Show Cub Juniors Outfoul West, But Foes Outshoot "B" 25-22 31 Because they failed to connect with the hoop on foul tries, while West tanked most of theirs, the Cub "B" squad Friday dropped a heart-breaking game to West's juniors jun-iors by a score 25-23, at the Deseret Gym. The 'B' team got off to a bad start, and although they recovered and forged ahead at the half, faltered fal-tered again, and were unable t o regain re-gain the treasured lead. At the beginning of the game South fouled time and time again, and although they worked the ball into West's defense they threw it away. Another thing noticeable about the Cubs was that they failed to tail their shots and lost the ball to West because of this. No one man on South's junior quintet was outstanding, but Reid Keddinglon, who went out of the game on fouls, and Anthon Peterson Peter-son were somewhat smoother than their teammates. High point men for the evening were Morris Kjar of South with 8 points and Wil-ford Wil-ford Fink from West with a total of 7 points. As for next week's games with East the Cubs will have overcome some of their stage fright and will attempt to eek out a victory over East's flashy quintet of juniors. This loss was South's first in two year, thus ending their sole shut-out reign of the "Big Three" casaba race. It loopholed their chances to duplicate last year's flashing successes. Friday night the 'B' will meet East in a game that will make or break South's junior team. East presents stiff competition in this group, and South's poor showing by losing to West Friday, only makes the outlook more doubtful. Possible the greatest reason for their loss Friday night, was the 'B' team's lack of FIGHT. Coach Ryan will drill his charges hard this week, especially on foul shooting. With a week of hard practice, the juniors should be in shape to knock down the giant Ecide team with star Oscar McConkie. Peppy Booster Club Stands Behind Teams Of all the pepsters at the school of the blue and white, the Boos-etrs Boos-etrs Girls' club is the most lively. Using white as their standard color, col-or, their white sweaters were in abundance at all of the football games, and their pep was even more dominant. On several assemblies they have given their all to help enhance the morale of Cub football enthusiasts. ' Now that basketball season is here, "Meg," and "Inky," their lively live-ly cheer leaders are cooking up some new yells and stunts for lively live-ly Southerners ....
