" v-f i ? -f Woodstock basketball fans, as well as those around the county, are over joyed at the report that the District tournament is to be held at St. Mary's gymnasium this year. The district event is the big thing in cage circles in these parts with high school teams from Kane, McHenry and possibly part of Cook county taking part. McHenry High cagers threw a real > lire into Dan Horne's strong five Rt >| Harvard- Mac's crew played their did defensive game and it was all the *• northern crew could do to nose out a one-point victory, 16-15. McHenry may not be much on offense, but their defense is going to give some of the other strong -teams in the county something to think about. p- • .father Voet of St. Mary's high Whool in Woodstock has introduced a new and popular sport to the boys. He has organized a boxing class with himself as the- instructor. The lads get quite a kick out of the practice and are all set to put on their first exhibition in St. Mary's* new gym, *which will be held in the very near - future. • ; .The Junior and Senior girls' basket 4 X. teams will present the curtain raiser - to the Hebron-McHenry high school games tomorrow evening. Their game . will begin at 6:30 and will precede the regular light and heavyweight contests. The girls are quite proud of the neat trunks with which they are attired this year, each class having individual colors. * Crystal Lake pulled one for the book last week when they took tho wind out of Elgin's sails by administering a one-point licking to the "prides of Northern Illinois," as the Elgin papers are so want to call the home sons of the largest high school in the district. McHenry county just -can't seem to gain recognition on the hardwood floor, but it is hoped that -His game will be the awakening. Hebron's high school cage team, the one that opens the home season for McCracken's boys Friday night, is worth watching and should make a strong bid with Harvard and Crystal Lake for the county honors this season, despite the fact that they have been defeated at Crystal Lake. Coach Crane knows his offense and has a nicely built bunch of athletes who like their basketball. Watch them Friday night at tteloeal gyik* . STcCracken is evidently ustng^ceretain combinations in his coaching this year as so far he has made no substitution in either of his first string games. Wegener, Patzke and Brittain have played every minute and Vycital and Chuck Peterson replaced Anderson and Frisby at center and guard respectively. Fortunately no injuries have upset his plans and forced subs to be used.

The final score of 34 to 17 was fairly representative. Kinsala led the scoring with enough points to defeat Genoa unaided, scoring eight baskets and a pair of freethrows. The Libertyville Alumni will visit McHenry next Sunday afternoon in what promises to be a thriller when they bump up against the MAACS. of the first quarter found a big round goose-egg on the Harvard side, while baskets by Wegener and Vycital and a freethrow by Patzke gave McHenry five points. Patzke added another freetoss in the second half for Mc- Henry's only point, while Harvard was running up five, leaving the scor* at the half time 6-5. Harvard dropped farther behind in the third period, while Mchenry was scoring five points and holding Harvard to a freethrow. But then the last quarter came along and all hopes went up the chimney as the veterans of the rival Orange and Black solved the defense and drove through for enough points to overcome the lead and then emerge ahead Team No. J.

It is interesting to study the ing of the bowling leagues. In each case the No. 4 team is leading and the No. 3 team is the tailender. Must be that bowlers are susceptible to superstition as well as other athletes. The arrangement of the teams is the same in the Old Timers' League as it is in the Forester. Each league had a star this week that stood head and shoulders above the rest- These bowlers get real hot at dimes add the following were the tycoons for the past week- The Foresters found that Ed SmiA was on and Ed turned in a 625 series with high game of 231. Darwin Granger led the old men at their pastime with a high count of 258 and an aggregate of 614. Covalt also had a good evening in the same circuit with 550. Herman Steffes constructed a 603 series with of neat counts, 212 and 246. He fell down in his second attempt or he'd have set up a new high series for the year. Strain, f Blaine, f Goodell, c ......

The Genoa lads threw a scare into the home lads by taking a 5-fr lead at the start, but they soon fell behind as the MAACS found the man to man defense employed by Genoa too slow to coptwith the fast-breaking olfense cons monly used by the favorites. Kinsala soon had the opposing center bewildered and his mates fed him the ball regularly as he drove in for baskets. Altogether he managed to sink eight counters from scrim mat' and added a pair of freethrows to bring his total points to eighteen, ©rumore than the opponents scored. Gus Freund was still out of th<> if«me with a bum ankle and this left but six men, but they were all that were needed as the score Indicates. Harrison got "hot" on his Ion a shots and led the Ponies to a roughly fought contest, in which the home town junions won 18-15. Legs Dowell got into the scoring column with m points and played the keyman on <>f fense besides. The long build mi; Dowel! makes him an ideal man f i this type of offense and with a littl practice he will develop into a valu able player. * Next Sunday the MAACS ha • scheduled the strong Libert yvi) Alumni, a team composed of form< Libertyville Ifigh cage stars at i boasting a fine record so far, to o)> pose them. This will be the first f the games that will gradually work the MAACS up to their best stri«i< and will undoubtedly present mot* competition than the Genoa Giant- .

These boys are all deaf mutes whose play one would imagine would be handicapped by the inability to shout and call as most teams do. It is the apparent ease with which they over come this shortcoming that adds so much to the amazement of the fans who witness these lads in action. It h a sight that will make sport fans of the real calibre stop and think and make them realize just how thankful they should be that they possess all their senses. McCracken fully realises that his boys are in for a busy evening an is stressing that game with more than the usual amount of preparation. It should be a game well worth watching:, but in the meantime don't forget that j Hebron plays here Friday night (i-- morrow night) and that Hebron recently trimmed Woodstock after the county-seat boys had nosed out McHenry in the first game of the season.
