"A” Marines and the J’R” Branchers. It was a furious struggle to the very finish
with a score of 50 to 50 at the end of the fourth quarter forcing the game into
an overtime period. In the last five seconds, the Marlines'took the game with a
score of 52 to 50 after a goal tending was called on the ”R” Branchers. This
hard won victory gave the Marines the Captin’s Trophy for the season as well as
