| Finlayson won its first basketball
game of the season Friday night when
it took on Brook Park on the home
floor. The Finlayson team showed
the best offensive strength at the be-
ginning of the game than at any
other game this year. By making
most of their shots count they piled
up a comfortable lead early in the
first half, which ended rs to in
: favor of the home team. In the sec
J ond half most of Finlayson's substi-
tutes saw action and the game was
much closer fought one. The final
score was SO to 10 in Finlayson's
: favor. Bob Arth was the leading
scorer of the game, making field
goals with Lyle Bergseth next with
points. Much credit for the victory
: goes to the Finlayson defense, espec-
tally during the last half when they
: held the visitors from scoring a single
field goal. The visitors need great
deal of credit for their hard, clean
fighting throughout the game. Their
, right guard, Kampar, was leading
l scoring man for Brook Park. The
starting lineup was as follows:
