The Frontier Picks 1959 All-Holt County Football Squad
St. Mary's, O'Neill High
Place Six and Five Each
Ewing, Stuart
Atkinson Are
Represented
There's just too much talent in
the county!
That's the way you fee! when
you try to pick eleven of the best
football players from the four
eleven m/m football teams in Holi
county.
O’Neill St. Mary's with thm
terrific size, and O'Neill high
school, with their great speed,
dominate the all-county football
team, placing six and five men
respectively on the team.
Two men from Ewing end one
each from Stuart and t ikinsor
make up the 15 m/m squad
Because of the fine backfield
men in the county, especially on
the two O'Neill teams, the Frontier
has chosen an offensive and a
defensive backfield.
So here they are:
Offensive backfield: Kill llynes,
St. Mary's, jr.. 185 lbs. Jim Shoe
maker, St Mary's, sr., 170 lbs
Jerry Kllooln, O'Neill higl . soph
l»»rr<i Kmier. O'Neill high, jr
Defensive backfield: Gale
Stevens, St. Mary's, sh., 181 lbs
Larry Itotilln, O’Neill high jr. Tom

(Am Hahlbeek, guard, sr. Ewing
high. 185 lbs Iterney hai inhuus,
tackle, sr . St. Mary's, '.'0 lbs.
Boh Eby, O N'dll high, en t, sr.
And there it is. The Frontier
feels that th -se 15 men would give
any team in the state, regardless
o Fc, a ’fsxi go.
Tom EliKKins, tackle, 210
|mmiii«I j ui v f for St. .Mary’s,
l’layed e. • !;Uly well on de
fense hu m ys had that added
push to open the holes.
Bob Eby Pill 1, senior, O'Neill
high. Was on the receiving end
of man , pa.ses when the chips
were d wa. Eby kept many plays
to the inside and was a good
rusher on pass defense.
■Bill ■ III HI I ’MB?" -•' " ■ "Wf
Larry Dunlin, back, junior,
O'Neill high. Really tough. Lur
ry was in on most tackles and
plugged the holes swiftly. As a
blocker, he is unsurpassed and
paved the way for many long
gains.
Roger Dobias, hack, senior,
Atkinson high. As quarterback
of the Italers he le<1 his team
through a rough season. He
never gave up and his speed
and heighth made him good de
fensive safety.
Bill ll> nes, back, lfW pound
junior for St. Mary’s. Excellent
blocker, could score from a dis
tance, picked up Mi yards in
<;o fries. Called the roughest de
fensive man In Cardinal history.
i lea
Turn Brewster, back, junior,
Stuart high. A shifty back with
great speed, he quarterbacked
the Stuart eleven. His speed
qualifies him as a good defen
sive safety man.
,:.V. . * JJ. .)
Fred Wright, end, 151 pound
junior for Ewing high. Although
light, ho is very fast itnd stopped
many plays behind the line of
scrimmage. A good pass catch
er, he worked well on a pass
lateral play which Ewing used
this year.
■L\Yk /A
Leon liahlbeck. guard, 185
pound senior for Ewing high.
Although llahlbeck did not play
guard this season, he did play
tackle and no Holt county team
wouf\J be complete without him.
The fact that he finished the
season at fullback gives him the
speed necessary in a good
guard. Fine linebacker.
Cal Feters, center. 200 pound sophomore for
St. Mary's. Opened the middle on sneak plays
and allowed the quarterback to average 8Vi yards
per try. Was select'd as an honorable mention
for all-state center.

St. Mary ’s. Strong on both offense and defense
and played middle defensive guard. Few teams
could sneak on this man.

ior, O’Neill high. Always seemed !
to he at the right place at the !
rigid time. Opponents swore that |
he came up out of flu- ground
to make some of the tackles.
Jerry Kilcoin, back, sopho
more. O’Neill high. Fast and
shifty, this O’Neill high sopho
more Is a must.
'’’’"I
Gale Stevens, back, 181 pound
