Jim Frisby came in too late for last week and we <have since been notified that Jim has been moved to Fort Sheridan. Jim gets around. Dear Earl: Writing a short letter hi order that I^inay once more express my appreciation for the Plaindealer. Although I was only in Texas two weeks I received one copy down there. When our group reported back to Fort Sheridan from furlough the men with 85 or more points were discharged and the rest of us were sent to the Redistribution Station at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. We were processed there and re-assigned. I was sent here to Camp Ellis and assigned to the cadre of the company I am in. Our records were brought up to date at Fort Sam Houston, and since a battle star was authoriped for the Ardennes or Belgian Bulge as it is more often called, I recjgved that; which when added to the ones for Normandy, France and Germany boosts my point total around the eighty mark. 1 You may have my present address by the time you get this but just to be sure I will enclose it here. Best regards to all, JIM FRISBY. TOTALS - Score by innings: McHenry 015 4(12)0 301--26 Hebron 001 0 1 0 006-- 8 o-base hits--E. Kottke. Threebase hits--Kuecker, 3} J. Wagner. Home runs -- H.

Order your rubber stamps at the The Plaindealer. In correction with the "Canada" election reported last week we have a poem concocted by the Ex-Mayor. We might add that the newly elected Mayor drew a large number of votes on a promise of putting on -a guinea hen dinner. It's all in fun so hereMt is: We live in a place That was quiet and serene - Until our near neighbors Tferned nasty and mean. - . Now, we had a puppy That sometimes would bark But only in tKe daytimes-- ^ _ Or after dark Maybe this dog ' Was a thorn in their side But if they'd told us. • • ^ We'd have smothered our pride We'd have ahot the dog And got rid of him quite, So these miserable neighbors Could sleep at night. But never a word Did they say to us To other neighbors Our poor dog they'd cuss. So this is what » Our neighbors thought up Just to get square On account of the pup: It is hard to describe this - In. so many words, ~r - -- But they raised a flock,' Of guinea hen birds. r They turned them loose ™ To roam the earth, ffcaa * -A While they sat at their "windows And giggled with mirth. \ The guinea hens bark. And they squeak, And they squawk. They run And they fly, They stand, " J . • And1 they walk.' They chatter and chitter And sign and laugh Make a noise like a cross Between a cat and a calf. They fly in our windows And up on the table. Jump out of the door And up on the gables They chase all the chickens Right into their houses Then they sit down And pick at their louses. They chase all the children And grown-ups .too, Often we wonder Just what well do ,Shall we declare war On this menace to men,' And call it the War Of Man against Hen-? ~^ : Or should we battle, -- 5 The owners of same, And before other people^ Put them to shame? Wvj'll fight the battle " On "Canadian" soil And put on our biggest Kettle to boil. All of the birds that We capture, well kMp, tiT-.H Hear even a peep. - We won't need points 's for our meat for a year ' ' _ And tho there's some people Who'll think it is queer We'll eat guinea hen c» JFor breakfast and dinner, So judge for yourself* Who you think, wilj~.be the winner. Now this is the moral Of cur little poem < - - If you must have guinea hens, Keep them to home. . . " Just clip their wings ---- So they cannot roam Build a 40-ft. fence And trim their nails. Sandpaper their feet / And cut off their s tails. / Pull out ttheir torigueif So they cannot holler'. And then chain them up With an iron ring collar. If you like to have them : Hanging around Hang them up . • Four feet from the ground. Then call in the neighbors all to "see Watch them clap their hands with glee For these guinea hens 4lave ruined many a night, And to see them "strung up ; Would be a beautiful sight. By R. J.

The Shamrocks had a lot of batting practice at Hebron last Sunday and plan to swing hard eome next Sunday. 6 ~ Up at Johnsburg there will be ancther great b&ttle. Woodstock and Johnsbarg will fight it out for the A Different Boom The new sporting boom, now getting under way, is entirely different from the boom that followed the First World war. That was the boom and the era- of stars--known as the Golden Age of sport. This new boom will be all different. In the first place, it will have far more contestants through the army and navy sporting program. In the second place, it will all outclass those days in the matter of public interest and public attendance. For us this has been a far rougher and more devastating war than the first world upheaval knew. Then we went to war in April, 1917, and we were through in November, 1918. That was only a sprint by comparison. But this war began in December, 1941, and it is still going full blast. The casualty list of this war will triple the casualty list of the number one affair. y The tremendous sports program which army and navy are working on Is dead sure to bring In a star crop of baseball players, football players and boxers from the younger set. "These army and navy ball players will have the advantage of good training and fit condition," Carl Hubbell says. "That can make a big difference. Also there ought to be enough to go around so that all of us can improve." Dave Ferriss and A1 Benton have proved Hubbell's slant. Coaches Greasy Neale and Steve Owen feel the same way about it in regard to football. So do the college coaches who expect to get their share of these veterans. - Commissioner Chandler has promised to give thousands of extra kids a chance to play baseball who km AIM dial eat before thvtmgfc lack of playing space. It has already been proven clearly that this country needs more players than it needs extra spectators. This idea may not strike every promoter as a happy thought, but It will be that way in the future. In the meanwhile the first rush of the boom is already here. The ball parks are proving it. Major Test Case Hank Greenberg will be 33 years old on January 1, 1946. He has been but of baseball action four seasons and before he moved into war service he had known 10 years of big league service. From now on Tiger Hank's play will be followed with greater interest than the performance of any other player now in baseball. This not only includes every baseball fan, but also every veteran service athlete who hopes to return to some form of sport. Joe Louis and Billy Conn are notable examples. So are msfriy other boxers--many other ball players -- and many; other football stars. Greenberg at least will give us part of.the answer as to what four years of athletic inaction will do. I talked with the tall captain just before he was given his army release. Weighing 195 pounds, he looked fit for anything. "I only wish I knew the answer," he said, "but I believe I have at least two more seasons left in my system. It will take a little time to get going again, to get my eye on the ball. I hope not too long. But I am in good shape physically, although my legs will need some seasoning. It will be good to get back in, time, to have at least a chance to pick up the old game. Another j year would have been too late." . j .. 1 | High Chair Slipcovers If baby has grown to high chair stage, use. eome washable slipcovers for his chair pad to simplify, the cleaning up job if there is a mishap at feeding time.
