Shamrocks Win
And Lose In Week’s
Court Play
Palmer’s Shamrocks pulled
their on-record basketball aver
age to 50 per cent last week, with
a win against the 57th Medics on
Wednesday, 43-40, and a loss to
Club Esquire on Saturday, 44-38.
They also took it on the chin
again in a practice session with
the Independents Tuesday, when
they went down 43-15.
The Palmer five started slowly
in the first half against the Army
Medics, trailing 13-8 at the quar
ter and 21-17 at the half.
Then Bud Billot and Ray De
Priest both started training their
sights dead center in the second
half, when Bud rang up eight
points and Ray tallied 12. Ben
Hermon also had himself a scor
ing spree, first of the season, in
this game, dumping in 12 points
all told.
Army’s Lacy and Kent were
sr* wr*
high with 15 and 12 points each.
Although trailing all through
the first half in the Saturday
game, fhe play was fairly even
in the initial periods. The Sham
rocks faltered badly in the third
period, when the Esquires built a
34-22 lead.
Again Ray DePriest came to
life in the fourth quarter to
count for 10 points, six of them
from the free throw line. He
topped Shamrock scoring in that
game, although closely followed
by Miles France with 13 points.
The Shamrocks met the Club .
Esquire again on the local floor
last night, too late for Frontier
man coverage this week.
Although the City League
schedule still is snarled, and the
local five’s next bame dates un
certain, they already have made
definite arrangement to meet
both the Alaska Railroad and
VFW fives in Palmer, Emil Wal
dal said. No definite play dates
have been worked out for these
games, which will be practice en
counters and not league games.
’Wotta Team''
(Continued from Page 1)
closed the gap to an agonizing
one basket shortage. Nearly
every man on the squad had an
opportunity to tie the score in
the final minutes of play, but the
final whistle found them still one
basket short of a tie.
Anchorage’s Fred Richards led
the game’s scoring with 14 points.
Harvey Hiber, Palmer center who
did the kind of job every coach
hopes his center will do, led
Palmer with 12 points. Edison
Thuma and Harold Bendixen
added tight tallies apiece to the
total.
