".. . A lot of water has gone over the dam in those 44 years. Somehow something always happens to keep me from losing enthusiasm for people, sports and a mixture of this and that. Guess they will have to carry me out with my boots on to get rid of me. Had a surprise visit from Grandma Shober, visiting here fr daughter (now Mueller), daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Art Diedrich. brought her to the door and had me guessing. If you ever saw a chipper 88 year old girl, she is Grandma Shober. One recollection was the famous turtle soup served at the Art Shober tavern located at Claremont Hill, 111. Rte. 31 and Johnsburg Road. Grandma met Fred Smith's daughter Marie in Tucson. It was nice to have her call at our house. It is Tuesday. The weatherman said it would be a 95 degree day. Only a cool 90 at our house. Met a fellow who collects old bottles. He wondered where he could find one from the old McHenry Brewery. They must be as scarce as hen's teeth. Anything can happen in baseball. The Pirates swept a series from the Phillies, packed their bags and came to Wrigley Field where the Cubs beat them 15-2. Just asked our dear editor Tuesday morning if she had seep Clyde Blackwell, everybody's favorite 89 year old. She had.

When we arrived at the club house, the golfing was over and the fun Was just beginning. to a worthy cause, the American Cancer Society. Our Ace Photographer, Wayne Gaylord, was Johnny- on-the-spot to take a picture of the happy group. You will see it in this issue. Karen Funk "paste up" girl at the Plaindealer, visited her uncle and aunt, Alex and Elvera Justen, in Colorado and had a great time. She was also happy to report seeing the Bryan-Sharon Klontz family in Lakewood. Have a letter from Sharon (one of "Earl's Girls") that I must get around to answering. Sharon says they love it in their new home. PICKUPS: The English language is funny.

Shouts of joy were heard all over the course as good drives made their way straight to the greens and long putts slid into Sentinel Mile the hole. A few sad faces were seen as the little white ball hit the sand traps or flew out of bounds. but it was all in fun for the ladies who gathered from all over McHenry County to play golf and give their support to the Cancer Crusade.
