Catholic — 12 Gervaia - 13 MELVIN JOHNNIE This year was far the best year K. S. has had since they started in eleven man football three years ago. The team has improved greatly, and this year closed with an undefeated season. However, in the opening game of the state play-offs, they lost a tight game to Gervais. The team will lose seven of its lettermen and six members of its first string. They are, TubbyHunt, Jon Westerholm, Harry Heil- mann, Max Kelly, Dick Oja, Melvin Lampi and substitute, Dave Meyer. LYMAN DARYL On September 14, the Loggers rolled over Garibaldi for the first time since starting 11 man football. Tubby Hunt ran for two touchdowns and passed for i third for a 19-6 win. On September 21, Tubby Hunt scored two touchdowns to lead the Loggers to vic¬ tory over Wheeler by a score of 28-7. Max Kelly and Dick Perkins also scored. The Loggers picked up their first score when Jon Westerholm tackled halfback Joe Chalmers in the end zone for two points. On September 2 8, the Loggers came from behind in the last half to edge Ne- halem 18-12. In the third quarter Hunt scored twice and then in the fourth with one minute to go. Hunt passed to Wester¬ holm for a touchdown. RICHIE On October 5, the Loggers swung to their fourth straight win when they defeat¬ ed Verboort 20-7. Jon Westerholm scored in the first quarter on a pass from Hunt. Just before the end of the first half Hunt scored again. The final tally came when Helwig scored from the 10 yard line. The Loggers swept to a 13-7 victory over Ilwaco in a non-league game to run their total to five straight wins. The Loggers literally cut down and swamped Gaston by a score of 44-6. They scored the first time BILL DICK JIM they got their hands on the ball, on a 42 yard toss from Perkins to Westerholm. The half time score was 33-0. The first string came in for three minutes in the second half and scored twice more. The second string took over there and held them scoreless for the rest of the game. The Loggers went on to their 7th str¬ aight victory of the season by defeating Bay City 20-6. Tubby Hunt and Bill Hel- wig scored two touchdowns each. The spectacular and longest run of the year came when Helwig carried the ball around the right end for 70 yards and a touchdown. CORKY HOWDY The Loggers, led by Tubby Hunt, and Bill Helwig, clinched the Tidewater Lea¬ gue Championship by defeating Nestucca 32-12. Hunt tallied three times and Hel¬ wig twice, to give the Loggers their eighth win. The Loggers, finish ed their regular season with a win of 44-12 over the Till¬ amook Catholic Vikings. The Loggers got their first loss of the season from Gervais in the first game of the state play-offs. They were defeated by a score of 13-7. They couldn't get roll¬ ing and were fooled twice by trick plays, leading to touchdowns on the part of Ger¬ vais. The Gervais team, however, out weighed Knappa 20 pounds to the man. DON One way to get ahead and stay ahead is to use a head. Never speak sense when nonsense will answer the purpose as well. I can live without poetry or walking; but who in the world can live without talking? He who sitteth upon tack--Yea! he shall rise. Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Oja? After four years of faithful service I'm laid off. A bashful boy of F. F. A. He will be a farmer some day. I'm going to tell that Einstein a few things. Minds are like horses; one must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order. Work fascinates me; I can sit and look at it for hours. Try to argue if you can I can beat most any man.

The basketball team ended a dynamic season by taking second place in the state tournament after winning the district and county titles . Their record for the season, including non-league and tournament games was 22 won and 7 lost. During the regular season and in the county and district playoffs, Knappa had one rival team on their tail all the time, Westport. No one was ever sure what the outcome of the games would be until they were over. The first time K. S. played Westport, Westport won. This made necessary a playoff game at the Armory to decide who was to be the A team for the district playoffs. Knappa won the game by a score of to , but it was only when the whistle blew that we knew we had won. In the district playoffs, K. S. won their first game from Nestucca. On the next night of the playoffs K. S. defeated Westport. Westport played Sat¬ urday afternoon and defeated Garibaldi by one point in an overtime period. That night Westport def eated K. S. 44-45 in an overtime period, after an ex¬ citing and close game. This made necessary a playoff game at the Armory with Westport the following Tuesday night. On the night of the game, the Armory was packed, with standing room only. In a hard-fought ball game, in which the score was tied ten times, K. S. in the last 2 or 3 seconds, by a shot by Kelly, from about 25 feet out, defeated Westport 42-44. In the state tournament, Knappa defeated Culver, 62-73 to set a new state tournament scoring record. Friday night they defeated Sublimity by a score of 49-40. In the final game K S. in which Rogue River had a narrow lead at all times, except for a brief time when K. S. led, 13-12. In the last minutes K. S. couldn't find the basket at all, giving Rogue River their 11 point final lead. First row: Kathryn Akerstedt, Louise Olsen, Miss Srenco, Charlotte Van- derveldt, Charmone Smith, Mary Baldwin, Irene Acton. Second row: Gladys Goska, Helen Perkins, Donna Ridge, Janice Vlastelicia, Martha Smith. Third row: Shirley Mark, Eileen Barendse, Yvonne Angberg, Ruth Lahti, and Shir¬ ley Leino. Differing from the previous years, the high school had both a first and a second team this year. There were many qualified girls to fill the positions offered by only one volleyball team. Both teams traveled away from home to participate in inter-scholastic competition. Games were held at Warrenton, Westport, and Jewell. The return games were played on the Knaopa floor. It is impossible to print the scores here as no records were kept of the games. However, it proved to be an average season for the Knappa Volleyball Team. First row: Richie Perkins, Doug Nelson, Gordon Minkoff, Dave Meyer, John Tomberg, Jim Combs, Mike Barendse. Second row: Jim Ihrig, Walt Palmrose, Jon Westerholm, Max Kelly, Jim Puckett, Tubby Hunt, and Bud Heilmann. The baseball season got off to a slow start with frequent rains keeping the field very wet. During the season, Knappa won 3 games out of 8, giv¬ ing them about a 400 PCT. However, two of the games were not league games. Knappa finished in third place for the season. The returning lettermen were: Jim Combs, John Tomberg, Michal Barendse, Dave Meyer, John Vlastelicia, Jon Westerholm, Richie Perkins, Max Kelly, Tubby Hunt, Jim Puckett, Gordon Minkoff, and Phil Meyer, (manager).

We regret that at the time the pictures were taken the team had not been selected. Due to an excess of skilled players on the Knappa lineup, it was im¬ possible to choose a regular nine girl lineup. The Knappa High School Girl s' Softball Team has been undefeated for four years. School spirit and team sportsmanship have attributed to the glory of the team. The first game of the season was played at Jewell on April 4th. The teams had little practice, but we came out with a decisive 25-12 victory. Knappa found the competition keener when they played Westport on Ap¬ ril 22. The final score of 7-5 favored Knappa. On April 25, the Knappa girls had a frenzied bit of hitting to bring the closing score of 30-5 in Knappa's favor. This was a game that will long be remembered by the teams because the Knappa team displayed some of the hardest hitting of the season. Three home runs were made in this game. The 16-7 victory over Westport was the highlight of the season, as it brought to the Knappa Softball Team an undefeated season of hard ball play¬ ing. CobJG i r s ?

After the program, the new members were treated to a movie. In October the Loggerettes gave a Halloween party. The girls took the boys and paid their way. Other events of the seasonwere the Christmas Formal, with the theme of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and the banquet given in honor of the lettermen. The club organized the sale of popcorn to be sold at the home basket¬ ball games. Later in the season a pie sale was held in the front hall. The profits from these sales were used in financing the lettermen's banquet given in the spring.

Annual Staff Knappa High School Day of Publication Hi Kids, Just a line to let you know we're as glad as you are that the Knappa Year¬ book is finally here. As you know we had quite a time getting pictures taken because of bad weather. However, the main thing that slowed us up was the fact that the assignments weren't turned in. Anyway now that the annual is here let us show you some of the new addi¬ tions made this year. The presidents' page is to give the leaders of our ac¬ tivities a little additional recognition. Our various teams worked hard winn¬ ing the honors they received, one of them being beautiful trophies. We are proud to have these shown in this annual. Another new feature is individual pictures of the footb'1l' lettermen. Well, you can take it f) m there. We leave you with the pleasant memories of the past school year.

So many students maintained this average that in order to give everyone a chance to write, assignments were given and students took turns. Extra credit was given in English for these assignments. It is the duty of the editor to publish all the papers and we the students of Knappa High School would like to compliment our editor, Bever ly White - side, on her fine work this past year.

This year the High School Band has carried out a great deal of school activities to support the football and basketball teams and also to entertain the community. Without the help of the band director, Mr. Lockhoven, the progress made by the band would have been difficult. At the beginning of the school year the band got off to a good start by play¬ ing at some of the home football games. They went to Hillsboro to support the football team against Gersais. The Band also journeyed to the District Basketball Tournament at Tillamook and to the State Playoff in Salem. The band participated in the Christmas Program, Spring Concert, Com¬ munity Chorus Concert, and the High School Graduation. Four new instruments were acquired this year and they are hoping to get more. The new instruments were a sausaphone, french horn, and two new flutes. With the help of the Community Chorus, the band fund is about $ 750 for the purpose of buying uniforms, which they hope to get next year.
