ANCHORAGE PLAYERSDEFEAT PALMER FIVE]
Maintaining their lead in the
flailbelt Conference, the Anchor
age High School basketball team
defeated the Palmer Moose 44-32
in a rather one-sided game played
in Anchorage January 17. *
Exceptional defensive work by
the Anchorage Eagles kept the
Palmer boys from effective plays
in trying to work the ball into
scoring position many times
throughout the game. Not having
made a point during the first
quarter, forward Jack McKechnie
scored 14 points for his team in
rhe last three quarters of the
game!
Although Eagle Phil Kahler did
lot make his usual high percen
tage of free throws, he was top
tor his team with 18 points and
turned in fine defensive work,
holding Palmer center, Brown
down to only three field goals.
To Meet Malemutes
Friday and Saturday will see
‘he Fairbanks Malemutes as
guests on the Palmer court.
Standing second in the Railbelt
Conference, the Malemutes will
be out to defend this standing.
They come here following their
crucial game with Anchorage last
night when Fairbanks trounced
the Eagles 53-34.
In the preliminary that open
ed the game January 17, the Pal
