CK OVER Slows" He's USUALLY Just a couple of weeks ago we mentioned Louis Woelfersheim and the fun he added to World War One Veterans' Annual dinner at the American Legion Home. Last week he died suddenly. While we didn't know Louis well, we liked his spirit. He gave us some kind words after the program-and a last hand­ shake The Vets lost a faithful member. We lost a new found friend That's life-and death! The rains came and so did the Wildcats of Libertyville last Friday night for the Warrior's last home football game of the season. The Wildcats were too much to tame and downed our team 20-13. Scouts say that the Liber­ tyville team improved greatly from the start of the season. They looked plenty good. We were giving the Wildcat quarterback credit for calling a smart game until Gary Collins wised us up to the fact that all the plays were coming in from the bench. Whoever called those plays knew how to mix 'em up and pick the weak spots in our defense. Yep. Gary was there to hoist us into the coop. And Dan Boland was right there as back­ up man. It was another enjoyable season watching the games from the shelter of the press coop. It would have been more fun winning, but that's how the ball bounces. Must say Mark Bentz played a strong game as he has all season. Teams don't run many plays in his direction. Guess they would rather not hit a brick wall. Roger Ludwig gave the crowd some thrills with his long runs. A good athlete and fine competitor is Roger. As the old saying goes, he comes to play. Next Friday the Warriors travel to Crystal Lake. Then comes the windup on Saturday, Nov. 4, at Woodstock. Both games will be played in the afternoon. Winning those two games would make the season look good. Must ask Dick Rabbitt what his Crystal ball says. Series just came with the American entry, Oakland, v/in- eart stopper. Bob Weber, an old time Cub fan, phoned with "How did you like the World Series?" We liked it. Of course, we wanted to see the White Sox in there, but had to settle for Oakland. All the experts said that Cincinnati and Pittsburgh were the two best teams in baseball. What they meant was the two best in the National League. Wilbur Wood would have had those Reds swinging their heads off at his knuckle ball. Of course, Bernie Erjavec had a few words about Wilbur and his fade-out at the end of the season. He's one of those Cub fans who«t laughed when we said if we had to pick a pitcher to win one big game, we wouldn't pick their pet, Fergie Jenkins. The series was certainly dominated by the pitchers. They know they don't have to pace themselves for 9 innings so let 'er fly while they are in there. The series is over and quite a Tigers Keep Crown In North Suburban Cross Country Meet By Dick Rabbitt In a driving rainstorm Saturday morning at West campus the Crystal Lake Tigers managed to retain their North Suburban Cross Country title. Their 59 pts. managed to edge out the Woodstock Blue Streaks who had 64 pts.

By Dick Rabbitt Friday night in the rain and mud the Libertyville "Wild­ cats" defeated the McHenry "Warriors" by a score of 20 to 13. McHenry kicked off and Libertyville returned the ball to the 20. After 2 first downs, Bentz intercepted on the Warrior 48. Freund, Knaack and Ludwig carried to the "Cat's" 37. Then Ludwig scooted over tackle for 37 yds , and the T.D. Isaac's kick was good and the Warriors led 7 to 0. With 7 seconds remaining in the quarter, Hill scored for Libertyville and the kick failed and the Warriors led 7 to 6 at the end of the 1st quarter. During most of the 2nd period Frkshmen Lose 20-0 At Libertyville Warriors finished fifth with a total of 118 pts. Bill Santino of Crystal Lake easily won the meet in the outstanding time of 15:06 under adverse weather conditions. George Haines of McHenry finished 7th, John Mclnerney 14th and Tim Tonyan 20th By Dick Rabbitt The McHenry high freshmen lost 20 to 0 Saturday morning to a good big Libertyville fresh­ men team. In a game played in rain and mud the Warriors lost the ball six time on fumbles. However, Ed Hamann recovered three Libertyville fumbles. The offense could not perform under these con­ ditions, although Brian Nuss did manage to pick up 83 yds., rushing. The "B" squad lost 13 to 6 with Dave Richardson running 34 yds., for the Warrior score.

The kick was good and the Cats led 13 to 7. But the Warriors came roaring back. Grover returned the kick to the 44. Freund went to the 33. Habich on an end around went to the 10. Two plays later Mauch hit Bentz for the T.D. with 3 seconds remaining in the half. A bad pass from center, and the extra point was no good leaving the score tied at halftime. For the second week in a row the Warriors didn't play ball in the second half. The Liber­ tyville backs. Hill, Thompson and Poe ran at what was considered to be the strength of the Warriors, the defensive line. They literally tore it apart. Doing everything but scoring the Cats dominated the third period completely. Early in the fourth quarter Poe ran in from the 1 to put the Cats ahead to stay. The Warriors did degenerate some excitement midway in the period. Ludwig broke loose and raced 70 yds., but was tripped up on the Libertyville 20. With 4th and 1 on the 11. Ludwig failed to make the 1st down. Deep in their own territory, the Cats quick kicked for 51 yds., to the Warrior's 41. That took them out of trouble. The Warriors started another march. Bullet Bob Staley's pass to Habich was good to the Cat's 29, but Libertyville held and ran out the clock for a 20 to 13 win. I 'm afraid there will be some lineup changes for the Warriors next week. The of­ fense sputtered and couldn't consistently come up with the big play. The defense was ragged, as mentioned before the Libertyville backs gained at will through the Warrior line. An old rival the Tigers from Crystal Lake are next on the schedule. Here is hoping the Warriors left all the mistakes on the field Friday night and go io . out and claw those Tigers next Saturday afternoon.

By Dick Rabbitt The McHenry high school sophomore's won their fifth game of the season Friday night by defeating Libertyville by a score of 12 to 6. Late in the first period Ev Klapperich thrilled the home crowd by returning a Liber­ tyville punt 51 yds., for a touch­ down. With 2:55 remaining in the half the fast improving Scotty Pfau raced 9 yds., to paydirt The young Warriors com­ pletely outclassed their op­ ponents. Early in the first quarter Steve Lane on three successive plays hurled the Libertyville backs for losses totaling 44 yds. The defense was again at its best. They limited Libertyville to minus yardage. With Lane, Eppel, Kasprzyk, Roberts, and Dougherty all over the field, the young "Cats" were a frustrated team, Ken Ludwig, starting his first game at Q B. in place of the injured Randy McCafferty, did a commendable job. The backs, Klapperich, Hansen, and Pfau gained yardage all night, thanks to the good work of the front line of Frantz, Dix, Zeller, Arndt, Williams, and Gerstad Crystal Lake is the next opponent Let's go Sophs and put number 6 in the win^ column. £p0"#0|Pfr) STOP COLD WINTER DRAFTS!
