Timberline vs. NT Football, 1977. These seven black and white contact print strips were created for the Lacey Leader newspaper. This series of images was created using at least two different film rolls, so some of the images' physical numbers are duplicated. For the purposes of this description, these contact print strips will be grouped according to which film roll they originally came from (or appear to have come from), and each group will be assigned a lower case letter to go along with their physical number (ex: 17a, 17b, etc.) to help in differentiation between images. The images in group "a" show a high school football game between the Timberline Blazers and the North Thurston Rams. Image 24a shows the the Timberline team running a running play. One of the referees is just to the left of the center of the image, crouching slightly and facing away from the camera. Image 25a shows a play ending in a tackle. The two jersey numbers visible at the far left are 44 for the Rams and 81 for the Blazers. Image 26a shows a player for the Blazers running downfield, toward the left of the image frame, with players from both teams and a referee running behind him. Image 27a shows a player for the Blazers either in or approaching the end zone. and several players trail him. A referee facing away from the camera is visible toward the left of the image. Image 28a shows player 36 for the Rams carrying the ball to the left in a running play. Number 77 is lead blocking for him. Image 29a shows the Rams running an offensive play. One of the Rams players is at the center of the image face down of the ground with his legs up over his head. Image 30a shows the Timberline team running an offensive play, and number 14 for the Blazers can be seen appearing to make a handoff. Image 31a shows number 14 for the Blazers running the ball. Image 32a shows most of the players for both teams jumbled up together on the field. The players nearest to center with visible jersey numbers are 77 and 89 from North Thurston. Image 33a again shows most of the players from each team jumbled together. A referee crouches at the left side of the image in profile. Images 34a through 38a are not present. Image 39a shows the Rams about to run a play. Number 89 for the Rams is the closest player to the camera. Image 40a shows number 36 for the Rams being pulled down by a Blazer grabbing his jersey. Images 39a and 40a overlap. Image 41a shows number 14 for the Rams (the quarterback) looking backward toward his running backs and preparing to make a handoff. Image 42a shows a player for North Thurston running the ball toward the line of scrimmage and number 14 for North Thurston looking on from behind. Image 43a shows a very blurred image of the Rams running a play. The images in group "b" also show a high school football game between the Timberline Blazers and the North Thurston Rams. This is likely the same game as that shown in group "a." Image 32b shows number 14 for the Blazers trying to cover up a fumble behind the line of scrimmage. Image 33b shows number 14 for the Blazers laterally pitching the ball to one of his running backs as number 37 attempts to block for the running back. Image 34b shows a fairly close up image of a player for the Rams attempting to tackle a player for the Blazers. The image is blurry. Image 35b shows a very blurred view of the teams preparing to run a play. Image 36b shows one player from each of the teams falling to the ground together as a player for the Blazers runs past. Image 37b shows a player for the Blazers running the ball very close to the line of scrimmage. The scoreboard is visible in the background, but it is too blurry to see clearly. Image 38b shows a player for the Blazers being tackled by a player for the Rams. One of the referees is close to the camera on the left side. Image 39b shows a blurry view of the Rams running a play. The players closest to the camera are number 74 for the Rams and number 63 for the Blazers. Image 40b shows the quarterback for the Blazers making a handoff to one of his running backs. Image 41b shows number 14 for the Blazers about to make a handoff to one of his running backs. Image 42b shows a jumble of players from both teams on the right, and a referee on the left. Image 43b shows the Timberline quarterback rolling out to his right for a pass. A North Thurston player is closely pursuing him. Image 44b is blank. Image 1b shows number 14 for the Rams running toward an open field while being pursued by a Blazer to his right. A referee is toward the players' left. Image 2b shows the two teams right at the beginngin of a play, but the print is too faded to make anything else out Image 3b shows the Rams running a play, but the contact print is too faded to make anything else out. Image 4b shows a player for the Rams, presumably with the ball, running to his right and away from the camera. Number 21 for the Blazers is at the center of the image and running away from the camera. Image 5b shows one of the referees very close to the camera and facing toward the left. A player for the Rams appears to be carrying the ball near the referee. Image 6b shows number 27 for Timberline very close to the camera while the gam continues behind him.Made/Created
