By CHARLES GAY North Thurston overcame a 7-0 halftime deficit by scoring 27 points in the second half and beat the Shelton Highclimbers 27-13 in Lacey Friday night. The Climbers kept the Rams in the hole all of the first half, helped by senior Larry Olli's punting. Pill's boots rolled inside North Thurston's 20 yard line several times, and once a punt went till the way to the one yard line. Defense and punting. colnbined with a touchdown pass from Terry Knight to Rocky Nutt, gave Shelton a 7-0 lead at the half. Thurston's offense, which proved potent in the end, could not get going early in the game, but exploded for four touchdowns in the second half. J. D. Fouts, the Rams' quarterbackI faked and passed his team to the victory. The (;limbers received the opening kickoff. The Rams' defense held for a one yard loss on the first two downs, then A1 McGee ripped through the middle for 16 yards and a first down on the midfield stripe. From there, Shelton's attack stalled and Pill punted to Thurston's 17. The Rains lost seven on third down, and punted out to their own 42. Neal White recovered Tracy Armstrong's fumble on the catch. Again the Climbers could not inove the ball, and Olli placed the ball on North Thurston's one. The Rams got out of the hole with one first down, but they were forced to punt, and Shelton got its first big break. A penalty was levied against the Rams for a personal foul, and the punt that followed got only to North Thurston's 29. Don Neth, junior fullback, carried on first down with a six yard pickup. One play later, the quarter ended, and the score was still 0-0. On second down, Neal White, Shelton's junior quarterback, recovered a fumble on the 18 yard line and was injured in the pile that resulted. Sophomore Terry Knight replaced White, and on his first down of the ballgame, tossed a touchdown Io senior end Rocky Nutt in the end z()ne. AI Mc(;ee's successful PAT made it 7-0 in favor of the Climbers. When ]hurston got the ball, they made a first down by pass intcrference, but then Terry Knight, playing in the defensive backfield, picked up a fumble on his own 44 and the ball was Shelton's again. When the ('limbers could not move the ball, Pill turned the trick again and punted to the Rams' six yard line. Thurston proceeded to rip off gains of l2, 13, and 12 yards before Brad Piing, a sophomore defensive lineman, recovered a fulnble on Thurston's 49 to give Shelton the ball. 1'he Rams' defense held again, but Olli's golden toe landed the ball on the nine yard line. The hall' ended before North l"hurston could get their drive past their own 35. The (?limbers, who had come into the game slight underdogs, were leading 7-0. The second half was almost the exact opposite of the first. North Thurston dominated. They scored the first time they got the ball. Coach Jack Stark of Shetton said that perhaps the turning point in the game was when the Climbers failed to stop the Rams in that first touchdown drive despite a third-and-23 situation. Thurston started on their own 23 following the second half kickoff, and Fouts guided them Iownfield with his pinpoint .assing. Forty-eight of the 77 yards on the drive were conquered by air. Thurston led 8-7 following a two-point conversion. The Rams got a break on the next Climber possession when AI McGee fumbled and the hosts recovered. In seven plays, Thurston had scored from the Climbers' 47. A 15 yard penalty had helped. The extra point try was no good, using the same halfback pass play that had worked before, and the Rams led 14-7. Shelton came back later. They had to punt to the Rams, but Thurston fumbled three plays later. Shelton recovered and started on a touchdown drive. Don Neth had to make a first down on fourth down to keep the drive alive, then a penalty moved the ball to the Rams' 20. Needing three yards on fourth down again, White called Neth's number again. Neth responded with four yards and a first down. On the next play, White rolled to his right, cut back, and ran through several Ram defenders into the endzone for a touchdown. Down 14-13, the Climbers went for the lead and a two-point conversion. It failed. The Rams scored in six plays when the Climbers kicked off. Shelton then pun got the ball again.
