SEASON'S RECORD FOOTBALL The first thing that Coach Golden did after he had arrived in Qakville and school had started was to line men up to play football. We expected a very good year but won only two games. In the first game of the season we tackled Ryderwood and were defeated 46-6. Two weeks later a very determined Acorn squad traveled to Napavine but lost 35-13. The Adna game was a nip and tuck affair with Adna pulling ahead in the last minute to win 14-13. Next Toutle Lake traveled to Oakville to give us a thorough trouncing 39-12. The following Friday afternoon the Acorns took a trip to Lebam and defeated them 36-30 for the first of the two games that we won during the season. Rainier was next in line in the second of the two games that we won during the season. The score was 52-12. BASKETBALL During basketball season ten players and two managers were eligible for the first team. VVe went to the jamboree in Tenino and played Rochester, defeating them 14-13 and Tenino, defeating them 13-10, which gave us the jamboree trophy. In our eight league games we won six and lost two games putting us in second place in the league. We also played ten practice games, but won only two of them. Our standing in the league gave us a chance to play in the tournament. There wc played Glenwood and lost the game 51-46. At the end of the season we placed four men on the all-star team. They were: Lewis Cox, Doug Bennett, Don Bennett and Fred Moe. There was a strong second team which will make a championship team again next year. BASEBALL ln March, 1951, 14 young men of O. H. S. turned out for the first baseball practice. After a few days of practice, Coach Golden decided to have some practice games to give the boys experience in competition play. These games were played against St. Martins and Elma. So far this season the baseball team has shown a great deal of ambition, sports- manship, and competitive spirit. A team that possesses these important factors will always have a lot of fun and learn a great deal from the sport.
