The scrappy J Hi boys were on their toes all the time but seemed unable to get the rebound from the back- board, and despite superb ball bandling and team work were over- whelmed by the cool shooting of Chapados and the other Firemen. Firemen Blast Rapidly scoring three baskets in succession early in the first quar- ter, the Firemen blasted the Bears with fast shots from Chapados, Brown and Powers until the high/| schoo! five called a time out and! a coference, Then there was a difference for the remainder of the canto, The Firemen hardly laid a! hand on the ball for the remain- der of the first session, but checked their opponents down to no field goals, giving them three points on free throws At the beginning of the second period a fine piece of team work by Martin and Murphy netied the Bears a score, and then Murphy scored by the same play with a one-hand shot to keep the scove only onc point behind the fire- eaters, Then Chapados got het and made four in a row to pul the J Ili way behind and almost in the doldiun [t was only the determination of Murphy, little Hallie Rice and Lu- cas that brought the markers up {to 20-14 in favor of the Firemen when the horn sounded ending the first half. Bears Break Loose And from then on the game was in the bag for the fighting Fire- men. The Bears did not lessen the battle, however, but continued to scrap up until the last minute and a half of the game when all fury broke loose on the floor and. the Firemen were run ragged by the furious high school squad attempt- ing to make a riotous recovery. But not enough time was left to play in the game, with Miller making the net dance with a shot still in the air, the game ended 35 to 28, one of the finest, fightingest games played on ever a hoop tloor. 3 1t looked as if the Eagles had lost their grip and also their stand- ing in the second game of the night's doubleheader as L. G Nelson scored against the Elks in the first five minutes of play and then did not score again, as did the rest of his team, until the next canto when the Elks had built up a score of 12 to 2 against them. Vanderhoek on Top Vanderhoek was the boy who caused thg Eagles most of their trouble, scoring 16 points in the game with Russell, who is slowly working off some of that rust which, has been bothering him, scoring | total of 9. !

The Elks were confident at the beginning of the third canto, the game had been all theirs until then and the score was still six| points ahead of the Eagles. But they were due for an upset. Nelson Starts Rally Swarthy L. B. Nelson started the end for the Elks in the fourth, shooting consistent baskets apd fighting for the ball on the re- bounds. Most of the Eagles and many of the Elks had three person- als on them when Druliner was sent out of the game with four fouls and L. B. Nelson started his spree.
