S. Alameda. The entire team looks forward to their re turn, he says, when they again stake their chances against Seward. On November 1, 16 men turned out for the College basket ball squad. Among them were Capt. Ted Loftus, Geo. Lingo and Art Loftus, the only letter men of last year to serve as nucleus for this year’s term, the other candidates coming from the sophmore and freshmen classes placed quite a problem before the new coach. Prior to this season the College teams have not had an experienced coach and their success and few fail ures seemed to be the results of the survival of the fittest. The new coach brought with him a combination sys tem of play, made up of the best the east and middlewest had to offer and insisted that his squad forget all their previous tactics and learn his system form the very simple fundamentals iso as to build a winning team that! could tour their college in a winning! style. On Nov. 6 before the boys had time to develop any team play whatever, Coach Abell matched them against the Fairbanks Moose five, so that he i might see them under fire. The re sut was defeat so far as the score was concerned as the Moose won 21 to 16. But the coach observed a great deal of individual, undeveloped ability, plus as many bad defects that had to be altered. The fast Moose team is the results of three years playing together and therefore held a number of tricks in reserve. On November 20, they met up with the Moose for the second time and although they were defeated again, | the showed great improvement in every department of the game ex cept shooting baskets and here “Old Dame Fate” dealt them a terrible hand. During the forty minutes of play they had possession of the ball three-fourts of the time, passing and outguessing the Moose at every angle, but they Were only able to score five points against the 15 for the Moose. With one week’s practice in basket shooting they met the fast Fairbanks High School five and this time showed the enthused spectators some real basketball, winning this game by a score of 28 to 20. On December 3 they found them selves ready to fox the Bull Moose and his strong five to the tune of 20 to 7. In this game the College boys made the Moose look like amateurs and had they made fifty per cent of their shots the score would have been ■ much greater. On December 9, the night before leaving on their tour of Southeastern Alaska, they again showed Fairbanks how they intended bringing home all victories from the south by defeating the F. E. Co. team 47 to 12. Friday morning, Dec. 10, the ma jority of Fairbanks was at the depot to bid farewall and good luck to the College boys and at the College the entire student body were on deck to cheer their team on to victory. The same night at Curry, we were greet ed at the hotel with a private table decorated with the College colors and well supplied with a seven course tur key dinner. Saturday at 7:00 p. m. the eight players, coach and President Bunnell hopped off at Seward and at 8:30 the whistle started the first game on for eign territory. The small ball and low ceiling plus the mighty offensive play of the Sew ard Athletic five gave the boys plenty to work for and at no time during the game was either side at ease so far as results were concerned. The first half ended 7 to 6 in favor of the Col lege, the third quarter gave the Col lege a 17 to 10 lead and then Seward staged a quick come back and "with the score of 17 to 16, Capt. McEwen of the Seward five had two fine throws to take the lead or tie up the score but failed in both chances. At this point Capt. Ted Loftus of the College slipped out and rolled in two just before the final w'histle mak-1 ing a close score of 21 to 16. It was the hardest, fastest and clean est game the College has had this sea son and the real sportsmanship shown by the Seward five and the large at tendance holds a close place in the hearts of all the College present. Af ter a few dances, a lunch and final handshake the boys left at midnight and planed for their games down the j coast; but they look forward to re turning on the December 31, to again take their chances with Seward.
