of Kickoff
Coach A1 Sipes’ St. Mary’s
Cardinals administered a humil
iating defeat on a visiting Butte
aggregation here Friday night,
410.
The Scarlet from the north
coantry were stunned by a ri
ck as three - minute opening
that netted St. Mary's a 10
point trad, The deflated Buite
jr.cr were unsuccessful in
patch ag things and getting
back into the ball game.
In hree plays the Cards had
six tints. A placekick added
two more, and a touchback
boosted the count to 10 before
the watch reached the three
minute mark.
Butte’s fate was sealed a few'
minutes later W'hen Halfback
Shorty Miles, the academy’s
steamroller, gathered up the ball
in his own endzone and raced
the length of the field to score.
He sped to one sideline, ran
most of the defenders out-of
bounds, and cut-back behind
good interference into the open
spaces.
Brg Tom Hurty, heretofore a
lineman, turned in a good job
in the Cardinal baekfield. He
pitched a high pass to End Jim
Donohoe, the play netting 35
yards and six points.
Sipes introduced a diminu
tive froth, named Gerry
Wells, who scampered 40
yards for one touchdown.
Wells hails from Emmet.

The Irish of Notre Dame
crushed an outclassed but not
humiliated Nebraska football
team at South Bend , Jnd., Sat
urday, score 31-0.
Some pregame predictions
conceded Notre Dame more
touchdowns than the less-than
medioe.e Nebraska team could
collect in first downs. The
Buskers. however, embarrassed
these extremists by rolling up
nine first downs as compared
to Notre Dame’s 14. Nebras
ka’s aerial attack was boltled
up completely, but its backs
weren’t The Irish were equal
ly effective in both depart
ments.

ACTION; WIN 33-7
Prof. Kelly Saindon paraded
32 O’Neill Eagles before the
eyes of a light, inexperienced
Spencer high grid team here on
Wednesday afternoon, but even
with the lowliest reserves in the
fray the visitors couldn’t put up I
a battle. O’Neill won. 33-7.
This week’s game was played
two days early because of the
statewide teachers’ conventions
this weekend.
The Spencer teem, scoreless
so far this season, managed a
touchdown and an extra point
in the fourth stansa against
O'Neill's third team.
The visitors were liberally
supplied with freshmen and
sophomores who may produce
some real opposition come the
next two or three autumns.
I End Dean Van Every scored
four touchdowns for the Blue*,
two via the airways and two on
end-arounds. Halfback Wally
Shelhamer counted one touch
down.
j- The turnout was small for the
afternoon game—the only home
daylight performance this year
I for the Eagles.

SPECIAL TO THE PROMT ILE
AINSWORTH — The Ains
worth Arrows, beaten this sea
son only by the Curtis Aggies,
downed the O’Neill Eagles, 25
13, under the lights here Fri
day night in what the Arrows’
coach, Joe Greeno, has describ
ed as "easily the best game of
the season.”
From the beaten Eagles there j
came no apologies. TTiey admit
they were licked by a harder
charging, better maneuvering
outfit that is literally writing its
own ticket this season on the
no'th-central Nebraska grids.
O'Neill received he kick-off,
was held for downs, and was
forced to kick. The Arrows
launched a march that went
for 70 yards and a touchdown.
Not to be outdone, lhe Blues
received lhe next kick and
hammered out 81 yards and
six points with Fullback Bob
Matthews plunging for the
counter from the 2.
In the last hal’-minute of the
first-half, the Arrows dug up
an end-around ditty that went
for pay-dirt from the midfield
stripe and the scoreboard read
32-6 at intermission.
As the third period got un
derway, O’Neill kicked to Ains
worth. A Maroon fumble, re
covered by Guard Duane Miller,
gave O’Neill possession in mid
field, and O’Neill’s second
touchdown march was on. A
forward-lateral—from Matthews
to End Dean VanEvery to Quar
terback Gordon Elkins — pro
duced the six points, and a pass
—Matthews to VanEvery—pro
duced the point that gave O’
Neill a shortlived 13-12 lead.
In the fourth the Arrows
launched two powerful drives
that the Blues couldn't stop.
As the game ended O'Neill
was inside the Maroon 20
yard-stripe but the gun check
ed the push.
O’Noill’s blocking and tack-.
ling was in sharp contrast with
the listless, dull performances
the previous Jtiday at Creigh
ton in- which the Blues were
setdown, 6-0. But Ainsworth’s
blocking and tackling was just
as effective, and coupled with a j
clever and strong offensive this
spelled the difference between
the two clubs. s
Mrs. Viola Morgan and son,
Francis, spent tht weekend in
North Loup at the home of her
son. Oliver, and family. Clayton
and Eletareea Mesner were in
charge of the Morgan home.

CHAMBERS—A fourth C4uar
ter interception of a Chambers
pass enabled End Larry Pribil
to race 40 yards and score the
tying point m the 8-8 Cham
bers-St. Mary’s game here on
Wednesday afternoon.
The Coyotes had captured
an early eight-point lead with
a first-quarter touchdown and
droplock. Pribil's interception
prevented disaster for the
Cardinals.
Halfback Shorty Miles, injur
ed in the opening minute of the
game, returned to St. Mary’s
line-up long enough to boot the
drop-kick try for extra points
that tied-up the score.
Miles saw little action be
cause of a recurring knee in
jury.
The clubs were evenly match
ed and the yardage from rush
ing slightly favored the Coyotes.
The Cards made a gallant stand
on their one-foot line when
Chambers had a first-down and
goal to go. When St. Mary’s
held for downs and took over,
the oval was back on the 15.
End Jim Donohoe sparkled for
St. Mary’p. while Halfback Cav
anaugh shone for Chambers.
Cavanaugh scored the Chambers
touchdown by taking a pass and
stepping across. The play was
<rood for 25 yards. Halfback
PatHickey had his fingers on
the ball, but failed to intercept.
