CHIEF II STUFF
REPORT HAS NOTHING
SAT ON HOUSING
JUNIOR OFFICERS LEFT WITH
LITTLE CHANCE PROMOTION;
IS PROBLEM
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19. (#•)—The
irst annual report of Major General
Charges P. Summerall as Chief of
Staff of the Army, awaited with in
erest because of its possible re
packs on army housing conditions,
hnd no word to say on that subject.
As a matter of fact, the document,
made public by the War Depart
ment, is almost completely devoid
of mention of any of the army prob
lems involving budgetary questions.
In summarizing army conditions
General Summerall said there had
been "gradual progress toward the
attainment of the desired peace-time
effectiveness”. He commented brief
ly, however, on the promotion stag
nation situation which leaves junior
offices faced with the prospect of
almost indefinite service with little
if any promotion,” adding the hope
that studies underway would aid
Congress in solvng the problem.

RAYMOND MANTHEY'S
SENSATIONAL PLAY
WINS FOR SEWARD
SEWARD HIGH WINS SERIES
TAKING TWO OUT 0»r THE
THREE GAMES
Seward has seen many fine bas
ketball games but it is doubtful if
ever there was witnessed a better
one than that between the Anchorage
and Seward high school teams last
evening which was anybody’s game
in the first three-quarters, Seward
nosing ahead in the last quarter, due
to the spectacular playing of Ray
mond Manthey, flashing across win
ner by the score of 28 to 22.
The victory was the signal for the
attentance to go frantic with joy. Ray
was carried off the floor on the shoul
ders of his father. And congratula
tions were showered upon every mem
ber of the team and Coach E. J. Bath.
The local cagers may have been
walloped over in Anchorage but they
certainly got their revenge last nite.
It was the finest of hard fought
games from every angle and had the
fans gasping in every corner. The
judge's whistle, ending the game,
came as a vast relief for the Anchor
age cagers had, In the previous tilts,
proved themselves exceptional dan
gerouse in the last few minutes of
play.
In the forepart of the game it ap-!
peared as if the Inlet cagers had the
game sewed up but Captain Howard
and his brave lads upset the apple
cart much to the confusion of the ag.
gressive opposition.
Again proving himself the shiftest
player on the locals line-up young
Raymond was like an eel, darting al
most at will through the enemy lines
for points, the majority of which,
were really sensational. The Anchor
age boys admitted, after the game,
that they were practically helpless
against his tactics. Raymond is free
ly conceded to be the hero of the en
tire series and as such is receiving
just applause from all.
THE GAME BY QUARTERS
Raymond uncorked a dazzling field
shot; Guy missed a tough long shot;
foul on B. Snodgrass, Leslie convert
ed; Valaer fouled Hayes who missed
the throw. Valaer tossed in a beautiful
long field basket; Bill Snodgrass did
the same. Leslie fouled Me Kinnon
converted. Me Kinnon then made a
field basket for good-luck. Time out
for Seward. Leslie heaved in a peach
of a long throw. Double foul on Ek
and Guy missed ’em both. End of 1st
quarter, Anchorage 7, Seward 5.
SECOND QUARTER
Leslie fouled Valaer who convert
ed: Guy Manthey scored a field shot:
Hayes fouled B. Snodgrass who mis
sed the cage: Leslie fouled Valaer
who again converted. This chap was
certainly sharp-shooting. Me Kinnon
scored with a field throw. Ek fouled
Leslie who missed the throw but got
it 'back immediately for a basket in
a fast field. Valaer scored again. At
this point Seward called for time out
again to rearrange the defensive.
By clever exchange in passing Guy
rang up a basket. This was followed
by a like dexterous exchange Ray
mond scoring which ended the quar
ter with the score standing a tie, 13
all.
