Only one lived up to advanced expectations, chiefly because not a great deal was ex- pected from a wrestling squad which of- fered little. In this respect, at least, the matmen ac- tually out-performed their football and bas- ketball peers, from whom much more was promised than was produced. Two Climber grapplers fought their way to state, where wiry, spunky Mary Wilson battled a rocky route to third place in his weight division. Dallas Gunter went through the regular season undefeated, not meeting his match until he hit district, Wilson's feat set a towering plateau for Climber athletes of the four spring sports to scale if they'd match him. So, comes the natural question, what are the chances? Potentially, and optimistically, they're favorable. State honors are available in baseball, track, golf and tennis to those with the ability and good fortune to attain the pinnacles of athletic achievement neces- sary for scaling the cliffs. Theoretically, it could occur in all four, although practic- ally it's impractical to expect so much. Nonetheless, Shelton high school is rather richly endowed with spring sport talent. Historically, it's an unusual year, for example, when the Climbers do not qualify at least one athlete, if not several, for the state track meet at Pullman. Coach Bill Brickert expects to kick up quite a fuss in the Olympic League this spring with a solid nucleus of returning lettermen and a promising influx of sophomore Blazer grad- uates. He'll trot most of it out for initial public display today and tomorrow in the annual inter-class meet. His chances of chap:roning a Climber contingent to Pull- man have to be rated hopefully high. The road to state honors in baseball is considerably steeper, but with a letterman- loaded, solidly-senior squad, Coach Bernie Dorcy potentially has candidates for the all-state squad in the annual State vs. City prep diamond doubleheader in Seattle next summ.r. His Highclimbers should put up a stout struggle with South and Central Kitsap for the Olympic League tit!e,  Tennis coach Dick Morton has'tbun - dant letterman material to make the Climb- era an Olympic title threat with a team "better than last year". He figures Shel- ton's best bet for statedevel competition will be in the doubles because the two Brem- erton schools own the top singles talent. Which leaves golf  and very possibly the brightest hope of all to bring home state honors to Climberville. Coach Andy Tuson tutors talent this spring which ap- pears to be the best in the school's modern golf history. It will take a powerful squad to muscle the Climbers off the Olympic links throne, and of course there might be such a rival in the conference, but the Climbers should make a highly audible months, one that might even be heard right into the state tournament. This all sounds sweet and soothing, something like the pre-season football and basketball noises sports fans heard, only to wind up as sour notes. Th igredients seem to meet quality standa:ds. Let's hope there's no curdling during the cooking. SPORTS SPLINTERS  Former Climb- cr athlete and ex-serviceman Jim Richards starts buck to school at the end of this month at Olympic Community College in Brcmerton, where he expects to play foot- ):all next fall for the Rangers, perhaps gra- vitating from there to the U.W. Huskies or some other major athletic power if he add c:vough weight to his current 205 pounds to attract an athletic grant. While the community colleges don't have formal official spring practice their grid athletes do get in some pretty good licks in so-called P.E. classes instructed by members of the fcat-all coaching staff. Jim will l:e joined at Olympic next fall 1)', younger brother Bill, also a two-sport Climber letter winner except his pair in- cluded football and track. Jim's second sr.ort vta baseball, and a good one it was, too. Bill, lacking his brothers heft, isn't figuring to play football. He aims for a caree in commercial art. Since doffing his military uniform, Jim has been playing city league basketball with Jess' Mobil Service (which knocked Verle's Sporting Goods out of the ham- pionship last week and was the only team t defeat the teachers on the maple court this season), quite a bit of golf, and has taken a fancy to mountaineering. At this year's initial strategy-mapping meeting last week, the Olympic Connie Mack League (in which Shelton's Junior Legion team has played for several years) accepted Part Angeles as a new member of the circuit for 1969 and hopes for a pos- sible entry from Port Townsend as well. Both the Ports have lighted fields for night games, as does Bremerton, enhancing greatly the attractiveness of the league to its young players from North, South and Central Kitsap and Shelton. This might wind up as 4ellent 8-team league for the coming pit:high school season. Jerry Mallory, by the way, will not return as Shelton Jay-ell coach this summer after three years at the helm. Arrival of a baby daughter in his family and his already am- bitious activity schedule made the extra responsibility of coaching just one thing too much. Incidentally, John Newsom, the PA rep- resentative at the meeting, remarked that passage recently of the special school levy at Port Angeles assures return of a full inter-cchool sports program for the Rough- riders next school year. Port Angeles drop- ped all inter-school athletics during the 1968-69 term, reducing the Olympic Leaguq to seven members. e;----;----;-------- Bring the Family Bowhng Results. and Enjoy GRANGE Men's Hi Game: Joe Simpson and Dutch Stanley 201 Men's Hi Series: Joe Simpson 553 Wmnen's Hi Game: Joyce Olson 169 Women's Hi Series: Lois Simp- son 472 Standings : Southside 33-7, Agate 26-14, Harstine 21-19, Skoko- mish 18-22, Shelton Valley 11-29, Pomona 11-29.
