J PAGE 6 - PLA1NDKA1 ER-WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 17, 1975 EARL WALSH So I Hear For many moons we tried to find somebody who knew the words to the old song "The Trail Of The Lonesome Pine". Now comes one White Sox pal Mona with a copy of the sheet music. It is a souvenir edition showing the cover of the first edition, 1913. Mona visited the Carl Fischer store in Chicago and found this rare copy. Anybody want the words? ' Our wife has played it for us on the piano. Now we may ask Lawrence Welk to play it some Sunday night. Wouldn't that be Wunnerful! < The football game here Friday night kept us on edge up to the last second as the Warriors beat the Dundee Cardunals 18-13. It had to be a real team effort to contain a couple of good ball .carries in the Dundee back- field. The program shows Rick Fitzgerald as a 5'2" - 127 pounder. _SPORTS EDITOR I , Rick is little -- but. Oh, My! Matt Bordes is a big fellow who simply plows his way through a line. One time we saw him limp off the field. Another time he left it appeared to be an elbow injury. But, the next time we looked up he was on the move. Warrior Brett Decker drew a lot of attention as he hauled in passes that nobody thought he could reach. He hauled in one with one hand that would do justice to a great outfielder. Seemed like Paul O'Malley Was a very active fellow whose defensive skill had to be noticed. Dundee had a couple of radio broadcasters in the press box. It is just great to have our games broadcast. But, let me tell thee, it will be greater when the new press box is built and a separate booth is provided for the radio men. * mm -• A SLIM LEAD for Warrior Mike White, of the Sophomore team during last Thursday's meet at West Campus.

Soph game is at 12 noon, varsity at 2 o'clock. The Johnsburg Saufen Und Spiel Fest drew a huge crowd last Sunday under pleasant skies. In a 56-unit parade, the Walshes had the pleasure of riding in Ted Spengel's Cadillac convertible. As Georgie Gobel would say "You don't hardly see those kind no more". Such a happy crowd make one think the world better if people got together more often for fun and talk. Came time to discard- the straw hats so we dragged out an old felt that is soft and comfortable. First our better half said it looked awful. Next came some pointed remarks from John Looze. That hat isn't so bad! Guess it will have to be worn on special occasions. Hats give us a problem. Wayne Gaylprd wanted our picture with a hat. So it was for a while. Then came remarks. Off went the hat. Some men say, "Put it back on and cover that bald head." The gals say, "Forget the hat." Such problems. Just watched a TV ad that shows a fellow putting a cream on his noggin to take the grey out. It looks good. Now to get the hair. Sometimes we think there would be less picketing if the TV cameras went away. Saw four different groups marching and decided it must be great for the show business. PICKUPS: Our forefathers thought nothing of working 16 hours a day. We don't think much of it either. RODE TO DECKER.

By Dick Rabbitt The McHenry High School "Fighting Warriors" continued on their winning ways last Friday night with an 18 to 13 win over the visiting Dundee Cardunals. It was the second win of the season, and the second win in the tough North Suburban Conference for Coach Bill Day's Warriors. The game pitted the strong, big experienced Cardunals against the small inex- pereinced Warriors, and the Warriors won out in the battle of the trenches. The game was won on the line of scrimmage, . and the Warriors rose to tne task. Playing against bigger men, the gallant Warrior front wall proved that size is not the only thing that matters in a football game. Guy Miller, Dave Kuechel, Gary Schweder, John Rudolph, Paul O'Malley, Brett Decker, Tom Lundelius, backed up by Tom Ludwig, Steve Mai, Don Rode, Jim Engmark, and Brian Nuss, along with" Jeff Damiani, Mike Mar; Craig Smith, Don Rice on the offense made the plays when they counted and walked off the field a winner 18 to 13. The Warriors took the kickoff back to their own 33. An in­ terference on a pass from Rode to Klapperich put the ball on the 47. A Dundee interception gave the Cards the ball on the Warrior 47. Five plays later Fitzgerald ran into the end zone for the Card's first score. Bordes' kick was good and at 8:22 of the opening period the Cards led by a score of 7 to 0. It took the Cards 7 plays to go 53 yds for the score. Taking the kickoff, Jim Engmark returned (to the Warrior 36. With Nuss and Rode carrying, the Warriors made a first down on the 46. Two plays later Rode hit Decker on a pass good for a first down on the Card 20. With the Card defense confused. Rode lobbed a pass to Hurckes who raced into the end zone for the T.D. at 3:41. The P.A T. was no good and Dundee led 7 to 6. The Cards took the kickoff and marched to the Warrior 21 at the end of the first period. A run and penalty put the ball on the Warrior 9 with goal to go. The defensive line took over and held on the 1 yd line.It was a great goal line stand by the defensive forward wall of the Warriors. The offense took over and Nuss ran to the 13, then Tommy Ludwig broke loose to the 36. (Tommy reversed his field twice, behind some fine blocking to gain the 23 yards) Nuss and Rode made another first down, and a penalty set the Warriors back. Rode then punted to the Card 8 yd line. The Warrior defense again held, and a quick kick was downed on the 47. Nuss made a first down on the 37.

It was just a super catch, the big husky end for the Warriors gathered in the ball as if it were a mere golf ball, and literally bowled his way over the goal line. The P A T. was wide and the Warriors led at halftime 12 to 7. The third quarter was rock and sock em football, with the line play dominating the game. Rode did, however, grab a bad snap from center on a punt and rambled 30 yds to the Car 19, but they held and took over on the 12. The Cards then took over and marched to the Warrior 37 at the end of the third period. GREAT INTERCEPTION With the Cards still in control of the ball at the outset of the final period they ran into a series of penalties that set them back in their own territory. On third and long yardage, Jim Engmark intercepted a Dundee pass and raced 57 yds only to be brought down on the 1 yd line. It was a great run, and likewise the lanky senior had blocking all the way down the south sidelines, but, Fitzgerald came out of nowhere to make the tackle on the one. Dundee tightened its defense and held for three downs. With everyone lined up for a plunge into the line, Rode calmly stepped back and hit Decker all alone in the end zone for the final Warrior score. The P.A.T. again was no good and the local eleven led 18 to 7 with 9 minutes remaining. Taking the ball on their own 40 after the kickoff, the Cards managed in two plays to pick up 2 yards. On a halfback pass Boedigheimer threw a 52 scoring pass to Mark Bethke with 7:26 remaining in the game. The P.A.T. was no good and the Warriors led 18 to 13. After the kickoff both teams exchanged punts, and the Warriors took over on their own 42. With 4th and 13, a roughing the kicker penalty against the Cards gave the Warriors possession on the 27 and they ran out the clock for their second win of the year. In talking with Coach Day after the game he made this comment. "I was pleased with our defense as the game progressed". He also claimed thatJne tackles decided to stay in their area, rather than go after the ball. Later he commented, "If the team continues to improve, and not take our opponents too lightly, we could be a contender all the way". All in all it was a good Warrior win. The line play both on offense and defense was outstanding. As any fan knows the game is won up front, and the Warriors proved that Friday night. It will be back to hard work this week, as the Libertyville "Wildcats" are the next opponent. They are itching for their first win, and the Warriors had better be prepared. I'm sure the coaching staff knows this, and will do everything in their power to have the Warriors ready. Hope to see all of you fans at Libertyville next Saturday afternoon.
