This same proficiency now applies to basketball. Roseburg basketball fans can judge for themselves this Friday night when the Israelite House of David hoop quintet floors a team at the Roseburg high school against Roseburg's J C Sporting Goods store AAU team. The House of David has played baseball and basketball in every state in the country, two visits to Havana, played through Mexico in both sports; also covered all of the Provinces of Canada and have played both baseball and basket ball in Alaska.

They proved their basketball skill Monday night at Yoncalla. Together, they crumbled J C Sporting Goods basketball domin ation of the Umpqua Valley AAU league by outscoring the entire Roseburg squad, which last year won the league and district cham pionships. The decisive score was 74-50. Strait scored 32 points and Verment added 10 (or a total of 51, just enough to edge the J Cs by uiemseives. Except (or the first quarter, the Roseburg squad wasn't even in the. game. The J Cs jumped off to a 10-8 first quarter lead, but that was before Strait found the range. He warmed up until the second canto when he started sinking J C hopes. In that quarter, he sin glehandedly outscored the visit ors. He hit six baskets for 12 points. John Bates, Less Winders and Jack Loomis managed five baskets and 10 ooints amone them. The third quarter was the same story. Strait sank five baskets and a tree throw for 11 points. Four Roseburg men garnered nine points. By this time the Yoncs were ahead 48-29. Tapart Off The bespectacled Yoncall peda gogue tapered off with only three baskets in the final Quarter, but by this time, Verment was ready to take the load. As the piece de resistance, he strung together iive oasneis ana two tree throws tor 12 in the last frame. The result was a thorough and completely humbling J C loss. Strait and Vermont stole the scoring show, but Lcs Winders of Roseburg did a commendable job with 18 points to lead his team. Strait's scoring show was the best this year. In the two-year his tory of the Umpqua Valley league, only Harold Smith and Jack Loom is have tallied more points in a single game. J C Sptg.
