City Basketball Teams
Down Base Fives In
Friday Night Schedule
The two city teams defeated
the two base teams in games
played last Friday at the high
school. In the first tilt, Lomen’s
dropped the 10th Radio 50-35
while the Nome Nanooks romped
. over the Detachment 23rd 36-24.
The taller 10th Radio team
couldn’t muster up enough attack
to cope with the offense of the
Commercials as they lost their 3rd
game of the second half. Gene
Peek’s jump shots from outside
the key and Don Knipp’s floor
play under the backboard kept
the Radio team in the game. Lo
mens led throughout the quarters
11-5, 21-14. 34-27 and the final
50-35.
Scoring for Lomens, Ike Larsen
14, Vince Ahkolik 12, Johnny
Schellenbach 10, Herb Williams 8
and Larry Okpealuk 6. For the
Radio, Peek 16, Knipp 10, Bob
Logan 4, Pete O'Brien 3, and Geo.
Tolbert 2.
With two of their regulars out
of the lineup, the Nome Nanooks
managed to overcome the Detach
ment 23rd in the third quarter
after trailing the first two 12-8
and 17-14. The two teams were
tied at 21-21 before the High
School forged ahead to post a 28
23 score at the third quarter.
Playing slow, deliberate ball in
the remaining period the Nanooks
picked up 8 points while holding
the 23rd to just one as they won
out 36-24.
Buzzy Swanberg paced the win
ners with 20, Sam Mogg 9, Dave
Bell 3, Jackie Muller 2, Chuck
Fagerstrorn and Robert Summers,
one point each. For the Detach
ment 23rd, Ellis 8, Jones 7, Schrag,
Speltz, Swygert and Weaver 2
each, and Newell 1.
Tomorrow evening in the first
of two games, the Little Guys will
play the Junior Varsity at 7 p.m.
The series is tied at one game
apiece, so the action should be
fast and furious. Following the
; boy’s game, the Nome High Hus
| kies tangle with the Nome High
! Alumni team. Coach Hana Kan
I gas’ team has taken the first two
j of this series.
