Description

Football, 1973 & 1975. These nineteen black and white film negative strips were created for the Lacey Leader newspaper. These images appear to have been created with five separate film rolls, so some of the physical numbers on the strips are repeated. For the purposes of this description, these strips will be grouped according to the film roll from which they originally came. Each group will be assigned a lower-case letter to go along with the physical numbers on the strips (ex: 1a, 2a, 3a, 1b, 2b, 3b, etc.) to help differentiate between images. The images in group "a" show a Thurston County youth football practice. A man with a mustache wearing street clothes, presumably the coach, is physically participating in the practice. All of the children are in full football gear. The images in group "b" show cheerleaders posing for group photos and a football game underway. A note on the corresponding contact print strips reads "NT," suggesting that one of the teams is North Thurston High School, but this cannot be confirmed because the images are too blurry. One of the teams appears to have a "T" on the side of their helmets, which makes it likely that team is from Timberline High School. The images in group "c" show a football game between two unknown teams. A note on the corresponding contact print strips reads "NT," suggesting that one of the teams is North Thurston High School. However, neither team appears to have North Thurston's distinctive ram horn-shaped logo on the side of their helmets, suggesting that the note is in error. The images in group "d" show a football game between the team from Chinook Middle School and an unknown team. The images in group "e" show two different young men in football uniforms posing for photos, and a football game being played.
