    Duck Season to
Start Saturday
Commission Offers
Aid for Identity
Nebraska’s duck season starts
Saturday. And the Nebraska
game commission says it can
oome to the aid of those who
argue in the blind about what
type of fowl was shot.
Of the many kinds of ducks
stalked in Nebraska, only a few
are readily identified. Even the
experienced hunter gets some that
are puzzling.
To help solve this, the com
mission has copies of a “key” to
identification available. The key
lists characteristics of ducks.
That is, types of wings, necks,
and so on. You match up the
characteristics on the duck with
the key and you can tell what
you have shot.
The season will open on Octo
ber 8 one-half hour before sun
rise. The hunters will assemble
late Friday and during the wee
hours on Saturday. Hunters will
need a duck stamp and postal of
ficials urge purchases be made
early.
Few ducks are expected to
be found In Holt county al
though the Niobrara and Mis
souri river hunting grounds
will yield plenty of birds to
the nimrods.

Eagles Fizzle in
Role of Favorite
Creighton Maintains
Undefeated Status
CREIGHTON— The Creighton
Bulldogs kept their season’s per
fect record intact Friday night by
punishing the favored O’Neill
high Eagles, 39-7, in a walk.
Creighton went into the game la
boring under the tradition of a
chain of unbroken O’Neill vic
tories extending over the past
seven years.
But Friday night the Eagles
were outcharged, outfought, out
tackled and outplayed.
The Eagles erred in taking
Creighton too lightly. The Ma
roons had defeated Atkinson, Til
den and Hartington in early en
counters and yielded only one
touchdown in the first three
starts.
The damage was done in the
first half during which the
Bulldogs accumulated four
touchdowns and two PAT’s. O’
Neill didn’t get into the scor
ing column until the Maroons
let the bars down in the final
period.
John Sucha started the scoring
in the initial period with a 14
yard run. In the second stanza,
Melvin Metties passed to Nor
man Doerr in a play that carried
43 yards and netted TD number
2.
Tom Kile raced nine yards and
Gary Groeling plowed five yards
for TD’s number 3 and 4, respec
tively, in the disastrous second.
Meties kicked for two extra
points during the first half.
After intermission the Maroons
came back strong with Metties
punching over a TD. He passed
to Sucha for the extra point,
boosting the count to a humiliat
ing 33-0.
in me lourm period, is.en
Backhaus, O’Neill’s hard running
halfback, punched over for the
Eagles’ only TD. The try for the
extra point was good.
Metties intercepted an O’Neill
pass in the fourth perod and ran
50 yards to end Creighton’s scor
ing. #
The Eagles will travel to Ains
worth Friday night for a North
Central conference game. Ains
worth was scuttled last week by
league-leading Valentine.
Valentine Captures
3d Conference Game
VALENTINE — The Valentine
Badgers scored their third con
secutive North-Central Nebraska
conference grid win by handing
the Ainsworth Bulldogs a 19-0
shellacking Friday night.
Hale Kreycik scored twice in the
second period—once on a two
yard off-tackle slant and the other
on a 12-yard pass. Bowdish scam
pered for a third period touch
down for the victors.
The Badgers have lost only to
the Norfolk Panthers. That was
an 0-6 reversal in the first game
of the season.

Niobrara scored during the
second period when Charles Mc

eight-yard-line. The attempt for
the extra point failed.
St. Mary’s scored its fifth
touchdown on a pass play from
the Cards’ own five-yard line as
Donohoe received a 35-yard pass
from Head. Head sneaked the ball
over to boost the count to 34.
