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.

Come Saturday evening, Spen-

will cease to exist. 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

lributors will be contributing di-
rectly this year to a college schol-
arship for some Sielton high

Fred Beckwith of the Shelton Ki-
wanis Club.

boree, the Shelton Kiwanis Club

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.

fund, which share 100% of the
proceeds of tickets sold in Shelton.
