Woodstock Friday night. Sounds like a baseball score, but the smack and thud told us it was real rugged football all the way.

Yards Passing: McHenry, 15; Woodstock, 80. McHenry travelled to Woodstock last Friday night for the first conference game of the 1956 season. Woodstock kicked off to McHenry- Bill Houck received and returned it to the McHenry 22- yrd line. The Blue Streaks held and\ McHenry punted. The McHenry line held Woodstock and forced them to punt. On a series of plays McHenry moved the ball from their own 32 yard line to the Woodstock 46 yard line. After failing to make a first down, the Warriors punted. The Warriors held Woodstock and forced them to punt. The Warriors started on their own 40 yard line and Bob Hauser and P. J. Schneider brought the ball to Woodstock's 44-yard line. The Warriors were forced to punt. A nice punt by Bill Houck put the Blue Streaks on their own 16 yard line. Paul Bourchardt and Gary Vogt stopped the Blue Streaks with some nice tackles and Woodstock was forced to punt. The Warriors failed to make a first down and punted. Charlie Olson and Wally Sehimke each threw Woodstock for a one yard loss on the next plays and forced the Blue Streaks to punt. McHenry's Mark Vycital attempted to pass but elected to, run when no McHenry men were in the open. He picked up 10 yards but a McHenry penalty for five yards stopped what might have been a McHenry drive. McHenry punted. Woodstock completed a pass for a first down. The next play Tom McMahon broke through and. threw Woodstock for a six yard loss. Bob Hauser broke up an end run of Woodstock for a four yard loss and the Blue Streaks were pushed back for another five when McMahon broke through again and nailed the ball carrier. Woodstock punted and McHenry started on their own 37 yard line with John Hogan, Bob Hauser and Bill Houck carrying the ball to the Woodstock 48 yard. line. The half ended after Woodstock intercepted a McHenry pass. Second Half McHenry kicked off to Woodstock. A penalty on McHeri/y for 15 yards placed the ball on Woodstock's 40 yard lihe. On the first play McHenry's defensive line backed, Ed Catron, made a jarring tackle at the line of scrimmage. McHenry recovered a Woodstock fumble on the next play, McHenry marched from their own 34 yard line to the Woodstock 7 yard line in eleven plays but a McHenry fumble broke the drive and Woodstock recovered. Woodstock made 4 yards on the next two plays and Wally Sehimke broke through on the third play and thew the Blue Streaks for an eight yard loss. Woodstock was going to punt but the ball was centered ovfer the piinters head into the end zone and gave McHenry two points on an automatic safety i McHenry kicked off from their own 20 yard line and after a series of downs McHeriry punt-, ed. The Blue Streaks took to the air and made two fks| downs but were forced to punt after* failing to make a first down. On the first play from scrimmage, P. J. Schneider made a nice 30 yard run but a clipping penalty on the Warriors brought the ball back to the McHenry 23 yard line. McHenry failed to make a first down and punted. Woodstock made a first down by passing and McHenry held and took over the bail on downs. The game ended with McHenry in possession of the ball. Score: McHenry 2--Woodstock 0. Final Analysis The game almost seemed like a punting duel with McHenry punting 7 times for an ^average of 31 yards per try. Woodstock punted 6 times for an average of 26 yards. McHenry drew 6 penalties for 60 yards while Woodstock drew 4 penalties for 35J/6 yards. P. J. Schneider carried the ball 14 times for an average of 3% yards per try. Bob Hauser averaged 4% yards, John Hogan 2,/£ and Bill Houck 2% yards per try. The McHenry line made the only scare by holding Woodstock within their own ten yard line and forcing the Blue Streaks to punt from their own one yard line. Charlie Olson, one of the spark plugs of the McHenry Warrior^, was injured early in the game. This left a big gap in the McHenry line. Jerry Raycraft, though short on experience but long on will and determination, did a fine job throughout the game. Charlie was up and around Saturday morning so we hope it won't be too long and he'll be back in action. Gary Vogt and Ed Caron did a fine job as defensive line-backers throughout the game. A1 Horn, Carl Walker and Mark Zimmerman ' played, their usual reliable tough brand" of ball. Home Game Friday McHenry's first home game will be with Barrington this Friday evening. Barrington whipped both Palatine and Warren by big scores and are considered one of the best teams of the confer* ence. McHenry could pull an upset and take this game. Barrington's Wallbaum had a big day against Warren but if the Warrior line can hold him down it will turn out to be quite a battle. Starting time is 8 !p.m. Fire Deaths In Homes Analyzed What are the most common reasons why people bu$n to death in' their homes? This is an important question, considering the fact that fire is second only to falls as a cause of the 27,500 deaths (to say nothing of the more than 4 million nonfatal injuries) that occurred in home accidents in lj955. A leading li^e insurance company recently made a study , of deaths from accidents in and about the home among its industrial policyholders aged 1 - 74. Here is what they found about home fire deaths. , Percent Cahse 13 c/r Smoking: 10% In bed, or in a sofa or chair -- usually falling asleep. 2% Burning cigarette left on furniture. 1 % Clothing set afire by a * dropped cigarette or sparks from a pipe. 13% Clothing ignited while working at stove, warm? ing self or walking near an. open fire. 11% Explosion of cooking, water or space -heathy eqi\ipment: 5% Oil fired (except kerosene). 1% Kerosene fired. 3% Gas fired. 2% Coal, wood and not specified. 4% Scalding: upsetting or falling into hot fluids.
