At 6:45 next Tuesday night, March 4, the first whistle toots as the Elgin team faces Grunt High. At present, Elgin rates the No. 14 spot in state ratings. Their rating in this tournament will uartainly be high. "{Jrant is said to have the size to cause plenty of trouble. In the second game Tuesday night, staring at 8:30, Duudee and Antioch will square off. While Dundee does not «njoy the high ranking of some previous years, close followers of the game say to watch 'em. It is pointed out that Duudee is ulways a tournament team and that they have been climbing steadily to peak condition for this jneet. ..

Certainly Crystal Lake rates higher than the MCHS squad, but Coach Fulton has had success in getting his team up for certain tough battles. Crystal Lake has a more experienced team that cau boast of handing the Hebron Green Giants their only set-back of the season. Odds favor the Lakers. McHenry hopes run with the Warriors.-- And those Warriors can run! At this writing Hebron has to win the district meet at Richmond before gaining the right to play iu the regional. Nobody doubts their .ability to make it, but nobody dares sell that St. Edward's team short. That's the team Hebron must get past in the district meet.

However, they couldn't go any farther as six men -were forced to retire from the game after committing five fouls apiece. Slow Starters Delavan got off to a flying start and took advantage of the slow-starting Warriors. The Warriors could t^ally only, one field goal in the first quarter and that nw by Ron Ford, who was pulled from the lineup because of fouls. Coach Fulton planned to save Ron for the second half.
