better than steady.

foreign exchanges.

Smoke Eaters Break Win.
ming Streak of Colleg-
ians in Thrilling Game

The Juneau Flremen last night
broke the winning streak of the
Alaska College Collegians, win
ming a thrilling and at times
rough game by a single basket
As to 43. Three Firemen-Garn

Observation-Disclosures out via the
personal foul route.
The locals got the jump and
maintained a consistent lead OF
about 10 points from the first to
the end of the third period. In
the fourth, the Collegians rallied
strongly but lacked one BASKET OF
tying the score. They were shoot
ing desperately when the timers
gun ended the fray.
Take Lead Quickly
The Smoke-saters jumped away
in the lead and piled up a It's
score at the end of the first
period. They held this lead at
the halftime, 30-21. They in
creased it to IL points at the enc
of the third period, 1880.
Then things began to happen
earn went out on fouls. Orme
who had been taken out in the
first period with three personals
against him, replaced Abby and
lasted just two plays when he
too, went to the showers by the
same route. Meyer followed quick
ly, leaving only Holman, Blake
and Jensen of the first string on
the floor. Jensen and Blake
had three personals on them and
Holman two.
The Collegians came to life
and staged an offensive that kept
the play under the basket a large
part of the time. Led by Brandt
and Franklin, as sweet a scoring
and defensive guard as has been
seen here in many days, they pep
pered the cage from every possible
angle. Five field goals and three
on free throws gave them 13
points while the Firemen, closely
checked, chalked up but one each
for three points.
Brandt Again High
Brandt was again the high
scorer. He Gagged six from scrim-
mage and four on free throws
for total of Is points. earn
and Franklin tied for second with
IL points each. Holman and
Blake were close runnersup and
tied for third with IL each.
The Colleges record, even with
the loss of this game is notable
1t has played IA games since leav-
ing home, winning IL of them and
losing but two. The squad will
leave here on the steamer Yukon
tonight.

badly beaten at the end of the

back in the second half and out
scored the DeMolays by wide
margin.
At the half the local five led
