Angelo, Dabiero, Rifle general manager, has decided to return as an active player for the Lake County Rifles. Dabiero a Rifle since the club's inception in 1965, made a delayed decision to play. The Notre Dame All-American will divide his time between the Rifle front office and will return to his hold position at flanker back. Dabiero was an All-state high school played at Donora, Pa., in 1958. In 1962, he was voted to the Coach's All-American team. He concluded his college career by playing in the Shriner* s East-West game, AH - American game, on the College All Stars in 1962. In 1967, Arigie led the Central States Football League in scoring with 12 touchdowns for a 78 point total. The presence of Dabiero, along with Warren Nicholas should give the Rifles one of the most potent passing attacks in the Central State Football League. Lew Flinn, veteran Rifle quarterback was one individual who was happy over the return of Dabiero. "Angle, beyond a doubt, is one of the most accomplisheji receivers In the lea* gue". Asked why he was returning as an active player, Dabiero said "Although running the club front the front office is a fUlltime job, I feel that I still can make a contribution to the club as a player. Pve been working out with the squad just to stay in good physical condition and I feel that Pll be ready for the August 10 Shrine game". Dabiero will also assist head coach Gene Cichowski by coaching Rifle receivers. Shop In Mctienry Sports Editors is that the convention hall looks like New Years Eve. .r.

BOTH SIDES -- A portion of Teenage League Softball news was omitted this week unintentionally. Here's a tip to Jerry G., the contributor. We have been preaching in this column for several weeks not to write on both sides of the sheet. That's newspaper business!! A friend of many years, Clyde Carr, was pulling our legs the other night when he asked, "Don't you write for the Plaindealer anymore?" When we expressed great concern that he wasn't one of our readers, he replied, "I thought you quit -- never see anything about the White Sox." So he had a good laugh. Instead of "Grapefruit John" it is now "Cucumber John" in Ye Olde Plaindealer. This week he presented us with a big cucumber, said to have been shipped from Texas. It was large, but we thought it hardly large enough to meet Texas standards. John explained that the real large ones grown in Texas are far to big for shipment. (\Vbat John doesn't know is that a little bird told us that the gift was grown in his fellow worker's garden -- It is Dick Sagers who has the garden.) No matter how we slice it, it just ain't grapefruit. ROUND THE RIDGE... The "Silverton", a scheduled narrow guage passenger train between Durango and Silverton in Southwestern Colorado, threads its way through the spectacular canon of the Animas River. Teenage Softball By Jerry G. Editors note: This portion of a report was inadvertantly omitted this week. The Bakery will have their hands full meeting the S.A.C. in the first round if they click together as a team. Johnsburg, the champs, have some trouble with their bats, but not their hands. This team matches or may even be considered the toughest defensive team that has ever beqn in the league. On an average, during their fourteen games, the Burgers allowed a total of four runs. As the saying goes the rest of the teams couldn't score enough runs against Johnsburg for their season's record was 14-0. The Bakery, the defending playoff champs for the past two seasons, should be the pick4 to defend their title. During the'. season the Bakery played only well enough to win. They got off to a slow start and could never get back to last season's form. A word to get the Bakers on their feet is a quote from fellow player DaveSchaefer, "Remember, fellows, the playoffs is where the marbles are." He's Seen The Light! Potter Winner In Genoa City Racing Event Claude Potter of Genoa City just kept racing along and eventually found himself in the lead of the 30 lap modified feature race at the Rockford Speedway and then held off repeated char- . ges of Jim Sullivan of Antioch and finished less than a car length ahead. It was Potters first feature win at Rockford and his fourth of the season in IR competition. Potter, who had trouble at this same track on the previous Friday night when a radiator hose on his car broke sending water onto the track and causing him to skid into the wall putting his car out for the night, was able to see many other cars have trouble in the feature race as he won. The nights fastest qualifier, Billy Goeden, blew a head gas ket on the 16th lap of the feature and was out. Johnny Reimer, point leader at Rockford, was in the lead on the 20th lap when his car dropped out with a broken ring gear in the rear end. Whitey Harris then inherited the lead but was out on the 24th lap when his' engine turned a bearing and seized up. This was the point that Potter took over and won with Sullivan ahead of Bill Bohn; Denny McKay; A1 Schill; Ken Hanson; Ray Dobbs; Roger lies and then Harris. The trophy dash was won by Jim Sullivan ahead of Goeden and Harris. It marked the first time in six trips to the Rockford Speedway that Sullivan had not run into trouble before the racing started. Ten lap heat winners were Dobbs, Harris and Reimer.The Rockford Speedway announced a special 50 lap feature for Labor Day Afternoon for the modfieds. On August 4th there was a playoff game between the Braves and the Tigers for first place and wouldn't you know it that after winning ten games straight the Tigers up and lost to tlx Braves. This game also had tlx two best pitchers in the league once more going against eacl other. Pitching for the Braves was J. Pitzen and catching waa Pete Merkle. John allowed only three hits, one of which was a homer by C. Long, his seventh of the year, three walks and he got twelve strikeouts. Doing the pitching for the Tigers was A. Stilling and R. Wanta catching. "Air-allowed eight hits, one which was J. Pitzen's eighth homer of the year, four walks and came up with nine strikeouts. Both boys pitched great ball and got great support from their teams. Final score - Braves 5 and Tigers 1. The second game of the day was an All-Star game with the Braves manager, T. Freund, having one team, and L. Dejay having the other, but poor Tony couldn't make it two in a row. Freund All-Stars were K. Congdon, S. Curry, G. Freund, P. Merkel, J. Pitzen -- Braves -- G.

Congdon pitching and Ironman Merkle catching the second game. They allowed four hits, two were homer runs, one each by A. Stilling and S. Rohrer, three walks and got three strikeouts.

The letter continues: "Mr. Walsh is constantly talking about his White Sox, but yet we have heard that he recently was seen in Wrigley field enjoying a Cub game. Combining that with the picture enclosed, we are wondering if Mr. Walsh has FINALLY seen the light and switched to the Cubs." Ends Thurs.

Early planning is half the battle, but today it's easier than ever to locate good cabin plans. For example, a booklet published by a lumber trade association offers twelve possibilities, some large, some small. Exterior and interior views of each cabin, plus its floor plan, are sketched. Construction plans, at low cost, can be ordered out of the booklet.

Local information bureaus can tell travelers about such facilities.
