But, not today! Men and women in ill walks of life and endowor inure taken the game to heart. -IWas a time when a few of the boys would get together for a little outdoor bunion exercise -- and, incidentally, carry alone » moderate supply of fire-water to add to the m&riment. --I-- A few clubs in each bag would do Hi* trick. The knicker garb tended to bring oat the /bay*' is the old bunion click. * . But, time has brought many changes. Courses are improved. The baseball swing is out. Equipment is more complete. One time shelters are. growing into clubhouses. --I-- , Why! They even take baths after ^yound of golf! "'t -- 1-- Now, maybe you, think that's all right, but it has its drawbacks * , " We know a fellow who entered a Shower one day this week at the Woodstock Country Club and eame out a cripple. Yep. Our profound sympathy goes to George Sullivan, of "Put and Take" fame. Poor George must have slipped on a bar of soap and landed smack on his . . . (you'd never guess) . . . right elbow. Now, George is unable to got out his daily column--all on account of these new-fangled ideas like taking baths after a golf game! --a-- A great handicap, George, for a e«#umnist to lose the use of his right arm, but cheer up! We have heard that a greater calamity once happened in our city ... Alderman Buss lost his voice! ' • --'i-- • City Sights: "Two-Ton-Tony" Kafrls doing his road work down Riverside Drive--behind a baby buggy. Jerry Newman holding « baby on lite lap at the ball game last Sunday. 8omebody once asked . . . "What is so rare as a day in June?"

CUT ^ "Imagine that dope trying tcrscare away an old like DOT <THAMBERLIN. a false face!'* LOCAL NINE COMES FROM BEHIND TO TRIM WOODSTOCK ALEJfilTE LARKIN HURLS MATES TO 9 TO 0 VICTORY OVER GREENWOOD NINE , Our local ball team showed last tfanday that they have learned the art ©f coming from behind to win a ball game as they erased a 4 to 2 deficit against Woodstock and went on to win, 8 to 4. The game was the first of' a playoff schedule to determine league supremacy, a plan similar to the hockey play-offs in which s tail-end nine can rise to the occasion and make champions of themselves. As usual, Carl flopp improved as the game wore on, striking out the side in order in the last inning. He turned the same trick in the third inning with the power boys in the visiting lineup at bat. The visiting pitcher, Woods, flashed classy form, but with the discouragement of ragged play on the part of his mates coupled with solid smashes from McHenry bats, his lead dwindled away. Woods may also have felt the strain of being on the bale paths too often. He and Gordon each rapped out three hits while Hopp held the slugging Johnsons to no hits. Your box score will show that the . local . boys spread 17 hits over tjw Wilcox, If Jim Larkin hurled the Shamrocks to ® 9 to 0 victory over Greenwood Sunday on -the Greenwood diamond. Although several men reached base in the latter innings, some sparkling fielding by Harry Dowell preserved Jim's shutout. The longest hit of the day was Jerry Larkin's triple to start the second inning. Next Sunday the strong Elgin Red Sox will appear on the Shamrock diamond to do battle with the Irish Prairie Lads.

All we can say js there must fee dang little to read in those Eastern papers. * --I-- Correction: Father Neidert demanded a recount We shoula have said five instead of three in referring to the hair on his head last week. --I-- Isn't it peaceful since Eddie Matthews went travelling t --I- "Pa" Thennes, Art Krause and "Hoop" Schoewer join the chorus in praise of young Bob Kennedy, rookie third-sacker for the White SOxj --I-- The Kennedy arm is drawing much Attention in big league circles. He can draw a straight line from third to first with that ball. -- -- Don't look now -- but, isn't that "Zeke" Bonura on the Cub bench, He's the guy we were told the Sox should have kept. - I - ' . Those Brooklyn Dodgera are still the daffy team in baseball. After a rousing start this season,, they are fast sliding back to their old form. c --J-- We have a hunch that their pepperbox manager, "Lippy" Durocher, told those blokes to "get in there and fight" . . . and they thought he meant to qse their fists. --P-- ' ^' -- As long as the Dodfrers bfcwrtried all the spare outfielders in the country this year, we .see no reason why they shouldn't give Babe Herman another chance in the big time. He's been dodging fly balls long enough now so he shouldn't get hurt Hie summer seems sltft now that the high school football players have starred talk of the coming season. Athletic interest has made a big change in school life. Was a time when boys started about this time of year to wish the schoolhouse would burn down.

Cecil McGill vs. Bad Boy Brown. Two hundred and thirty-seven pound Marshall George, the Boston battering ram of wrestling and conqueror of such top-flight heavyweights as Danno O'Mahoney, Yvon Robert, and all six of the Dusek brothers, will get the bis: chance of his middlewest title campaign Friday night in Peg's Grayslake Arena when he goes up against Lake county's own Jim McMillen. Former Lumberjack George is one of the super-heavyweights of the sport, standing well over six feet in height and tipping the beams at more than 15 pounds over McMillen's weight. He started wrestling professionally five years ago in Portland, Oregon, while working as a lumberjack in the great forests of the northwest. When he came east seeking his fortune in sports he caught the eye of Paul Bowser, prominent in eastern wrestling circles, who helped train him for his present career. Bowser is expected to sit at the ringside at the lake arena Friday night to watch his protege In action against McMillen. A Handsome "Raasler"! In the semi-windup match handsome Juan Humberto who divides his time between rough riding on Hollywood movie lots in western screen thrillers, and wrestling against some of the best heavyweights in the sport, goes up against Bert Rubi, former Hungarian Olympic star. In the other matches Bad Boy Brown returns to Lake county for the first time in three years to take on Cecil McGill of Texas, while Walter Palmer, former light - heavyweight amateur state champion .mixes with new-comer Jimmy Landis.

Don't be afraid to tilt the camera when the subject Is suited to an "angle shot." • ' . - Iron From Sani^ • . 7- Iron is being made from sand in a machine just introduced into Italy. ••ijOLD your camera lever* -- that'a what the Instruction books say But It all depends on what you're shooting, and in some shots you' get a more interesting effect if the camera Is pointed up or down. When you're taking a picture of your house, the camera should always be perfectly level. That also bolds true for other subjects with . Vertical lines, such as tall trees-- .provided you want the vertical lines <o appear as you see th*m. With the camera tilted up, these lines will slope toward each other; £nd your house, for example, will appear smaller at the top. There's a very simple reason for this. When the camera is tilted, the top of the house is farther from the lens than the foundation. And, SB you know, anything at a greater distance from the camera will apf> ear smaller in the picture. ' However, in many cases, the subject calls for a tilted camera. Consider the picture of the little gir! On the balcony, above. This is just the way the balcony would appear from the front yard or walk. Therefore this picture--taken with the camera tilted up--gives the most natural effect. In the same way. a picture of a person or group In the front yard, 'taken from the balcony, would bey very effective -- especially If you stood back In the doorway and included a small part of the balcony railing. That would show how and where the picture was snapped. These are more or less "normal" viewpoints, but often an unusual viewpoint gives an interesting effect. Place your camera near ground level and tilt it up. to take H picture of a golfer or tennir player--and the effect is more dramatic. This is known as a "worm's eye" view. "Bird's eye" views, with the camera quite high and tilted down, are also good for many subjects. 1 Experiment with camera angles. Your view Under will show you. in each case, what you can get. Always make the viewpoint suit the subject--and you'll get lively, eyecatching. effective pictures.
