We know yoall like them: Wo* SB Angler la Dentist Te Fiah Mrs. Wanda Pries, fishing at St. Lucie Inlet the other day, hooked a whopper sheepshead and was lifting it into the boat when it fell off. Impaled on the point of her hook was one of the fish's molars (yep, sheepshead have molar*) afld the extracted tooth had a cavity in it. "That fish owes me $6," she told The News. Mr. and Mrs. Pries, Who came here from McHenry, JUL* are building at Port Sewali At 46 miles per hour, sing-- "Highways Are Happy Ways." At 65 miles, sing--• J "I'm But a Stranger Hare, Heaven Is My Home." At 65 miles, sing-- "Nearer, My God To Thee." . At 76 miles, sing-- - * "When the Roll Is Called U» Yonder 111 Be There." At 86 miles, sing-- "Lord, I'm Coming Home." Lots of fishing around here, but have heard \)f only one swimmer. Of course, this one didn't have time to put on his bathing suit. It seems that Math Niesen went out on his oier, reached for his boat, but the blpmed tub- drifted away from him. Our swan diver has lived on the banks of the Fox River for many years, but reports have it that this was the first time he was ever completely submerged in the stream.

The Jerseyite, half asleep, batted around wildly with a pillow until the bewildered fowls found their way out. Next day the Jerseyite told his host: "I'm going to spend all my1 vacations up here. Had a fine sleep." "That ao?" said the pleased landtafrd. ^ ' "Yea, air," the Jerseyite marvelled. "Just saw three mosquitoes all night, and they were little ones." A ONE WAT ROAD nith a throw-in and relay following Ted PHsen'a hit into right field. The last, hopes of the McHenry contingent fell with Dick Conway as he fell flat and was tagged out after rounding third on Jim Larkin's hit in the ninth. This story has been building up to the inevitable outcome so here's the story of the final blow. Howie Freund led off the ninth for the home team and chased McCracken back for a fly hall.
