J. H. S. WINS IN I
STIFF CONTEST
WITH SOLDIERS
Defeats Post Team 29 to 23
—Army Team Shows Im
proved Form Last Night.
Tlis> Juneau High School live las;
night defeated the Soldier Post team
from Chilkoot Barracks by a icon;
ol' 29 to 23 in a game that was never
safe until the referee's final whistle
blew. The school squad led at the I
end qf the first half by a score of
16 to 8, but narrowly escaped being
headed in the final period, wh n
Clarke, center for the Soldiers, broke
loose with a burst of speed and goo 1
playing that netted him four baskets.
The game was fast, played at a
clip that made it rough. In fact,
there wore times when the floor
was strewn with players, res ambling'
a football field rather than a basket
ball floor. The canvass covered
floor was largely responsible for the
roughness and caused many spills.
One spill, occurring when Matthews.
Soldier guard, attempted to evade a
checking play, slipped in whirling
and crashed hi ad-on inti) the wall.
He was unconscious for about in
minutes and unable to resume play.
No serious effects, however, resulted1
from the fall.
Soldiers Score First
Rogers, left forward for the Sol
diers, scored the first basket of thi
game, shooting one trom scrimmage
after about three minutes of play.
This proved to he his only basket
of the entire game. The High I
School tied almost immediately an i
was never headed from that time.
Barragar, Britt and Scataglini did
the scoring for the local squad, Brit; !
being high man with 15 points, Bar
ragar second with 10 and Scataglini'
i:h::!l(ing up six. li.lrragar led in
goals from scrimmage with five, j
Britt caging four and live from free j
throws.
Clarke, Post center, scored 15 out |
of tile 23 points counted by the Sol- J
tiers. Britt held him safely in the I
tirst half, hut Clarke broke away in :
the latter part of tin- second, caging!
four from scrimmage in quick order.
Juniksela, who replaced Britt in tliej
last few minutes of play, stopped!
Clarke's scoring.
Material for Team
In the men on the floor last night,
uid those held in reserve on the
side liens, Coach Hughes has the ma
terial for a first class team. In
White and Orrne, guards, are two
sard checkers, good passers and ex-!
rellent defense men. The Soldier |
forwards were checked so closely >
tnd hard last night that they sel-l
loin had an open shot. Scataglinil
failed to connect for many baskets|
hut played a steady game on the
•‘iaor. Hi.-, work, as in the case with
mes* of the High School men, was
marred by fumbles. B.irragar has
not rounded inlo condition but again;
proved he is the most dependable j
forward the school has. Britt played;
t fine game ail of the first Half and'
part of the second, but weakened!
near the end of the game. While
the team's work as a whole was bet-;
ler than last year, it still needs prac-j
ice and lots of it.

—
Tlie Elks gave a bowling party

won, 2,5(10 to 1,957.
With new pins and strange alleys!
to contend with, the scldiers found |
it hard going. They ware also ui
against Jimmy Barra gar, who was
never in better form and who ran
up a total of (147 pins for the litre
games, or an average- of 21(1. This
is the best mark any bowler has
made for a long time in Juneau.

army men, averaging 156 and get
ting high score, 187.
