WIN OVER THE
With Powrie going last night the
way that Powrie should go and with
the splendid support from the balance
of the team, especially Dick Leahy,
the Veachers won over Sherwin
I Painters on the local basketball court
by the score of 26 to 20. By winning
last night’s game the Veachers are
60-50 with the Painters, each having
won two games, with three more to
play.
Anyone at all skeptical in regard
to the popularity of basketball in
Anchorage should disabuse their
mind, for the game has finally found
a home.
As a referee Mangan towers above
| his predecessors as a mountain to a
molehill. Mangan follows the ball
with the eye of an eagle and watches
every play and does not hesitate to
j penalize the offending player, but
! should watch the personal foul ruling
a little closer.
The score in last night’s game see
sawed back and forth through the 40
minutes, with the Painters two points
in the lead at half time. This was
evened early in the second half and
again tied and so on till the close of
play when the Veachers forged two
points ahead due to the prowess of
Powrie who shot the basket. Leahy
put the game on ice on the very next
play and Powrie salted it down by
two free tries.
Dick Leahy played a great shoot
ing game and made seven baskets
from the field and one from the foul
line. Knutson, his opponent, left the
way open time and again, and Dick,
like Napoleon, took advantage of the
opportunity. Fouls were frequent,
Veachers charged with 10 and Sher
wins with 20. Henkle made six of
his chances count and also shot three
field baskets. Powrie and Leahy
scored eight out of a possible 20.
Veachers made nine field baskets to
their opponents, seven. Henkle and
Engle played the star game for their
team and were in every play and
worked consistently. Engle’s floor
work was fast and clever and often
resulted in points. The Painters ex
celled in team work and passing,
they pulled some fast, accurate work,
only to be checked at the crucial mo
ment. In fact both teams checked
and guarded remarkably well last
night, and this accounts for many
missed shots from the floor.
In passing from bounds the Veach
ers were also outclassed, as the
Painters got away with the pass re
peatedly where they were able to
block their opponents on the same
plays. The switch of Powrie to cen
ter was a wise move and also Captain
j Veach showed headwork by not
changing the position of his men dur
ing the game as he did in Sunday’s
game.
After these few kind remarks the
game in detail follows:
Engle scored first basket with the
aid of Costello. Leahy duplicated af
ter blocking a pass and made free try
but missed the next one immediately
following. Leahy checked Sherwin.
Leahy missed free try. Knut recov
ered and bored a path across the
court. Henkle and Powrie missed on
double foul. Gubert passed from
bounds to Leahy who shot a great
basket from the side line. On three
free tries Powrie counted two. Nich
olls went in for Costello. Henkle
made free basket. Sherwin to Knut
scored from the field.
Nick, Knut and Sherwin displayed
some clever team work, but were
checked by Trachsel. Henkle scored
from foul line and Powrie missed on
double foul. Painters were playing!
by far the best team work and Hen
kle evened the score by hitting the
bull’s eye from the red line. Powrie,
Veach, Engle and Sherwin all missed
good chances to count owing to clev
er checking. Leahy missed free try.
Nick blocked Powrie and Engle check
ed Leahy. Henkle made free try.
Both sides played fast towards the'
close of the half and George Aumann
marked up nine for the painters when
Henkle scored the final point. The
other side of the score board showed
that the Veachers were two points
behind at half time.
At the commencembent of the sec
ond half Leahy caged the goal that
evened the score after a clever pass by
Veach. Knut recovered and passed to
Henkle who shot a basket. Powrie
checked Knut in the nick of time. En
gle brought down the house by a great
shot from the side line. The bail
passed back and forth on several plays
when Knut recovered and passed to
Henkle who shot the longest basket of
the game. Powrie scored one from
foul line. Powrie shot from bounds
across court to Leahy who caged the
goal. Just to prove that this play was
not accidental they duplicated on the
next few plays. Powrie evened up the
score by counting from foul line, but
Henkle again put his team in the lead
by the same feat. Kemembering his
biblical teachings Powrie went and did
likewise and the score was even for
the steenth time. Gubert checked
Sherwin; Nick checked Traschel and
so and so on for play after play with
the score even up. Knut broke away
from both Veach and Powrie and
caged a goal. Henkle missed two
from foul line.
The Veachers pulled their real team
work of the game when Traschel re
recovered from Nick and passed to
Leahy at the opposite side of the court
who immediately passed to Powrie at
the end of the court and Powrie even
ed the score by smothering the basket.
Powrie made two free tries in succes
sion. Veach recovered and passed to
Leahy who shot a field basket. Leahy
missed free try. Traschel passed to
Leahy across the court and Dick de
livered. Powrie made free try. Hen
kle missed on same play. Engle and
Sherwin did some fast execution on
the floor and Engle passed to Henkle
who caged the final goal from the
field. Powrie made free basket, but
missed the next one. With the ball
changing hands most every play and
both teams checking playing strong
the whistle blew and the game ended,
Veach 26; Sherwin 20.

ball game last night ended 8 to 6 in
favor of the former. With the score
tie and only 20 seconds to play Mer
ry, playing center for the Cleaners,
won the game for her team by a re
markable play that has only been
made once before on the local court
and never in Seward.
Referee’s ball at south basket and
on the toss-up Merry cleverly knock
ed the ball in the basket and won
the plaudits of the entire crowd of
interested spectators.
Both teams played well last night
and similar to the men’s game it
was considerably in doubt until the
grand finale. Park of the Commis
sion played for the High School.
The two centers played the game
of their teams. Merry scored seven
of the eight points that her team
counted and Denton counted the en
tire six for her team.
Both Purvis and Harmon again
played a fast, flever game and broke
up many a combination.
Denton scored from foul line just
at end of first half that ended 3 all.
Second half was hard fought and
both teams displayed good floor work.
With the ball in play Purvis checked
Kincaid. Merry got away for a shot,
but missed. Denton put her team in
the lead by basket from the foul line.
Harmon checked Merry and saved a
possible basket. Merry evened the
score by free basket. Denton checked
several plays and Dalton was fast on
the floor. Park missed easy chance
to count.. Park passed to Denton
who also missed basket but came back
on the next play after receiving the
ball from Taylor and caged the coal.
Dalton missed free try. Dalton pas
sed to Merry from bounds and Merry
caged a pretty goal that evened the
score.
Merry checked Denton and Denton
checked Merry. Barnett playing
guard recovered time and again and
immediately passed to her team
mates. With the score even and only
20 seconds to play Merry- made the
play above referred to that won the
game that ended Cleaners 8, High
School 6.

ALASKA LABOR UNION
UNANIMOUSLY OPPOSES
CAPITAL PUNISHMENT
The following resolutions were
unanimously adopted last night at
the regular weekly meeting of the
Alaska Labor Union that was largely
attended:
Whereas, it is coming to be a well
! recognized fact in the scientific world
that murder is the result of abnormal
or subnormal mentality, and that any
persons who takes the life of another
is not a rational being and should re
ceive proper care, and treatment, and
Whereas, in the conflict that is
growing more and more intense be
tween organized capital and organized
labor, the latter members are often
made the victims of the revenge of
the master class whose leaders have
no hesitancy in railroading innocent
men to the gallows,
Therefore, in defense of our rights
as human beings and as a safeguard
against an irreparable injury and in
justice being done any of our class, be
it hereby
Resolved, That the Alaska Labor
Union in regular meeting assembled,
with a membership of over 1,900 in
good standing, go on record as being
opposed to capital punishment, and be
it further
Resolved, that we demand, that the
Alaska Legislature repeal the Terri
torial Act sanctioning capital punish
ment,
Resolved, that copies of this resolu
tion be sent to the Alaska territorial
legislature, and that it be published
in the Daily Times and the Alaska La
bor News.
