Girls Place 2nd In Distric! After 9-I Season Having earned their eighth consecutive win by edging past McMinnville, the Girls' Swim Team lost to Oregon City by a 74-39 count, and thus lost their bid for the TYV Championship. Posting a fine 9-1 mark, the team was led throughout the season by top point-gaining efforts from Kris Nielson, Kris Knox, Kathy Luhr, Jan Hellwarth, Karen Core, and Jane Eisenbeis. The team showed balance in the large number of strong swimmers in different events. By placing second in the district competi- tion, the team was able to send seven people to the State Meet: Judy Judd, Kris Nielson, Kris Knox, and the freestyle relay team. Judd placed ninth in the diving competition, and Knox earned tenth in the freestyle event. Coach Ruckdeschel places his future hopes in the many sophomore and junior mem- bers of the team, another large turnout at the start of the season, and the better practice facilities ofthe newly authorized pool for the Lake Oswego District.

Experience Gained For IV Gridders By Six Wins Opening with a tough, one-touchdown loss to Oregon City, the Laker JV Football Team bounced back for six victories in a row. The opening loss was caused in part by the fact that starters Tom Groves and Bill Rhoeds were' unable to play. The victory over Newberg was a tough battle as the Lakers were forced to come from behind twice to gain the win. In a tight defensive battle, St. Helens was edged by a 7-2 score. But the final game at Dallas proved too difficult as they dropped a 14-0 decision, the only game in which they failed to score. Coach John Lortz credited the success of the team to the great efforts given by all of its members. Some JV players were called up to the Varsity late in the season, partially accounting for the final loss. This yearis success should produce players for the Var- sity that can fill the holes left by the large number of graduating seniors.
