TRACK Before the 1932 season there was such small interest in track that our teams were unable to compete on an equal basis with the representatives of the neighboring schools. About twelve men turned out and we were able to enter a man in most events. The team participated in only one meet — the Tri-County at Shelby. Before the meet Shelby was the favorite but Cut Bank upset the dope by placing in every event except the mile relay. Three new records were hung up by C. B. men and Cut Bank became a strong contender for track and field honors. Sel-don Frisbee held the honor of being the outstanding trackman of 1932 by placing first in the discus and high jump and second in the javelin. The following men won letters: S. Frisbee, B. Whitehead, E. Poore, S. Wagner, V. Haglund, L. Frisbee, E. Simpson and M. Magee. Cut Bank ..................... 47 Shelby ....................... 40 Valier ....................... 30 Conrad ....................... 16 Oilmont ....................... 7 The Wolves entered the season of 1933 with determination to retain the championship won the previous year at Shelby. For the first time it was possible for Cut Bank to enter in more than one meet. The boys drove to Havre and entered the Hi-Line meet there in May. The team made a very creditable showing by placing second. The Tri-County Meet was held a week later at the local field. The Wolves were handicapped by the lack of men because each member of the team was forced to enter in two or three events. However, the team had a score of 73 to Shelby’s 52 while Oilmont trailed with 13. This meet was perhaps the most successful as yet held. The weather was ideal and consequently a number of records were broken. The Wolves had an outstanding 880 relay team this year. They not only won first in the Havre meet but also set a record of one minute and 40.6 seconds in the Tri-County meet. The members of this team were: Vasboe, Haglund, Magee, L. Frisbee, C. Walberger, B. Oliver, and C. Aubrey. Eugene Poore, track captain for 33 finished his athletic career in high school by winning four firsts and a second. He won first in the 220 yard dash and second in the 100 yard dash in the Havre meet and three firsts in the 50, 100, 220 yard dashes in the Tri-County meet. A large number turned out for track this year and a number of meets are planned for those who can fulfill the qualifications. The proposed meets are the Tri-County at Oilmont, the Havre or Great Falls meet, and the state meet at Missoula. A large number of track letter men are back again and hopes are high for a third consecutive championship team. The returning letter men are M. Vasboe, W. Poore, M. Magee, L. Frisbee, C. Walberger, B. Oliver, and C. Aubrey. —24—

FOOTBALL finals, Stanford could not stop the speedy Cut Bank men and were defeated 34 to 0. Cut Bank lost to Libby in the state semifinals at Whitefish in a sea of mud. This was the Wolves first appearance in the mud, while Libby had played in it all year. The speed and deception of the C. B. eleven was useless in the mud and they were unable to stop the heavy Libby backs. Johnston and Poore in the backfield, and Magee and Jones in the line were the outstanding players of the season, all were chosen on the all-tri-angular-conference team. The football team of ’32 was successful because the all-for-one and one-for-all spirit was highly developed. Their grit and determination when winning or losing moulded them into such a smooth functioning unit that they overcame their greatest handicap—lack of weight—and swept opposition aside. The letter men of the 1932 season were L. Frisbee, M. Magee, R. Jones, O. Schuette, V. Haglund, C. Brown, W. Brown, E. Poore, E. Simpson, M. Vasboe, H. Johnston, W. Poore, B. Oliver,, R. Peterson and J. Miller. C.B.

Bad weaiher caused postponements and delays which were very disheartening. However, in judging from the number of games won and lost the results are not so depressing. The Wolves got a good start by defeating Oil-mont. The second game was played at Whitefish. The team gained valuable experience in football strategy at the expense of a defeat. The next contest was at Valier. The Cut Bank eleven did not work smoothly in the game but managed to complete several forwards—to win by four touchdowns. A feature of this game was a 60 yard return of a punt for a touchdown, by L. Ray. On the next Saturday, the Wolves played on the local field against Havre’s B team. Neither team seemed to have the edge the first half, with the result that no goals were made. In the opening minutes of the second half, Havre blocked a C. B. punt which resulted in a touchdown. As the game proceeded in to the final quarter, the Wolves rallied and put over two tallies. The first was made by a forward pass and the second by straight plays. Conrad was scheduled next but adverse weather conditions caused it to be postponed. Shelby was played on the local field this year. This game proved to be the most heartbreaking game of the season. The boys had not been able to play any games for three weeks and were not in the best of physical condition. The result was that a number were hurt and taken from the game. Shelby managed to make a lone touchdown and held the Wolves scoreless. The Wolves used the speedy, deceptive style of play again this year. The backs were small so deception and a passing attack was necessary. The line could be depended upon to open holes when line bucks were necessary but they were at their best when it came to holding the opposition from making yardage. Since Mr. Taylor first came to Cut Bank in the fall of 1930 he has been very successful in turning out good teams. The first year he worked with no equipment (except a football) and taught the boys the rudiments of the game. The team won two games and lost three. The next year, with new football equipment, Cut Bank made an excellent showing. They were defeated by one touchdown margins by Valier and Shelby in this district. In 1932, after only one year of real football experience, the Wolves defeated every contender in the Northern •District and became champions. The 1933 team also showed its mettle against the strong Whitefish team and in Valier, Havre, and Shelby games. Cut Bank has a right to be proud of its football teams. Whether the Wolves are winning or losing they keep on fighting until the last whistle blows. Whether the Wolves win or not, football will always be successful at Cut Bank because the fellows turn out for a chance to play a clean and sportsman-like game. The following won letters for 1933: M. Magee, C. Walburger, R. Jones, O. Schuette, M. Tenney, R. Peterson, C. Hagan, C. Aubrey, J. Miller, R. Reagan, E. Simpson, M. Vasboe, L. Ray, W. Poore. B. Oliver and M. Williamson. C.B.
