| Sweet Swing h Of Success Two of the McHenry golfers who were instrumental in leading their team to Springfield for the state finals this weekend are Tim Byers and Tom Pepping. Tuesday, over the highly rated course at Lake Bluff, Pepping shot a 76 and Byers 77, to go along with Jim Buenzli's 73. Those three low scores helped offset the fact that McHenry had to count an 87 in its team score of 313. Pepping shot his 76 despite taking a quadruple bogey 8 on the first hole he played. Byers shot his 77 despite going out of bounds on one hole. STAFF PHOTOS-WAYNE GAYLORD McHenry Hornets Football On Sunday, Oct, 16, 1977 the McHenry Hornets traveled to Round Lake to play the Round Lake Panthers, last year's N.I.J.F.L.' champions, and holder of a 15 game winning streak. McHenry received the kickoff and on the third play of the game the Panthers in­ tercepted a pass and raced 35 yards for a touchdown. The extra point was good and after only 2 minutes gone in the game Round Lake led 7-0. The Hor­ nets received the kickoff and marched 60 yards before losing the ball on downs. The Pan­ thers could not move the ball against the strong defense of the Hornets, and were forced to punt. Again the Hornets moved down the field, only to lose the ball on the 18 yard line. Round Lake again had to punt to McHenry. The Hornets moved to the R.L. 35 yard line. Jim Stedman, quarterback then threw a pass to John Brzenk, who caught it on the 14 yard line, and with the help of some nifty running, scored. McHenry missed the extra point and the half time score was Panthers 7, Hornets 6. In the second half McHenry kicked off to the Panthers and after 3 plays Round Lake was forced to punt. McHenry again moved down the field, only to lose the ball on downs at the 7 yard line. On the Panthers second play John Brzenk, defensive end for the Hornets, recovered a fumble for a touchdown. The extra point was missed and McHenry led 12 to 7. After exchanging punts and 8 minutes and 35 seconds showing on the clock the Hornets started their final march down the field. With just 1:45 showing on the clock, Jim Stedman raced 14 yards on an end sweep to score. McHenry 18-Panthers 7. With 23 seconds Round Lake scored on a long pass, when the Hornet defender slipped on pass coverage. Final score Hornets 18-Panthers 13. After receiving the kickoff the Hornets ran out the clock.

Childhood Diseases Has your child been im­ munized against diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough? Against polio, measles, and German measles?

None of them look anything like their namesakes. Yet they all have things in common. One is that they are famous eaters, with lots of teeth. Frogfish, for example, have rows of conical-shaped teeth which begin at the jaws and extend back into the mouth, in­ cluding teeth on the tongue. They are voracious predators and will eat almost anything small enough to get into their mouths. Fortunately, frogfish don't grow larger than six inches long. A goosefish is a different story. It has a large, flat head with an enormous toothfilled mouth, and grows to weigh 50 pounds. Its favorite foods include most other species of fish, all kinds of sea birds, plus lobsters and crabs for dessert. While freshwater anglers will never see these odd fish species, the fishing department at Mercury outboards says that saltwater anglers are likely to catch all three since they do live in coastal waters. Goosefish range from New­ foundland south, while batfish and frogfish are found in tropical waters of both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Perhaps the strangest of the trio is the batfish. Seldom more than 12 inches long, it has a cellence in the various com­ petitions during the season. The club meets at the American Legion home on Ringwood road. The meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month, with a starting time of 8 p.m. Anyone interested in joining the club may attend.

D. C. -- Joe Garagiola has voiced a solid thought. He complains that when a pitched ball strikes a batter's bat acciden­ tally, even if it's over the batter's head, it's automatical­ ly a strike. Joe is right. The rule should be changed-so that umpires call the pitch as they see it. Also absurd are several other baseball rules. Sports writers and umpires could, if a committee were formed, bring common sense to bear and improve them. Pitchers need better meas­ urement. Often fine, sustained performances go unrewarded and a reliefer who comes in for an out or two becomes the winner--via today's rules. The first pitcher might have held the opposition well in hand for eight innings. How and when a FRIDAY. OCTOBER 21, 1977 run or two is scored late in the game, however, determines the winning pitcher. Also, too many misplays, lousy plays or goofups, where­ in fielders miss balls they should have caught or handled, are scored as hits. This is hometown scorers' charity or generosity.
