Still the competitive spirit was well demonstrated at Pistakee, as Edith Nimsgren birdied No. 7. Blindly she chips unto the green from the valley and her ball runs smoothly into the cup. Watching it happen is one thing but the surprise of happenings are few between golfers. She splits the fairways with her "Taylor-made" woods as Libby Jehnson drives over the elevated green, past the road, and skillfully chips on for a par on No. 9. Her caddy also thought she did pretty well at the McHenry Women's Invitational. Edna Mueller a 2nd year golfer uses a 3 iron for a 150 yd. drive to the green. She has shown some fantastic drives, but she says her putting is questionable. Not so for Dorie Tonyan, with a 20 foot putt on No. 9. Streak putting! Rose Santi is out of the slump and has been doing some spectacular golfing Paring 2 holes and stroking in l5 and 20 foot putts. Twice tapped in l putts. "Pulling is all right when you pull a cart, but let it happen otherwise, is a No- No, especially on the green." Must be shy we miss so many important last minute shots! There is no error in judgement for Ellen Leonard as she chips in on No. 3 with a graceful No putt. Ending that day with 14 putts! All sorts of thoughts go through your mind as she chips in for a no-putt on No. 1 for Jo Rutz. I hear Ethel Hartman has been splitting the fairways with her drives With smooth well- balanced drives, Maggie Molidor makes some sure­ fire drives to the green. She birdied 2 holes today; one on No. 4 and No. 6. Heaven can stand still to behold a group of dramatic golfers. Eight golfers standing in line (birds of the same feather) all shooting at once! Unbelievable Maggie Moidor, Roye Roadman, Yvonne Matt, Bernice Dolce, Cammie Hunt, Ad Zieger, Lori Huml, and Dawn Schnulle. Top golfers, wearing Birdie pins and all made spectacular un­ disciplined golfing today. Today was "Fund Day". "The season went so fast, where did it go?" It yvas eventful for Benice Dolce as she skillfully putts in from the fringe at 45 feet from the hole to make her par on No. 5. She broke her 4 iron, but gained a favorable handicap to put her in the Women's Invitational. A passive morning breeze with the overnight rains softened the greens. With a "hammer" for a putter, Corinne Boyer eased that ball inf or a 1 putt on No. 2. Not so for all, but we were all willing to try. Bobbie Burr will clip along from one flight to another as she displays marvelous golfing. Exciting is the game when Bobbie birdies No. 5. Our Birdie Tree is bending with birdies: Maggie Molidor's "twinkling"3's; Libby Johnson's spectacular 3's; Dawn Schnulles and Dorothy Uy ttebroeck's competitive No. 3 birds; Corinne Boyer's clear-eyed bird; Marilyn Ehlen's "Miracle whoops" bird; Corinne Boyer's 1 sty; Georgette Lewis and Maryrita Stilling's birds. Then around the tree are all the happy golfers at Pistakee Country club. After a delicious lunch the new officers for the coming year were installed: Pres.: Linda Myers. Vice-Pres.: Joan Teich- miller. Secretary: Dorie Tonyan. T r e a s u r e r : G e a n i e Oulehla. Trophies went to: A Class, Marilyn Ehlen. B Class, Shirley Mon- talbano. C Class, Cecily Ryan.

Chairman Lori Huml, and the 1981 officers who gave so much of their time to make this a happy dseason of golfing at Pistakee. See you next Spring.

Friday for reser­ vations. Ted Spengel an­ swered and told me the dining room would be full, but they could put us in the President's Room. That's a fancy name for the overflow crowd. Holy mackeral! When we hit John Street, cars were lined up like a replay of Republican Day. Through the manager's concern and VIP treatment by our waitress, Veronica, we had an enjoyable time. It was the day for the Lake and McHenry County Plumbing Heating Contract0fymrg&ni2*ation to have a good time. We rtuit plumbers like Congressman McClory, Senator Jack Schaefer and State Representative Dick Klemm. Other plumbers without their wrenches were Herb Reihansperger, Tom Rslger and Jerry Wakitech. Some days you can't win. I left Larry Nimsgern's barber shop and walked south on Riverside Drive. Suddenly waking up to the fact that my car was parked to the north, I wheeled around and headed in that direction. Of course, Larry had to see my mistake and stuck his head out the door to deliver a smart remark. The same day I donned an apron to keep my clothes clean, holding the ladder and a pail while Alvina climbed up to clear the eave trough. What an inopportune time for Arnold Rauen to drive past. Without success, I tried to explain that when a wife gets up in the air, a husband has to keep his feet on the ground. Mention of Arnold brings me up to another story. He and Leona (don't put my name in the paper) celebrated their 50th wed­ ding anniversary Saturday. They were married in St. John's Church in Johnsburg on the same day of the month and same day of the week. Not a huge crowd, but friends from several states came to help celebrate the great day. Strangers got together and proved to be good mixers. Arnold had given his secretary (Pat) orders not to talk to me, but we managed. He also ordered the ipusicans not to play or sing any Irish songs. We swamped him on that one. 'Twas all in fun and fun it was. Espar Oja came to our cart, with Barb Weber at the controls as usual each year, and let us know she enjoyed my comment that come hell or high water I would attend the Club Championship on Sunday. One reason Espar was a m u s e d w a s t h e f a c t McHenry Country Club was well soaked after a week of rain. The high water part was real. Going into the final round, Art Jackson was 10-up on Bob Svec, while Tim Martin, Ed Buss and Dan Gallagher were tied for third place only one stroke behind Svec. When the day was over, Art Jackson was still the champ and a popular champ. As it happened last year, Tim flashed some fine golf on the last nine. And that little fellow Bob Svec is a threat to the champion. As Bill Bolger summed it up, they are all good golfers, but Art is better. Except for the first place lead, five golfers were id a real close finish: Martin, 299; Svec, 300; Buss, 303; Gary Adams. 305; Art's sisters, Connie and Kate, were there to offer encouragement. So was his brother Jimmy. As so often happens, my thoughts were of their late mother, a great lady if ever there was one. It is always a friendly crowd that follows par­ ticipants in a championship match. Talked to many of them, too many to mention. Hospitality of Vale and Marge Adams, Harold and Lil Michaels and all con­ cerned, was up to their usual mp ira. high sttrnda: So, it goes into the records that the ever-popular Art Jackson is still the Champ. He wears the Crown with dignity and modesty. Barb and I will be back next year. Men's 12" Softball Because of the inclement weather last Wednesday, the conclusion of the regular season for the Western Division of men's 12-inch Softball had not yet been completed.

DRIVING • Tim Martin hit some long shots as he carded a 72 in the final round to give him a 72 hole total of 299 and a second place finish in the month long McHenry Country Club tournament. STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD So I Hear With Buss in the group, there was action aplenty. He never fails to congratulate another golfer on a good shot and encourage others when they goof up on a shot.
