HOW THEY STAND

In the top half of the double header basketball set-to last night in the Douglas High School gym be- tween the Juneau Fire Department quintet and the National Guard five, the Gastineau Channel League chalked up another red hot contest in it's roster when the Bremen were extended to the limit and had to put on all their fire-eating gear to stem the on-ruShing soldiers AS to 3l. The preliminary of the evening was won by the Eagles over the DeMolay squad 39 to 21
 The initial half of the Guard Bremen struggle looked like it was to be a walk k-away for the Red Hat boys when they bested the Guardsmen to at the end of the first quarter and g to II at the half-time marker.

RVISHES TO AID

KETCHIKAN. Alaska. Jan. 28- Coast Guard patrol ship Nemaha, which left here for Seattle at GOT o'clock last night, rushed to the scene of the northbound U. s. Army transport Kvichak which went on the Sisters Rock. about ll0 miles south of Ketchikan.
 The transport struck during heavy seas, according to calls for help.
 One radio last night from the transport intimated that waves were dashing over the ship, some water entering the radio room.
 The engines were reported stop ped and emergency power was re- sorted to, maintaining the batteries for B hours at least.
 A radio from the Nemaha said the craft was nearing the scene but had been forced to suddenly anchor on account of bad weather. The Me- maha said the anchor was dropped in Malacca Passage but if the weather lifted and she could pro- ceed she could reach the Kvichak early this afternoon.
 Radio advices indicated that boats were leaving Bella Bella to aid the distreSsedd transport.
 Grounded During Night
 As near as could be ascertained last night from eager radio reports, the Kvichak grounded at 1l:30 o'clock last night. She left Seattle Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock and carries 16 civilians enroute to An- nette Island Air Base, near Ketchi- kan. There are said to be several women passengers aboard.
 Capt. Williamson is commanding officer.

Island, is among the passengers on the Kvichah.
 Latest radio reports said there were 23 passengers aboard the transport and crew of g men. The Kvichak was carrying sup plies to AIa.ka defense bases and time of grounding is given as i0:33 o'clock last night on Sister Rock in FapIayson Chan mel, northern Queen Charlotte Sound.
 Ono report said tho kvichak had water up to the main deck when she struck the rocks.

HAGERUp LEADS

Bowling a high 606 for the evc- nings best pin play, Try Hagerup led his Cash and Carry keglers to a 3 to victory over the George Brothers squad in the Elks Club bowling alleys last night.
 The Cash and Carry team ended with total game score of l636 against the 1924 of the George Brothers.
 In spite of consistently good kcg- ling by the Juneau Drug. the Co., lumbia Lumber Company Squad took the DruggistS over the hurdles 3 to with only two men on the team. Bowler Hahn however, more than made up for his wifc's ab sence and augmented her average score to bring his team two games ahead of the opponents.

in the ,offing until midway in the third quarter, when new com bination for the Soldiers began to click Baskets in fast succession by Kloss, Dolinsky. Mclaughlin and Wiley put the Guardsmen within three points of their breaking opponents, when the quarter ended 31 to 26
 That was the nearest the Guards men came to the Red Hat boys. but it gave the crowd a real thrill when it sensed that an upset could easily take place and the fast pace the soldiers were setting looked like they might take the game.
 rtgnt 70 Deeai0ck
 Both teams fought to a deadlock 1 for the better half of the last quarter. matching basket for bas- kct long beauty of shot by Lindstrom gave the league leaders score of B to 26. Mclaughlin then pulled nice one out of the air and hit the steel hoop for two points. making it 33 to 28. which brought everybody to their feet, but that was the last serious threat the Guard five made.
 Here Tommy Powers and Schu- bert came to the rescue for the Fire Boys and baskets in quick succession brought the score up to 39 to 28. with less than two minutes to 90.
 The final score of the contest does not indicate the drive and passing both teams displayed. Although the first quarter was ragged game for the Guardsmen, they made up for it with exceptional play the re- mainder of the game, and when the final gun terminated the struggle, and the smoke cleared away. it stood 45 to 31 with the league-leading Fire Department on the long end of the horn.
 The improved playing of the Ma tional Guard basket tossers places that team as dangerous outfit. AL though it is out of the running for any championship hopes. it has good chance to dump some of the "biggies' in the ash can before this basketball season is ended.
 Eagles-DeMolay
 The first game in the evenings entertainment. although little rough, proved to be listless affair The Eagles, one of the speed squads of the Channel loop played the slowest game they have been in this year, and the DeMolav team was no better. The final score was 39 to 2l for the Eagles.
 Claude Erskine proved the point gathering expert in this contest with a total of nine, which indicates that most of the points for the Eagles was pretty we'll distributed.
 Both the Eagles and DcMolay missed lots of set-up. dropped many passes and hugged the ball too often to make the game thrilling. Prob ably one of the highlights of this game was the fact that the Eagles held the high-scoring "Kinky' Bay CTS down to seven points. Bayers broke loose many times but was unable to get any passes and too, he was checked and double checked by his opponents.
