By Pete Fritchie WASHINGTON, D. C. -- Sports fans appreciate, gen­ erally speaking, the fact that American athletes have been training hard, for years, to compete in the 1980: Olym­ pics. That's why an alternate international games is a must', and should already be in the planning stage. American and other athletes should not feei badly about competing in an inter­ national games somewhere other than in Moscow. In fact, if about fifty or sixty nations attend this meet- which seems likely--free world athletes will win more medals.And medals com­ parable to traditional Olym­ pic medals should be awarded. Communist countries run their sports program almost as a state enterprise anyhow and, in some ways, free world countries are handi­ capped as a result, with their amateurs. It was almost a foregone conclusion that Russia would have rather easily won the greatest number of medals and points in Moscow this summer. They have, even outside their own country, in recent Olympics. President Carter is right when he says military ag­ gression against another free country is not merely a mat­ ter of politics, to be kept separate from sports. It's a far more serious question. If the free world boycotts the Moscow Olympics, that re­ buff would probably impact on Soviet public opinion more than any other single non-violent protest Washing­ ton can make. In one year, hens in Ameri­ ca lay enough eggs to en­ circle the globe 100 times.

EARL WALSH" So I Hear PORTS EDITOR. Forester Championship Title Games Next Sunday POST ST. PATRICK'S DAY THOUGHTS: The cards were beautiful.- Some real humorous. Girls in the Plaindelaer news room were bedecked in green. Bossman Larry Lund wore a complete green ensemble- - even green socks. Tom Murphy wasn't to be outdone by anybody. He wore green underwear. 'Twas heart warming to have the Blaneys come to our door, bringing not only glad tidings, but some beautiful green. Petie Schaefer phoned to report seeing an Irish robin - - green eyes. Told him to look closely the morning after to see if the eyes were red. Friends like Larry Huck are the kind we would like to have come a-knockin' at our door more often. All day I kept thinking of the late and great friend "Red" Winkel who used to bring the green brew. Our phone was busy most of the day -- and I loved every ring. Tradition guided us down to O'Bimbo's at night where everybody was a friend to all. All Irish songs on the juke box. A high spot of the evening was meeting the John Coughlins and Grandma Lucille Geraty. We speak the same language. 'Twas good to see Dick Hester and family. Dick had a recent stay in the hospital, but didn't lose his winning smile. John Rogers had left, but didn't forget to leave a green hat and fancy green garters for me. My legs aren't attractive so will use the garters for sleeve bands. Haven't had any since Grandma Nettie Weber gave me a pair. Twas a great day for the Irish and those who wanted to be. T h i s p e r i o d o f M a r c h Madness has basketball coming out of our ears. Seems there were never so many good teams in college and high school. ,•* Radar shooting is the rule rather than "the exception. Swish! The ally-oop pass gives me a thrill. Dunking seems to take the fancy of the crowds. Not me. It is like shooting fish in a barrel. No definite news on the threatened baseball strike. Hate to think they can't settle the issues. Fairness on both sides would be the answer. As much as I look forward to opening of the baseball season, it isn't a matter of life and death like a walk-out by firemen or policemen. It is now past midnight as I hung in there to hear all the election results. The big interest in Chicago was the race for States Attorney. Mayor Byrne, backing Alderman Burke, should have known better than to take on the Daleys. Now comes a commercial break. One young mother is telling another young mother that she is using the wrong diapers on her baby. That's enough. I'm going to bed. Not Bad It wouldn't be a bad idea at that to put the designers of the bathing suits in charge of cutting governmental budgets. -Herald, Miami. Financial Note Have you noticed how much easier it is now to get change for a S10 bill? If there is any change. -Christian Sci. Monitor. The Johnsburg Junior high eighth grade girls' basketball team recently completed their season with a record of 13 wins and 2 losses. The girls won the Fox Valley Ten Conference while compiling a 7-2 record. They also captured the conference's post season tournament, defeating North of Crystl Lake, Olsen of Woodstock, and Parkland of McHenry. To complete a most successful year, the team then swept through the Gavin Invitational Tournament with victories over Highland of Libertyville, Lake Zurich and Gavin. At their awards banquet the team voted Janette Ready, Most Improved player; Kim Pieper, Honorary Captain; and Theresa Hauck, Most Valuable player.
