Basketliall Fans
Witness Fast,
Scrapping - Flay
Last Friday evening basketball
fans were again treated to two
very well played contests by hard
scrapping clubs. In the first tilt
the ACS-CAA went all out to
knock off a tough National Guard
squad in a low scoring contest,
26-23.
T'-'e second game showed the
ANB outdistancing the High
School Nanooks by a 50-41 count.
The ACS-CAA game with the
Guard was a hard pressing affair
all the way. Good team play and
cooperation by the winners was
I the main factor in their victory,
i Frank Justin turned in his best
effort of the season, and was con
stantly setting up plays and clear
ing the boards. Also, for the first
time, he led his club in scoring
with 8 for the night, although he
shoots but seldom. Ralph Zwiegle
hit for 7, and Don Collis and
George Honsucker showed good
; floor play.
Dave Bell was the lad who hit
for the Guard with 7 while Billy
Caldwell and Buddy Black fol
lowed with 5 each.
In their losing try, the High
School showed good promise of
better days as the reliable Ed Ma
loney hit for 13 and did a fine ,iob
afloor. For the first time this sea
son, Chuck Fagerstrom came into
his own with a terrific floor game
plus rebounding and topped it
off with 18 points scored. He
I missed nary a free throw, picking
j up 10.
! Pete Larsen led the winners
with 14 points, followed closely
by Gary Longley with 13 and Har
old Bell with 12. Bell came in dur
ing the second quarter and stead
ied the club and counted three
quick buckets that gave the club
a solid lead they never relin
| quished.
Later this week, complete scor
ing statistics for the league to date
will be released.
The next games will be Friday
, night, with the Merchants vs. Po
lar Hornets, and the High School
! vs. the National Guard.
