ing on the floor, calling for help
as clouds of smoke poured from

CLASS TOURNEY IS
| WON BY JUNIORS
Defeat Frosh in Finals
At High School
Gymnasium

Inter-class championship of Car

quintet of Junior basket tossers
after the final games played yes
terday afternoon in the high school
gym. The Juniors won from the
Freshman team by a score of 49,
IL, and the Sophomores defeated
the Seniors in a game that ended
1920.
Personal fouls and free throws
were the deciding factors in the
Junior-Frosh game, the Juniors
converting seven of the free shots
for a margin over the first-year
men. Dimich made five free throws
good for points while Brown and
Laughney each sunk one. Haa-
visto and Dimich led the scoring,
although the Juniors missed a
number of easy. shots that should
have boosted their score higher.
Starters on the Junior team
were Haavisto, Dimich, Brown,
Laughney, and CUISINE, with Mar
chello and Jarvi also seeing action.
Liedes, Grusonik, Niemi, Starko-
vich and Jurkovich started for the
Frosh. Brown was in the game
long enough to contribute to the
score and Mlekush was also used
In the Senior-Soph game, per-
sonal fouls popped up almost as
fast as in the first game, although
comparatively few of the result
ing free throws were made good
for points. Laughney sunk three
complimentaries for the Sopho-
mores, and Nyback one for the
Seniors, coming through also with
one field goal.
Gregory, Karjala, Peterson, and
Heikkala all connected with the
basket to hoist the Senior score,
but sharpshooting by the Sopho-
more outfit, and particularly Lau-
ghney, kept the Soph score higher.
