Some of them will grit their teeth and swing away for an attempted home run even though the boss whispered to them that snappy sacrifice hit past shortstop would do the team more good
 But regardless of their independ- ence, when contract signing comes around they are a fairly amiable lot and if the chief says to them : Play away out" they will back far out into the outtield, and try to understand play the likes of which they never heard of before.

 Claude Erskina. Dougl g per. set the pace of the game l.st n Ft ai he led in an a8rrelsl 2 att k against the Bears. playing also the mainstay in the new All-Star triple passing attack.
 Triumphing in their finally-found team work, the All-Stars cooperated in passing with success not in dicating in their previous time. Dick May was back in form again as well as Claude Erskine, and the addi- ton of the two top-formers, to- gether with Lindstrom's eagle eye for shooting helped spell the High School defeat.
 High School Weak
 The All-Stars were in there checking when the High School started its hopeful drive, and up- setting of Bear set-ups was fre- quent The Bears were slow on guarding. with the exception of Buddy Brown, and though they managed to do the obvious in keep ing Smitty down, they failed to keep Erskine and Lindstrom from adding up their steady scores.
 Weak in their passing attacks, the High School was also off in shooting, despite a couple of nice shots from Hanson and DeVault, high point men. Lindstrom was high scorer for the All-Stars with 13 points, seconded by Smith with II.
 Skagway cn Top
 Skagway took the Douglas High School battle in stride last night after they really started playing in the second quarter The opening quarter looked favorable for Doug las. as the squad totaled three field goals to the Visitors one foul point, but their pace slowed down when Skagway turned on a more force ful checking defense.
 Selmer who out for the first part Of the game, and was held fair ly well under control by Douglas after he entered to start his ex- p2cted fast driving. Stan Smith kept up his record for good ball by shoot ing some excellent shots, and the surprise of the evening was the beautiful goal by Sparks toward the last of the third quarter.
