He has taken 415 pounds to a squatting position, and back to a full stand, and thats quite a feat for a high school prep. Doug isnt sure what his limits in the exercise are, but thinks he could do it with 450 pounds. Douglas Donald Fosmark was born on February 15, 1961 in' Bell vue, Washington. His father is an employee of The Boeing Company of Seattle, and transferred to Hill Air Force Base to work in the Minute Man Missle Program when Doug was ten months old. The Fosmarks have contributed a lot to the community of Roy; especially in athletics. Big brother, Mike made status, playing football for Roy High School, and is now at Utah State University on scholarship, and like Doug plays offensive center. Doug has a fourteen year old brother, Jim; who played football, baseball and basketball at Roy Junior High School, and shows a lot of promise; especially in football. He also has a married sister, Sue, (Mrs. Dennis Peterson of Ogden) we couldnt find her name on the football rosters. Unfortunately, Roy will have seen the last of the Fosmarks in athletic competition after this year. President Carter, in trimming down the Minute Man Missle program, caused a closedown of the Boeing facilities at Hill Air Force Base, and the Fosmarks are being transferred back to Washington. Dougs parents are Donald and Francis Larsen Fosmark of 2635 West, 4900 South in Roy. We will miss the Fosmarks, and forever be grateful for the contribution they made to the community. The Royals wish them d in their return to Washington. Doug is a good wrestler in the 185 pound division. He had to shed 15 pounds from his football days, to qualify for the team, but by next fall, he will be back up to weight. He spends a lot of time "pumping Iron in the weight and is room.

He has always been a great competitor. Doug was a veteran starter on the Royal football team, where he played offensive center and defensive tackle for two years. He spent half of the season, limping on a sore ankle, but earned honors, and honorable mention. Doug was the anchor of the Roy line, going both ways. Fos as he is known on campus, is not as big as his brother Mike, and probably wont get offers beyond the junior college ranks. Mike at 64 and 230 pounds was heavily recruited, both and out. He chose Utah State to play college ball. Doug would also like to go to USU, but at 60 and 200 pounds, may not get the opportunity - yet.

One Royal supporter, when asked if he saw any "Home Cooking", replied, "home Cooking, Home Canning, Home Quilting, you name it; it was there. I have never, in my life, seen such a poorly officiated game. Ted Smith is too much of a gentleman to blame the loss on the officiating, but when the Idaho press asked him to comment on his final game with Cottonwood, the first thing he said was, "The officiating was excellent. tongue-in-chee- d The tournament, during the Christmas holidays, was fun for the for the Royals, and a good tune-u- p Region One wars which continue on January 5, when the Roy entertains the Viewmont Vikings.
