Johnsburg was supposed to organize a baseball team and were to begin to practice several weeks ago but there must have been a hitch in their plans as nothing has been heard of them since. McHenry's A's had a game scheduled with them for last Sunday but were forced to substitute Huntley instead. At that, Johnsburg's efforts shouldn't have been much more futile than those of the Huntley nine. McHenry easily took the triangular track meet which included MCHS, Grant High and Richmond. Grant Township high hails from Fox' Lake and recently handed McHenry a trimming in a very close match by winning the relay from the McCracken team. Richmond lost their dual meet but in doing so captured more firsts than McHenry. This time the tables were turned and the local lads showed the results of their hard work of the past few weeks by gaining ample revenge. He final score was MCHS 66, Grant 31%, Richmond 27%. Jtw LpBafcn, working for tlufAlgoaqifal dab, trimmed €pint Ervin, on thf mound for the Dundee Peerless, 4-8 In ihfetr first meeting of the year. Marv and Clint were both members of the Athletics last season and fans may be interested in their work this season as McHenry will probably be meeting both of them before the season is much older. LaBahn fanned 14 of the Peerless in turning his victory. The McHenry Locals strayed a little out of their class Sunday and took a bad trimming at the hands of the Dietz' Stable nine 12-1, Brascher was good all the way fori the winners while Spots' behaviour didn't succeed in bringing home a victory. The crowds at Ivanhoe this year are as large as ever with the old traditional "collection" system being used. Wonder how the gate receipts total up?? -/v-yuV' 'C:; During this rainy weather a plea to keep off the tennis courts whenever they are the least bit damp is not out of order. The work of weeks can be offset in a few moments by digging up the surface^with sudden stops and constant dashing about if the surface isn't dry enough to withstand the abuse. For the good of others and for the promotion of your own pleasure-- stay off the tennis courts when they are not thoroughly dry. The American Legion Kids have been out practicing whenever the diamond was in a playable condition and are now just about all get for the coming season. Woodstock will have but one team this year instead of two and there will be other teams from the southern part of the county with Cary and Algonquin organizing. This youth movement is great stuff anid the results can already t>e seen on some of the agmUppo tewju abogt the yir cinity. t Golfers are among those who would be willing to have daylight savings time if it-would just stop this rain and bring about some good old summer weather would sort of melt down their scores so that they would at least begin to look respectable. The weather this spring hasn't been at all kind to the members and has brought about this type of an answer to the question, "Been playing any golf?" 'iNo, not since February." * Last Sunday morning dawned bright and clear and would have been a perfect one for the rifle club to hold a match, the first decent day that has presented itself in sometime but of course they weren't scheduled for a match that morn. It has so happened for the past two years that most of their matches have been shot on days that the wind was too strong or the visibility too poor or something else was at fault and the nice days always come along on the off Sundays. Guess they just don't live right. Dirrz's otna tm* LOCALS The McHenry Locals took a onesided beating from the Diets Cub* Sunday by the score of 12 to 1. There was nothing spectacular in McHenry's front, but "Bob" Brascher cWtainly was the man of the hour. He kept the eight McHenry hits well scattered and had them eating from his hand. O- Baker was the real slugger for Dietz with three doubles. You can read the rest t&f, story in the box score: AB R H C E - 8 0 McHENRY-- Stoffel, 3b M. Kreutzer, 2b T. Anderson, If .........

All of this trio were on the local roster last season and will be well remembered by local fans who have seen them in action many times. Bick will be on the mound for the A's with Joe Freund on the other end of the battery and should give the hard hitting Parksides plenty to think about.

Score " •»., McHenry, 66--8 Firsts; 1 Tiii Grant, 31%--2 Firsts, 1 7 Richmond, 27%--3 Firsts. ' Contrary to advance dope based upon the results of previous track and field meets the McHenry High School track team emerged victorious by a large margin in their triangular meet which included Grant Township High of Eox Lake and Richmond. In the track meets held within the past month, McHenry was once defeated by Grant and in turn trimmed Richmond though the latter led in first places, being defeated only hjp the success of McHenry athletes in placing and showing. McHenry took eight first place and tied for one to total 66 points while the best either of the others could do was to gain three firsts and an accumulation of 31% points. Richmond had 27% to bring up the rear. McKenxy won the relay by a large margin and from the same team that trimmed them by so narrow a margin several weeks ago which seems to indicate that the local lads are getting results from the h&rd work they are putting in on the track this season, the first that track has ever aroused much interest among local athletes. Ev*n among the non- participating students the enthusiasm is at the highest pitch ever known over events of this kind, possibly because winning teams have been scarce during the past season. • Suaamaiy • -- „ Shotput--Klaus (G), C.

Of course, this idea is Elgin's alone, but their past record speaks well for their ability to place games in the v?in column as they are champions of Elgin for 1930 and "31. Young, thesold reliable, will be on the mound for the invaders and he is one tough pitcher to get to when he is right McHenry has been clouting the ball in great shape during their preliminary games, but have as yet met with no hurler that was in midseason form. What they will do with this Young is something else and something that is bothering Manager Walt not a littlef Bick is all ready to go the route for the A's and Joe Freund will be behind the bat as usual. This Bictc has looked mighty good so far and has been scored upon in but one inning and has been touched for but six hite in the ten innings he has worked, while he has fanned thirteen. His left-handed slants differ from the usual southpaw hooks and curves in that they find the plate with almost unerring accuracy. He hasn't been forced to really bear down as yet and fans are anxious to see what he does under some tense strain. As a ball player he knows the game and conducts himself accordingly. Familiar Faces With Elgin Included in the Elgin lineup this year will be Schumacher and Buhrow of last year's McHenry nine. Pela fcnd Nig will be right at home on the local field and will greet many friends with their old familiar "Howdy." Stub Dahn has also been in the game with tne Parksides at intervals and the hard-hitting outfielder will probably be on hand Sunday. Dahn also played several games with McHenry last season, but couldn't seem to find his stride and was released. AthlcAks 16, Huntley 2 The diamond dried off enough under the torrid sun last Sunday morning so that the Athletics were able to administer a 16 to 2 drubbing to the Huntley nine. McHenry scored three in the first and a like number in the yiSfSs aotft to Aw up the gtme. After «h«fc it was Just a matter «f Compi«ti*g*he -orgy wbkh lasted the usual nine innings despite the fact that ilnrkniw threatened to interfere and isolate some of the A's on base. Schultz, Johnson and Wehrle ireie all pounded hard and received mediocre support. Bick hurled the first six innings for the A's and gave up buf six hits and two runs, both of tiw tallies coming in the second as did three of the hits. Schoewer worked the last three frames, gave no hit* and struck out six, which is mighty neat^ work even against a weak hittings aggregation. N. Kalsow led the Huntley attack with three of the six hits and played a nice game at first. McHENRY-- H. Freund, ss. .. H. Bacon, cf-3b Kreutzer, cf .... Britz, If Schoewer, p ....... S.
