The game which showed much im- provement in the Bobcats was the game with the highly favored Enumclaw team, the last game of the season. Both sides scored heavily, and the final score was Enumclaw 21 and Sumner 20. Marston Vittetoe was this years' recipient of the Football Inspirational Award, and Raul Fon- da received the Honorary Captaincy. As far as the basketball season went, Sumner won only three games out of a full season of nine starts. They lost to Clover Park twice, Enumclaw three times, and split a win and a loss with Franklin Pierce. This would, on the surface, look poor. However, the remaining two wins were over our neighbors, Puyallup, thus avenging the football defeat and getting at least a taste of glory.

As the football season progressed, the junior high team showed much improvement even though the games they lost were toward the s'c's-'fiule's end. The opening game ended in a Thirty-iwo tie with Bethel. Next came a win over Federal Way. With the easier portion of the season be- hind them, the Bobcats met the larger, stronger teams. In meetings with both Clover Park and Franklin Pierce, Sumner lost by quite large mar- gins. As usual, the seasonys high point came when Sumner played their rival, Puyallup, in a night game there. In front of a large crowd a hard fought game was played, but when the gun sounded the score-board read Puyallup 6 and Junior High Basketball-llzu-lc row, loft io right: i'il'ZLlliC Lilies, David SilUl'lIHLiU'7', .loim lflilvrs. ifronl row: M :L 1' s I o n Viitetoo, Mir-lu-y Micklvsoli, .lar-k P1-lerson.
