36 to 32 'Victory is Taken
After nip and Tuck
Hoop Battle
Names of famous football play
er three of them considered for
All-American honors look good
even In a basketball lineup, bat
they didn't quite servo to over
come the Anderson Y. M. C. A.
quintet's record of no defeats. The
local boys won from Kit miller's
Ail-Stars of Eugene 3 S to 32 Tues
day night on the local high school
floor, -after trailing behind mqst
of the game.- ,,: ."-:.f
. Kltimlller brought two diminu
tive: but deadly forwards, Ruben
stein and Wirth: an awkward
lookJng'but accurate-shooting cen
ter, Jerry Llllle, ! and three mas
sive and. capable guards in the
well known persons- of Colbert,
Christensen and himself.
Against that J combination It
took all of the speed add team
work of the 'Y hoopers to pre
rail -finally and the outcome was
in doubt up to the last second.
The "Y" was ahead for a shre
of the first half but it ended with
the visitors leading 19-16. From
then on it was nip and tuck, with
" the score frequently tied. j
In the wild scramble which
characterized the last few min
utes. Flake tied the score at 32
alt by shooting till the sphere fin
ally went in; Nash looped a beau
ty to put the "Y" ahead and Ben
jamin wound up the scoring with
one from medium distance. j . .
Though Flake did the heavy
scoring for the "Y," it was the
cool playing of Ash by that kept
the local team in the running
when the tide of battle was la the
other direction.

bringing bis fellows here this -time
and will try feather-weights'
and lightweights In the future.
.The main event tonight will be .
one of the old fashioned slugging .

plenty. This will be Dossey's big
opportunity and he is sure to be
