This comes as good news at a time when the uncertainty of athletics keeps creeping into the picture. Coach McCracken has a large turnout of boys who are battling for a place in the lineup. However, his pitching staff is on the uncertain side. Art Jackson, Bob Frett, Norman Knaack and Dick Rosing are the prospective twirlers, but none have had too much experience in this department. The catching will be well taken eare of by a couple of husky boys, Crouch and McKim. Crouch has had an advantage in experience, but McKim shows signs of developing fast. On Friday afternoon of this week Luke Zurich will appear on the local diamond (near Anderson's), at 4 o'clock. Local fans are urged to turn oat to watch these young fellows in action.

A COMPLETE SUPPLY OK HARDWARE NICKELS' Hardware Phone 2 : West McHenry Remember to buy War Bonds and Stamps no retailer may sell any item below its regular point value. Two methods are set up for determining the reduction in money price for these foods sold at lower point values. They are: 1. No reduction in point value may be made unless the money price of the food has been reduced at least 25 pr cent below its ceiling price established by the OPA. 2. The food may not be reduced more than 25 per cent below the regular point value unless the money price is cut below its ceiling price in the same proportion. However, the money price need not be reduced in any case more than 50 per cent below its ceiling price. Retailers must also post, prominently, notices showing the item and the point value at which he intends to sell it; the fact that he is selling the item at less than regular point value to prevent spoilage; the ceiling price of the item and the reduced money price he asks for it. Retailers selling foods under regular point values must report in writing to their war price and rationing boards within twenty-four hours after they begin such sales, setting forth the particular reasons why the food is being transferred at less than regular point values, and the quantity and type of food involved. Within four days after beginning to transfer the food, he must make a further report in writing to the board showing the types and quantity of food sold at the lower point values, and the total point value of the food so transferred. In addition, he also must certify that he reduced the money price of the food in the way required. McHenry Lumber, 2 -- Bast's Variety, 1. E. Miller, 413; H. Immekus, 402; M. Budil, 209--492.

Before going to the gym, Miss Larkin checked with each girl to see if her required number of badges have been earned for this year. When we went to the gym, we formed the horseshoe and had the Color Guard ceremony. We gave the salute, the promise, and sang "The Star Spangled Banner." The Color Guard was dismissed, and we lined up for the choosing of teams. Loretta Larson and Marianne Rogers chose teams for kick baseball. We played four innings, and then it was time to go home. While we were playing, Mr. Mclntyre came in to give some of the Scouts their final tests in artificial respiration. Those were the last tests left to complete the requirements for Junior First Aid.

Bowes. Published without the fanfare of a best seller, "The Road To Victory" by Archbishop Francis J. Spellman has become one of the most popular and widely distributed books of the current season. It has been acclaimed as one of the most definite contributions to victory literature. To the word "Victory" His Excellency gives a wider and deeper interpretation, for his thought demands not only a victory of arms on land, in the air and on the sea, but more so a victory that will vindicate American ideals by being a victory in peace as well as in war. Besides the original edition which was published by Charles Scribners & Sons," almost 300,000 copies of "The Road To Victory" have been printed. 220 one-year-old pheasants in DeKalb county, many of them in the Sycamore- Genoa area.
