I 'XZ v 5 f Q ' 4l'er-,rj -' 5 ar T: IS' 1957 Foo ' LL EAS N ' ' This was neither the best season nor the worst season for the Indians. With a small squad dominated by sopho- mores, Coach Peterson and his assistant Coach Doe, work ed, perspired, and conspired to weld the boys into a team. A few injuries hurt the squad and changed the lineup during the season. Only five lettermen reported for prac- tice and they were joined by twenty-one non-letter winners, several of whom had one year's playing experience on the junior high team. With Cathlamet joining the Pacific league for the first time, new zest was added to the conference games. Six member schools now made the football league the largest that it had been in years. In a non-league game Valley came to South Bend to begin the 1947 football season. The Vikings played very sound football to win handily from the Indians by a score of 28-0. The flrst conference game of tho new season saw Naselle come to town. The green Warriors acted like bluebloods to dominate the Comets by a 20-6 score. The Indians played a return match at Menlo. the second league game. The Vikes did everything right and the Warriors could not get a scoring drive going to touchdown land. So, they took a 32-0 licking. The next league game was at Ilwaco, where the Fishermen ran and ran to run up a score of 39-6 before the game ended. Halfway through the season the Indians had won one and lost three, after a week's rest the Warriors of Peter- son battled the Ocosta Wildcats on the local field by the tune of 20-6. Cathlamet was the. next opponent to visit the Indians on their home grounds. The Mules and Warriors battled on even terms matching gain for gain, Long runs and passes made this a spectator's game to remember for many years. As the time ran out the Indians were on the Mules' fifteen yard line, as a result the Warriors lost by one try for point 20-21. The Mossyrock Vikings were the hosts for a non-league game with the Warriors. In this game the South Benders played their best game of the season. Vigorous blocks were made, tackling was sharp, and the plays ran smoothly. all together making a 33-6 victory for the Indians. The last game of the season was played on Veterans Day with Raymond as the visiting club. As in the past, the dope sheets and comparative scores can be thrown out the window when these two teams play and this year's game was no exception. For three quarters both teams battled in midfield during a heavy rain. They Ray- mond crashed through for a long touchdown run and a short time later scored another touchdown. This Ray- mond win was the first one in the past six years. ..65..
