35 On The Sidelines By Dick Robbitt The Warriors are going to try and make amends for the double loss last weekend, when they play at Cary-Grove tonight. Although they lost to Woodstock at the buzzer, there is no doubt in the minds of the fans present at the game that the Warriors were by £ar the better team. With the season near the mid point it is about time that the Warrior basketball players begin to believe in themselves. They can play a lot better than they have shown, and if I have one thing to say to them, it is "Quit making those foolish fouls in the backcourt away from the ball". The "Rassling Warriors" are still troubled Jay illness and injuries. One of these days Coach Marty Sobczak will have ia healthy squad and then opponents beware of the Warriors. ( f ^ The girls basketballvteam is showing signs of improvement. They really blasted Antioch Monday night, and are looking for a big win tomorrow over Dundee. Mike Shanahan's swimmers are showing their heels to some opponents. With a small squad the genial coach is doing a wonderful job. Congratulation to Carrie Freund for setting a school record in the 200 freestyle. Former student, mother Nancy, is really smiling these days, or growling at me. Looking forward to the Johnsburg Old Timers baseball dinner on the 22nd. According to Billy Oeffling, tickets are still available. Contact Harry May or Jerry Wakitsch. It is a great time, fun for all, and we Sox fans have two speakers this year, the big Moose and little Harry Chappis. Anyway it is for a good cause, all proceeds go to the Johnsburg scholarship fund. The McHenry High Boosters Club is asking for alumni help. They need players to participate in their annual alumni game on Saturday Feb. 17. Eleswhere in this edition you will find the details. Can't resist telling this story, as it probably happened to many of you during the Bowl games on new Years day. Coach Bill Day and I have a standing bet on Notre Dame teams in bowl games. I naturally take the Irish. With 8:00 remaining and the Irish losing 34-12,1 receive a phone call to come immediately over to his home and pay off my debt. I obliged, and in a humble posture before friends from Batavia knelt down and paid off the one dollar debt. Lo and behold minutes later during the Rose Bowl game, it is announced that the Irish had overcome great odds and won 35 to 34. The procedure was then reversed, and I was on the receiving end of the payoff. As I told the crowd gathered the Day home, "The Gripper came back to life again". Just to show you how the basketball team at Quincy High School rates in the community, last week I spent a couple of days in Quincy due to a death in the family. When the state ratings came out after the holidays and Quincy was rated number one, the headlines in the Quincy paper said "BLUE DEVILS NUMBER ONE IN STATE". Quincy is a community of over 60,000 people, and I'm sure vWith the size and . coverage of their newspaper there should have been other world or local events that would take up the headlines. But no, the basketball team is first in the hearts of the community. With a gym that seats over 5,000, they allow visiting teams 100 seats per game. All the rest are on a season ticket basis?. No tickets are sold at the door, except when they play a Chicago Public school : , team, and know that they won't bring 100 fans. Johnsburg Sophomores Down Round Lake 42-34 ItMl Sfftrtt «f H AT OLDTIMER'S CLUB DINNER-The diminitive Harry Cbappas, who made a very impressive showing last fall when the White Sox brought the speedy shortstop up to the big leagues from Class A, will be one of the featured guests at the Johnsburg Oldtimer's club dinner Jan. 22. Former Sox player Moose Skowron will be the featured speaker and Larry BUtner of the Cubs Is also scheduled to attend the dinner*at the Johnsburg Community club. Chappas, who stands just 5'3" and weighs 150 lbs., batted a respectable .267 in 20 games and did an outstanding job in the infield as he handled 92 chances, many of them difficult, without a single bobble. , Railroads, Inc. 16'/j. 39»/2 L. Kescher By Tom Fowler The Johnsburg high school sophomore basketball team defeated Round Lake 42-34 Tuesday night. The high point men for Johnsburg were guard Rick Neiss, who had 12, and center Frank Jakubicek, who had 11. Sophomore coach Jim Albright said that the team is playing well together, especially when a lot of them didn't even play basketball together last season. The sophomores have a 6-4 overall record and 1-2 con­ ference record. Their next game is tonight against Har­ vard in the Johnsburg gym.

School and bowling started off together, both suffering, from absenteeism due to the tjerrific Illinois weather...or too much holiday. Those who were present did some pretty good bowling. For the men we had R. Weidemann, 198, 194 - 581; W. Farrell, 193 - 525; G. Hubbard, 197 - 518; and B. Bittermann, 206. E. Rogers was the solo female winner with a 201 and a 526 series For good bowling, we have E. Rogers and R. Weidemann who raised their averages by 2 pins, and for "not-so-good" bowling we have a "winner" in R. Glawe who dropped 3 pins from his average. L. Homo and R. Glawe picked off the 4-10, S. Vitale took the 5- 10, and B. Bittermann got the 3- 7-10. The only entertainment provided was by A. Street who got mixed up and thought the alley was behind her and then bowled. The pizza winners for the New Year were FARRELL'S FOLLIES, and I'm getting ready to take both first place and eating crown away from them, agreed? Standings got a jolt, so read and see what I mean.

OPEN SUNDAY FOX LAKE j Collectibles No Help For Kidney Machine Time For those who have been collecting such items as computer price codes, aluminum pull tabs, and cigarette wrappers in the hopes * of buying someone tirhe on the kidney machine -- please stop. These collections are based on unfounded rumors. Though the thought behind the action is most admirable, there's little good it can do. Presently, there are no shor­ tages of kidney machines and no one in need, regardless of age. is denied dialysis treat­ ments At $25,000 per year> the treatments are quire ex­ pensive. But in 1973, the Social Security act was amended to pick up 80 percent of the cost of chronic dialysis. The remaining 20 percent is covered by the Illinois Department of Public Health. Public i Aid. or private in­ surance. Of course, there are still financial hardships for the individuals involved, but un­ fortunately, they cannot be solved by collecting refuse. While there is no shortage of kidney machiens, there is a ^severe shortage of organ donors in Illinois. Hundreds of kidney patients are waiting for a kidney transplant, but only one in five will receive a transplant because of this shortage. If more people sign an organ donor card, more kidney patients will have a chance for a kidney transplant - literally the "Gift of Life." One can pick up an organ donor card when - renewing a driver's license, or contact the Kidney foundation For groups or individuals who have already accumulated a large number of pull tabs, they can be redeemed at aluminum recycling centers for 17 cents a pound The funds received from this source can be used in any manner a person chooses. There are a variety of ways in which donations and volunteer efforts are used by the Kidney Foundation Of Illinois in its fight against kidney disease. Public support of all kfflds is needed to expand the foun­ dation's programs in research, organ donations, information and referral services, patient services, and professional and public education Patient service programs include free medical alert tags, emergency transportation, drug banks, literature and workshops.
