Larry Stilling phoned and we wondered jf spring training was ab6ut to start. It was to ask us .to tell you About the Shamrock 1 ^Feather Party at Mi Place Tavern ne*t Wednesday night, November 27. You all know that you cannot run, a ball team on the take at th| gate these days so the boys have to find other ways to finance th6 team. Everybody wants to see Mc- Henry represented in the County League so let's join the fun and .be sure there is enough on hand fmekt spring to buy bats and balls. Dear "So I Hear" Well-- there you be in a nice restful, peaceful, and quiet old hospital, and here I be -- housecleaning! 1 am reminded this morning of your favorite "get a rise out of" expression, "Whatever became off" £ Oh, how you have overworked that gag, especially when, as -now, -during housecleaning season, some ' old relic had been surreptitiously -spirited out of the house to be put on the collectors truck in the name of sweet charity. "Whatever became of the clock that used to be on the stairs?" Whew! That's all we needed brother. Mother always rose to the bait and we enjoyed a long. ^ jfllssertation on the sentimental arid practical value of a timepiece which notified the entire household of the time we arrived home, day or night. What time this, and what time that. The late lamented clock had a gold filigree design on the glassr which the previous owner had scratched with his pocket knife so that ha might better see the pendulum in its swinging back and forth. (JWhatever became of the time people Once had to watch clock pendulums? Whatever became of a million things in our lifetime? Today I am reminded and wondering whatever became of the host of experts-- sportswriters-- critics and many others who didn't know about the Spirit of Notre Dame and the team that decided they would SOONER jilpy Oklahoma than Michigan •State or Navy. What a football . game! Of course, if these so-called exports had examined the statistics instead of the 40-0 score of last year they might have giyen N.D. aij outside chance, in the same which they considered the last stand of the Irish". In 1956 the Irish led in 1st downs J6--12, -trailed, on yds r\ish- \$ing 147--119, led in parsing 99-- '8% fumbled same number of times as opponent bqt had 4 passes intercepted. Did you know, That'N.D. has won every toss of| the coin so far this season and that the coin used in the Oklahoma game was presented to Capt. Prendergast. The face- of the coin shows the hehneted head of & football player and the reverse, the cleated shoes. That, the spirit of the team and student body was so high that the team was only MILDLY surprised to find the assistant coach Henry Stram at the airport Friday morning ready to accompany them on the trip. He underwent an appendectomy on Wednesday! Fightin' Irish that O' Stram. ' ' That, as the 'team was prepay ing toboard the plane for tlie^ return trip a gentleman about to board another plane stepped forward and shaking hands congratulated one of the players on the great game. The player not understanding his name said "You look familiar but I do not recall meeting you before". Whereupon the gentleman countered "Well I was the referee at your game today!" That, one of the things contributing greatly to the victory was the scouting of Oklahoma • by Bernie Crimmins (Ex-Indiana) and his "on-the-phone" reports to the bench during the game. That, among the congratulatory messages received by Coach Bren nan was one from a Brooklyn follower of N.D. who has named Brennan as a beneficiary in his will. That, I'm going to let you in on a little secret, or perhaps you watched the movies of the game Monday night. You're right, the movies show a second N.D. touchdown despite that eleven man stand by the red-shirted Sooners. YeS, t'was a great day for the Irish, and possibly for the good sports like Bud Wilkinson of Oklahoma who must have been under a terrific strain with that string of victories. But I can just hear you say "Whatever became of YOUR - Cubs?" DAILY PINUPS: The affection of a puppy perhaps means more to some, than the esteem of a lion. Abstract art actually proves a point, that things are seldom as bad as they're painted. Winter is the season when bare backs on the beach make way for bare limbs on the trees. Never kick the other guy until you've walked in his shoes. First things first and others after, to build a safe home you start with a rafter. The most logical thing in living is to live one day at a time.

The Warriors took the lead in the opening minute and were never in trouble the rest of the night. First game jitters saw McHenry < miss a few easy shots at the beginning of the game, but [for the rest of the game the team shot very well as they shot at a .487 clip for the entire game. For a first game the team functioned very well, making only six mechanical errors. These were four fumble^, one steps and one bad pass. The team appears to be deep in manpower in almost every positidn, as coach Fulton used two units in both the first and second halves without too much difference being noticed between the two squads. .Denny Conway, Matt Eichinger, Jim Justen, Mark Vycital and Don Bentz started the game and were relieved by John Moss, A1 Cajthaml, Bob Hauser, Ed Caron and Tom Claybaugh early in the second quarter. Jim Creighton also saw action in the last quarter as all players participated in a team effort. Roger Benson, a big 6'-4" senior suited up, but was unable to play because of extremely sore ankles. We hope that these ankles heal in a hurry as Roger should be a big help in games to come. Conway and Caron led the scorers with 16 and 13 points. In all. nine Warriors contributed to the scoring. Don Bentz lead the offensive rebounding with 13 rebounds while Jim Justen lead with the most defensive rebounds, snaring 11. John Moss made the most assists with 8. (An assist is awarded when a man passes the ball to the man that scores. Often times this is harder than the actual scoring). Defensively the Warriors used a man-to-man and zone defenses which stopped a poor shooting team with totals of-7-6-5-3 in the different quarters. It therefore appears that the defense improved each quaTter. Offensively the team seems to have more punch than some of the teams in the past few years. Conway, Vycital and Cajthaml hit well from out while Eichinger, Caron and Moss hit on the drive-ins. The Warriors hit 34 field goals but had only one free throw in eight attempts. We better start hitting the free throws or we will have a rough time winning the close games. • This week the Warriors will play two games; one at Grant on Friday night and Warren on Saturday night at home. This is the firet home game of the year and a'large crowd is expected to see the tough Warren team tangle with the Fighting Warriors. Warren tied McHenry last year in the North Suburban for third place. This year due to a realinement of conferences Warren Is now in the Northwest conference so the first conference game will be against our arch rivals from Woodstock Wednesday, November 27. Warren will field a veteran team as they have every member of the squad back from a good team last year. Alden Rudin, &'-4" senior, will lead the Blue Devils against the Warriors. Rudin was I the second highest scorer in the league last year and hit for 32 jmfrts in the first game of the year for Warren against Zion. We hope that the McHenry .Warrior fans will follow and help the team on to many victories this ye||\ Box Score McHenry FQ FT Pf Pta.

After a well played first quarter, in which the Warriors built up a 14 to .8 lead, the boys could not hit the hoop in the second quarter, and Wauconda managed to tie the score at half-time, 17 to 17. ^ The team started the second half with much determination and soon the score stood at 35 to 20 as the third quarter ended. Hester, Steinbach and Mike Creighton hit with accuracy during this surge by the Warriors, The Warrior reserves . played much of the last quarter and managed to battle on even terms, with Waucohda, as the final count read 43-28,. If there had to be any players of special mention they would have to be Mike Creighton, who almost ' single handedly controlled the boards, and John Steinbach who played an excellent floor game and chipped in with 17 points.

Trapping season opened last Friday, November 15, and runs till noon December 31. Trappers we have talked with report fair catches of muskrats, but Very few mink, as yet. The biggest' problem this week has been too much rain with some streams rising as much as four inches overnight. Naturally this factor renders most sets worthless. The fur market is in sad shape and prices are so low that trapping is rapidly becoming just a sport instead of a paying proposition. People ask, 'Why do fur pieces cost so much if raw pelts are worth so little?" The answer is easy to figute out. Somewhere along the way someone is making more money than they should, but it sure is not the trapper (who does most of the work). We saw a game warden's cargo through McHenry Tuesday afternoon and tied across the trunk was a six point deer. We do not know if the deer was shot or hit by a car. Some Children's Home or Old Folk's Home is in for some fine eating this winter. Panfish are biting good on small red worms and ice fishing spoons baited with weed worms. They are moving in schools now and are concentrated mostly around the weed beds and stumpy places. GENOA T H E A T R E G f n o A c i l r »v • s r c \ • •• BRowtuny HSStl FRI.-SAT.

SERVICE NEWS The growth in Boy Scouting in this area over the past few years has been at such an increase as to warrant several improvements that will assure Scout units' efficient and rapid service. One of these improvements was the recent creation of service areas set up by the commissioner staff, under the direction of Ben G. Phelps, district commissioner of the Kishwaukee district. The Kishwaukee district of the Blackhawk Area council consists of Boone and McHenry Counties. Seven service areas have been established. Robert Fuller of McHenry is the assistant district commissioner in charge of service area number five, which consists of all of the McHenry township and the northeast portion of Greenwood township. Neighborhood commissioners in this area are Htigh Kirk, Stanley Hunt, Bob Burns and Otto Grafner. '•am ELM THEATRE WAfJOONDA, ILLINOIS Phone JAckran 6-1421 THURS.
