Halt Berlin By 27-1S
Score In Rough Game
Continued from Page One

from beneath the meshes by Mar
shall, Burns set the laces swaying
with a clean score that sunk unop-
posed through the rim. The Com
pany d chiefs shot was one of the
foul that the locals were able to
tally in the opening period, as com
pared to the three that Berlin
chGlked up.
The Granite Staters peppered
the hoop with long wild shots, verv
few of which found their mark.
There was little cohesion or team
work in their play, relying as they
did on individual effort.
After missing a free throw, Fitz
Marshall rushed up to the goal and
took the ball to send it through for
another local field score. Lucky
fisk's contribution from the side
OF the court was exactly sensa-
tional. The crowd broke loose
and cheered the effort.
Following the registration of
free-throws by J. Mckinney and
Burns, Howard Powers, the Berlin
left guard, unleashed long dis
lance heave from two-thirds the
way down the court. The ball shot
clearly through the iron rim. Fisk
came back with a field goal from
mid floor. Leavitt and Fisk were
guilty of fouling each other. but
only the latter could score the free
throw. Just before the gong
sounded, ID. Powers picked up the
ball beneath his own basket, dlib-
bed part way and then shot an
other very long arch into the bas-
ket. Comply d led II to 8.
Second Period
While Company d was running
up a total of IA points in this SEES
sion, Berlin could score but two.
Both of these came as the result Of
free throws at the hoop. Berlin
could tally no goals from the field
so close was the guarding TO which
that quintet was subjected.
Whitley Dumas received a pass
from Burns and directed high
arch into the hoop. Following
Burns tally of a free throw, Fitz
Marshall pulled off q great running
toss into the laces. The play sa-
vored of the great Tobey Mat
T thews game, which was such ft-
ting sequel to the court season last
year. Marshall scored free
+ throw.
The game was the toughest seen
at the Armory this year There
was some fine blocking and tack
ling. Referee Boisvert had his
hands full keeping one or two of
the visitors under restraint. H..
Powers offended particularly.
Lucky Fisk pranced into the
midst Of scrimmage beneath his
basket, emerging with the ball. 1t
took just a moment for him to aim
another perfect marker into the
basket. The battle ragged fercely
under the St. Johnsbury goal the
most of the time during this period.
Albert Goslant secured possession
of the sphere He broke loose from
the surge of basketeers, raced out
to scoring position and sent a
neat throw whirling through the
circlet.
Dumas, Marshall and Leayitt
each negotiated for free throws
and scored them. A feature of
the second period was the wonder
full dash by Fitz Marshall all the
way down the hall. The resulting
basket gave St. Johnsbury Is to
10 lead as the gong changed.
Third Period
The last stanza opened with j..
NcGivney's scoring two free
throws in succession. Dewey Pow
ers, the Berlin, left attacker, got
his hands on a loose ball beneath
his basket and scored the first goal
made by his five in nearly 10
minutes.
Berlin outscored the locals in
lIlt HIldl IJtIICu, Ism = lOi4S HHOL OIl
a pass from oCnnor being the only
St. Johnsbury field goal. H. Pow
ers' race, eliminating in basket,
was discounted by the referee who
ruled that Powers had leaped upon
the wall as he dropped in the ball.
Leavitt tapped in a score from
short range.
Company D literally rained shots
upon the hoop but they would
strike the inside of the rim and
bound out. Twelve minutes of
the last period had been played
end the locals had not scored 4
field goal.
Puss Conner got his first chance
in game this year when he took
Goslant's place in the closing mo-
ments of the game. 1t was Con-
ncr's clever pass to Fisk that re-
suited in the domestics' only field
goal in the stanza. Jim Foye went
in at left forward and Marshall re-
placed Burns at center just before
H. Powers goal marked the end
of the game 27 to IS in Company
IU's favor.
