Harry Stilling made a great catch of Don Blanken's terrific line drive into left center in the second, then "Sonny" Miller struck out the side in the third -- all three going down swinging. And that brings us up to the fourth. Koch led off with a single to center. Moehle tried to sacrifice, but drew a safe hit on a perfect bunt that rolled almost to first base. Mavis flied to short. Leibert's short fly caught Harry Stilling playing deep (perhaps out of respect to Ironer power) and fell safe. The bases were loaded and Blanken up. He whistled a drive through short, too hot to handle, and two runs scored. Leiibert scored while Molidor was throwing out Wilbrandt, Blanken advancing to third. Miller faked a throw to first, then wheeled to pick off Blanken for the third out. McHenry threatened along the line, but lacked the punch with ducks on the pond. Ratray Homers Ratray. a fellow with nromise, drove a mighty hOflie run to the road in center field in the eighth for Algonquin's final score. The home boys stirred up some interest in the eight when Murphy singled and Bill Bolger drew a pass (Bill has drawn 3 w^alks in 4 trips, playing part time in two games). Blanken, who had replaced Leibert on the mound in the seventh, slipped called third strikes past the next two batters. The home ninth was packed with hope and excitement. Bob Knox singled to left.

Yankee pitchers can't get careless and continue being Yankees..-- Larry Gilbert, operating the Nashville club of the Soutnern Association, had his eye on a rookie early this year, reports the Sporting News, and. wanted to find out what kind of a hitter the lad was .... He finally asked one of the rookie's 1953 teammates . . . "Well, he hits three ways," answered the teammate. "Right hand, left hand and seldom." The Sporting News point* out that Rube Walker of ~»e Dodgers is probably top galloper for slowness of foot in the majors. But he holds the all-tifne Nashvjlle record for three stolen bases in an inning. Billy Herman gets a chuc'Me out of relating this story on Stan Hack, says the Sporting News: Burleigh Grimes was pitching for the Cubs with Stan playing third. Hack made a booboo cn a grounder and snapped his finders in disgust. Grimes might have gotten out of the inning except for another error by Hack, who again snapped his fingers to show his chagrin. Charlie Grimm, managing the Cubs, yanked Grimes. But Burleigh, boiling, snarled: "Why take me out? Why not the guy who is only snapping his finders at the ball?"- If nothing else; says the Sporting News, the Pirates can claim players who are members of two of the largest families in the major leagues. Pitcher George O'Donnell cames from a healthy Igroup of eight girls and five ooys, while OOtftelder Jarrf Lynch is one of children.

Phone 1000 Warn Buyers On Wheat Purchases Bach person who buys wheat from a producer during- 1954-55 is liable for the amount of the marketing quota penalty due on 'excess" wheat of the 1954 crop, Lester E. Leigh, chairman of the Illinois Agricultural Stabilization and C o n s e r v a t i o n c o m m i t t e e , points out. Since marketing quotas are in effect for the 1954 crop, farmers who do not comply with their farm wheat acreage allotments become subject to a lien on their crop until the marketing quota penalty is paid. "When anyone purchases wheat from a producer, he should be certain that such producer is eligible to sell his wheat", Mr. Leigh declared. "He should therefore request the producer to present a wheat marketing card or marketing certificate at the time the wheat is offered for sale. "Failure to present a marketing card or certificate at the time of sale will be evidence that the wheat is not clear of lien for the penalty, and the buyer will be held responsible for the lien the same as he would be for purchasing wheat with any other lien attached." "The buyer may, however, protect himself by deducting the penalty from the price paid for any wheat which he purchases and for which the producer cannot furnish a marketing card or marketing certificate. He also has the same type of protection in purchasing wheat from an "intermediate buyer." Those buyers who purchase wheat from anyone other than a producer or intermediate buyer will not be held responsible since the first purchaser of the wheat is liable for the total amount of the penalty unless a marketing card, a marketing certificate, or an intermediate buyer's record and report showing satisfaction of the penalty is presented at the time of purchase.

'Mi '->* v ' j v ; - v . ; t f e B A F E a r WORKERS Df TOWN: PlAlNDBAIJGlt WANT ADS Honorable William M. Carroll, judge at the circuit court of McHenry county, addressed the regular monthly meeting of the McHenry County 'Bar association held on May 24. The Bar association, which consists of forty-six attorneys practicing in McHenry county, formulating a public relation program similar to that instituted by other bar associations. The purpose of such a program to familiarize the public with the • various types of services performed by the legal profession and to explain the relationship between the attorney and client. This public relations program has been emphasized by Harry c. Kinne, Jr., the current president of the McHenry County Bar association and in conjunction With Herbert O. Krenz, chairman'" of the public relations committee, and William Caldwell, chairman of the program committee of the local Bar association, plans are being formulated for a definite program to be followed by the Bar association. To initiate this program, Attorney Caldwell introduced as the Bar association's first guest speaker Judge Carroll, who, after congratulating the group on its announced activity in promoting a public relations program, stressed its importance in the increasing publicity being given to various types of proceedings and hearings in which members of the legal profession are participating. He briefly reviewed the changes that have taken place in McHenry county during the past nine years he has been on the circuit court bench, calling attention to the increase in population and court activity necessitating the addition of one judge to the Seventeenth Judicial district comprising McHenry, Winnebago, Lake and Boone counties.
