Nelson L. Davis. We often | met him at Wattles Drug Store when the "African Druggist" was in his prime. A trip to the ¥ West McHenry State Bank was always followed by a visit to Gienny*s where words of wis- ? «fom flowed freely. Those were the good old days Coach Duffy Dougherty:' "My only feeling about sup- | erstitions is that it is unlucky fftp be behind at the end of the |game". • || Hiat was a hard blow to the p ChicagoBears when GayleSaypt^ s was carried from the field & last Sunday with a twisted knee* Sports Editor .J Sayers Has to rate with Red Grange and all the greatest ball carriers in the history of football. Running interference forGayle was a tough job. Even his teammates didn't know which way he was going. Trying to de-emphasize injuries in football is useless. There are far too many. Knee injuries seem to be the worst. Players are taught to hit hard, but when a ball carrier getsthe old one-two tackle he doesn't have a prayer. Maybe somebody can invent a flexible brace to keep knees from getting the twist. We have noticed the great Bart Starr on the seat of his bloomers a lot this year. Last Sunday they really knocked him silly. Maybe you should raise your boy to be a lineman. Itfs rough in there, but injuries are fewer. i?.'1 • /->- " ...-'i' Hie McHenry cross country squad met a minor Waterloo down at Champaign a week ago. Running in the state cross country meet for the first time, the thinclads finished in the middle of the pack with a total of 488 points and ah 18th place finish. York, a perennial state and suburban power, won the trophy with a team total of 121, followed by powerful Evanston with 129 points. * y As usual, the Warrior runners were bunched close together, with Brad Pictor leading the way with an 84th place A White Albino Bullhead? iremember^ •Y THK €>U> TIMER % 0m r, r~i , * By Bert Hagemaim ill®!: Va-;y7 .

Other Warrior runners were Dennis Roby in 129th, and Don Schubert, who was ill, in 200th. A positive aspect of the race is that it gave the squad something to think about for next year. Most of this years fine team wili return, bolstered by a talent frosh - soph squad, and the Warriors now have a taste of success which should stand them in good stead in the future. Tough competition such as the orange and black ran against is runners should now have an idea of what to work towards for next -season. There is no doubtthatif this group of hustlers work hard next summer and fall that'they, will once again make the trip downstate. Although Coach Don Seaton feels the team could have run better, it is certainly no disgrace to accomplish what the Warriors did this season. We will be anxiously waiting for another go at all the marbles next year, let's hope the harriers keep this goal in sight for the next nine months.

But a white bullhead? * ? ilifel Behrends of Pekin caught a white one1 while fishing at the Spring Lake Conservation Area in Tazewell County" near Manito on Oct. 11.

I was prettyi small, but I recall die hard things and the gbod things of the life we had there. The winters were pretty severe and though we would have shoes* and socks and "overshoes", thej cold would bite through and we would stomp our feet and' keep them moving. The snow^ banks were high, and when the* wind blew the blizzards were sovage., • y,r ; - . . ' -7 Even die areia around fte cookstove didn't really warm to. well. When, the wind died andthings were .calm, you could step out the door and the, whole earth would crack and creak as if it would split open1 . from the cold. , - f I remember. thotigh, going, to the summer "nouse to make; ice cream. As we crunched across the snow the moon' made silvery lines across the brim of die hills and the coyotes could be seen on the horizon. Their howls sent chills up and down my spine. Spring; ccaaim e slow audit was thrilling. The gentle hills Si so turned softly green and we waited impatiently to gather the lovely crocuses that nestled and blushed against the ground. As the winds grew warm, the fields dried and the crops were planted. The huge teams of workhorses looked so werful to me. I remember the tuge tractor with the steel wheels that had spikes in them for traction. It would crawl and belch along and we really gave it a wide berth.
