I'M GIVIN’ ‘EM A GOOD BAWLIN' OUT RIGHT Syndidate, Inc, Waed g HI SCHOOL RUNS OVER ALUM FIVE Guardsmen—l);feal School‘ ReservesCage Season Is Off to Good Start Inauguration of the 1940-1941 basketball season was brilliantly made in the Juneau High School gymnasium last night, when the Crimson Bear casaba tossers| dumped the Alumni Five, 46 to 26 and the Juneau National Guard quintet defeated the high school Reserves easily, 41 to 14, before an enthusiastic crowd. The Alumni-High School contest was the game of the evening, and the teams put up a stiff battle from the opening gun on through to the last quarter when the Alumni bas- keteers wilted under the terrific pace set by the school lads, and were lost in a flurry of baskets and increasing speed. McDaniel High Pointer Although the high school quin- tet took the game by several points, they had no set-up, for the first three quarters of the game they had all they could handle until that fateful.third quarter when the slowed down to a snail's Alums pace The first quarter ended 7 to 1 favoring the high lads. In this| quarter McDaniels for the high| school made six of the seven points, | in fact he stole the show with 21; points for the evening, as high| point man on the local court open- ing. He counted two points in the second quarter, two points in "hei third, and in that last and fatal| period he massed up a total of 11 points, which then and there washed away any hopes the Alum- ni basket tossers had in mind. Murphy Second Up Murphy came next to McDaniels with 13 points, also making seven, of those in that fourth quarter. It might be said that both these men had an enjoyable evening potting| s rescrved ior the Alumni Tommy Powers highlight on the Crimson Bear squad lasi season, was high with eleven points. The half ended 16 to 8 in the Crimson Bear’s favor, Then at the beginning -of the third quarter the Alums opened the fireworks and with Powers and Krugness connect- ing for beautiful shots, they .nade| the score stand at the end of that period® at 28 to 20, probably as close as they reached the high lads at any time during the game. At this period of the battle it looked even as though the Alumni outfit might make it mighty tough for the fighting Bears. Many Fouls Called That fatal fourth quarter spilled the works though, and the high school boys certainly put on the A total of 27 fouls were called by Referee George Willey during the game. Eleven of them on the Alumni and 16 on the high school.! Rice and Miller of the high school and Brown of the Alumni were called out of the game in the fourth quarter on personal fouls. Of the free throws, the high school converted eight while the Alumni boys connected with the steel ring for four points. Guardsmen Win A new team in Juneau this sea- son, managed by Lieutenant Red- ling, and known as the Juneau Na- tional Guard quintet, trotted on the maple court in the preliminary contest for the evening, and easily| took the measure of a fighting high school second squad, 41 to 14, ‘The outcome of this opening con- test for the evening's entertain-| ment was probably never in doubt,| although the high school Reserves| were playing a feam that was too experienced for them, but they kept up the old fight until the final gun, In this contest Eddie Lawson of| the Guards, led the field with a| total of 17 points. Joe Bird came second with 12, and between these! two men the high school Reserves| were beaten. For the opening gun of the 1940-| 41 season, it could be considered a very successful evening. Further| announcements as to the regular| city league games will be made next week. Following 1s the box score of the two contests last night: short and long shots at will, | heat, and the Alumni wilted under| |it. | BUT, GEE, POLLY ~ CRYING LIKE THAT ISN‘T GOING TO GET You ANYTHING.
