Well, they're not so had, at that, and Harry Morris thinks those horrid old supervisors of the tennis courts in Chicag<r that barred young ladies so attired most have been old fogies. McHenry's Legion n!ne made good use of the local field last Sunday morning, trimming the Lincoln-Belmont YMCA nine 5-4 in a nice exhibition. Freund struck out fifteen men and allowed but five hits, while Lay was leading the hitting parade with a triple and a double. Watch for the announcement of the next game. John Boiger, One of the new members of the McHenry Country club, scored an eagle on the par four 14th last week. John had a better th*n average drive asd sunk his approach in real professional manner to get his t?ro. Prof. A. E, Nye was the witness to the feat. Hope it isn't * GK fag. ' V" •. • ' Woodstock golfers are visiting the McHenry Country club this afternoon ift a return engagement between the two clubs. The McHenry contingent enjoyed an afternoon of friendly competition at Glen Crest the fore part of July and hope that they can prove to be as good at playing hosts as were the county-seaters, The annual Caddy Tournament is to take place next week at the local coarse. It will be a handicap affair Willi Granger, Vale Adams and Sonny Johnson having the inside track, according to advance dope. Anytime you desire a little stiff competition jost take one of these caddies oat for around. It may be interesting to local baseball fans to know that the Clancy now playing first base with Brooklyn, that is hitting the ball to all corners of the field, is none other than the old White Sox first Backer that was at Johnsburg the day the White Sox exhibited there. If he keeps up his present work it will be goodbye Kelly, and maybe Bisonette also. Deivall huried a mighty nice game last Sunday and needed but little help and Harold Freund furnished some of that ill a pinch when he made a onehanded stab of a low liner that was labelled a hit in the eighth. Doc Mengs and his Woodstock base, ball team vied with the Shamrocks at the Irish Prairie diamond last Sunday and managed to outlast them to gain a 13-10 decision in an old-fashion, ed slftgfest. The Shamrocks considered it a moral victory as it was the fastest team they have encountered to date and they feel proud of the fact that they scored ten runs off Doc's delivery. The Olympic games at L A. are holding the spotlight those days on the sports pages and well they might with the great race put on by Tolan and Metcalf in the 100-meter dash. They were inches apart at the finish and had the judges puzzled for a moment as to which one was the winner, but Tolan was given the prize, a verdict affirmed by the moving pictures taken of the race. The old world's record of 10.6 seconds was lowered .3 of a secondhandJs Jjow held, jointly by both the colored stars of the middle west. _ .< y';'-'" Quito a shock the sport fans gut when the announcement was made over the radio Tuesday night that Hornsby had resigned as manager of the Chicago Cubs to be succeeded by Charlie Grimm. But to many it was quite a pleasant chock and they believe that it will be for the good of the Chicago sports public and the team as well. Mac carried a lot of friends with him when he went to the Yanks, but Charlie was always well liked and will bring many of them back again. \ Jimmy Fay is back in town and the lineup of the Athletics, after spending the greater part of the summer at the Illinois University Summer Coaching school. Jim included in his schedule plenty about the subject of baseball, especially its technical side, and is glad of an opportunity to practice what he has learned. Jim played first base last Sunday and improved considerably before the game ended. Brother John also was a McHenry visitor this week for a few days. He is attending Northwestern University and holds down a position in Chicago during the summer months. VKVAXX. TRIMS K. of L. e-3. A'o OR UPO&ASK Double header next Sunday for the Athletics! It's the first one of the season and should bring out a good crowd. Johnsburg and the Algonquin Cubs will furnish the hostilities and the first game will start at 1:15. Hope Charlie Reihansperger and John Bolder, the good luck omens of the Athletics, are present. They were both there when the McHenry nine upset the darkies and they were there again Sunday when the EL of L'b were ua expectedly defeated. -Jack Smith attended the Illinois State Rifle Match at Fort Sheridan and managed to bring home a lion's share of the prizes, he winning the Feltes Tropny for the 200-yard event and a gold medal for first prize and also capturing a silver medal for his work in the thousand-yard event, narrowly missing the Tribune Trophy for first place. McHenry Rifle club members are proud to have John as a fellow member and no doubt his feats will encourage other marksmen to join the club and get regular practice pn the local range. The old adage that the Athletics play better ball against better teams Held true Sunday and enabled the locals to trounce the touted Knights of Lithuania, generally conceded to be the best team in these parts, by a 6-3 margin in a well-played ball game. Two of the visitors' runs came in the ninth and brought the score up to more respectable proportions. A larrre portion ot the glory fot •he unlooked for victory sftould go to Dievall, who hurled some mighty neat ball though allowing nine hits over the nine inning route. He kept the bingles well scattered and might have escaped unscathed had he got the breaks. As it was the last two enemy runs were scored on errors and the first one tallied on a scratch bit. Dievall also drove in two nms that put the A> in the lead in the second inning and they were never headed thereafter. Harold Freund continued his hitting streak which has ROW reached seven games not having been held hitkss, since Spots Thurtwell performed Archdale, 2b against the A's on June 12. His av-' <*b .... erage was boosted to .871 with two out of four. This same Freund started the Athletics with a single over third and came all the way home when J. Kuzmic tossed Bick's sacrifice away past first. Bick stopped at third but could not be scored when Bro&nan, Archdale, the new second sacker, and Bacon all fanned. The score was tied in the second when H. Raasch, one of the troublesome Raasch brothers, tripled to left center. He scored when N. Kuzmic lined one down the third base line that Bacon just tagged. From then until the ninth only one man reached second and he was doubled up when this same N. Kuzmic lined to Archdale. In the meantime the Athletics, heartened by the break in the first, decided to do some scoring on their own part Fay reached first safely when Farley chose to take his popup on the bounce and then threw his hurried throw away. Eddie Frett scratched a swinging hit down the third base line and went to second when Kuzmic again threw wildly t» first. Joe Freund's grounder went through Kabarec for an error and Fay scored, Frett stopping at third. Deivall scored Frett and J. Freund with a line, single to right center, but was forcedi at secon«t by H. Freund. Brodman was also safe on another error by Kabarec, but nothing came of it. Not satisfied with the three-run lead the A's pummelled Kuzmic, whose entire monicker is somewhat longer than the abbreviated form, for some more hits and a pair of runs in the fourth. Joe Freund' started things off with a solid smack to left center good for two bases at Joe's 8peed, which improves when he wears his shin guari!s $ehmd the pUtfc< t)el. vail and H. Freund popped tp but Bkk popped up in a different manner and his single to right scored Joe. Joe Brodman then drove one over Kepter's head in left and Bick keored but Brodman over-ran second and was out to end the rally. The two runs scored by the K^ghts in the ninth might have been avoided but they were harmless so what matters. H. Raasch got his second hit, a single to center, and C. Raasch singled to right. Bick threw to Bacon too late to get one Raasch and then Bacon threw rashly to secon^to get the other Raasch, who was attempting to advance on the throwin, but Bacon's throw was wild and both runners took another base, C. Raasch scoring. Kabarec flied to Frett in short center and the runner held his base, wisely, as Frett's throw was perfect. N. Kuzmic then rolled one through H. Freund's legs and the third and last run qf the was scored. ' •• - / • ATHLETICS^ ' •' , H.

The'last game was lost Sunday at the hands of the strong North .Chicago All-Stars 4-0 at Waukegan. "Hoopy" Schoewer was on the mound for McHenry and allowed nine scattered hits. He deserved a much better fate than was dished out because only one run was earned. He performed like a major and kept the enemy well in control. The opposing pitcher allowed four hits which were very well scattered. The old timely punch was sadly lacking on numerous occasions when a solid blow would have netted a few needed runs- In the first inning, North Chicago earned their sole run, due to our unfamiliarity of the diamond. The first man up, Ross, bunted down the third base line and was safe. Sank up drove a grounder to right and moved JRoss to third. Wabansic walked, loading the sacks, and while Smith tossed out Burvisv Ross scored. LKOIOH KIDS TSIM v BBLMONT-LINCOLN 5-4 McHenry Legion Kids walloped the pitching of Reich for seven hits which were just enough to enable them to nose out the Lincoln-Belmont Y pine 5-4 in a Sunday morning tilt at the local diamond. Leo Freund hurled good ball for McHenry and deserved to win though it took some timely hitting by his mates to push over the winning tally. Leo Lay led the hitting with a double and triple and ZtTBOf, filling in at shortstop, also came in for his share of the glory by driving in the winning run.| Afield he also distinguished himself with a sparkling fielding play.

Jack Smith came home with a pair of medals and the Feltes trophy an emblems of his ability to handle heavy artillery, better known as the 30.06 rifles. His trophy was for winning the 200-yard matches for which he also received a gold medal. A silver medal was presented him for taking second place in the Tribune Trophy match at 1,000 yards, a distance at which he has had no opportunity to practice as McHenry does not afford bim ample room for til* range of that length. Roy Milkr, a newconagr, who ha* just started activity with the club, is coming fast and at present is about 25 or 30 points better than the average m«snber at the start. 29 Shots at 50 and 100 Yard* : Roy K&mholz 192 1$2--&M Jack Smith .....
