FOOD --~' : i ""•" ' DOLLAR Model EEV163G EARL WALSH' So I Hear Met the Ray Blades and Alvin Phannenstils and moved into a discussion of that Maple syrup sent to us by Don Hones. They are friends who venture way up yonder in Michigan to visit the Hones ranch. Unless I'm the sap for believing them, it takes 40 gallons of sap from the tree to boil down into one quart of syrup. I'll have to ask Don about that. (Not that anyone could doubt such honest faces as "Phaimy" and Ray). Have a date to visit Comiskey Park this week to see the White Sox do battle with Billy Martin and his surprising Oakland team. Heard Martin say he wouldn't be surprised to see his team win three straight from the Sox. Big talk! I'm fed up to here with Billy Martin. Putting fire into the game is good. Going too far is bad. When a person is in trouble all the time, it makes you wonder. Reminds me of the World War One song, "They were all out of step but Jim". I'd rather have a sand­ wich, fish fry or whatever in one of our favorite haunts than a 7-course meal in a place where I don't know anybody. The grapevine tells me that while everybody was counting the days to the end of the school term, El Partenheimer came through with the classic remark, "Only 96 days until school opens in September". P r e s i d e n t R o n a l d Reagan's plans to restore the economy of this country seems to be rolling along over some bumpy roads. Nobody kicks about cut­ ting taxes. But, there are plenty of squawks about cutting services. In other words, cut the other guy's benefits, but don't touch mine. One thing seems certain. The hey-day of subsidies is over. Roger Collins, a baseball player of a few years back, went to see the Cubs play ball and came home disillusioned. Roger was taught when at bat and had a 2-0 count to be ready for a fat pitch. He saw Cub hitters take that pitch, then swing at bad ones. Another Roger, Hornsby by name, used to contend that if the ball was over the plate, whether thrown by a right handei or southpaw, it was good enough to hit. -- And he was one of jthe few .400 hitters.^ . V If you have deep pockfts, you are wearing an old Ait. I have a sweater with no pockets. What kind of monkey business is that? jF»ublic transportation is in one helluva mess. It seems the legislators created a pet that grew into a monster. For years we hung out those common ordinary store-bought bird houses, but couldn't attract the little wrens until Coach Stringer sent us a hand made little beatyty from Florida. All went well until this year as we watched for the little wrens to arrive. Eureka! Alvina called, "Come quick!" Sure enough the "Stringer House" will be occupied. PAGE 7 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY. JUNE 5, IW1 Astros And Sox Still Lead The Mini division of the McHenry Youth league had a very busy schedule this past week, with the Astros still on top of the National league. The Astros won their fourth game against no losses by beating the, Dodgers, 1-0. There was superb pitching on both sides. The Astros' Brian Condon allowed 1 hit while striking out 13 and the Dodgers' Dan Sweetwood Divot Dolls At MCC The postponed annual Flag Day tournament issued in the month of June Tuesday for the women of McHenry Country club. A number of the gals played well below their handicaps, causing them to go extra holes before planting their flags. In Class A Espar Oja emerged the winner, grossing 95 for a net of 68 and giving her nine strokes to go after 18 holes. In Gass B it was Dee Overton with 91 gross for a net 62 who was the winner in that class. Class C's winner was Pat MacDonald with a 109 for a net 68. And in Class D the winner was Alta Gierke who grossed *31 for ,'f pet 67,. t Low Grose over the enure field was an 85 shot by our Blond Bomber Carol Cooney. However, with a handicap of 14 it netted her only a 71. Carol did capture low putts of 26 in Gass A, though. 28 ea in Gass B by Dee idys that ac- C while a tie :h in Gass D by Marcy and Betty Low putts were rolled Overton. 26 Marfield gavl colade in G of 32 putts, was shared Wakitsch Wayman. The happy shots of chip-ins were executed by Gladvs Warfield on No. 2, Mickl Be­ cker on No. 13 and Carolyn Harger on No. 4. Micki's chip gave her a birdie on that hole. Other birdies were by Alvina Yopp on No. 14 and 18, Sue Martin on No. 4, Virginia Turner No. 18, Espar Oja No. 11, Gloria Otth No. 14, Marlene Smith No. 18 and Carol Cooney on Nos. 1,15 and 16. A few gals who missed the birdie on 18 with cup-ringers were Dot Shadel, Marcy Wakitsch and Betty Rode. A number of gals claimed to earn the title of Sandy but after listening to their tales of woe it appears that the appellation goes to Eunice Hatch this week. And the Poplar Leaf Cluster is awarded to Lynn Schmidt (undisputedly!) A new award, classified as Wraparound, is bestowed upon Gloria Otth who was seen playing with a bent 4- wood from the 13th tee on. It seems she connected with a tree on the 12th. Well, there goes the matched set. In recent weeks the Traveling team got off to less than a spectacular start by garnering only 2Vi points out of 9 at Village Links. Making a better showing in their match against Pine Crest they took 5 of the 9. They are now on their way and, under the guidance of Nell Fidler, they are bound to make a good showing for the season. Happy Golfing! Liz gave up one hit and struck out 12. Danny Mazurek provided the difference on a a two-base hit and some good base running, allowing him to score for the game's only run. A game-saving play was made when shortstop Mike Haffner threw to catcher Tom Brefeld for a putout at the plate. In the American league, the Sox remained un­ defeated by winning twice. They beat the Tigers in a close game, 3-2. Matt Hopp pitched a great game t with the hitting power supplied by Chris Ziebel with a home run. Kevin Mullen also pitched a super game for the Tigers. The other Sox win was at the expense of the Pirates, 12-1. Matt Carson pitched a good game that saw three home runs - two by Matt Hopp and one by Chris Ziebel. The final two outs of the game occurred on a double play that went from Hopp to Ziebel and back to Hopp. In other games the Brewers got into the win column by winning twice this week, their first win coming over the Giants 17-7. Mark Sonnichsen pitched well in relief and Jeff Carl added the punch with three extra base hits. In the Brewer's second win of the week they beat the Braves in a close one, 6-5, with Ryan Penoyer pitching a fine game and adding to the hitting with a home run. Also hitting for extra bases was Jeff Carl with a double and Ryan Olszewski a triple. The Cubs dropped from the unbeaten ranks at the hands of the Tigers, losing 9- 1. Tiger pitcher Steve Aleckson pitched a super game, allowing a mere four hits and striking out 11 while Live Altm? Call For Help Instantly 24 Hrs A DAY!
