In last nights triple header, led off by an ElkS- Bremen tussle, a smoothly working quintet of lodge men opened the contest with what looked like an Elks victory, but lost leeway as the game got older and never closed the gap.
 In the first quarter, Elks came out ahead, 8 to 2, but the half ended 23-1o in favor of the smoke eaters. With Davlin hot" and May and Carmody both dropping one-handed push shots, however. the Elks mar rowed the Bremen lead to three points at the end of the third quar- ter. By that time, though, the Fire men had gotten into high gear and the game was no longer in question.
 The Elks were handicapped by the illness. of their number one guard, Gil DeVault.
 Jennings -Jayhi
 The second mix, between the High School and Jennings Cloth ing, was a case of too much range for the school squad, with Henning players playing a high passing game that kept the ball over the smaller teams heads.
 The Crimson and Bear combina- tion opened up with a fiery offense in the first quarter that made the older boys step to keep in the game and the High School led to 4 at the end of the quarter, but during the second couldn't find the basket for a single marker.
 The Henning team pulled farther and farther away then, with Schu- bert dropping the bulk of the points.
 Spark plug on the Jayhi squad was Tommy Powers, forward who shows promise of developing into a number one ball player for any body's league.
 School yells and the High School band lent color and support to the game, playing several numbers, and giving the Bears plenty of vocal sup port.
 Miners Krause
 Krause's loss to the Miners last night can be chalked up to lot of hard luck. although they never led the stronger aggregation.
 Miners led 10 to 2 at the end of the first quarter, 19 to IA at half time, and 28-17 at the end of the third frame, but Krause then turned on desperate rally that for a time threatened within two baskets of the Miner lead.
 "Set-ups" under the basket that just wouldn't stay in the hoop kept the Krause five carrying up the rear, and in the last five minutes of play. Bud Lindstrom began to find the net for the Miners with uncanny sight.
 Woody Wilson of Krause, led SCOT ing, however, with IA points.
