PAGE 6 - PLAINDEALER • FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 8.1980 SfTOS THE LONG ONE-by Warrior Bob Greve, with four seconds remaining in the first quarter, was good and brought the Warriors within a point. Greve hit well from the outside, scoring 11 points, but the Warriors fell by one.

When wide lapels came in, my wardrobe was not so hot. Now that the narrow ones are back, I'm in like Flynn. ' -:- . In fact, if you like an­ tiques, start putting things in storage right now. Just wait a hundred years and those items will rate a big price tag. Collegiate athletics are on a hot seat with investigations in full swing. In the past, the old' coverup kept star athletes on the football field or basketball court with only a speaking acquaintance with the class rooms. Many years ago a college football coach said to me, "Just tell them to be honest". When a politician or anybody else says, "I don't m i n d c o n s t r u c t i v e criticism", he is talking through his hat. Come to think of it, is there such a thing as constructive criticism? Constructive teaching -- yes. Criticism -- no. Such skeptics as Joe Wagner and Herb Reihan- sperger are making snide remarks about the chances of getting a bus load to at­ tend a White Sox game next summer. They sneer at the report that Fox Hole Evo has more applications than he can possibly accommodate. Just doubting Thomases. If the Chicago schools don't get out of the terrible mess, the students may have to form their own union. Times have changed. When I was in grade school, the pipes froze and school had to close. Kids were happy. Today the kids want to go to school. Don Bentz, Sr. came in with some complimentary tickets for a basketball game at Rockford College where his son attends this year. They are calling it "Johnsburg High School Nite" and printed Don Jr.'s picture on the tickets. f Date of the game is Feb. 13 when Judson College will face the Rockford College team. Seaver Gym is the location. Time: 7:30 p.m. If any of you would like to attend the game, see Don Sr. He will give you a com­ plimentary ticket as long as his supply lasts. I have some. too. Just ask. You may be sure a crowd will attend the game from this area. Karen Kent, no stranger,to our door, came a-callin' with some old ads from the days of the Empire Theater in McHenry. The year is not shown, but some of you may remember "Rosalie" with Nelson Eddy and Eleanor Powell. There was "Tarzan's Revenge", "Wells Fargo" with Joel McCrea, and others. Such big names as Clark Gable, Claudette Colbert and Dick Powell are listed in the coming attractions. That goes back a spell, but you don't have to be too darned ancient to remember.

"GOOD NEWS" BEARS - The basketball game so many fans have been looking forward to is only a day away. The McHenry Warriors Boosters Club members are, buzzing With excitement and selling tickets right and left. Chicago Bears football players in basketball garb will meet a team of McHenry faculty members (all males, I suppose) at 8 p.m. Saturday night at West Campus. You can expect to see rugged play with some out of the ordinary formations on a basketball court. Previous to the "Gooct News" game, MCHS Alumni players will try to see if their one time skill has left them. It should be a fun night. Over 100 Junior Bowlers will be participating in a Bowl-A-Thon to strike out lung disease on February 16, at Edgetown Bowl in Woodstock for the DuPage- McHenry Lung Association. The Junior Bowlers will seek sponsors to pledge a certain amount for each pin bowled in a three game series. Prizes will be awarded to bowlers who collect pledges from the most sponsors. Mrs. Loretta Kohl, Lung Association board member, Woodstock, said, "thgjiowl- A-Thon will be a community effort between the Junior Bowlers and the people of McHenry county to help raise funds to support the DuPage-McHenry Lung Association's summer camp for asthmatic children." Ronnie O'Krie, Junior League coordinator at Edgetown Bowl will be working closely with Lung Association volunteers Mrs. Kohl and Mrs. Joseph Jannotta, Harvard, to help make this exciting bowling r event a success. For more information call your lung association in Woodstock, 338-6675. Winter Activities At Moraine State Park Cold weather activities have finally commenced at Moraine Hills State Park and several changes have been prescribed at the facility to remedy the most stubborn case of cabin fever. Cross country skiers will discover a well marked system of one-way trails meandering through the upland forest and low lying marsh and bog com­ munities. Site Superin­ tendent John Schweder stated, "The decision to convert to one-way trails was based on recom­ mendations we received from ski trail consultants who anticipate overcrowded conditions on busy days?" Intermediate skiers will be challenged by the 4 mile Leatherleaf Bog and 3.5 mile Lake Defiance trails. The shorter Fox River trail, 2.5 miles in length, is ideal for beginning skiers. All trails are color coded and maps indicating their layout are posted at each day use area. Warming facilities and a lunchroom are available in the Park office. Winter anglers will be pleased to learn that Lake Defiance is now open to ice fishing for the first time since the park opened in 1976. According to District Fishery Biologist, Harvey Brown, "The initial fishing pressure during the summer months has not been as heavy as anticipated and a good supply of panfish, primarily bluegill and crappie, is available for fishermen." Site specific regulations are posted at Defiance and the three Northern Lakes. Fishermen should consult them to enusre that they are in compliance with the law. Moraine Hills is located on River road, three miles south of McHenry. A visit to the park may be in order to sample some of the remedies offered for cabin fever. You may find yourself hooked oi\ an exciting alternative to the winter doldrums. On The Sidelines By Dick Rabbi" # * Fans who attended the Warrior vs. Crown game last # Friday night are still talking about the shooting and play $ of both dubs. "Orange Night" was celebrated in fine %. fashion. Don Wattles came to the game in a orange shirt with £:• WARRIORS NO. 1 stamped on the back, also was seen g with a orange hat, and orange socks. Judge Herrmann :i:j had a nifty orange sport coat on, and the old Irishman •!:: John McGee was wearing a bit of the orange. S.I.H. got by on a slim excuse, claimed his attire had a g bit of orange, but many in press row felt otherwise, g Although the Warriors dropped the game, it was a g successful night from the crowd standpoint. And they saw a real ball game. Tomorrow night the Good News Bears will be in town. Tickets are available at the door. Alumni game at 6:30 p.m. and the Bears against the faculty at 8 p.m. Some big names are expected from the Bears, and they &: put on a good show. Due to the efforts of Coach Joe Schlender, Warrior $ football coach, the Fox Valley Coaches are sponsoring a jij: football clinic at "West Campus in March. It will be a jiji program for junior high school coaches, high school jij: coaches, and youth football. Each class in Illinois football will be represented, and $ there are some top names on the program. Mike O'Neil of g St. Laurence of the Chicago Catholic League, the Class 4AA state champion coach Jim Rexilus of Wheaton North, j:|: Carlin Nalley of Lisle High School, who has a team make jij: the playoffs every year. Our good friend Rod Poppe from Si Marengo who a few years ago had a 45 game winning g: streak, and the Coach of the Class 1A team, Ron EUett of g: Hampshire. We will give more information later, but for you jij: coaches who read this column, put March 29th down as a £! date to be at West Campus. The Warriors are at Crystal Lake South tonight, and £! Tuesday they travel to Dundee. Two wins would put the ;iji Warriors right up there in the Fox Valley, and the way they have been playing lately, it could happen this next g week. Marty Sobczak will take his wrestlers to Crystal Lake j:|: Central for* the Fox Valley conference tourney tonight g and tomorrow. The Warriors could make some waves g over the weekend. Gary Gray has the girls on the right track, and they are g showing improvement every game. Matt Nierman picked up a second place in the diving g last Saturday for the Warriors in the conference tourney. g Hope to have all the final results by next week. We go back to the 1909-70 season this week, for a game : the Warriors played against the Dundee Cardunals. The : Warriors won big 81 to 58, but the outstanding item about ;g : the game, is that the Warriors had all 12 players who participated score in the game.

Hosier Totals: Skyhawks Victim Of Eagles By Randy Swikle Tuesday was another disappointing night for the Johnsburg Skyhawks as they fell 70-60 victims of the Jacobs Golden Eagles on the Skyhawk home court. Numerous turnovers and poor shooting percentages plagued the Skyhawks throughout the game. The Johnsburg club managed a 9-8 lead at the end of the first quarter, but the advantage turned to a deficit with a 21- 31 half time score. With five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, the Skyhawks managed to come within two points of the Golden Eagles, 48-46. But it only took Jacobs two minutes to regain a 10- point lead. Three of Johnsburg's starters fouled out during the game. Rick Neiss left the game with five fouls with 1:37 remaining on the clock. Tom Schoenig fouled out at :36 and a technical foul was called on Brett Zimbrick, giving Jacobs a 3-point scoring opportunity. Kuri Valentin left the game at :04, a few moments after his younger brother Scott stole the ball and scored. Tom Schoenig led John­ sburg scorers with 23 points. Zimbrick had 8 points and Kurt Valentin had 7 points. For Jacobs, Mark Hudson netted 25 on the strength of S. Valentin five field goals and 15 free Neiss throws. Hudson missed only Novy two free throws during the night. Totals: Johnsburg's next two games are against Harvard on Feb. 15 at home and against South Beloit on Feb. 19 away.
