A happy crew of O'Neill High
Eagles battled Ains-worth last Fri
day evening and walked away
with a hard-earned 20-6 victory,
and their second straight East
ern Rangeland Conference cham
pionship. Senior fullback, Steve
Peterson led the way for Coach
Jim Taylor’s eleven, averaging
nearly eight yards per carry be
fore being taken out of the clos
ing minutes of the game because
of an ailing leg.
The OHS team lost the tots, of
course (they’ve yet to win the
flip of-the-coin bit in their first
five contests), and the Eagles
kicked off to the anxious Bull
dogs to o[>on action in the 4th
annual Homecoming classic.
A tough defense forced the vis
itors to punt, and the Eagles’ of
fense responded with a 62-yard
sustained march that resulted in
a quick 7-0 lead. The first quar
ter march was led by ‘Power
Pony’ Peterson, who carried for
gains of 13 and 28 yards. Enor
mous end Rich Hill grabbed a
pass and raced the final ten
yards to score. Terry Kurtz car
ried for the extra point, and
the Eagles seemed well on their
way.
After again forcing the opj>osi
tion to punt, OHS began their
second march toward paydirt on
ly to have a pass interception
halt their drive on the 18-yard
line. A fumble and Ainsworth’s
second aerial theft put stoppers
on the other Eagle drives in the
first half. End Gary Plessell, 152
pound senior, thwarted all Bull
dog attempts in the first two
quarters, playing exceptionally
tough in his final Homecoming
contest. Twelve OHS seniors saw
their finale in Homecoming ac
tivities in Friday night’s battle.
During the half-time ceremon
ies, Seniors Esther Young and
Richard Frost were crowned roy
alty of the Homecoming activi
ties.
After the intermission, the Ea
gles started off as though their
minds were still on everything
but football. Two fumbles and an
unsuccessful! sweep attempt forc
ed the Eagles to punt, and Ains
worth began their only scoring
drive from 44 yards out. Senior
halfback Royce Greder popped
over from three to cap the
march, but the try for the extra
point was unsuccessful. Not un
usual though, the Eagle defense
has yet to allow an extra point
to be scored against them so far
this season.
Really fired up now, the ‘Big
Blue’ bulled its way to the sec
ond tally of the battle, with full
back Ron Kallhoff thundering
through from the 17-yard line
The extra jioint was unsucessful
and the home town boys led l’-0.
The final scoring march cam*
in the final stanza when senioi
quarterback Terry Kurtz floater
a 31 yard TD toss to flanker Riel
Frost. The flashy halfback made
a dazzling reception and eludec
his defender to complete an ex
ceptionally well-executed play
Kurtz took advantage of fine fak
ing and again carried across the
point-after-touchdown, and th<
score ended at 20-6.
The O’Neill defense was agair
exceptional, with Plessell leading
the way. Senior Homecoming at
tendent, Rick Devall also turnec
in a fine job at his defensive
halfback position.
Penalties, fumbles and pass in
terceptions kept the OHS elever
from really racking the Bulldogs
as their Homecoming efforts wen
not to be denied.
The real clincher of the eve
ning came about 30 minutes aftei
the final whistle ended the O’
Ncill-Ainsworth game, when wort
reached town that the red-hoi
Badgers of Valentine upset the
home team Bassett Tigers. The
visiting Valentine squad crossec
the goal in the final quarter foi
the 6-0 conference decision tha
sprung the championship in the
direction of O’Neill.
The Eagles will travel to Crof
ton this Friday for their sixtl
game of the season. The OHS
Reserves lost to Neligh on Mon
day night 54-7. Freshman Larrj
Krugman raced 60 yards for the
only OHS tally.

The Cards notched their first
victory Thursday in a stubbornly
fought tussle with the Ewing Ti
gers. Both teams relied on un
derclassmen, as all told, only
three seniors were on the field,
one for SMA and two for Ewing,
which promises a number of
close battles for years to come.
The Cards enjoyed a healty
edge in the statistics but were
forced all the way as they con
tinued to be hampered by their
own miscues. SMA was unable to
advance the ball the first two
times they gained possession. A
fumble on the second play stopped
the first drive and a penalty
the second opportunity, but then
the Cards got a break as a high
punt by Owen Donohoe was fum
bled by the receiver and recover
ed by SMA on Ewing's 32. It took
the Cards just four plays to score,
a pass from Bruce Appleby to
Mike Hammond picked up 12 yds.
Larry Gokie scampered 17 yds to
the three and in two sneaks Ap
pleby took it over. Late in the
first quarter the Cards penetrated
to the 20 but an offside set them
back. At the start of the second
quarter the Cardinals marched
down field to the 11 yd line, only
to run out of gas and stall as the
Ewing defense stiffened.
Ewing cashed in on a recoverec
fumble on the Cards 24 and five
plays later Joe Tagel crashed ir
for the score and added the point
The second half found the
Cards moving to the Tigers 2\
before being stopped. Then aftei
forcing a Ewing punt, the Card:
marched 70 yards in 11 plays te
score the winning points. Some
fine running by Danny Wolfe ane
Gokie, plus a fine catch by Ham
mond on a fourth down pass gooe
for 14 yards kept the drive mov
ing and put the ball on the 21
yard line, Gokie then picked ug
six yards and followed with a 11
yard sweep to score.
After an exchange of kicks the
Tigers started a last desperate
drive in the closing minutes, bu
Joe Shoemaker intercepted <
pass with 24 seconds remaining
and the Cards ran out the clocl
as they picked up the victory.
Fine defensive play by Did
Larsen and Terry Tom jack, plus
the running of Gokie and pass
receptions by Hammond sparkee
the Cards.
Gokie, the Cards workhorse foi
the evening picked up 69 yds ii
12 carries.
The Cards play at Butte thi:
Friday. Butte suffered their firs
defeat last week at he hands a.
Stuart 18-0. The Wildcats have
size and speed but lack a little
depth. Seven seniors make ug
the first unit and five of the
starting team tips the scales a
better than 180 lbs.

Lynch Firm Is
Charged with
Labor Violation
KANSAS CITY — Violations of
the overtime provisions of the

leged against Glen D. Hull, op

Company, Lynch, Neb., in an in
junction suit on file in U. S. Dis
trict Court at Lincoln.
The complaint was filed in the
name of Secretary of Labor W.
Willard Wirtz. It also alleged
that Hull failed to maintain ad
equate time and pay records re
quired under the law.
Hull provides sand and gravel
for construction and repair of
roads.
Floyd L. Wilson, supervisor of
the U. S. Labor Department's
Omaha Wage-Hour office, said
his agency’s computations show
$8,324 in back pay due 24 em
ployes of the establishment.
The law requires payment of
time-and-a-half for hours worked
in excess of 40 per work week.
The injunction sought would bar
Hull from future violations of the

Telephone Co.
Announces New
Billing System
C. R. Alexander, Northwestern
Bell manager, has announced
that customers will begin receiv
ing a telephone bill with a “new
look" this month.
Major change m the format
will be a combination of the bill
and the long distance statement
on a single sheet of paper.
Mr. Alexander explained that
for some time customers may
receive an additional long dis
tance statement listing calls
which are not now processed
mechanically. Eventually, how
ever. all calls (to a maximum of
12) will appear on the one-piece
bill. Customers who make more
than 12 calls in a month will then
receive a continued statement on
a similar form.
More easily understood billing
information is another advantage
of the new bill. Customers are
not expected to have any trou
ble understanding the bill, but
a folder explaining it will ac
company the first such bill a cus
tomer receives. The Telephone
Business Office will be glad to an
swer any questions that might
arise.
