FOOTBALL -• ' •.• . j s ' § ' - ' v ■ p- ' ' -. . • ' -W ' » Head coach Ed Simonich and his assistant Dan McCarthy. Although hindered by a scarcity of material, Ed and Dan turned in a fine season ' s work and they can well be proud of their accomplishments. The men on the team are very grateful for the time and energy both of these men devoted to the team. Captain Kelly Hemmert Besides being captain .and the only senior mem- ber of the ' 59 team, Kelly was named first-team halfback of the Montana Collegiate Conference foot- ball team. In addition to being the leading ground gainer in the conference, Kelly was fifteenth in the nation in small colleges for individual rushing. Dur- ing the year he won the title of the One Man Gang of the Orediggers. All through the season he was a great team player and was respected by every member of the team. 92

OREDIGGER SQUAD FOR 1353— Front row. lelt to right: J. Burk, S. Muiherin, W. Johnson, M. Moore, R. Golds-worthy. E. Skubitz, L. ludd; Center row: Coach Ed Simonich, J. Vichorek, I. Walsh, G. Kravik, M. Keegan, K. Hemmerl, J. Bloke, Dan McCarthy, assistant coach; D. Mahagin, manager: Third row: L. Judd, W. Tiddy, D. Del Paggio. S. Bosch, M. Mines, P. Atkinson. B. Bilyeu, C. Brown. As has been the case for the last several years, the Mines football team was hampered by the lack of manpower. At times during the year the number of players for a game was less than nineteen. For some practice sessions there were less than ten men on the field. With only one senior and two juniors as the backbone of the squad, it was tough to compete against the other teams of the conference who have scholarships for their players. What they lacked in size and number, the Orediggers made up for in spirit. No matter how great the odds against them, not once during the season did the squad quit trying. This year the team played a five-game season and failed to win a game. In a game against Northern the team was defeated in the last forty-five sec- onds. Throughout the year the men played several fine games only to be worn down by superior numbers. Many young players showed great promise for the next season. 93
