At the Silver Sluggers School, every boy, regardless of his ability, gets the equal a t t e n t i o n , i n s t r u c t i o n a n d chance to play in "intra-squad" games. All of .baseball's fundamentals, as well as the game's finer points, are thoroughly covered by the Braves scout - instructors for benefit of both those boys who are just beginning to play the game and for tho$6 who have been active in >b«Mball. All players, 18 to 21, are eligible for the Morning Star- Braves Baseball School, with the exception of high school players whose school year is not yet completed or whose current high school baseball season not concluded by June 10. Junior Legion athletes have a "blanket" release from the State Legion Baseball Commissioner, Robert Beltrone, Appleton, to participate in the 'School, but are urged to advise their team manager or coach that they will take part in the school. Athletes still eligible for WIAA participation are welcome to attend the school, but will not be eligible for the all-star honors.

Events will get underway at 9:30 a.m. at Glidden field on the campus of Northern Illinois university, with the DeKalb Jaycees acting as hosts to the visiting athletes. Spectators will lie.welcome to attend. First place winners in each track and field event at the meet will qualify for an expensejpaid trip to the State Jamboree at Bloomington-Normal, August 22-24. as the guests of Uie Illinois Youth Commission. • More than 150 towns are participating in the statewide youth fitness program this year, according to the Youth Commission, which sponsors the Jamboree along with the Illinois Junior Chamber of Commerce. Six other sectionals are being held this weekend: at Sterling. Evanston, Oak Lawn, Ceiro Gordo, Carlinville. and Metropolis. Similar meets were held last week at Chicago, Mattoon, Petersburg, and Cah- (Skifl, and the concluding elimination meet before the finals will be held next week at Pekin. Towns to be represented in !he 'DeKalb sectional are: Aurora, Batavia, Belvidere, Byron, Crystal Lake, DeKalb, Elgin, Genoa, Marengo, McHenry, Mount Morris, North Aurora, Rochelie. Rockford, St. Charles, and Sycamore. All children competing are winners of first place honors in Around this time every year most of the members that play glof shine up their clubs, pick up the biggest handicap they can find and go out after the scalp of last year's Club Champion. This year it was "Beat Ed Buss Day," and although everyone except Ed used their full handicap, he came through with a fine 70, allowing only 16 players to get past him. They were: R. Johnson, 63; J. Thies, 65; E. Brown, 68; J. Caldwell, 68; A. Jackson, 68; P. Rizzo, 68; D. Wever, 68; P. Baker, 69; M. Hoffman, 69; B. Peisert, 69, H. Sayner, 69; E. Seepe, 69; and J. Varese, 69. Game of the week certainly should go to B. Newkirk, a 17 handicap member, who shook up his opponent in the President's tournament. Rieke, with a 79. Nice game, Bob. Another good round of golf was shot by none other than "Mickey the Mope," who gave me a note saying he beat two "Minnie the Mips" by shooting a 74 and using his putter only 21 times. That's a great game, but I think this golfer is seeing too many of those Walt Disney pictures he shows at the theatre. The 70 shooters this week were: E. Buss, 73; L. Consago, 74; D. Rosing, 76; F. Johnson, 77; A. Jackson, 78; R. Johnson, 78; P. Overton, 78; J. Busscher, 78; F. Rourke, 79; The winner in the third round of the President's Tournament were: Class A: Buss over Jackson; Gutzman over Nellis; Schaefer over Dixon; F. Johnson over H. Sayner; Class B. Harpling over Baker; Newkirk over Rieke; Beckenbaugh over Donnelly; and Evans over Falcon. Last week we stated that our first All Star game would be July 27th. Due to a Canadian team coming down, our game has been pushed up to this coming Saturday, July 20th. We realize this is very short notice for many of you.

When I was ten years old, my prized possession was a canoe. It was already older than I was when I bought it. Yet the 16 footer with its crazed enamel, flaked here and there down to the canvas, represented nearly an entire vacation period spent mowing lawns. The next summer I practically lived on the water. I took several weeklong camp ing trips, paddled nearly daily with a couple of my buddies o;?' to a secret island for picnio and all-day swimming sessioi Then my water world collapse ed around me for some skunk stole my canoe. I never recovered it and to this day I think the lowest form of stealing, even lower than pilfering poor boxes, is boat and motor thievery. The theft of marine equipment. particularly smaller cutboard motors and boats, is becoming as prevalent as automobile larceny. The easiest mark for the marine thief is the boat tied to a mooring off shore. Unless the owner has taken precautions, the thief unties the mooring, sets the boat adrift and moves off to a reasonable distance to see if the untethered target ^ >•» * < v* has aroused the attention of anyone on shore. If not, the rest of the job is simple. He tows away the boat, removes the motor and any other portable gear of value and moves on to the next victim. Use a section of chain permanently secured to the pickup ring on your mooring buoy. Padlock the chain to the towing eye of your boat. Keep boat cabins locked when you aren't aboard. The outboarder should buy one of the patented locks that fit over the screw clamps of the motor bracket. Nothing short of cutting away the transom or hack sawjng the bracket will pry loose the motor. Owners of electric starting outboards or inboards should not leave ignition keys in locks. Some outboard cwners remove a spark plug or two. This has its drawbacks as moisture can get into the cylinders and cause damage. The idea is sound, however. I know an owner who makes a practice of pulling out the good spark plugs and replacing them with old ones from which he has snapped the electrodes. Register your new motor and boat as soon as you buy them. Keep a record of the serial numbers. To foil the thief, scratch the number in an obscure spot on the motor's powerhead and scribe the boat serial in a secret spot under a section of rub rail or under the deck or a seat. It may help to identify your equipment if it should be swiped and the thief removes the more obvious manufacturer's serial plates.
