PLAINDEALER PHOTO McHenry Varsity Tennis Team McHenry varsity tennis team avenged an earlier loss to Lake Zurich by downing Lake Zurich 3-2 in a closely fought encounter on May 6. Playing an excellent opponent, Steve Hennig, of Lake Zurich in number one singles, Jim Lightner battled bravely but was beaten in two sets 3-6 and 1-6. Jim Donnelly and Leon Zelvis of McHenry then combined to win both second and third singles 6-1, 6-4 and 6-1, 6-0 respectively. Clinching the victory for McHenry was McHenry* s number one doubles team of Keith Grossich and Phil Cooper who won 6-2 and 7-5. Glenn Hannemann and Dana-Wheelock were beaten in second doubles 2-6 and 4-6. McHenry's varsity record in tennis now stands at 3 wins and 6 losses, but the record se^ms certain to improve due to the overall excellent improvement in this year's tennis squad. Other schools have been surprised to be beaten or narrowly escaped being beaten by the newly formed McHenry Tennis Team. Few would be startled to see McHenry finish surprisingly strong in their conference meet cm May 24. Support your tennis team by attending the last home meet of the year at McHenry on May 16 at 3:30 p.m. North Chicago will provide the opposition. McHENRY AT DUNDEE Rallying from losing in both first and second doubles, McHenry high school varsity tennis team dominated all three singles matches to nip Dundee 3-2 for their fourth win of the year against six losses. McHenry now stands 3 wins with 4 losses in conference meets. Jim Lightner, showing his best form of the year, edged Buckardt of Dundee in the number one singles 6-2 and 6-0. Leon Zelvis, McHenry's most consistent winner as third singles player, again easily added Bethke to his list of victims, winning 6-3 and 6-2. Clinching the victory for McHenry was second singles winner Jim Donnelly who rallied from a second set loss to edge Ahrens by scores of 6-3, 3-6, and 6-1. Both Steve Broderick and Keith Klontz in first^oubles, and Bruce Davis and Glenn Hannemann in second doubles fell victims to Dundee doubles teams by scores of 4-6, 3-6, and 2-6, 6-3, 3-6 respectively. Plan to attend the next home meet of the year when North Chicago plays McHenry, Friday, May 16 at 3:30 p.m. This will be the last home tennis meet of the year and promises to be a thriller with North Chicago winning an earlier encounter 3-2 f on their home courts.

We are pleased to have apicture and reports this week of our MCHS tennis team. Tennis went down the drain several years ago when expansion of the East Campus building was necessary. The courts gave way to the building. Tennis is a good, sportsmanlike activity that is good for men and women, boysandgirls. It tightens up the waistline. A while ago the 40 year items told of Marian Krause winning a tennis tournament. Forty years! That couldn't have been the little girl in the A1 and Barb Krause home. Or could it? Spo rts Editor .J If the wind is raw now, it will be well cooked in another month. Then see how you will like it. He plucked this one from Rough Notes: - - "Found" read a small item in the local newspaper. "Bird or hat, which flew or blew into Jones' service station. If s sort of round with green and red feathers and quills on it. If you've lost a bird or a hat, maybe we have it. Even if you haven't drive by and see it. It's worth the trip." It wasn't your column conductor. No sir! It was Joe Marsell a who was talking about the Giants beating the Cubs 11-1 with five subs in the Giant lineup. Those Giants are just a bunch of cripples. We have taken more than a little ribbing about the possibility of St. Patrick's Day abolished. They had better clear that one with Mayor Daley. Not being a hot weather fan, we like to greet people with the "Nice Day" stuff whenever the sun is shining. "Ya, but the wind is raw," is the usual reply.

The "May Marathon" is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. Saturday, May 17 and all day Sunday, May 18. by Bert Hagemann The Warriors played the $64,000 giveaway last Friday on McCracken field. Hie orange and black allowed Larkin to tally seven unearned runs in the contest to hand the decision to the highly touted squad from Elgin Larkin high school. Hie Warriors backed their pitchers with six fielding miscues and a listless effort defensively to hand the Larkin squad their eighth win of this baseball season. McHenry broke on top with a "three run burst in the first inning, highlighted by run scoring singles by George and Mike Freund as we staked Steve Thompson to a lead which was to be relinquished in the third frame. Thompson, making his first appearance of the spring, was quite effective with his ala Marichal kick until the third when the Warrior defense let in four unearned runs to give Larkin a 4-3 edge.Larkin added another unearned tally in the sixth off Mike Carlson, but the • Warriors forged a tie in their half of the inning on Steve Rohrer's long triple and John Smith's run scoring single up the middle. Mike Freund was the victim of his mate's collapse in the final inning, however, as once again the gates were opened and two tainted tallies were marked up on the new Warrior scoreboard. This was by far our worst defensive effort of the year, following on the heels of some games where we played air tight cm the field. Our next home contest is next Tuesday against Crystal Lake, and then Friday to wrap up the season against Dundee. Why not get out and see the second place Warriors as they wrap up their 1969 season?
