9 TO UF VJ^J^YITT %t^w '•"•^^\ -j|? R*?;*( WyF THE McHENRY PLAINDEALEH ^ Thursday, September 15,1955 F* AJX- 9HEATE'I The Comiskey family squabble over Frank Lane goeB to Show that all the "Fighting Irish" a noj at Notre Dame. Things have been tough all dver since people somehow came up with the notion that the White Sox can't**win the penant. We wondered why bookkeeper Buckie was so anxious for us to report to this Plaindealer office a few days ago. And the Bdss was real sure we received, our mail. Very solicitous. We were so happy to find two tickets for the fourth place consolation series between the Whit£ Sox and Phillies. The tickets were "also good for the Republican Convention". The news moved around and soon there w^re demands for more tickets. But, our Sox are still in there. Let there be hope. If the Sox should lose, it's their own fault. They should have brought up this pitcher named "Jet". Gus Moritz claims they have him hidden in the minors. "Jet" throws so fast that the batter doesn't see the ball until the catcher lobs it back to the mound. He must be g^od! Gus claims this speed boy struck out nine men in two innings. Which adds suspicion that perhaps the umpires couldn't see the ball either. We need more pitchers the likes 'o Jake Stoffel in his prime. You have all heard of switch-hitters. Jake was a switch-pitCher. When his right arm tired, he threw with his left. The Shamrocks lost a very close battle to the Crystal Lake Merchants last Sunday that put them out of the county league championship play-offs. It took eleven innings of play and quite a few arguments With the umpires to get things settled. „ Pheanis, and his assistants have been working like all get out t*> condition the squad and put a snappy team on the field. McHenry had a poor season last year when it was necessary to dip into the J.V. ranks for material. Just how things will shape; up this year remains a big question. Among the boys counted on for good performances this year are the following let term en: Wally Schimke, Dick Olson, Bill Huemann, Chuck Sales, Tom McMahon, Ed Cepulis, Chuck Majercik, Charles Olson, Phil Schneider and Mark Zinjmerman. From our limited observation in practice, it seemed that our line is showing a certain snappiness that can spell trouble for the opposition. Smoothing out the backfield play always takes a game or two. We wish Coach Pheanis, his assistants and his boys eVery success. If they give us their best, we will be with them all the way. -- BOWLING NOTES -- A moratorium has been declared this week on bowling scores. With activity running high in three alleys, the list has grown too large to handle. The "Board of Directors" will work out a new system and be ready for next week. Outstanding scores will be brought up to date. We hear Bette O'Brien would be disappointed if her 208- 496 did not appear. After all, it took her seven years to hit 200. Marion Donnelly has had big scores before, but a 203-546 series looks good in print. % THE GREAT OUTDOORS By Jack Walsh None of the arguments were on rule interpretations. 'Twas just that the boys thought maybe tne umps didn't enjoy 20-20 vision. -The championship ••games start at Johnsburg .oiexl ^Sunday. This is a 3-game series Aetween the Tigers and the Crystal jLake Merchants and should be a Heal hot series. Many people have been asking for the "Illinois Fish and Game" books. We have been notified by the Department of Conservation that as soon as these books are available they will be distributed by local game wardens.

This was the^deciding game in, the play-offs and sends Crystal Lake into the championship series with the Johnsburg Tigers. Radovich led off with a single to right and advanced after Bockman hauled in Dale, Feffer's foul far out on the grass. Manager Joe Feffer went into his act to protest that the ball was caught outside the playing field. He lost. As things turned out, McHenry would have been better off if the ruling had been changed. Dulaney lifted a short fly into left center that everybody went after and nobody snared. John Bolger got to it, then lost it as Radovich scored. Things were looking up in Mc- Henry's half as Sonny Miller doubled with two out. Bockman walked. Harry Stilling singled to left and the general opinion was £hat Miller slid in before the tag/ The ump said, "Yer out," and that is how the play went into the records. Radovich scored again in the seventh after another hit to right. He went to second on a hit by Norm Britz and scored when Howard Knox dropped Feffer's fly ball. Shamrocks Score McHenry scored a run in the seventh when John Bolger was safe on an error by Rooney at short. Guv Bolger shortened up for Roewer's speed and slashed a hit to left. John went to second on the hit and raced home when Feffer failed on Gerry Molidor's hard grounder. There was great joy in Shamrockville in the eighth. Miller led off with a single. Bockman was safe on a fielder's choice as his attempted sacrifice forced Miller, Roewer to Rooney. Howard Knox lined a triple to right center to tie up the ball game. Both pitchers tried to end it all sooner, but help wasn't there when needed. Roewer hit a triple with one out in the eighth. Miller doubled with one out in the tenth. Both perche*! right there. A great catch by Howard .Knox robbed Britz for McHenry.

This was a joint meeting with Wisconsin superintendents and our own "Super," A1 Purvey, was the genial host. The guest speaker of the day was Dr. Jim Watson, agronomist of the Toro Mfg. Co: There were an even hundred playing golf and a couple dozen more came for dinner. Julius Goffo said the beautiful buffet table looked like an "A" bomb hit it after all had passed by. Mr. Purvey took many bows for compliments received on the condition of the local golf course, but modest Al shared his laurels by complimenting his good employees. "Without cooperation and determination,". says Al, "it could not be done." The Illinois pro-greenskeepers won for the fifth straight tiirte over their Wisconsin friends in their annual grudge ma^c^. for the state trophy. The winners in the two ball best ball 36-hole tournament were George Kinsala and his partner Ray Hughes, who toured the course these past two weeks with a 123. Finishing second were Frank Fourke and his partner Harry Hans with 126. The Peoria best ball two-some winners were John Varese aijd F. O. Marion with 59. Holes used to determine this event were 7-8-9- 16-17-18. The blind bogey winners were the two-some of Bill Meath and Nick Freund. The McHenry ladies winners of the low putts were: Class A, Ann Varese and Alice Marion; Class B, Berniece Jensen and Belle Voight; Class C. Flora Fitzgerald; and Class D, Mary Buckie and Mildred Hinspater. Next week the event will be the ladies two ball foursome.

This year the average person will get 79 pounds of beef, 67 pounds of pork, 10 pounds of veal and 4 pounds of lamb and mutton. These four are the so-called red meats. They make up the 160-pourid total. In addition to these red meats, American families are enjoying large amounts of fish, poultry and eggs. The average person will eat about 11 pounds, fish this year -- the same amount as last, year and 8 per cent more than in 194^49. (The years 1947- 49 are used as a base for many government figures. They constituted a prosperous period between the regulated economy of World War n and the Korean War.) The supply of chicken totals about 23 pounds per person -- 4 per cent less than last year but 26 per cent more than in 1947- 49. We will have about 410 eggs - 1 per cent less than last year but 8 per cent more than in 1947-49. We will also use more of most dairy products than in most previous years.
