This ought to make Pela forget that he fanned with the bases fall in the seventh. Harold Freund, Stub Dthft and and Pela Schumacher divided the honors in the game Sunday for the Athletics. Harold got two hits and handled twelve chances in the field and though he drew two errors he turned in some sparkling plays, one of them being a leaping back-hand catch of a drive in the sixth.

By mental suggestion they may do so. Red, for Instance, Is stimulating, sunshine yellow enlivening, asd soft bines and maaves distinctly soothing. The smallest crowd of the season witnessed one of the most interesting boseball games yet played on the > field in which the touted Waukegan Majors of Keller fame went down in defeat before an uphill battie lqr the Athletics. The score finally from a series of ties and rallies to become a 6-5 victory for the locals. Ervin pitched great ball but a first inning upheaval gave the "Big Boy" a bad sendoff. Thirteen hits were garnered off the delivery of Bick, but he bore down in the pinches and made them necessary. Buhrow's double led up to the winning tally in the last of the ninth after the score had been tied at five all from the sixth onward- Nig started for third when Stub Dahn, a mighty sweet looking newcomer^ grounded to short, but the shortstop threw the ball over Krepas' head and the game ended in a manner entirely unbefitting such an interesting combat. The Majors jumped off to a two-run lead by standing in the breadline in the first inning. Raines was easy for Johnson and Schumacher, but Ervin lost Yonic's high infield fly in the sun and it fell for a hit. Mullen then singled to left, but the ball went through Buhrow's legs and Yonic scored Mullen stopping at third. McKillen scored him with a line drive to left. Anderson then popped up behind second and Melvin Whiting lost the ball in the sun, but recovered in time to force Anderson at second. This state of affairs went along until the third, with McHenry getting but one hit, a scratch by Harold Freund in the first. He was picked off first when he changed his mind about stealing on a short passed ball. In the third Stub Dahn tied up the ball game with a mighty triple to right with H. Freund and Buhrow aboard. It was the first of Stub's three hits- The Majors came through with ahother big rally as the result of the tie score, but it was their last scoring effort of the day. Ervin launched ,it by walking the first two men. Fos ter then singled and Lincke forced Krepas at third. Bick picked out a nice one and sailed it to right center for a double, Foster scoring and Lincke taking third. Kaires grounded to Johnson and the runners were held. Yonic was safe on H. Freund's error, Lincke scoring. Mullen was hit on the knee with a pitched ball, but McKillen was handled on a neat play by Melvin Whiting. From then until the finish but three men an inning faced Ervin, Bick's second hit in the ninth providing the extra man. The A's continued to peek away at the lead and finally emerged in tha ninth to victory. In the fourth Pela Schumacher's home-run into deep right, the first homer of the season in any athletic game, brought the score to 5-3. It was a mighty drive far into Jerry Newman's potato patch aad wte imal drfewmt prise* for Pela. .•.» ' Another m was chopped off the lend by Buhrow and Dahn in the fifth when Buhrow walked with one down and went to third on Dahn's second hit. A delayed double steal was put under way, bat Dahn was headed back to first and Buhrow went home while Krepas was pawing the dost for a low throw from Kaires. Three hits, two of them doubles, proved to be good for but one run in the sixth, but that run tied the score and made a real ball game of it the rest of the way. Pela opened the inning with a swooping two-bagger to left center. Johnson then sent a high fly to center that looked like it might be caught and Pela held close to second. The ball dropped and Pela broke for home, but McKillen recovered on the first bounce and the relay caught Pela at the plate. S. Whiting then came through with a single over second and Johnson ambled home with the tying run. Three more hits made things look bad for Bick irt the seventh, but be pitched his way oat in great shape. H. Freund started things with a looping single to left- Buhrow flied to left. Dahn got his third hit when his texas leaguer dropped safely. Bacon batted for Fay and dropped another texas leaguer in center, filling the bases. Schumacher strode out and Johnson popped to second. You already know how the winning run was handed out to complete a very pleasing exhibition of the national pastime. Next Sunday Wonder Lake, featuring the slants of Minuses and tfce all-around team play of the revised team in general, whieh includes in its lineup Joe Regner, Gus Freund and Hoopy Smith, will play their first game with McHenry since the opening tilt of the season at Wonder Lake, in which the Lakers downed the A's.

The Plaindealer invites its renders to express their opinions in these columns.) VOICE FROM ST. LOUIS St. Louis, July 25, 1981. Allow me to extend congratulations to the McHenry Athletics for having won one out of seven games against the Johnspurg team. The Up-Rivers won so regular it had almost become monotonous to read about it. But it's a long road that has no turn, and no doubt that turn was to a great extent brought about by means of the very valuable assistance rendered by the two Up-River experts, who evidently presumed they were too valuable to play with their home town team, and seemingly were eagerly picked up by the Athletics. Now then, being so wonderfully backed up, will the Athletics have the courage to play two more games against the Up-Rivers to show who will be the champions this year? If not, one must come to the conclusion that they are afraid of the outcome. As it stands now the honor will again go to Johnsbarg>--yoa have one more chance. Let's go! H. M. FREUND.

Hawley went the route for the Lakers and coasted along after his mates gave him a 4-1 lead in the first five innings. A four-run Bplurge in the sixth sewed the contest up securely. Wonder Lake's dozen hits included four triples and a homer, Hawley being the author of the later when his pop fly back of first was lost in the high grass- The rough condition of the diamond made the play somewhat loose, but it was an interesting exhibition. A peculiar play gave Spring Grove their run in the first. A tap rolled down the base line to Wahl, which the umpire prematurely termed foul. Wahl allowed the ball to continve and it touched the bag which automatically made it a fair ball. Wahl then picked up the ball and returned it to the pitcher without tagging the bag which allowed the runner to reach first safely. Luecht's triple in the game was the longest of the season and 'tis said it would have cleared the bleachers in the White Sox park. ' Wonder Lake appears at McHenry next Sunday in their first billing. The locals were trimmed soundly by tKe Lakers in a pre-season contest and are out to square things. LaBahn and Freund will work for McHenry with Manusts or Hawley and Kaplin forming the battery for the Wonder Lake nine In recent games the Hitchens squad have played some greatly improved Rail and are said to be able to give the locals all they have coming to them.
