MUSICAL ABILITY — The Rhythm Boys of Kane county cut loose on the Friday evening program and the crowd asked for more. The Knudtson 

 Family sang and brother Roy did a vocal specialty. LaSalle county's Ramblers rambled through a square dance or two and rated blue ribbons. 



SKILL — Trousers replaced skirts and the women riile shooters shot it out in the Armory. Carol Sears scored 182 to win a first for DeEcdb 

 county. The Whittler boys of Macoupin county whittled themselves a horseshoes doubles championship. Shuffleboardists — a lot of fun. 

 AND AGILITY — Softball-ers registered early Friday and started the first of 116 games. The girls Softball tournament ended in a tense play with 

 DeKalb just winning. And through it all checker players matched wits. Frank Gallaway, DeWitt county was crowned champ and Lee Dikeman, 

 Peoria, last year's winner was runner-up.
