The news in the National League's eastern division in recent weeks has been St. Lours^ which had a hor­ rible start.Bn^rtttought Red Schoendienst's job was in jeopardy a few months ago; then the Redbirds caught f i r e a n d a r e c o n t e n d e r s , with Pittsburgh, New York and Chicago. Jk The Cincinnati Reds have caught fire, even swept a series with tough Pittsburgh in mid-July. Houston and Los Angeles--the Dodgers have slumped in recent weeks--are still in that western division race to make it interesting. In the American, the Baltimore Orioles have un­ expectedly lost games in streaks, despite good pitch­ ing. The hitting has been awful and the Birds are in trouble though still in it; now, however, both Boston and New York have ideas, spawned by the Birds' dive. Detroit has been in it all along and still is. In the western division, Minnesota has revived under a new manager, Chicago is s t i l l c o n t e n d i n g ( t h o u g h Bill Melton is out) and Kan­ sas City has come on im­ pressively in recent weeks, to give Oakland's favored Athletics something to think about. Four good races in the four divisions at this time of year is good base­ ball news. The season is over and it's final. The Cards are Champs. They locked it up Friday night with a 9-6 victory over the Cubs. Steve Whitehead went for the Cards, Jerry Larkin for the Cubs. The Cubs were a little shaky in the field in the first inning and the Cards put across 4 runs. The Cards held off the Cubs, the rest of the way to win. Harrah hit his first home run in the game. Terry Larkin and Mike Winters pitched for the Cubs, the loss going to Larkin, Steve Whitehead getting the victory. Well, if s All-Star time, with all the managers getting the boys ready for the All-Star games. Lee Mai (Cards), Jack Staly (Braves) and Larry Beaman (Cubs) aft; on the 15 year old team. *> Larry Beaman and Tom Burke (Orioles) taking the 14 year olds, Phil Thorn (Sox), George Gilpin (Tigers), the 13 year old team.

This week a card came to S.I.H, from Scotland. Here is the message: "Wid ye mind putting in six votes for oor favorite team 'The Cubs.' From Jock, Tam, Wullie, Sandy, Shamus and Ian Mc- Tavish. From Bonnie Scotland." EARL WALSH So I Hear SPORTS EDITOR J Figure that one oot! And you should see the pic­ ture on the froqt of the card -- "You Are The Roving Reporter Alright!" Wowie! That's some doll in the arms of the Roving Reporter. Jerry Miller, who has been a faithful and enthusiastic reporter all summer, has a story on the sport page about Hettermann's team winning the Softball tournament. Jerry told us this week that visiting""teams were all high in theii* praW~of Wayne Hiller, who was named the "Most Valuable Player in the tour­ nament. Congratulations to Wayne and the entire Hettermann team. Everybody says so - Mrs. Nick (Lillian) Miller was one of the nicest persons they ever knew. She left this earth at the age of 53 years - too soon. With a sweet smile and genuine goodness, Lillian made a host of friends. We can only think that our loss on this earth is Heaven's gain. Met J&ke Stoffel at the wake and he told us a good one. This is how Jake tells it. Joe Williams shook hands with him and said, "After looking at you, I can believe that hard work never hurt anyone." We must talk to Joe. Our old pal, "Zeke" Bacon, came in to say hello this week. Confidentially, we think he came in to show us he has lost his poundage around the middle.

Algonquin Angler Lands 31-Pound Chinook Salmon A month-old record was broken recently when Thomas Boyle, Algonquin, landed a 31- pound, seven-ounce chinook salmon from Lake Michigan. The fish broke the state record !for chinook by more than two pounds. Boyle's fish was taken off the Waukegan shoreline on a spoon- plug, according to William Harth, supervisor of the division of fisheries for the Illinois Department of Con­ servation. The record fish was 39 inches long and had a girth of 27 inches.

The Chicago Bears won't bring a championship to Chicago either. The All-Star football game went about as expected. It seems to be asking too much to expect a group of collegians to get a team together in three weeks to play a championship pro team.

In spite of the heat, the McHenry archery club hosted 288 shooters plus many interested spectators.

This was the club's firsft try at entering a float in the humorous class. After the parade, Miss McHenry and her court were presented with archery trophies and escorted through part of the range to view the 3-D animals and many moving targets.
