The Lutheran parsonage is sporting a new coat of white paint, thanks to the men of the church who worked like busy beavers on the house. When the parson and his wife returned from their vacation, the house looked so clean that they went around the block twice, thinking they had taken a wrong turn. Some of the men thought they had gotten the wires twisted; they worked on church property, but the temperature soared to nearly 100, and they wondered why it was that instead of heavenly breezes they felt like Hades was just around the corner.

The Rockets will be in defense of their title they won last season. They are working on a 13- game winning streak at the present time. The last game they lost was tot Williams Bay ft the opening pf.the 1953 season! "Williams Bay went on to win the title that season undefeated. Bert Nafziger, who enjoyed much success here as football and basketball coach, is at Bradley high school this year and he has our best wishes for a very successful year as assistant football coach and head basketball coach. Some of the returning lettermen this season are Terry Gunderson, Bob Miller, Benny Fout, Jim Harris, Bob Christian and Rog Shaw. The loss of Ron Miller," Chuck Brunswick and Bob Popelke will be felt, but on the other hand Dave Harris and Dick Buchert will be up from the freshman team. Both saw action with the varsity last season. The Rockets' first home game will be against Palmyra Sept. 16. Next week we will have a complete schedule of the Richmond team. We will also try to have an interview with the new coach and be able to tell you as much about him as possible. Hebron will be the top contender this season and Genoa City will be in its first season in the conference and will definitely be a dark horse. Other teams in the league are Darfen, Clinton and Sharon, Wis., and Capron, HI. Richmond Bowling League The Richmond bowling league gets on its way at the Twin Lakes bowling alley on Sept. 15. Teams that are represented from Richmond are Anderson's Candies, Miller's Corners and Village Inn. Other teams are from Spring Grove, Wilmot, Bassetts and Twin Lakes. Last season the team from Wilmot was the winner. With three entries from Richmond, maybe we can have a winner back in Richmond this season. f The Women's league also opens the same night. Teams in this league are Borre's from Richmond, Bassetts, Twin Lakes recreation and Wilmot. Bassetts won the women's division last year. Richmond Out of Play-offs For the first time in ten years, the Richmond entry in the McHenry county semi-pro baseball league finished out of the first division. If they could have won their last game against McHenry they would haVe been in a 3-way tie for fourth place, but as it was they lost and wound up in sixth place. Ray Miller, manager of the team, stated earlier this week that this was his re-building year and he used mostly all youngsters to give them the nefeded experience they will have to have in future years. We know Ray knows his baseball and that he won't settle for anything but the first division so we look for Miller's Corners to be back up near the top next season. The McHenry county league is one of the oldest and strongest in the state and to be in the play-offs a player has to hustle all the time and be in top condition at all times. Leading hitters for Millers this season are. as follows: Harvey Miller, 379; Gene Pickering, 357; Connie Miller, 319; and Rich Miller, 302. Last Sunday score: Millers Corners, 6; Wilmot 5. Labor Day, Sept. 5, will be a big day at the Miller baseball park, it will be old-timers' day. Former players who are alumni of Millers Corners baseball team will be the opponents. £ome of the old timers to take part are Roddy ( S p e e d ) W i n n , D i c k (Home-run) Van Every, Gene Christianson, Floyd (Jig) Zarnstorff, Fritz (Minor League) Otting, Jerry Miller and possibly Buster Smith. This will be more than a grudge game, because the losing team will have to buy the , refreshments. Also, we hear that Ray (Muskegon) Miller himself Mfill take the mound against the old timers. Don't forget this big. game on Labor Day. It will be the wind-up for Millers Corners this season and probably the wind-up for the old-timer's period. Fishing Fishing in the Nippersink creek should start to be better now that the cooler weather is here. We have had reports of a few bass and a number of large blue gills taken over the weekend. The warm, clear weather continues to bring large crowds to the Hunter Golf <ylub in Richmond and the course is in good shape except for some fairways are extra hard due to the long dry spell. The greens are in wonderful condition. Last week we heard of three golfers who shot par for the course and one person who shot a 70 for two under par. When you ,shoot under par on the Richmond) course you have really accomplished something. D. E.
