Gray's Girls Play Great Basketball To , Beat C.L. Central 60-54 By Dick Rabbitt Playing before the largest home crowd of the year, the McHenry High girls' basketball team defeated Crystal Lake Central 60t54 last' Thursday night. . The girls fell behind 12 to 4 in the early minutes of the opening period, but baskets by Sue Hutchinson and Terri Bohlman, along with a layup by Vicki Kopsell narrowed the gap to 16 to 12 at the end of the period. In the second period with the same trio hitting the bucket the Warriors edged ahead of the Tigers and went into the locker room leading 25 to 22. The third period saw the Tigers duet of Bacon and Parish take command, and the Tigers forged ahead at the end of the period 37 to 35. In the final quarter, Gary Gray's crew really played some kind of basketball. With Bohlman hitting from the outside, and Hutchinson sneaking underneath for easy layups, the Warriors took command midway in the period. With 4:00 remaining the Warriors led 57 to 45, and then hit a cold spell. The Tigers rallied to come within four, but Sue Hutchinson sunk a 15 footer, and that put out the Tiger fire, as the Warriors hung on for the victory. To some it was a mild upset, the Warriors beating the Tigers, but to Warrior fans it was no such thing. The Warriors have improved greatly over the last half of the season, and were at their best on Thursday night. This week T they open regional play at Crystal Lake South, again playing the Tigers in their opening SURROUNDED, Vicki Kopsell of the Warriors prepares to fire over the heads of a pair of Crystal Lake Tigers last Thursday night.

But, Les Pulfer of the Illinois Department of Agriculture thinks that may change. Fructose is a liquid natural sugar which can be made from corn and other raw materials. Pulfer believes Midwestern farmers will benefit if such corn sweeteners catch on. After all, he said, it's still another market for a corn crop that continues to grow. • • * * Never be ashamed of what you are satisfied is correct.

LAKE REGION SPORTS CAR CLUB McHENRY TEAM WINSRALLYE The driver-navigator team of Wayne and Mary Gaylord of McHenry was victorious in the Crossword Puzzle Rallye sponsored by the!Lake Region Sports Car club (LRSCC) last Sunday. The Gaylords, in a MGB, edged out the Chevy Caprice team of Paul and Judi Musschoot of Barrington Hills. It was one of the closest finishes in LRSCC history that found six of the 12 tearn^ entered in a tight bid for first place. Though the clues to the puzzle were printed with the four pages of route in­ structions, the answers could only be found on various buildings and road signs along the route. The success of each team depended on their ability to remain on course and on time with both the driver and navigator keeping an eye out for the needed signs. At one minute intervals, each team departed from the starting point at the Cary Park district for the journey that would coyer 52 miles of back roads and main routes bordering the towns of Cary, Barrington and Algonquin. During the event, the navigators, had to fill in the puzzle aside from shouting route instructions to the drivers. It was an event that found an equal amount of guest teams entered. With his Triumph Spitfire not ready for action, guest Craig Toussaint of McHenry en­ tered his Olds Cutlass and his brother Doug, of John- sburg, navigated them to a third place finish. Another guest team of Bob Muenster and Chet Salzman drove a BMW to a fourth place finish to capture the club's "Rookie Award". Other finishers were Sharon and Lew Caliento in a Volvo, Ralph and Jean Grover in a Mustang, Deanna Bloom- field and Rudy Morales in an Opel, Jim and Dorothy Becker in a Volvo, Jim Evans and Trinita Carroll in P.Y.C.
