To one who has seen but few basketball

fortunate in finishing but two points be-
hind their st. .JohnSbury rivals last eve

Whitney and Burn Dunlevy After
several unsuccessful attempts Sawin man
aged to elude the upstate boys defense
and he tailed the first double counter of
the game. Marshall came back with a
beautiful long shot into the hammock in
return Oakes found the hoop for one
more shot which put the locals back in
the lead After several close range shots
had missed the bullseye by foot or two
Jumbo nailed another basket for the
locals After Goslant got one point on
a free try shot Dumas came through with
nifty shot from the floor. Marshall also
got another one for the visitors. Two
free try tallies by Connors and Marshall
completed the scoring for the period for
ST Johnsbury. while Ramsey got one
more point for the locals on free shot.
The score for the period was OF in the
up-staters' favor
Sawin tied the count to open the second
period, but Connors and Marshall also
nailed a double counter each, so Plumb's
efforts went for naught. Sawin also tai
lied by the free try method during this
period for the locals, as did Goslant for
St Johnsbury. The count at the end of
the period stood II to 10 in favor of the
visitors.
In the third period the visitors got
away to a flying start, "Puss" Corners
talIying twice and Marshall once before
THE locals could connect with the hoop.
Cakes and II. Dunlevy came back with
two neat ones from the floor, while Ber-
nard also annexed two points from free
tries Marshall nailed the next one, but
two successful free try shots by Ramsey
and Joker made the totals read - to Is.
Just before the whistle blew to end the
game, Dowd, playing the last five minutes
of the game for Sawin, got Il neat basket
from the side, bringing the locals total
to 20.
This victory over the locals gives the
up-staters a still firmer hold on the state
basketball championship. as the locals are

Tense System Exeelled. - Cadets Get

The clever aggregation of hoopsters
from ST. Johnsbury, Company ID, got
way with 22-to-20 victory over the local
Athletics quintet in Festival hall last
night before a crowd of about zoo
fans. 1t was fast and holly contested
game, and the best team won.
The game was fast all the way, and at
no time did either of the competing teams
threaten to run away with an easy deci-
sion. Both teams displayed a real knowl-
edge of the fast passing game, while the
teams were about equally matched in
basket shooting ability. In the defense
system used. however, the Scale-town bas-
ket beavers seemed to have the edge on
the locals. Dumas played a star guard
game for st. JOhnsbuIy, holding the fast
Ramsey" Dunlevy down in a manner
that left nothing to be desired. Marshall,
the st. ]. center, was the big star of the
game his combination of floor work and
shooting being the best seen on the local
floor this season, with the possible excep-
ton of Dowd'S work against the locals
while playing for the Brightwood \. c,
team in their second game with the locals.
The Athletics played a good game all
the way. Time after time Burn" Dun
levy and Jumbo" Whitney would tear
down the floor only to lose the ball by
reason of st. Us sensational defensive
play. Sawin, Cakes and f. Dunlevy
played nifty basketball, but were kept
under cover by careful guarding. Dowd,
sstar Brightwood center. put up a fine ex-
hibition in the few minutes he was in the
game. Not only did the newcomer out
Jump Marshall at center, but he also fitted
in well in the locals team play.
