In due tbne Pat returned, and presently hove in sight bearing the lime-decorated 'Mat. "What's the trouble, Pat?" asked «He, trying to appear indifferent.

The local Palace Recreation men's bowling team won three games from the famous Pabst Blue Ribbon girls last Saturday night as a large crowd witnessed some of the classiest rolling of the year. Although each bowler was out for all the pins possible, the match was packed with fun and good-natured ribbing. Bruno Grimelli paced the men with a 604 series and was the target of many blasts such as, "Come on Arthritis!" Steffes had high game for the match, a 235 in the third game. The last game brought out both spirited action and top scores. Imagine getting beat with 967 pins! That's what happened to the girls as the men piled up the handsome total of 1011. Kay DeBonis was the life of the party, but didn't let that keep her from bowling the steadiest series of the evening. Local fans pulled hard for Mary Jane Hubert, Waukegan girl, ss she nose-dived to. 115 in the second game from a 20? start. Mary Jane came back with 181 pins in the third gam* to please the crowd. The match was enjoyed by the large crowd of bowling enthusiasts who will be anxious to see the Blue Ribbon girls return. The girls are listed in McHenry sport records not only as good bowlers, but "good fellows" as well. The Foresters played their last game of the season Sunday evening and beat the North Shore Rex 51 - 38. The score at the half stood 20 -19 "in the local's favor. All the men on the team played and scored. The home team boys wound up with a good record, after losing the first four games. We ended up with ten wins and nine losses. The lights won a close defensive game by a score of 16 to 16. The score at the half was 5 to 1 in our favor. All the men saw action. The lights had a very successful season. After losing the first two games they ended up with a record of sixteen wins and three defeats. In behalf of the team and the C. O. F., I want to thank everyone in helping us make this season a success. We tried to give our best and show everyone a full evening's entertainment. FRED J. MEYER.

M VIRGINIA STRATTON xn. dosing^n ICS FOLLIES OF '41 OPENING MARCH 24 IN THE CHICAGO ARENA ^g^mid^-night March 28 in Minneapolis, Shipstad and Johnson^ Ice Follies of 1941 will make a mad dash for Chicago via their special train for their openings at the Chicago Arena March 24. Primary reason for the close scheduling lies in the fact that Arena officials knew that they must have a return engagement of Ice Follies this season in order to satisfy the thousands 9f people who called the Chicago ice rink during the winter demanding a repeat run. The dates March 24 through April 6 were the only ones available for Chicago, and, anxious to satisfy as many people as possible, the Arena mangement finally prevailed on Messrs. Shipstad and Johnson to open on the twentyfourth. "Who's Who" Skaters lee Follies of 1941 is still the world's greatest musical revue on ice, containing in its cast of seventy practically all of the great names in show skating. Glancing through the list of the show's headliners, Bess Ehrhardt, Evelyn Chandler, Shipstad and Johnson, Roy Shipstad, Heinie Brock, Frick and Fraclc, Osbourn Colson and Fran Claudet, Papez and Zwack is like reading a "Who's Who on Ice." Tickets for all performances are on sale at the Arena box office, 400 East Erie Street and The Hub, corner State and Jackson, Chicago. Sport fans of Lake County are due for an evening of thrills Friday night, ' March 21, when eight of the outstand- ! ing heavyweight wrestlers in the midi dlewest gather in Waukegan to battle for gold and glory in the high school gym on the all-star professional card sponsored by the Moose Lodge. The main event of the evening pits the remarkable Ruffy Silverstein undefeated in more than eleven years of amateur and professional wrestling, against lithe, powerful Karol Krauser, champion of all Poland and one of the foremost contenders for world championship honors. Krauser, who is considered the acme of wrestling perfection, holds victories over practically every important heavyweight in the sport today, and is expected to give diminutive Ruffy the acid test of his entire career. Semi-windup: Old Shikina. (Jap jttjitsu expert) vs. Bert Rubi. Supporting matches: Tiny Abie Coleman vs. "Darling" Dizzy Davis.

Among those being Mrs. P. Koob, Mr. and Mrs. J. Wrublewski, Mr. and Mrs. C. Vachet, Mrs. L. Krieger, Mrs. Mae Budil, Mrs. Ted' Budil and Ted Jr., Teddy Jr. being one of his dad's staunchest rooters. The wonfen were interested in the deliveries of the different Pabst bowlers, particularly in the flying tackle Petalka uses on the pins, and the hefty swing used by Mary Jane Hubert, who wasn't up to her regualr form. The Chicago Pabst Blue Ribbon men's team bowled at Grayslake Saturday night and afterwards some of the members came to the Palace and were members of the party, including Mr. and Mrs. Hubert, of Waukegan, parents of Mary Jane, Kay DeBonis, Herb Freitag, Edna Bourbon of Chicago, Joe Williams of Chicago and Mr. find Mrs. Vachet, who stayed to enjoy the congenial atmosphere o! Mike Budler's. The Vogue Pabst Blue Ribbons, of Lily Lake, won their match at Schaefer's Sunday afternoon against the Johnny Meyer's Tavern team of Harvard, 865 - 840 - $62 -- 2567 to 844 - 845-840 -- 2529, but it was a nipand- tuck affair, all three games being decided in the tenth frame. They have been rematched for Sunday afternoon, March 30, at Harvard. The way Bernie Peschke mows 'em down in the Wednesday night club, we're still wondering who gave him the forty pin handicap. Tom Klabough's nifty 224 was enough wood to take the third pot game. The men were at least consistent Wednesday night: Budil 554, Wrublewski 553, Krieger 555, .Vaghet Koob 646. ^ The way the women are hflprwtng we expect to see a flock of 200's marked up anytime now.

PRICE CHICAGO, " 111./ March 17--Milk producers In the Chicago marketing area will receive a blended price of $1.73 per hundredweight, 3.5% butterj fat test, 70-mile zone, for ttl milk de- ^ livered February 1-28, 1941, both dates inclusive, it is announced by A. W. Colebank, acting federal milk market administrator. This is the same as the blended price for Janizary 1941 deliveries. It is the first time since the order was inaugurated, September 1, 1939, that the price has been the same for two successive months. It is three cents per hundredweight higher than the blended price for February 1940 deliveries. While class prices for February deliveries were slightly less than those for January deliveries. This decline was somewhat offset by a reduction in total production, »4he • decrease amounting to slightly more than 9 million pounds. However there were three fewer delivery and production days in February and the daily average deliveries were higher than in j January 1941 or in February 1940. Thus, the upward surge in production, which sent the blended price into a sharp decline in January, is still nu - cbecked. The computation of the blended price is b&eed on the prices which handlers pay for their supplies of milk in the four classes of utilization, these prices for February deliveries being $1,952 per hundredweight in class I, $1,652 in class II, $1,443 in class III and $1,263 in class IV. Class prices in turn are based on the Chicago 92-score butter and Plymouth, Wisconsin cheese, markets. The total amount of milk reported by handlers In February computations was 175,223,263 pounds as compared with 184,317,900 pounds in January 1941 and 159.505,362 in February 1940. The February poundage represents 42.89% utilization in class I, 31.44 per cent in clasB II, 5.36 per cent in class III and'20.31 per cent in class IV; the class IV utilisation being higher and the utilization in the other three classes being lower than in January, 1941. The average dally pounds delivered in February amounted to 6,257,974 as compared with 5,945,579 in January 1941 and 5,500,185 in February 1940. The average February daily deliveries being 312,235 pounds higher than in January 1941 and 707,789 higher than February 1940. The total dollars to be paid to producers for February deliveries amount to $3,031,362.45 for 175,223,1*3 pounds as compared with $3488,699.67 for 184,317,900 pounds in January 1941 and $ 2 , 7 7 1 , 5 9 1 . 1 5 f o r pounds in February 1940.

Yet our* acquaintance with these strange substances is so new that important discoveries about them are being made daily. * ~ How many vitamins are there? No one knova. A few yeaca ago it was thought that there were only six; now a dozen or more an known and vitamin research will undoubtedly find others in the future. The first in^portant step was the realization that certain diseases were caused by Unbalanced diets. The second step was the discovery that milk and certain other foods contained substances which W<gr« indispensable to life. . * * Not long ago many people referred to vitamins as a 44fad." Skeptics ridiculed them as mysterious, fanciful substances. Today we know better. Science has shown that most of them are definite chemical CQgipounds which may be prepared in pure form.
