By special arrangement those rugged individuals. Bob Blake, Ray Smith, Larry Nimsgern, George Rodenkirch and Tommy Sutton caught the fish, cleaned them and turned the cooking over to Fox Hole "Red". Now, this master chef has a special formula for frying fish that brings out a taste that is really finger-lickin'. Don't ask for the recipe. Patent is pending. This group, with their better halves, and a few others (including the Walshes) feasted to their hearts content last Tuesday night. With the proper liquid to wash em down, not a single bone was caught in a throat. Mel Krueger celebrated his birthday (his 29th all over again) at the feast. Gene Nett and his wife, a friendly couple, added to the sociability. The same for the Don Smiths. We had one heckuva good time so I told the boys -- IF you have another and IF you decide to ask us to come again-- There will be no IFS ands or buts about it. We will be there. Larry Nimsgren wanted to know if we would expect a written invitation. r) Told him just the slightest little hint would fetch us. To clear up questions on UNTBMSEfflKC the professional do-it-yourself carpet cleaning system First Hour of Rental old time pictures of McHenry way back when, I called on Leo Heimer. Time was too short, but we have a return engagement planned to look over a wealth of pictures Leo is four years older than I am so he refers to me as "just a kid". As I was going down the steps, he called, "Whoops -- wait a minute", then handed me the following: Getting along in years; when you know all the an­ swers, but nobody asks you the questions. In reading Dick Rabbitt's column, it was a treat to know that somebody agrees with me about the 5 - fouls • and - out - you - go rule in basketball This column has been hammering at that ridiculous rule for several years Up to now, I didn't know anybody agreed with me. Fred Bienapfl read my ramblings about Mchenry in early days. The part about the two Post Offices prompted him to remind me that this was the only city in the United States with two Big cities had sub-stations, but only one Post Office. Frank Rourke was reading a paper which advertised coffee at 15 cents a pound. milk at 7 cents a quart, and other fancy prices. He was all set to take a trip to New York for $34.90. Then he came out of his dream and discovered the newspaper was one his wife had used to pack some items way back when It isn't necessary to read so much when readers clip out important items and give them to you. Only through the thoughtfulness of "Scotty" Thomas did I learn things from a story headed "Love- making can RELIEVE ARTHRITIS". Cousin Jim Walsh phoned from the County Seat after reading Art Boger's story about Countryman and Cox of Volo. Jim says his father traded a collie dog for two of those famous rabbits. It was no time before his father had to build more rabbit hutches. We have had a squirrel at our feeder all winter Lately he has been bringing a little playmate with him. Now. isn't that nice. George Larkin phoned to get some history on his former home on Irish Prairie It was the John Gibbs home when I was in my tender years. George was reviewing all the names of former farmers on the Prairie They are long gone. Now comes a proposal for a 30-hour work week with 40 - hour pay. Sounds good As the saying goes -- Nice work if you can get it. It makes me sick to read about a threatened baseball strike The day will come when the fans will have to organize and pull a strike of their own. C.O.F.

Dschida Leads Skyhawks The Johnsburg girl cagers of Dan Stanowski put their conference mark at 2-7 and overall mark at 6-10 with two conference splits last week Traveling to South Beloit Tuesday, Johnsburg took a 78-62 pasting, but they rebounded Thursday to beat the Indians of Hononegah, 59-52 A g a i n s t S o u t h B e l o i t . .... UUII I IOUUI 5 GUI a M pvuii performance out of Sue Dehn, but it was over­ shadowed by the 28 point surge by the Sobos' Stacy Neal, and 24 points by her sidekick, Lynnette Range. Johnsburg was in­ timidated by South Beloit from the start. They managed only 4 points in the first quarter while the Sobos tallied 25. "To say that we played poorly in the first quarter would be an un­ derstatement," Stanowski offered "Their fast break hurt us badly." Johnsburg picked up the tempo from there and fought back to within four points near the end of the third period Stanowski defended his players, saying that his cagers played South Beloit even or better most of the way. He also rekindled a fire which has been reoccuring from the mouth of most local coaches this year "I don't want to take anything away from Stacy Neal, however. I've got to say I've never seen a player who is protected more by the officials," Stanowski said. He said that the officials agree that Neal does reach in quite a bit, but that rarely does she touch the John­ sburg players, thus no fouls are called. "Mv point guard has scratches and bruises on her arms and legs," Stanowski said "That really makes it hard to run an offense " J o h n s b u r g w a s outrebounded in the loss. 48- 32 Other scorers for the locals included Inge Dschida. 13, Theresa Hauck, 10. Kim Grenman, 6, Cheri Kofler and Joan Pierce 4, while Jane Pecucci added two On Thursday at home, the Skyhawks were paced by Inge Dschida with 18 points in beating the Rockton rivals, 59-52. Dschida started the scoring for Johnsburg in the early going, but Johnsburg fell behind. 11-7 with 2 minutes in the period. Dschida was fouled on a shot, however and connected on two charity shots to put the Skyhawks within two. She then tied the score at 11 with her patended corner set shot the next time down the floor. With two quick baskets by Hononegah, the Indians held a 15-11 first period lead. Johnsburg fell by as many as 7 points during the second eight minutes, but Sue Dehn hit a breakaway layup in the late minutes of the half to put them within three at 23-20. After Cheri Kofler hit a short five-footer, Johnsburg went on to miss four shots in a row to end the half behind by three, 25-22. Theresa Hauck came out in the second half with two quick buckets to give Johnsburg a 26-25 lead. Cheri Kofler hit a 10-footer after a u^nnnooah turnover, and LiSCuiua tuuiHEivu With u 22 footer after an Indian bucket to keep Johnsburg out in front, 30-27.
