On The Sidelines With Dick Rabbitt It looks as if the McHenry Relays will have to be renamed the Kaneland Relays. For the fifth straight year the Knights walked, or should I say ran home with the big first place trophy. Year after year Coach "Pete" turns out championship track teams. The veteran cigar smoking coach just sits in the stands and clicks his stopwatch as his boys run to the finish line. The Knights also won the St. Charles tourney on Saturday for their fifth relay championship of the season. Only at Northern Illinois University did the Knights fail to win this year, and in that meet they were second. Quite a record for the small Class A school. They will have to be given serioBs consideration for the Class A State Titl&iater this spring. McHenry was handicapped with sprinters Ev Klapperich and Denny Useman on the sidelines. Klapperich is still recovering from a pulled ham string musclq, and Useman injured his knee in the longjump, prior to the running events Friday evening. With these two boys fit and hardy I'm sure that the Warriors would have made a better fight of it. Congratulations are in order to Coach Wally Scott, and his staff of Bill Day, Gary Collins and Dan Boland for a job well done. Bill Blankenhorn must be given a vote of confidence for the hot coffee he supplied to the press box. Bill Hutchinson was the official starter, and he kept the meet running on schedule. Coaches Day and Collins, clerk of the course and finish judge, did a fine job of getting scores to the press box. Ken Ludwig on the P.A. kept the fans informed of events and running score. Martha Rabbitt, Sherry Bauer and Sue Wickenkamp although half frozen did a good job of keeping the running score in the press box. Bob Ludwigsen the pole vault judge was still working at 10:15 long after the running events were over and most of the crowd had left. With 40 vaulters under his command, Bob had a very busy evening. Found Bob Hurckes, Lee Mai and Walt Nuss huddled in the stands under the press box just where I left them last November after the Zion football game. Do you really think they stayed there all winter? A lot of parents were on hand to see their sons perform. The Klapperichs, Reinboldts, and Art Oakley were along the fence watching Andy run in the distance relays. All in all it was a great meet, and even if the fans did feel a little cold, I 'm sure they were not disappointed. Maybe next year the weather will be nicer, and more fans will come out. Want to apologize to Coach Hutch and Coach Marty for failing to mention cross country and wrestling last week in my predictions of athletics on the upswing at McHenry. These two sports are definitely on the upsurge, and it looks as if next year will again be a banner year in sports for McHenry. Let's win a few championships along the way. Congratulations to the Frosh-Soph tennis team and Coach Toby Scott for winning the 1st Annual Frosh-Soph McHenry Tennis tourney. Scoring a perfect fourteen points in an eight team tourney must be some kind of a record. The youngsters really showed the other seven teams entered, how the game should be played. Could there be another Jimmy Connors in our midst? It sure would be nice to have another Connors Waiting in the wings. The way these young lads today take to the game, anything could be possible. More About Horses And Coming Events At the time of his death in i965 the get of A dies had won over 14 million dollars in purses. Adios sired the great pacers Adios Harry, Adios Butler, and the popular Bret Hanover. Also standing at stud at Acorn Acres is H.D. Daddie a grandson of the prominent stallion Billy Direct. Daddie is a product of the selective breeding program at one of the premier breeding farm for Standardbreds, the Hanover Show Farm, located in Hanover, Penna. Dr. Iverson has found pasture breeding the efficient way to breed the large number of mares to be bred each season. You might say he feels that Nature's way is best. Doc does not favor the popular practice of racing two year olds. He sends his young horses to an Amish trainer in Iowa to be broke to drive. When the youngsters are returned to him the most promising prospects are turned over to Harris Holmen the resident trainer at Acorn Acres, who begins the in earnest race training. 1975 has so far been a good year for Acorn Acres. Several of the horses bred at the farm have won sizeable purses. Current winners by Newport are Minneha, Black Hawk's Queen, and N. Port. The young mare Daddi's Sis by H.D. Daddie has been bringing 'home the bacon' too. With a herd of 30 horses at Acorn Acres Dr. Iverson plans to keep up the good work continuing to use horses bred at the farm as his harness race horses. Acorn Acres is located near Harvard on McGuire Road. The Harvard Milk Day Horse Show will feature three driving classes in addition to an antique carriage exhibition. We can't supply the thrills of a show rinp roadster class, but if you have never seen a pleasure driving class, you are in for an en­ joyable experience Come join us at the 34th Harvard Milk Day in Harvard, Illinois on Don't'Miss. . June 7th. Be sure to stop in at the horse show and see how much fun driving can be.

The Cattle Breed of the week is the World's Largest Dairy Breed, the Holstein. The one featured this week is Mer-E- Mar Senator Lucita. She has taken grand champion Holstein honors in 1972 and 1973. Was Grand champion at the County Fair in 1972, 1973 and 1974, also was Grand Champion in 4-H Division at the Illinois State Fair in 1972. This prize animal will be shown at Harvard's 34th Milk Day Cattle Show and is the property of the Hardt family of Woodstock. McHenry Country Club The weather outside was frightful and as a result the first round of the seasons first tournament, the McHenry Spring Tournament was cancelled last Sunday. Some of the more hardy members did start, ito play but were unable to finish. What was to have been a 56 hole affair will now be 36 holes with last Sunday's scheduled foursomes and tee times prevailing.

If sunshine, blue skies and a crisp breeze can be considered an omen, the ladies at the local country club undoubtedly feel that this must be their year. Tuesday officially opened the season for the gals with a 9 hole Fruits of Labor event. Judy Smithson led the group with a net score of 38, followed by Nell Fidler with a 40 and Marilyn Reihansperger with 41, closely followed by Catherine Bolger with a 42. Parring a number of the holes gave Judy the un­ disputed lead while Nell took a birdie on No. 14 and Marilyn a birdie on No. 18.
