Our list was a long one last week and seems equally as long this week and these are only the ones we happen to hear about. Pauly Rogers, that cute Little Leaguer who plays for the Cubs, had a broken wrist, not a sprained one as we reported last week, but that was only the beginning. He fell the following day and broke his other arm. That's quite a blow to a lad who likes to play ball. Margie (No Doze) Becker fell last Monday just before the awful storm and had to have a suture put in the back of her head. Frankie Vanek and Sharon Wagner both had to have a shot during the last week, one stepped on a rusty nail and the other was scratched by rusty fencing. Dennis Druml suffered a very bad sprain to his index finger last Sunday and was unable to play ball all week. Mrs. Baumgartener fell and suffered a broken hip and is still in the hospital. Debbie George fell and has a broken wrist. Mike (Miss America) Hamer is a victim of the mumps and will be missed by his fellow Little League teammates for a few weeks. Another Little Leaguer, Chuckie Fernstrom, is in the University of Illinois hospital for eye surgery scheduled for tomorrow. A fall from his bike after playing' in his Little League game had Robby Wohrtrade having several sutures along with chipped ribs and a concussion. We're glad to report that John Mueller and John Bernard are both out of the hospital. Jody Osman has been a victim of the measles. Bobby Hromec has been plagued by swollen glands and a bad ear infection. Virginia Hodges is now home but still can't get around too much. Helen Strandquist is in traction at Woodstock hospital af ter the automobile accident. Helen sustained a whip lash and many torn muscles and is in considerable pain. Helen's husband, Larry, and "Petey" Oakford, who were Helenas passengers, are still under doctor's care. Little Meg Oakford was also a passenger. Rich Wohnrade spent the first day of his vacation playing basketball and is spending the rest of his vacation in an uncomfortable position <lue to a badly sprained ankle. ^ We sincerely hope that each and everyone of you mentioned and all the residents we don't hear about are up and about by the time we do our column next week.

On Wednesday the Sox defeated the Braves with a 16 to 5 tally and on Thursday the Cubs had 16 runs to the Pirates 3. The week ended with the Sox beating the Tigers with a 11 to 9 score.

The Little League is to attend the Sox baseball game on August 8 and each boy who plans on attending MUST have 50c into his manager before July 20. The League will need two buses this year and the very small fee of 50c is to help cover some of the bus expense.

Each picture must be paid for in advance also to team managers, and before July 20. cellations of the Community house, please, contact Jo Rizzo at 385-2728.
