Sik:. 1-ftAINDEALER-AUG. 24, 1967 One of McHenry's real Old Timers, Martin Smith, was in for a visit and we covered a lot of ground. Martin has been a resident of St. Louis for many years so has become a Cardinal baseball fan all the way. (X course, we got in a few Words about the greatness of our White Sox, but couldnt keep Martin on that subject too long. Martin was quite a baseball promoter in McHenry way back when droves of fans turned out for Sunday afternoon games at the old driving park, now known as Wattles' Subdivision. Fans went ^to the games on Sunday, then talked baseball all week in anticipation of the next game. There were no televisions to distract the fans from local games. Yep. We had quite a visit with Martin, but what we dicbt know until later was that he informed our office help in the outer office, on his way out, that he had converted yours truly to the Cubs. What an awful thougte! ^fter Boston's star, Conigliaro, got beaned last week, it ijnade us think they had better make batting helmets that coyer the head like a football helmet. Even onebeaningayear is too much. There was a time when baseball players considered helmets as sissy stuff. We haven't seen many sissies on the football field and they accept the helmets as standard equipment. Baseball games would be played in less than two hours if players all hustled like Walter Williams, the gay they ***11 "No-Neck." He tears in from the outfield after the third outand gets to the bench before the inGelders arrive.

His only trouble was that he was fond of the little drop, and we don't mean green tea.

Leo Hartog, Walt Vlatvsky, and Curt George, who form the board for the Wonder Lake Mustangs, devote many hours every week to the development and promotion of their team. The Crystal Lake Bombers have Tony May as their manager and coach and the newest of the group are the McHenry Blues under the direction of Bill Thomas. The Mustangs have green and white as their colors, the Bombers have red and white and the Blues have light and dark blue. They are all teams to be proud of as they present a good show whenever they play a match. BIG RESPONSE Less than three months ago an article was printed asking if anyone was interested in soccer to please call Leo Hartog in Wonder Lake. Calls came in by the dozen. It seemed there were many who were interested and wanted to do ust 29th. Pick up your tickets for this fun day so that you and sign up for a tee time. Looks like it will be bigger and better than ever this year! Be sure to scrounge around and come up with a crazy, crazy hat to be worn at the cocktail bar before dinner and judged at that time.
