HOOP GAME LAST HALF Has-beens?f—local Bas- ketball Are Run Off Their Feet Strange things are supposed to! happen in Alaska, but probably nothing stranger ever occurred than last night’s battle of unconditioned basketball veterans with the City League Henning five in which the latter squad handed the “old men” a 47-36 beating. Yesterday noon when it became known the cutter Haida's basket- ball team had sea legs and could not play, a team of basketball play- ers was gotten together from the ranks of “forgotten men." Two of the players had been play- ing regularly, but the other eight which composed the veteran squad had not' played ball for years. Most of them had never played ball to- gether and some of them had not played' a game for several years. All wére very much out of condition. For a time it looked much as though the “old men” would make a close race of it, but by the last whistle, early speed had dwindled to painful walks. The first half ended 23-17 in favor of Henning's five and from there on out, the Clothiers led easily. S8axton and Chapados led the field in points, bagging 14 and 1¢ points respectively for the Clothiers but heroes of the game were Everett Nowlel, Doc Hollmann and Stan Grummett who were playing basket- ball. when most, of their opponents were still in grade school. Krause Beats Moose In the opening game of the night Krause was just too much power- house, for the Moose squad and beat the . tail-enders. 49-35. Moose, however, have uncovered a boy who will be one of the best basketball players on the channel, Mutphy, High School boy who had study “troubles and was ineligible for the school squad. Murphy ran up 13 points in the first half, potting impossible angle push shots from all over the floor and batting near one thousand in his average.- However, in the sec- ond half, Krause men set to work guarding Murphy well and he scor- ed but three points more. Players scored last night as fol- lows: Hennings: Saxton, 14; Lewis, 0, Metzgar, 8; Chapados, 13; Parkin. son, 2; Lawson, 10; Lucas, 0.
