Unfortunately for both EOC and the brothers, injuries ham pered them all season long ana neither was able to see much action. Head Coach Archie Duns moor lettered both, however, feeling that their services were worth at least that commenda tion. Mark, who is the younger of the two at 19, injured a knee before the season started and never did recover to past form. A 1966-67 letterman as well, the sophomore halfback sat out the entire season preferring to in sure his knee's strength. He will be at full strength next year and Dunsmoor ex pects him to take off right where he left off at the tailend of last year's season when he was one of the Mounties lead ing ground gainers. Mark's older brother Joe was also plagued by injuries much of the season. An offensive full back and defensive linebacker, Joe saw only limited action this year but will be due to see much more next year after a year' seasoning. Two years away from football while attending a trade school and injuries hampered Joe's per formance this year, but I expect him to be a good one next year after the year's experience, complimented Dunsmoor. The Halvorsens are the sons of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Halvor sen of lone.
