BY GOLLY- | FORGOT TO BRING ALONG A GOOD SUPPLY OF CIGARS - NOW-1 AM ALL OUT OF ‘EM— ELKS DEFEAT HIGH SCHOOL IN PLAY OFF Douglas Loses to DeMolay Squad in Tilt—Game This Evening Juneau High School's iast sta of the season was a valiant one, the fates favored the E! by three points last night to give the Purple squad a 41 to 38 victory in the cham- pionship play-off preliminaries. Douglas, less fortunate than the Elks who won their two prelimin- ary games in succession, lost last night to the DeMolays by a score of 46 to 33. As a result, the De- Molays and Douglas lads will tussle again tonight at 7:30 pm. in. the high school gymnasium to settle their City League sianding. The Islanders and Lodgemen each have now won one game in the champion- ship play-off, and the winner to- night will meet the winning Elks squad next Tuesday night. Out to Win Both games last night were marked by fast playing. The open- ing tilt between the High School and Elks saw the Varsity Crimson Bears “out to win,” but the Elks were in better shooting form and managed to clear their way to vic- tery despite determined opposition. Both sides were taken by surprise when Referee Bud Foster started the evening off by calling closer on fouls than ever before. High school rooters were soon howling when foul after foul was called on the Bears, but the final tally showed almost an equal number for each team, 18 fouls for the High School and 17 for the Elks. Three Bear men went out on fouls, Powers, then DeVault and finally AH-IT TAKES ME TO THINK OF THINGS:DO YOU MIND ? B8rown.

Davlin and Dale Druliner on fouis The game was a w.de open cne with: boith sides letting down barriers of caution, as the number of fouls in- dicate. Event of the evening was Stan Grummett’s long anticipated ippearance on the floor. The Elks were in good form again, especially for shooting, while the High School, although successful in cet-ups, was throwing wild or pass- ing too often when chance shots pened. Gil Devault was again high man for the Bears, followed by Hil- dre and Hansen, while Dick May of the Elks (in top form all evening) hit a high score mark of 14, leading Roy Smith of the Elks by 1 point. Douglas’ Night Off Winning Thursday night's game proved too much for the Douglas Eagles who found the spark of bat- tle lacking last night. Intermittently fighting, the Eagles let the DeMolays push through to victory without too much opposition. The DeMolay squad continued its successful prac- tice of following shots through, and ran up a lead which the Islanders failed to endanger after the first few minutes of play Nelson, Bayers and Pinckley were high point men for the DeMolay, while Erskine was in there fighting to the tune of 15 points for Doug- las. Stragier made two beautiful shots in the third quarter and for _ a few minutes the Islander fans looked hopeful, but the final quar- ter failed to bring a strong Doug- las rally and the game ended 46 o 33 SUMMARIES High School FG FS PF TP Hansen, f 9 Powers, f 2 Hildre, ¢ DeVauilt, g Brown, g Behrends, s Hussey, s NOTICE!!

All the workings are on private property, quite some distance from any public road; trespassers thereon are in danger from blast- ing and from caving ground. Approaches to the workings have been posted with trespass notices but some notices may be covered with snow. Therefore, the public is warned, whether or not they see a notice, against going into the vicinity of the open pits or the extension thereof, particularly in the Icy Guich area. It is hoped that this warning will be heed- ed by all,” thereby making any trespass pro- * ceedings unnecessary.

Jarred from the pleasant busi- ness in hand (that of scientifically determining just how far a brother | grunt and groaner’s neck could | be stretched and yet retain the | power to snap back nearly into proper place), “Doc responded to certain barbed inquiries with the | declaration: 'i “I am a clean wrestler—especi- ally when my bouts are billed for Baturday nights, I don’t believe in Tonight's game will be played in Palo Alto.

Then, I just get perturbed. | “You know, these refs may think | they'’re Japan and I'm China in| this undeclared war—but, I just kind of think that in my next bout, | on the 25th, I'll pin back the ears| of both the lug they throw in against | me—and the referce.” So—you see—"Doc” is a kindly sort of guy.
