Hi Martin--•: Since you %rot# We frtrte that the Brownies have. given the bounce to Manager Hornsby. We seem to recall that Hornsby called our White Sox a bunch of bush-leaguers before the season started. Being sensitive artists, our Sox slapped the Hornsby Browns down 6 out of 9. He shouldn't have said that! We haven't done much sparring on politics since "Mose" retired. You never know how many Democrats exist until the votes are counted. See you at the World Series, Martin. -- in Chicago! Yours, . . •••; s. Irffc Our "Brenda" was presented witfi a special trophy last week by the G.A.A. at M.C.HiS.

Without Frank's melodious warbling all you can hear in the Plaindealer shop is the monotonous clang of machinery. We can expect to hear some good, old western numbers when he returns.

McHenry threatened in the first inning as they loaded the bases with runners but nothing came of it. Crystal Lake scored first on two hits, McHenry then bounced back and scored three runs. The game had a few errors and became sloppy at some points. The game was highlighted by two home runs both hit by Crystal Lake men which produced three of their six runs. The McHenry Legion team out-hit the Crystal Lake team seven to five. The two Crystal Lake pitchers struck out 11 MCHenry batters, but at the same time they walked 12 men which produced many of McHenry's runs. But, with Long it was different, he made up for his mental lapses by striking out 13 men and walking only 2. In the last four innings he struck out 9 batters while not giving up a walk. McHenry stole nine bases whle Crystal Lake stole only one. The way it looks McHeni*y should have a pretty good season.

Greene has landed a muskie lunker on every occasion of his twice-yearly visits at Long Cottages, here the past three years. His latest, last week, was an 11 pound, 35 incher, hooked on it red bucktail in Plum Lake. Mrs. Greene had the thrill of pulling in her first muskie on the same trip, boating a 10 pound, 34 incher, also on a red bucktail. "I've had good luck on muskies ever since I started going to Long's on Plum Lake," reports Green.
