I-IELENS ENJOYS SUCCESSFUL ATHLETIC YEAR FCOTBALL St. Helens High School has just experienced one of the most suc- cessful athletic years in the history of the school when the Lions won two major sport titles and took second in the other major sports ol' Columbia County. A powerful football team swept through the County League games undefeated to win their first championship. The Lions played nine games, winning seven, losing one, and tying one. This was particularly outstanding because of the very hard schedule the Lions had to face a11d because of the handicap of playing under a new coach. The only game the Lions lost was in Longview, Vlfashington State Champions, by the score of 25-0. The only other blot on their record was an 0-0 tie with Seaside. The piling up of 159 points by St. Helens to 51 by opponents was significant in itself of the high caliber of the St. Helens team. The team-Disdero, Kovaeh, Miller, ends, Stevens, Lusk, tackles, Garcia, Freeland, guards, Morten, center, McGrlinn, quarterback, Kor- pcla, Oliver, halfbacksg Kemnitz, fullback.

Only two of the games lost were conference games while two were outside games. One re- markable achievcment of the team was that no team facing St. Helens in a two-game serieslcould get more than an even break.
