One of the most thrilling basketball games we have had the privilege to see in a long time was the Medford Junior Varsity and Grants Past Jay Voe clash on the high school maple last Friday night. The kids deserved a whale of a writeup but the whole thing was erronously omitted from our accounts of the main game. At end of the regular playing time Medford and the Cave kids were all knotted up at 46-46 aft er first one and thtfh the other team held a brief lead. A three minute overtime found the score stiil 46-46 when it was decided that the first team to make a basket would win the game. As luck, and luck alone, would have it, Medford got tho basket about a minute and a half after the second overtime started. The main game between the varsity teams of Medford and Grants Pa.s was sort of anti-climax after watching next year's mainstays In their thrilling battle.
