JOHNSBURG DEFEATS IRISH PRAIRIE TEAM Jfoe and Jim Walsh, better known as the "twins," and Gene Sayler took tb the annual Cary Hill Climb, the tough event in which cyclists try to conquer a steep hill while riding their powerful motorcycles, last Sunday and report it one of the most thrilling sights ever witnessed. News reel cameras were in abundance but one cameraman had the misfortune to suddenly descend the hill while tangled tip with his apparatus. •its The Racetrack at Aurora and Sportsman's Park at Cicero, commonly known as the "Dog Track," because of its half-mile circumference, have closed for the season and the racing fans of the Chicago district must now focus their interest in the ponies on Washington Park, where the action commenced last Monday. Washington is quite a jaunt from here and most of tiie "bugs" will now await the opening of Arlington before showing any active interest in the sport. The soft ball league was due to start action Tuesday evening, bat a much-needed rain slightly interfered with their plans. A new backstop has been erected in the city park, made necessary by the movement of the diamond so that it faces northeasterly instead of directly north as iri the past. Several trees had to be moved to make room for the diamond, the work being handled by Anton P. Freund, but everything is now in readiness for the season's opener. " The old McHenry White Sex were mentioned in an interesting article printed in Harvey T. Woodruff's "Wake of the News" in Monday morning's Chciago Tribune. J. J. J. is the author, whoever he might be, and tells of the old time team under the management of genial Dick Walsh that played annual games with the Chicago White Sox and other big league clubs and also mentioned the popularity of the team with the college players as they knew they would be treated right and vjould be given a chance to hook up with big league teams. ATHLRIOS KIP. XJlBABH AMD ALOOITQOTH 2 TO 1 * $ The ICcHenry Athletics, led by their star hurler, Bick, made it' four straight for the season by nipping Marv LaBahn and his Algonquin nine in a nip and tuck battle which ended 2-1 after nine exciting innings, with many threatening rallies, each of which fell short of tying the score, the two runs scosed by the McHenry boys on a hit batsman, a single by Bick, and two wild pitches, looking bigger and bigger as the game wore on. LaBahn probably was the greater pitcher of the two, allowing'but four hits to Bick's eight, but those two wild pitches of his nullified his otherwise neat exhibition. Bick kept his hits well scattered and was supreme with men in scoring position while his support, though erratic during the late innings, always seemed to come through at the opportune moment. LaBahn. fanned seven and walked one while Bick fanned four and walked three. 4m tffti , " ••• I AMD ATHLEtXOS HERE SUNDAY r, MAY 26, mm •BP N«*t Sunday the Athletics fight it ^hu^H^..?.!* x T AS1 rnA /*! f*T ^nomniAminiM >4-k _ * Phannenstili, rf Schroeder, c Thorsell, «£ Last Sunday the McHenry Locals hooked up with Lake Zurich in a pitching duel with McHenry returning ttfe victor 5-2.

This week-end finds the Locals clashing with the highly touted Athletics on Sunday and the colored Monarchs of Elgin on Decoration Day- Last year the Locals beat thj» colored lads on a neutral diamond 5-3.

Neither team scored till the fourth when the Shamrocks bunched a few hits to get two runs. Johnsburg came back in the fifth with three singles topped by a triple by Hettermann and an error on third netting four runs. After the fourth Schaefer bore down and the Shamrocks failed to make any more runs. In the seventh Adams of Johnsburg led off with a double and romped home on Smith's double. Glosson, the Shamrock pitcher, had four strikeouts to his credit and allowed four hits. Todd, the pitcher who relieved Glosson in the sixth, had one strikeout to his credit and allowed four hits. Schaefer had fifteen strikeouts to his credit and allowed seven scattered hits. Next Sunday the Johnsburg crew faces Wonder Lake at Johnsburg. Wonder Lake has the celebrated Nick back as pitcher.

Longer than Seb Whiting has played around these parts, which makes one remember those childhood games played back of Jepson's in the days when McHenry and Ringwood used to have their annual fracas and McHenry would make it an all-day affair by taking the morning train to Ringwood, eating lunch in the "city square" next to Bradley's store and then return on the evening train after playing ball all afternoon. The McHenry High School girls' tennis team won their annual match with Crystal Lake's fair sex by taking all four matches. The games were hurried through in an effort to get them completed before the showers of Tuesday afternoon and were completed just before the rainfall commenced. Mildred Thompson and Wanda Smith won their singles events only after being forced to the limit of three sets by their worthy adversaries. In the doubles this same pair teamed up to win their match and then Arleen Bacon and Frances Hughes stepped forth to earn their brackets in the other doubles match of the day.
