ball quint under the leadership Of
Coach Harvey turned in a good ac-
count when they defeated Upsala
decisively % to IA. The locals lead
all the way. and it was not the
contest that Upsala gave us when
they invaded our court earlier in
the season. One Of Upsala's guards,
Mason, a clever ball player, was
out of the game i'll, and another,
their regular center was missing
from the lineup.
keldahl got the tip off consist
emily throughout the game. On the
first play three passes hinged across
the floor putting Scanlon in scor-
ing position. He was fouled on the
shot, and Melted one point. schultz,
Upsala guard. scored two free
shots, and Dubois scored two for
the locals to take the lead by 3 to
2. The first few minutes Of the op-
ening quarter were marked with
heavy fouling. Upsala opened up
with plenty of fight, but they were
unable to connect with the basket.
keldahl sunk the first goal of the
game and Scanlon followed him in
quick succession. The quarter end
ed in the local favor z to 2.
Keldahl again scored in two nice
passes from Scanlon to Dubois to
Keldahl. Scanlon took the ball fast
on an out-of-bounds play and reap
ed a goal. Schultz and Holmen, Up
sala, scored two more free shots,
and Thompson captured their first
field goal. Scanlon and Keldahl
came back to score two more field
goals, and the half was ours with
the score 16 to 6.
The third quarter witnessed the
big Upsala drive of the game
Thompson and Holmen scored goals
while the locals seemed to have
been taking a rest. Coach Harvey
had some substitutions, Arvig and
o. Carpenter relieved Scanlon and
Dubois. Arvig came through with
a nice goal, but Bacon covered it
up with goal for Upsala. The 10
Gals banged the bangboard but to
no avail; they could not connect.
The third quarter ended and was
awarded to Upsala as they closed !
the 10 point lead to only 7 points, |
and scored 6 points to only 8 for
the Sank Centre lads. The score |
stood 10 to II.

made a comeback and went into |
their stride. Dubois scored a free
throw for the third in succession. /
Kelly and Dubois missed three set
ups right under the basket with
the Upsala lads looking on at the
other end of the floor. Before
either could then score the thumb
ering herd was upon them. Keldahl
covered shot that Sanction missed
and sunk it for goal. Dubois fol-
lowed in rapid fire succession with
two field goals with some nice pas
sing exhibited. In this period Coop.
er relieved Bud Carpenter and
turned in a good report as substi-
tute guard. KelG ahi carried off the
last goal and the game ended with
the locals in the lead % to IA.
The game got little rought at
last, but the excitement and the
valiant effort Of Upsala to close the
gap between the scores may ac-
count for it. The local subs made a
good showing in ball handling.
They didn't seem ratified, and pas.
sed me ball coolly. Keldahl came
in with high score honors with II
points, and Scanlon showed q good
scoring squirt in this game with 5
points. Keldahl is a tall one, and
s able to get in there on the COW
er and Is pretty handy with that
pivot shot. Passes come into him
lust right from the guards and
forwards. The Upsala offence is
Crossing the floor in
Jack Of the guards, the forward at
empt to pull the opposing defence
o one side and out in the center
# thecourt. Then they cut for the
,asket but the locals had them
'ottled up to good extent Tuesday
