Football in this war year flourished and flowered into the real product. Hard charging by a fairly heavy line gave Arlington four vic- tories and two ties. Two defeats were marked up against them but these games were close and at least one of them was something of an upset. Sedro Woolley was doped to win but was given a hard battle. Edmonds was beaten up to the last minute when an unfortunate pass was intercepted by the Tigers. Two games were played in driving rain. Mt. Vernon was outplayed on a very wet field, and Marysville had to give in to unfriendly weather and a tough Eagle team. Anacortes was unlucky with passes. Lou Kel- ler intercepted two for touchdowns. Burlington escaped defeat with a skillful defensive game. The Monroe game was rather uneventful. Sno- homish played good ball under the lights. Many players graduate from this fine team, but several good boys are coming up to guar- antee fine Eagle teams for more years to come.

JSasketball Standing: David Cumbow, Eric Johnson, Albert Ronning, Coach Gunn, Ben Johnson, Jim Gunn, Jack lampley. Kneeling: Carroll Aberge, Ernest Boyer, Gerry Hawley, Bud Rayburn, Jack Allen, Clyde Reese, Wally Valen, Don Fingarson. Winning twenty-three and losing five, and add- ing a count} championship, the Eagles have just finished another good season. The county title is the third in a row. Arling- ton again staged a holiday tournament taking first place once more. Composed almost entirely of Seniors, the team this year had fair height and weight, and enough speed to bother any team in the state. All let- termen but Aberge and Ben Johnson graduate, but capable replacements in Hammer, Smith, Alskog, McClure, Cumbow, Wangsmo, and others are in line for first team posts next year. Fifteen games were played at home this year. All were won. Perhaps the best, and certainly the best attended, was with Snohomish. In terms of spirit and playing condition the team was quite satisfactory. Considering all aspects cf the game, the season was a success.
