 AT BASKETBALL
Lynn Canal Bunch Take Final Deciding Game
 by Score of 1922

In the closing quarter of last nights game, Skagway High School last night defeated Juneau High 29-22 to take the Northern Division Bas- ketball Championship of Southeast Alaska. Plenty of speed and thrills for the crowd jamming the High School Gym were dished up in the third and deciding tilt, but the visi- tors had most of the speed and their rooters from Douglas got most of the thrills in seeing Juneau bite the dust
 Two star forwards from up Lynn Canal, Hestnes and Selmer, and Guard Rapuzzi kept the game well to themselves; gathering 25 of their teams points and leaving the home five panting behind.
 Eleven Shots
 For four minutes the ball raced up and down the court and eleven shots trimmed the hoop or bounded off the backboards, before Hall put Juneau into the lead with the open ing basket of the game On a foul, Hestnes got one for Skagway; then three more minutes of hustling play before Selmer dropped one in to put Skagway into the lead Hall got another to make it 4-3 for the Crimson Bears just before the first quarter ended.
 Fast Playing
 A foul shot for Hestnes was fol- lowed by two nice baskets by Web ster for Juneau as the second quar- ter opened, and Juneau had it's big gest lead of the game, 8-4. But Skagway came right back, on one foul conversion for Selmer, three more for Hestnes, ana a field goal for Selmer in one minute of play With Skagway 10, Juneau 8, and four minutes to play in the first half, Juneau evened the count a couple minutes later on Scott's nice field shot,. but Hestnes shortly came back for Skagway to close the half at 12-10 for the visitors.
