At this point the Junc tion team switched to a man-to man defense, and successive field goals by Bill Clausen, Ken Hunt .and Bill Carr put the Ducklings in command. Ken Hunt, fast developing set shot artist from Marshfield, spear headed the Frosh offense with 16 points. Southpaw Bill Korpela push ed through 10 to annex the runner up spot in this department. Starting Lineup Kirsch’s starting lineup was Kor pela and Bob Kittilson, guards; Hunt and Carr, forwards; and Jim Vranizan at center. Although he substituted freely, it was obvious that these men will be relied on for the heavy chores in the future. During the scrimmage, the Kir schmen exhibited a greatly improv ed attack. Their passing and ball handling was excellent, while the shooting of Hunt was nothing short of sensational. Defense Slack However, defensively the Duck lings showed a tendency to be fak ed out of position on several occa sions. particularly in the strategic areas to the left and right of the keyhole. Kirsch pointed this out at the beginning of the fourth quarter and stout defense work by Korpela, Carr, and Kittilson held the prep sters to a mere three counters in this quarter.
