He had a big green paper four-leaf clover pinned to his jacket, though the Ord colors are red and white. He also had a large with a lucky penny taped to the middle. way we played the last couple of Squier said, need all the luck we can But his No.

3 rated ball club depended on the hard running of fullback Larry Wells and a stingy defense rather than luck to hand the Bluejays a 12-0 setback. Maybe some luck was present. Ord capitalized on two breaks, a Seward fumble and a poor punt, to tally its two touchdowns in the game played in near-zero wind chill index conditions. The first time coach Jim Seward club got the ball, Dale Peterson gobbled up a fumble at the Blue- 29-yard line and seven plays later Wells crashed in from the three for the first score. But when the extra point kick, attempted into the icy gale fell short, Ord was forced to nurse a slim 6-0 lead until midway through the final frame when Wells settled the issue with another TD.

Seward generated one serious threat, but a stiffening Ord defense and the clock kept the Bluejays from scoring just before halftime. Brian Dittmann broke away for the only long gainer when he slashed off tackle from the Seward 20 and galloped 64 yards to the Ord 16 before he was hauled down. But after gaining one first down, a final hurried play was a yard short of paydirt as time expired. It was the only serious threat, while Ord tallied the insurance touchdown after Seward was backed up to its own goal and was forced to punt into the strong, cold wind. The kick only got out to the 21.

Three straight carries by Wells got the ball down to the two from where he plowed over to complete the scoring. key was our stopping the Seward drive at the end of the first Squier admitted. thought our kids showed a lot of poise to organize the defense after that long run.

Times change, however.

And an undercurrent of unrest as residents have begun to realize the responsibility for such an undertaking, plus the possible consequences of playing host to the 10 days of competition. Two conservation groups, Protect Our Mountain Environment and the Mountain Area Planning Council, are heading opposition to the games, saying mountainsides will be scarred by ski jumps, bobsled and luge runs, the landscape blighted by parking lots and new roads, and the water disturbed ancl possibly polluted by construction. Meanwhile, the Denver Olympic Committee, the volunteer group which spent seven years and more than $750,000 in successfully bidding for the games, is taking a and attitude, buying time until it can dissolve itself into a professional group with a separate planning commission to oversee all Olympic efforts. This group, the committe says, would help determine the impact of the games on the community, and on the environment. But Vance R.

Dittman head of POME, says the and attitude is one of the mam reasons Evergreen residents are on edge. Keith Ball, 54, editor of the weekly Canyon Courier in Evergreen, said Wednesday he thinks the Denver committee has done a poor job in promoting goodwill and a good image for the games. And goodwill is definitely lacking in Evergreen, as far as the games are concerned, he said.

But even though he been announced as the starter at left guard the last two home games the 216-pound California transplant is making a good impression where it counts with his teammates and the coaching staff. Rupert, who came to the Cornhusker camp last spring after a couple of good seasons at Harbor Junior College in California, take a direct route to the starting job he claimed before the Minnesota game.

He spent tlie first portion of spring practice at defensive end as the coaches looked for replacements for the departed Mike Wynn and Sherwin Jarmon. just my position.
