(STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD) --EARL WALSH So I Hear SPORTS EDITOR While officiating a football game recently, Gary Fields ran into a situation that brought all of the officials into a huddle. I couldn't answer it. Could you? You will find Gary's note and explanation at the end of this column. Football Situation Following a toil^idown, the kicking team (K) Ricks off to the receiving team (R). R-l receives the ball on his yard line and advances it to his 30. At this point K-lgrasps R-i's face mask but does not tackle him. R-l continues running to the 50 yard line where he is tackled by K-2 and fumbles. K-3 recovers the fumble on his own 40 yard line. You are the referee. What options will be presented to the captains? When this issue hits the newsstands, the great election will be over and projections will be coming over the air. Campaigns are too long. Barrels of money are spent for a high position that pays much less than is forked over to top athletes. Of course, there is the honor and glory to be considered. Trouble is that honor and glory don't put bread and butter on your table. Some good men will go down the drain. Others will be voted out with the thought that they have done enough for their country or subdivision thereof. Voters get to the point where enough is too much. Time out to get the mail. Now, isn't this nice. Some firm wants to bury me. Not right away. But, if I send money, there will be no need for just a plain, ol(J pine box. After a comment in S.I.H. last week, Jim Curran phoned to ask, "Are you sitting down?" Nope. So we sat. Then he said he could name a couple of election opponents who are honorable men. It can happen here! That ill wind blew again and did some good. You should see all the leaves that blew onto Bill Kreutzer's yard. Those Chicago Bears football players who lined up to sign autographs at Overton's last Wednesday night must have thought it was a Soldier Field crowd coming through the gates. Those players are a jolly bunch How else could they sit there for hours developing writers' cramp. It wasn't only kids who went through that line. All ages were there. They must have come from miles around. Manufacturers of football uniforms have come up with shoulder pads, improved head guards and shoes that take husky men over the turf. Now, if they can come up with something to protect knees, it will help Never seem to go to the Green-Pearl when Mona is on duty, but know she is still in our corner. When we skipped an issue through illness and mentioned two people missing the column, Mona phoned to be listed as No. 3. Took in the last home Warrior football game of the season and saw our home team completely outclassed by the Wildcats of Libertyville. Our defensive team had a real workout. Just when our offense got something started those meanies from Liber tyville would take the ball. Our sophomores got troun ced, too. That doesn't look good for next year.

Earl - This is the football play we talked about. If a person knows the rules it is relatively Simple. This type of play is not that unusual, however, because it occurred on a kick-off you don't see it very often. Since the penalty is on K, the options are presented to the captain of R. R has two choices. He can take the results of the play, which would give K the foot ball, or he can take the penalty. The 15 yard penalty for grasping the face mask would be administered from the end of the run; In other words, from the spot of the fumble If R takes the penalty it will be his ball first and ten from K's 35 yard line. Gary Fields Last Wednesday the men battled for high game. R. Homo bowled a 211 game, but W. Coari edged him out with a 212. Coari had a 212, 178, 161 for a 550 series and Homo had a 211, 178, 161 for a 550 series. High games for the night were K. Lescher 178, N. Losch 171, J. Lescher and B. Thomp son 168, W. Farrell 167 and A. Boeldt 166. R. Homo picked up the 5-10 split, but L. Homo wasn't going to let him show her up She also picked up the 5- 10. B. Marcello picked off the 6- 7-10, N. Losch the 5-7, and C. Winters the 4,5,7. Notice Sports Pictures Since previous n( .icei (starting last fall) have not been noted, this will be run from time to time. Being unable to use the many group pictures sent in, a decision was made to discontinue all league groups except cham pionship teams. Pictures taken by our staff photographers of athletes on the high school level will be selected as to their importance. Individual pictures of various sports will be appraised as to their newsworthy value and available space. It was a flood of group pictures , last year that made this decision by the management necessary. BUY 4 GALLONS >tt. PAINT ' VA GET ONE GALLON VYCITAL'S HARDWARE 1228 N.

(STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD) Conclude Successful Golf Season By Dick Rabbitt The varsity golfers again finished a successful season with a well-balanced team. This year Coach Cuda could count on at least 9 golfers to help make this season a suc cess. Most of the matches were played with a 7 man varsity team, which gave Coach Cuda a chance to play many of the talented boys. The team finished with a remarkable 12 Wins - 2 Losses record and captured the Crown Invitational, and also came in 2nd in the strong North Suburban Conference. During each match, 3 or 4 boys usually put together some fine scores which made this team one of the outstanding McHenrv teams Boys who contributed heavily to this season were Tom Pepping. Jim Buenzli. Tim Byers, Robert Lunkenheimer, Robert Buss, Ron Pepping, Phil Kent, Steve Kivley, Mike Becker, and Pat Becker. All of the boys except Bob Buss will be back next year.

On Friday night the Warriors played the most exciting game in the short history of the tournament, when they defeated defending champion Mt. Carmel of Chicago 13 to 12 in a triple overtime. On Thursday the Warriors were defeated by champion Fenwick of Oak Park 18 to 3. After their loss toFenwick the Warriors roared back to win over Lyons of LaGrange for the fifth place spot Fenwick of Oak Park of the Chicago Catholic League won the meet and finished the season with a record of 26 wins and no defeats. The "Friars" over the past seven seasons have a record of 170 wins and 1 defeat, that coming in the finals last year to Mt Carmel Scoring results for the Warriors will be in Friday's paper Hurricanes Whip Green Wave 14-7 By Dick Rabbitt The Marian Central "Hurricanes" of Coach Tom Parker won a big game on Saturday when they defeated the "Green Wave" of St. Ed ward's of Elgin 14 to 7. The "Canes" came up with three big plays in the ball game that gave them the victory. Twice on defensive the gallant Marian eleven arose to the occasion, and in the final period a super pass play gave them the margin of victory. i The St. Edward's eleven led \ going into the final period, but an alert Marian defense sparked by defensive safety Gerry May withheld the Wave attack With 4th and 3 yards to go at the Marian five yard line, a pitchout by the Wave quar terback was tossed for a 10 yard loss. Later in the period Tony Huemann recovered a "Wave" fumble on the St. Edward's 32 yard line. Late in the final period the "Cane" eleven drove to the Wave 20. With 4th down and 10 facing the Marian team, Jim Ringness tossed a pass to Larry Oeffling good for a first down on the Wave 3 yard line. Paul LaBlanc ran in to the end zone for his second score of the day. In the final seconds May again proved himself the most valuable player of the game as he intercepted a "Wave" pass to insure the Hurricane victory. The win left thfe Marian team with a 4 and 2 conference record, and 5 and 3 overall. Next Saturday they close out the season at Benet I.C. of Elmhurst and Benet are tied for the West Suburban Con ference, and if the "Canes" can knock off Benet, and I.C. wins then the Elmhurst team will qualify for the state playoffs. In talking with Coach Tom Parker he was thrilled with the win over St. Ed's of Elgin. The young coach commented "Gerry May played an out standing game for us. From a safety position he made 7 solo tackles, had 5 assists, in tercepted a pass and recovered a fumbleAll I can add, that is a nice day's work for a safety man on a defensive team. Once again Paul LaBlanc was the workhorse of the Marian team. The senior halfback rushed for 182 yards in 26 carries for a new Marian school record. Coach Tom has promised me that he will give me all of Paul LaBlanc's stats for the season by next week. According to my records he has to be leading in the conference scoring or is mighty close. Don't forget fans, next week the game is at Benet in Lisle.
