 pr. Stewart Patton, professor of phychiatricts, John s. Hopkins University, expressed the opinion that the moderate thinker has a greater expectancy of life than either the excessive drinker or the total abStainer.

Anchorage High School Wins Tilt
 Southwest Alaska

Anchorage high school won the championship basketball title for this part of Alaska when they took the last game last night from Seward high, score 24 to IT.
 The Scorekeeper posted the finals as 25 to IT but the press score showed 24 to IT.
 Seward started off at a cyclonic pace maintaining it up to the last of the third quarter 5'st from then on, the punch vanish ed To make a long story short it was case of too much Bob Carl son last night.
 This long, lean and lanky An ch0rage guard loomed up like Mt Mckinley midst scrimmages; out would pop an arm. or a gigantic stride and bang, another basket. Bob ran his points up to IS leaving but nine for his playmates. Of these Knapp showed over i, shadura 2, Bayer and Ted .i; it was a good thing this lat ter sharp-shootar was off his feed in begging as generally he has had been the ace in the hole for the visitors
 For Seward Ray Manthey led with points; Guy and Don 4 At times the passing of both teams was really brilliant but that of Anchorage more accurate and with greater consistency. The To- calls put up a strong game but not the flashy work exhibited in the afternoon game Guy and Ray both did some fast pass work for tries at the goal while Don, from the most difficult position on the floor, plunked two in from way off-Side
 Few fouls were called on either side but Ted finally was yanked and his brother, Odin, showed in. Aside for this lone substitution no changes were made in the line up of either squad.
 Dave Turner handled the game very well with Merritt Shellhorn aiding him on the side-lines. The hall was damned full with spectators and after the game a dance was held in Odd Fellows Hall. This morning the Anchorage lads left for home with the championship crown tucked away in their baggage.
