The aniual Old Timers' baseball game was played on the McHenry diamond last Sunday with the Shamrocks shutting out the oldsters 8 to 0. iAfter watching the lighter The box score will show you Warrior line make a couple of j how the teams lined up( but no Stubborn stands against the. vis- effort was made to keep track -ttQjjjs, we concluded once more I of the many switches® in- posithat it isn't the size of the dog tions l#,|jthe fight but the size- of the in the dog.

Of low passes from center to our punter told a big part of the Stoiy. While our kicking did not COippare with Lake Forest's, we know that a bad pass and rush- ' ing line give a kicker very little chance to boot 'em. McHenry has speed in that backfield. If they can break it loose, they are sure to give some of these teams a lot of worry. Keith Lowrey, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Lowrey, Route 3, has been promoted to the rank of major and appointed as executive officer of the group commander's staff in the AFROTC cadet unit at Coe College, Cedar Rapids, Iowa. A. senior student, Lowrey is als^ a member of Coe's varsity fodfiball squad and president of hi$c social fraternity Phi Kappa TaU. _v ' The y6ung boys and old boys all had a pack of fun in the McHenry Old Timers' baseball game last Sunday. •ftie oldsters did not come up with the lineup or surprising pls^y of a year ago, but did keep tiie Shamrocks from rolling up a^g score. •-**. -a<" -«•' .... , "Sonny" Miller, who seems at home N in any position, started th$; game as a catcher, switched abound the infield and wound up as. the pitcher. We had a young fellow named "Slippy" helping with announcing. No "puke"' fright, with that boy. Guesb we will have to ta)b hifflt for future use. Jphe Shamrocks used an extriune shift to keep Gerry Larkin's bat under control. Of coiuirse, in Gerry's prime he would haye slammed the ball over their heaids and laughed at the switch. Ffet Aid Class -- The Johnsburg Rescue Squad wants us to tell you that their group will sponsor a first aid class starting Monday evening. glasses will be held in the Public School at Johnsburg. The time is between 7 and 9 P. M. It is a great opportunity to le&rn first aid so please call Jerry Hettermann - 413-J. While the old fellows kept the Shai,nrocks from splurging with a big inning, their own attack was on the feeble side. While potential flower rested at the top of the batting order, the hitting showed up in the lower portion. When the fornier stars- did. get. the wood on the ball, some outfielder iifwas on hand; to spoil, it all. For instance, "Moose" Wagner really lined one into center in the seventh, but Howard Kftox was, in the right spot. The Shamrocks looked over a rookie, Eddie Buss, in the infield but haven't decided whether or not he will be farmed out. His single, double and base on balls and scoring of three runs looked good in the lead-off spot. Carl Thorsell, Mayor of Volo, was the speedster you may have <•% tliursday, September 30, 1954 •i.;; r. 3b jrii ©•* McHENRY -- Bowling Bar -- Thurs. Nite Ladies -- G. & G.

Oct. 4, in Memorial hall. The Community Club has called this meeting "Tiger Night" in honor of the Johnsburg Tiger baseball team.

After the meeting refreshments will be served by the committee: Henry Nell, George Nowak, Alfred Oef fling, Lloyd Oeffling, Peter Oeffling, Ted Pitzen, Ed Piesert, Henry Reese and John Reinboldt.

Begins At Home Where do your young boys and girls spend their time when they are not in school? Quite a few parents have very little idea and yet they are often the ones who sit unconcernedly by until something happens, then unbelievingly say, "I can't understand how he could have done such* a thing." Is your young boy or girl keeping good company, or is he well on his way to "becoming a statistic on the ever increasing • juvenile delinquency figure of our country ? * Is he out in your car -- or driving a friend's -- travelling at speeds endangering not only his own life but those of other 'teen-agers packed in the car. with him, as well as other motorists? It might be wise to check and see. A number of break-ins have been reported in McHenry county in the last year. Is your boy learning the "trade" while av/ay from home*, attempting; to prjp opera: some: mcrcfeantfa> door or enter by other illegal mqans? Are your young folks among those who maliciously destroy property of others? Are they ripping chrome off someone else's car or scratching the fiijteh?»- If you don't know; it migpif. be a good: ideas to- find out; Are your 'teen-agers among' those in whose cars intoxicating drinks? might well be found If authorities were to have reason to make an inspection? v ^ Not yours, you say^iy^: perhaps they;&re not, but police officers in many communitiesiQf like size carry long lists of offenders in all of these categories. There is no immunity just because they happen to be YOUR children so don't bet that it can't happen to you. Neither laws nor law enforcement are the answer. It lies in the guidance and instruction of youngsters of all ages in the home -- the teaching by parents in the fundamental precepts of decent behavior and good citizenship. Most young folks today are well behaved, well mannered individuals. There isn't much, wrong with the minority that a little severe home training Won't cure. Citizenship begins at home! WARRIORS LOSE TO LAKE FOREST 14-7 AFTER STRONG STAND By Ralph Patzke' The Warriors lost a heartbreaker last Friday as they were beaten by Lake Forest 14-7 on their home field. In tile first half great defensive play by the Warriors against a larger Lake Forest offensive team held the Scouts to a nothing to nothing score at Hie end of the half. Lake Forest's offense fell apart in the third quarter when Useman picked up a fumble and ran twenty yards for a touchdown. The extra point was added by Oeffling on an end run. The score was 7-0 in favor of the Warriors. All of Lake Forestte scoring came in the final quarter when STRICTLY FRESH m ^ they recovered a McHenry fumble" hours and>~peusion&> -One and went over for the TD. The extra point was added and the spore was tied 7-7. After the kickoff the Warriors were forced to punt but Sales was ruslysd and forced to run. Lake Forest took over on McHenry's 27-yard, line. The Scouts went over for a touchdown from the six inch line after a valiant effort by tl>®d Warriors to ward off anoth|r| Lake Forest touchdown. The extra point was good and the final score was Lake Forest 14, the Warriors 7. Old Timers -- Pyritz, 2218 -- Nimtz, 2107. Pyritz, 210. Cristy's, 2350 -- Petersen's, 2262.

Bard of Barrington last Tuesday rescued her 21-month-old son from their burning home as three other children fled to safety. The fire almost completely destroyed the 10-room, $70,000 home. One of the great pitchers of all time, 73-year-old Ed Walsh, doesn't like the way the game is played these days. One of the worst things, he says, is the intentional pass. If he could have his way, he says, he would make the inte-i/Jonal pa^.s good for two bases. As related in The Sporting News, Walsh snys he maiie two trips to Boston from his home in Meriden, Conn., just to see Ted Williams hit. In those two games, he said, Williams was walked five times, at least three of the walks intentional. When a fan pays to see a man swing, and instead sees him walked, Walsh said, he's being cheated. MCHS NEWS Student Council This year we will not follow the regular procedure on the bonfire night before homecoming as we have in past years. The bonfire will be held in the back of the American legion hall as usual. Following the bonfire we will have a small snake dance to the football field. Here a rally will be held, with skits by the football team and oheerleaders. The pep band is scheduled to be there to get us into the spirit. Since the program for the rally has not been set up, any suggestions will be gratefully accepted. Please put these in the student council suggestion box in study hall or talk to a council member concerning this project.
