•mm /Pig« Four PLAINDEALER , ' <J Thursday, Juro' k'titr SO I HEAR... There was a time not long ago when we covered a baseball game (either Shamrock or Johnsburg games) each Sunday throughout the Rummer. We enjoyed those g&mes thoroughly, but health reasons knocked us out of the box. Last Sunday the Tigers came to McHenry and the old urge came over us. We pulled in during the first inning, and saw two Tigers on base before we got the car parked. We had visions of a slaughter, but it settled down to a real good ball game. The Shiamroeks chose to toss a south paw at the Tigers so had Chuck Pierce serving up slow stuff to make those sluggers furnish their own power. The idea worked good until Tom Huemann got hold of one and planted it across the road beyond right field. . Then Gene Freund came in to turn in his third straight classy relief job. Gene might be the answer to the White Sox prayer. Tom Oeffling proved it pays to move around for each batter. In the third inning with 'il left handed swinger, Paul Slorenz, at bat, Tom moved tbward tenter field. That was just the spot where Paul sent a hot liner for an out. John Knox and Chuck Pierce sported the best crop of wiskers seen since the House of "David boys toured these parts. ' .Chuck hit the longest drive of the day. a home run across the road in center field. It was quite a blow. Lloyd Freund looks like he 'can go on forever. He moved to his right to spear a drive out of the air for an important J but. And a couple of times he lincorked throws to first that looked l|ke Jets >vith an extra •iiftort. . - After a great burst of speed, "Wally Frett lost a close (very '.Close!) decision at first base -In the seventh inning. We , Jiren't sure what Wally was raying when he walked to the Hbench, but hardly think he was upraising the ump for his 20-20 vision. :ri Never saw so much shirt tail ^ t r o u b l e as the p l a y e r s had "Sunday. Wondered if there is rrB material shortage. . Twas a good ball game to j^vatch. Johnsburg has a strong 3Sneup and think the Sham- -Irocks did a good job in keepping them from breaking loose .iwith a flock of runs. We were amused with the ...following signs on the wall in "the Farmers' Mill office: "When I am Right .1.' No One Remembers •&: When I am Wrong No One Forgets." AND jr.- "The hurrier I go, pj-; The behinder I get." •££". Can she bake a cherrie pie, fV'Billy boy, Billy boy? We dunr- no. But, we found that Mrs. ;.C1 arence Smith can bake a I 'grand loaf of bread. Visiting ;;In the Smith home, we could ^ih't help noticing the nice loav- . "es of fresh bread. We opened :>»i>ur mouth and went home with a loaf in it. was eatin! Man, that High school baseball stories came in too late to print last week. Sorry, but we had sent out the word on deadlines. Presses, like trains, seldom wait. The Warrior baseball season is over and the team finished in second place. The boys gave it a great try, beating Woodstock and taking a double header from Barrington. They lost to Crystal Lake in the final game and lost a chance for a tie for first place. It was a very successful season, but one in which the ball bounced the wrong way a couple of times to prevent the team from gaining the championship. And, now, let's give a for our White Sox who" backing down hill with brakes. The following will be the teams and their lineups for the season.

Against Libertyville, McHenry won 7%-2&. Gary Adams was low with a 40 and won 40-46, Bob Vaupell won 41-42. Bob Beckenbaugh won 42-44, John Rourke lost 46-45 and Jay Sayier won 44-47. Jay Sayler has earned a position on the golf team by showing some low 40 scores within the last two weeks. Last Friday Grant came to McHenry with an 8 man team. The McHenry boys beat seven boys and tied one. Winners for McHenry were Bob Vaupell, 36-50, Bob Beckenbaugh 42-50, John Rourke 44-55, Jay Sayler tied 54-54, Mike Fitzgerald 44-55, Ted Hornby 53- 65, Bill Funk 45-60, and Chris Newkirk 50-60. Tuesday Antioch lost to the McHenry team 8-2 at the McHenry, course. Gary Adams and Bob Beckenbaugh had low scores of 40 each. Both of these boys won their matches. Bob Vaupell was next lowest with a 41 and he also won. John Rourke was the only loser with 50-48. Jay Sayler won 48-59. The Mc-Henry team had a fine season this year with a 9 win 2 loss record and placed third in the district and second in the conference. The team will miss two steady performers in Gary Adams and Bob Vaupell. Gary lost only two matches all season and Bob lost three. Replacement for these two 4-year lettermen in golf will be difficult. Both boys plan to enter college this fall. Johnsburg Beats McHenry 4-2 In Good Ball Game Last Sunday the Johnsbusg Tigers defeated the McHenry Shamrocks 4-2 behind the pitching of Ted Schaefer. The batting stars for the Shamrocks were Roger Benson and Chuck Pierce with two hits each. Ray Bujak and Gene Freund had our remaining two hits. Chuck Pierce hit his third home run of the season in this game for the Shamrocks. Chuck Pierce pitched the first five and one third innings for the Shamrocks allowing four runs on four hits. Gene Freund pitched the final three and a third innings for the Shamrocks, allowing no runs on one hit. The big blow of the game was a two run homer by Tom Heumann in the sixth inning.
