ftjofitlnall of 748 Football practice for Sweet Home's Huskies started at 8 a.m. Sept. 1, 1948, and two prac- tices a day were held from the first until the 13th when school opened. The squad consisted of only about 30 play- ers on the lst, but by the 13th the number had almost doubled. Out of these there were only seven returning lettermen. They were Ken Noah, Leo Bennett, Don Rice, Wilbur Montgom- ery, Tex Stevenson, Gail Wilkening and Gordon Wright. - Sweet Home's first game was scheduled for Sept. 17. The Huskies started the season right by winning the first game of the season 13-O, on our home field. Don Rice scored all of Sweet Home's points on line plays. He spark- ed the team throughout the game with long ground gains and one pass interception. Sept. 28, Sweet Home's Huskies played their second home game, but this time the competition was much better. Cottage Grove took a 28-6 victory back home with them as they went. Sweet Home's only score came on a pass from Wilkening to Stevenson. October 1 found the Huskies playing their third straight home game, and at the same time found them trying to get back on the win- ning side. The Huskies did iust that by edging out Rainier's team 7-O. Leo Bennett made the Husky tally, and a pass from Norquist to Stev- enson added the extra point. On October 8, the Huskies took their first real trip to Taft where they managed to bundle Lp a 20-O victory on a muddy field. Norquist scored once on a quarterback sneak. Steven- son scored two more TD's on passes, one from Wilkening and one from Norquist. Theron Haley and Fred Smith added the other two points by tackling a Taft runner behind his own goal. On October 15, Sweet Home lost the game that they wanted most. lt was the game that decided who the league champions should be. Lebanon took the championship along with a 28-6 victory. All of Lebanon's scores came by way of hard hitting line plays. Sweet Home's lone touchdown was made on a pass from Wilkening to Stevenson in the opening minutes of the game. Sweet Home's other two points were made by Fred Smith and Theron Haley who broke through to tackle Lebanon's ball carrier behind the goal. The Huskies traveled to the coast on Oct. 22 to play Toledo on Newport's field. The Huskies tucked a 12-6 win under their belt Sweet Home's first six points were made by Noah around left end, and the final six came by way of a running-pass from Wilkening to Stevenson. On Oct. 29, the Huskies had to come from behind to win 13-7. The Huskies were trailing 7-6 at the end of the first half, but they came back and showed Newport they wouIdn't be beaten on their home field. Wilkening made both of Sweet Home's tallies and Don Rice add- ed the lone extra point on a line buck.
