Eagles Suffer First Loss;
Burwell Ends Win Streak
Take 81-67
Win At
Bassett Friday
Thirteen proved to be the un
lucky number for the O’Neill
Eagles on Saturday as they drop
1**1 their decision after twelve
straight victories. The giant-kill
ers were the Longhorns of Bur
well, who won their ninth victory
in a row after i<»sing their first
three starts. The outside shoot
ing of senior Joe Hoppes proved
the difference in the battle as
the veteran Longhorn pumped in
32 points in the 59-52 triumph.
The Eagles started out slow iq
the first quarter, managing only
two free throws in the first six
minutes of action as the visitors
jumped to a 13-8 first quarter
lead. A 20-point second period
shot the Eagles into a 28-27 ad
vantage at half-time. Gary Ples
sel! spurred the big blue’s first
half attack with nine points.
But then the Longhorns seemed
to put the lid on the Eagles bas
ket as the O’Neill crew could on
ly manage eight points in the
third quarter while Burwell net
ted 12 to take a 39-36 lead into
the final stanza.
Again the Eagles rallied, and
when they shot into a six-point
• lead with less than three min
utes left in the contest it seem
ed as though the big blue could
hold onto their advantage. But a
flurry of ball handling mistakes
and mental errors gave BurwelJ
the edge they needed amd the
visitors regained the lead and
forced the Eagles to come out
and foul them.
, Hoppes cashed in 23 j>oints the
second half, 14 of these in the
final quarter. Burwell’s 6’ 5”
Mick Ashman, who tips the scales
at nearly 250 pounds, dominated
both boards throughout the con
test while pumping in 14 points
in the first half.
All-stater Rich Hill collected on
ly 18 points to top the Eagles.
Sophomore Ivan Hurley added 13
to the losing cause.

The story was just reversed for
the Eagles on Friday night as
they broke the jinx of the Bassett
ham and rambled to an 81-67 tri
umph over the Rock County Ti
gers. The big blue had an offen
sive carnival as all five starters
marked up double figures in the
score book.
The first half was a hot and
heavy battle with both teams
shooting the bottom out of the
net. Terry Kurtz scored 12 points
in the first half for the Eagles
and Bassett's Kent Estes netted
14 in the first two stanzas as
the score was deadlocked 37-37 at
the intermission.
A big third quarter, character
istic of the Eagles (when they
win), took the wind out of the
Tigers’ sails and the big blue
coasted into the fourth quarter
with a ten-point lead. But the vis
iting Eagles weren’t about to let
up as they racked up 23 more
points in the final period to hike
the final tally to 81-67.
Big Rich Hill led the scoring
with 20 points, followed by Kurtz’s
18 counters. Ivan Hurley added
17, Rich Frost scored 13, and
Gary Plessell contributed 10 more
to the Eagle’s cause.
The red headed Estes finished
the game with 16 points to pace
the Tigers. Senior Jim Connick’s
15 points included ten in the sec
ond half.

Cardinals Whip
Lynch Eagles
For Seventh Win
St. Mary’s put forth a tremen
dous last quarter rally to dump
in 24 points while holding Lynch
to 14 counters as they won their
seventh victory of the year Fri
day night.
The Cards, trailing all the way,
sometimes by as much as 10 pts,
rallied from a 42-48 deficit in the
last three minutes to win in the
closing seconds as Owen Dono
hoe hit a jump short to break
a 52-52 tie with but 10 seconds re
maining, then Jerry Donohoe hit
a charity toss to give the Cards
a 55-52 margin with just six sec
onds left in the game. An Eagle
basket and a Cards gift toss fin
ished out the scoring.
Owen Donohoe and Norman
Mudloff paced all Cards scoring
with 22 and 16 points as nine
St. Mary’s players hit the scoring
column.
Vhg King paced Lynch with
15 points followed by Fred Boel
ter and Monty Pickering with
12 each.
Cold, cold shooting kept the
Cards in trouble all night as they
managed to hit on but 21 of 75
attempts from the field, while
Lynch connected on 21 of 56 tries.
Fourteen out of 23 free throws
spelled the difference for the
Cards.
The Junior Cards won 42-25
with Danny Wolfe leading with
12 points.
St. Mary's Downs
Spalding 81-53
In Easy Victory
Hitting a hot 64 per cent from
the field for the first quarter, the
Cards raced to a 23-15 lead over
Spalding Academy and never
trailed as they picked up their
eighth win of the season.
Working the fast break to near
perfection the Cards simply used
their abundant manpower to run
away from the Spalding Sham
rocks.
Eight players tallied for the
Cardinals, all of them reaping 7
or more points, with Owen Don
ohoe hitting 18 to set the pace.
Mudloff earned 13 and Coventry,
and Jerry Donohoe picked up
10 each, followed by Hammond
with 9 and Shoemaker, Appleby
and Tomjack with 7 each.
Bill Pruss, another oi the Cards
mainstays, was sidelined by an
ankle injury suffered in Monday’s
practice and will be out of ac
tion for a week or so.
The Reserves won their con
test with Wayne Sindelar hitting
for 25 points.

Orders Received
For 30,000 Trees;
Planting Nears
Plans are underway for another
big year of tree planting in Holt
Soil and Water Conservation I>ist
rict. To date orders have been
received for over 30,000 trees with
about two months remaining be
fore the planting season actually
begins.
Superv isors of the Holt Soil and
Water District urge coopcrators
to make their tree planting plans
as soon as possible to 'ease the
last minute rush, allow' for more
adequate ground preparation and
to be sure of getting the desired
species. Rocky Mountain junipers
are sold out and Austrian pine
are in short supnly through the
Clarke McNary program.
The District plans to operate
two tree crews tins spring
which will mean that ail trees
will be planted well within the
spring season. They also plan
to operate a sprayer to apply
siniagln to the tree row to pre
vent the growth of all annual
weeds.
An additional service being o7
fored this year for the first time
is a replanting program. Coop
erators may hire District em
ployees to hand plant trees that
are missing in belts two or three
years old. This is very important
in obtaining a good belt and yet
a job that too often is not taken
care of at the proper time. Cost
shares through ACP or GP will
take care of from fifty percent
to seventy five percent of the
cost of replanting.
A good tree planting can be of
untold value in protecting farm
steads, feed lots and cropland
fields if properly planned, plant
ed and maintained. However a
belt that has opening in it where
trees have died out reduces its
effectiveness tremendously. Re
planting the proper species and
having a full stand will greatly
improve the effectiveness of
windbreaks.

made a home, for two grand
children left alone;
May Go 1 grant her a golden
crown; for greater forgiveness
can no where be found.
We’ll miss that smile and ready
wit, and a little chuckle that
was part of it;
So goodbye friend you have pass

your reward of eternal rest
