SHELTON'S LEAD SHORT.LIVED
IN 38.7 LOSS AT BEARS HANDS
About tile only satisfaction the
Hlghclimbers gleaned from their
adieu performance to the 1949
football season last Friclay was
that they led tle' Olympia Beat's,
'Southwest Washington's gridiron
cimmpions, for one fllll quarter
and at the same time tin'ned in
one of their better exhibithms of
the year.
The final score was a top-
heavy 38 to 7 in favor of the
hosting Bears, wile struck through
the air anti on the ground to
overpower tile Smithmen with a
combination of football class and
tmlimited reserves.
IT COULD HAVE been consid-
erably closer with a break here
and there, such as the fumble on
Olympia's tour-yard line which
wiped out a Highclimbers touch-
down possibility immediately af-
ter the see.and half kickoff. Tim
Bears had booted to Silelton and
the wonderful Bob Phillips, who
was the best boy on tile field Fri-
day night, carried it from the I t
to tim Shelton 34.
Phillips bagged a pass from Bob
Eacrdtt for 26 yards, then ran an-
()that 31 to Olympia's nine for a
total of 80 yards in three plays.
Des Koch made four on tim next
lilly, then the Highclimher hack-
field timing got messed up and a
'ramble lost the ball.
AT Tile TIME the score was
26 to 7 for the Bears, and that
lost touchdown wouldn't have
made much difference except it
might have kept some of the Bear
regulars in the game longer.
But that 26-7 halftime margin
might have been a couple of
touchdowns closer with sharper
tackling by the Highclimbers, who
had Dean Rockey trapped twice
but let him get away for costly
gains. The first of these times he
got a pass away to Ivan Budd for
a. touchdown, the next time he
slipped out of tacklers' arms and
ran to the Shelton four when he
could find no uncovered receivers
on an intended pass play. A quar-
terback sneak on the next play
brouglt the score which gave the
Beat's their 26 to 7 halftime lead.
TIlE CLIMBER drew first
blood, scoring midway through the
first quarter after a succession of
fumbles which started on the op-
ening kickoff. TIke Hillman re-
covered Olympia's second fumble
of tle three in the series, giving
Shelton possession on the Bear
33. Phillips ripped off 29 yards
when tim Highclimbers sprang a
sm'prise on everybody with a sin-
gle-wing play and he went around
right end to the Bear five. Koch
picked up one, then Phillips blast-
ed through the line for the score
and Des banged the conversion
through the uprights.
IL took the Bears exactly three
plays, including the kickoff, to
get the touc.hdown back, but not
Lhe try-for-point. Koch's kickoff
was returned to the Bear 36 by
Mac Partlow, who then raced ar-
ound left end for 44 yards on the
next play to Shelton's 21. Only
a brilliant tackle by Jack David-
son kept him from going all the
way. Larry Malloy did go all the
way on tile next play, but Rusty
McClary missed the kick. and the
score stood at 7-6 for Shelton as
the quarter ended.
TIlE BEARS WENT in
to stay after recovering a fumble
on Shelton's 37 eprly in the sec-
ond quarter. Ierb Lindberg went
for 15, then for 22 for the score
after an unsuccessful pass.
The other two Bear touchdowns
at the first half have already been
accounted for. and another pair
were hung up in the second half
when Rockey passed 14 yards to
Lindberg m mid-third quarter and
when Gil Long ran eleven yards
before tim half-way-point in the

r last period. A 27-yard Rockey-to-
Long pass had preceeded the
touchdown by two plays and had
been instigated by Rockey's inter-
caption of a Silelton pass one play
prior to that. !
SHEI,TON'S occasional use of
single wing plays was not only a
big surI)rise but higifly successful
in the first half. The first three
times it was used Kocll went for
ten and Phillips for 29 and 23
yards. The Bears began stopping
it in the seconq imlf when the
virtually unlimited supply of
Olympia manpower had Worn tits
thin Highclimber roster down.
Although they were hopelessly
out-manned and out-cla:;sed, the
Highclimbers never quit trying
and actually played one of their
better games el; tile season, but
were up against, the best Olym-
pia team of the past dozen years.
A MENTIONED before, Phil-
lips never was better and stole
tim stow even from tim victorious
Bear players. His play on both
offense and defense was snperb.
Tike Hilhnan, Jimmy Leggett and
Jack Mallinger all played inspired
ball in tile Shelton line.
The defeat left Shelton with an
even slate for the year, four vic-
tories against four defeats. The
victory kept Olympia among the
lmdefeated ranks of the state.

IT'S OVER--IT'S BETTER
Football has stepped behind the
curtain in Shelton for another
year, this time with a far more
satisfactory adieu than 12 months
ago.
Where three Shelton gridiron
machines failed to hang up even a
single victory last year, this sea-
son they have compiled an even
dozen triumphs against nine de-
feats and one tie.
Ray Patrick's junior high
Blazers were the only local grid-
ders to compile a record with
more victories than defeats,
winning five of seven games and
tying for second place in the
tough S.tW.W. junior high con-
ference.
Red Smith's Htghclimbers broke
exactly even in eight games, but
had the edge in their Central
League games to tie for second
place, quite in contrast to 1948's
cellar-place finish.
Grant Packard's Little Climbers
(the B squad) likewise wound up
with a balanced ledger in, seven
games, having three triumphs,
three setbacks, one deadlock--and
developed an exceptionally high-
scoring attack for a reserve ag-
gregation.
Altogether, quite a satisfactory
season all-around.
year's Highelimber graduates.
They are Bob Wilhur, an end, Rog-
er Salisbury, a center, and Karl
Schwarck, Red Cox and Bob Ris-
tine, backs.
The last three, plus some im-
proving boys off the B squad like
Lee Chapman, Ned Miller, Chris
Loop and Alvia Chapman, may
Soften the tough blow which will
be the loss of Des Koch and Bob
Phillips.
One problem Smith won't have
to face next year is the tendency
this year's squad had of depend-
ing so heavily on Koch that
when he was out of the lineup
the club's dauber dragged.
This year's Sophomores ........ Jerry
McCord, Mere Wingard, Danny
Yarr, Murry Coleman--should be
ready to blossom into their full
bloom as regulars next year to
help this year's returning juniors
in rounding out what at this early
date seems to shape up as a reas-
onably solid squad.
This, with the coaching ability
Red Smith has demonstrated clear-
ly in his first season with the High-
climbers, seems to be enough to
warrant an optimistic outlook on
1950's football possibilities in Shel-
ton.
A TRUE SPORTSMAN

able improvement in the club's[ Ile's out on the streams when
blocking, and to a lesser extent its] stream fishing opens in the
tackling. Where there was vir-
tually no blocking at all last year
there was a pretty good grade this
year---not the best by any means
but a marked improvement over
tat year.
Next most important factor
was the tremendous Improve-
ment in the Individual play of
Bob Phillips, and to a slightly
less extent in Jack Davidson's,
in making Shelton's offense
function.
Nor can TiRe Hillman be left
out of the discussion. As a soph-
omore last year he played only a
very limited time but enough to
clearly show his potentialities.
This year he dtvelopcd, despite a
long succession of injuries, into
Shelton's top lineman by a wide
margin. If he can escape injury
and do proportionately as well
next year as a senior. Hillman
should be Shelton's best bet for
All-State honors.
Those are the factors--plus the
excellent coaching job performed
by Red Smith in his first year at
the Highclimbe helm--which this
scribe believes accounLu for the
up-turn in Shelton football for-
tune this season of 1949.

But tile point is. Matt Morgan
has no equal as a sportsman in
Mason County---for the Sidelin-
er's money--and his closest rival
probably would turn out to be
his twin brother, Mel.
The outlook for 1950 and 1951,
even 1952, is good, insofar as any-
one can look that much to the
future.
Smith will have problems next
year, such as replacing his tack-
les. His four varsity taokles all
graduate, and while only Jim-

simple task to start absolutely
