. Warriors Open Conference ' With 9-2 Victory Over Dundee • __ by Bert Hagemann For the first time in five years, the Warrior baseball team defeated a varsity squad from Dundee in baseball. The orange and black struck quick­ ly with a five run first inning, and behind the four hit pitching of senior Mike Freund coasted to a 9-2 victory. The runs in the first inning came about after one out, when Gatenby, the Dun­ dee pitcher, plunked Higgins and Janik and threw widely on a force play bunt at third, loading the bases. Chris Long walked, forcing in a run, and then Mike Freund punched a bleeder through the drawn in Cardunal infield, scoring two more runs. Don Thurlwell then pounded a deep fly to center which dropped off the center fielder's glove, scoring two more and ending the Warrior scoring for the inning. The Cards struck back for two runs in the third when Freund experienced some control trouble, but the Warriors came back in the fourth with a single tally aided by another Dundee miscue. In the fifth, Long belt­ ed a long triple to left-center and scored when the Card relay man overthrew third base to give McHenry a 7-2 lead. The orange and black wrapped up their scoring in their half of the seventh with another pair of runs On Freund's third single of the game, an error, and a run scoring a single by Rohrer. Although Freund struggled with his control throughout the con­ test, his mates did support him with some fine defensive plays in the outfield, and when in deep trouble, the Warrior right­ hander had the stuff to wiggle free. This Saturday we face our first big twin bill of the year as the rough Warhawks will journey to McCracken field to do battle. Against top flight competition such as the War- hawks pose, the Warriors will find out just how good they are. > Hope you can give us a look- see, game time is 10:30 if the weatherman cooperates.

They were Hans, Fritz, and Gretta Louise Larsen, children of Mr. and Mrs. Otto Larsen. Fritz came up to us and sang that famous Cub refrain of last year. Gretta was right in there pitchin', too. She told us about her burro and is going to give us a ride on it. We begged off on a "tomorrow afternoon" date, but won't forget. Some fine day we are going to visit those children. If s a date. • ^ gpiip $ '• • * New Crew For Coast Guard Safety Patrol On April 2, Enl William G. Humphreys Jr., relieved Chief Kent G.

Last year we heard so much about baseball fans not wanting to go into the area of White Sox Park. Heck - that's tame down there compared to Wrlg- ley Field where all hell broke loose on Tuesday. One thing about Sox park is that if you are bothered by the young hoods you can move down the line. They have plenty of empty seats. The unemployed seem to be causing most of the trouble in this country. Watching TV we saw 20 thousand protesters in one group in New York. Small- . er, but sizeable groups gath­ ered in other cities the same day. The young protesters should spend their time preparing themselves for gainful employ­ ment. And - how do they eat and travel without working? You needn't answer. As Reilly used to say, "Our head is made up." Before too long somebody is going to get tough. Any " snorts fan" who goes to a ball game to pour beer over people's heads •*. should be bounced out uncer­ emoniously and told not to come back. ANATOMY OF THE BONES Someone has said that mem­ bership in every organization is made up of four kinds of m bones: 1. There are the "Wish-1 bones" who spend their time wishing somebody else would do the work. 2. And there are the "Jaw­ bones" who do all the talking, but very little else.- 3. Next, come the "Knuckle Bones" who knock everything that everybody else does. 4. And finally, there are the "Backbones" who get under " the load and do the work.

PLAINDEALER PHOTO Notes from your Conservation Department by Bill Stanlik PG.6 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 1970 FISHING REPORT Fox river, McHenry Dam State Park. Fishing is very slow but seems to be picking up with a few crappies and walleyes being caught. Grass Lake, Chain 0*Lakes State Park. Fishing here is slow and a bit spotty with some crappies and pan fish being caught. It is a violation of the state game code to kill an eagle, hawk or owl. Under the state law you . may be fined up to 300 dollars for killing any eagle, hawk or owl. According to fed­ eral regulations, anyone con­ victed of killing an eagle may be fined up to $500 and may be sentenced to six months in jail. The Illinois Wildlife, offic­ ial publication of the Feder­ ation of Sportsmen's Clubs,has put up a $500 reward for in­ formation that will permit us to convict anyone who kills an eagle. ule of tryouts for Sunday. We are giving each group their own space each week so be sure to watch. The grapevine tells us those MCHS girls whose picture ap­ peared in the Trib this week just had no idea -- School records showed they were home sick. The picture was taken at Wrigley Field. Holy mackeral! You just can't win. The zoo keeper caught a guy stuffing five-pound rocks into a stork's beak. The man explain­ ed, "Pm father of eleven kids and I want to make sure this bird stays on the ground!" Hint For the Bait Caster: When bait casting for such fish as bass, northernpike, walleye, lake trout and muskies in areas where you may run into good sized fish, observe the follow­ ing rule: After a day of con­ tinuous casting, cut off the last eighteen inches of your line. This tip area of your line will become weakened from move­ ment against the top of your rod in a day's casting. If you hook a large fish, he is apt to break the line in the weakened area. Hint for the Spinning or Spin Caster: Nylon knots hold very well, however to make sure that they hold under all conditions simply touch the end of the knot with a lighted cigarette. This will melt the end of the nylon, forming a ball of nylon on it. The ball will prevent the knot from ever slipping. Warrior Randy Penick, a Junior, clears the bar at 5'2". This action took place at Mc­ Cracken Field as McHenry was host to Crown high school in the track meet.
