Coming over too late were defenders Gene Noell and Bill Nettel mann (24). Ralston Clogged, Ralston defeated Plattsmouth High to end the football season here Frldav nlEht. 24-13, In a ragged, rugged game. More like an opener than a closer, the game was featuied by penalties, fumbles, pass Intercep tions and missed offensive op portunities. Four officials kept a close watch on proceedings and meted out 28 penalties for 245 yards. Many others were declined be cause o game situations. Plattsmouth was penalized 12 times for 100 yards, Ralston 16 times for 145. Ralston fumbled four times and lost the ball all four. Platts mouth lost four out of eight fumbles. Ralston used good passing and quarterbacklng by John McPher son to keep the Plattsmouth def ense edgy all night. He complet ed 11 of 19 passes for 137 yards and that was the difference between the teams. Plattsmouth had only one completion for 27 yards in nine tries and had two passes stolen. One score and another go'den scoring chance were erased by penalties. Still, the Issue was not sealed until the fourth quarter when with Just over a minute left Mc pherson hit Dennis Kollell in the end zone with an 11-yard pass. Before that, Plattsmouth had rallied to pull to within a score, after trailing, 18-6, at the half. , Kollell had. put his team ahead in the first quarter, scoring on a lour-yarder after Ralston re covered a Plattsmouth fumble on, the PHS 11. The Blue Devils stopped the try for point. They drew even later in the period, when Dave Nettelmann punched through from the four on third down. .Cajl Ahaus re covery of a Ralston fumble on the Ralston 13 had set up the score. Nettelmann carried on all three plays in the scoring series, getting eight and one yards the first two times. A pass by Jack Scott for the extra point was batted away by an onrushing" lineman. The next Ralston score In the second quarter was a gift. Tom Allen picked ' up a bounding fumble on the Plattsmouth 25 and raced to the end zone. There was still hope for the Deils when they stopped the try for point. But, odds increased when Al Rowe took a 24-yard pass frcm McPherson to make it 18-6 be fore Intermission. Wins, 24-13,' in bugged IFimaDe The score stayed that way though the next quarter of the drawn-out game until a Ralston punt went almost straight up and was returned by Ahaus for a net of only three yards. It waj Plattsmouth's ball on the six. Dennis Adams knifed for four and then on second down plung ed for the score. Scott kicked the point for an 38-13 tally with 3:40 remaining. Penalties hurt Plattsmouth the most thereafter and gave Ral ston the chance to ice the game. Plattsmouth wound up with a 3-6 season mark and the pro spect of some 17 lettermen re turning next season.

Eisenhower, former President; "If I were giving one political piece of advice to associates in government, or past associates, I would say: 'When you're in, never debate with in outer." LINCOLN Hunters are hav ing no trouble bagging waterfowl in the state's myriad of hunting spots, the Game Commission reoorts. Foul weather brought in water fowl ga'ore just in time for the duck season opener, ana tne birds have stayed around. "Many Missouri River hunters claim that during the past week they saw the largest flights of ducks in five years," one conser vation officer reported. Ducks are buildlm? up on Lake Babcock near Columbus and eastern Platte River shooters can choose targets from 10,000 rewly arrived ducks that have come in near Fremont. Lewis and Clark Reservoir and the Santee area welcomed 15,000 mallards in recent days. Ducks in large numbers ar rived on the Platte near North Platte and are giving hunters opportunity for good shooting. Walgren Lake is still holding about 8,000 birds and cornfield hunting in this refuge area is good. Birds have moved from the river area near Scottsbluff to i the large lakes. About 6,000 were counted at Lake Alice and 19,000 moved into Lake Minatare. Fou" I hundred geese, Canadas and a few snows, were also located nt Lake Minatare. Hunters were having no trouble bagging limits at Broad water, on the Garden County refuge, and at Lake McConaucliy where 17,000 ducks and 5,0i'0 geese are conclaving. Hunters Asked To Submit Rare Species LINCOLN Hunters arc asked to he'.n complete a waterfowl col lection belnt made by the Game Commission which includes both common and rare species of birds. "Many ducks and geese have been mounted, but we are shoit a few of the less common vari eties. When hunters shoot these we would like to have them," chief of game, Lloyd Vance, re quests. Purpose of the collection is study and identification. Birds needed Include: the whl'e-winged scoter, common scoter, bufflehead drake, old squaw, common and barrows golden eye, and the female of the ringneck duck and lesser scaup. If the bagged bird is in good condition, the hunter is reques ted to give it to the local conser vation officer who in turn will deliver it to the Game Division for mounting. tin, Ji B t i . h. 1 n RUNNERSUP The Oysters finished the reg ular schedule in a tie for first in the Junior High intramural football league, lost the. playoff to the Eagles.
