\ Page Four THE McHENRY PLAINDE ALER Thursday, May 24. 1962 SO I HEAR... M,cHenry high school athletes felt like the rug had been pulled out from under them this week when it was learned .that a football player" and wrestler were ineligible because of transfer rules and spcrts participation beyond the limit of eight semesters. We have a separate story on the events that brought sadness to the school. Championships have been forfeited, but those of us who followed the boys closely will never think of* them as anything but champs. The boys who innobe named on this pa^eAjjkVe feel they need a boost "at this time. They had what it took in hard battles. We want -them to continue to show their mettle. MCHS FORFEITS CHAMPIONSHIPS IN TWOSPORTS Voluntary Action Follows Discovery Of Ineligibility What seems at the moment as the greatest shock of a lifetime hit athletes, coaches, the student body and all those connected with our local high school this week when it was learned that football and cently broke the rules are not j wrestling cttlamplonships were :oing We knew that William Gleason of the Chicago Herald American is a great sports writer, but had no idea of his great ability as a speaker until we heard him last Sunday night at the Marian ^Central sports banquet. There was humor in Gleason's early remarks and plenty of punch as he led up to serious thoughts, with depth of character, that linger long after the applause has faded away. And, oh -- the stories he lold about those Cubs! Pred Meyer, who toastmastered\the prograrri, remarked: "Bet you would have been glad to have bought tickets for Herb and Junior if you had only known." It was good to see . Tony Rcskie and Mel Stuessy and their wives at the banquet. Both of these men have contributed greatly toward the healthy, wholesome develop-^ ment of young people. "Stuess" (one of the best and roughest of athletes) recalled the days when Woodstock used to consider a basketball game with McHenry as merely practice. We remembered -- too well! McHenry athletes, McHenry cheerleaders and a McHenry crowd were much in evidence at the Marian banquet. Feeling seems to run high that McHenry's Shamrocks will win a lot of ball games this year. Their big test comes next Sunday when the Tigers of Johnsburg come to McHenry. These two teams are tied for first place in the McHenry County League so something has to give. forfeited because two ineligi ble athletes participated in football and wrestling during the current school year. The Plaindealer sports department has been advised by the school authorities that action "was strictly on the part of the local school, not as a result of any other school filing a protest. It has also been established that the coaches had no 'knowledge of the rule infraction and did not have the slightest inkling of conditions that came to light this week^ It happened this way. One of the football 'players was checking his credits as he made plans for college entrance. This boy showed his innocence of any intentional infraction of rules by stating that he had some credits from another school before transferring to McHenry High. The transcript was checked and a clerical error discovered. Illinois high school rules made the player a fifth year student. A meeting of the football team followed and the discovery explained. It was then that a boy from the wrestling team volunteered similar information and as&ed if the same rule applied. The school immediately notified the Illinois Athletic Association and sent ietters to other schools in the conference. Officially, the hard earned football and wrestling championships are forfeited to Palatine. Unofficially, the athletes and their staunch followers feel that the championships belong to McHenry. Who is to blame for this disheartening, revoltin' development? Your sports department is certain that neither the athletes nor those who handled the records had any knowledge or intention of breaking rules. It is. hard to take, fellows, but please continue to conduct yourselves as champs. PAUL ARTHUR WINSTON Pictured above is Paul Arthur Winston, 10, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul R. Winston, Lakemoor, with a 14 lb. channel cat he caught in the Fox River just no.rth of the old bridge. Shortly after Ihis picture was taken he also caught a 12 lb. cat. He uses Shad for bait. Paul is a student at Edgebrook school.

The 1962 sailing season started with the Chinook Series and had eleven starting boats in the first race. An old friend of Pistakee Yacht Club, Jim Laughlin of Powers Lake, sailing R-18, romped off with first place. Jim seems to make a habit of sailing first place. He won the 1961 Chinook Series at Pistakee. Don Looze, sailing. Y-lll, and Norm Reese, sailing Y-27, also sailed their usual good race; Don taking second place and Norm third place. So, fellas and gals, the yachts are off and running and you again have a season of great sport ahead of you. The competition will be keen with several new C's and two new S's being welcomed into our fleet. Here's hoping you have a season of fair weather and pleasant winds. Patterns and fashion magazines are a fairly recent development, largely since the Civil War. Before that time, style-conscious women bought fashion dolls, whose up-to-theminute attire was the very latest in style, and used these as patterns for any size dress (es) they wanted. PONY LEAGUE Sunday, June".17th, at 1:00 p.m. is opening day for McHenry Pony League. Earl Walsh is the M.C. for the program. He will introduce the officers and the managers and Mayor Doherty, who will throw out the ball. The V.F.W. Post Color Guard will present the WARRIORS WIN DISTRICT TITLE IN BASEBALL Paul Morenz Hurls Second No-Hitter To Beat grayslake The Warriors took both gajnes of their tournament to b e c o m e d i s t r i c t b a s e b a l l champs. They went to Ingleside May 15 and won a decisive victory over Grayslake, 10-0. Paul Morenz pitched the second no'-hitter of this year as he only allowed one man to get on base. He walked that •one batter. Nevertheless, he still faced the minimum of 21 hatters because the infield turned in a neat double-play to clear the bases. The. play went from third to second to first. 4 McHenry had the game from the start as they scored in the ; first and in every inning after-' ! ward except the fifth. The McHenry hitting attack, along with Grayslake's faulty fielding, gave the victory to a deserving Morenz. The Warriors had twelve hits and Grayslake had a far-too-many seven errors, to say the least. In the second game, which was played on the following day at the same place, Bill DeCicco came through with a fivej-.hitter only to have his shutout ruined in the last of the seventh. Grant broke tfie shutout by scoring two runs on a double and two singles. McHenry scored one run in each of the second^ third, fourth, sixth, and seventh innings. In the second, Paul Morenz's homer accounted for the run. A triple bv Harry May, followed by a single by Ted Freund brought in the second run. An error after a hit and a sacrifice, scored the third run. McHenry scored their fourth run on.a double, a sac- j rifice, and a timely single by Tim Fai'r. Harry May opened the seventh with a single and was sacrificed to second. An out later he scored when the third baseman threw the ball wild to the first baseman. By winning this game and the" one before it, McHenry will travgl to North Chicago for the regional toarnament. The War- (jqors j&vill play Mundelein in the first, game, and if they a r e v i c t o r i o u s , w i l l t a k e on North Chicago themselves.
