McHenry, with its great growth and extensive need for planning in all directions, cannot be expected to accomplish all its aims at once. Each of us has his own interest and we cannot expect those of minor importance to come first. In the case of courts, our interest lies in the memory Of enthusiastic young folks with talent, now grown into young men and women who have quite naturally lost interest in the game. Like loyal followers of any lagging Big League baseball team, we remember better days as we wait confidently for that, time when McHenry once again will be the center of activity for players from throughout the county.

J That winding lcey you've been seeing lately on some Volkswagens is not standard equipment. It's put there by proud V>^/ owners, who*go around telling their friends they get 40 miles on one winding. That isn't quite true. The correct figure is about 32 miles (regular driving), and it requires one gallon of gas. Otherwise, the winder gives you a pretty good idea of how economical it is to keep up a VW. The Volkswagen engine in the rear is air. cooled: No water to boil over in the summer. No water to freeze in the winter. No anti-freeze. No radiator expenses. No fadiator, period. Engine friction is so low that top speed and cruising speed are one and the same. A Volkswagen can run wide-open all day long without running up a repair bill. And it uses practically no oil between changes. A Volkswagen costs including heater and defroster. Leatherette upholstery is optional, and so are white wall tires, a side view mirror and radio. Outside of that, we con't think of anything else you might want Except possibly that winding key.
