“The Sports Corner”
Malcmutes Rip Nome Nanooks, 59-34
The Lathrop High School Male
mutes scored a 59-34 basketball
victory over a battling Nome
Nanook five on the local court
last night. Gary Wilken hit 22
points and Romar Swarner scored
13 in a tense, exciting game wit
nessed by the largest crowd in
some time. The Nooks were paced
by the fine all-around play of
diminutive forward-guard John
Bahnke, who hit for 11 points.
The Andersen brothers scored 8
and 7 points, respectively, but
constant pressure by the Male
mutes forced the local high school
lads into repeated ball-handling
mistakes.
“You don’t make a dozen mis
takes and beat a team like La
throp,” said Coach Ray Tinjum of
the Nanooks. Lathrop showed the
large crowd why they have been
thought of by many as the state’s
best basketball team, but had to
be content with a meager 20-13
half-time advantage. Gary Wilken
and Romar Swarner led their
team to the half-time lead with
8 and 6 points, respectively.
Bahnke nailed 7 for the Nanooks.
The second half started out just
like the first, but the tiring

Nooks couldn’t hold off their
stronger, taller foes very long. La
throp moved into a rolling, pick
ing type of offense to shake their
shooters loose for good shots and
when they missed, Wilken was
there to guide the ball through
the nets. Ten big points by Gary
in the final eight minutes shot the
margin to 25 points at the final
buzzer.
The same two teams will square
off at 8 p.m. tonight after a
Frosh-Upperclass Reserves game
scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m.
“We wdll just have to play harder,”
said the Nome coaches, ‘‘if we ex
pect to beat this fine aggregation.”
Tinjum indicated that some
line-up changes would be in or
der to see if a little offensive
punch can’t be mustered up. Ken
ny Okitkon will start at one
guard position, while versatile
John Bahnke will go to the other
guard spot. Robby Fagerstrom will
get the call at one forward and
be assigned the tough task of stop
ping Big Gary Wilken. The An
dersen brothers will round out the
starting line-up for the scrappy
Nome quintet. Joe Tremarello
was expected to start his usual
crew of Gary Wilken, Romar
Swarner, Gary Dixon, Greg Mit
chell and Mike Scanlon.
Admission will be $1 for adults
and 50 cents for kids who are
school age.
! Spinach for Christmas
Armenians celebrate Christmas
Eve on Jan. 6 by eating fried fish,
lettuce and boiled spinach. The
reason for the boiled spinach:
They believe Mary ate it the night
I before Jesus was born.

Lucky 13 Bowling
Is Sunday’s Feature
The Men’s 99ers League, in co
operation with Aukruk Lanes
management, will sponsor an un
usual event this coming Sunday,
Dec. 15. The game is called Lucky
13. It seems this is an appropriate
week-end for the game, inasmuch
as Friday the 13th is today. The
thing to do is to prove
the fallacy of the proverbial bad
luck day by coming down to the
Lanes Sunday and, with a little
luck, you can win that Christmas
turkey or ham.
That’s right — First prize in the
men’s division and an identical
prize in the women’s division is a
delicious turkey. Second and third
prize — also duplicated in each
of the two divisions — is a ham.
Just a brief idea of the game:
A series of four ghmes is bowled
for the more than reasonable fee
of $2.50. Scattered throughout the
scoring boxes for those four games
will be 13 free strikes. Those
frames are automatically counted
as a strike. The exact placement
of the free strikes will be deter
mined prior to the contest by
drawing from a hat, and each
score sheet will have the same
frames marked with a strike. You
bowl and fill in the remaining
frames . . . actually bowling the
equivalent of three games.
It looks like here will be fun
for all and a good chance to gel
the bird free this holiday season
Coffee and sandwiches will be or
sale to help keep up your energy
See you there Sunday, Dec. 15.
