The Final Contest
The Scots got off to a slow start
in the Glasgow-Dawson game ana
at the quarter we're behind 8 TO 3.
Then Farrell dropped in a free
throw, only to have lander retaliate
with an easy layup. Bundy pushed
in a shot from the center, Hagen
ston counted on a free throw, n
then came the deluge.
Mann made a free throw and then
scored on a long shot from the front
court. williams netted two points
from the side and then Bundy tied
the ball game up with a free throw
and a moment later put the High
landers ahead with another gift
shot. Just before the period ended
Keller tied it all UP with free shot
and the halftime score was 10 all:
Dawson went ahead briefly at the
start of the half. Hughes counted
on a long shot and then lander
dropped in a free shot. Mann replied
with a free throw and was followed
by Bundy who tied the game up
again with a nice layin. Hammer
ness counted a long shot, took ad-
vantage of a PERSONAL foul for
another point and a few moments
later netted another goal from the
front court. Hagensten made good
on a free throw and the quarter
ended with Glasgow on the long
end of a 21-17 score.
Bundy opened the final stanza
with two consecutive buckets and
Selman followed through for one
for Glendive. Frankie Holland drop
ped in n from right under the
basket and Bundy connected with
a gift shot to give the Scots a 8
point lead. Trying to get back in
the game. the Red Devils counted
on Zander's laying and again a few
minutes when Keller broke through
the Highlanders' stalling to tally
two more points. Then Zander con-
nected on two consecutive gift losses
as Bundy and Farrell both left the
game on personals.
With the Red Devils trying des-
perately to score and the High
landers trying as hard to stop them,
Ole Hammerness intercepted a
Dawson pass, drove half the length
of the floor and cut in under the
basket for a beautiful two points
that put the game on ice. Just before
the gun went off Holland, standing
all alone under the basket, took a
long pass and tucked it in.
Two Glasgow players wound up
their scholastic careers in a blaze
of glory Saturday night when Otto
Bundy and Bob Williams ended the
game with Dawson. Bundy's II points
paced the Highlander and he was
of the whole Scotty Of
Tense. williams played a beautiful
defensive game and he was also
instrumental in setting up several
Glasgow scores.
Glasgow 10, Custer Al
The Scots didn't seem to know
what to do with the ball in their
opening contest with custer county
Of Miles City Thursday night. This,
coupled with inability to stop Rask,
towering custer center, spelled in
eyitable defeat for the Glasgow boys.
Otto Bundy was the only shining
light in the Highlander squad as
ne bucketed 4 field goals and 4 free
for IL points. Playing like
1ovices, the Scots threw wild passes, {
'umbled away scoring opportunities
and missed easy shots, most OF
which can be attributed to nervous
hess.
A storybook feature was the tired
clock. The plug was knocked out
and the clock did not function at $
Ill during the first part of the flnal ]
The sound of the timers buzz
.er for a substitution and a look at
he inactive clock gave officials the ]
impression that the game was over. !
Players trooped to the dressing I
'ooms with the score 36-15. A fan ]
the clock however and !
this to notice Of the OF
Players were brought back I
N the floor to finish the game at Al /
l9 for Custer.
Glasgow 80, Sidney As
The Highlanders again got off to I
4 poor start Friday night and !
took an 8-3 lead at the
quarter, extended it to 1920 at the
lalf and to 1885 at the third
quarter. The third quarter found
he Scots coming to life as they
matched the Eagles shot for shot I'LL
he final gun.
The first three quarters were again 8
by sloppy play, but in the !
inal the Glasgow boys snapped out :
# their trance and went to work =
or the first time in the tourney. q
outstanding for the Scots was Far :
