Of course, the Tigers have to win two out of three from the pow&ful Algonquin nine and that's a big order. Manager Ted Pitzen announces that the first game will,be played next Sunday at Johnsburg. - That should be quite' a serfes'. Both teams have earned their way to the final play-offs and neither will be happy with anything but the top-notch. Deer Season Lures Local Bowmen The game is b&iig covered Ih high school notes elsewhere in tMs issue qp this department is merely reporting what we saw in ;the way of sidelights. We saw Wayne Dixon make a lot of tackles.--And we saw the ."entire team brace to hold the visitors on four occasions when •'touchdowns seemed like only a tnatter of one more play. '» Contrary to many ideal athletic pAdeavors, McHenry's best offense was their defense until they started throwing the ball. A recovered McHenry fumble, with 2 minutes and 9 seconds to go, set up the chance for the Btuessy boys to tie the game. Woodstock's . Don Freund southpewed a pass to Joe Berg for Woodstock's touchdown. tvjp Ouch Stuessy had a snappy, Mttle guy named Johnny Dunham Mooting around except when an Sfljary had him sidelined. We'd like to have him on our side if we were making up a team. The Warriors travel to White- Water on Friday afternoon of this week and will probably be faced •with a big task. This game will at 4 p.m. Daylight Saving Time. We saw Ann Paluch make her Wwt as baton twirler in putting Paul Yanda's band through forma$ ons.

We like the idea. "Mac" has plenty of work In developing his offense. Well see how they roll Friday at Whitewater. That should be a good test. Good luck, fellows. And tackel 'em low. R*>bert Hoffman, of Whitewater State Teachers' College, has been giving some valuable tennis instructions on the local courts of late. Hoffman played on the Whitewater team and is ready to pass his knowledge of the game along to new players who are trying to master the racket. The Marathon gas station just east of the new bridge has for the last few weeks been the site of feverish preparation by scores of local bow-hunters who will be heading north soon in search of venison via the feathered shaft, f Any evening these days one can stop in down there and observe all these strange people at work, with their wierd lingo of bows, butts and bull in general. Most of them are members of the Northern Illini Bowmen and they're making up their arrows in "Bob's Station", as it is known. Incidentally, according to the operator, Bob Svoboda, who is also an avid archer, the station is not only the ^ocal spot for archery fiends, but ft also sells some gasoline on occasion. But one will find these people, men and women alike fletching their shafts, dipping or knurling; burning feathers, tenor cutting or* cresting; bracing and drawing their bows, honing knives or broadheads. The bowmen are making their own ammunition and they're making it the best way they know how, so it will fly straight and put meat on the table. They have all hunted rabbits, pheasants and squirrels with their bows, but for all but four of them this will. W their first deer season-- their first chance at big game with the arrow. Those four first tried their luck in Northern Wisconsin last year. They brought back two deer and enough stories to fill the entire club with envy. Consequently, the number going from here this year is at least eighteen and many more would go if they could. Four couples will be leaving thig weekend ih time for the opening day. Sept. 23: Mr. and Mrs. Frank Howard, Jr., McCullom Lake; Mr. and Mrs. Tim Wheelock, McHenry; Mr. and Mrs. Robert Seymour, Crystal Lake; and Mr. and Mrs. James Sills. Zion. Mr. and Mrs. Bred Wahl, McHenry are hoping t<?»go also, but they may not get away. A week later another gang will be packing their tackle and rolling north out of McHenry: Bob Svoboda, Lily Lake; Boyd Dowel 1 and Harry Mueller, McHenry; Carl Tommas, Johnsburg; Phil Wheelock, Norman Knaapk, McHenry; Gilbert Moschinski, Mc Henry; Bill Schlitt, McCullom Lake; and Jack Sales, McCullom Lake. There will be no tourist cabins or guns of any kind for these people. They will live, sleep and cook in the open woods and will have only their bows and arrows «f'V'Ni vvv**-. 2i, im Try HiMmr icn inning BATTLE 6-3 Sensational1 Play Ends Game Filled Wilh Heroic Effort ft o .
