Junior Legion
The O’Neill Junior Legion drew
* bye in the first round of tour
nament action this week so the
local boys will play the winner
of the Creighton-Wausa game
Tuesday evening. So far this sea
son, the local Legion has compil
ed an eight wins, nine losses re
cord entering tourney play. They
play Burke this Thursday (tonite)
for their final pre-tourney battle.
Mound duties this season have
been divided between southpaws
Norm Wettlaufer and Keith Rey
noldson, between them they’ve
accounted for 14 of O’Neill’s de
cisions. Ray Belina and Rich Hill
have seen mound action in re
lief, but to assign pitching chores
to either of these would weaken
the defensive lineup.
The O’Neill infield has the po
tential to be the best in the
league, but throughout the sea
son their play has sometimes
been a major disappointment. On
the right side of the diamond.
Lyle Stewart and Ray Belina hold
down the third base and short
stop positions respectively, and
both of these lads are capable of
turning in as fine a performance
as can be expected in this cali
bre of baseball.
But the other half of the infield
h* been somewhat of a prob
lem. Through the course of the
season, Coach Ollendick has em
ployed four players at the first
base position. This position has
been vacated through an injury
to three-year veteran Ken Reyn
oldson, whose slick fielding has
been many times missed by the
O’Neill nine. First base chores
have been handed mainly to 6’ 6”
Rich Hill, and sometimes the big
fella handles the bag real well.
As can be imagined, he covers
quite a bit of ground, but at ot
her times his fielding has been
an understandable headache.
Southpaws Wettlaufer and Reyn
oldson have also seen action here,
but their mound duties are more
of a responsibility.
The departure of Jack McGinn
to the hayfield has left the sec
ond base position wide open.
Smooth-fielding Bill Pruss has
seen considerable play there but
his tournament play will be lim
ited to Midget ball. Rudy Clas
sen and or lefty Reynoldson are
present nominees for this tourn
ament position.
Behind the plate the erratic
catching of Terry Kurtz is a sub
ject the author would just as
soon not discuss, although some
times the maskman can turn in
an almost adequate performance.
Rudy Classen has also seen some
action behind the mask so the
catching chores are fairly well
taken care of.
In the outfield Gary Brewster
will undoubtedly see action in
either right or left, with center
field position being handed to
Sam Knepper. Wettlaufer is pro
bibly the best-fielding outfielder
on the squad, but his presence on
the mound is almost certain. As
to the other position (opposite
Brewster), the return of McGinn
would set a tight infield and ad
equate outfield, but as yet the
problem remains unsolved.
At the plate the O’Neill team
has prominent power in Belina,
Hill, Classen, and Stewart, but
the clutch blows have been one
of the main factors missing in
the team’s five two-runs-or-less
defeats.
Coach Joe Ollendick hopes to
have a large crowd on hand
throughout the Tournament. Im
provements are being made on
the seating arrangements at the
park and top notch action is pro
mised.
The O’Neill Junior Legion play
ed host to Coleridge last Thurs
day and was handed a 2-0 shut
out defeat. The Coleridge nine
tagged losing hurler Keith Rey
noldson for five hits in the seven
inning contest, both runs were
scored in the third inning on two
walks and a single. Reynoldson
walked four and fanned three in
his ninth mound appearance for
O’Neill.
Winning pitcher Tom Morrison
gave up only three singles while
fanning seven and giving up seven
bases on balls. O'Neill hitters left
eight teammates stranded on the
bases.
The local Legion will play
Burke, S. D., here Thursday night
at Carney Park. This game will
conclude O’Neill’s pre-tournament
schedule.. In the two clubs’ pre
vious engagements Burke has
come out on top both times by
scores of 6-3 and 9-2.

Coach Joe Ollendick has ten

laxation and entertainment. If

O'Neill Midgets
Coach Joe OUendick’s Junior
Legion Midgets won two games

posted their pre-tourney record at
10 wins and four defeats. At Bas
sett Sunda afternoon O’Neill
clobbered then hosts 19-12 in a
real slugfest. The winners collect
ed 14 hits, four of these by Rich
Hill. Centerfielder Jerry Dono
hoe accounted for three hits in
his five trips to the plate. Right
hander Joe Shoemaker was cred
ited with the victory, Bossinger
took the loss. Bussinger led Bas
sett’s seven hit attack with two
triples and a double.
O’Neill’s only extra-base hits
were triples by Hill and Bill Pruss
and two baggers by Donohoe and
Hill.

At Ainsworth Sunday night the
tables were somewhat turned as
Ainsworth turned down then
weary visitors 19-5. O'Neill pulled
within two runs in the sixth inn
ing 7-5, but a 12-run final frame
shattered the visitors hopes.
Keith Reynoldson was the los
ing pitcher, he again was the vic
tim of no support as his team
mates committed eight errors be
hind him. The little lefty struck
out 12 in his six-inning stint, Rich
Hill came on in relief.
Larry Zoerb and Bill Rose
blasted homers to lead Ains
worth’s 14 hit attack, Mike Ham
mond collected two singles to
lead the losers at the plate. Bar
tholomew was the winning pitch
er for Ainsworth, he whiffed nine
and walked three while allowing
four singles.
Town Team
The big bat and strong arm of
Rollie Everett led the Atkinson
Town Team to a 3-2 victory over
O’Neill in NCNL competition
Thursday night. Everett pitched
seven-hit ball and slammed a
two-run homer in the sixth inn
ing that proved to be the margin
of victory.
Lloyd Hilligas was the losing
hurler, allowing only six hits. The
local Town Team led 2-1 going
into the sixth frame but Everett’s
smash put the visitors in front
to stay.
O’Neill’s hitting attack was led
by Alvin Carson with three hits,
he accounted for both of the lo
sers’ runs.
O’Neill picked up another easy
victory Sunday evening when
their scheduled game with Tilden
was cancelled because Tilden's
team has desbanded. Then Peters
burg called Saturday and forfeit
ed their final game with O’Neill,
so the local squad will travel to
Verdigre Thursday (tonight) for
their final game of the season.
