pi?" '^rV' ' 'ifVc,f>f ' PG. 6 - PLAINDEALER -WED., OCT. 9, 1968 "Mfe-i"' • - ' • For First Victory \Bert Hagemaim Victory no. 1 of this season, and thirteenth in a row over Woodstock came about this past Saturday on Woodstock's home turf by the lopsided margin of 28-6. Hie jubilant Warriors counted their first success of this season on the basis of a scrappy defense, and three Ions scoring bombs to tight end Jetry Freund. The defense, led by the fanatical rusro^ of Mike Neubauer, Paui Nitz, and Phil Owen, kept the vaunted Streak attack well in tow, while the offense exploded for its season high point total. Hie first break of the ball game came in the first half when Steve George rocketed through the Woodstock defense to block a punt attempt. Seeing only one defender available to Earl Walsh SO I HEAR At this particular writing, the World Series is rather painful for an American League fan. Matching Benny McLainwith Superman Bob Gibson may have been a mistake. And matching anybody with Lou Brock' seems to be a mismatch. Maybe McLain shouldn't have shaken off his catcher, Bill Freehan, so many times. Connie Mack used to say that pitching was 75% of the game in his day. Seems the percentage hats gone up like interest rates. Pitches over the outside corner seem to get most of the batters, but Gibson uses that high hard one very effectively. All we can say at this point is the series isn't over (Hat's about all we can say). A1 Purvey read opr recent comirtB^8 aboutjmqwlngthe Mc- Henry Golf Course fairways the first time a tractor was used. A1 remembered that we had a horse on a mower before the club bought the tractor. He goes way back« It is our foreman, John, who takes pride in putting our sports page together in neat style. Lately our little Linda (she sets {he type with deft speed and accuracy) who likes to put the page together. We may have to name two at the top of the; something like this: supervisor ---- JOHN MAKEUP ARTIST--LINDA But, those two had tetter not forget ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR --MARIE. She's the gal we have to call when in a pinch. Marie grew up with a family of sports-minded brothers and had to learn about various sports in self defense. Like many of our readers, Alfred Weingart remembers those kerosene lamps real well. Remember how those flames used to creep up too high and smudge the lamp chimneys, Al? Mrs. Roger Collins got off the "golf widow" list Sunday. Rain saved the day for her. Willard Mix and his wife paid us a visit and brought an issue of the Plaindealer printed May 1, 1913. Margaret Miller Stoffel, Willard* s cousin, had let him take the old paper. Willard used to spend his summers in the Miller home when he was a boy. Hie front page carried a story of Grandma Mixs' death. Seems she arrived in Mc Henry on the 4:45 a day earlier than expected so walked to the Miller home where Margaret was home alone. Shortly after her arrival, Grandma slumped over and never recovered consciousness. WEEKLY PERSONAL ITEMS: Miss Mabel Granger was the guest of North \Qrystal Lake Mends Sunday. George Johnson of North Crystal Lake was a McHenry caller Sunday evening. Stephen H. Freund was a business visitor at the county seat Monday morning. The Village of McHenry paid * little over $2200.00 to cover bills at the annual moetr Sports Editor ing. One of those items covered salaries and listed was:. John Walsh, police service -- $50.00. That was our fathfer, and the salary was for one month. in the ' ads we fotihd John. Stoffel had "White Petticoats, mad^of good material} trimtned with laces and embroidery, especially priced at -- 50 cents and 75 cents. If you wanted to fancy up, John had Princess slips from $1.25 way up to $1,48. Up at JohnsburgJ.C.Debrecht was selling paint through the "Brighten Up Club" slogan. M.J. Walsh advertised a "nobby" line of spring and summer shoes, had dress goods from 25 cents to 50 cents a yard, and hats for men and boys from $1.00 to $3.00 -- "bows in back." E.L. Behlke wanted to fit your horse to a harness. The West McHenry Flour and Fjped Mills (Spencer's Mil) -boosted Earjy, glswr flour. In that year of 1913 Nicholas S. Pitzen took Miss Christina Weber as his bride. Had a wedding dance at "Stubby" Smith's hall in Johnsburg. The issue carried an announcement of the annual exhibit of school work. That was a problem to us 'cause our mother was expecting to see something when she visited school. Our art work left much to be desired, but our teacher, Florence Howe Wray, insisted on a work of art the last day. When our MASTERPIECE was finished and on the board, she asked what it was. "A sled," was our answer. "You had better label it," said our dear teacher, "they might think it is an apple." Manager Schmitt announced the opening game of the baseball season -- booked the VolO All-Stars. First game 15 cents admission -- up to 25 cents thereafter. We do get carried away when one of those old papers show up. FLASH! -- John McGee wants members and prospective members of the Thursday Night Club to know that the season will open Oct. 17 at the same old stand -- the Girl's Gym, East campus school. New members welcome. Hiey get some exercise and have a bundle of fun. pick iqs the ball, George alertly threw a block which enabled onrushing Mike Nuebauer to gather up the pigskin and ramble 50 yards for the first touchdown of the game. Hie Streaks came right back and tied it tq? midway through the second quarter, but when they missed the point after, Scott Nickles successful attempt for McHenry gave the Warriors a slim 7-6 lead as the half concluded. The Warrior offense in the first half was anything but spectacular as we fumbled twice and had one aerial picked off. However, the long dormant ground game showed signs of awakening, and Warrior fans looked expectantly to the second half of action. It was in the third quarter that quarterback Don Reinboldt unloaded two scoring bombs to Jerry Freund; the first a thrilling 60 yarder on a short down and out, the second a 24 yarder over the middle. In the fourth stanza, Freund completed a fantastic day with a 77 yard touchdown romp on a a pass from Knaack; Hie reserve quarterback, also playing defense, had a long touchdown run with an interception called back because of clipping. So, in the battle for the North Suburban cellar, the Warriors have gained a reprieve, as the hungry Warhawks invade our den next week at Homecoming. Although the orange and black had a big point total, the 5-17 record on pass attempts shows we need some more work there. Hie backs managed to gain 72 yards running, with Ted Jost picking up 38 yards in 8 carries to lead all runners. The game was decided certainly by the long scoring bomb and a rock-ribbed defense. This coming encounter with the swift Norttr Chicagoans will find Mc- r , H«?nfy, gqing1 in^o copfjict^th one < of the powerhouses of the league. If some more rough edges can be worked off this week in practice, look for the Warriors to give the Warhawks the Battle of their lives. Hope you can make it for Homecoming, 1968 style, Friday night. standings; W L 1. Crystal Lake 3 0 2. Barrington 2 1 3. Dundee 2 1 4. North Chicago 1 1 5. Zion Benton 1 1 6. Libertyville 1 2 7.

Hunters Reminded of New Firearms Law Hunters are reminded that they must have a Firearm Owners Identification Card when firearms and firearm ammunition are in their possession. Manley D. Hawks, superintendent of the Firearm Owners Identification Division of the Illinois Department of Public Safety, pointed out that the law specifically allows his office 30 days to evaluate applications. Hawks said that while application blanks have been available since late April, many prospective applicants have apparently delayed sending their applications until the last possible day. Sportsmen who are still waiting to make application, Hawks said, may find they cannot buy ammunition or may even be subject to arrest simply because of their procrastination. OCR AljCRfojl Xs&.r..
