when it returns to competition
against st. Marys of Portland to-
morrow night.
1t was Fred Saunders. brother ct

hiesfight in the quintet's success. He
tossed in eight field goals and a foul
goal for II points. Andy Yakubowitz
made five field goals. but It was not
the scoring of these two individuals
which featured the game. it was the
clock-like work of the team. When
Joe Jasper went into the game ID
the second half he fitted into the
lineup very satisfactorily.
The Capital City team did not
show much. Dalton the center wsrk-
