Douglas seemingly did not have a chance to win. Those who had seen the Islanders play in previ- ous games expected to see them give the Collegians a hard . tus- sle, but the latter outfit had prac- tically no trouble with the oppu- sition, 'scoring often, and being in possession of the ball a major portion of the time. While the College made 62 at- | tempts from the field, 17 of whicn found their mark, Douglas had only 34 attempts chalked up, and of thi§ number but four were made good. Few fouls were call- ed, six on the Islanders and two on the visitors, Opening Quarter The Island boys were unable to put a single basket through the hoop in the opening quarter, and held the Fairbanks quintet dow:a to three field goals, one by Loftus and two by Smith.
