2007-012.I598N; 32 H.S. Basketball. 32 Negative strips containing 149 images of High School basketball games, team members, some pics of fans, etc. Obvious teams shown in the photos include the North Thurston Rams, the Timberline Trail Blazers (Blazers on their uniforms), Tumwater T-Birds, Olympia Bears, the "Rangers", and another unmarked team. The largest number of photos are of the Rams and Blazers.
There is a set of posed photos of players from several teams that show head shots or individual players making free throws and lay-ups. 17 of the photo prints in this subset are labeled "11-26-74 Blazers" on the back; 22 are labeled "11-26-74 Rams"; 17 are labeled "11-26-74" but are clearly of members of the Rams team, based on their team uniforms; 5 more are also labeled "11-26-74" and are similarly clearly of players on the Blazers team; and 15 are labeled "11-26-74 Tumwater" and show players with T-birds uniforms.
The remaining photos were taken at basketball games but there is no writing on the back of the prints except for one, which reads "AA tourney". From pictures of the scoreboards several of the games appear to be at the St. Martin's basketball court (possibly a tournament) but some are clearly at North Thurston HS. One of the banners at one of the North Thurston games indicates the year was 1977.
One board in the background shows the following names of Olympia HS varsity players: 12-Naccarato; 14-Kernan; 20-Dunsmore (sp?); 22-Briggs; 24-Gore; 30-Meredith; 32-Wick (sp?); 34-Emmons; 40-Matheson; 42-McCarty; and 44-Devoe.
