Linke was brought on the western trip to j ' pitch to the batters in practice and at the same time acquire the needed experience to qualify hfaa for a higher berth. " A1 Linke showed himself to be a trae sportsman when he allowed a pinch-runner to replace Johnson on third after Mickey had opened an old injury to his knee and later allowed Johnson to resume his old place in the infield. After all, it isn't the victory that counts but the manner in which it was attained.

If the present dope goes through, the County Junior Legion teams are again to witness the Cubs in action as guests of William Wrigley, Jr. Last year John L. McCabe, then Athletic Director of the County Legion, innovated this practice and it is now up to Director A1 Kuppe to continue the good work. We understand that Al is now working out plans for the Jtrip. It is estimated that over one hundred lads will make the trip if accommodations can be arranged to care for their transportation. The date is to be announced latter. ~ ' :>s * Wonder Lake chimed in with a neat 8-0 victory over Crystal Lake. Manvses hurled for the Wonder lads and was most of the show, hitting a home run for his share of the offensive honors. He struck out eleven and al lowed seven hits. The Wonder Lake huis are the next on the card for the Athletics, following the Waukegan Majors and will appear here August & loe Regner, the scoot who rounded jTSd Linke from the sand lots of Chicago and brought him to Johnsburg, where he turned out to be a find, has seemingly unearthed another good proapect in this Manuses. The" lad has turned in two very neat exhibitions in his last two starts for Wonder Lake, trimming the Crystal Lake Moose 2-0 last Sunday. If Joe can bat a thousand with his prospects maybe some big league team will offer him $ nice check for his services as a scout. And, peculiarly enough, both these pitchers seem able to. hit the ball. Linke's ability is well known locally; and this Manuses chimed in with a home run for one of 1» the two runs scored off Young ci the Moose aggregation. The report is out that Cdbs afil after Art Shires, the natural athlete that was spoiled by too much paper talk, but who has staged a remarkable comeback in baseball with the Milwaukee Club this summer. At present Shires is leading the American Association in batting with a mark over .400. The management if the Cubs deny that any strings have been attached But do intimate that their scouts have been looking him over. And Charlie Grimm can't last forever though the pace he is setting at present leada on* to think ha isnt quite through. "Spots" Thurlwell deserves much credit for his display of talent in the game Sunday. Even though this was his first appearance in. any big game before a real crowd, "Spots" was equal to the task and worked like an old timer. With a few more games added to his education he should be able to step into faster company without fear of the result. He certainly deserves a better career than has been his in the past. The crowd treated him very kindly and there is no question bat that he was the favorite from the minute ha stepped on the mound. .

Linke on the eastern trip with the White Sox the northern lads resorted to a little strategy and sent "Spots Thurlwell to the mound to "exhibit his youthful wares. "Spots" turned in a mighty neat exhibition and far sur passed the expectations of even the most friendly fans. He allowed but eight hits before retiring in the eighth after a hard line drive had injured his pitching hand. Besides this neat hurling he got one of the five hits off LaBahn, who was returned to the mound against the old rivals after his July Fourth defeat at their hands. Misplays on both sides had much to do with the scoring, but for once McHenry was equally benefited by the breaks and it was this that brought home the victory. Three errors apiece were charged the teams, but this doesn't include the many errors of judgment that were very noticeable and which served to keep the score very cloee all the way through. Johnson's single in the eighth led to the winning run. Mickey lined a drive down the left field line, but was stopped at first very wisely as Smith fielded the ball neatly. He went to second on a passed ball, hesitated there while Thurlwell knocked down Buhrow's liner and threw him out. It was this liner that injured "Spots' " hand and forced his retirement from the game. Blake replaced him and immediately walked S. Whiting, Johnson stealing third on the fourth ball which Linke momentarily dropped. McClees then sent a long fly to left and the winning > run came in after the catch. Johnsburg started the seoring in the second when Linke singled to open the inning. Anderson then swooped one to left center for three bases and came home when Joe Freund allowed the third strike .in Hammond to escape him. The A's came back with one tally to reduce the lead by half. Buhrow was safe on an error by Schenk when the latter threw wild to first. Huh row taking second. S. Whiting scored him with the first of his run producing singles. Johnsburg added one In the fifth only to have the A's come back with two to tie the score. Huemann walked and stole second when Freutf8*b peg was wild. Thurlwell bounc/d to Johnson, who threw him out, (Hue^ mann holding second. Huemann took third on a passed ball and scored when Schenk rolled to Johnson who threw wild to the plate. For the locals, McClees lined a hajd single 'o left. Fay, who had replaced Joe Freund behirid the plate, was unharmed when hit by a pitched ball. Sam* «fg ^fil'^iting stoU second and LaBahn scored him with a single to center, tying the score. The sixth again produced some run-making, but left them tied at 4 all. For Johnsburg LaRocco fanned. Linke lined a drive to right center which fast fielding by Whiting held to a single. Anderson then hit a perfect double play ball to M. Whiting, but the lad was over-anxious and muffed the chance, both runners being safe. Hammond got credit for a double when his fly to left fell fair by inches, Linke scoring and Anderson stopping at third. L. Smith fanned and Huemann was out, H. Freund to Schumacker. The A's got theirs on a hit batsman, Buhrow, and a single by Whiting, which sent him to third. . He then scored when Fay hit a soft one that just got by the mound, but which waa retrieved too late by Hammond to make the play at the plate. The manner in which the game was won has been related. LaBahn sent them down one-two-three in the last three frames, but was ably assisted by a neat double play in the sixth. Thurlwell led off with a ground single past short. Chas. Smith batted for Schenk and hit one to Johnson, who threw to M. Whiting, forcing Thurlwell and the relay was in time >6fte, ss --. 4 La&eeco, lb »*••«•»?. 4 Iftfta, c I.-..-... 8 Awdorson, rf 4 Hammond, 2b 4 L.

The A's had expected to face fast ball pitching and were not equal to the task of poking out the slow ones as they did so effectively against Cox of the Union Giants last week, when they got twelve safeties. Most of the balls hit to the outfield were pop flies, resulting from the slow balls though there were several liners direct to the fielders' hands. Waukegan Majors Next Next Sunday the Waukegan Majors, in former years the strongest team on the North Shore, a nine that boasts in their lineup the names of several former major leaguers, and who have a reputation of being a hard-hitting nine, will visit the local park. Ervin is slated to hand them his deceptive slants in an effort to curb their hard-hitting tactics. The game should be a big attraction as this is the same aggregation that handed Johnsburg such a decisive defeat last season. McHenry has now won two straight from teams that had previously defeated them and they now feel that they have at last settled down to a winning stride. The prices will again be at the reduced rates of twenty and thirty-five ceata JOHNSBURG-- Schenk* 3b 8 0 0 8 0 1 C. Smith, If 1 0 "0" 10 0 WON BT HERB FREUND Public Pulse (AO communications for this department must be signed by the writer, otherwise they will not be published. The Plaindealer invites its readers to express their opinions in these columns.) Final computing of. the standings in the McHenry Rifle club competition for high aggregate honors in the Small Bore class award the victory to none other than Herb Freund, lone representative of the Freunds in this event. Herb scored a well-deserved victory as he piled "up a big margin in the 100-yard event and was close to the top in the 50. Although bested by six points in the long range trials his competitor, Wm. Casper*, didn't come back strong enough to press him seriously and was forced to be satisfied with third place. Lester Bacon placed second, Ave points behind Freund. The events figured m the standing were the 50, 100 and 200-yard matches with 40 shots on the 50 and 100-yard courses and 20 on the longer 200-yard range. The possible score is 1000. Twenty-two calibre rifles were used in all events. This is Herb's first major title and his name will now be inscribed on the trophy, a neat loving cup. The next match will be held July 26 and is the Small Trophy match with 20 shots at 50 and 100 yards. It is the^hnost important match with the single exception of the Bank competition. It has often been decided with the last few shots and competition is always close and interesting.

McHenry finally won a ball game from Johnsburg. In the seventh encounter in two years McHenry was the victor. Many words could be written about the game but it is sufficient to say it was very badly played, seven errors being charged against the Indians, while five were given to McHenry. Strange to say the 'catchers on both teams, Linke for Johnsburg and Freuqd for the Athleties, each committed three. Nevertheless, Linke caught a better game than Freund. In fact, there was and can be no comparison. The game was marred by the indecision of the umpire. In three instarfces his judgment was very bad. To tell the truth, it was almost ridiculous. To make a bad condition, worse, he actually asked a player's opinion on a close play. Thurlwell, a McHenry boy, pitched a wonderful game against his home town. This boy, Thurlwell, is about the neatest piece of baseball material that McHenry has ever turned out- McHenry won the game, but it wasn't the team--it was the umpire. No fault whatsoever can be found in Thurlwell's pitching. He had his foes stopped dead. Loose fielding in a couple of instances gave them the chance to win. The game was a thriller, Thurlwell' pitching tight ball in the pitches. Thurlwell could beat the McHenry club every time with fair support, that is the support Johnsburg is noted for giving Its pitcher. It seems now that tla. McHenry team has actually won a game from Johnsburg, they are reluctant to give the Indians a future game. I suppose they expect to rest on their laurels, that of winning one game out of seven. Perhaps, also, they may be leary of facing Thurlwell again. Respectfully, L. W- GRAHAM. P. S.--Hiurlwell could beat McHenry any day in the week and twice on Sunday. L. W. G. wom» tanas OUT CRYSTAL T tmm Manuses batted and pitched Wonder Lake to a thrilling victory over the Moose nine of Crystal with the score of 2-0 fairly representative of the relative strength of the clubs. The new hurler of the Wonder team struck out eleven and allowed but seven scattered hits. He was pressed in only one inning, the i>mi( but extricated himself in fashion. Besides his skillful handling of the mound work he hammered out a home run in the ninth to increase the one run lead that his team enjoyed up to that time. It was a terrific drive over the tracks in left field, the second time that this has been accomplished since the origin of the field. The first run of the game was scored by Freund when Young unleashed a wild pitch when the former was occupying third. Next Sunday Wonder Lake wQl go to Spring Grove where they will do battle with Joe Britz and his boys. The Spring Grove boys are playing heads up baseball this year, and though not the classiest ball {jmmi in these parts, they are always able to give a good account of themselves. They already boast an eatiy victory over the Lakers.
