Lynch Scores TD
in Final 15 Seconds
Crippled Cards Still
Needing a Win
Th£ visiting Lynch high Eagles
snatched victory from the wn
less St. Mary’s Cardinals in the
last 15 seconds of their six-man
grid exhibition played Friday
afternoon in Carney park.
Halfback McDonald skirted end
from the SMA 5 and hit pay dirt
with the winning touchdown,
giving Lynch a 24-21 victory.
Lynch stayed in front until
the final period when there was
a dizzy parade of touchdowns
for both teams in a rock 'em,
sock 'em finale.
Lynch scored a TD shortly af
ter the opening kickoff with Mc
Donald rambling across from 40
yards out. Early in the second
period the visitors methodically
worked the ball down and coun
tered again.
Coach Bob Berigan’s kids muff
ed a scoring opportunity midway
in the second period. They reach
ed the enemy 8 and the ball
squirted away from an SMA back
in a complicated double-lateral
scoring effort.
Just before the halftime gun
barked, SMA Back Dick Graham
started through the line from his
own 25, lateraled wide to Half
back George Tomlinson, who ran
45 yards to score. Jim Schmitz
caught a pass for the PAT and
the half ended, 12-7, with Lynch
in front.
but both teams explo led in the
frantic fourth.
The third period was scoreless,
With five minutes remaining in
the game, Graham faked a lateral
to Tomlinson but kept it and ran
50 yards to put SMA in front.
Schmitz caught a pass and SMA
owned a 14-12 edge.
The Cards kicked to the
Eagles. A long pass to McDon
ald put the visitors on SMA's
8. Three plays later they were
across. Score: Lynch 18. St.
Mary's 14.
Lynch kicked to the Berigan
crew and on of the first scrim
mage, Terry Wanser heaved to
Mike London who reversed his
field about four times and cross
ed the Lynch goal standing up
The play covered 65 yards. Tom
linson ran the extra point. Score:
St. Mary’s 21, Lynch 18.
SMA kicked to Lynch and the
Cards were holding until a
roughing penalty in midfield put
the ball deep in SMA territory.
From there and on a fourth
down, Mr. McDonald racked up
the winning TD. Score; Lynch
24, St. Mary’s 21
Lynch kicked to St. Mary’s.
The Cards had time for one play
and the game endeU.
St. Mary’s was penalized more
than one hundred yards. Chief
penalties were backfield in mo
tion and offsides.
The Cards, still gunning for a
victory, will entertain Sacred
Heart of Norfolk tonight (Thurs
day) in Carney park. The Sacred
Heart Knights are vndefeated
and are one of the top ranking
six-man crews in the svate.
The Cardinals have been handi
capped all season by injuries, and
had difficulty mustering a squad
for Friday’s go with Lynch.
Stuart, Ainsworth
Finish in Deadlock
STUART — The Stuart high
Broncos tied the Ainsworth Bull
dogs by a score of 12-12 on the
Stuart gridiron Friday night, Oc
tober 16. The Broncs were in high
gear, aiming to please a large
homecoming crowd. It was a
morale victory for the Stuart
crew, because Ainsworth, a much
larger school, held a decided ad
vantage in the history books.
The score read 6-6 at the half
and the entire team played good
clean football throughout the
hard-fought game.
Don Wewel carried the ball
over the line for both of Stuart’s
touchdowns.
This was Stuart’s last home
game. The Broncos will engage
Ewing on Friday at Ewing.
Albion Cardinals
Whip Atkinson, 32-0
ATKINSON — Atkinson high
school’s football team was de
feated by Albion on Atkinson’s
home field Friday night, 32-0.
It was the fourth game of the
season in which Atkinson has
failed to score.
The Atkinson team’s only two
touchdowns were scored against
Valentine two weeks ago when
Valentine won, 18-12.
The score at half-time was 6-0,
but the Atkinson defense broke
early in the third quarter and
Albion score four more touch
downs.

Loop Leadership
Meadow Grove Nipped
in Thriller
CHAMBERS—Coach L. J. Ek
dahl’s Chambers high Coyotes
currently are enjoying a share of
the top rung of the Sandhills
Gateway conference ladder in
six-man grid competition
By virtue of twm victories in
the past two weeks, 26-13 over
Brunswick and 20-19 over Mead^
ow Grove, and an Elgin loss to
Orchard, the Coyotes share the
top spot in the loop with Orchard
and Elgin.
In the Brunswick game, the
Coyotes exhibited a powerful
running attack and a rockribbed
defense. A goal line stand in the
third quarter brought high
praise from the partisans. Bruns
wick had a first down on the 1
yard-line, ran four plays, and
failed to score.
Chambers led at the half 19-0,
and with this lead was content
to run the ball the rest of the
second half. Only three Chambers
passes were thrown the entire
afternoon.
On Friday the Coyotes met
Meadow Grove, which recently
had defeated Orchard. It was
Meadow Grove that snapped Or
chard’s 13-game win streak.
In a seesaw battle, that was a
thriller from start to finish.
Chambers defeated Meadow
Grove 20-19. Extra points pro
vided the margin of victory. The
Meadow Grove spread attack
gave the Coyotes many anxious
moments. The powerful running
attack featured for Chambers.
The next game for the Coyotes
is with Orchard at Chambers.
The Coyote record is now four
wins and one loss. The lone set
back was handed by Elgin, 19-12.
