Eagles and Cardinals Triumph in Season's Final Rounds

O’Neill Powerhouse Sinks
Atkinson 20-0 on a
Heavy Field
END SCORES TWICE
ATKINSON — A heavy field
which had been buried all week
under a blanket of snow, served
only to slow-down the high-rid
ing O’Neill Eagles here Friday
night as they outplayed, outyard
ed, and outsmarted Atkinson
20-0.
Both clubs were obliged to re
sort to straight football, but O’
Neill’s version of straight foot
ball included a well-oiled “T”
~ formation, a deathly end-around
^ifiat twice produced touchdowns,
and the elusive Dick Tibbetts,
whose brokenfield running was
impeded (but not stymied) by the
soggy footing.
In the first quarter, Big Bob
Matthews on an end-around went
35 yards to score. Not a single
hand was laid on him.
Halfback Tibbetts setup the
second counter when he intercep
NAME COCAPTAINS
The O’Neill Eagles elected
Halfback Dick Tibbetts and
Guard Bill Hartman, both sen
iors, as honorary cocaptains on
the eve of the Atkinson game.
Tibbetts has been the team’s
leading ground - gainer and
sparkplug, and Hartman has
been a hardworking, consistent
lineman.
ted an Atkinson flip on his own
2, and advanced the ball 55-yads
in his usual circuitous way, in
cluding two reversals of his field.
The path was clear when he
bumped into one of his own and
he was brought down.
Big Bob Matthews then came
%tj#ough with a duplication of his
ipst-quarter demonstration, and
put O’Neill comfortably ahead
with two touchdowns.
The Eagles’ third marker came
in the fourth period following a
65-yard drive in which the *T”
produced three- and four-yard
gains in almost every try. Tib
betts went off-tackle from the 2
to score.
It was the final game of the
season for both aggregations. A
raw wind and below-freezing
temperatures made the evening
uncomfortable for players and
spectators alike.

Coach F. E. (“Kelly”) Saindon
and his O'Neill Eagles turned
their backs to the plow this week.
Orly one reversal marred an oth
erwise perfect season.
> They offer no alibis for the
0*13 loss to Ainsworth, yet they'd
!IM to have another go at the
W. .tenters.
|Dh a comparative average bas
is; tie Eagles rank high in state
gridiron circles. The statisticians
had the O'Neill club a notch be
low Lincoln Central last week.
Central was knocked-off, and the
Eagles outdid their opponents —
Atkinson—20-0.
The earlier Ainsworth setback
possibly denied the Eagles a place
in Nebraska’s big three.
Coich Saindon looks upon the
just-ended season as his best in
six yea s of coaching.
The season was formally clos
ed Monday night when the ath
letic dejartment sponsored a din

The 1946 gridiron chores are
over for the St. Mary's academy
footballers.
But they are still talking about
the startling 26-25 victory over
St. Patrick’s of North Platte here
an the afternoon of October 27.
So outstanding was the lowly ■
Cards’ rise to new heights that an
otherwise mediocre season was
transformed in one afternoon in
to a big success.
The St. Patrick’s team ranked
third in state six-man grid cir
cles prior to the reversal here and
appeared to be on the way to the
state championship.
The Cards opened the season
with a decisive 43-6 win from
Lynch, and then went down 12
33 at the hands of the Chambers
Coyotes. Sacred Heart of Nor
folk, playing its first season of
football, swept through the Cards
48-0 and finished the season near
the top of the heap in Nebraska.
St. Mary’s of Grand Island
dampened the Cards’ homecom
ing, -27-13, but the Cardinals
bounced bafck the following week
with a 12-6 decision over Butte.
The still-talked-about win from
St. Patrick’s came next and the
Cardinals climaxed the season in
a fitting manner by squelching
Chambers 12-6, avenging the ear
lier loss.
The Cardinals were outscored
118 to 151 in winning four and
losing three.
ATKINSON, EWING
SLOG TO 6-6 TIE
Both Touchdowns Scored
During 2 Minutes in
Second Period
ATKINSON—A convenient tit
for-tat scoring arrangement in
the second period relieved the
monotony of an otherwise dull
ball game here Armistice
day as Ewing and Atkinson
sloshed around a snow-covered
gridiron and called it quits at 6
all. The tilt was witnessed by a
sizeable holiday crowd.
Atkinson blocked a Ewing kick
inside the Ewing 10 during the
second stanza, and then pushed
the pigskin over for the first
counter of the game. Not to be
outdone, the Tigers elected Back
Bob Dunaway to take the next
kickoff and he ran it back 75
yards to tie up the ball game. The
decisive try for point failed and
.the afternoon’s scoring was
wrapped up in two extraordinary
minutes.

St. Mary’s Avenges Early
Loss to Chambers,
Winning 12-6
TOMJACK GOES 70
CHAMBERS — The up-and
down St. Mary’s Cardinals found
sweet revenge here Friday.
Having been humiliated by the
Chambers Coyotes 12-33 in a late
September affair at O'Neill,
they were out for blood. By in
termission the Cards had fash
ioned a 12-6 lead, and that's also
how the game ended.
In the first quarter, Chambers
connected on two long passes and
grabbed a 6-0 lead.
St. Mary’s, after a slow start,
moved into high gear when Half
back Jerry Tomjack caught a pass
and reached the Chambers one
yard-line before he was downed.
The Coyotes repelled the threat,
however, and kicked out of dan
ger.
Blocking Perfect
St. Mary’s bounced back with
Dick McNichols and Shorty Miles
reeling off long runs and Tomjack
pushing it over to knot the score.
Chambers later drove to the
Cards’ 10, but their machine
stalled.
In the second stanza, Tomjack
lined up behind perfect blocking
and went 70 yards to score the
winning touchdown.
The second half was a see-saw
affair with both sides threatening
to score but unable to do so,
partially because the offensives
were slowed by a wet field.
On the last play of the game— i
and, incidentally, the season —
McNichols lost a front tooth.
Rev. R. J. Lisco’s backfield
stood out on defense.
It was curtains for the St.
Mary’s seniors, headed by cocap
tains Tomjack and Ed Hynes.

Beckwith.
