The Fort Lewis Engineers, under the leadership of Iohn Ehrsam, former Ohio State quarterback, defeated the hard fighting Trojans 39 to 6. The Engineers were rated as one of the top service teams of the country and completed an undefeated season. We are proud of the way our Trojans gave them about their stiffest competition all year. - On Thanksgiving Day, the Trojans were defeated in their final game of the season by the powerful Washington State Cougar Kittens. The Cougars, capitalizing on pass inter- ceptions, put on a hard-driving second half. On several occasions the die-hard Trojans marched deep into Cougar territory only to lose the ball. The strong second half drive of the Cougar-Kittens was responsible for the defeat of the local lads 20 to 0. Voting at the close of the season, the squad conferred the highest of honors upon Con Sampson, Everett's outstanding center. Con was selected by his team-mates to receive the inspirational award, as well as being elected their captain. His condition was doubtful at the start of the season because of a leg wound received at Leyte in the Philippines. Born in Everett, Con has a Well-remembered football record at Everett High School. Con's accomplishments this fall were well appreciated both by his team-mates and the fans. ' tlndividual Pictures? Top-Left to right: lim Iolgen, Milo Ienson, Dale English.

BASKETBALL 1946 - 47 A fast driving style of ball taught by Coach Bill McLaughlin gave Everett Iunior College the strongest basketball team that has ever been privileged to represent the school. In his first year of handling basketball, Bill proved that he definitely is a coach of high caliber. From an initial turnout of fifty former high school veterans and standouts, fifteen men were carried throughout the season. Since he worked his squad hard without let-up, they developed quickly and showed continued improvement. Perhaps this can best be attributed to the fact that the Trojans' early season's games were with the strongest of the Win.ko League members, as well as the always powerful University of Washington B Team. While absorbing defeats from these powerful quintets, the Trojans also amassed a great deal of valuable experience and knowledge. The Washington Iunior College Basketball League, consisting of Everett, Mt. Vernon, Bremerton, Centralia, Vancouver, Longview, Aberdeen, Wenatchee, and Yakima, presented some of the finest basketball ever enjoyed by local spectators. The support of the quintet increased throughout the season as the local fans became aware of this fact. Four top teams pretty well dominated the rest of the league in strength and ability. These were Clark I. C. of Vancouver, Everett I. C., Grays Harbor I. C. of Aberdeen, and Olympic of Bremerton. The Trojans split a series of two games with each of these schools. The Trojans registered their initial victory over the Arlington Vets by a score of 54 to 50. This was the first time the Trojans showed such power and promise and remarkably de- feated the Washington Vets Champs who had previously defeated them. The Trojans then continued victoriously by defeating Seattle Pacific College by a score of 66 to 50.
