Experience and shooting ability | will be matched against youth and speed tomerrow night at Juneau High School as the George Broth- ers and the DeMolays square off in the first game of the champion- ship series for the 1934-35 City Basketball League title. The fitular game will get un- | der way promptly at 7:30 o'clock with an exhibition tilt between Juneau High School and the Ju- neau Firemen “all stars” following | at 8:30 o'clock. ( Experience and shooting ability the veteran George Brothers team | certainly has. Holders of the 1933- 34 title as well as of the first half crown for this season, the Green Shirts will make a strong bid for their second consecutive champi on- ship in the cominz three-game se- ries. They boast two of the finest marksmen in the circuit in “sure shot” Bob McPhee, leading rer. and Claude Erskine. Both (‘1ez- players can be counted on for more than ten points in almost any game. Experience, Too Then, too, Erskine adds experi- ence along with Art Burke, Dewey Baker and Bob Davlin. Not “slow” in any sense of the word, these men are Juneau veterans when it comes to the hoop sport. Sure passing and a sterling defense are offered by the Green Shirts. However, matching them will be a quintet which shows lightning- fast speed for every minute of any ball game. In Elmer Lindstrom, Al Bloomquist and Hilding Haglund, the DeMolays have three of the fastest men in the league.. Their zipping style of play was a major factor in the DeMolays’ march to the second half crown. i Added, is Kinky Bayers, leading scorer for the first half, and Ed Garnick, erstwhile guard. The for-, mer is always dangerous under the backet, while the latter, not a scoring player, is a solid rock on the defense. 0Odds Are Even Twice, the teams have met ths scascn. The George Brothers won | in the first half, only to have the‘ DeMolays cop . the second half meeting. Evenly matched, odds are| cven today as to tomorrow mnhn probable vietor. The two teams are scheduled Lov battle again Thursday night. If| the series then stands at one vic- lory apiece, a third, and deciding tussle will be played, probably Sat- urday. The second game tomorrow night iz billed not only as an added at-| traction to please the expected! large crowd, but to furnish the High School team with a much- needed hard contest before meeting ‘Wrangell here soon for the saut.h- east Alaska prep title. Kelly Blnke manager of the Juneau firemen, is | gathering a strong team to oppcse the High School. SECOND SIMPSON BROTHER IS ALSO | ON COACHING JOB, COLUMBIA, Mo., March 4—A college coaching job has attracted the second of the Simpson brothers. Chauncey Simpson, recently ap- pointed chief assistant to Don Fau- rot, new head football coach at the University of Missouri, is a| brother of Bob Simpson, veteran Towa State college track mentor. Both brothers are graduates of| Missouri, where Bob was one of| Mizzou's all-time athletic heroes. He was an Olympic hurdle cham- | pion. e ATTENTION—Business and Professional Wemen's Club There will be a meeting tonight in the City Council Chambers at 8 o'clock. Important business.

The Cougars trimmed their tra- ditional rivals from Idaho in a game at Fullman, Wash, 34 to 23. Oregon bested Oregon State at Eugene in a 20-28 thriller. Although th2 league-leader was defeated in this latter game, it had no bearing on the champion- ship, as Oregon State had cinched that Tuesday night.

I However, that figure did not reach the mark of 27346 miles per hour which he set in 1933. ‘The ‘course was bumpy.
