N An Appraisal Of High School Coaches And Athletes Then And Now McHenry jHockey League NOT AN EASY JOB! You have to go a long way these days to find a job as difficult as the one of the high school coach. There was a day when there was a particular and unique kind of glamor attached to the position - even if you weren't always a winner, and the fact that there was little if any extra pay was inconsequential. You were the coach, and you were something special in your school and in your community. Today the pay by comparison is terrific but the challenge of the times has clouded the profession - or the avocation - of the coach. He no longer is something special, and all too often - because the basic principles of athletics have not changed - he is characterized as out of step with the world of today. Coaching high school- athletics, first of all and above all, demands discipline. You are not going to get the job done in sports without discipline. Only if your boys are willing to give themselves for a cause greater than their individual and personal feelings and at­ titudes - which is what discipline is all about - will an athletic venture succeed. But "discipline" is a naughty word in today's society. It doesn't belong because it prevents, they say, the full appreciation of the individual's freedom and rights. And there is no denying that it does! Nor can it be any other way! But how do you sell discipline Ice Fishing At Antioch Derby Feb. 20 Antioch's 885 club will serve up a special treat for frigidaire fishermen on Sunday, Feb. 20, with the staging of their third annual ice derby. Over one hundred valuable prizes will be given to lucky anglers for merely catching their favorite species of fish. Prize winning categories in­ clude bass; bluegill; sunfish; crappie; northern pike; walleye pike, perch; striper; bullhead and catfish. The largest one of each of these which are caught every hour will win a prize, and then at day's end the largest of each species will also be rewarded, as will the largest one of the day. The first prizes will be awarded at 9 a.m., and every hour after that, the last one at 4 p.m. when all the prizes will be handed out. Additionally, prizes will be given to winners of twelve special events, on the half hour, the first one starting at 9:30 a.m. with the men's hole making contest with an auger, followed by the ladies auger contest and the men's chisel contest. Then will come the 6 to 12 year children's fishing contest and the ladies fishing contest, both in the freshly made holes, after which will follow the boys and girls sack race (8 to 12 years); ladies sack race; men's sack race; boys and girls skating contest , then an ice skating race for boys and girls, separately. There will be a penny scramble for very small children who will pick five hundred pennies out of the straw on the ice, and lastly, a kite flying contest. > A power auger will be on the rrce to make holes for the aged, the weak and those who would fish without exerting them­ selves too much. Hot refreshments will be served on the ice, in the warm shelter, and in Felter's clubhouse on shore, for spec­ tators and participants. Scene of the gala event is the south end of Lake Catherine, one mile west of Antioch on Route 173. Plenty of supervised free parking will be available at marked places adjacent to the derby scene. Special rules for all events and contests will be displayed on the ice. Warming salamanders will be spotted on the ice for the Eskimo type spectators and fishers. The shelters on the ice will be heated, so none need fear the cold. A complete schedule of the day's events will be issued shortly by derby chairman Charles Rayman. All of the net proceeds of this event will be used to implement the 885 Club's civic programs, said club president Norm Rockow. During the winter of 1950- 1951, the U.S. Army opened up 89,000 miles of snow clog­ ged roads with 1,100 pieces of equipment, and thus released 1,500,000 snow-bound people. | % w. w 5 i r %> ft ¥ V mm 4sss*basss*' t " I K Hunter S? ~~ Country Club's VAH&mmnb DINNER DANCE Saturday, February 12th • Complete Dinner....

The coach isn't always getting the support of parents in his efforts largely because so many parents either think they aren't able to cope with their boy's attitudes or because they simply haven't cared enough through his growing years to try to cope and to try to lead and guide him. The coach isn't getting the kind of support he needs from his fellow teachers largely because the field is infiltrated with the younger generation instructors who preach the doctrine of individual freedom by word and deed. The coach isn't getting the support of his administration largely because the ad­ ministration is directly responsible to the school board and the school board in our democratic society is the people - and the people by and large look at athletics as not important enough to sacrifice the easy way of freedom for the hard road of discipline. And so the coach must look elsewhere for help, and that's exactly what he is doing. He is looking to former athletes, to the members of the news media, to those parents and people who still care enough and who know that the only real freedom is a disciplined and responsible freedom. The coach knows and believes in athletics as a builder of boys into men. And the good coach won't sacrifice discipline as the foundation on which to do his building. He'd rather forget about coaching than forget about discipline. And he may as well because without discipline there is no athletics worth teaching to the high school boy.

Barkhausen, Director of the Illinois Department of Con­ servation. "Our statistics show that there were 56,557 permits issued by the department," the Director stated. "This means that our hunter-success ratio was about one deer for each five hunters issued permits." The department issued 51,691 regular permits, 943 paid landowner permits, and 3,923 free landowner permits for the six day split season. Pope County led all counties for the tally with 749 deer (Pope north recorded 557, and Pope south recorded 192). Joe Daviess, in the northwest corner of the state, followed with 687 deer. Other counties with high harvest figures in­ clude Johnson, 397; Carroll, 391; Adams, 344; Hancock, 340; Williamson, 321; and Union, 309. Clark and Bond counties each recorded a 297-pound (live weight) buck to take top honors in that category. The Junior High Trojans got back into the swing last week with a pair of victories. Tuesday they traveled to Cary and crushed them by a score of 58 to 24. The outside shooting by T. Ludwig, and the inside work by B. Lund and J. Knaack led the Trojans to their biggest win of the year. Then Thursday evening the Trojans played host to the Parkland Vikings before a fine crowd. The Vikings came ready to play and were leading the Trojans at the end of the first quarter by 4 points. Then the Trojans put it together and moved out in front due to the outstanding board work done by B Lund, and the outside shooting of the guards. B. Lund wound up with a game high 20 rebounds to lead both clubs. The Trojans record now stands at 7 wins and 6 losses.

This indicates that one deer was taken for each three permits issued in that county. MUST HARVEST THEM "In Illinois we have no choice of whether or not to harvest the deer. We must harvest them," said Jack Calhoun, who has been the leader of the deer project since its inception in 1957. "There are no natural predators for deer in Illinois except man and free running dogs, and if they were not hunted their numbers would increase beyond control." CROP EATERS Calhoun said the Illinois deer have changed their habits from browsing animals to crop eating animals due to the highly productive agricultural areas which are contained in Illinois. Because of their great potential for reproduction they could severely harm the agricultural output if they were not harvested annually. "During 1971, we hunted the white-tail in 85 of Illinois' 102 counties during the shotgun season," Calhoun said. "The counties not hunted were in the heavily populated urban counties of northeastern Illinois and the black prairie counties which are so highly agricultural that they do not have sufficient cover for deer. "The counties hunted are surveyed and we set quotas whereby a set number of permits are issued. This is to stop a possible over-harvest so we will maintain a good breeding population for each of the counties." LEGISLATION VETOED Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie has vetoed legislation which would have given incumbents preferential listing on primary ballots in legislative elections and which would have required partisan slating and voting for new judicial candidates. House Bill 2485 would have permitted the names of more than one incumbent to be listed by seniority, and HBs 3623 and 3674 would have brought judicial candidates into the party primary slate-making and election process. The last two bills were passed in the final hours of the recent session, and were assailed by lawyers and civic groups as having been enacted without adequate hearings. woom McHenry Hobby Shop JANUARY CONTEST WINNERS...
