Had a nice visit with Bob. He is one of our three readers and gets a kick out of the Cubs-Sox feud in McHenry. 'Told him how it pains us to have to keep writing about our dear Cub fans). Those Methodists must pray real good. It looked like the skies would open up Sunday morning, but by chicken dinner time at the Ringwood Church the sun shone down upon the crowd. Arlene Pearson wasn't at the cash box when we entered and we felt let down. We thought she got the bounce. Then she appeared and our fears were lifted. Sat across from the Allen Dimons at the table and found them to be pleasant company. Had a great visit with Clinton Martin that could have gone on for hours.

Billy Martin was canned this week from his job as manager of the Texas Rangers after being named manager of the year in 1974. Billy has had a« stormy career, being a fighter with more than his mouth He was a winner at Min­ nesota, Detroit and Texas, but clashed with the front office in each city. -It just goes to prove that the boss may be wrong, but he is still the boss. Like most people, we have had our share of worries in life, but have reached the stage where we watch our blood pressure. Must admit that inflation in this country concerns us a lot. Some place along the line things are going to have to level off. Had a brief chat with Gary Collins. Looks like he is still in shape to hoist us into the press box when the football season opens. And that will come sooner than we think. If we can believe all we read, the Chicago Bears will be a different team this year. It's anybody's guess who will open at quarterback. Our guess is Bobby Douglas Have heard of little boys who hated to wash both hands when one wasn't dirty. We encountered one this week with dirt on one arm after telling us he had a bath. How come? Reply: "I held my arm up like this". J.C. Martin had a baseball player as a guest on TV the other night and finished up with the usual "I have a nice gift for you". With a sigh, the player let out this, "Not another radio!" Some ball players probably have enough radios to start their-tiwn shops.

It is scheduled for August 14,15, and 16, 1975. The camp, conducted by the staff of the Junior Cheerleading Association of America, will stress the fundamentals and basic cheerleading skills, q . Young cheerleaders may choose to live on the Barat College campus for the full three-day session or commute daily. Those who wish to live in the campus dormitories are under the supervision of trained counselors, get three meals a day in the college dining room, and must observe a 10 p.m. curfew. Commuters can sign up for the full three-day session, which runs from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily. •fig.

Old Bridge beat Phillip's 66 by scores of 18-8 and 14-2, dropping Phillip's into 5th place. The House of David won an exciting game over Wet- teland Decorating by a score of 8-5. The second game was no contest as the House of David romped to a 16-3 win. Rusty Nail dropped a pair of games to Swanson Chalet by scores of 15- 11 and 13-10. The losses drop Rusty Nail into third place while the surging Swanson Chalet are beginning to look like the '51 Giants. As it looks now no team has cinched first, especially with the Old Bridge- House of David matchup this Wednesday night. Rusty Nail can gain ground on whoever loses; but first place is now impossible for them. Thus Old Bridge and the House of David will fight it out Wednesday, July 23! S.P.A. has taken over 4th place and they'll need two victories over Swanson Chalet to hold that position (included Wednesday is a suspended game from earlier in the season which is tied in the 7th inning plus the regular single game). Standings as of 7-16-75: W I Old Bridge 15 3 House of David 14 4 Rusty Nail 12 6 S.P.A. 8 8 Phillip's 66 8 9 Swanson Chalet 7 10 Wetteland Decorating 5 11 The Stand 0 18 Phillip's 66, who at one time owned a share in the lead, is now in a slump as they can't seem to win any of the big games. Losing five of their last 6 games has knocked them below .500 for the first time this season. However, they are only »2 game out of 4th place. Swanson Chalet has im­ proved of late and may have an outside chance if they can beat SP A. and if they can beat Phillip's 66 the following week. Wetteland Decorating is a real long shot for a playoff spot and probably will play spoiler in its remaining 5 games. The next two weeks should be pressure packed for all the ball teams, especially with each playoff spot still to be won! Swanson Chalet came back in game one after spotting Rusty Nail to 7 runs in the first inning and won 15 to 11. Paul Adams went 5 for 5 and scored 3 times had 3 hits and scored 3 times while Bill Blankenhorn added 3 hits. Dan Stanowski had 3 more hits including a 2 run double while Pat Wirtz added 2 hits and 2 RBI's including a solo home run. Dale Snell had 3 RBI's with 2 hits and a sacrifice f l y - For Rusty Nail Pete Elliott and Gary Schmitt both had 3 hits with one of Schmitt's a two run homer. Mike Thennes had 2 hits plus a sacrifice fly with Dennis Schmitt and Bill Comstock hitting for 2 base hits each plus 2 runs scored each. .

The Chalet went ahead in the second inning and stayed ahead for good in the 4th inning as timely hitting and Rusty Nail errors contributed to a Chalet win. Dan Stanowski led Swanson Chalet with 3 hits and 4 RBI's including a 3 run homer and a double. Ray Faranklin added two hits including a grand slam home run. Roger Ludwig, Twig Miller, Paul Adams and Bill Rudolph all added 2 hits each for the Chalet. Rusty Nail was led by Charly Sowers' perfect 4 for 4, all singles; Len Acker- mann was the power as he belted a triple and a home run besides a single, all good for 4 RBI's. Dave Schmitt had 3 singles while Gary Schmitt had 2 RBI's with two long sacrifice flies. Old Bridge had a late start but once they were started Phillip's 66 could not keep pace. Phillip's 66 owned leads of 3-0 and 6-4 however Old Bridge has really been hitting well as John Connell kept a hot bat for July going 3 for 3. Matt Oik banged a 3 run home run besides 2 other hits while Dave Sundby, Pat McQueeney, Pete Smith and Gary Connell all contributed 2 hits each. One of Sundby's hits was a solo home run as was Connell's. Steve Salter hit a home run back to back with Connell! For Phillip's 66 Bob Buss and Steve Welter had 2 hits each.

In game two Old Bridge never let up and the game had to be called prematurely due to the 12 run rule. Phillip's 66 managed only 5 team hits scoring a run in the first on an error, a ground out and another error. Their other run came on Jack Adams' single followed by Bob Buss' single and a fielder's choice scoring Adams. Old Bridge was led by Dave Sundby who had 3 hits including a 3 run home run.

By Liz Nolan Just to reverse the procedure a little, here are the results of the Nifty Niners for Tuesday's play at the McHenry Country Club. The TinWhistle event found Marianne Cristy ac­ cumulating 22 points to make her the winner in First Flight while Mary Weiland captured the same position in second Flight with 20 points. Cute little blonde Jean Remke scored both low gross and low net in First flight with Marie Barton taking low gross in Second Flight and Mary Weiland low net in the same group. Nice putting by Toots Gersted.Shirl Smith, Marianne Cristy and Jan Tonyan found the four gals tied for low putts with 16 each. Some of these gals really have the right touch on the greens. In the 18-hole division the same named event found Alvina Yopp tallying 40 points for herself to be the winner in Class A, followed by Nell Fidler with 38 points. In Class B Katherine Bolger led with 45 points and Dot Freund earned 41. Margie Blomquist in Class C amassed 39 points, followed by Sue Martin who had 36. For Low Net Alvina and Nell were nip and tuck, Alvina posting 73 to Nell's 74; while they both used 30 strokes only on the greens to tie for low putts. Close behind in putts were Laverne Harpling and Floss O'Connell, each taking 32. Walking on a cloud when she returned to the clubhouse was Katherine Bolger (Class B) who shot her best game ever (to held Mopday, July 21 at the McHenry Country Club are: 10-12 YEARS OLDS Joe Bauml 103 Jim Pepping 108 Chris Juzwik 114 13-15 YEAR OLDS Tom Pepping 81 Ron Pepping • 84 Bob Lunkenheimer 84 date). Katherine had a beautiful net 67 to make her undisputed low net for the day. Dorothy Freund was not too far behind with a net 73. Part of the beauty of Katherine's game was the fact tht she took only 29 putts for the 18 holes. However, Nancy Wilkins did her one better on the greens by having only 28 to give her low putts in Class B. And in Class C two young ladies who are moving right up there, Sue Martin and Margie Blomquist, tied for the honor of Low Net with 78 each. In the putting area of that Class Betty Wayman and Carol Seese , showed their skills by tieing with 28 each. Although Carla Wright seems to occasionally drive her ball at right angles to the intended line of flight, she apparently has the skill and finesse for blasting from a sandtrap. Her warhoop of victory was" heard in Wauconda, it seems, as she exploded from the left-hand trap on 17 and sank the shot for a par. How about that?! While golfing is the main event with the ladies on Tuesday, a report (second­ hand) has come back that occasionally a little variety enters the scene. Some young blond (perhaps the ladies' champ?) was viewed from a distance taking advantage of a waiting spell by doing a few leg calisthenics. Another time, perhaps, we'll be fortunate enough to have Wayne Gaylord on hand with his Leica. Meanwhile, back at the clubhouse, Joanie Buss and Betty Waytula were busy beautifying the entry with pink and green this and that, preparing for the McHenry Women's Invitational which is shaping up beautifully. All the various committees have been in a whirl preparing for the big event and it looks as though a full field of contestants is in for a most delightful two-day tournament on the 14th and 15th of August. One last reminder that Tuesday, the 29th, is Hullabaloo and most of the tee-times are filled. Better hurry if you want to be a part of this fun-filled day! Til the next time - Happy Golfing! JUNIOR MISS A WINNER Female competition in the game of golf isn't reserved and restricted to the "older generation" as witnessed by one of our \)cal young lassies. Travelling to Indian Lakes, Toni Weber paired with Scott Strubhar of Pekin, 111. to capture third place in the Northern Illinois Mixed Junior Best-Ball Tournament on Tuesday, the 22nd. Sixteen year old Toni is becoming a seasoned com­ petitor, with this year being her third time to compete in the annual event. Under less than desirable course conditions, Toni putted well and netted herself a 70 in a field of over 100 participants. Pappa Warren and Mama Barb can be justly proud of their dear daughter and, if she continues to prac­ tice, play and improve, we'll all be looking for her name in the list of touring pros. Congratulations, Toni! ~ MENS 18" SOFTBALL DICK MEYERS LEADS APPLE INN PAST OLD BRIDGE By John Weyland Thursday night July 17 Fox Lake eased past Coppermine by the score of 13-4. Vinny Freund went 3 for 4 and scored 3 times. In the second game Haut- zinger Concrete kept on win­ ning by beating Jakes 7-4. Meyer of Hautzinger came up with a 3 run homer to clinch the win. Monday night, July 21 Jakes put it to Coppermine by cat­ ching up and ) passing them to make the final score 16-8. Jakes were losing at the end of 3Vfe innings but came up with 6 runs in the 4th and 5 innings to win the game. In the second game Hautzinger Concrete did it again, they won their 5th in a row by beating the Merchants 14 to 5. Jackson, Meyer and Sorensen all had 3 hits for 4 at bats. Tuesday night Dick Meyers slid his team Apple Inn past Old Bridge by hitting a home run and two singles to make the final score 7-6. Hettermann's shut out Tekos 11-0 in the second game with Dick Meyers collecting a single double and a triple and scoring 3 times. LATE MODEL, 50 LAP MID-SEASON CHAMPIONSHIP RACE SAT.
