Editor's Quote Book Choose thy friends like thy books, few but choice. James Howell SPORTS EDITOR ! People we meet along the trail. First, we met Larry Nim- sgern at the Rotary Club dinner Sunday and asked him how the ball game was coming. The Cubs weren't playing so Larry had no idea. After all, it was only the World Series. Later we found out that the Big Red Machine had evened the series with a 3-2 win over the Boston Red Sox. That gave Frank Low all he needed to pour it on about his National League. Just wait. Gene Morenz was talking about that 20-million dollar Michigan dome where the Chicago Bears didn't win again. When Gene was a young fellow he worked in Comiskey Park and still likes the old brick and mortar. He even likes Wrigley Field! Then we met Ed Betke. We have seen him around for a long time, but didn't know his name. Ed wanted to know what we were going to write in this column. Had to explain that we didn't have a brain cell working so would have to wait and see. He gave us one idea that will have to wait for the right time. Had a talk with our friend Dick Rabbitt and agreed that we will follow the original plan. Dick will cover all of the MCHS sports. Other reports are to be sent directly to the Plaindealer sports department. Dick does a great job of covering high school sports. That's all we ask. Rules changes have now come to high school baseball. They will now be able to use a designated hitter. More about that when the snow melts. The question is, "What's better than a cup of coffee when you get up in the morning?" Two cups. For the first time in his healthy life "Red" Winkel has been hospitalized. Things are different now. he has a TV in his room and can watch the World Series. Before TV and before radios were in every house and some pockets, a dealer brought a small set into a hospital ward where we were doing time so the boys could hear a heavyweight prize fight. Liked the definition of a green light at a stop and go corner. It's a signal for the driver in back of you to blast his horn. It is just as well not to dwell on that football game last Friday night. Barrington has a team that is big and fast. They snap into every play like they are heading for pay dirt. Tom Parsley, who broad­ casts the games with Vern Petersen, said that Barrington had scored 243 points in 5 games while holding their opponents to 55. Nuff said. Our congratulations to Coach Chuck Cuda and his McHenry High golf team. They won the district meet and now advance toward the state championship. Chuck has a young team. Watch 'em again next year. Parkland Vikings Win Softball Title The Parkland Viking Softball team, led by Coach Gene Maris, captured the first place trophy in the newly formed Fox Valley Eight Conference. These eighth grade boys won all seven of their games by margins ranging from eight to twenty- six runs.

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT Wayne & Marie Webb By Dick Rabbitt In an awesome display of power the Barrington Broncos defeated the McHenry Warriors 41 to 6 Friday night at McCracken Field. Bryan Amis the conference's leading scorer tallied four times to bring his season total to 19. Leo George added 5 P A T. to bring his season mark to'25. Not only did the Bronco offense roll up 388 yds. but their defense limited the McHenry eleven to 119 for the night. The Bronco win, with the Zion loss has each of these teams with a 5 and 1 record with three games remaining on the schedule. Mike Mai returned the opening kickoff back to the 44 yd. line. After three plays Tommy Ludwig punted to the Barrington 23. The Warriors held the Big Red machine, and it looked like it might be a game, but a pass interception gave the Broncos the ball on the Warrior 29. Three penalties put the ball back on the 35, and Barrington failed to get the necessary yardage the Warriors took over on the 37. Failing to gain, the Warriors again punted as the quarter ended, the Broncos had the ball on theif* own 44. Another penalty set them back five more yards, then Amis on two carries brought the ball to the Warrior 40. Shellenback then hit Phil Weyer with a 40 yd. touchdown pass, and George's kick was good and Barrington led 7 to 0 at 10:36 of the second period. After George's kickoff into the end zone, the Warriors put the ball in play on the 20. On 4th and 7, Ludwig on a running punt put the ball out of bounds on the 45. Amis in two carries went to the 14. Then he scooted off tackle untouched for the touch­ down, and George added the P A T. for a 14 to 0 score. The Warriors started a march, picking up two first downs, but a double reverse resulted in a fumble, and the threat was stopped. Each team exchanged punts, and the Broncos went off at halftime leading 14 to 0. Bucaro's kickoff was returned by Jaminez to the Warrior 47 yard line. George and Amis teaming up made a first down on the 36. Shellen­ back on a roll out raced to the 14. The Warriors dug in and held for three downs. On 4th and 7, a fake field goal attempt resulted in a Bronco touch­ down. Shellenback took the ball and threw it toward the end zone, a Warrior deflected the pass into the hands of Amis for the T.D. The P.A.T. was good and Barrington led 21 to 0. The deflected pass for the T.D. seemed to take the starch out of the Warriors. Until that time they were still in the ball game, even though trailing 14 to 0. After the kickoff a Warrior Murphy, Troy Krafa, Horacio Fernandez, Jim Connor, Jim Johnson and Rob Roewer.

Grunnah and Amis took the ball to the 10, and with 5:04 remaining in the period Amjs went in for another T.D. A short punt resulted in the third Barrington touchdown of the period. Starting on the 45. Shellenback and Amis went to the 14. In three carries Amis again went in for his fourth T.D. of the night. The P.A.T. was wide and the score was 34 to 0. Midway in the final period the Warriors perked up and got on the score board. Starting on their own 35 the Warriors with Nuss carrying made a first down on the 45. A Rode to Decker pass was good for another first down on the Broncos 45. In a nice display of running Rode raced to the 33. On a halfback pass Nuss passed to Dodge who was knocked out of bounds short of the goal line. Tommy Ludwig then went in for the T.D. and the score was 34 to 6. A Warrior fumble on the 18 set the stage for the final score of the game. Jaminez went in from two yards out and George s kick was good and the final score read 41 to 6. There is no doubt in the minds of those who saw the game, that the Barrington Broncos are a fine football team. They are a lot better than people thought they were.' The block, they tackle, they execute well, they have fine overall team speed. To sum it all up the Warriors were beaten by a better team. Saturday the Warriors travel to Crown. It will be a good chance for the Warriors to get back on the winning track. You can bet they will be giving everything they have in practice this week.
