CRIMSON BEARS BACK
WITH COMPLIMENTS
FOR GAME OFFICIALS
The concensus by the Juneau
High school basketball team and
Coach Arnold Soley is that there
never has been as good refereeing
in Juneau as there was at the All
Alaska basketball championship
games held in Anchorage this week
But the main complaint was the
fact that the team had to play the
first game on Monday with only 30
minutes of practice. The Crimson
Bears were not given more of f
practice session because a physica.
education class had not been can
celled which could have given the
team another hour.
"We always cancelled all physica
education classes here so that the
Visiting team could have more time
to get used to a strange floor," saic
Soley.
“The officials were best for the
second and third games with the
first eame called ton closely. The
officials said that Juneau had the
best players for sportsmanship tha:
any other team that had been in
Anchorage during the past season,”
he said. “Anchorage had a good
club and is traveling to Vancouver
B. C. for a game there. The towns
people got up the pool to send the
team there.”
“Anchorage had a height advan
tage but with proper rest and a
good practice session, we more than
likely could have shown the Eagle"
a better run for the money. The
fans including the high school kids
were difinitely for us,” Soley said.
“Our team tensed up during the
second and fourth quarters of the
first game though they were re
laxed and really playing good bal
in the first and third periods. This
I was probably as a direct result of
the plane ride on the same day we
played. We were told that radio
time could not be arranged to have
the first game delayed by one day,”
he concluded.
There was a student assembly
for the Crimson Bears on Tuesday
afternoon. Sterling S. Sears, super
intendent of schools, gave a resume
of the All-Alaska games and how
the tournament had been built up.
Soley introduced the Bears at the
assembly.
When the Crimson Bears returned
yesterday afternoon, a large wel
coming assembly was held here.
Joe Ninnis, high point man for
both teams in the first two games
is the only player that said he would
like to live in Anchorage. He said
that the last two games of the three
game series was a better show of
officiating than had been here dur
ing the past season. Ninnis totaled
21 points in the first game and 15
in the second.
“We were too tired from the plane
ride for the first game and we had
to practice right after the trip up,”
Ninnis said, "or get no practice at
all.”
“It was not so nice of them not
to postpone that first game,” said
Herbie Martin. “We would have
stood a better chance at the title if
we had had the proper rest.”
“The Anchorage team was a good
team to play but there wasn’t much
spirit shown by the Anchorage stu
dents for their own team. The team
was a bunch of good sports, though.
We had about 12 alumni there root
ing for us who are stationed with
the Army at Anchorage,” said Eng
strom.
TO DEPORT
BRIBER IN
BASKETBALL
NEW YORK, March 16 — W—'The
Justice Department has moved to
deport Salvatore Sollazzo, the ex
convict accused as the master briber
in the college basketball scandal
here.
But the Manhattan district at
torney hopes to convict him of brib
ery and make him serve a sentence
before any deportation.
A warrant of arrest was served
on Sollazzo in his jail cell yesterday
in proceedings for deportation to
his native Italy.
Grounds for a deportation order,
the Justice Department said, in
clude past convictions for crimes
involving moral turpitude, entrance
into this country illegally, and mis
representing himself as an Ameri
can citizen to immigration author
ities.
Sollazzo, a jewel merchant and
gambler, is held without bail on a
bribery indictment. He is charged
with bribing 11 players or former
players of three New York colleges
to fix basketball games in Madison
Square Garden so he could clean
up on bets.
Sollazzo also has been indicted on
income tax evasion charges, served
with a large tax lien and investi
gated about gold transactions.
