Page Four PLAINDEALER Thtosday, August 30* 1962 G SO I HEAR... Martin Smith, from the home of the St. Louis Cardinals, finally made his annual pilgrimage to McHenry and came in for a visit. We asked Martin to send us some more ball players like Joe Cunningham to bolster our White Sox. He promised to see what he can do. While we do not date back as far as Martin in McHenry history, we do remember very well when he managed some real topnotch baseball teams. Those were the days when everybody and his brother waited all week for the Sunday ball game. They imported some good ball players to play with the local favorites and betting ran at a merry clip. We mentioned many old timers such as "Kelly" Conway, "Bullet Joe" Miller, Walter Warner and others who have passed away. Marty Knox is one who Martin hopes to see this trip. There is nothing quite like having Old Timers call to say hello. We look forward to those calls. A couple of McHenry ball players who played on the same team way back, George Schreiner and Howard Wattles, met this summer and didn't know each other. Said Howard, "You got heavy". Said George, "You got gray". Statistics show that 76 per cent of American families own automobiles. We know. They were all in McHenry last weekend. PICKUPS -- An auction sale is where you get something for nodding. Husband: A peculiar character who buys his football tickets in June and his wile's Christmas present December 24. A friend of many years, Lester V. Adams, was called to his Maker the past week. We were always amazed at his enthusiasm, spirit, sense of humor and fair play. About 25 years ago we kept score for the Business Men's Softball League when their games were played in the city park. Les was a catcher and a good one. We had a bushel of fun at each g a m e w h e r e f r i e n d s h i p s strengthened and lasted through the years. So long, Les. You lived a long time before they got three strikes on you. On June 4, 1936, the Chicago White Sox, playing the New York Yankees in New York, accomplished some sort of record by scoring three runs without smacking the ball out of the infield. Pearson, pitching for the Yankees, passed R a d c l i f f . K r e e v i c h f a n n e d . Haas fanned. Bonura walked Piet attempted to bunt and made an infield single. Bases fil'ed. Hayes walked and Radcliff was forced home. Dykes walked and Bonura was forced home. Sewetl walked -- the fifth man to be passed -- and Piet was forced home. With three runs in and three on the bases, Pearson was derricked and Broaca succeeded him. Whitehead was out, Lazzeri to Gehrig, retiring the side. We should have such hitters today! SHAMROCKS LOSE FIRST GAME IN GENOA TOURNEY The McHenry Sham rocks travelled to Genoa, Tuesday night and lost to the host team in the AABC tournament 5-1. Fred Peterson, a Crystal Lake boy, pitched a real great game for Genoa, as he had a nohitter going until the ninth inning, when McHenry scored their only run. Peterson struck out twenty-one batters and walked only four. Jerry Sunderlage also pitched a great game for the Shamrocks, as he allowed only three hits and one earned run. The Shamrocks scored as Vic Hofer pinch-hit for Sunderlage and walked, went to s e c o n d on a w i l d p i t c h a n d scored as Ray Bujak got Mc- Henry's only hit, a good solid line drive single to right. The next tournament" game pits DeKalb against Dundee, Thursday night. The Shamrocks will play again Friday night or Saturday afternoon, depending on the outcome of Thursday's game.

A vicious circle is one in which you go round and round and end up in the middle. Why take life too seriously? You'll never get out of it alive. Outdoors By Jack Walsh Saturday, Sept. 1, is the opening day of squirrel and dove seasons. The squirrel season begins at sunrise and runs through sunset of Oct. 31, with a dailv limit of 5 and possession limit of 10. Shooting hours for mourning doves are 12 noon to sunset from Sept. 1 through Nov. 9, with the daily limit set at 12 and possession limit of 24. We dare say that it might be wise for squirrel hunters to take along a bottle of mosquito repellent. The only advise we have for dove hunters is; unless you have really been practicing a lot, take about twice as many shells as you think you will need. A recent nationwide survey ranked the dove as "the game bird most often shot at and missed." The dates of Oct. 26 through Nov. 19 have been selected by the Dlinois Department of Conservation for the duck season in Illinois. Shooting hours on the opening day will be from noon (CST) to sunset. On the remaining days of the season, shooting hours will be from sunrise to noon (CSTt. There will be a daily bag limit of two, possession limit of four ducks and a daily bag limit and possession limit "of six coots. The daily bag limit may riot include more of the following species than: (a) one mallard or one black duck; (b) two •d ducks; (c) one hooded merganser. The possession limit may not include more of the following species than: (a) two mallard or black ducks, singly or in the aggregate of both kinds; (b) two wood ducks; (c) one hooded merganser. In addition to other bag and possession limits, two scaup ducks are allowed in the daily bag limit and four scaup ducks are allowed in the possession limit. In addition to the limits on other ducks, the daily bag limit on American and red-breasted mergansers will be five with a possession limit of 10, singly or in the aggregate of both kinds. There will be a closed season on canvasback and redhead ducks. The 1962 goose season will be Oct. 20 through Nov. 19 in all counties except Alexander, Jackson, Union and Williamson, with a daily bag and possession limit of five geese, which may not include more than two Canada geese or subspecies; two whitefronted geese; or one Canada goose or subspecie and one white-fronted goose. Shooting hours will be sunrise to noon (CST) daily. The special goose season for Alexander, Jackson, Union and Williamson counties will be Nov. 5 through Dec. 18. Shooting hours will be sunrise to 3 p.m. (CST) daily, with daily bag and possession limit of five geese, which may not include more than two Canada geese or its subspecies; two white-fronted geese; or one Canada goose or subspecies and one white-fronted goose.

Kerner and Mayor Daley have proclaimed Sept. 2 to 9 Cystic Fibrosis Week in Illinois and in Chicago. This is high level recognition that this mysterious lung and digestive disease affecting children must be called to public attention. This is also Cystic Fibrosis Week in our community. A small band of communityminded men and women will ring bells and knock on doors in this area so that a number of children may hope for a normal life. Cystic fibrosis is the most common chronic pulmonary disease affecting children, a fact not fully recognized by the public at large. Footprints on the sands of time are still made with work shoes.

The Hurricanes wul field a strong backfield, the best in the school's four years, Parsley predicted, but lack, of experience at center along with a scarcity of reserves for the line will handicap the veteran backs. Marian faces Bishop Boy- Ian of Rockford at 2 p.m. on Sept. 16. The Hurricanes have a 10-game schedule with the first five games scheduled lit Marian's new field near the high school. Two state-rated teams from last year are on the card and Parsley feels this year's schedule will be the most severe test the countywide Catholic school's gridders have faced since Marian opened its doors four seasons ago. Parsley, who obtained his football experience at Crystal Lake High School and Notre Dame University, is a firm believer in sending his teams against strong competition. "It is better to battle foes and score satisfying wins over respected opponents than to romp over weak, ineffective cllubs," he declares. Last year, Marian had a 6-4 season record and played strong schools from four states -- Illinois, Iowa, Indiana and Wisconsin. St. George of Evanston, eighth-ranked last year, has been added to the 1962 card. So has Schurz of Chicago, a quarter-finalist in the Chicago Public League last season. In an effort to bolster the line, Parsley has shifted Jim Gates from tackle to center. A tackle with three years' varsity experience, Gates weighs 205 pounds. Chuck Thillman, 210-pound tackle last year, is moving to guard providing help at guard for Scotty Karas, and Dennie Forrest, 160-pound seniors who are the main returnees at this , _ position. n Backfield strength is fortified with the return of Ed Crowley to halfback. Crowley played end for two seasons. He was a regiuar halfback his freshman year, and the 185- pound senior from Crystal Lake has the power and speed to become one of the state's most outstanding high school athletes this year. , Crowley will be a favorite passing target of the two experienced quarterbacks, Bill Riley and Waliy Bowman. Riley has been a varsity regular for four years alternating with Mike Purvey at quarterback. Steve Sexton, John Corso and Joe Blenner should provide strength at halfback to team with Crowley or understudy him. To compensate for the move of Crowley from end, Parsley contemplates moving Ron Reckamp from halfback to the end spot. Ron. is, a 5' 10" junior from Harvard. Peter Parker, 160-pound junior from Woodstock, established himself as a mainstay at the other end post.
