Owens-Cornine
Trips GasCo.
In League Finals

Overcoming a short lead in the
final moments of play, and blast
ing through an overtime period
to victory, Owens-Corning's fast
moving quintet wrestled the
YMCA industrial league cham
pionship from the Gas Company
last night in the high school
gymnasium. The final score
was Al to 38.
In an earlier game, United
Brethren clinched the church
league championship from Han
over, 25 to II.
1t was nip and tuck battle
that Owens-Corning and Gasco
players staged in the playoff for
the industrial crown. Cashing
in a good percentage from the
free-throw lane, and playing a
calm, aggressive game, the Gas
Company kept the play under
control until the final few min
utes when Owens-Corning over
came a three-point lead to tie
the game at 37-37. Owens-Corn-
ing gained possession of the ball
early in the overtime period, and
after cashing in for four points,
dominated play for the rest of
the time.
Owens-Corning had won the
first-round championship, and
then dropped second-round hon
ors to the Gas Company in a
Al to 80 thriller last Monday
evening.
Other games on the Monday
night bill included the champion
ship tilt for the women's title
between the Pharis Blue Aces
and the Vikings, the Vikings
winning handily "a to II; and
the exhibition of ghost basket
ball played between picked teams
from the church and the city
leagues.
Although rated the >underdog
in last nights contest, the First
U. B. basketeers were never in
danger as they romped through
Hanover for the church league
championship.

Two faces were close together;
the mans grim, tense; the other
face was small and white, with
two slender hands pressed
against it. 1t was those pale
hands that riveted the mans hor-
