I I I I I I I I au' and Flzeaeat FQOTBALI. Once upon a time, the young men of Sparta, a warlike province of Greece, started a game so they could cripple or kill, with a legitimate excuse, anyone they disliked. Cf course, this wasn't supposed to be the purpose of the sport, but that didn't seem to matter. Then the mighty Romans decided to try their hands Qaiid feetj at this ruff and tuff contest of physical supremacy. Some centuries later, the tenth to be exact, the British adopted this sort of play but soon a bedlam was created by Londoners and the game was banned. '-Iowever, years later, Englishers thought that by a slight revision in the rules to eliminate a few of the possibilities of manslaughter, the game could be reinstated in some of the boys' schools, which it was. In time the gold seeking nobles brought the sport over with them to the New World. Since 1607 football Qas it was namedj has undergone many changes, we will list only the main ones. In 1873, a conference of the leading United States colleges agreed upon a set group of rules, and intercollegiate games were carried on. More changes were made later and the game gradually developed into the one our Bulldogs have played since the early ninteen hundreds. We play football not so we can get even with our enemies, but, for the experience of exhibiting our sportsmanship and physical superiority in the game. This year under a capable and popular new coach, Herb Godfrey, the boys were determined to build a winning team for the dear old Alma Mater. However, it seemed after the first game with Cash- mere that the old Indian sign was put on us and the season ended with two wins, five losses, and one tie. The team really put up a good fight, when they played the traditional Armistice Day Cle Elum vs. Ellens- burg game. The Bulldogs can still give the Warriors a race because the score was 0-O at the end of the game. Although no championships were won, we loved the sport of it all. FOOTBALL SQUAD Top: G.
