Nome Insurance Powerpaek Drives
Through Nooks, Merchants Taste First
Success in Stamping on Hornets
The powerful Nome Insurance
“five” sailed to their third consec
utive win in the City League Fri
day evening when they handed
the high school Nanooks their sec
ond loss, 50-38.
The insurancemen held quarter
leads of 12-7, 23-18. 38-29, before
finishing 12 points in front. Lead
ing the way for the winners was
Milt Johnson with 13 markers,
while Corky Kost was in double
figures with 10.
The Nanooks, whom Coach Ray
Tinjum said played their scrappiest
game, were led by the fine play
of Stan Andersen. Stan clicked for
12 points, contributed fine defen
sive play and was the leader in
the important rebounding depart
ment. Steff Andersen, playing
only briefly, counted 8 times, while j
Wendall Smith, getting his first
start, played well for the Nanooks.
Coach Tinjum indicated that
Smith would start again when the
Nooks take on high-powered Eiel
son High School on Dec. 5.
Too many ball-handling mis
takes again cost the high school
five any chance for victory. Ef

f forts will be made during this
week’s practice sessions to avoid
some of these errors. Defensively,
Coach Tinjum praised his charges
once again. This was the lowest
total for the insurancemcn, who
are fast stamping themselves as
the team to beat.
In the second game, the Mer
chants won their first game of the
season by a score of 54-43 over a
stumbling Polar Hornet five. The
defending champion Hornets have
been unable to win in their first
three games.
Looking up at the rest of the
league is new for the Polar boys,
and they promise to have plenty
to say about who wins the league
title in February. The hot-shooting
Merchants were paced by Bill
Oman’s lfi points, Ron Locke’s 14
and Dewey Otton's 12.
Boone Oman played so well un
der the boards and hit eight mark
ers to help out. Sharp-shooting ■
Tony Will ova had 18, Steve Wil
son had 13, and Wiley Scott had
9 for the Polar Hornets.
Tuesday, Dec. 3. the scrappy
ANB quintet goes against the Mer
chants in the opener, while the
Polar Hornets face the Nome In
surance lads. The same two games
will be on tap next Friday due to
the Nanooks being out of City
League action for the week.
The Polar-Insurance fracas will
kick off Friday's double-header.
In the meantime the Fighting Nan
ooks will display their wares in
front of foreign fans for the first
time this season when they play
the Eielson High School quintet
on Thursday and tangle with La
throp High of Fairbanks on Friday
and Saturday nights.

CARACAS. Venezuela 0P> — In

With unofficial tabulations ap

Leoni led his closest rival bjr be
tween 75,000 and 90,000 votes.
The Leoni vote appears to have
handed the pro-Castro tenorist

two days. The first setback was |
the record number of voters who I
cast ballots, yesterday despite ter
rorist threats to shoot down any
