Atkinson, Stuart Land 3 Each
on All-Holt Honor Grid Tearn
Holt county’s "dream team"-a mythical aggregation assembl
ed by the prep coaches in cooperation with The Frontier's sports de
partment. offers everything, Atkinson high, losing only one game (to
a class B power) landed three berths: Stuart, three; St. Mary’s ot
O'Neill, two, and O'Neill, Ewing and Chambers, one each.
Like in previous years, competition on the honor team was in
tense for backfield slots and some juggling was needed in line posi
tions to make the all-star team jell.
Six players won v irtually unanimous ballots—Don Schmaderer of
Stuart. Paul Focken of Atkinson, and Sonny Carl of Ewing, backs;
Bruce Weier of St. Mary's, center; Duane Humphrey of Atkinson, end;
and Larry Tomlinson of St. Mary's, end.
From there on it was a pitcnea •
battle and some coaches were
obliged to revise their selections
slightly to balance out this crew
which ranges from a heavyweight
to a lightweight in the baekfield;
from a 137-pound watcheharm
guard to a ponderous end.
Participating in the balloting
were: Coach Marvin Boesen of
Atkinson, who faced three county
fo«* an dsaw the other two in
action one or more times; Coach
Don Templemeyer of St. Mary’s,
whose team breezed to an all
victorious season in eight-man
circles; Coach Marv Miller of
O'Neill, who played only one Holt
foe Init officiated in other games;
Coach Cliff Hermance of Stuart;
Coach Fritz Reifert of Ewnng and
Coach Bill Witte of Chambers.
All coaches were unanimous In
expressing there was an abund
ance of baekfield material.
This situation, in effect, forced a j
transition of backs into line slots, |
thereby intensifying competition
for line berths.
Thumbnail sketches:
LARRY TOMLINSON, End
One of the liest pass receivers in
area; speed and quickness coup
led with his bulk made him an
ideal receiver. Tomlinson was
a ‘‘vicious downfield blocker”,
said one of the ballots of this St.
Mary’s athlete. Another ballot de
clared: "... a natural athlete,
would be help to any team, well
coordinated". Tomlinson is one
of two juniors on this dream
team.
DUANE HUMPHREY, End —
"Best end of the lot", wrote
one of the coaches. This end
has great hands, he’s tough and
outstfinding on pass defense. He
earned his second letter this year
at Atkinson high. Humphrey is
I =
president of his senior class,
president of the student council
and is a member of the National
Honor society for scholastics.
KEITH McKlM. Tackle — Play
ed center for O'Neill high but
popularity of a fellow townsman,
Bruce W'eier of St. Mary's, forc
ed a shift for McKim to tackle.
"Tough, durable, consistent in
the middle of our line,” said his
coach. He is a junior.
DICK KEIDEL, Tackle Led
Stuart s hardeharging line, was
tough on defense, Keidel is an
A-l student. "Slated for bigger
things in college,” commented
one of the voters. His coach
wrote: "... was just develop
ing into a fine all-around line
man”.
DEAN GARWOOD, Guard—No
body could overlook this salty
chap, a three-letler winner at At
kinson high. Smart, agile and
quick, he was biggest single factor
in Atkinson's surprise win over
Stuart; he also dealt O’Neill and
Ewing had times. Pound-for-pound
he was probably Holt's best per
former this season.
IX)NNIE TAGGART, Guard
Here was a* Chambers back who
was vital and consistent in help
ing Chambers turn in best sea
son in many moons (6-1-D. He
belongs on any mythical Holt
team and was given a guard
berth to make room because of
the heated backfield competition.
Said one coach who officiated a
Cham tiers game: "I could use
him anyplace on my ball team!”
BRUCE WEIER. Center Four
year letterman for the O’Neill
parochial team, smartest defen
sive player on Card club that
yielded few points to opponents.

DON SCHMADERER, Quarter
back One of the best backs to
come out of this area. He built
r869 yards in 127 carries for a 6 8
average, largely against bigger
schools. Completed 68 percent
of his passes, ran the line buck
1 and was especially dangerous on
option play around end. He was
Stuart's high scorer. Said Boes
en’s ballot: "Fine runner, fine
defensive player, good passer
and leader".
DANA BIGELOW, Halfback
Hard driver, could always be
counted on for the three-yard
plunges, four-year vet at Stuart,
"A" student, class leader. Did
Stuart's {Hinting and specialized
"up the middle" in ball carrying.
He nosed out his teammate, Jerry
Taylor, a junior, for this slot, al
so Ronnie Smith of O'Neill, a fleet
sophomore. One ballot said
Smith "belonged even though he
is young, light and green”.
PAUL FOCKEN. Halfback —
He came into his own his senior
year and played great ball on
many occasions; important role
in Atkinson’s best season in many
years. Passed, punted, captain
ed and did most of the Balers’
running. "Best blocker I saw all
season,” wrote one coach.
SONNY CARL, Fullback —
"Standout on a mediocre Ewing
’ team”, declared one of the
! coaches. Averaged 10.7 yards in
three games (he hurt ankle in
opener and was used in line po
sition to protect injury). Ewing
won two of three games with Carl
in backfield hat ness. Brilliant
four-year grid record with the
Tigers. Lethal blocker.
femplemeyer Back
at Academy Helm
Knocks Pneumonia i n
Head After Siege
Now that Coach Don Temple
meycr has successfully knocked
in the head an attack of pneu
monia, he has resumed drill
chores for his 1957-’58 St. Mary’s
academy basketball team.
Templemeyer had to call on
grads, Rev. Robert Duffy and
others to pinch-hit in the boss de
partment while he was bedfast
for more than a week.
The Cards open Tuesday, De
i cember 3, against the Atkinsor
I Balers on the Atkinson rink.
Twenty-one boys are working
out. The original squad of 3f
was cut to speed preseason prac
tice.
Templemeyer predicts his
team will be hardpressed to match
last year's 16-8 record. Lack ol
height will lie the main factor on
one side of the ledger, but potent
Larry Tomlinson, a six footer,
was a whiz as a soph last sea
son. Other lettenvinners are Gary
Holly, Jim McGinn and Bill
Craig.
Making strong bids for varsity
I berths are Lambert Belina, Gale
Stevens, Larry Donohoe, Gene
Schneider, Ronnie Clark, Jack
Sullivan and Terry Hynes.
Some height, however, is in the
offing in underclassmen. Last
season's reserve club, which post
ed a 14-1 record, will offer for
varsity competition Chuck Froe
lich, Larry Mudloff. Bemie
Kamphaus. Fred Snoyvardt, Tom
Higgins, Bill Hynes, Gale Boyle,
John and Larry Wanser and Gene
i Jilg.
Jilg and Mudloff, however,
won’t be eligible for varsity un
til after midyear.
Family season tickets are be
ing offered for seven bucks per,
featuring nine home games.
