come into the game. Gus Freund injured his ankle and will be off his feet for a few days. Kinsala and Frett were also slightly injured and with Fay out on personals the locals were considerably hamper' ed. This may have been the cause of the close score as they were just getting warmed up to the situation as the first of the casualties occurred The Pirates jumped into the lead with the whistle and continued to a six-point advantage which was cut to two points at half time as the MAACS started to click. The third quarter found the locals warming up to the situation and piled up a three point lead after Gus Freund had given them a one-point lead by sinking a pair of freethrows. He left the game shortly after with a sprained ankle. From then on it was nip and tuck, with first one team and then the other in the lead, until Dowell sank his timely field goal a short while before the gun went off. The Ponies had usther an (easy time of it for a while, but Wilmot's lights crept up and came within three points before the locals woke up. With Bob Conway leading the way they ran the score up to a safe margin and coasted home-to victory. Both teams showed some ragged work in spots, but time and action will smooth that down. Grayslake is sending their town team to McHenry Friday night for a practice session against the locals and will give Manager $acon a chance to try out some new combinations. Sunday afternoon will find the huge Chamber of Commerce five from Genoa City opposing the MAACS at the high school gym. The Wisconsin lads have already five victories under their belts and are aching to add the MAACS to their list of victims. Maybe the crippled MAACS will have something to say about that. Don't miss it, as it will be even better tlian the game last year, which the locals won only after polling away in the last quarter. HIGH SCHOOL NOTES The McHenry high school orcheitra went to Crystal Lake Tuesday evening for practice with the Dundee and Crystal Lake orchestras. Following the practice a picture of the orchestra was taken for publication to the National Music Magazine. On December 16 the McHenry orchestra will go to Barrington, where the members will play in a charity concert with the Dundee and Crystal Lake orchestras. Plans are being made by the school nurse to give smallpox vaccinations after the Christmas holidays. Anyone in McHenry township may make use of this opportunity to be immunized.
