AINSWORTH WINS |
OVER O’NEILL, 39-6
Richardson and Leonard
and Seasoned Mates
Wreck Eagles
Don Richardson, Ben Leon
ard & Co. buried the O’Neill
Eagles Friday night in Carney
park under an avalanche of
end sweeps. At the conclusion
of the evening, the visitors —
Ainsworth—had paraded to a
39-6 victory.
Ainsworth simply had too
much class, weight, speed and
experience for the helpless
Eagles, who seldom have been
so completely outclassed.
Ainsworth's veteran team,
studded with seniors who
have been playing together
for several years, scored
twice in the first period, and
the handwriting on the wall
was seen early by Coach
Marv Miller's youngsters.
Leonard scored twice for
Ainsworth on end- around
plays, going 58 and 31 yards.
He caught Richardson’s 45
yard pass for a third tally.
Richardson, Ainsworth full- j
back, rambled 50 yards for ono
touchdown and went 43 yards i
to the live-yard line and then
over for another. Later, he
bucked a yard for his third
touchdown.
The Eagles’ offense was fu- j
tile against the keen visiting
aggregation. # |
O'Neill's Quarterback
Haro’d Elkins sprinted 75
yards on one occasion—only
to be hauled down from be
hind. The O'Neill touchdown
came in the fourth on a pass

to Elkins, who was in the
end zone.
Both clubs used substitutes
liberally. Every member of1

HOMECOMING AT
BUTTE DAMPENED
St. Mary’s Cards Lead
16-0 as Game Is
Conceded
BUTTE — The St. Mary’s
academy Cardinals, of O’Neill,
waited until the third period
here Friday afternoon to ex
plode a jet-propelled attack
against Butte. In that stanza
the Cards rolled up four
touchdowns and the Buttemen
wanted to quit. St. Mary’s
won, 46-0.
The Scarlet started slow,
succeeding in punching
across only one touchdown
in the opening quarter.
Butte, meanwhile. reached
St. Mary’s six-inch line, but
failed to place the pigskin
across in four tries. It was
the only serious threat the
Buttemen made.
The drubbing rather damp
ened homecoming activities at
Butte high, but the program
went on as scheduled.
Shorty Miles, Cardinal back,
accounted for three touch
downs. Don Donohoe, frosh
Cardinal ballcarrier, ran 50
yards in a brilliant run for a
beginner.
The Cards played Chambers

academy.
