Siipj' Bill Sutton's 251 was high for the at the Palace and he took home the prize for his ability to bowl. They tell me he wasn't as hot this week but that was to be expected. A special prize donated by the IGA store is on tap for this week's high. The Knights of Columbus bowling •quad held their shindig for the first half of their season Tuesday night at Weber's hall. The Bolger and Frett teams 'Were stuck for the feed and Stillings and Conways made the most of the free occasion. • - . • Justen *s Furniture five went wiO. against Spring Grove in their second match of the year and rolled up an advantage of 240 pins, due chiefly to some nice pin smashing by Geo. P. Freund alid Ed. Smith. George was plenty hot that night and toppled the maples for 602 count while Ed. had 622 with a pair of 221 games. Charlie Freund led the losers with a 513 series despite the presence 'of Gus Freund who replaced the absent Ed. Freund but was way off stride, totalling but 484. The first match between these two teams found a difference of but twelve pins. It was rolled -W^jkjs..,ag->; - ^7*' With Ed Smith and George Freund going hot the Spring Grove hoys never had a chance against the Justen JPurnit'ire bowlers. And that despite the fact that George Justen was playing the perfect host by turning in a mighty low series. SPRING GROVE-- A1 B. Brit* May. B. W atts .... C. Freunrf A.

Babe Didrickson is playing at the Palace in the city this week, and as a result the papers are running more publicity about her than usual and that's going some. Her latest accomplishment seems to be ping pong. Perhaps that is why Math Laures is practicing up on the intricate game--^ looking for a chance to play the Babe. - 827 796 818--42441 JUSTEN'S FURNITURE-- The Married Men's Athletic"** club sent a volleyball team to Fox Lake last week where they went down in defeat before a similar team from that village. The games were closely contested with the first two being divided but the rubber game got away and the MM AC were forced to accept defeat. But even in defeat they had a good •time Mid are willing to try it again. G, Justen A. Justen ...... G. P. Freund G. Weber Ed.

The work is being done in the office- of G. L. Tryon, county surveyor. When completed the blue prints will be turned over to Ccmnty Clerk Raymond D. Woods. This work is being done under a new law passed by the general assembly two years ago. The bill was introduced by Rep. William M. Carroll of Woodstock. |* „ The plan is an idea of William R. Cairns, prominent Woodstock Legionnaire, who has served as graves registration chairman of the county and district and also as a member of the state L^Jnon committee. ' When completed this plan will furnish the county with a, complete record of every cemetery in the county. Every lot will be charted and the grave of every, person marked in the such a manner the locati6n can be obtained by inquiring of county clerk. The idea originated from registration work in the Legion, fa an effort to locate and mark the graves of war dead, Cairns decided on the plan to secure blue prints of all cemeteries. This resulted in ft statewide movement by the America^ Legion and later In the passing of the bill in the general assembly to have the work aone under the supervision of the state. In making a tour of the county to secure plats and blue prints, Cairat. and County Supervisor Tryon found some unusual plats and prints. Many of these aTe private property, while others belong to churches and various organizations. Many of the plats and prints are many years old -and made in an unusual manner. The plats and prints are beihg loaned for a short period so duplicate copies can be obtained.; ' , : , •. -v • HUHTLEY NIPS MCHS m 25-23 THEIUAR SMITHS-- F. Unti Sutton ...........

The score was rather even at the end of the half, but the Seniors broke loose with a barrage in the last helf that completely submerged their opponents. The game went off without even a hair pulling match but even so the fans would like to see more of the girls in action. WINKELS^ Frett ................ A. Buch J. Schmitt .......

FOUR-- ... 195 180 916--2643 Uj»4attnted by the reports that Huntley was developing into one -of the niost feared teams in the county, the local high school basketeers played them to a standstill last Friday night - and managed to give -them a scare that will not soon be forgotten, before going to defeat by the mighty close score of 25 to 23, Ewert's basket with five seconds to go furnishing Huntley with the decision. McHenry outscored Flancher's men from the field, but an inability to click on the penalty shots cost the game, eleven out of sixteen of the gifts being wasted- This se^ms to be an old weakness with MCHS teams and has cost many a game in the past, but Coach Orr is determined that it won't cost any more and is drilling the lads extra .heavy in this department this week in preparation for the retun game with Fox'Lake this week. This will be a conference game. With three minutes to go Kinsala's basket put McHenry ahead after Huntley had led, 17 to 12, shortly after the half, which had ended with the visitors leading 16rl0. Howard fouled Anderson and that tied the score at 20 all. Then Howard missed a free throw, but Boncosky made good on his try to put Huntley i»head. Howard then was fouled by Swanson and tied the score at 21 ail. Whiting sahk a basket to equalize Anderson's effort and the score was still tied. But Ewert, sweet center for the Huntley team and a main cog in its smooth working machine, tipped one in with but five seconds to go. It was a heart breaker to lose after stagirg such a great comeback" in the second half, but Coach Orr is satisfied that he has his team coming and from now on it behooves all teams to beware when facing McHenry. The defeat is easily traced to the free throwing as Huntley made nine out of eleven5 while McHenry made but five out of sixteen The McHenry lights stepped back into the win column after a long absence by taking the remnants of a Huntley squad that was ruined by ineligibility. McHenry got off to an early lead and walked off with a 21-11 victory, Huntley scoring but two fiekj goals, one in each half HUNTLEY, 25-- Anderson, f .................. Swanson, f ...
