BRINGING UP FATHER BEARSKNOCK : OVER KAYHI; - WINPENNANT ' Juneau Cops Southeast Al- asva Basketball Tourna- ment in Second Game SCORE LAST NIGHT Yurcau High 35; Ketchikan High 27 The Juneau High Crimson Bears won the Southeast Alaska Basket-| ball tournament last night in the| Juneau High gym in the second| 2ame of the two-out-of-three series 15 they wore and pounded down! the Ketchikan High School Kayhis | to an ignominous defeat. The Ket-| chikan visitors were beaten more | badly than the score showed. | For, tired from playing 12 games in 14 days and touring from Ket- chikan in a small boat, the Ketchi-| kan tive was out-play oul-passed and out-classed by the tireless Crim- son Bears Four Times for Juneau { Last night's win for the J-Hil stuck another feather in its cap and made the fourth time that Juneau has won the tournament in the last 20 years, The last time Juneau |u§| the pennant was in| 19: Kétchikan has won seven times; Petersburg, four times, | Douglas, four times; Juneau, four times, and Wrangell, once. A packed house of avid hoop fans squeezed themselves into the balcony and bleachers of the gym- nasium until the overflowing point was reached, to see the two de- termined teams throw caution (o} the wind to start the whirlwind| first half that had the teams tied| four times, and ended with the Crimson Bears holding a mere one- point lead Toss-Up | The game was anyone's for the| first frame with the score teeter-| ing back and forth, but the Kay-| his were already being outplayed. And it was the remarkable con- ditioning of the Crimson Bear quint that won them the game. Only tco obviously can the local boys run up apd down the maple court by the hour. Sober-faced Donald Murphy, the lad who never fails, pulled down | 14 points for his five with Miller | holding 10 to tie high-point man| | Ellis of the Kayhis. | ! Fast and hof, the Tight' was the| | cleanest ever played by the Crim-| son Bears who rapparently havei turned over a new leaf and have lost their bites, kicks, hacking and| slugging tactics . . . at least to 'J} | great extent. When a Bear was| hacked before he would merely| | slug 'em back, but now he cries| to the referee. It i3 scientific ball| they're playing and it's winning| | them games, Only eight fouls were | called on the local five during the | game in comparison with twelve | on Ketchikan, Second Half | The second half started with the| | fans on edge, this could be any-, | ene’s ball game, Juneau had a one- | point lead and a lot of fight . . .| | that was all. And even if the local | | talent did build up a. larger advan- | | tage 1t seemed almost useless. Six'- { points was no lead in' that game, |1t could be wiped away by a few quick shots under the basket, But the Bears kept building un- til the board showed 25 to 20 for | Juneau and the third frame ended. | Toe fourth opened up and the| | fans went wild. This was the canto | that could win or lose a tourna- ment, eight minutes of play that, lcould determine the outcome of the | whole seflson. But the visitors were | | playing ragged ball by now and the | only Kayhi player who had any | ncticable fight fight left was Math- ' | isen, who is quite noted for having | | that quality. | And still Juneau kept plugging' | away, working under the buket} | and breaking iast to score and | score again. The visitors got the | ball for a several minute period | and massed under the local basket, | to shoot again and again but io! (no avail, Lady Luck was against them. The ball circled the hoop land dropped everywhere but! | through it. During the last few minutes of the game the Kayhis, realizing that they must fight now if never again, put on a spurt that did not waste mniutes and gave the fans more than their money's worth, but YES-MRS KATZENDOGGS - I'VE TAKEN COMPLETE CHARGE OF MY HUSBANDS BUSINESS -OH-1 JUST LOVE GOING TO THE OFFICE EVERY DAY -BU T | AM NOT GOIMG TODAY-AS I'VE A BRIDGE DATE AT MRS DOGG'S HOUSE — 2 ok BN A4 ey could not do a night's work in’ twg minutes and the final horn| sounded to end the game, and the tournament, with the score 35 fo 27 for Juneau No e Tonight The third game of the series will not be playved and the Ketchikan aggregation will be the guest of Juneau High at a dance tonight, before sailing on Casey Morans Ariow for Ketchikan tomorrow morning | Following are the box scores for iast night's game: Juneau High FG L 6 0 FT TP 14 McDaniel Lucas Miller 14 1 Ketchikan High Player FG FT Ellis 4 2 Farstad Bolduc Mathisen Hodgman Tom Llanos Henry Llanos Leding Newell Totals Totals SMITHBERG 1S HIGH MAN AT LOCAL ALLEYS Otto Smithberg of the Three Musketeers totalled 591 pins last night in the second match of the evening’s play at the Brunswick alleys as his team beat down the Baranof keglers 3 to 1 In the first match the Barber's Trio and the North Transfer bowl- ers split the meet 2 to 2 as they alternated wins up to the last game.
