WARRIORS WIN OPENER PROM ZION 58-43 By fiene Brooke Cliff Fulton's Warriors opened the Conference season at home last Wednesday night with a 58-43 win over Zion. This is a good start for McHenry, especially since the two pre-season favorites, Woodstock and Barrington, lost their openers. Coach Fulton believes the Warriors will start slow and improve as the season progresses. With the rebounding and shooting displayed by the Warriors in their first games, they will be tough for any team if they keep their mistakes to a minimum. The game Wednesday night was a little ragged at times, but this is to be expected so early in the season. In the first quarter the teams fought on even terms until "Butch" Meyer made a couple of steals from the Zion guards and scored. Laurence, Meyer and Mayfield scored all of our points the first quarter and kept us ahead. The second quarter found more of the Warriors scoring. Smith started hitting from the outside and Newkirk made his contribution by sinking baskets after making rebounds. If the Warriors could have made more free throws the first half, they would have had a more comfortable lead than 9 points. The boys could sink only 4 of 16 free shots in the first half. The third quarter was slow for both teams. It was during the final period that the teams made their largest point production. Smith sank 9 points in the last quarter on drives and jump shots. The factors that were decisive in the Warrior victory were these: Zion's ace scorer, Pontillo, was held without a point - strong rebounding by all of the Warriors, especially Laurence, Kuseh, and Lockwood -- the fine outshooting 1 and driving of Smith --- the defensive play and hustle of Meyer and the good all-around and steady play of Mayfield and Newkirk. While we can't say the Warriors looked perfect in their victory, everyone can see the potential that is there. With experience, these boys will make us proud of their, efforts. The sophomores won their game 72 to 44.

MARIAN CENTRAL HONORS FOOTBALL MEN AT BANQUET Marian Central athletes from Woodstock, Crystal Lake, Harvard and McHenry were singled out for special honors at the annual Football Banquet presented Sunday night by the Marian Fathers Club. An overflow crowd attended the event, one in a series of school projects sponsored by the Fathers Club to support scholastic, ixtra-curricular and athletic affairs at the countywide Catholic high school. Top honor -- selection as the Most Valuable player by the varsity squad -- was accorded Pete Parker, Woodstock, son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Parker. Parker tied or broke several school scoring records and the will-o-the-wisp runner is rated a fine big college prospect by his coach, Tom Parsley. Parker was presented the Woodstock VFW's trophy as Most Valuable, an award the VFW has given annually since 1952. Previous recipients at Marian Central include Tom Harding, 1959 and 1960; Mike Purvey, 1961; and Ed Crowley, 1962. The Marian Fathers Club issued several awards to outstanding athletes, and President Robert Amore made presentations as follows: Tim Freund, Woodstock, most improved back; Pete Parker, Woodstock, most outstanding back; John Heider, Woodstock, most outstanding lineman and also best defensive lineman; and Pat Pierce, McHenry, most improved lineman. "Hall of Fame" Joe Reinert, Crystal Lake, fullback, and Ron Reckamp, Harvard end, were named by Parsley as two of the four players to be named members of the school's athletic "Hall of Fame." Photos of Reckamp, Reinert, Parker and Heider will join the illustrious gallery ol Marian's outstanding athletes in all sports. Reviewing the season. Parsley said he was pleased with Ihe team's progress and its ability to post a record of 7 wins, 1 tie and 2 losses against many schools larger than Marion. Question marks at the start included the ability to develop a line and whether Tim Murphy would be able to makethe transition from fullback to quarterback. Murphy proved a fine signal caller, an excellent runner and punter and a good passer. "This squad provided me with more thrills and excitement and yes, more disappointments than any five we've had at Marian," Parsley summarized. Perhaps the biggest disappointment was the unexpected 31-13 loss to Prospect, a team scouts had rated two-touchdowns underdogs to the Hurricanes. Also disappointing was the 6-6 tie with Mundelein. Other loss was to a strong St. Patrick eleven. Joseph Fogarty was banquet chairman. Robert Leali served Bill Oeffling, always a deadeye, hit his stride last Sunday as the Johnsburg Forester basketball team beat the visiting Woodstock Nats 91 to 64. Bill sank 14 baskets from the floor and one from the free throw line for a total of 29 points. Woodstock had the averaging percentage in sinking 23 out of 29 free throw attempts. Johnsburg ran up an early lead and used nine players in the game, all getting into the scoring column. Johnsburg FG FT TP T. Oeffling 4 0 8 B. Schmitt 1 0 2 D. Bentz 8 3 19 B. Oeffling , 14 1 29 J.

READ THE CLASSIFIEDS McHENRY THEATRE By Jack Walsh Though we have heard rumors of several local residents having killed deer during the second half of this year's season, not one seems to have been proud enough to turn-in a report or picture. Upland game hunters were up in arms, and rightly so, when they had to stay home for three days, while the deer season was on. We have heard that the pheasant season might be extended 3 days, but at this writing, are awaiting confirmation from the "hunters" who decided these issues in Springfield. Several hunters have been cited by conservation officers for carrying uncased guns in cars on public road«. If a hunter wants to get in his car and look for a new location to hunt he must first unload his shotgun and then either dismantle it, or put it irn a case. It is unlawful to carry an assembled gun in a car unless it is unloaded and encased." The Illinois Department of Conservation urges motorboat owners to check their boat registration certificates for the date of expiration. Any certificate expiring in 1963 that has not been renewed will be cancelled. There still are approximately 30.000 boats with 1963 expiration dates which have not been renewed. If these numbers.are cancelled it will be necessary for the owners to secure new numbers before the boats can be operated. If a boat owner ceases to own a boat for any reason -- saie, destruction, trade-in -- he is required to surrender his certificate to the Department of Conservation with the proper information on the back. Motorboat owners whose certificates bear 1964 expiration dates will not lose any time on their old registration by renewing early. All renewal certificates are issued for three years from the date of expiration of the existing certificate. The department will accept 1964 renewals after Jan. 1. How Can I?

Back in 1898 an outfit named the Winton Horseless Carriage Company made a two passenger ____car, by hand of course, that sold IK A.-j|| for $310 against the stiff sales resistance of the times. The first owner kept it until 1907 when ,he sold it to a dealer, who finally resold it, after much haggling, for $175. You can imagine the reluctance of the third buyer seven years later when he inquired if the asking price of $40 in eluded a horse! Well, the poor old car really depreciated right clean through the bottom of the market in 1925 -- 27 years after it was made -- when its owner had to PAY a junk dealer $15 to haul away what was left of it. Now comes the cheerful part. For 13 years it lay in the junkyard gathering dust, until one day an antique car collector bought it for $5. Just to show you what good care and reconditioning can do (as we've always said), this fellow worked on it replacing some parts and repairing others, for about ten years. In 1948. on its fiftieth birthday, he had an antique auto that was winning prizes in competitions. He turned down $5,000 for it once, but finally sold it in 1953 for around $9,- 000. That owner has it still. We haven't any 50-year-old Winton Horseless Carriages (I just ran out and checked) but we have some fine young toddlers of two and three years with a great future ahead of them.
