With three Hermans on the team, each woman should find one whom «*oW pick as her man. Northwestern has a tall, rangy t--m this year that should tarn out some victories despite a pretty toagh schedule. With Marquette, Notre Dame, Pittsburg, Purdue and Wisconsin in a row there can be no letdown but Coach Lonberg has a set of men that can stand the gaff and, with a little polish, should tarn into a mighty good outfit. *• Quite a hangup time Coach Orr nnri his boys had going to the rules discussion meeting at Northwestern University last Monday night. They learned what personal contact was on the way over and then saw plenty of it in the Bradl^y NU game which followed the meeting. They were guests of Lowe and Campbell as were coaches and players of other schools in the vicinity. BVom the way the Notrt Dams infirmary toll is counting up it looks like it's going to be a mighty tough Saturday, for someone, , probably Southern Cal., though they have walked away with the coast championship this fall. Anderson and his men got their feet under them in (he Army game arid now know that they can go places. The middle west to a man is hoping they do, and nsaybe USC will be wishing they had. -rv «• m A big bowling match is on tap f of next Sunday afternoon and if nothing better presents itself it would do no harm to <Jrop arouhd. Joe Freund's Pleasure dub <fui£tejb has been challenged by a team of Westsiders, the personnel of which is not quite complete. Don Harrison is getting them together and the team will have Gordon Campbell, Huppy Smith, Don Harrison and two men out of the group of Kreutzer, Bob Weber and Bacon. It was planned to use Bill Bickler, but an all-West Side team was decided upon and it is hoped that Bill won't perish with remorse at being qyclijKjgd. Contest starts at 2 o'clock. ^ ' . ' i>. SrS""' • r..: . & f Nope, Chollie wasn't there, but all the same those Green Bay Packers, that bunch who have been extremely fortunate all year, finally met more than their match when they bumped up against the Portsmouth Spartans and went down in a humiliating defeat, 19-0. And Portsmouth didn't use a single substitute! Something previously unheard of in professional circles and seldom in collegiate or high school games. The Packers meet the Bears at Chicago to decide second place and a possible tie for the league leadership if the Bears come out on top. In their two previous meetings this year the first ended in a tie and the second was won by the Packers 2-0 when a Bear kick missed its mark in the last minute of play. Mmhrm of the school board joined Co«ck Orr, Supt. Duker and Captain Bay Howard of the football team in attendance at the annual football banquet at Fox Lake high school where Jack Elder of Notre Dame fame was the speaker of the evening. Elder is now head of the Catholic Youth Organization in Chicago is doing some great work with Young America. Didtft get to see the basketball game at the high school Sunday afternoon and I guess a lot of other folks weren't there as well. The boys didn't have much time to advertise, but they'll let everyone know about the next contest and there'll be a much larger crowd. Too bad they dropped the opener, but the old saying, "poor beginning-, good ending," may hold true in their case. They deserve a lot of credit for trying to give McHenry some entertainment in times like this. x McHenry High's team looked mighty snappy against the Elgin B team last Saturday night while running up over forty points to Elgin's thirty-five. It s the first time in a long, long time «hat. a local high school squad has made more than ft point a minute andE maybe that is what the fans have been waiting for as they liav« been none too loyal in their support of the school teams in the past few seasons. They play St. Mary's, a crack squad this year, here tomorrow night and that'll be a good time to get acquainted with th« new edition. TO K'HXNRY PUUHDBALBR, THTJESDAY, ftftf. B, 1*32 ELGIN TOO MtTOH FOR J ^ I09# McHENRY FIVES * Pop Warner must figure that he is old enough to pay no attention to Horace Greeley's advice (not Henry Greeley, the prominent Democrat). He is coming east after spending ths greater part of the last decade coaching football at Stanford, but the ever present alumni now are becoming dissatisfied because Pop hasn't a winning team this year. He will most likely be succeeded by Ernie Nevers, the greatest football player ever coachrd by Warner, and one of the greatest in the history of the game. Until this year Nevers was a member of the Chicago Cardinals pro team. Huppy Smith won the high score for the week with 258, rolled in the( Forester league last Friday night This is the week that Ray McGef gives his prize, the second week of the month, so get the old ball working. Earl Monear has also put up a prize for bowlers under 161 average with Gene Nye now leading the race. Mentioning Nye brings to mind Prof. Nye's big improvement. The Grand Knight of the KC's rolled a 545 series last week and has had a 200 game in each of the last three weeks in competition. That goes to show what practice will do, as Prof, practices faithfully each week. ATTEND ATHLETIC BANQUET C. H. Duker, Coach Orr, Raymond Howard Jr., Dr. A. I. Froehlich, C. J. Reihansperger and E. E. Bassett attended an Athletic Banquet at the Grant Community high school, Fox Lake, Thursday evening. Jack Elder, a Notre Dame player a few years ago and Dan Spangler an Army player at the same time were speakers of the evening. McHenry's first independent basket* ball game of the season took placf last Sunday afternoon with the newly organized (but nameless) first tearil going down into defeat 36-27 in %" game that was none too gentle if per* sonal fouls mean anything. There were twenty-nine penalties inflicted by the two referees. Joe's Aces played the curtain raisec and also lost a tough game, 30 to discarding the new ten second rule. By means of the stalling game thereby made legal, the Elgin lads managed to hold a one-poir.t lead for the greater part of the last few minutes before getting a dribble in shot to put the game on ice. Joe was quite well satisfied with his team's work. Clarence hurried his sfrsts too much and was quite erratic, but will show up better after he has adjust his speed. The first team bumped up against a crew of former Elgin high school stars with Wimplebe?g, Bell and R. Young leading the way with some clever ball handling: They seemed to be just a Wit too much for a contest at this time of the year for the green McHenry five who aren't uked to working together as yet- They could not hit the basket with the ckltiue effectiveness but it wont be long now. Dale of Woodstock was imported for the center position: The crowd on hand got just as much kick out of the curtain raiser as they did from the feature. Joe's Aces p«t up a mighty good scrap aft all times and might have won with any breaks. "The score at the half was 20-15 in Elgin's favor, but Joe's gang crept up until they were withm one point and then Elgin started to stall, a procedure that would have been disallowed had not the rules been tampered wiih.

With the score 35-31 McHenry again forged ahead and baskets by Lockwood, with one by Whiting, put the game on ice. Dendick sank one for Elgin Just as the game ended to complete their evening's work. The new ten-second rule entered Into actual existence but one or two times, but it was evident that both sides were keeping it in mind as they delayed their attack not a minute. The zone defense was also used by both sides though neither defense was anywhere near impregnable as the scbre will indicate. Though of the opinion that his lads were Clicking a little over «their headshe is quite well satisfied with the attack, but is leary of the defensive ability of the team as a whole- Howard handled the back guard department but is slow and not especially adept at getting off his feet. Lockwood, the running guard, is not tall enough, but makes up for it with his ball handling and his shooting--if t'le other night is a .fair indication. Forty points should win any basketball game, but the boys cannot be expert - ed to keep up the pace they set against Elgin. • Freund showed up best on the lightweight squad with Vycital contributing a neat play from the feeder position. The lights need everything, experience, basket eyos, height and what have you, but they'll be coming along now most any time. See them now and then compare the team you see at the end of the season with this raw material. St. Mary's of Woodstock journeys here from the county-seat to do battle with the; hopeful Orrmen Friday night. Richmond nosed out the and White lads in an overtime „ in their only appearance so far tMft season and they are itching to get into the victory column!
