Special attention given to Silver and golden wedding anniversary invita- tions. for the Southwest Wastiington jamboree at Hoquiam on Septem- ber 12, Hillyard pushed his big squad through two three-hour workouts the firPt day and tossed the lads into their first scrimmage Tuesday afternoon. An increasing- ly intensive conditioning program is planned by the Highcltmber grid mentor all this week with no eas- ing up until probably about next Wednesday, he intimated after Tuesday's scrimmage, The returninglettermen around whom HiUyard is fashioning his pigskin plans include five backs and six linemen, leaving only one end position without an insignia winner candidate. Another stout line (the key which made last year's squad so potent} is in the making with the capable Ken Cardinal back at cen- ter flanked by Mel Newman, Dave Eager and Cec Crows, guards, with Crowe due to move to a tackle spot, tall Norm Buck at one tackle, and the husky Ker Carl- son at end. Wayne Gibler, letter- man end, is eligible but i not ex- pected to return to school as he was married during the summer. In the backfield, Bob Cleveland returns to handle the ball at quar- terback in Hiilyard's T-formation Offense to dish the leather out to Fullback Rice and Halfbacks Paul Koch, Clarence C0ttrell, and Gene Wells. Several fine prospects are com- ing up from the 1946 B team, with Glen Anderson. Emmett Smith, Dec Collier, Danny Davidson and Gene Sawye seeking backfield recognition; Herb Loop, Wayne C]ary and Bob Hutton cotending for the end post opposite Carlson; John Miller sure to get a lot of attention in Hillyard's taelde as- signments; Emmett Knight, Don Emery and Bill Valley contesting for guard positions; and Jimmy Skagen for center. A couple of youngsters from Ray Patrick's 196 junior high team may crash the varsity squad this year, too. Most likely in this cate- gory are Roy Levett and Bernie Heuer, backs, but before the final decision is made by Hillyard he will give •close scrutiny to the abil- ities of Blazer graduates such as Des Koch. Deb Getty and Clar- ence Woodard, backs: Don Cleve- land, Ginger Deer, and Warren Edgely, ends: Ted Dale, Chuck Pennington. Chuck Berets and Jim Hunter, tackles; Dick Endicott, Bob Strobe and Jack Mallinger, guards: and Ken Smith and Ed White, centers, ] Two transfers who may fit into Hillyard's 1947 scheme of opera-I tion are Jack Christensen, half- I back from Stadium of TaComa, senior; and Merle Lindgren, end from Cleveland of Seattle; d pho- more. After the jamboree a week from tomorrow evening, the Highclimb- ors sail into an eight*game sched- ule which keeps them busy with- out a break until Armistice Day, when they close their regular schedule with their only daylight encounter of the entire season, meeting St. Martins Preps on Loop Field. A ninth game as a post-season affair is very likely to be added to the schedule, Hill- yard said, as Mr. Vernon has made inqu lries about renewing the game between the two schools which had to be cancelled last November be- cause of the floods which stalled traffic in Western Washington. Tentatively, the pans call for Shel- ton to go to Mt. Vernon Novem.

Much like tlm POpulation of Hiroshima which was wiped out by one blast of an atomic bomb, the finny popula- tion of Lake Spencer is scheduled for quick exteination next Sat- urday when the State Game De- partment attacks it with rotes- one in the largest lake poisoning project yet attempted by the de- artment in its program of im- roving fishing in Washington lakes. Some 25 craft, manned by mem- bers of the Mason County Sports & Skeet Club and volunteers from the public generally, will tow sacks of rotonone through Lake Spencer it a pattern designed to completely saturate the water with the paralyzing chemical which removes all oxygen from the water and causes fish to suf- focate. The rotonone will be used in a five per cent solution with Alex MacRea, district biologist for the State Game Department, and oth- er game department representa- tives supervising the act ion, which is designed to remove all so-called scrap fish from the lake as wl as the weeds growing on the lake bottom. If the rotonone application is ef- ficiently done, every fish in Lake Spencer will be dead in a short period and in about two months, when the effects of the rotonone is completely dissipated, the lake will be ready for replanting with desireable game fish, the game de- partment points out. However, the first planting of new fisi in the lake probably will not take place until next spring, according to Mr. MacRea, when the new hatch is completed at game department hatcheries. Opposition to the poisoning" program ires been voiced by some of the property owners on Lake Spencer and a petition asking the game department to reconsider its plan for killing all the fish in the lake was circulated among the property owners, but no legal ac- tion has been taken to stop or delay the project. Shelion football fans who pur- chase tickets to the Southwest Washing'ton gridiron jamboree at Hoqniam September 12 from one of the three Shelten ticket dis- lributors will be contributing di- rectly this year to a college schol- arship for some Sielton high school gradnate, reports President Fred Beckwith of the Shelton Ki- wanis Club. As local sponsor of the jam- boree, the Shelton Kiwanis Club realizes a profit on all jamboree tickets sold in Shelton and with this money the Kiwanis Club this year is setting up a sctlolarship fllnd tO ,'lssist sonic deserving Simlton graduate gain a college education, President Beekwith ex- plained. , Throngh the efforts of the Shel- ton Kiwanis Club and Shelton school officials, twice the number of seats as last year have been re- served for Slmlton fans at the jaHtborce this year as the interest of Shelton fans in the gridiron sport is expected to be greatly iucreased this year. Tickets may be procured at Beckwith's Jewelry store, the L.M. sporting goods department, and the senior high school. Reserved sea, is are $1.25, general admission $1, with general admission in- creosing to $1.25 if purchased st tle gate. Tickets bought at the gait do not benefit either the Shelton Club scholarship fund nor the Shelton high school athletic fund, which share 100% of the proceeds of tickets sold in Shelton. Tickets should be bought in Shclton before next Wednesday as all unsold ducats have to be returned to Hoquiam on that date, Mr. Beckwith advised.
