-4 On The Sidelines vWith Dick Rabbitt The McHenry, High track team put on a fine performance last Friday night at the Rockford District meet held at Auburn stadium. The physical facilities at Auburn will put a lot of small colleges to shame. Seating for over 5,000, an all weather track, and a double deck press box that seemed a mile in the air. With these facilities staring them in the face all the Warriors did was to finish seventh in the district meet for an excellent showing, and in the process broke six school records. Brian Nuss broke his own school record in the 330 low hurdles when he went the distance in 40.2 breaking the record of 40.4. John Mclnerney broke two records on his way to qualifying for the state finals in both events. He ran the two mile in 9:27.4 breaking his record set last year of 9:34.5. He came back in the mile in 4:22.5, breaking the record he set several weeks ago of 4:25.7. With what I would call excellent competition from Rockford East, the Warriors relay teams really burned up the track. The 440 relay team of Ev Klapperich, Brian Nuss, Denny Useman, and George Hansen toured the distance in 44.6, breaking their record of 44.9. The 880 relay team which missed by three-tenths of a second of qualifying for the state finals composed of Ev and Loren Klapperich, George Hansen and Denny Useman ran in 132.3, breaking their old record by two full seconds. ^ The mile relay team of Wian Nuss, Loren Klapperich, Otto Dschida, and Tim Talbot ran in 3:32.4, breaking the old record set last year of 3:33.5. In a district meet the competition is such, that inches and tenths of second are the difference between qualifying for the state finals, or staying a home. It was a great meet for the Warriors and they should be proud of their achievements. If you wondered last fall why East Rockford was probably the best football team in the state, you could have found out last Friday night. Three members of their backfield ran on two relays teams that won in the district. Jerry Holliday, a pulling guard, ran the fastest quarter mile ever run by a high school boy in the state when he went the 440 in the time of 47.1. This 6'2" 195 lb. lad really put on a show, and at the finish was given a standing ovation by the entire crowd. He also went over the 120 yd. high hurdles in 14.1, well below the 15.0 qualifying time for the state finals. All Warrior fans are wishing John Mclnerney and George Hansen the best of luck this weekend at Charleston, where they qualified for the finals. George will compete in the pole vault and John in the mile and 2 mile run. ' Ken Swanson's Warriors almost had the Big Red last Saturday at Elgin in the Baseball Regional Tournament. They jumped off to a 3 to 0 lead, but Barrington fought back and picked up 8 runs in the top of the sixth to end the dream of the Warriors. With almost the entire team returning next season, maybe the Warriors will be able to beat the Barrington jinx. The A.D.'s of the North Suburban Conference voted today to start football practice on August 18. The state allows practice to start on the 13th, but the conference voted to start at a later date. There is really no need to start at the eariler date, when the state association will not move up the date for the first game. Personally I would like to see one non-conference game on the schedule before conference play. Most teams are ready to play after a couple of weeks of practice, and a ten game schedule would balance the home and home series. Like everything else, revenue plays an important part of a high school athletic budget. Hilltop Junior Olympics Has 115 Students In Action DIVOT DOLLS M.C.C. By Liz Nolan Mother Nautre continued to favor the ladies of McHenry Country Club as they finished their second and final round of ABC net team tournament well ahead of the thunder storm that was trying to develop. First place team with low nets of 230 - 246 for a total of 476 was made up of Laverne Harpling, Maisie Stamer and Ethel Koehler. Second place team with Judy Smithson, Barb Weber and Esther Jemiola registered 245 - 250 for a total of 495; and in third place Dee Overton (subbing for Joanie Buss), Esther Jemiola and Faye Stuart netted 247-250, totalling 497 Low individual nets in Class A were Judy Smithson with 66 and Millie Leisten with 81. In Class B Emily Hester and Laverne Harpling tied at 79 net each while in Class C Ethel Koehler had net 77 and Faye Stuart a net 82. With the greens in super condition, some fine putting was exhibited by Judy with 27 putts, Em Hester 30 and Betty Wayman 25. Now, that's just got to be considered as having a "fine touch"! Three of the gals dressed up their scores by sinking ap proaches. They were E. Jemiola on 3, B Wayman on 9 and J. Smithson on 7. In ad­ dition, several birdies were scored: one by B. Weber on 9, C. Bolger on 9 and Judy S. on 6, 8, and 15. It had to be "Judy Smithson Day" at the club with a chipin, 3 birdies and a net of 66! That's really super-terrific golfing, Jude. The day was really great and some nice, serious golfing was done. We have a fine group of gals participating each week and, so that things wouldn't appear to be coming monotonous some of them obligingly added a touch of humor (?) or two. As comic relief Nell Fidler pretended that the creek was a giant ball- washer and plopped five of the little spheres into the water (just to see the water splash, she said). It seems that that let her take a 14 on No. 8. Oops! Nobody seems to know just what got into Dorothy Christiansen, but in the same general area of action she decided to dump all her clubs (and bag) into the water. Alvina Yopp got in on the act and helped retrieve the weapons. Needless to say, A1 and Dottie both emerged loaded - with mud, that is. The nine-holers' schedule hasn't officially opened yet but each Tuesday finds them out in full force - getting a head start on themselves It's really great seeing all the ladies out each week. Much enthusiasm prevails and promises to continue in like vein M a k e y o u r b a c k y a r d f e n c e a t t r a c t i v e a n d u s e f u l b y t r a i n i n g a c u c u m b e r p l a n t t o r u n o n i t .
