- 8'*— EVERYTHING 0. K. NOW FOR HOOP GAMES FRIDAY Juneau and Douglas High Schools Will Battle Tomorrow Night ' Everything is O. K. for the bas- | ketball games between boy and girl teams representing Juneau and Douglas high schools at Douglas tomorrow night. Differences over the selection of officials, which prevented the playing of the con- tests that were scheduled for last | Friday, have been entirely com- posed, and James Manning of Douglas will be referee and John Douglas will be referee and LLoyd Vincent of Seattle umpire in the approaching struggles of the hoop athletes.

In the scheduled series of five possible contests, the winning of three victories is suffi- cient to gain Gastineau Channel ‘honors. The Juneau boys have two tri- umphs to their credit and need but one more victory. las boys have won only once. The Douglas girls, with two games to their credit, have to take but one more, while the Juneau girls, having been victorious only once, must win two more contests in succession to gain the cham- plonship. | Staged At Weekly Intervals The three previous games were staged at weekly intervals with the hesult that in the last encounters, because of previous strenuous play there were some “cripples” among both boy and girl athletes.

G. ‘Wentland, coach of the Juneau boys, said today, “members of the boys squad are in fine condition. Hilding Haglund turned his ankle in practice the other day, and he will not be recovered from the injury by tomorrow night. He is not likely to play. “Breaks” To Decide Victories “I look for the best and most closely contested game of the series tomorrow.
