Warrior quarterbacks Steve Fain (10) and Kurt Knaack (12) receive game plan from Coach Bill Day prior to the annual soap bowl game last Friday night. The McHenry Warriors are hosts to DeKalb for a nonconference game at McCracken field tonight. PLAIN DEALER PHOTO Thinclads Beat In Initial Test, by Bert Hagemann T h e r u n n i n g W a r r i o r s brought home the first Warrior victory of the 1969-70 school year last Tuesday on the home turf with a IS-39 win over the Grant Bulldogs. Leading the or­ ange and black scoring was de­ pendable Brad Pictor with a winning time of 15:21. He was followed by three other War­ riors before the first Grant runner came in, and these were in order of finish, Keith Hut­ chinson, Glen Hampton, and Wayne Smith. Mike Freund fin­ ished the Warrior scoring with an &th place finish, followed closely by pusher Bruce Da­ vis In 9th, F.ric Weiss in 11th, Jim Sass in 12th, Fred Stark in 13th, John Oeffling in 14th, and Don Schubert in 15th. Coach Don Seaton feels that a num­ ber of runners are still not nearly in top shape even though we garnered such a lop sided win, but perhaps with a week's CORINE WILCOX TO HEAD DRIVE FOR HOSPITAL An army of teen-age volun­ teers, under the direction of Corine Wilcox, 334 N. River­ side drive, McHenry, chairman, will march In McHenry Sunday, Sept. 14 through the 21. The announcement was made by Miss Wilcox following her ac­ ceptance of the appointment by Danny Thomas, founder of St. Jude Children's Research hos­ pital. Assisting Miss Wilcox will be Sue Baur, 1210 N. Riverside drive, David Lgerstaffer, 5306 W. fountain street, Gay Ann Baecia, 413 N. Kent road, Nan­ cy Stender, 304 W. Mary lane? Clarence Justen, 1401 N. Court street, Roseanne Schlicbien, 402 Lily lane, Lynn O'Day, 1707 N. Court and Nadine Graff, 2403 S. Park Terrace. "I think the community will be pleased with the response of our young people, and I am confident that the teenagers can do the job,' said Corine. St. Jude Children's Research hospital was founded by enter­ tainer Danny Thomas to fulfill a pledge to St. Jude made in 1937. At that time Thomas was an aspiring, unemployed enter­ tainer. In desperation he- pledged to build a meaningful shrine to St. Jude, patron saint of the hopeless, if he ever found his place in life. Opened in February, 1962, St. Jude's has become unique. Here, for the first time, pe­ diatricians and biological sci­ entists combine their talents and efforts in a concerted cam­ paign to conquer the medical problems of children. more work, the Warriors will be ready when they meet Lar- kin on Tuesday and Elgin on Friday of this coming week. The little Warriors started their season also with a re­ sounding perfect score victory, 15-50. The first five Warrior Bulldogs 18-39 scorers were winner Terri Mc- Gibbon, John Seaton, John Diet­ rich, Alex Thomas, and Gregg Pickrum. So, all in all it was a great opening day for the thinclads, their next home meet is Tuesday, why not give them a look? After a couple of days away, we are back in the saddle again -- and ready to ride. The first memorandum to greet us is ' Pay your income tax." Kind of early. The in­ stallment isn't due until Mon­ day.

Maybe we should throw the rest of the mail in the waste basket. We can stand taxes, but when they hit us with that tax on cig­ ars it was going too far. Holy smokers! WEED CONTROL? Each year poisonous weeds cause nearly 2 million cases of skin poisoning and other skin irritations. American people- miss 330 thousand working days, have 3.7 million days of restricted activity and spend 50 million days In bed each year because of poisonous weeds. Survival and standard of liv­ ing depend upon how well we manipulate our environment to produce an ecological balance favorable to man. Weed control Is one of the major ecological manipulations necessary for human comfort as well as for efficient, economical crop pro­ duction. POEM WEEK CONTINUED!!?? Hey, Hey, "RED-HOTS" at Cub Games -- Don't you really eat the same? Never a "Boo" at White Sox Park? -- Figured that's where it all did start! -- Sure those Sox are really through -- Therefore a "soft sympathetic" Boo! -- Just getting started"/ Oh what shame -- 28 Games out - too late for fame! Again Yours Truly--I remain \ Ixjyal Cub Fan-All the Way! P.S. "Thisgirl" nota"Dooley" Backer. You guessed it Earl "Go-Go Green BayJ'ackers!" "Ho-Ho!" Dear Cub-Packer Fan: \t least we get a sympa­ thetic Boo. But, we don't want sympathy. We want base hits. Seem1- like sympathy should be extended to you Cub fans at this stage. There is no joy in Cubville. They should have stayed out of New York, for­ feited those games and taken a much needed rest. Those old boys are tired. Sounds like you have given up on the Cubs and turned your attention to the Packers. Keep the faith. Our wife heard Irene Hughes (the ESP girl) speak this week and learned that the Cubs will rise again to win the race. The Cubs will never beat Baltimore in the World Series, but just think of the honor of being on the same field with those Orioles. So Ho - Ho! S.I.H. * * * * * * * * Got back to McHenry and learned that two old friends had passed away. Heard first about Art Smith. Wonder how many remember the "Gro­ ceries To Your Door" inno­ vation when Art had his store on Main St. That big walk-In truck would go up and down the streets and housewives went out to pick out what they need­ ed. Art was a good man, devoted to his family. Holthuicn, Jeff Terri McGibbon, 1st place: John Seaton, 2; John Deitrlck, 3; Alex Thomas, 4; Gregg Pick­ rum, 5.

She was one of those old fashioned girls who loved to bake a cake and other tasty items. She used to bring us some of her home bakery now and then. As the saying goes, "You don't hardly find her kind no more." "Slim Jim" has to be the name for Ye Olde Plaindealer's Chief Auditor. Jim Donnellan used to be quite a chunk of a man. Whether it was worryover the White Sox or a cut in his allowance, something changed.

Woodstock has the horses this year If they can finally produce a winner under new coach Bob Bradshaw. Lib- ertyville will also be under a new coach and could sorely miss the excellent tutelage of former* mentor Bob Tunnicliff, and from there on it's a toss up for the last three spots with injuries and progress holding the keys. The Warrior backs this year could have trouble behind a green and inexperienced line. This reporter feels that this ball club will probably get much bet­ ter as the season progresses, and an early victory could do much toward accelerating this process. A real test will come this Friday night, hope you can be there to help get the War­ riors off to a flying start. Our Warriors will be cheered to victory by these charming cheerleaders posing with the receipts of five boxes collected as admission at the soap-bowl game. With all that soap we know our Warriors will fight a clean game. The cheerleaders are I.-R kneeling; Paula Monteleone, Roz Rees and Sue Kelsey.

Wonder Lake Yacht Club wel­ comes a new boat to Its fleet, bringing the number of C scows to 18. The boat is owned by Dick Bland and Lenny Guerrea. Eleven sailors braved the weather and wind on Saturday, Sept. 6. Most of the boats car­ ried extra crew weight. John Wright in W 5 finished 1st. Bob Bird in W 18 was second, and our newest sailor, Dick Bland, in R 52 finished third. But then Dick relaxed his con­ trol, in jubilation, and hit a finishing mark, thus costing him a penalty of two places. The penalty gave Bob Billingsly in W 1 third, and W 19 fourth. Another new sailor, George Tensley, was so elated to place 6th, he and his wife and son crew, in celebrating, un­ balanced the boat and they cap­ sized - (That was their way of enjoying a drink) Nothing like a good drink af­ ter the race! Sunday's race was spectacu­ lar with 17 boats at the 10:30 starting line. All the boats made a good start and there was a big jam at the first mark with the unlucky ports having toglve way to the starboards. The old master, Don Coumbe, in W 9 made it around first and took an early lead, and no one could overtake him. W 8 was a close second, W 5 third, W 18 third, W 2 fourth, W 1 fifth. Saturday, Sept. 13, our fleet goes to Browns Lake, Wis., to test their superior sailing abil­ ity in three races against the Brown Lakers. Football Season is Here . . . SUPPORT THE WARRIORS!

To those who saw the soap bowl Intra-squad contest, the following facts are evident. The Warriors do have some good size in the line this year, al­ beit quite slow, and some good looking backs. Tom Janik and Steve George impressedobser- vers with their running Friday night, and Don Thurlwell par­ ticipated in a number of tackles on defense. The Warrior pass­ ing game needs honing yet in this final week of preparation as evidenced by the fact that only a couple of pass attempts found their mark. Certainly the Warriors need to smooth var­ ious rough edges this coming week in order to start the sea­ son with a degree of success. In assessment of the rugged North Suburban, my often smeared, cracked, and cloudy crystal ball shows me the fol­ lowing finish: - Crystal Lake, 1; Barrlngton, 2; Zion Benton, 3; Woodstock, 4; Libertyville, 5; North Chi­ cago, 6; McHenry, 7; and Dun­ dee, 8. k \ V
