WENATCHEE BOYS
CLAIM VICTORY
RED APPLE BOYS SHOW BY COM
PARATIVE SCORES HOW THEY
WON CHAMPIONSHIP HONORS
DURING THE SEASN.

The claim of Ellensburg high
school to the championship Of the
gridiron for Central Washington
doesn't look very good to the Local
high school team even though the
two teams were unable to meet this
year. Figuring from comparative
scores, the claim Of the Ellensburg
eleven doesn't down.
About the only way it can be set
tied this year, unless a post season
game is played, is by looking at the
comparative scores which show up
as follows:
Spokane and North Yakima played
$50 game in the formers favor.
North Yakima and Ellensburg played
two games, the first resulting in a
score of 60 in favor of Ellensburg,
and the second. 60 in favor of North
Yakima. Lincoln High beat Spokane
by score of lie, and she beat a
crippled Wenatchee team $50. Had
the same team that Wenatchee has
at present played Lincoln. the score
probably would not have been more
than one touchdown.
While the only true way to settle
the claim is by the two teams meet
ing, there can be no doubt that COM
parative scores give Wenatchee High
the palm.
Wenatchee was pretty sore on ac-
count of the default of the Broadway
aggregation as they expected to give
Broadway tussle to be remembered.
Broadway beat Ballard, but the lat
ter scored two tOuchdOWns, while
Wenatchee took Ballard into camp
by score Of 100. The Ballard
coach stated that his team was 40
per cent stronger than when it met
Broadway, and before the game he
was so confident of winning that odds
of to l were being laid by the Bal
lard boys.
The locals play Everett on Thanks
giving Day at Everett and hard
game is expected. 1t was hoped that
Everett could be induced to come
over to Wenatchee last Saturday, the
date that Broadway threw Wenat
chez down to play Lincoln, but Ever
EFT would not change it's date.
Regarding the prospects of the
Everett-Wenatchee game the Everett
Tribune says:
Football fans of the city who
have been giving vent to criticism of
Coach Sweetland because he, as they
claim, has not arranged games with
teams of sufficient class to try out
Everett highs real mettle will see
something to please them when We
natchee comes on the gridiron
Thanksgiving day. The east of the
mountain lads, from all true form
DOPE, are the equal of any Seattle
high team. or of Spokane or Tacoma.
Nothing that they have this season
met has disturbed them to any ex-
tent, and they are as eager as young
Sioux braves for more easy scalps at
their collective belt. Everett, as
they frankly admit, looks like one
more to them. Hills, their fullback,
is an old Seattle player and wonder.
Their ends and tackles are men fit
for any sort of high school class, &C
cording to report. Their average
weight is greater per man than ,Ev-
srett's.
''They are certainly to be reckOned
with by all available reports at hand
from which to Judge. They should
prove to be far and away Everett's
best opponent for the season. The
locals have little to choose between
this coming Wenatchee bunch and
the near-champion, cOld-footers
eleven of one Lincoln high, Seattle. |
Without doubt Thanksgiving's game
will be the one best fight on this
years local grid A record crowd is |
sure for it.
The following is the lineup for to-
