Where he was held to three points
In the first half, the hustling guard,
without a doubt one of the smooth
est floor men In the league, went
to town to the tune of 13 markers
in the second half.
It was Erskine’s long shot, with
seven minutes to play in the third
quarter, that tied things at 23
all. It was Erskine's long shot, with
four minutes in that period to go,
which knotted the count at 25-all.
Then, after both teams had staged
separate rallies and, with eight
minutes to go in the final canto, it
was Erskine’s cripple—after a long
pass down the floor from Art
Burke — which put the George
Brothers team ahead, 33 to 31,
never to be headed again.
Bob McPhee ably abetted Ers
kine with a 17-point total score,
giving him second place in the in
dividual scoring race for the first
Illtu.
For the losers, this much can
be said: They put up the gamest
kind of a contest. They didn’t have
the experience, but, brother, they
didn’t lack any fight. And those
selfsame prepsters will do well to
remember, when their own play
for the high school championship
of Southeast Alaska comes around
next month, that fight can do won
ders out there on that maple floor.
Little need be said about the
nightcap. The DeMolays, in win
ning, failed to impress. Their
team work was not clicking. Their
outstanding star was again Lloyd
Bayers, first half individual scor
ing champion, who added 18 points
to his large total. A1 Bloomquist
staged his best game of the season.
