Redskins Win In 5th Overtime
The Lions Glaucoma Mobile Unit came to Huntley with fantastic results. We had a total of 53 people tested. There were 2 suspected of glaucoma, 2 of diabetes, 3 of blood pressure and 10 with visual acuity recommended to see their doctor.
The Huntley Lions would like to notify the people of Huntley that they need to see more of you. While this screening was successful, their goal was to test at least 75 people. To be able to Iceep these units coming to Huntley, there must be at least 50 people tested. The cut-off was very close this year.
"Whenever you hear that an
eye-unit or hearing-unit is coming, mark that date down," said the Huntley Lion Glaucoma Screening Chairman, Ed Hartmann. "We would also like to see more of our senior citizens."
Most of the funding for the eye and hearing units comes from Candy Day, which will be Oct. 11-12 this year. Funds also come from the Pancake Breakfast and Steak Fry. Lions Club trys to help those in need with eye glasses it exams.
Now that you know what Lions Club does for Huntley, when the Lions Club holds any function, come on in. All the money raised, benefits this area.

Friday night's football match-up between the Huntley Varsity Redskins and the . Walther Lutheran Broncos had a spectacular finish that all players should be proud of.
Going into the end of the fourth quarter, the score was tied at 6 each. The Redskins had a late fourth quarter possession, but they failed to score. The game went into overtime.
The Redskins had first possession in overtime. The offense received the ball on the ten yard line, with four downs to cross the goal line. The Redskin offense did just that with the help of senior Lane Linnenkohl, who ran three yards for the touchdown. The conversion attempt failed.
The Broncos retaliated with a touchdown by their offense. They, too, failed on their conversion. The score was tied at 12-12.
The second and third overtime produced nothing except excitement for the players and the crowd.
The fourth overtime again brought each team a touchdown. Again, neither team scored extra points. It was 18-18 going into the fifth overtime.
The Redskins took the offense first again. Huntley scored six but once again
failed at the conversion.
In one last attempt, the Broncos attempted to score. By the third down, Walther Lutheran was inside the one yard line. Both the third and fourth downs were futile attempts in scoring. Huntley won with a decisive fifth overtime touchdown: the final score was 24-18.
The five overtimes ties the record for most overtimes in one high school game. Three other games have reached this mark, the last one being in 1985,
Compared to last week's game, the Redskins cleaned up their game greatly. With only four penalties called against them, the Redskins only lost 40 yards. The Broncos were stuck for 80 yards on penalties.
Juniors Chad Jeschke and Nick Hunter were the leading rushers against the Broncos. Hunter ran for 38 yards on ten carries. Jeschke ran for 32 yards on four carries. Jeschke also scored six points for the Redskins.
Junior quarterback Derek Brettman completed four out of seven passes for a total of 68 yards with no interceptions. Junior Ken Bakley had an outstanding 18 tackles ag^nst Walther Lutheran. Juniors Sean
Faworski, Tim Lombard and Robert Selling helped Bakley on defense. Faworski had one sack in his total nine tackles. Selling brought down fourteen players, and Lombard had two solos and eight assists.
Coach Terry Awrey was in awe of his varsity team. He knew the team had a winning spirit; it just took a few games to prove it. It was one of his best games as coach in eleven years.
The junior varsity Redskins football team came up one touchdown and one conversion short in their 20-12 loss earlier Friday evening. The junior varsity teams were tied from half time on, until the final minutes of the game. The Broncos scored the touchdown and completed the two point conversion play to bring the Redskins junior varsity team to a 0-5 record.
Both Redskin teams will play this Saturday, October 5, at North Shore County Day in
Winnetka. Game time is l:00pm.
The freshman squad will also
play at home on Monday, Oct.

demolished except the grass and dirt. Trustee Borowicz questioned the water service which will be taken care of. This does not need to go out for bid. Conunittee of the Whole will be able to select one bid for submittal. Trustee Borowicz questioned bills for Prime Group matters. Attorney Kukla advised these are passed on. He advised Trustee Borowicz that meetings have been had but at the conclusion all will be reported to the Trustees and work sessions will be scheduled including all board members.
Trustee Becker then entered the meeting.
Village Administrator Krauss advised the Hoist matter on the Agenda will not be heard at this meeting.
The Engineer's Report was as follows:
He presented updated utility maps as being completed with
changes as marked by the Public Works Department. President Dhamer questioned if outdated maps were available if required. Public Works Director Nimbar advised that they were in his office.
Mr. Molar reported on the 4th Street sewer improvement and submitted a map. This sewer is now active and in use. Contract is almost complete. Once this is completed per punch list, a monitoring manhole can come on line and Mr. Krauss stated they and Milk Specialties have been given 180 days to have installed. Trustee Hoeft questioned if stubs, and Y's were on subdivision review noting this was a necessity.
The blowers at the Sewer Treatment Plant were brought up by Mr. Molar:
a) He felt the best solution would be to rework some of the existing piping, 6" needed, was
3".
b) Recommended this should be done outside the STP contract. Work is in the $4,000 to $5,000 ballpark.
After discussion. Trustee Hoeft made a motion to authorize Village Administrator Krauss to contact three plumbers for repair of blowers at the plant. Seconded by Trustee Russ, upon roll call, all trustees voted aye and the motion carried. Mr. Molar felt there would be no additional engineering costs. He also advised that the village has received a disinfectant permit for the chlorine. Permit good enough for year round, he stated. Also that the NPDES documents had been misplaced by the authorities and will have to be submitted. Public Comments followed: 1) Terry Fredericks and Renee Behrens asked that Grove Street continued on page 4
