offensive thrust.

contest when Buckley dropped in long

LAWRENCE GOODRICH
LEAGUE SCORING ACE
Member of Ranger Quint Tops
Scoring Column in City
League Basketball.

Lawrence Golobich, forward playing
with the Rangers, led the scorers in the
city basketball league schedule which
was completed here last week when he
registered a total of 103 points in IA
games. This does not include the play
off games in which the Rangers,
Gophers. Italians and Hawkeyes took
part. Strange as it may seem, the
Gophers, who won the city champion
ship, had only one man among the first
ten high scorers and that player ranked
tenth. However, the consistency of the
Gophers' attack and scoring power is
shown in the fact that five members
of the title winning quint are listed
between the first ten and twenty scorers
in the loop.
The ten leading scorers in the league,
including Golobich, are: Arnold Riikola,
CCC 704, 80; Fred Petrich, Arrowheads,
90; Ted Passi, Italians, 80; Frank Mix

ELY DOESN'T AT
DISTRICT TOURNEY
Champion Virginians Defeat
Locals in Opening Game
by 20 to IA Score.

Defeating Ely, 20 to IA, in the first
round game on Wednesday night, the
Virginia high school basketball team
downed Mountain Iron, q to Is, in the
semi-finals Friday, and then turned in
a surprise Is to 10 victory over Gilbert,
Saturday, to annex the 9th district
high school basketball championship.
The Queen City five plays Keewatin,
28th district champs, in the first round
of the Seventh Region tournament at
Hibbing tomorrow night. The other
entries in the regional tourney are
Carlton and Lndstrom-Center City.
Although not conceded much of a
chance of getting anywhere in the
district tournament held at Virginia last
week, the Ely high basketball quint
turned in a creditable performance
against Virginia in the first round of
the tournament by holding the Queen
City five to the low score of 20 points
while gathering IA on their own ac-
count. 1t was the lowest score regis
tered by Virginia in three tournament
games.
The Ely-Virginia tilt in the district
games, while labelled by Virginia and
Duluth daily papers as drab and
listless contest, was nothing of the sort
in a basketball sense as both teams
displayed defensive game that was
near to being perfect. Naturally, the
offensive part of the game suffered
somewhat as both teams stressed de-
fensive tactics with the result that each
team played cautious ball and waited
for the breaks. But when the breaks
presented themselves, there was a fast
drive for the basket with a series OF

the winners counted two of their goals
on rebound shots.
Ely was dwarfed by the bigger Vir-

Firms Install Air
Conditioning Plants

Acknowledging is the trend in
Redwood Falls this year. Charles
Wagner of the Mint cafe was a
pioneer in the field with a COOL
ing system of his own invention
which is operating for the fifth
season. Air is washed by a spray
of water and is then drawn by a
rotary fan through fine copper
screens which remove the mois-
ture.
The Louise shop has a Golden
rod air-conditioning unit in very
successful operation. The system
regulates the temperature and
humidity in both the main floor
and balcony beauty shop, remov-
ing moisture from the air which
is always fresh.
Lauterbach brothers have also
installed a Goldenrod system and
are using two units for their lar
ger establishment.
An air-conditioning system re-
Gently was installed at the Paris
shop for cooling both the beauty
shop downstairs and the ready
to-Wear department. The Pease
Heating and Plumbing company
put in the unit which also regu-
lates humidity.
A Frigidaire system is used in
the o. A. Knudson jewelry shop
and the DR.. M. P. Feigal dental
offices. The establishments, which
are in the same building each
have units of their own. Jaehning
