Basketball, Unknown Dates. These twenty-one contact print strips were created for the Lacey Leader newspaper. These images were created using 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 men's basketball game between the teams from Timberline and Tumwater high schools. Image 16a shows two men in what appear to be the Lacey Leaders offices. They appear to be working on the layout for a spread in the newspaper. Images 17a through 38a show the basketball game underway. This game was played in the Timberline gymnasium.
The images in group "b" show a men's basketball game between the teams from Timberline and North Thurston high schools. Images 43b, 44b and 1b through 12b show the game underway. Images 13b and 14b show a group of cheerleaders or a dance team wearing plaid outfits performing a routine. Images 16b through 20b show the game underway. This game was played in the Timberline gymnasium.
The images in group "c" show a women's basketball game between the teams from Timberline High School and what is likely Chehalis High School (based on a banner visible in some of the images). The location of this game is unknown. All of these images (2c-25c) show the game underway.
The images in group "d" show a men's basketball between the teams from Timberline and Elma High Schools. Images 23d through 37d show the game underway. Image 38d shows a woman standing at a desk. The background of the image is a large window or open door looking onto a parking lot.
The images in group "e" show an unknown coach for the Saint Martin's men's basketball team talking to his team both in the locker room and at courtside. Images 10e through 15e show the coach speaking to the team as a group in the locker room. Images 16e, 17e 22e and 23e show the coach and team at courtside. The coach is crouching or kneeling on the ground and drawing or writing on a piece of paper or similar object to illustrate something to the team members.Made/Created
