:•> • - # 4 0 On The Sidelines , By Dick Rabbitt The Warriors played as well as could be expected in, the Elgin Holiday Tourney. They beat a well disciplined St. Edward's crew in the first game 52 to 50, and then after a super first half, fell to runnerup Ridgewood 46 to 27. The full court pressure defense of the Rebels was too much for the Warriors as they scored only nine second half poinU/ However, Coach ;Ludwig was pleased with his team, ind when the popular coach is pleased during the holidays, that means trouble for the opponents in the second half of the season. An interesting note of the Elgin tournament was the play of Schaumburg's Kent Payne in his game against Fremd. Fremd will be tomorrow night's opponent of the Warriors. The 6'2" guard had 15 of 25 from the field for a nifty sixty percent, and from the charity line had a whopping 16 for 16 for a perfect 100 percent shooting average. His forty-six points established a tourney record, erasing the forty-two by Barrington's Ike Person in last year's tourney -Gordon Tech of Chicago beat Ridgewood in the finals, and again as usual I was wrong in picking the winner. Credit must go to an old freind John Lescher who took the Gordon Tech Rams to win the tourney. I wonder how he picked the Bowl games? Congratulations to Pam Schaefer and her McHenry High girls' basketball team. They won third place in the tough North Chicago Holiday tourney. It is hopeful that before the deadline I will get some results. Congratulations to Jr. Rivera from* Marty Sobczak's "Rassling Warriors" for his fifth place finish in the tough Harvard tourney. The Harvard tourney is one of the best tourneys in this part of the state during the Christmas Holidays. Many a state champion emerged from this tournament. Congratulations to Coach Bob Kies and his Sky hawks for winning the Hampshire tourney this past week. They overcame great odds to win the tourfiey and they are deserving champions. Rex Hester's McHenry High freshmen won the recent Johnsburg freshmen tourney, winning three games without a lossyThe ex-Marian great is proving to be an asset to the Warrior toacKing * And out of high school athletics mtffthe college ranks, the firing of Coach Woody Hayes of Ohio State for his sideline conduct in the Gator Bowl is for the best for college football. Like many of the writers quoted, "It is about time". I have heard Coach Hayes speak many times, and thought that he was the greatest clinic speaker that I have ever heard. As a high school coach,, he made you feel that „ you were the most important person on the face of the earth. It is too bad that he didn't practice what he preached. A belated New Years greeting to all Warrior fans, and may the year 1979 bring victory after victory in all athletic accomplishments. . A- : . . .

BITS ABOUT More and more men are l iving alone and loving i t . Gone is the t i red stereo­ type of an unhappy, unmar­ ried man l iving in a hovel , just wait ing for a woman to rescue him. Today's inde­ pendent male is set t ing up a l ife of his own. in set­ t ings of his own choosing. "But he has a long way to go before he possesses the decorating confidence that 's natural tb a woman," says Spiros Zakas--author, edu­ cator and interior designer. "Somehow, women find i t easier to express their per­ sonali t ies through decora­ t ing their environment." he says. Zakas, who does houses and apartments, as well as banks, restaurants, off ices, hotels and furni­ ture, has some advice for the man. "Designing your house is one act ivi ty in which you must be self-centered. Re­ member, your home"^. for your comfort . Bg|ore you purchase the f irst i tem, you must be wil l ing to look at yourself and examine the pattern of your l i fe at home--then you can begin to design *for your own origi­ nal self ," says Zakas. "Careful considerat ion of your l i fe pattern--the things you do and the things you'd l ike to do--will determine how you furnish your space. The most diff icult s tage in designing any l iving space is the very beginning. I t ' s in developing a new ap-> proach. looking honestly at ' youc l i fe and environment and real izing that there isn ' t a ready-made plan or s tyle that can be f i t ted to your l i fe« When you buy an instant " look," you end up making your l i fe f i t the s tyle," he c^atinued. A well-designed home should insteadTfulfi l l the functions of /your l ife. Zakas thinks the tradit ion of having different functions assigned to different rooms, as in a dining room to eat in , i s both res t r ic t ive and impract ica l .
