JOE HALVORSEN
lone's Halvorsens
Perform for OCE
Despite Injuries
Brother teams are not too
common In college football
ranks, but Eastern Oregon Col
lege had one this year in Joe
and Mark Halvorsen of lone.
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.

Coach Dockter had praise for
Keith Nelson's defensive work
in the game.
"Overall we still have a lot
of work to do, both on defense
and mainly offense," the coach
said. "We're missing our screens
and failing to make the good
pass to the open men. But con

eight practices I think the boys
did as good as could be expect
