Concrefers C—oae from Be- hind fo Win in Final Minutes-Elks Win Krause 42; Haida 40 Elks 35; Moose 26 > Concreters 1aid down a heavy attack in the second half lasp night, came from behind and battled their way into> a two-point win over the league-leading Hailda squad—a win that, almost to a pcint, was a table-turner from the tirst time the two teams met this sexson. Last month when Concreters and Heida met for the first time, Krause led at halftime, 19-10 and the Haida came from behind to win, 4«40 in the last minutes. Last night, the Haida was lead- ing, 18-11 at the middle post, and Krause came from behind to win 42-40, also winning in the last minutes. As the game got under way last night, the Haida crew was click- ing nicely and appeared to be off a slaughter party, ending the first period 11-2, Krauses scoring in the last two minutes of the period. to Shots Rim Hoop In the second quarter, Krause did better and continually watched their shots rim the hoop and swoop back out again. But as the second half started, it was easy to see that the Krause ive were playing with blood in their eyes. They whittled away at the score steadily, and closed the gap 22 points. The Krause boys pulled out in front then, but stocky Bob Wal- dron of the Haida hit the loop for three in a how, tied the game at 32-all and then gave the Hai- da’s a 34-32 lead. Claude Erskine hit his stride again and tied the score for Krause at the 36 tally. Nelron of Krause Mllowed with conversion of a free toss that put Haida one point behind.

With the scores but one point apart, McMahon of the Haida was given a free toss—and missed Waldron purposely fouled Lind- strom, hoping to get control of the ball after the backboard play. Krau could have taken the ball out of bounds instead of playing for the shot, under the new rules, but Lindstrom elected to shoot for the point and made it. The game ended a second later, the Haida defeated for the first time in four starts this seasoh, but still at the top of the league, lead- ing the Krause five, in second place, by but a few percentage figures. Moose vs. Elks The Moose lost another — their eighth this season, by a score of 35-26, although they led at the half, 18 to 14 and looked very much like they were breaking their long streak of tough luck. Slim Murphy of the Moose, 16- year-old former High School flasH, was held to 8 points last nignt and never scored a field goal in the second half. High point man for the evening was Young of the Elks, who hit 11 points. The game was slow and on the floor most of the time with the referee’s whistle continually toot- ing to stop the football. After the second half had got- ten under way, there was no doubt as to whose ball game it was and Elks just pulled gradually away. One newcomer to Juneau appeared with the Elks last night, tall rangy lad by the name of Vick- lund. He scored no points in the brief time he played, but looks as though he will help the squad congiderably. ur Scoring was as follows: Krause Stragier Lindstrom Jenson Erskine S.

Mercury will be near the western horizon shortly after sunset, follow- ed in order by Jupiter, Venus, Saturn and Mars. They will be almost evenly spaced, “hanging one above the other in the twilight glow like a necklace of colorful jewels,” accord- ing to William H. Barton, Jr., of the Hayden Planetarium. Mr. Barton added that the spectacle would be so unusual that even eclipses would seem commonplace by comparison. No one now living, he said, will see a repetition of the phenomenon.
