Shamrocks Plan
Season Opener
Palmer’s Shamrocks, town bas
ketball team, expect to open the
'48-’49 court competition with a
game in the local gymnasium
Saturday night, manager Art
Stacey announced today. Sham
rock opponents were uncertain at
press-time, since neither Army
nor Anchorage City League
squads have undertaken regular
practice drills yet.
However Mr. Stacey said he be
lieved an Army squad will be
available Saturday. If not, there
will be some sort of practice tilt
among Valley court stars.
The Shamrocks have been
practicing for the past two
weeks, and are now devoting
three nights weekly (Monday.
Wednesday and Thursday) to the
business of getting in shape for
the coming season.
A dozen Shamrocks are re
porting for the nightly prac
tices. Although the Stewart
brothers will be missing from the
team’s roster this season, the
squad is looking forward to a
good year. “Long on sharpshoot
ers and short on men with an
added inch or two of height
above the six-foot level,” is the
v/ay manager Stacey sums up his
squad now. Any Valley men in
terested in basketball are invit
ed to join the team.
The team is to be sponsored
this season by Jan Koslosky of
the Shamrock Bar. Emil Wal
dahl continues as business man
ager.
