The Haines A.N.B. tear; last Wednesday night at the A.iT.3* Hall
defeated the Sitka team hy a score of 29 to 27. The score at the
half stood 10 to 10 making the game a close one and hotly contested
from the beginning to the end. Both teams showed fine team work
and were highly complimented by the spectators. The Sitka team had
not been defeated before in five years, so the Haines A.H.3.team
justly feel proud of their victory.
Great enthusiasm is being manifested throughout the Post and
Haines over the proposed trip of the post Basketball Team to Juneau
in the near future, and a record crowd is expected to go down to
help the team”bring back the bacon”.
The Post Team is a strong aggregation just now and we naturally
feel proud of them and expect them to give a good account of them
selves when they go up against the Juneau Invincibles.
