The Northeast Cape All Stars, aided by a frigid second half on the part of the Nanook shooting beat the Nome High School squad 5O-32. I iG "2i."
 The Nanooks attack, spearhead- ed by lanky Steff Andersen, func- toned well in the first half, where the school kids Jagged only by 4 points. In the second half, the CTS attack functioned smoothly while the kids begged down and scored only 13 points in the two final quarters.
 Topping the Northeast Cape scoring were Mullens with IA and Eastman with To- Leading the Nanooks were Steff Andersen with II, and Ron Locke with 9. Special praise was reserved for Cannon and Locke, both of whom did a bang-up job on defense, holding the Cape's two top scorers down.
 The general run of the game was a case of just too much ex- perience against too many mis- takes. The green Nanooks simply made too many errors, that the boys from St. Lawrence Island capitalized on to convert into bas- ketS.
 The next game for the Nanooks will be to tangle with the high flying Polar Hornets who are lead ing the City League. This game is scheduled for Friday, Jan. 4, following the game between the Jaycees and ANB.
