Page Four THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday; August ^3, 1962 SO I HEAR ... Tom Burton was the happiest 11-year old boy we have seen in some time when he stopped to see us with his little beauty of a transistor radio which he won in the "WGN Junior Announcer Baseball Contest". Tom had a nice letter from Jack Quinlan and Lou Boudreau after submitting his letter on "Why I would like to announce Cub games on WGN". Of course, we aren't going to tell everybody that Tom has leanings toward the Giants ctue to his lpyalty to Charlie HiUgr Out* day was made a little brighter by reason of Tom's call. He wa? well mannered, enthusiastic and happy. What more could one ask in a boy? We hope the weather cools a bit before our high school stalwarts start football practice. For our part football is not a game for August. However the modern trend is for coaches to start early in their task of getting the boys in shape for the rugged season ahead. Had a nice letter this week from Richard B. Walsh. "Dick" has always been a great baseball fan and knew his way around big time baseball circles. He gave us great encouragement many years ago when we spent a lot of time reporting games. While "Dick" didn't mean that a person should not try to improve, his advice was "to follow your own style". Maybe people make too many mistakes trying to follow somebody else's style. If you weigh 130 pounds, why try to swing a bat like Mickey Mantel or Babe Ruth? Sometimes we wonder who sets the styles we have to follow. When they try to tell us one of those narrow brimmed hats look good on us. we look in the mirror and see our big face and chops accentuated. We don't believe 'em! We believe the mirror. The Shamrocks won their second game in the Genoa tournament, from Dixon by a score of 9-2. A big seven run second inning gave Rog Benson all the runs he needed as he coasted to his sixth victory of the year. Next Saturday, at 1:30 p.m. the- Shamrocks take on Highland Park in a semi-final game. The other game will be between Dundee and Genoa. The finals will be played Sunday. Before the flapper days of the "Gay 20's". girls wore long hair, long skirts and short finger nails That was changed. Oh, brother! HORSE SHOW -- That horse show at the H. H. Mass Quarter Horse Farm at MeCullom Lake next Sunday sounds real good. In case of rain, the indoor arena will be used. This is a regional . show, sponsored by the Illinois Quarter Horse Association. Halter classes starr at 8:00 a.m. and will continue through the performance classes, there being 29 separate events listed on the program. Looks like a real treat is in store for those who plan to attend. The Foresters who bowl at the Palace had a feast last Sunday to start building up their strength for the coming season. Of course, the ladies were invited to eat steak and build up their strength, too. The party was held at the "Pa" and Anna Thennes residence on Boone Creek. That's a great place for a party and the hospitality was great. So " were the steaks! Shamrocks Beat I SHAMROCKS LOSE Dixon In Genoa 54 BALL GAME Tournament. TQ J0HNSB(JRG Sunday, the Johnsburg Tigers defeated the McHenry Shamrocks 5-4 behind the pitching of Bill DeCicco. De- Cicco struck out seven "and walked one in recording his fifth win of the season against one defeat. Dundee defeated Harvard last Sunday 7-3 to hand Harvard their second defeat of the tournament, which is double elimination. The Shamrocks drew first blood by scoring two runs off DeCicco in the first when Ray Bujak and Dave Klapperidh started the inning off with singles, after Gene Freund struck out, Bujak came across ^ith the first run on a passed hall. After Collins was safe on an error, Benson grounded to short for the second out. Klapperich scoring from third on the play. Johnsburg cut the Shamrocks lead to 2-i in the seer ond on a walk to Dick Hiller and a single by Lee Schmitt which skipped past Vern Peterson allowing Hiller to score. The Shamrocks scored two more in the third on a walk to Dave Klapperich, a single Johnsburg cut the Shamrocks lead to 4-2 in the bottom of the third on DeCicco's hit, an error by Benson, and Huemann's long sacrifice fly. Johnsburg scored its third run in the sixth on a leadoff single by Schaefer, a walk to Huemann, a fielder's choice, and the run scoring single by Dick Hiller. The Shamrocks lead 4-3 going into the top of the seventh when, after Bujak hit a fly ball to Hiller for the first out, one of the key plays of the game took place. Dave Klap- , perich hit a long triple over Oeffling's head in left, but was out on a close play at the plate trying for a homer. It took three perfect pegs to nail Klapperich at the plate, the play went from Oeffling to Hiller to Schmitt, to Huemann for the out. Johnsburg scored two runs in the eighth to take the lead 5-4. After one out, Tom Oeffling hit a long triple to leftcenter. Hiller popped to third for the second out, then Lloyd Freund singled home Oeffling with run number four. Schmitt walked, putting runners on first and second. Harry May singled home the lead run on a line shot to left. May's hit knocked Schroeder out of the box and brought in Gene Freund. Ted Freund walked to fill the bases, but DeCicco struck out to retire the side. The Shamrocks tried to come back in the ninth when Vern Peterson lead off with a single. Bujak struck out and Jack Schaefer turned Dave Klapperich's hot grounder into a 6-4-3 game ending double play. Final score Johnsburg 5. McHenry 4.

McHenry Country Club News by John Varese The McHenry Country Club crowned its 1962 club champion and also its handicap champion last Sunday after a wild and tension filled round of golf. When the three leaders of the club championships, Art Jackson, Paul Overton and Frank Johnson, teed off for their round, the pressure was on! the lead was tied, then shifted back and forth, but when the dust, divots and sand had settled, there stood the champ! Ed Buss! Ed was eight strokes off the pace going into the final round, but he was a determined golijer and went around the course shooting a sizzling 72, beating Frank Johnson by one stroke. Frank played a great game of golf but he missed a couple of short putts which Ed did not miss and that made the difference. Congratulations, Ed, you beat some mighty fine golfers to win the championship. In the handicap championship, Jack Thies never did slow down from the pace he started last week, and although he was being hounded by Hal Nellis, he held on to come out on top with a one stroke margin to win the championship. Congratulations to you, also, Jack. Nobody can deny the fact that you have had to beat some pretty tough boys to win too, so you certainly deserve the title handicap champion. Here are the final scores in the club championship tourney Ed Buss, 304; F. Johnson, COACHMEN CLUB NAMES OFFICERS FOR COMING YEAR Monday night the members of the McHenry Coachmen Rod and Custom Club held election of officers.

DAILY PINUPS An optimist is one who feels that today is the best day since yesterday and that tomorrow could be even better. A collegc bred boy is often one culled from the flower of youth and the dough of old age. Faith without good works is woefully like a watch in the same condition. A sermon is often a lengthy talk with a whole lot of breath. In an emergency it's well to keep calm so you won't be collected. Anonymous.
