Juneau High's band and cheerleaders had been transported by bus for the occasion, and Douglas High's small but spirit- ed cheering section plugged away for its team with unflagging optimism and support. Douglas town people were out in full force for the game, and the Crimson Bears were follow- ed by a specially chartered bus and many private automobiles filled with loyal fans from Juneau. 1 Shots Fall Short Jureau High played its usual strong, well-unified game. Shooting was not as good as in previous games, but footwork and he defense ac- tion made up for this lack. The Bears scored 40 points, a high total for any game, but there were many shots attempted that fell short of the basket by substantial distance, and in several instances, sailed over the backboard. Mead was high sccrer on the Ju- neau side with 14 points and Aase second high with 10 points. Two cther outstanding players were Mer- ritt, who made the first goal of the game, and Hogins, who scored 8 points. Pass work on the Bear's team was fast and sure. Huskies Play Clean Douglas High Huskies, always a clean-playing and sportsmanlike quintet, showed surprising strength under pressure last night, and had Juneau guessing. With the score heavily in favor of Juneau during the . first three quarters, the Huskies fought desperately for ground and showed teeth-gritting determination thet wankad hn eangnd string play- ing.from the Bears. Only on sub- Beevmuiuas Wad luaud, OO cae Bears' eam and one on the Huskies’. The fact that first string Juneau High- ers played the full game indicates how far the Douglas team has come singe its first game this seasorf with Juneau when nine substitutes, prac-| tically the Bears' full second and third teams, were entered against it. Despite the Crimson Bear's excel- lent defense forces, Bach, undoubt-| edly one of the top players in the DRINK KING BLACK LABEL! istering at the League® this year, scored 20 points.; Defense Support | Defense support from Bonnett, McCormick, Weir and Harju was noteworthy. Many of Douglas High's former weaknesses had dis- appeared last night, particularly in the team’s all-over pass work. Strat-' egy and aim was good, but fumbles in completing passes were still no- ticeable, and counted for numerous losses of the ball in crucial moments. Referees in last night’s game were Kessenick and Krogman.

NAVY NOW UNFIT TO FIGHT ASSERTS NIMIT MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 12 — Admiral Chester W. Nimitz told Associated Press managing editors last night that demobllization had left the Navy unfit to fight only five months after Japan's defeat. “The saving grace is there is nobody who fthreatens to fight us at this time,” said the Chief of Naval Operations. “You all want your boys home as quickly as possible,” said Nimitz. “I am wholly sympathetic with the natural desire, even if it is more emotional than practical. remains, however, that it leaves the Navy at this moment fight.” !

The Nationnl league moguls said, too, that Layden would remain in an advisory capacity at $20,000 per an- nual “advisory.” In the 52-year-old Bel), the mo- guls picked a man out of their own ranks, who has been fighting pro- foctball's battle ' for the last 13 years.
