CALVARY CACERS
TO PLAY Y.M.C.A
Teams to Meet in Return En-
gagement Thursday Night;
Juniors Seek Game

One of the best basketball games
of the local season is expected
Thursday night when the Y.M.C.A.
Varsity squad en%tertains the strong
Calvary Independent team on the
''Y" court.
Both teams have good records for
the season thus far but the Cal
varyites are given an edge by virtue
of an earlier win over the triangle
quintet. In that contest, the North
siders put on a scoring burst in the
final quarter to win, after three
quarters of very tight basketball.
The "Y'' team will be looking for a
win to wipe out the memory of that
defeat.
Calvary boasts two high scoring
threats in Billiard and L. McKoy
and is also well fortified in the de-
fensive department of the game
bv such guards as Edens, Plyant,
G. McKoy and others. This COM
bination has carried the team tc
wins over several teams from the
area surrounding Wilmington.
In the Y. M. C. A. camp, Tommy
North has led the scoring during
most of the season., while the de-
fensive play of Stein, Won Oesent
Davis and Merritt has been out
standing. Merritt has been lost tc
the squad, leaving a hole at guard
that will be difficult to fill. Nisbet,
Gieschen and Williams alternate at
center and forward positions.
The Y. NJ. C. A. Junior team is
attempting to arrange a preliminary
game with the Southport High
school five, this game to begin at
7:45 o'clock. In the event these ar
rangements are completed, the Var
sity game will begin about 8:45, 9TH
erWise it viii! begin at 500.
Tickets for the game may be Sc
cured from members of either of
the teams involved.

Isn't Afraid
About the only thing that's been
in Burman's favor is the fact that
he isn't afraid Of the Brown Bomber
and Jack Dempsey has said that he's
the best heavyweight around the
fight alley.
Dempsey told US that Burman is a
hard puncher. has a good style and
knows how to handle himself. de
said that the Baltimore boxer should
make things interesting for Louis.
Well, at any rate Burman is going
10 fight like Dempsey and Max
Schmeling. Dempsey didn't get the
chance, but Der Max did k. o. Louis
one night back in 1886.
Golden Glovers
And while on the subject Of fight
ing, we're advising you to get set
for the Golden Glove festivities in
about two weeks.
From Lumberton will come anoth-
er strong team of scrappers repre-
senting The Robesonian and Carroll
Wilson tells u that his Roanoke Ra-
bids boys can battle with the best.
New entries yesterday included
Tom Newman, 173-pound Open divis-
ion boxer from Roseboro, and Roth
we'll Simmons, 150-pound Novice box
err from Southport.
Simmons is a brother of Johnnie
Simmons, who has already entered
the meet. Johnnie says his brother
has never participated in a tourna-
ment before but that he's getting
ready for this one.
Odds And Ends
A note from Jake Wade, sports
editor of the Charlotte Observer, that
the Carolinas Golden Gloves tourna-
ment to which the winners here will
be taken, Is shaping up fine.
John Derr has succeeded Gus Leon
ard as sports editor of the Green's
boro Daily News, with Smith Bar
rier, one time contemporary of ours
in Concord, coming in as assistant.
Charlie Stapleton, Goldsboro's
swimming coach, not only took his
prize pupil, Prince Nufer, to the
league Memorial banquet in Green's
boro Monday night, but his entire
team of mermaids. A year ago
New Bern in the Coastal Plain league
sold ALT Anderson to Atlanta for ST.
500. ... A few weeks ago Atlanta
sold the promising young rookie to
the New York Giants for $4,000. -.
And with a little more coaching we
believe Roy Lamb, former High
school and Pirate hurler, will stick
in the Bi-State league. -. Tennessee
didn't see enough of the Boston
Eagles in the Sugar Bowl, SO they've
scheduled them for next fall. +.
The Vols will also play Furman in
1871. It looks like Durham, Ra-
leigh and Wilson in the first division
of the Eastern Class A conference
cage race, with Rocky Mount, Fay
etteville and Wilmington rounding
out the standings.

l4,OOO Nazi Air Troops Involved In Battle Crete

UNDATED, May p (P) - Ger many's aerial invaders, striking in unabated fury, secured a "sec- ond temporary foothold" on the Isle of Crete, the British Middle East headquarters acknowledged. The Nazi sky soldiers were said to have gained a footing in the Malemi sector, Is miles south of Canea, Crete capital, where King George established his govern ment when the Nazi military juggernaut swept Greece.
 A British communique said, however, that the British fleet had broken up German attempts to land troops at Crete from the sea, in the three-day- old con- fiict. German conveys were dis perSed or sunk" the British head quarters said, adding, the losses among the Nazi chute and air borne troops were even heavier than before. The communique said By nightfall ths situation was satisfactory in every area e@cept Malemi and in that sec tor operations to deal with the Germans are now in progress"
 German reports previously in- dicated that the British fleet swung into action to defend Crete, and asserting that the Luft waffle, aided by Fascist torpedo planes, damaged a British battle ship, six cruisers and a destroy CT in the Eastern Mediterranean.
 The British radio said the Ger mans might now be drawing on second air-borne division, making 14,000 Nazi troops involved in the momentous struggle. An admit ted possibility also was that the Germans might be attempting to land tanks from boats.
 In Berlin, the Nazi spok kesman challenged the British reports of big German losses in the con- Aict, declaring "We will tell the whole story soon and the world then, may judge what actually was accomplished in that region of the Mediterranean"

HULL RECOMMENDS
 HIGHWAY TO ALASKA
 AS DEFENSE MEASURE
WASHINGTON, May g (P)

WASHINGTON, May g (P1 - The immediate construction of a $25,000000 highway from the United States to Alaska, approXi- mately 1,600 miles long, as pre- caution against invasion from Si- beria, was recommended by Sec retary of State Hull
 In the Alaska Highway R.port, made public, Magnuson said Rus sia, if so disposed, could attack from existing bases in Siberia. Accompanied, by maps and des- criptions, the report said supplies could be transported over the new road from Prince George to Fairbanks in 60 hours. Sven to eight days are now required for the trip.
 The report, intended to aid the State Department in negotiating a treaty with Canada to construct the road, called attention to the tsntative understanding between Japan and Russia.
 In discussing the possibility of a1 invasion from Siberia, the re port said Russia has been on many sides in the past year and today she has affected tentative understanding with Japan. With such an alliance, while it is im- probable, it is possible that AL aska could ba invaded from Asia, 50 miles away. Troops could in wade Alaska from half a dozen existing bases in Siberia or ad- jacent to that territory, or pro- ceeding from the Archangel, by newly determined Siberian Arctic coastal route. The U. s. Navy, without h-avy ice break CTS, would be powerless to pre-

 The report described Alaska as extremely isolated and depend ent altogether upon outside re- sources for its existence. The re- port said the commission believed the road could be built in Is to 20 months.
 "AlaskanS feel that once cut off by sea, thy would be powerless to resist an enemy and they feel that such a catastrophe can oc- cur and feel that the full force of our navy may be deflected in the defense of the Atlantic coast, Hawaii, or the Philippines. !"
