*>y EARL R. WALSH "Schmaltz" Miller is still lookin* tor entries in the big row boat race to be staged next Sunday ai tone of the feature fun and laugh provokers of Marine Day. Frank Gans, the defending Champ, is practicing daily for the race, but realizes he can't let up. The competition ,is tough. 'fljk '-- ^ Fof instcnce, there's Qeorge Barbian to consider. George all but won th'e race with ope oar last year. No need of mentioning that somebody sawed one ear half III two before the race. Give George at least one good oar and he may come paddllx\' right down to the finish line ahead of all contestants. .A new entry this year is A- P. WTony" Freund. Of course, most of Sony's, training has been on that big "duck" so we don't know how he performs in a row boat. course, these row Hboat athletes will not be permitted to indulge in any strong beverages before the race (training rules, you know), but "Schmaltz" has some attractive prizes ready for the winner. A wee drop will be on hand after the race for those Sho may need % bit of a stimulant. For medicinal purposes, you understand. Time is short, so get In tbuch with "Schmaltz" right away. There will be room for a few more contestants. After that Shamrock loss to Johnsburg last Sunday, we got to thinking how tough it is to lead this county league. Right now the Shamrocks have won 10, and lost IRly 3 games. That's a .769 percentage that should be tops in any league. In this leagie it Is good for third place. It's like winning a football championship. You can't be doing much losin'. Shamrock errors hurt last Sunday, but the boys who made the errors have had their good <ta?s when they won games for their %4m. This county league race is so tight that it . probably will be settled on the last day of the regular schedule when the fcpp four teams will be battling each other. It's a good league with good teams. McHenry wants a championship. So do nine other towns- The Shamrocks have had good .support from the fans so stay jth 'em. They have a good iance this .year to win the title. Hole-in-One ... The thrill of a lifetime came to H- R. Jackisch of Channel Lake, Antioch, Illinois, on Tuesday of this week when he shot a hole-inone on the 120-yard, 5th hole at Chapel Hill Country Club. The shot was witnessed by E. E. Mundt. .A card froni Howard Cairns tells % how nice and cool it is up in Quebec.' As if we didn't feel badly enough. Paul Albert is back from a trip through the West with plenty oif tall tales. He tells of one little restaurant in Shawnee, Wyoming that posts signs like the following: "Sample our chili ... It's mostly water and beans, but we eat it." "Coffee . 5c . weak but willing" "We pay the doctor's bills the $2.00 dinner." --Daily Pinups . rr Never mark the spot where yon bury the hatchet. When you are not up on things you are apt to be down on them. Little plusses of consideration will balance your book of life so it will never be in the red. Loss of incentive is slow poison to healthful living. Your heart will last as long as 3^ live, so put it first in all you Factual knowledge is in books, actual knowledge is in knowing what you want and going after it. Indifference is revenge with a vengeance. ANONYMOUS. i l l ! 1 " H - JUNIOR SPORTS JQHNSBUR6 TIGERS BEAT SHAMROCKS Shaky Infield Givw Miller Rough Time; Klapperich In |*orm There was joy in Johnsburg Sunday night after a recordsmashing crowd of baseball fans from all parts of the county witnessed the Johnsburg Tigers' 7 to 4 victory over the McHenry Shamrocks. , The very • first inning was enough to give one an idea of the eventual outcome. Willie Klapperich, who was quite a pitcher, set down the visiting Shamrocks in order in the first inning. Then came the tip-off. Shaky Start Si Meyers opened with k bouncer to third that Tom Bolger messed up. Howie Freund laid dow* a sacrifice bunt to McCracken at first base. Bud Miller went down !on a (Hose play, third to first. 1 Wally Smith's single to center scored Meyers. Katz, Johnsburg's new third baseman, kept up the aim toward third base and was safe on an error. George Jackson kept things moving with the first of his four hits. Wally Smith scored and was followed by Pabst when the throw in from center field got past third. Art Jackson fanned. Three runs scored. A Ted Pitzen gave the ball a ride j into the trees and crow'd in left (field for a ground-rule double to , lead off the second inning. Jerry : Larkin fumbled Klapperich's j grounder. Howie Freund's hit to left scored Pitzen and Johnsburg | led 4 to 0. j Jim Larkin Connects .The Shamrocks got back in the ball game in a big way in the third, featuring a base-clearing three-bagger by Jim Larkin. Bill Bolger beat out a hit to start the inning. Klapperich got Tom Bolger on strikes. "Sonny" Miller hit to right, putting runners on first and second. Conway beat out a roller along the third base line to load the bases. McCulla forced Bill Bolger at the plate. Then came Jim's big blow to score three runs. "Sonny" Miller got along nicely for three innings, but infield play tubbed up to plague him again in the sixth. Jerry Larkin handled Pitzen's grounder for the first out, but fumbled Klapperich's roller. Meyers then hit one to McCracken, who was moved from first to third ! base in the third inning, that proved too hot to handle. Howie Freund hit to right field this time to score Klapperich. George Jackson hit safely to iopen the seventh, moved up on brother Art's sacrifice and scored on Pitzen's second double. With two down in the eighth, the Shamrocks threatened, but only one run resulted. Conway ,and McCulla singled. Jim Larkin, who drove in all the McHenry runs, hit to left and went to second on the throw-in, Conway scoring and McCulla moving to third base. Howie Freund went back for Jerry Larkin's short fly to end the threat. s> Howie Freund and Bud Miller started the home half of the eighth with singles and moved up on Wally Smith's bunt. Murphy made a nice catch and prompt return on Pabst's fly to left. George Jackson's fourth hit scoi;ed Howie Kreund. Jackson attempted to I steal second and was trapped in a rundown, being called out for running out of the base paths. A slight argument followed, but the plate umpire ruled that the third out had been completed before i Bud Miller crossed the home plate. ! Klapperich issued his first walk of the game to Murphy in the ; ninth and .followed with a free ride to Bill Bolger. No scoring developed. , Sotei on the Gane Klapperich's effectiveness «u ' evidenced in the fact that h^ set jdown the batters 1-2-3 in six of I the nine innings.
