At the start the local five was crippled by the loss of Hansena Campen, who was barred from the game because of objections raised by the Douglas faculty un- der the four-year rule of the School Meet Association. Jensen was placed in the pivot position while Barragar was put in as guard in Jensen’s regular berth.

In the third quarter a renovatéd team went in for the focal bunch. Perkins was put in for Larson as side-center, Larson replaced Morrison in one of the forward berths and the latter was put in at guard for Berrgren.

This period end- ed with Douglas still in the lead 20 to 18. Douglas did not score a single point in* the final quarter, while the Juneau forwards, in their four final attempts in this period, sank the same number of baskets, pass- ing their opponents and winning 26 to 20, emerging victors in a thrilling game and taking honors in’ the first of the allimportant games of the Channel Series.
