ents avenged a last week defeat,
downd the Firemen 81 to At in an
overtime clash. Tied at 43 at the
end of the regular playing time the
Independents poured it on in that
frantic five-minute overtime to
build up a four point lead to win.
It was Pat Dubois, long main
stay in the offensives of the indie
pendents, who built up the sweetest
total Of the evening when he drop
ped nine field goals and enough
free throws to gain % points. Add
ed with Rasmussen's II points, the
two took between them 40 points.
For Alexandria it was Penner for

Then Osakis moved in to dominate
the attack and with quick thrusts
brought the scoring even again. Lo-
cal foul shots paced the scoring
ended the third quarter tied at IL
all.
A triple pass affair netted Conkey
one of his final quarter buckets.
Playing deep under the basket,
Conkey took the third pass in an at
tack that figured Walker and Pang-
burn on the preceding passes. Con-
key scored on a tip in. Spaulding,
Osakis forward, connected with
one. Conkey and Blume split on
foul shots. Blume closed the gap
with a bucket and the game moved
into its frenzied last minutes as the
locals strove to cinch a winning
lead. Conkey was the lad who made
the final bucket to put the locals
into their three point game win
ming lead.
A slow moving first half found no
fouling. 1t was a negligible factor
throughout the entire game. In the
middle of the third only two fouls
had been committed. And even in
the fast moving fourth when two
teams battled to win, fouling was
not a considered proposition.
Spurred by the fact that Osakis,
here with a veteran club and de-
feat for the locals would mean the
first in eight years, the locals were
a different team Friday evening.
They carried the attack torch all
the way, set their own pace, were
in shooting position time and again.
The only time Osakis got the ball
in the first quarter was on q wild
pass, and then were unable to keep
it long. But the inability of the To-
Gals to shoot is still their big prob
lem.

At the end Of the first quarter
the locals trailed 8 to A, had moved
to threatened tie position at the
end of the second quarter still trail
ing to 8. Pulling up in two quar-
tiers to tie the Osakis early game
squirt, 1t was Hildebrands third
quarter bucket that launched the
locals into the lead. Fouling was
heavy and buckets were few as the
game moved furiously into the
fourth quarter. The game was won
