Personally, we have some better niftmes for it. Like a memory, it 'Dingers on. • The mailman brought (and s e n t ) s o m e v e r y c o n s o l i n g thoughts --« especially abotit our beloved White Sox. lliey seem to think we don't pray enough. (They Should know). Following that 23 to 10 drubbing the Braves handed the Cubs Sunday, everything died down. Hie Cubs had set a record or helped immeasurably so now our dear Cub fans are resting on their "record. ' While the ;ma jors are winding up their chores, our own county league teams have a lot of work ahead. The Johnsburg Tigers and Crystal Lake meet next Sunday in a 3-game series for the county championship. The McHenry Shamrocks will travel to Richmond next Sunday to battle it out for third place. Larry Stilling tells us this game will start at 1:30. Cg» Reports are that pitcher Terry Britz turned hitter in a big way last Sunday as he helped Crystal Lake swamp Richmond. •Coach Dick Rabbitt of St. Mary's of Woodstock sent us a complete list of his players with information about each man. Sounds optimistic for a football coach. But, a quick look tells us that Dick will have some weight in his line this year. Inexperience in several positions will be his problem. Anyhow, we like the optimism. It is certainly different. Good luck, Dick. JOHNSBURG TAKES SECOND IN ROW FROM McHENRY IN SERIES The Johnsburg Tigers made it two in a row in the play-offs, beating the McHenry Shamrocks 7 to 3 here last Sunday and moving into the final round with Crystal Lake next Sunday. ' Plenty of hits rattled off Shamrocks' bats, but such items as two double plays tended to snuff out rallies that might have tightened up the game. Pitchers in both sides were generous with free rides to first base, the Tigers getting Jf and the Shamrocks 8. "Tony" Freund, Johnsburg leadoff man had three bases on balls and a single in five trips to the plate. A glance at the score book also reveals that Wally Frett was on base 5 for 5. Wally drew three walks, was hit by a pitched ball, then singled for his last trip. Bob McCulla led the McHenry batters with three hits and a base on balls. McHenry travels to Richmond next Sunday for a 1:30 game in which the boys will try to prove that they are third best in the county league. Getting into the play-offs was a step in the right direction for the Shamrock team. The wife of a midwest farmer, whose place was isolated in the vastness of the prairie, suddenly went out of her mind and was carted away in a strait jacket by 4in ambulance from the nearest state hospital. An attendant remained behind to get the data on the case from the puzzled and distressed husband, who lamented, VNow what do you suppose could o' went wrong with the old woman? Why man, alive, she ain't been out of the kitchen in twenty years!" AB R , H R. Freund, If 2 1 1 L.

HEALTH TALK Calf Crop In Range States Yeah, Play It Safe A dyed-in-the-wool baseball fan was persuaded by friends to go to the horse races. Being a beginner, he picked a 50-to-l long-shot and put $2 on the nose. Coming into the stretch the long-shot horse was neck and neck with the favorite. As they neared the wire for a photo finish, the baseball man hollered, "Slide, you bum! Slide!" THE QREAT OUTDOORS NOTICE TO HUNTERS Some important "Do's and Don'ts" for prospective deer hunters were spelled out by Director Glen D. Palmer, Illinois Department of Conservation. The season opens Oct. 1 in 33 Illinois counties. Palmer's tips are: Make, certain you know where the deer are located in the county in which you wish to hunt; make doubly certain that you obtain the landowner's permission before hunting on his property; don't forget to buy a regular $3 hunting license to go along with the $5 deer permit. Palmer said that bow and arrow hunters are flooding the office here with requests for permits. He stated that there probably will be a much larger turnout of archers than had been expected. He cautioned bow hunters to get permission of landowners before the season opens. By Jack Walsh Squirrel hunting has been fair so far. The weather has been a bit warm, but the biggest complaint of most hunters concerns mosquitoes and flies with the former taking first place. It is almost impossible to sit down and wait for the squirrels to show themselves, unless you are well smeared with insect repellant. Most squirrel hunters are hop- ' Ing for an early frost to kill the bugs and thin some of the leaves out of the trees. Dove shooting is good. We noticed from numerous kills that ; many of the birds are young and -are not completely feathered out as yet. There is a big concentration of "doves in the Johnsburg and Spring Grove areas. The only problem is finding a place to hunt that is not .posted. We were surprised to see so few hunters in the woods last Sunday. ' Usually the woods are crawling with hunters on the opening day. " Maybe it was just the weather. Remember the walleyes that were dumped into Wonder Lake last year? Well, they are reported to be in good health and have attained an average size of 6 to 7 " inches'. Give them about 3 or 4 .more years and there will be some •wonderful fishing in Wonder Lake. b Pays To Advertise STATE PROPERTY DAMAGE Illinois ranks first in the nation in the number of deaths and second in amount of property damage from tornadoes, according to a report from the Illinois State Water Survey, Department of Registration and Education. Nine hundred and fourteen deaths and approximately $48,705,680 in property damage from 1916 to 1950 was caused by a total of 184 tornadoes. Tornadoes in Illinois have been particularly destructive because of the density of population. Rainfall which accompanies tornadoes in Illinois may be heavy, but generally lasts only a short time, according to meteorologists. CAR OVERTURNS Albert N. Baldocchi, 16, of Rt. 2, McHenry, sustained leg and shoulder injuries last Friday when his car went out of control and overturned in a ditch on Rt. 176, near Williams Park road, south east of the McHenry. 'The official calf crop report for 1957 was released recently. It gives us a better picture ^ of the feeder cattle situation than was available heretofore. The total number of calves born and to be born this year iSx estimated at 41.3 million head. This number is 2 percent less than last year, and 3 percent less than the record calf crop 3 years ago. Of the total calf crop, about 48 percent was from cows and heifers kept for milk, and 52 percent from other cows and heifers. Range states. The calf crop in the 17 range states is expected to be about 17.7 million head, compared with 18.4 million head last year. The reduction amounts to about 700,000 head, or 4. percent. The big reductions are in two states, Texas and Kansas. Texas will haye an estimated 3.8 million calves, 8 percent less than last year. Kansas will have 1.4 million, 12 percent less. Most of the other fifteen range states will have about the same number of calves as they had last year. YEARLINGS. On Jan. 1 the seventeen range states had about 10.0 million calves, or 6 percent less than one year before. Most of these calves are now yearlings. This number does not include dairy heifer calves. Again, the greatest reductions were in the southern plains -- Texas, Kansas and Oklahoma--where cuts averaged about 11 percent. RESTOCKING. Some of the range states cut cattle numbers during the drouth years, and may now rebuild herds. This is particularly true of Kansas and Texas. The number of non-dairy cattle in Texas on Jan. 1 was 6.5 million, down 12 percent from the peak four years before. The number in Kansas was 3.0 million, down 17 percent from the peak two years ago. This rebuilding job is relatively small compared I with some of those in the past, as I iri 1951 and 1952. Furthermore, it is not likely to be done in one year. The total number of non-dairy cattle on farms and ranches last Jan. 1 is estimated at 60.7 million head. This was only 2 percent less than the aft-time high a year before, and 1 percent less than the second highest number two years before., An addition of two million cattle would bring numbers up to near their all-time high in the seventeen range states. This numl ber would be about 10 percent of the calves and yearlings now in those states. Heavy restocking in the central and southern plains will restrict the supply of stockers and feeders moving out of those areas. On the othier hand, other areas of the United States also produce large numbers of beef cattle. There- AUTOMOJBILE ACCIDENTS What are you doing about auto-' mobile accidents? The increasingly popular use of the automobile as a means of transportation has provided a .concomitant increase in tragedy, much of which could be avoided if you did your part, the educational committee of the Illinois State Medical society observes in HEALTH TALK. , ; When you're behind the wheel of your car, do you have yourself under control? It's always easy to blame the other person, but remember that other person may be you. Deaths. and accidents caused by hv>tor vehicles can be reduced. SajEejfy devices are available; precautionary measures are publicized; warning signals are installed at grossing places; speeld limits are established. Yet accidents are reported each day.. Someone is responsible and that someone may be you. Are you physically aind emotionally fit to drive your car? Let's say that thff»£ajr(Js in good condition because , you wouldn't let a sputter in; the. motor continue without investigation. Not you. Your car must always be kept in smooth running condition. But how .about yourself? When have you had your last physical check-up? What does your state of health {?ave to do in curtailing automobile accidents? P1 e n t.y First of all, if you're tired, you're inclined to be impatient -- take chances. You become annoyed at the slow moving lane of traffic, so at the first suggestion of an opportunity, you swerve out to pass cars? You'll make it, you' think, but will you? Emotional elements, such as anger, sorrow, fear, disgust, elation and worry, restrict your ability to think straight, quickly and wisely. Any one of these sets you up as a potential killer or maimer. Are you over-confident when you drive? Do you try to "beat the light?" Do you drive so rapidly around corners that you send pedestrians scurrying, frequently to fall and injure themselves? Are you careful at railroad c r o s s i n g s ? C o l l i s i o n s b e t w e e n automobiles and trains have become all too common. Do you drive when you drink? If you do, stop. Statistics reveal that drinking and driving don't go together. Physical disability and driving efficiency have a direct relationship. Arthritis is one condition, for example, that may affect your driving efficiency.

EXHIBITION MTACH An exhibition match between a McHenry woman's bowling team and the famous ladies Algauer's team of Chicago took place at the McHenry Recreation Saturday evening, Aug. 31. The McHenry girls lost the match but not by too great a margin. The girls were served pizza after the match and a rematch was planned for a later date. The team scores were as follows: Algauer Team: C. Winandy 494 K. Freitag 534 M. Prava 462 M. Sibley 557 M.

Do you avoid jaywalking, Ipok carefully-, when getting off a bus or streetflMV look in all directions before, grossing a street or road, watch for turning cars even though you have,.the right of way, carry bundles or umbrellas So they won't impair your vision, and are you esjieciajiy careful when walking at night?
