/ / Page Four THE MCHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, April 3a 1959 i Thought we had seen enough ' basketball for one year, but de- •[ cided to go down and see the . GAA All - Stars last Friday night. When we pulled up and saw all the cars, it made us wonder if the Warriors were meeting Crystal Lake in a post-season game. A mirror is a device that increases conceit or destroys confidence. --Anonymous. The girls play it hard, but rules keep the game from getting on the rough side as so often happens with the boys.

Besides this, there were 3 wild pitches and 2 stolen bases. Ironically. Hester, who started the game, struck out the side. We tied trie game in the fourth when Jim Smith singled, advanced on a sacrifice bunt by Creutz, and scored on a triple to right by Billy Oeffling. Hester flied out to end the inning. Dundee came back with another run in their half of the 4th. This time a single, a bunt sacrifice, a wild pitch, and a sacrifice fly to centerfield allowed the run to score. McHenry took a 4-3 lead in our half of the 5th inning. Schaefer got on on an error and stole second.base before to the Crystal Lake Tigers Sunday at Crystal Lake. Again the weather man didn't co-operate. It was just a little chilly. The Lakers got off to a quick start as Walter Johnson hit his first pitch for a triple over Art Jackson's head in the first inning. The Tigers came back to score two in the fourth on consecutive singles by _ Freund, Jackson and Oeffling. The Lakers tied the score in their half on a walk, a balk and singles. They scored another in the fifth, and four in the sixth to put the game on ice. The Tigers scored their third run in the eighth on singles by Freund and Jackson and a double by Oeffling.

These hustling Cardunals scored 3 more in their half of the inning to take a 6-4 lead. Two singles, 2 walks, 2 stolen bases, 2 wild pitches, a passed ball, and a balk were the highlights of another poorly played inning. Steinbach struck out the side amidst all the trouble. The Warriors came up with the tying runs in our half of the sixth. Creutz led off with a single and Sompel sent him to second with another hit.^ Oeffling then singled, driving home Creutz and Sompel scored when Dundee's centerfielder let the ball go through his legs. Oeffling went all the way to third on the p'ay. On the next play, Steinbach hit a ground-ball to third and Oeffling was called out trying to get back to the base. Everyone, including Dundee's third baseman, thought Bill was safe. It turned out that a long fly and a double by Tom Roti followed which would have driven in the winning run. The tie counts in conference play which makes our record 3-2-1 and puts us in a tie with Barrington for third place. Zion leads with 5-1 while Crystal Lake holds down second place with a 4-2 record.

Plauck struck out eighteen while walking nine. Dennie Freund had half of the Shamrocks' hits, which were three singles and a double. The final score was 9-8 as we spotted Dundee a 5-0 lead after three innings. McHenry came back with four in the fourth when Olson walked to start the inning and after the next two batters struck out Baker was safe on an error. Gough walked to fill the bases and Ron Mauer singled in our first run. Stanek's single brought in our second run and a single by Don Bentz brought in our last two runs of the game.

Grass Lake has been yielding enormous catches of bullheads lately. Many fishermen turn up their noses at the bullhead, claiming he is more trouble than he is worth. We agree that it is a good idea to take along a couple of band-alas when fishih^ for bullheads, just in case. Nexf comes the problem of peeling the hide off "old whiskers." The easiest and least hazardous method we have found is to grasp the triplespiked, little devi! by the head, placing the thumb and forefinger over his side fins. Then slice through the skin just back out. Dundee made it 7-5 in their half of the sixth. We scored another run in the seventh on two walks and a single by Stanek. We tied the game in the eighth when Freund lead off with a single and went to second on a wild pitch. Freund | ing the heads and innards soak the fish in salt water, rinse thoroughly, roll in your favorite batter and fry to a golden brown. Man, that's eating. There is a new wonder-plug on the market. It is called the Vivif and is supposed to work in any water and catch any kind of fish. The Vivif is made of scored on the third baseman's I rubber and shaped like <i minerror. Dundee scored two in the eighth to take a nine to seven lead. j We scored our last run now. This plug is advertised in almost every paper and magazine you pick up.
