FRIDAY, MARCH 16, 1951 CRIMSON BEARS BA(K WITH COMPLIMENTS FOR GAME OFFICIALS The concensus by the Juneau High school basketball team and Coach Arnold Soley is that there never has been as good refereeing in Juneau as there was at the All- Alaska basketball championship games held in Anchorage this week But the main complaint was the fact that the team had to play the first game on Monday with only 30 minutes of practice. The Crimson Bears were not given more of ¢ practice session because a physical education class had not been can- celled which could have given th team another hour. “We always cancelled all physica | education classes here so that the| | | yisiting team could have more tim¢ to get used to a strange floor,” saic Soley. “The officials were best for the second and third games with the | first game called too closelv. The officials said that Juneau had the best players for sportsmanship tha: | any other team that had been in | Anchorage during the past season,” | he said. “Anchorage had a good | club and is traveling to Venconver B. C. for a game there. The towns- people got up the pool to send the team there.” “Anchorage had a height advan- tage but with proper rest and 2 good practice session, we more than likely could have shown the Eagles a better run for the money. The | fans including the high school kids were difinitely for us,” Soley said. “Our team tensed up during thc second and fourth quarters of the first game though they were re- laxed and really playing good ball in the first and third periods. This was probably as a direct result of the plane ride on the same day we played. We were told that radic time could not be arranged to have the first game delayed by one day,” he concluded. ‘There was a student assembly for the Crimson Bears on Tuesday afternoon. Sterling S. Sears, super- intendent of schools, gave a resume of the All-Alaska games and how the tournament had been built up. Soley introduced the Bears at the assembly. ‘When the Crimson Bears returned yesterday afternoon, a large wel- coming assembly was held here. Joe Ninnis, high point man for both teams in the first two games is the only player that said he would like to live in Anchorage. He said that the last two games of the three | game series was a better show of | officiating than had been here dur-| ing the past season. Ninnis totaled | 21 points in the first game and 15 in the second. “We were too tired from the plane | ride for the first game and we had to practice right after the trip up,” Ninnis said, “or get no practice at | all.” “It was not so nice of them not | to postpone that first game,” said | Herbie Martin. “We would have stood a better chance at the title if we had had the proper rest.” “The Anchorage team was a good team to play but there wasn’t much | spirit shown by the Anchorage stu- dents for their own team. The team was a bunch of good sports, though. ‘We had about 12 alumni there root- ing for us who are stationed with the Army at Anchorage,” said Eng- strom. T0 DEPORT BRIBER IN BASKETBALL NEW YORK, March 16 —(#—The Justice Department has moved to deport Salvatore Sollazzo, the ex- convict accused as the master briber in the college basketball scandal here. But the Manhattan district at- torney hopes to convict him of brib- ery and make him serve a sentence before any deportation. A warrant of arrest was served on Sollazzo in his jail cell yesterday in proceedings for deportation to his native Italy. Grounds for a deportation order. the Justice Department said, in- clude past convictions for crimes fnvolving moral turpitude, entrance into this country illegally, and mis- representing himself as an Ameri- can citizen to immigration author- ities. Sollazzo, a jewel merchant and gambler, is held without bail on a bribery indictment. He is charged with bribing 11 players or former players of three New York colleges to fix basketball games in Madison Square Garden so he could clean up on bets. Sollazzo also has been indicted on income tax evasion charges, served with a large tax lien and investi- gated about gold transactions. ~EMPIRE WANT ADS PAY— t night on the three pdints tc Juneau Drug won Alaska Coastal; Transfer Elks alleys lost Sweeneys Bar two points from Casler’s won two from Pan Ameri-| la: Caro can and Pacific Northern won two from Alaska Light High game and a box of candy from Caro Transfer was won by W.
