Anonymous Verona Kent is going to give $ur sport page weekly reports 6n the goings-on of the lady Holfers at McHenry Country Club. We invite any golf news from the men and news items from all the golf courses in the McHenry area. We were pleased to answer an invitation to go down to the Palace Recreation Tuesday night to receive a beautiful electric clock trophy. After many years of sponsoring a bowling team in the City League, our team came through with first place. Joe Wiser, Jack McCarroll, Leo Smith, Ed Peisert arid Andy McCarroll were the boys who came through with a half game lead. Never a doubt! In the county league we find that Hebron will play the Shamrocks here next Sunday While Johnsburg travels to Richmond. The Tigers were rained out again last Sunday at Dundee so must be getting real anxious to get started. Pitching generosity helped the Shamrocks beat Mandy's Of Elgin. Not much hitting on e i t h e r t e a m , b u t t h e E l g i n starter was real generous with walks. Lincoln again looked good for the Shamrocks^ but may have stayed in too long on a cold day.

McHENRY HIGH IN FIRST LOSS AT BARRINGTON Steinbach Pitches 2-Hiiier, Errors Cost The Ball Game by Ron Sm^th The Warriors suffered their first conference defeat last Friday by a score of 4-1 at the h a n d s o f t h e B a r r i n g t o n Bronchos. The loss left us with a 3-1 conference record. T h e l o s s w a s t h e s e c o n d straight heart-breaker for John Steinbach, McHenry pitcher. In the last 13 innings pitched, J o h n h a s a l l o w e d o n l y o n e earned run. We have scored only two runs during this period. The Warriors pounded out 8 hits but couldn't score in the clutch. Barrington had only two hits both in the sixth inning. The game was played under threatening weather and frequent outbreaks of drizzle. It was a scoreless pitchers' duel Until the fifth when we seored our only run off Lahti. A f t e r t w o w e r e o u t , M o s s singled, advanced to second on a walk to Steinbach, and scored on Schaefer's double. Barrington went ahead 2-1 in their half of the- fifth or. a walk, an error by our third baseman, Roti, a wild pitch, and a throwing error by the catcher, Benson. They scored their final runs off Steinbach in the sixth as Thorp singled and Restz walked. A throwing error by Roti following a double steal j)aved the way for one run and the final ru?i scored on Hendee's double to the. left, fiejd corner. All four' of these runs were 1 unearned. The Warriors set up a scoring opportunity ir. the seventh b u t c o u l d n ' t p u s h t h e r u n s across. We loaded the bases w i t h n o b o d y o u t on M o s s ' single, an error, and a walk to Schafer. Thorp then relieved Lahti and got Smith to hit into a double play and struck out Benson to end the threat. Besides the fine pitching performance turned in by Steinbach, three players shared hitting honors with 2 hits apiece. Jack Schaefer, Ron Smith, and John Moss accounted for 6 of our 8 hits. Barrington has now beaten us twice and has a .3 won and 2 lost conference record. Zion-Benton comes to town on Friday, May 9, for our second encounter with them. We lost 6-5 at Zion in a closely fought non-conference game earlier in the, season. Zion features fine hitting and excellent pitching. Box Scores: McHenry: Schaefer, SS R.

That's what the password will be from our first meeting, May 6th, 'till the end of the season. Come on gals, get on the ball. Come out and use your password often. Remember, Sam Snead once had an eleven on a hole, too. Our golf season officially opened Tuesday, with forty four "DIVOT DOLLS" bravely facing the blustering cold winds. The first attraction was a Rabbit Tournament. All desiring to play golf put names in a hat. The names were then pulled out in pairs and those two golfers were partners for the day. Their combined scores were added» and then divided by two, the result being the score for each for the hole, with the handicap for each player bein^ bandied in the same manner. This brought o u t p l a y e r s w h o , h a d n e v e r played together • before, and turned out to be a very interesting match. The winners were as follows: 1st place, Bettie Rode and Gerta Weselius; 2nd place, Sully Consago and Irene Keim; 3rd place, Ilaverne Gregory and Alice Marion. Penalties for three-putt greens, or over, stuffed the "Kitty Cat Pot" to $2.80. Familiar scenes on the links these days -- Pearl Miller scooting around on a new colorful electric cart, which she manipulates in fine fashion -- even getting* over our familiar little bridges with no trouble. Katherine Rogers tramping to and fro searching for her lost ball, finally coming to a gopher hole and deciding it must have /disappeared down the hole. Two golfers, slicing their drives into the rough* went in search of the balls. They searched for a long time without success. A dear old lady watching them with kind and sympathetic eyes, after the search had.HPJP0HC^eid-.fori_8ome time, spoke to therci. % hope I'm not interrupting, gentlemen," she said sweetly, "but would it be cheating if I told you where they are?" Next week our Accuracy Tournament will be the big attraction. See you then.

Third Straight Win In Conference Play; Claybaugh In Form jj, by Ron Smith Coach McCracken's varsity continued their dominance in conference f>lay as they defeated Dundee 5-1 at home on Tuesday, April 29. Dundee entered the game with a 2-1 record and one of the best hitting teams in the league with a .316 team „ average. A great pitching job was turned in by Tom Claybaugh in holding the Cardinals to 1 run and 5 hits. The victory enabled the Warriors to retain undisputed first jplace in the North Suburban race. - The Warriors pounded out 9 hits for their season's high thus far. The game was played in chilly weather and strong winds and was frequently halted because of blowing dust. Dundee took a 1-0 lead at the outset of the game. Fisher walked, stole second, and scored after Claybaugh threw wild on a sacrifice bunt. This completed their scoring foi*. the afternoon. We tied the game in our half of the inning when j Jack S c h a e f e r s i n g l e d a n d R o g e r Benson was safe on an error by the third baseman.' This put runners on first and second and Schaefer scored on Ron Smith's hit to right field. The winning run was scored in the second when Mike Low's hit to center drove home iRoti, who had doubled over the leftfielder's head. We added two more insUi> ance runs in the third inning. Don Bentz and Jim Peterson reached base on a single and: an error, respectively. Toni Roti singled across one run and Jack Schaefer's ground-out scored the other. Our final run came in the fifth as Roti doubled xand scored on an error by the shortstop, Fisher^ Tom Claybaugh pit^^Sr fine ball all the way. He faai wild at times, but always'.^ilphed himself out of the ^$#^.i al spots. He struck out 5 an(J walked 7.

HIGH SCHOOL GOLF TEAM LOSES FIRST MATCH TO BRONCS Last ' Tuesday Barrington came to McHenry and' beat McHenry in an 18 hole golf match 11-4. It could have been the nanje "Barrington" which caused the McHenry golf team to get the jitters. With a little more skill the tide could have turned the other way. Matt Eichinger won the first 9 holes 41-44 but lost the 2nd nine holes 44-41 to tie his opponent 65-85. Dick Smith was thef only winner with an 85- 86. Dick, was losing the 1st nine, but came back strongly the second 9 with ai 39-44 win to win 2 ppints over the 18 hole match. Gene Stilling lost 3 points by a^ score of 81-90. Dan Baldino tied Ms man the first nine, faltered on the second nine, but still managed to get 1 point to his opponent's 2, score 90-90. Gary Adams lost 3 points 83-93. Gary also was ahead at one time, but couldn't hold the lead. The next match is Thursday with Elgin.

It is not natural to get out fishing and come home shivering in the month .of May. Although these adverse conditions discourage a few fishermen, they don't seem to bother the fish a bit. ^ Fishermen on Grass Lake have reported taking some big catfish on surface lures while casting for bass. This is very unusual for fish that are supposed to be "strictly bottom feeders." Lake Geneva anglers have had some wonderful smallmouth bass fishing since May 1. Soft shell crabs or nightcrawlers are the favorite live baits. As far as lures go, you have to rely on your imagination and old favorites. Bluegill fishing is getting better with every warm day. They are biting small pdppers toward evening in places where the water is calm. The crappies are starting to spawn in the channels and the bass should be on the beds within ten days.
