We started to tell Bob Freund that our White Sox are all set for the season, but all he can think of are those gymnasts from the north side of Chicago. From what we can gather from neWs reports, A1 Lopez has so many good pitchers that he may have to carry 13 in order not to hurt anybody's feelings. Wonder if any of theja can hit? The Cubs may be in for a big year now that they have elected one of the Kennedy boys as head coach. mint'--*. * ****** It was nice to meet the Ford Jackson family in a group this week, but sorry it had to be at their father's wake. It made us think back a few years when the hpys. were in the thick of local athletics and Mom and Dad and the whole family never missed a game. :.oyal as they were, they were always retf&r'tQ jdve credit to other -players and the opposition.

The tournament opens Monday night with the highly rated Elgin high five meeting Crystal Lake, a team that is not enjoying its usual position in the North Suburban conference.

Marian Central, with several McHenry boys in the lineup, will attract a large following in addition to the Warrior fans from-this area. The crystal ball needs little polishing to picture Marian facing Elgin High in the only game to be played Wednesday night. This would be a big order and real test for the high-scoHng Hurri canes.

WARRIORS LOSE FINAL HOME GAME TO ZION. 60-56 Coach Cliff Fulton's Warriors went down to defeat before Zion last Friday night by a score of 60-56. The win as sured Zion of a first division finish in the North Suburban Conference. The game was quickly paced from the outset as Kusch and Fino led the Warrior attack, which was countered by Eddie Moore and Clarence Smith of Zion. The Orange and Black trailed 19-15 at the end of the first quarter. John Rourke paced the Warrior second quarter attack with 5 of 6 free throws. The Warriors netted 15 points as a team during the period while Zion tallied 14. The Warriors took the lead in the game during the third stanza as Kusch and Fino each tallied six points to lead an 18 point third quarter barrage. Zion countered 14 to fall behind by a point starting the last quarter. At this stage little Eddie Moore, 5'7" Zion all-conference guard candidate, took charge as he began to hit from out deep with his long, high arching jump shots. Moore tallied 8 of his total of 21 points in the crucial last period. Smith followed Moore in the Zion attack with 16 points. Fred Kusch, Warrior center, shared scoring honors with Moore, as he chalked up 21 points, his personal high in two years of varsity ball. Joe Fino netted 16 points and hauled down 19 rebounds as he came through with a fine effort. The Warriors end conference play against Barrington next Friday at Barrington before entering tournament play the following Tuesday against Woodstock at Elgin Larkin.

Billy Marquart, who won top honors in the heavyweight division of the Rockford Golden Gloves tournament last week. In the preliminaries on Valentine's Day, Billy won a threeround unanimous decision, then moved into the semi-finals and finals on February 20, when he won two bouts the same night. In the semi-finals, he won cn a technical K.O. when the referee stopped the bout. Then came the big test against a 250-pound giant from Beloit. After a hard bout, Billy won the unanimous decision of the judges. Our local champ was Seen by many friends on TV as he was presented with a trophy awarded to the fightingest boxer in the Rockford Golden Gloves. Billy is an 18 year old, 192- pound athlete who graduated from McHS at the semester. Football was his sport in high school and he had never stepped into a ring until his entry in the Rockford tourney. Keep your eyes on this husky young boxer next year when he enters the open division with hopes of moving up in Golden Gloves competition. Little League Notes By Bill Bolger One of the most rewarding things about Little League is the renewed interest generated by the boys every spring. There is nary a vacant lot in the community that isn't converted into a "ball field" come April. The sincere dedicated work by the boys at tryout time, as they set out to "make the team" is a rewarding experience for any adult who has ever been a part of Little League. Here, in McHenry, every boy who signed up will make the team. We have eighteen teams and the managers do a good job of placing the boys on teams with other boys of similiar experience and ability. It is very important that you remember the registration date, March 21, 7 p.m. at the V.F.W. clubhouse. If for any reason, you cannot make it on that date, contact any Little League officer before hand and he will turn in your registration.card for you. After March 21, it will be too late. ' Your Little League officers are: President-Ted Pitzen; Vice-President-Al Olson; Secretary- BillBolger; Player Agent- Chuck Cuda; Treasurer-Tom Bolger; Other officers ar* Jim Larkin, Norm Knaack, Fred Meyer and Bert Harrison. McHenry Coachmen By Jim Thompson The meeting started at 7:30 p.m. and our main discussion was on our coming car show. We are trying to find another place to hold the show just in case we cannot get Blake's Garage on Route 120. Then we started to list different ways to raise money for the show. Next we talked about safety. We wish to thank the teenagers in town for attending our program. We discussed the car show which was held at McCormick Place. We are all very interested in the show. Any one wishing to join the Coachmen can do so by asking any member. One rule of ours is, "You must be 16 years old." SHOP IN MellENRY Thursday evening, March 7, marks the date for the McHenry County 4-H Federation skating party at the McHenry roller rink. All 4-H members, their families and friends are invited.

Farm Report Illinois farmers intend to farrow 974,000 sows between December 1962, and May 1963, according to a report from the Illinois Cooperative Crop Reporting Service. These farrowings would be four per cent greater than during the same period a year earlier and six per cent greater than the 1951- 60 average. ST. MARY'S EDGE ST. PATS 24-18 IN TOURNEYFINALS Irish Take Strong Lead In First Half In Battle Royal McHenry couldn't help but win the Rockford Diocesan District basketball tournament in Elgin last Sunday. Both St. Patrick's and St. Mary's grade school varsities qualified for the final battle. And what a battle it was. St. Patrick's rose to the heights and completely dominated the first half of play by leading "their cold rivals 9-2 at the quarter and 11-6 at the half. The Irish truly performed like champions that first half. However, St. Mary's was not to be denied. Using a constant man to man press, they gradually pulled past their worthy opponents, though not in a commanding fashion, to win 24- 18. Although the victors never were able to get into high gear, they did demonstrate the poise that makes champions, even when they were far behind. In the semi-finals St. Mary's titleists, playing spotty basketball then also, overcame a strong St. Joseph's of Elgin quintet, 33-25. Again the champs came from behind in the second half to seize the victory. St. Patrick's won a last second thriller from St. Thomas of Crystal Lake 27-26. This set the stage for the all-McHenry final. Members of the Elgin District Diocesan champions are: Jack Hester, Jerry Glosson, Pat Camasta, Bob Schaefer, Jim Frost, Dave Schaefer, Dave Meyer, Rich Jager, Bob Funk, Gary Schmidt, Johr\ O'Brien, Larry Smith, Tim Koleno, Frank Harrison, Roger Pawlikowski and Francis Maszone. Next Sunday St. Mary's will play the Rockford district winner at 2:15 p.m. in the second game. The winner will play for the discesan championship at 8:15 p.m. against the victor of the Freeport and Aurora district clash. The losers will vie for third place at 7 p.m. The tourney is being held in St. Edward's high school gym. St. Patrick's district finalists are: Cuda, Reinboldt, Kilday, Harris, Doherty, T h e n n e s, Wirtz, Freres, Moerschaebacher, Saunders, Foran, Stilling and Bruhn (injured). NEW WATER SUPPLY In 1962, 12 communities installed their first public water supply, making a total of 1,429 supplies coming under the provisions of the Public Water Supply Control Law, Dr. Franklin D. Yoder, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, reported. During the year, 950 water projects were approved and total value of construction works underway or completed amounted to about $90 million. Juvenile Offenders A Substantial increase in commitments of juvenile offenders during the last six months of 1962 is viewed with concern by the Illinois Youth Commission in a year-end analysis of population figures in the state correctional institutions. With the last week of December still to be counted, commitments for the second half of the year were running 26 per cent higher than during the same period in 1961. One certainly needs to give the American people a lot of credit for all these new cars on the roads nowdays.
