RIVERSIDE OR. 385-8093 The McHenry High Warriors of Ken Ludwig will take the floor tonight for their final game , of the season when they host the Crystal Lake Central Tigers. It will be Parents Night, where in pre-game ceremonies the parents of the varsity players and cheerleaders will be honored. At halftime the parents of the senior Pom- Pon girls will also be honored. The Warriors will be fighting to hold on to second place in the Fox Valley in the game against the Tigers: Fresh from a win over last place Cary Grove in a dull, uninteresting game, the Warriors should go all out to defeat the Tigers and get ready for the regional next week. The Tigers of Tom Wilkins are 6 and 7 in league play. and have had their ups and downs this season. The Warriors won the first game back in January, 76 to 61, in a game that was a lot closer than the score indicates. The Warrior defense will have to beef up to stop the outside shooting of Preston McLaurin, and Graves. These two lads can hit the bucket from anywhere on the floor. The Warriors, who are undefeated on the road in conference play, owe their fans a big win at home in the season's final. With a hale and healthy crew, the Ludwig coached team should come out a winner. Let's give them a rousing sendoff in the season's final game. • • * • Few industrialists be­ lieve that their concerns have made excessive profits. ALEXANDER LUMBER CO.
