It’ll be Neligh’s home coming and the Warriors, labor ing through a mediocre season, will be supercharged for Coach Marv Miller’s Blues. To the victor of the tradi tional match will go The Fron tier-Neligh News trave.ing tro phy, which has been in the possession of the Blues since (.last season's 21-19 win over the Warriors in Carney park here. This week the Eagles have an •open-date. Next week’s game has been backed up from Friday, October 24, to Wednesday, Octo ber 22, because of the annual 'teachers’ convention. The O’Neill band will not make the trip to Neligh, but the pep club will be on hand. Bulldogs Blanked; Eby Shines— O’Neill’s Dave Eby turned in a whale of a performance—offen sively and defensively — Friday inight in Carney park as the O’ Neill high Eagles kept their per fect record intact and defeated •the fired-up Ainsworth Bulldogs, 13-0k The visitors were rated underdogs but they furnished plenty of anxiety for O’Neill partisans until the fourth quarter TD afforded a comfortable mar gin. Eby sneaked across from the 1 -yard-line for the Blues’ first marker after eight minutes of play, Fullback Duane Booth’s boot try for extra point was wide. Ainsworth outcharged and out played the Blues during a listless second period. But after inter mission Coach Marv Miller’s kids {assumed command of the situa tion by controlling the ball most of the time inside Ainsworth ter ritory. The final score was set up late in the third after an exchange of fumbles and punts and some hard-running by Eby, Georgie Kilcoin, Booth and Bob Carroll, i Immediately after the start of the fourth period, Eby hustled across on a delayed buck through center. Eby added the point on a boot. Ed Davis, Gaylen Hull and Eby were consistently upend ing Ainsworth carriers and Harold Dexter broke through the Bulldog defense for at ’east two important tackles. Half back Cozard was Ainsworth's chief threat. The Eagles outdowned their foes, 11-7. O’Neill now holds wins over Plainview, B a s s et t, Burwell, Creighton and Ainsworth. Shot Glances Off Water, Hits Woman While duck hunting 12 miles south of O’Neill Sunday. Mrs. Gerald Harding, O’Neill house wife, became victim of “shot” as urell as the ill-fated duck. When Mr. and Mrs. Harding arrived at the lake there was only one other hunter present who was in a blind on the lake. As some ducks glided in to set tle on the lake, the hunter in the blind fired and succeeded :n winging one. It landed upon the lake between his blind and Mrs. Harding, who was up on the bank. Mrs. Harding saw he was going to shoot again and turned aside. As he fired the second time he hit the duck but some stray shot glanced off the water and struck Mrs. Harding in the left arm and leg. She was taken im miediately to St. Anthony’s’ hos pital for treatment. She was not seriously injured.

The Frontier Sports So (Editor’s note: About 150 Holt county persons, including all members of the O’Neill Municipal band, were in Memorial sta dium, Lincoln, Saturday and saw Nebraska Halfback Bob Rey nolds play his last game of football in scarlet. Many superlatives have been used by the press and radio in recording Bob Reynolds’ exploits on the gridiron. A fine tribute to one of the greatest half backs of all time was written by Norris Anderson and published Monday in The Lincoln Star. Read the factual paragraphs below and be convinced that the injury hex has banished from the grid one of its truly greatest competitors.) Bobby Reynolds, Saturday’s hero to all Nebraskans and an All American to millions of Americans, passed almost unnoticed from the collegiate football realm Saturday. Only the pressbox occupants knew at halftime of the Kansas | State-Nebraska game that Bobby Reynolds, greatest of all Husker halfbacks, had played his last game. Even the scribes and announcers, battle-hardened to tragedy on the field, seemed to sense the impending doom. You caught the first feeling of anxiety when Reynolds, ganged viciously on the five yard line, came up rubbing his left shoulder and gyrating his left arm. Worried field glasses were trained on Reynolds as he walked off the field. There followed the same breathless scene we saw at Camp Curtis before the 1951 season when Bobby separated his right shoulder. a i_• _ j __ ii • _ . _ #» *■ a _«i j. ! J iU^ A 11 _ n 11U111CU gcunci mg UJ- uuuuib diiu uamciD aiuuuu vi*t **.*■•. American. Soon his shirt came off and the inspection began. By the long faces and head shakes, you knew the injury was serioiis. When Coach Bill Glassford suddenly emerged from the huddle and booted the 50-yard marker, we had that sinking feeling that Bobby Reynolds had played his last game. Reynolds added to the suspicion with a last wistful look at the playing field as Dr. Frank Stone and Trainer Jim Van Deusen led him from the training room. If the press box was silent during the closing minutes of the half, you hardly heard a word after Publicist John Bentley an nounced during the third quartet that Bobby was through. Even as John made the announcement, we thought of a similar press box scene at halftime at Norman, Okla., two years ago. Rey nolds, then an 18-year-old sophomore, had just exploded for three touchdowns in eight minutes against mighty Oklahoma. Never has an American gridiron, before or since, seen such electrifying ball carrying. As the scribes, a bit winded by the showing, settled back at halftime, an astonishing thing took place. Every scribe, as if in unison, began sending wires to Ted Smits, Associated Press sports editor in New York City. “Recommend that Bobby Reynolds, Nebraska halfback, be named to the Associated Press All-American team,” said the wires, both from partisan Nebraskans and Oklahomans who had been boosting Billy Vessels. Bobby was named on that Associated Press team and many others, became the Los Angeles Times “plaver of the year’” and was the cover boy on a hundred magazines. Yet his hatband never stretched one iota. If that spontaneous display by friend and foe alike two years ago was a tribute to the fellow’s greatness, the grief-filled silence Saturday was a monument. Yet there will be no monument needed to extoll Bobby Rey nolds' achievements when he moves in spirit to a permanent hall of fame. All the gold and oil in the universe could not buy the priceless legacy that Bobby Reynolds has left to the youth of Nebraska and to Husker football. He was an All-American in performance, to be true, a cham pion of champions and forever master of the clutch. Bobby Rey nolds, best of all, would have been an All-American if he had never touched a football. His memory will live as long as unselfish team spirit, high ideals, self sa9rifice, and a competitive heart that knew no bounds. Those are monuments. Mister, that you don't build of stone or steel and Bobby Reynolds leaves them all. For the Huskers, Reynolds perhaps has sacrificed a major league baseball career and a bonus high in the thousands. How many men with Bobby’s yen for baseball would have continued football after that first shoulder separation? Look at Jackie Jensen, Alvin Dark and a score of major leaguers who gave up the gridiron before their collegiate eligibility expired. For the team, he sacrificed All-American honors this season by serving largely as a decoy and blocker in the first four games— the easiest portion of the schedule when you pile up yards and points. Those yards and points, in the long run, spell All-American. Not until the Huskers faced that murderous last six foes was Reynolds and the full Husker offensive to be unwrapped. Well, the wrapping came off prematurely and Penn State, Colorado, Missouri, Kansas, Minnesota and Oklahoma never will know what Bob Reynolds, the fellow who does best against the strongest foe, would have done. His memory will burn through this season and many more,, however, until that current “might have been” is obscured by the dignities of time and true greatness. As long as there are kids in the sandlots, a football flying in a backyard before a proud father or at Memorial stadium before 40,000 fans, the name of Bobby Reynolds will live in glory. “Come on—do it like Bobby Reynolds used to do!” So long.

FITZGERALD, Owner Mitchellville, Iowa i Huskers Win No. 4 i But Lose Reynolds The University of Nebraska Cornhuskers Saturday sluggishly waded through the underdog Kansas State Wildcats 27-13, but the victory—the fourth in a row —proved costly. The Scarlet lost the services of All-American Halfback Bobby Reynolds, who suffered a shoulder separation early in the second quarter. Reynolds suffered a similar— although more severe—injury at the putset of the 1951 season. In 1950 as a sophomore he was honored with numerous all American honors.

Injun’s Spank Cards with Aerial Attack Fumbles Costly to the SMA Crew The' St. Mary s academy Car dinals, playing host to the Marty Mission (S.D.) Indians were spilled, 6-18, last Thursday night on the Carneyl park gridiron in an interstate six-man contest. It was the Iniuns’ aerial game that created the havoc. Left Hallfback M. Decora went 18 yards for Marty’s first TD in the opening period. His running mate, R. Houle, counted the second TD for the Dakotans in the third period, going 1"» yards, and J. Skve, M a r t v ’ s quarterback, plunged from the 6 for the In dians’ third TD. SMA tallied when Fullback George Tomlinson hit from the 5. All tries for extra points, run ning and passing, were foiled. Fumbles proved costly for Coach Joe George's Scarlet. During the first half the Cards served notice they were out to win the ball game but they lacked a second-half punch. Jerry Wanser's pass-grabbing was impressive during the first two periods. The Injuns came to O’Neill un beaten since September 29, 1950, when they bowed to the Cards here 12-32. Meanwhile, they racked up 15 consecutive wins. Earlier games this year produced 45-0 wins twice and a 14-12 con quest. The Cards were to play at Lynch’s homecoming Friday but the game has been cancelled be cause of the polio threat in Boyd county.
