Pag® Four THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, August 15, 1963 Win Pony League Trophy SO I HEAR CUarfl&li* We were more than a little bit pleased on Monday afternoon to have Albin and Harry Anderson come in to say hallo. Sunday marked the twentieth annual family reunion for the John Anderson family. This group must rate as one of the most popular families in Mc- Henry's history. They are scattered about the country now, but there remains a strong bond that brings them together each year. Wally came fn to loo* for his brothers, then went out to bring Teddy in for a greeting. Ted looks like be fcasn't miwed many meals. LOCAL GOLFERS HAVE CHANCE TO BEAT GROANER CROSBY AND PLAY IN PRO-AM Harry was the dead-eye shot from far out on the basketball floor. His percentage was fabulous. Says he still has a basket in the back yard. The Andersons were a sports minded family with a world of athletic ability. We feeall a time way back when our high school basketball team was having a rough time winning. The coach was disturbed one night after losing a game and asked, "What would you do?" Our answer was, "Find everybody in school named Anderson and put him on the team." .. .. It was Marian Anderson who named this column "So I Hear" in a contest 28 years ago. And we've been Iistenin' ever since. We want to thank Bill Kamp for his coverage of Pony League activities during the past season. Bill, we will have to tell you a good one. A lady came in to our office last week and confronted us with, "How come you never have anything in the paper about Pony League," ( JVe hurried to show her the current issue, and she was a good sport about the whole deal. That's newspaper business! Our sidekick, Marie Yegge, is vacationing this week, and who should show up for work but Helene. For years she has been coming back ..liK?, the flowers to springs •-> - We give you thtf following note just M it cames to us: Earl: 8-12-63 The secretary of the CD of A bowling league would appreciate your mentioning in your column that the steak fry " and meeting Will be held at *6:30 on Wed., August 21st at Miriam Miller's house.

If they can fire a bowling ball down the alley and wrap themselves around a steak, they must be getting around under their own power. Have fun, you kids! Basketball lessons by Coach Jim Doran proved so popular in the past that they will be resumed again next week. See ad for details. Coach Doran just returned frofn summer camp work and won't have much chance to catch his breath. His qualifications as a tennis coach are well known and many are hoping he will start lessons. Wc have been told that he is helping a few boys and girls at this time. Tennis is back in Mc- Henry. DAILY PINUPS An income is the interesting thing so difficult to live within and so impossible to live without. The only bigger than a big fool is one who argues with one. Metropolitan area golfers have a chance of a lifetime to beat Bing Crosby while playing on their own favorite courses, and then play in the Pro- Am tournament that will be televised nationally. Golfers can enter their best 18-hole scores with handicaps played between now and Aug. 24. Bing will play his 18-hole round to-beat on the 24th.

Employees and relatives of 3M Company and its agencies are disqualified. Those entering the tourney must have their scores validated by the pro at the course of their choice. Scores of 18- holes or two 9-hole rounds played consecutively on the same day qualify. Only games played on regulation size courses count.

Anonymous By Bill Kamp The fiolden Shoe Manager Ed Druml of the Braves must be carrying a golden horse shoe in his hip pocket. Along with his having Dave Himpleman, who scored the most home runs, he also had Mother Nature on his side, for without her help, his Braves might have had to play off a tie with the Sox for first place. The deciding game was played against the Giants, who fought to the finish. In the fifth inning, the Braves were ahead by one run. The sixth inning started with the Giants at bat. The Giants scored the tieing run, had two men on base and two outs, whi the ump called the game beca sf of darkness. Due to this, the game reverted back to the fifth inning with the Braves emerging victorious and winning first place. Team standing at the close were as follows: 1st - Braves; 2nd - Sox; 3rd - Cards; 4th-Giants. A With the closing of our\>cason, we wish to thank Mr. Louis Swedo, all the managers and coaches for the work they have done so well. Our thanks also go to the McHenry V.F.W. who provided the field ^and f i n a n c i a l s u p p o r t , a l H u r many other friends who so willingly gave their money to see us go. And let us not forget those fine sponsors. Many, many thanks to all the boys who played so hard and filled our free hours with excitement. Never shall we forget our loyal fans who cheered us on and read this column. To climax the season we had more baseball. It all started with Mayor Doherty presenting the winning trophy to Mr. Chuck Miller who sponsored the Braves team. Our Mayor made comment to all the boys and said, "When it comes to sports, McHenry runs second to none." With this we must all agree. Mr. Miller then made the presentation of the individual trophies to each of the Braves with Manager Ed Druml introducing his boys with a comment for each. Ed thanked everyone for their support and said, "I've never worked with a finer group of men or boys." After all the boys had their awards, the fathers took their sons on for a double header. The first game was a walk away with the fathers winning 9-6. The second game put the All Stars in against the fathers and finished with the men tagging behind at 7-5. The end result was a bunch of eager boys and very tired fathers who will probably be nursing some sore muscles for the next few weeks. After the games, we all enjoyed free drinks and hot dogs, which seemed to give the boys more energy but put the fathers down to relax under the shade trees, wishing they were young again. Needless to say, a good time was had by all. We each spoke of the games past and the many to come next year. Our only hope is that our many friends are looking forward to next year as we are. See you next season?? Horses on the bleak North Atlantic islands are trained to eat fish-heads when feed runs short. Girard Justen Photo Mayor Donald P. Doherty is shown last Sunday as he presented the first place trophy to Charles J. Miller, sponsor of the Braves, top team in the Pony League season's standings. Women Golfers In Toumey At Local C.

McHenry Country Club News CORN REPORT Corn now averages six feet in height, nearly a feet taller than the 1957-61 average, and the same as 1962 for the date, according to a report from the Illinois Weekly Weather and Crop Bulletin. Nicaragua is Central America's largest and most thinly populated nation. It is about the size of Iowa, has about a million people. It was seriously considered as the location of a trans-isthmus canal, before the one at Panama was built. Most of the golfers who watched Mr. Hahn, the trick shot artist, have quietly admitted to themselves that there is no excuse for a bad game of golf. Mr. Hahn hit the ball from every conceivable position except standing on his head When you see how easy it is done, you wonder why you go through 18 holes, sweating and swearing, trying to make a good shot when all you have to do is get on your knees and hit it 200 yards. Sight of the year was Dick Hester, furiously pedaling a bicycle down Green street, turning off at the bridge, passing the second green and down number 2 fairway, trying to make his tee time. As he passed the foresome on the second green, they heard him mumbling something about his two cars and a jeep being used and all he could find for transportation was a bicycle.

Otto Kerner last week approved a bill which provides that Christopher Columbus Day, Oct. 12, shall be observed as a holiday throughout the state. The bill provides that the holiday, when it falls on a Sunday, shall be celebrated on the following Monday. Columbus discovered America on Oct. 12, 1492. Maine claims to have 10 times 'as many deer now, as during pioneer days. W/TH BOWMAN Motorboat owners should check the expiration date on their motorboat Certificate of Number. Approximately 100,- 000 certificates are due for renewal during the calendar year 1963. At present only 50,000 of these have been renewed and approximately 30,000 are delinquent. Boat owners are reminded that the fine for operating a motorboat without a valid Certificate of Number is from $10 to $100, and the Illinois Department of Conservation can cancel expired certificates. If a certificate is cancelled the boat owner must apply for a new one, and he will have to change the number on his boat hull to correspond with the new number. The 1963 dove season will begin at noon (CST) Sunday, Sept. 1, and end at sunset Nov. 9. Hunting hours are from noon (CST) until sunset every day of the season. The daily bag and possession limits have been lowered for the 1963 season.

On the first day of the season the daily limit and the possession limit are both 10. It is a violation of both state and federal regulations to take or attempt to take any migratory bird, doves included, with a rifle, handgun, or airgun, and it is a violation of state regulations to take or attempt to take any game bird or animal along, upon, or across any public right-of-way or highway.

A good basic tool kit which will take care of most minor emergencies should include the following: Water pump pliers for removing and changing spark plugs. The adjustment feature makes this a handy tool for a variety of other uses such as removing the tail nut of the lower unit for shear pin or prop changes or to loosen a stubborn gas tank cap. A blade type screwdriver for needle valve adjustment, emergency wiring problems and tightening any screws that may have worked loose. A Phillips head screwdriver -- many outboard motors use fittings requiring this special X-shaped type driver. A drift to dislodge jammed shear pins. A pair of common pliers to remove cotter pins or tab locks, i A small adjustable wrench suitable for use on fuel line fittings and for tightening loose bolts. A roll of electrician's tape for emergency wiring repairs. In addition to these tools, I would suggest a spare set cf spark plugs, pre-gapped to the manufacturer's recommended electrode opening. Most plugs are sold with the electrodes spaced at .030" or more. The gaps should be adjusted to the motor manufacturer's specification. A can of lighter fluid will serve double duty to refuel your lighter and to give you an excellent, degumming fluid for cleaning fouled spark plugs. If the lower unit of your motor is equipped with shear pins, be sure to carry a spare supply. Include a supply of - * cotter" pins and at least one spare prop nut. A jacknife can be used for skinning wiring insulation, scraping carbon deposits or cutting away a snagged fishing line from your prop assembly. A flashlight will help you pick up a mooring buoy in the dark, spot the number on a channcl marker or even locate the tools in your box. Better include a spare bulb or two for your boat's lights and a few spare fuses. A tube of lower unit grease in your tool kit will serve not only as a reminder that the lower unit needs attention from time to time, but it's also the ideal lubricant for remote controls, motor fittings and to coat your propellor shaft whenever you have occasion to remove the propeller.
