PLAINDEALER PHOTOS Twenty-three enthusiastic candidates greeted new coach Ossie Rometo several weeks ago as the call went out at McHenry County college for baseball players.

The Scots will be playing their home games at Veteran's Acres in Crystal Lake. Tuesday, April 6 the Scots traveled to Cicero to take on Morton Junior college. For McHenry this was their first game while Morton already had six games under their belts. The Scots drew first blood in the first inning when Gerry Burke singled in Jim Mulvenna. This was the only time McHenry had the lead as Morton took advantage of 5 McHenry errors to score 9 runs to the Scots 5. The Scots made all 5 of their errors in the first four innings and then settled down and held Morton scoreless for the next five. The defensive play of the game occurred in the 7th inning when Gary Schmidt went deep in the hole at short stop and fired to Gerry Burke to catch the runner. Considering it was the Scots first game they played very well. They gathered 12 hits and M I I I I I I I I I I I I M I I I I M M I I I I I I I I I I I M I I I M I I I I I I I I I I I I Northern lllini Bowmen News I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I M I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I t l l l l l l i l l U I Important Northern lllini Bowmen meeting this Thur­ sday.

SPORTS EDITOR J Arnold Rauen came in to see us Saturday. He didn't bring an Easter egg, but did bring glad tidings. The Lawrence Welk show will be back next year -- • for sure. The old folks really showed 'em. Letters, telegrams and petitions swamped to TV powers who said our show was through. Never underestimate the power of aroused old folks. Larry Nimsgern (a Cub fan) came up with this name for the White Sox -- "Tanner's Fan­ ners." HOLE-IN-ONE-- Steve Fain, a member of the MCHS golf team shot a hole-in- one on the 4th, hole at Pistakee Country Club. Steve said, "You have to have luck." Sure, you have to have luck, but still have to send that drive in the direction of the cup. Hooks and slices don't bring aces. The real thrill is yours, Steve, but such good news gives us a thrill, too. We bragged too soon about not having a head cold all winter. Then some kind of a bug hit us. 'Taint funny. Watched the TV coverage of the Masters Golf Tournament with interest, but think those-% spectators on the sidelines have more confidence in those shotsff; going straight than we would have. We wouldn't put such faith in a lot of swingers we have watched. Have been led to believe that women's hats are out. Not on Easter Sunday morning. Saw a lot of them on their way to church. Should have had a camera. Our favorite sport used to be making fun of women's hats. Had to give it up when they put those narrow-brimmed beanies on men. Anyhow, the Sox got off to a great 3-game start. T.N.T.-TOMASELLO'S Thurs. Nite - Ladies Hi Games: M. Harmon -179; D. Hettermann-182; M. Debrecht-174, 223; A. Oeffling- 180; L.A. Smith-197; M.E.

All games except those designated begin at 3:30 p.m. Home Games are played at Veteran's Acres, Route 176 and Walkup Road, Cystal Lake. From Mrs. E. Poole, Greely, Colorado: With nostalgia, I re­ member winter evenings as a child. My grandparents raised us. Grandma had an old pump-type organ. Grandpa played the violin. My brother and I sat on an old quilt behind the pot bellied coal heater. I remember the tunes, such as: Turkey In The Straw, Rose of Tralee, Old Dan Tucker, and our favorite, The 7 Step. My brother and I called it Addle-Diddle-De-- and still do, when we think of it. The evenings generally ended with grandma getting a pan of earth-smelling apples from the root cellar, under the kitchen floor. And grandpa told stories of pioneer adventures. From Mrs. Willard Chambe^ Chester Depot, Vt.: What a prise to read in your columil interest concerning living grand­ children of Civil War veterpns. My father, Ralph Corliss, Jetfco, Vt., celebrated his 86th birthday recently and is the SON of a Civil war veteran. His father, Asa Cor­ liss, was a Union Army Soldier, wounded in battle. He died at the age of 91 when I was about 7 years old, but I still remember him. I was born in 1927, may be one of the youngest Civil War grandchildren, but in a country the size of ours, there must be some younger. f Midwest Dog Hunters Enjoy Field Trials Dog hunting enthusiasts from Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana and Illinois enjoyed ideal weather conditions when the German Wirehair Pointers Club of Illinois held their AKS licensed field trials at the McCullom Lake Sportsman's club grounds near Hebron, April 3 and 4.

Air traf­ fic was so heavy at Landing Zone Ham Nghi recently, that these four helicopters look as if they are stacked one atop the other. The choppers are airlifting in supplies for sup­ port forces aiding the South Vietnamese. These war-horses are the key to allied operations in Indochina.
