The first year for the Parkland Vikings was a successful one. Although their record did not indicate it, they established a "never say die"attitude. Leading scorers for the teamwere Greg O'Halleran, Brian Nuss, Jeff Damiani, and Jeff Boyer. Scott Lasko, Mike Mai, and Nuss led the team in rebounds. The boys should be congratulated for a job well done. 3rd Row, Coach Eiserman. 2nd Row, Kevin Rourke, Greg O'llaileran, Mike Retek, Keith Schadel, Scott Lasko, Jeff Boyer, Alan Hill, Mike Mai, Tod Lange. 1st Row, Steve Thorns, Jeff Damiani, Brian Nuss, Vic Santi, Kent Putnam, mgr. sm9IB PAGE 7-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1972 A Hockey Note Earlier this month the U.S. hockey team which will re present the nation in the 1972 Olympics met the Rus sian team in New York, and was thoroughly trounced, 11-4. The I'. S. team was amateur, ot course. The Rus sians, while also amateurs in a sense, are almost al- way^better because their government and its hockey pfogram constitute a major, national effort.

BIG THRILL FOR SMALL HUNTER It couldn't have been more of a thrill if he'd bagged a big-tusked elephant for Brad Smith, 12, of 4514 Garden Quarter, McHenry, 111. His 350-pound wild boar was the first game he had shot larger than a cottontail rabbit since his father taught him how to use firearms five years ago. Boar was bagged on a recent weekend hunt at the 1,600-acre North Star Gameland near Montour, Iowa, where imported European boar roam completely wild in thickly wooded hills and swamplands. It took two shots from Brad's 30-30 Winchester to bring down the tusker, which was shot in a forest clearing at about 50 yards. Wild boar, with their razor-sharp tusks, are dangerous game when wounded or cornered. Several hunters each year at North Star are charged and bowled over by the big pigs, and a few have been severely wounded, according to Larry Hinegardner, owner of the preserve. SELL THROUGH THE CLASSIFIEDS Baseball at McHenry County College this spring will be coached by Dean of Student Services Robert Popovich, who has had considerable ex perience in baseball. While attending Ball State University, Muncie, In., from 1950-1954, he spent three years as varsity baseball catcher. Then, as a teacher with the U.S. Army in Japan, he toured that country as part of the First Cavalry Division Baseball Team. He caught batting practice for the former New York Giants when they played at Wrigley Field. At Thornton Fractional Township North High School, Calumet City, Bob coached baseball for two years. From 1959-1968, he um pired high school, college, and industrial league baseball and basketball. Of the MCC Baseball team, Bob says, "I've been told that this year's squad fs a certain conference champion." The first game of the season is scheduled on April 10 with Triton. Bob graduated from Ball State in 1954 with a B.A. in business education. He earned his Master's degree in education at the University of Chicago in 1958 and presently is working for his doctorate in education at Northern Illinois University, DeKalb. He says his coaching philosophy is the same as his teaching philosophy: "To get each individual to realize his maximum potential, excellence in performance and pride in one's self, whether the games are won or lost."

By Fred Kusch Gaining revenge of an earlier loss to the Warriors, Wood stock's Blue Streaks traveled to MCHS' West Campus Buckner gym last Friday to hand the young Warriors their fourth loss of the season against 16 big victories. The story of the ball game is easily told as the statistics show the Warriors connecting on 19 of 60 shots for a lowly 32 percent from the field. The offensive picture was dimmer yet if one skims the charity picture. The Warriors hit on only 8 of 20 from the free throw line. The results are very clear then when one sees the sophs coming out on the short end of a 50-46 score The Warriors just couldn't seem to get anything going as they had many opportunities but failed to make good on the ad vantages that came their way. Leading the Warriors against the Streaks was Ed Choate who scored 15 points and pulled down 10 rebounds. Tonight the Sophs and the varsity are hosts to the Broncos (Mon.) Morton, (Tues.)

Nevertheless, just about every four years the U. S. hockey team costs the nation fnends all over the world; , the li. S. team this year seems to be following that tradition. Against the Rus sians U.S. players were un sporting and overly-aggres sive, physically. Pushing, hitting and knocking down the Russians doesn't change the score or compensate for a loss. It didn't in 19f>8, nor in 1964, when the behavior of the I'.S. hockey team was especially scandalous and cost the United States much international good will.
