DOUGLAS TAKES
FIRST GAME IN
ANNUAL SERIES
Stages Comeback in Second
Half and Wins from Juneaii
by Score of 24 to 17.
Outplayed .by Juneau Irish In the
first half in last night's game in
the Douglas Nat. the Doughty High
School five staged a typical Island
comeback and won in the last seven
•minutes of play, taking the openin ’,
game of the annual school basketball
series by a score of 24 to 17. The
Islanders wop by being in better
phvisicaJ condition and holding their
heads in the critical period, while
the HHltoppers, in the pinch, forgot
the game and let their wits go wool
gathering.
Jimmy Manning, Douglas’ center,
was the bright and shining star of
the evening and his brilliant field
work made it possible for his team
to win after it looked to be beaten.
Darn's shooting from the foul line
was another Important factor in the
outcome, the little forward caging
eight out of 11 free throws.
Juneau Opens Strong
Both learns started off slow on the
offense, but with the defense almost
perfect. For almost five minutes
neither had an opportunity to score.
Cam caged the first shot of the
game, making one from the foul line.
Barragar, shortly afterward, broke
through for a goal from scrimmage
and after that Juneau was never
headed in the first half. The Hill
toppers came to life and by clever
teamwork, superior passing on the
offense and close chocking on the
defense, closed the opening period
well to the front with the score 10
to 5. Neither Garn nor Kronquist,
Douglas' forwards, wore uMe to col
lect a basket in the first half. Only
two field goals were made by the
Islanders in the first 20 minutes
' play. Manning getting one and Vale
son the second, Douglas tried a shift
i in the first, switching Valeson from
guard to forward, scndwig Kronquisi
to the side lines and putting Vesoja
in at guard. The change did not af
J feet the situation.
Second Half Disa-trous
Fast as tire play had bee.: ia the
first period, it was sh w compared to
: the pace with which the second start
i ed off. Douglas came back to win.
Manning and Gain covered the floor
like a canvas. Manning showing
• ia- unusually good. Darn was good
but not good enough to get away
from White, star guard for the Hill
1 toppers. Douglas switched back to
its original lineup in the second
' half, Kronquisi celebrating his re.
turn to forward by caging two front
| scrimmage.
Douglas tied the score at 14 all
early in the second period. Ilarra
gar again put his team-mates in th >
lea l by a goal from scrimmage only
! to see it tied at 16 all a few seconds
later. Seitaglini was forced out of
the game with four personal touts
^ with seven minutes to play. Janin cla
I taking his place. The latter tried
hard, but his mates slowed down.
The Hill toppers' defense w.-in
pieces in the last seven minutes and
the Islanders scored on open shots
| enough to win a game that looked
at one time to be all Juneau's.
White Makes Record
Captain George White set a record
by holding Garn. the latter being un
able to make a field goal during the
entire game. White passed In fine
shape and was equally strong on
offense and defense. Orme also
played a fine game at guard, but two
baskets being made off him. Britt
had whn edge on M miming on th■>
tipoff, but the latter's speed on the
floor and shiftiness outweighed the
slight handicap. Scataglini put up
a good floor game, but was cheeked
too closely to shoot. He Was Inclined

FOUGHT GAME
Take First Game ol Basket
ball Senes by Score 12-10
—Put Up Fine Game.
With a score of 10 to 12. in favor
of the Douglas High School, the
first game of the season's series was
I played last evening at the Douglas
.VatatorHim between the Douglas and
Juneau High School girls’ basketball
teams. The game was close in score
from the start to the finish a.nd was
hard fought by both teams, being
one of the best games played by the
girls' teams in several seasons.
ill an Hni»
•wo baskets early in the first half.
Lundstrom made a field goal and
a free shot. In the second part of
the first half, the Douglas forwards
came in strong, Aalto shooting two
field 'boskets and McCormick making
one. Juneau’s guards played a fine
game in the first half, and especially
jin the first part, showing swift pass
1 ing and quick guard work.
The Douglas guards were not fast
during the first half and l»rt open
I ings throughout for basket shots,
j which, had the Juneau forwards been
‘ more familiar with the positions of
I the baskets, would probably have
I won the game. Ruth Krugness, Ju
|neau side-center, played a fast and
| winning game, but held the ball too
I long before passing. The first half
leaded with the score 7 to 6, in fa
i vor of Juneau.
In the second half Juneau fell
Mown on passing and basket shoot
ing. The center playing was not so
(good as in the first half. The Doug
j las centers put up a strong fight,
’covering their opponents at every
| opening. The guard work was not
I - i good on either side during the
I last part of the second half. To
ward the end of the game all of the
layers fought hard and while the
i gamp was a hit rough, the playiDg
! an both sides was clean. Only one
field shot was made by the Juneau
[team during the second half, by
i Lnndstrom, who also threw a free
shot. Aalto, of Doufflas, threw the
.only goals for that team, making
I three shots. The Douglas forwards
j used a number of clever tricks for
outwitting their guards.
The second game of the series
will be played Friday night next,
I February 9. on the Juneau High
I School gymnasium. Playing on their
I own floor, the Juneau team is eon
I fidpnt that it will make the winning
score.
No personal fouls were called on
the Juneau players, while four were
called on the players of the Douglas
team.
