The Eagles lost the toss for the third time in a row, and Gordon began their only drive from their 30-yard line. The home team Broncos moved the ball up the field for three first downs be fore the Eagle defense dug in. Steve Peterson knocked down a fourth down pass and O'Neill took over on their own 30-yard line. After no gain on the first two plays, 145 pound halfback, Larry Lieb skirted his right end for 70 yards and O’Neill led 6-0. The try for the extra point failed. Late in the opening stanza, de fensive halfback Terry Kurtz in tercepted a Gordon pass and re turned it to the 17. Steve Peter son drove to paydirt only to have the score called because of a pen alty, but in the next series of plays quarterback Kurtz swept the end from two yards out for the Eagles’ second tally. A pass to Gary Plessell chalked up the extra point and O’Neill led at the end of the first quarter by a 13-0 margin. In the second quarter, halfback Rich Frost gallopped 40 yards to the Broncos’ 18, and two plays later the 140 pound senior ac counted for the third Eagle TD from 16 yards out. Fullback Pet erson plunged for the extra point, and at half time the Eagles led 20-0. The third quarter brought about . a smooth series of ground-gain ing plays for O’Neill, but four straight penalties halted any for ward progress. The remainder of the quarter was played with the Eagles on defense, but Gordon had difficulty moving through the front line defense of Rich Hill, tlary Plessell, and Steve Peter son. i The Eagles regained possession of the pigskin just before the quarter ended, and the O’Neill of fense again began to roll. The ‘Big Blue’ threatened in the op ening minutes of the final per lod, but a fumble on the Gordon 22 stopped the drive. After forc ing the opposition to punt, the passing arm of Terry Kurtz found a hole in the Gordon de fense and passes to Ivan Hurley, Gary Plessell and Rich Hill mov ed the ball to the 2-yard line where Peterson carried across the fourth O’Neill touchdown. The ex tra point attempt failed and mid way through the fourth quarter O’Neill led 26-0. The final Eagle TD was set up on another pass interception by Kurtz that gave the Eagles pos session on the Gordon 40-yard marker. After fine runs by Kall hoff and Peterson, senior end Rich Hill grabbed a pass from twelve yards out. The big boy was hit on the five but he straigh tened out and fell the remaining distance for the final scoring cap er of the evening. Kurtz scored the extra point and the game ended with the local eleven win ning 33-0. Senior fullback Steve Peterson was the Eagles’ most consistent ground gainer, carrying 13 times for a 6'/t yard average. Half backs Frost and Lieb covered the most ground with averages of 14 and 20 yards, respectively, with Lieb’s 70-yard jaunt the long est scoring play of the evening. Terry Kurtz connected with 11 of his 16 aerial attempts for a total of 115 yards, and fullback Ron Kallhoff carried twice for a 5Vi yard average. Overall, the Eagles gained 415 yards, with 300 of them on the ground. The O’Neill defense was led by ends Gary Plessell and Ivan Hur ley, tackle Rich Hill, linebackers Steve Peterson and Ron Kallhoff, and halfbacks Rick Devall and Terry Kurtz. Overall, the Eagles defense was much more improv ed over the previous outings. Coach Jim Taylor’s O’Neill Eagles will take a rest this week end before taking on Ainsworth for the O’Neill Homecoming on October 12th. The 7-7 tie between Ainsworth and Valentine on Fri day still gives the Eagles a chance for a part of the Eastern Rangeland Conference, with O’ Neill’s game with Ainsworth the only conference game remaining on the Eagles’ schedule.

MARY'S 0 0 0 7 7 Minus three regulars from their defensive secondary, the Cards were no match for the fired up St. Cecilia Bluehawks. Poor tack ling and no blocking spelled out defeat as the Cards absorbed their worst beating in nine years. The Bluehawks started with a bang, with a twenty-five yard sprint on the first scrimmage play, and eight plays later they had a first and ten on the Cards ten yard line. Here the Cards dug in and held for three straight plays, forcing a fourth and 10 sit uation, only to have St. Cecilia take to the air and hit a receiver all alone in the end zone. Unable to gain, the Cards were right back on defense after three offeasive tries and a punt. This time the Cards forward wall held firm and three plays netted the opponents but one yard and a punt put SMA in possesion. Three plays picked up five yards and SMA again kicked. As the quar ter changed, so did the Cards tackling, and three players slip ped off the Hastings ball carrier before Larry Gokie pulled him down from behind on the Cards eleven yard line after a forty three yard scamper. Three more plays and they were in for td number two. After an exchange of punts the Cards lost the ball via a pass in terception at midfield. Five plays later the Hawks had scored again, with the big effort being a forty two yard sprint to the Cards three yard line. A Cardinal fum ble following the kickoff gave the Hawks another golden opportuni ty but time ran out on the Cards 18 yard line. The second half started like the Cards meant business as Gokie rambled eight yards on the first play, only to have Donohoe drop ped for an eight yard loss on the next play. An exchange of punts and St. Mary’s picked up their first first down of the evening with a Donohoe to McManus pass good for twenty nine yards to the midfield stripe.

A 22 yard pass play but them m reach and a nine yard smash gave them the score as the third quarter ended 26-0. The Cards gambled on a fourth down situation and fell short with the Hawks taking over on the Cards forty line. With the Cardi nals reserve now in action the Hawks needed but two plays to punch across their score. After the kickoff the Cards promptly fumbled on the first play and St. Cecilia was on the Cards twenty. The little Cards held for five plays but were unable to stem the rush as the count reached 43-0. The Cards second unit picked up 10 yards before giving up the ball and the Hawks reserves marched in for their final TD. SMA's first unit returned to ac tion with two minutes remaining and marched all the way from their 20 yard line to score. Dono hoe skirted left end for 14 yards, then circled the right end for 12 more. Gokie scooted 17 to the Hawks 36, Donohoe netted three yards then connected with Wolfe on a pass play good to the four yard line, .Donohoe then rammed over for the touchdown with two seconds remaining and added the extra point. Despite the shellacking, the Cards had a couple of bright spots, namely the fine defensive effort on the part of Jerry Beha and Terry Tomjack, but two men were not enough to stall the de termined St. Cecilia gridders. All hands came out of the con test in good shape and although defeated the Cards have still shown lots of spirit and determi nation in practice as they pre pare for their toughest encounter of the season, when they go against Burns this Friday at Nor folk.
