County League Standings W In the second game of Sunday's double-header program, the McHenry Merchants travelled to to Johnsburg and lost a .wellplayed baseball game by a score of 4 to 2. The Merchants scored their runs in the first inning when Hank Britz led off with a walk, advanced on Lay's sacrifice and scored on Nye's drive to right field that Meyers came in on fast but couldn't hold. Nye moved to third on Rosing's single and scored on fly ball to center by Howard Knox. Back c^me the Tigers in their half of the first to tie up the ball game. Hitler and Bud Meyers walked.

Katz slapped a hit to left, scoring George Jackson, but Art Jackson was thrown out attempting to reach third. Pitchers' Buttle Klapperich and- Madson settled down fo a real pitchers' battle until the spell broke in the Tiger half of the eighth. A hit by "Tony" Freund, sacrifice hit by Art Jackson, hit by Katz and fly ball to center by King accounted for two runs. Peisert and Nye sparked in the McHenry infield, but it was Dick Rosing who got the big hand of the day when he made a diving, rolling catch of George Jackson's liner in the third inning. The Merchants missed one golden scoring opportunity in the second when George Jackson picked Olsen off first. A walk and hit followed. Klapperich was in form, pitching another creditable game. Madson proved to be a tough competitor, finishing attar suffering a hand injury that delayed the game in the eighth. Johnsburg Hiller. 2B E. Meyers, RF B. Meyers, SS J. Freund, 3B G. Jackson,.C ...

SWAIPS MARENGO FOR CHAMPIONSHIP The McHenry Legion nine won the county championship at rengo last Sunday afternoon, drubbing the Marengo entry 16 to 1 Don Freund, ace hurler for the local nine, burled a 2-hitter to add to a:i impressive record for the ,season. Don has allowed only 10 ijhits in four games, losing a 1-hit game to Barrington (2 to 0) for tils only loss. Andreas led a 13-hit attack at Marengo as the entire lineup entered in the scoring picture. There is no doubt that some coming stars are gaining experience on this team. John Knox is One who has shown ability both hs a catcher and hitter. Butler is another player who should come up fast. Bob McCulla handles first base in nice styfe. Others say to watch Andreas. It appears tnat you can go right down the lineup and find boys who will be heard from on .the older teams ere Jong. Manager Tony Freund states that the various county champs will start their play-offs next Sunday, starting the rough road toward the state championship. Peter Olesen was credited with a no-hit game at Hebron last week but lost to McHenry, 5 to 3.

Need robber stamps T Order au The PjAtndeftler. George Jackson, who has been a shortstop and catcher for the Johnsburg Tigers this year, turned pitcher last Sunday and hurled a brilliant 5-hit game at Carpenterville, only to lose 3 to 1. Johnsburg scored in the second Inning when Si Meyers cracked a double. Si was thrown out from short to third and Art Jackson waa safe on a fielder's choioe. Jim Freund's two-bagger scored Jackson. Carpentersvllle tied the score in the third when Thomas hit for two bases and moved to third on a sacrifice by Waschow. Kock's hit scored Thomas. This same trio came through in the seventh to score 2 runs, although it might be fair to report that the damaging double off Jackson was not of the lusty type. Johnsburg AB Hiller, 2B 3 N.

When the firing was over, the Shamrocks had won by a score of 8 to 1. While there seemed little <)oubt of the outcome as the game progressed, all eyes were centered on Hugh Murphy with a no-hit game going into the sixth Inning. With one out and Rosing on first with a free pass, Howard Knot aent a slow roller between the pitcher's mound and first base, Murphy raced over, then decided to let the ball go to one of the other (laid ere. By the time Conway could gat in on the hall, Knox was acroas with a hit to hia credit Murphy then walked Peisert to load tike bases. Rosing scored on a low pitch that rolled to the screen %nd Merchant follower* saw a My of sunshine. Murphy steadied at thia point to strike out the ne£t two batters. The official scorer records a second hit off Murphy in the seventh when Bob Knox sent a grounder along the third base lina that Murphy fielded and threw to first base. That was all the hitting off Murphy as he struck out 18 batters and missed a no-hitter by a narrow margin in a maaterful piece of mound work. Agase Wild Starting for the Merchants was Agaae, a southpaw hurler from the University of Illinois nine. Agaae looked like a fine pitcher in spots, but lack of control and difficulty on the part of his catcher, R. Peterson, in holding his slants proved costly. The Merchant battery got off to confusing start In the first innitig when Conway's pop fly in front of the plate fell for a hit. McCulla wag hit by a pitched ball* and both runners scored 09 Harry Stilllng's hit to center field. Wildness was Agase's downfall In the fourth when he walked G. Larkin and N. Freund, then kit Paul Freund with a pitch. All three scored, Larkin on a paased ball and the Freund boys on t hit by Mnrphf. Gerry Larkin doubled along the teft field line In the sltth, but a. «<«. scoring was avdided when Howard' "Ruffy" Silversteln, one of the top wrestling stars for Round Lake wreatling, and Farmer Don Marlin, of Niles, Michigan, are paired in the sixty minute main event of Fred Kohler'a nuAt show next Friday night in the Lake Cou'aty Stadium In Round Lake, 111. The match is to a two out of three fall verdict with a sixty minute time limit Farmer Don Marlin Is classed with the most colorful of all wrestlers. The Niles, Mich., grappler started hia career in the backwoods of Michigan in carnivals. He started wrestling barefooted and wearing sawed off overalls. This style of attire has never been changed by Marlin. Another peculiarity of ihe Michigan athlete is his scuffling style. Opponents of Marlin have become infuriated witfc Don's; scuffling, but none have been able to do anything about it. Laat year Marlin suffered a fractured leg In a match in Cleveland. He was laid, up for months. However, Marlin Is back in peak shape and continues his campaign for heavyweight wrestling honors with » devas tating effect. In another star match on the show, a tag bout, Tony Ollvae, of Mexico qnd Gypsy Joe of the northwest are paired against Jack Carter, bf New Zealand and Billy HickBon, of Knoxvilie, Tehn. Gypsy Joe will be accompanied to the ringside by his wife who always sits in the first row and coaches her husband with secret code signals. Hlckson recently arrived in the middlewest and has put new pep into the game. Olivas, teamed with Gypsy Joe is an aggressive and talented wrestler. Joe Gordon and Juan Hernandez, the letter from Mexico are in the opening stanza.

Wisconsin Fish Catch The value of the commercial fish catch in Wisconsin waters of the Great Lakes in 1MB was about $2,- 000,000, a million dollars less than it was in each of the three years prior to 1946, records of the conservation department show. The drop in value reflects a smaller fi»h catch and lower prices. The fish catch was valued st *2,000,000 In 1948, $2,800,000 in 1947 and $2.- 800.000 in 1040. Spray for Fltea Lindane was recommended lor use by U8DA scientists Im the first time lsst summer as a residual spray against flies In term dairy baras and milk plants. Wisconsin has more than 8,000 lakes, all of them promising improved fishing if their individual problems ean he . met, and the conservation department is making a rpugh. diagnosis of these waters at the rate of about a hundred a year as a basis of factual management Fish stocking continues to be an important device of fish management Year "Lot's take an old fashioned wale" is H good suggestion for getting out and enjoying spring with the youngsters. As you walk, teach the children how to "stretch" their eyes--and their ears -- so they get the full benefit of nature. You'll see all kinds of birds, leaves, flowers, and insects when you "stretch" your •yes. And you'll hear bird calls, the wind, and many other wood's noises as you "stretch" your ears. Children who learn to-enjoy the outdoors will have a ready source of many hours of entertainment aa they grow un. you expect ma to believe that you eame straight home from the office?"

The Main Question The professor was delivering the final lecture of the term. He dwelt with much emphasis on the fact that e*ch student should devote all the intervening time preparing for .the final examinations. "The examination papers are now in the hands of the printer. Are there any questions to be asked?" Silence prevailed. Suddenly a voice from the rear inquired: "Who is the printer?" Too Simple "Derlktg, will you be my wife?" "Witt you always lot me do Just what I like?" "Certainly." "Can Mother live with us?" "Of course, dear." "Will you give up the club and always give me money when I ask for it?"

Every section of the nation has a different way of preparing the many varieties of dried beansnavy or pea, red kidney, great northern, yellow eye, pinto and lima, to list the most familiar. Some of the recipes come straight from the American Inwho cultivated beans from to Canada many centuries the coming of white men. The baked bean, for example, was lampiar fare around New England, Indisn camp fires long before the founding of Boston.

Just to Be Sure A tall, gaunt-looking person recently entered a hotel in a town where several fires had occurred and applied for a room at a price tofclch entitled him to lodging on the top floor of the house. Among his belongings the proprietor noticed a coil of rope, and asked what it was for. "That's a fire escape," said the man, "I carry one with me so I can let myself down from the window Without troubling anyone." "Good plan," said the landlord, "but guests with fire escapes like that pay in advance at this hotel." Identification A professor was one day nearing the close of a history iecture and was indulging in one of those rhetorical climaxes in wh<ch he delighted when the hour struck. The students immediately began to slam down the movable arms of their lecture chairs and to prepare to leave. The professor, annoyed at the interruption of his flow of eloquence, held up his hand: "Walt Just one minute, gentlemen. I have a few more pearls to cast" Just A Touch A certain banker was being called upon by a delegation from a charitable institution. He instructed his secretary to make up some excuse for not seeing them. "I'm sorry," she informed the delegate, "but Mr. Smith can't see you. He has a sprained back." "Well," said the delegate, "go back and tell Mr. Smith that I didn't come here to wrestle with him, but tq speak with him." IN CHABACTEB The absent-minded professor perfected a parachute device. He was taken up in a balloon to make a test of the apparatus. When he had arrived at a height of a thousand feet he climbed over the edge of the basket end dropped out He had fallen 300 feet when he remarked to himself, In a tone of deep regret: "Dear me) I've gone and forgotten my umbrella."
