The Firemen's quintet played well
They played mighty Well. They; play
ed the best game that they J have
played tuis winter, but—the W. P. i
Athletic club team played just a
lit'le bit better, and it must be j
said that luck had a wee might to
do (with them getting the last two
points, but it must also be admit
ted |tha< tUe lanky Atliletics put up
a beautiful exhibition and played a
fast and |well planned game from
s'art to finish.
It is all | over, and today the
beautiful silver trophy will be en
graved With the (suitable wording
which forever makes it tine property
of the White Pass Athletic Club,
and cit will be placed la a position
ol honor alongside of the goodly
number; of cups and medals which iul
years agone this organization has
had won (for it its members.
Alex Blanchard refereed the game
last night, and he held the players
down to 'real sport, never juterfere
ing except when it |was apparent
that an overt act had been commit
ted which demanded penalizing.
When the time keeper blew the
.wbistle at the end of the first
half, the score stood fifty-fifty, that
is five points each.
For the firemen m me xirsi nan,
Harry Ask made on field basket
•and one free(throw, and Bert Mc
Iveuzie made one field basket. The
Athletics tied tliis score b}' Liddi
coat making one field basket and
Huth making three free throws.
When.time was called for the
seccnd half, both teams got right
down to business j and tliQ work
of both quintets was pretty. Each
played a well :guarded game, but
tho Athletics, wi'h. Hu% Hargraves
aad Smith, who must be credited
with being glightly more seasoned
players than Friedenthal, Watts and
Harry Ask, proved too much j and
wfren time was declared by the
time keeper, the score had ^rolled
up to twelve to. eight in favor of
the club team.
Huth did all the scoring for the
Athletics in the last half, making
two j field baskets and three free
throws. Gleon Ask made one field
basket, while Friedeuthal made one
free throw. He had two other free
♦ries, hU' had hard luck and failed,
while one of Huth's field baskets
was moro a question of fortune than
a necessarily clever play. )
Outside of these ;incidents all
points made were earned.
There can be no questigm, in j the
■minds of those who witnessed the
game that the Athletics are entitled
to the Jcup, and the Daily Alaskan
rakes this meang of congratulating
each aiidj every member of the team
for being thorough sports and for
having been instrumental in furnish
