SCORES LAST NIGHT Juneau Hi 48; Douglas Hi q Imperials 59; ACS g

Juneau High Schools Crimson Bears met the Douglas High School Wolves for the first time this sea- son, and defeated them easily. Everybody got in the act for Ju- neau, and almost every man made at least one point.
 The Wolves right at the start looked as though they might have a chance, But Juneau soon found the range on the strange court, and .lacked up II points before the quarter horn, while Douglas got only g.. Tn the second quarter, Coach Avrit sent in his second string; but Douglas couldn't hold Juneau down, and with two min utes left in the half, Ayrit sent in scine third string subs. Douglas got 5 poets that quarter but Ju- 'neau counted 10, mabilg the score at alf-time 24 to 2.
 Douglas fought hard, but they could not make a go of it against the rampaging boys from Juneau in fact. couldn't even seem to hit tie basket when it looked easy. In the third quarter Avrit again sub stituted freely, and Douglas picked up a bit. They managed to snatch seven points, but Juneau picked up another IT.
 The fourth saw Douglas still fighting, with Juneau High easing up; and only seven points were added by the Crimson Bears, to six for the Wolves, for the final score of 48 to 21.
 High point man for the game was Mccormick of Douglas, with l2; for Juneau it was O'Connor, with 8. Seven fouls were called against Douglas. and 10 against Juneau.
 Imperials WailOp ACS
 Second game of the evening saw the Imperials wallop the ACS men with a high score of 59 to 29. ACS never had a chance against their hard-p,aying, sharp-shooting op- ponents. It was to If at the end of the first quarter. and g to Il at the half, in spite of ACS sub stitutes.
 In the third quarter, Pasquan and Company went on a shooting spree to sink IS points while al- lowing only seven for the ACS. The Imperials added another 18 tallies in the final quarter, while ACS sank eight. Only disappointment for the winners was that they couldn't pass 60. which was the score they were aiming for the last quarter Jack Pasquan, high SCOT ing man for any game so far this season, sank 10 field goals and one free shot for total score of 21 points; runner-up Kearney, also of the Imperials, had 14 points. Uher and Porter each made eight points for the ACS.
