Marian Central Loses 18-12 Game To Boy Ian Aft Rockford Former MCHS Athlete SEPT. 28, 1967 - PLAINDEALER - SEC. J, PG. 5 Marian Central Catholic high school of Woodstock faced its first defeat of the '67 football season on Friday, Sept. 22. Hie final score was Boylan 18, Marian 12. The game was played on the Boylan Catholic gridiron in Rockford. At the end of the first half Boylan gained what was to be its final score of 18, with Marian holding 6 points. The second half was the clincher as Marian fought to overcome an already calculated defeat by Boylan. In the early minutes of the 4th quarter Marian gained a second touchdown, making the odds 18-12. MANY MCHENRY FANS Those Marian fans attending of which two bus loads left from McHenry, stood and cheered in a rallied effort to inspirit the 47 member "Cane Squad to victory in the remaining time of the 4th quarter. There soOn followed numerous inaccuracies on the part of the referees which provoked, to say the least, many a Marian player, coach and fan. Time proved fatal as the clock played out the last seconds and thus Marian lost the game. Marian's two touchdowns of the evening were made by Steve Blascovich and Greg Todey. Other praiseworthy players include John Anderson, the star quarterback, Tom Clark, Tom Byrnes, Rich Saunders, Burke Komkowske, Chuck Leight and Mike Sullivan, who will continue punting. Much will continually be expected from returning senior end : Tom Brankey, Tim Maullen, Mike Sullivan and Gary Spengel; senior centers: Tom Byrnes and Jerry Leisten; senior guards and tackles: Ray Geimer, Dennis Hurley, who was hurt in Friday's game, Tom Formanek, Tim Gummerson, Dave Pictor and Bill Pokorny; senior backs: Jim Fogarty, Mike Jamison and Jim Smith. Those players, hailing from McHenry include Rich Saunders, Burke Romkowske, Dave Pictor, and Mike Jamison. One week earlier, on Sept. .15, Marian played its first game, a non-conference one, against Belvidere Public at Belvidere. In this game Marian proved victorious with the final score 18 to 0. Touchdowns were made by Tom Clark, John Anderson and Greg Todey. TWO UNITS This year Marian has innovated the use of separate offensive and defensive units whereas previously players had spent their energies by playing on both. There are four assistants helping head coach, Tom Parsey this season. Mr. Hartlieb is the line coach while Mr. Hauser, who played on the Lake County Semi-pro Football team, the Rifles, and hails from McHenry, will coach defense with Mr. Parker. Freshman coach is Mr. Lehman.

Harriers Split In Triangular On the 21st of September, the Crystal Lake course, the McHenry thinclads split in a meet with the host school and Woodstock. The Warriors were swarmed under by the Blue Streaks, 18-43, but managed to defeat the Tigers, 20- 40. Once again Tony Wagner led the Warrior scoring with a 4th place finish, followed by Mark Smith in 8th, Dennis Roby in 11th, Tom Fuchs in 16th, and Gary Bockman in 17th. This was Smith's first meet of the year, and his high finish might well indicate better things to come for the Warriors. Pushers for the Warriors, who didn't figure in the scoring were Don Voight and Greg Borter. The tough Crystal Lake course was navigated in 10:55 by Bishop of Crystal Lake, and Wagner managed an 11:41 time for the orange and black. This meet leaves the harriers with a 2-4 record so far. On the underclass level, the bubble of being undefeated was burst, and the little Warrior ship was sunk. In a thrilling race, Brad Pictor finished 2nd to Gerrais of the host team. However, the next Warrior finisher was Glen Hampton in 8th place. The other Warriors finished further down the line, and the scores of 23-32, and 21-34 indicate that the Warriors will have to toughen iq> if they are to get back on the winning track. If possible, give these two teams a good look in their next home meet, some home folks on the course would lend them a great deal of encouragement. The varsity cross-country team went down to their third defeat of the season at the hands of a powerful team from Elgin. The Maroons, with practically 100% of their team back from last year, completely outclassed the Warrior runners. The best the Warriors could garner in their 16-45 defeat was a fifth by Tony Wagner, a 7th by Dennis Roby, and a 12th by Tom Fuchs. Coach Seaton feels that this Elgin team is by far the strongest group the Warriors have faced yet this year, and by taking five of the first six places, and 14 out of the first 17, the Maroons proved they have tremendous team depth. However, all was not gloomy on this 19th of September. The young Warriors paced by Brad Pictor, Glen Hampton, and Bruce Davis, smashed the younger Maroons, 19-41. This was Hamptons first meet, and he gave Pictor a good run for the first place honors before finishing 8 seconds behind the winner's time. Other McHenry thinclads who placed high were Wayne Smith in 6th/Tom Meyer in 7th, and Emc Weiss in 8th.

JSlUk m McCLORY REPORTS From W ashington The President and the Congress are juggling a hot potato popularly known as a "10 percent tax surcharge," Back in January, when the President delivered his budget message to the Congress, this proposal was announced originally as a "6 percent surcharge." More recently, in a special message, the President boosted the rate and revealed some glaring miscalculations in his earlier budget estimates. What irks many members of Congress is that the President lays responsibility for our fiscal dilemma at the congressional doorstep. The Congress, on the other hand, is demanding a reduction in federal expenditures - which the President alone can control. The dilemma on Capitol Hill is complicated when such free enterprisers as the National Association of Home Builders and the American Bankers as- . sociation declare that a 10 percent surcharge is fully justified. However, these and other organizations appear to be primarily interested in the welfare of their own members. They appear to feel that the Administration is determined to spend in excess of its current revenues, and that if the difference is not raised by taction the government will be competing for available credit with the banks and homebuilders and will, so to speak, "dry i£>" the money market. Fortunately, spokesman for the United States Chamber of Commerce and literally dozens of other business and taxpayer organizations have emphasized, that the solution lies in a reduction in government spending. Walter Winter, vice-president of the United States Chamber, testifying before the House Ways and Means committee, pointed out that a Treasury deficit could be financed by short-term borrowing. He stated that any resulting increase in interest rates would help the balance-of-payments problem without draining funds from savings and loan associations and other lending institutions. He called also for "immediate major cuts in nonmilitary spending." The sharpest blow to the Administration's plan was voiced recently by Senator William, Proxmire of Wisconsin, chairman of the Joint Economic committee. On the Floor of the United States Senate, he pointed out, dramatically, that the Administration could cut federal spending presently by $9- billion and avoid any increase in taxes. Even more explicitly, Senator Proxmire designated specifically where the Administration cuts could be made: (a) public works, (b) space program, (c) reduced military expenditures in Western Europe, and (d) postponement of the supersonic transport project. Although the Administration appears not to have an answer to the Senator's proposal, it is driving with headstrong determination toward this new "temporary" tax, which it has named innocuously as a "surcharge." The hot potato juggling is apt to continue for several weeks to come, with the prospect of a tax increase becoming more and more unlikely as the, debate continues. » The dilemma in the White ' fftuse is intensified by a seeming desire to placate the critics of the Vietnam war by promising more and more Great Society " goodies." Thus, the "doves" are being urged to support the tax surcharge in order to continue and, indeed, augment domestic programs. At the same time, the "hawks" are informed that the tax surcharge is fully justified in order that the war against Communist aggression may be successful. To the President, these disparate views may seem neither alarming nor inconsistent. Nevertheless, they help to explain the intense struggle between Capitol Hill andthe White House and why such an unorthodox economic philosophy may be jeopardizing our national economy. READ THE CLASSIFIEDS On a sunny afternoon about a month ago Rob Mueller, Ron Both and ex-Navyman Jerry Mueller departed Oak Harbor, Wash., for a grand tour of the Canadian Rockies and the northern USA. One hour out of Whidbey bland to the Canadian customs and the Trans-Canada Highway. The little red road runner packed with sleeping bags, a tent and a trunk full of various camping gear headed for the Fraser Vally and points east and north. Along the Fraser Valley and its many tunnels they sighted their first forest fire which was under control but smoldering. Late that evening they passed two red glows in the sky within 25 miles of each other which were two fires spreading . their destruction. British Columbia, like most of . our western states, was dry and a big tinder box. _ i tie second day found them on the approach toMt. Revelstroke National Park which was small but scenic and the first of the six Canadian parks they would visit. They proceeded to the western approach of Glacier National Park, B.C., where they paid a 2 dollar entrance fee which was good for all the parks of Canada for the season. Their cameras were loaded for shots of the snow tipped mountains and the Memorial commemorating the Transcanada Highway. Yoho National Park presented for Rob and Ron the natural bridges for climbing and picture taking among the rocky ledges under which the Emerald River churned and tumbled and carved its way to the Kicking Horse River. They followed this river and on to a gravel road much used and very worn upward to Takakkaw Falls which terminate the Daly Glacier with a crashing 160 footfall. Aquick look at the 10,000 foot Cathedral Crags and another cjimb to Riding Horse Pass into Banff Park and Alberta. Heading north along the eastern side of the Continental Divide the peaks to the west remained snow covered and to the east was a giant wall of mountains. The lakes of Banff were deep blue and looked as if they were ice cold. They stopped for lunch at Bow Lakes Resort and a bit of shade was very welcomed. After lunch and some miles they entered Jasper National Park. The first stop was the Atabaska Glacier and the ice age. Rob headed for an inspection of a ice cave while Rob did a little climbing, sliding on the ice, and some snow ball throwing in August. That evening they camped near the town of Jasper. Although they were expecting a variety of wild animals in the area they saw only one deer that day but the following two days came upon thirteen more, mostly old bucks with a few fawns now and then. They fed some of them as they posed for pictures. They took a trip on the Jasper Sky Tram to the upper terminal at 7500 feet up a swaying cable. The view was nice but the visibility was down to twenty miles due to the haze from distant fires. Fishing was not too good out not an was lost since motors were not allowed on boats in the lake they all got some rowing exercise. After three days in the park they headed south over the same road, first stop was Atabaska Falls, named by Indians years ago, Atabaska means 'Dirty Water' and dirty or not the falls were a sight to see. Further on they again stopped at the Glacier, tis time for a snowmobile trip on its ice. Back through Banff and into Kootenay Park for a look at Marble Canyon. This park terminates at Raduim Hot Springs where a two hour swim was enjoyed before finding a campsite for the night. Next morning they stopped at Roosville Mt. for customs and then to 'Going to the Sun' Highway ih the Waterton Glacier International Peace Park., where they saw forest fire number 4. Spent six hours in the park and then headed south for the US oldest park, Yellowstone. The first stop next morning was Old Faithflil and true to form it did shoot up a spray of warm water every 65 minutes. The campsite was located at West Thumb and after seeing their share of black bears and large ravens turned in for the night. With the morning and the smell of bacon Ron and Rob were eating their cereal. Flying close was what they thought was a hungry Jay bird waiting for scraps. All sat down and much to their surprise and astonishment the bird flew down, perched himself on the rim of the hot frying pan, surveyed the bacon and then picked the Igargest piece and flew to a nearby tree for his breakfast. On the morning of the 4th day, Ron was awakened by a noise and a big black hairy paw was trying to scrape something out of the closed tent. Ron rapped its paw with his fist a couple of times while Rob was yelling 'A Bear' Jerry grabbed the frying pan and the largest spoon in the tent and made the most terrifying clatter you would want to hear and the bear took off like a flash. That night they were awakened several times by rifle fire from the Rangers who were shooting the animals with hypodermic needles and hauling them off. The bears are nice to look at and draw many a chuckle but regardless of how friendly they seem they are wild. From Yellowstone south to the Grand Tetons for a couple of days of swimming and horse back riding. These mountains are the newest of the US mountains being a mere 10 million years old. The boys rented a <^abtp for the stay and the world being as small as it is Jerry ran into a friend he hadn't seen for over a year. Eastward Ho. The Black Hills were next and on the way they stopped at Devil's Tower, sighted the US first National Monument about eighty miles from its base. The Highlight of the black hills was Mt. Rushmore with the heads of four of our Dresidents carved out of the rock. Nearing the end of the trip they saw the Buttes of the south Dakota Badlands, visited a reptile garden, claiming the largest crocodile in captivity. After dinner stopped at Mitchell's Corn Palace, which is a building decorated with corn, wheat and barley. Each year the local farmers contribute thousands of bushels of crops to decorate it and each fall it is the sight of the SD festival. The next and final stop after an all night drive through tha remainder of SD, Minnesota and Iowa was Grafts home in Galena, 111. & ' They were close to home now and in a matter of hours their 4,000 mile trip would be over. Jerry thinks the road runner did a grand job without even a flat tire, but it took two full days of cleaning before it\w fit for our McHenry Shores/^ for fitting three people il MG make sure two of them kids.
