Culdesac Springs Surprise
Although Culdesac has been con-
sidered one of the foremost contend
ers they were not conceded all ad-
vance victory over Coeur d'Alene but
the Coeur d'Alene crew was handed
their third defeat this afternoon 2S to
II. Guarding was exceptionally tight
on both sides, Culdesac playing a
strong defensive game, opening up at
times with an offensive which Occur
d'Alene was unable to stop
Talbot, Coeur d'Alene captain, was
retired on account of personals short
" after the opening of the second
half and Wendt, Culdesac guard, also
obtained his maximum uuoaa of per-
sonals before the game ended =
Bradbury played stellar game for
the losing team while Captain Miles
steered his victorious team very ably.
The individual work of Miles was not
so noticeable for Coeur d Alene had
a pair of guards which kept close
watch on the Culdesac wizard. Miles,
however, made four field goals, the
highest individual record of the game.

Weston Drops Culdesac
Weston, the only southern Idaho
contender in the all-state tourney,
spoiled Culdesac aspirations by Win t
ming from the up-riyer team Friday
night 26 to 19, in one of the hardest I
games of the tournament. The teams
were evenly matched and fought I
hard, although Weston had a slight
edge on floor work Although the
Culdesac boys played much better
ball than that which gained them
victory over Moscow in the after
noon clash they were unable to
match the intricate work of the
southern team.
Culdesac opened the scoring often
siye and lead II to IL at the end of
half time, but Weston turned loose
reserve energy by the middle of the
period and had the score in their
favor
Miles, speedy Culdesac captain, and
iassman, Weston guard furnished
the individual thrills of the game
Both were the most consistent field
scorers for their respective teams
Iassman slipped away for seven
ieId goals, many of which were from
lifficult angles The dribbling of
Niles was a work of art III itself and
many of his baskets were the result ,

led extremely at the closing minu-
es of the game lest Culdesac should
Zip away for enough goals to tie the
core. Culdesac was going strong

ional play.
Both teams played strictly pass '
