r'ags Four THE MCHENRY PLAINDEALEH Let's see what the local sports schedule has to offer. Friday night marks the opening of the MCHS football season as the Warriors test their ai#istrength in a non-conference « game against Wauconda. J! ' More football Saturday night as Marian High meets Aquin of ® Freeport on the McHenry * gridiron. They expect a tremendous crowd at the VFW park Sunioftball pliers play a Prolio feenefit game. Game starts at 6:45 p.m. Frank Low has promised to give us a ride over so we can drive that new car home. . VISIT TO "GOOSE1 CAPITOL" TREAT FOR SPORTSMEN Season To Open Nov. 6; Closo6 In Middle December On the football scene we find McHenry without enough seniors. but fortunately having a real good eunch of fellows showing enthusiasm and top condition. If Coach Mandli's enthusiasm and school spirit rubs off on his boys, the season should be just fine. A release from Tom Parsley. Marian Central coach reached us just this minute (press time). We predict Tom will have a strong athletic program i community called Olive Branch. With a certain crispness in the air in the first days of fall, more than one hunter'has looked skyward in anticipation of seeing that first flock of geese heading for the South. The hunting season is almost with us, and to the hunter--or even to one who is just a nature lover--there is no more beautiful sight. Every person who fits into either category mentioned above owes it to himself to some time make a trip to the "goose capitol" of the United States in southern Illinois. The Horseshoe lake area has become one of the centers of activity, in particular a little " in a couple of years. Watch for " a lot of passing in the game m Saturday night. Last week's story about "Ma" Thompson went back a long way, but some of you may remember her first barbecue stand where McHenry Recrea No other place is there a greater thrill for the hunter or nature lover, who can enjoy this fine sport from the day the goose season opens on Nov. 6 until Dec. 15.

Each year the state notifies the public, through various types of publicity, the time during which they may write for hunting permits. The fee charged for the permission to hunt in one of these state areas is nominal when one considers the many advantages offered, not to mention the experience of an opportunity to bring down a beautiful Canadian honker. We have to take games one * at a time, but have our eye on •* the invasion of Woodstock * High a week from Friday night Z at McCracken Field. Another late story, but just a note to tell you the Tie Rods will meet at Phil Bartmann's home next Monday night. Guests (16 to 22) are welcome. Have been looKuig for a story on the County League play-offs, but learn that Lee Hiller is on vacation. Crystal Lake beat the Johnsburg Tigers last Sunday, making it two in a row for the play-off championship. PICKUP-- They called it "Just rehearsing"-- after explaining that he was rushing to his wedding when arrested for speeding, the "groom" was fined $50 when the judge discovered the wedding was six months away. Food for the birds is raised through crops planted on land within the preserves. Wjhile there are some people who have the mistaken idea that these preserves are an ideal place for the slaughter of great numbers of birds, most folks realize that they are operated not only for the hunter but in the interest of farmers and of the birds themselves. Some control over the size of flocks is necessary if the farmer is not to lose untold thousands of dollars through the birds feeding in the fields. At the same time, food find water, as well as protection, is afforded many birds which would otherwise starve. Operates Other Preserves In addition to the goose shooting area, the state also operates pheasant . and duck shooting preserves throughout the state for the benefit of sportsmen. In all areas -- for geese, ducks and pheasants •-- there are 10,000 acres available. There are resting areas, too, in which no hunting is allowed. There are also privately owned goose and duck clubs in the southern Illinois area which operate on a daily fee basis, where guides are available and pits can be rented. The state, through its conservation department, deserves much credit for the manner in which its various preserves are maintained for the benefit of sportsmen. Through the small fees asked, the preserves are operated for the enjoy- MCHS FOOTBALL OPENS FRIDAY VS. WAUCONDA Juniors Will Have To I, Come Through To Fill Big Shoes That rugged exciting game of football crashes into the local sports picture tomorrow (Friday) night as the Wauconda team comes to McHenry to test the strength of Coach Paul Mandli's MCHS Warriore. The Warriors lack size, breakaway speed and experience this year, but hope to eliminate some^of these obstacles with hard work as time progresses. With four regulars from last year's squad, we are counting considerably on John Steinbach, Mike Gantert, Allen Franz and George Vergara to form the nucleus for this year's squad. In the line at center, the position is open to Keith, Peters, Tim Marshall, Jim Templemann and Bill Hintze. The man that will qualify for the job will get it. At guards, George Vergara and 0 Harry Hettermann seem to be the strongest contenders with Harry Thennes pushing hard behind them for a position. Other candidates for guard positions are John Gates, Bob Heack, Tom Cusack, Gary Francke, Bill Haupt, Walter Messel and Jim Templemann. The tackle positions are also open, except that Allen Franz is working himself into fine shape and is a first line choice thus far. Other candidates fighting for starting berths are Angelo Budasi, Frank Stetson, Jack Yegge, Bill Hintze and Butch Aguirre. At ends, Mike Gantert and Ed Samen seem to be the strongest candidates with Tom SOFTBALL NOTES runs.

These state areas are equipped with the very finest facilities for the visitor -- facilities which require a team of conscientious workmen to provide for the cleanliness and operation which provide for the utmost in recreational enjoyment for the hunter. After he receives his permit and arrives at the area, the hunter then waits for his pit number to be drawn, after which he is transported to the spot by state vehicle.' He soon finds himself in a cement enclosure with partial roof, with the decoys already in place. Arrive Early The work of the team of employees, however, has begun long before the sleepy hunter brings himself out from under the covers of the nearby lodge.
