Bulldogs Ready for Jamboree Friday;
Meet Emmett Here 18th for 1st G am e
Tagged as the underdog, Nyssa
high school’s Bulldogs will enter the
15th annual Snake River Valley
football jamboree Friday night as
the only team in the seven-member
class A conference to play two quart­
ers.
Coach Howard Lovejoy, although
charry of favorable predictions for
his team this year, is willing to
wager on one thing. And that is
the reasonable certainty that the
Bulldogs will draw Vale as oppon­
ent in one of its 10-minute quart­
ers.
“ And why shouldn't I expect that,"
the coach countered. "In recent
years we've drawn Vale in at lea»t
six out of seven draws—so we sort
o' take it for granted "
Game time for the jamboree,
which is to be held again thi» year
at Ontario, is set for 8 p.m. Team
captains will draw for opponent ju.'t
prior to the kick-off for the first
of four 10-minute quarters.
Class A conference teams com­
peting include Nys.-a, Vale, Ontario.
Emmett, Payette, Meridian and
Weiser.
Coach Lovejoy offered to play his
Bulldogs in the extra quarter in
order to give his green players a
little more experience before meet­
ing Einmett on the Nyssa field in
a night game Sept. 18 to open the
conference schedule.
A Bulldog team is being shaped
round five lettermen including two
backfield men, two linesmen and
one converted backfield man.
Junius Tanner, as the most ex­
perienced o f the lettermen, is slated
to call the plays from a halfback
position. Rodney Holcomb seems
certain to nail down the other half­
back spot, with Teddy Keck shifting
from center to fullback. To com­
plete the backfield, John Siaminer
seems to have an inside chance at
the quarterback slot, according to
Lovejoy.
The other two lettermen are Bob
Turner, guard-tackle, and Dave
Hartley, tackle.
