Rhubarb Heard at
Clearwater Victory
CLEARWATER — St. Mary’s
academy Cardinals, of O'Neill,
dropped a 41-48 decision to the
favored Clearw ater Cardinals Fri
day night on the tiny Clearwater
rink. But feeling was running
high among SMA partisans who
witnessed 36 fouls assessed
against the parochial team.
One of the officials was Richie
Ashbum, the Philadelphia Phils'
baseball star, and it was the
concensus of O'Neillites that the
refs were whistle-happy, iwen
ty-eight personals were called
on Clearwater.
Clearwater Forward Barrett,
who breezed along at a 20-points
per-game clip last season, was
limited to 2 fielders by Big Ber
nie Mohr, SMA center.
Mohr proved to be the out
standing performer of the eve
ning. Besides hawking the great
Barrett, he established a modern
individual scoring record for SMA
players. His evening’s total: 29.
The game sorely strained rela
tions between Ref Ashbum and
Big Bemie, who have been life
time friends. Mohr moved to
O’Neill from Tilden, Richie’s
hometown, not many months ago.
Coach Duke Kersenbrock’s par
ochial kids led 23-23 at intermis
sion.
Subzero temperatures chilled
the SMA partisans no more than
the officiating.
