John Herman Bill Bessey Jerry Osman Tom Knapp Mel Oishi WOLVERINES-33 DEMONS-0 The Wolverines of Evergreen opened the season with their first football win in the school's history. Evergreen racked up 33 points while the Demons from Tolt, last year's Lakeside Champs, didn't score at all. The game was played in 850 weather, but it didn't eFlect the Evergreen team. Coach Ray Smith substituted freely throughout the contest, giving each player the opportunity to show his talent. WOLVERINES-2 PIRATES-7 This game was an exciting contest throughout, with the Pirates from Vashon Island drawing first blood early in the first quarter. The Wolverines were plagued through- out the game by fumbles and penalties. Vince Dapas and Dan McKay tackled the Pirate quarterback in his end zone for a safety worth two points. Evergreen ran off more yard- age and more first downs than the Pirates, but fumbles and penalties were the deciding factor in the game. The Wolverines fumbled the ball away seven times during the game. Jerry Osman played his best defensive game of the season here. WOLVERINES-7 LIONS-31 Morale-wise this game marked a low in the season for the Wolverines. Lakeside dominated through most of the game until fourth quarter when Evergreen scored.
