Show TIGERS LOSE TO BEAVER FRIDAY Last Friday in the season's league opener the Beaver High school basketball squad shellacked shel-lacked the Milford Tigers, handing hand-ing them the worst defeat they have suffered in more than six years. The final tally was 52 to 18, and except for the first per- j iod and two minutes of the second sec-ond stanza, it wasn't even a ball game. The Beavers fielded a smooth - operating aggregation with two oustanding eagle eyes in Paice and Cox, who peppered the casaba thru the hoop from any and every angle. Paice had six from the floor and 3 of 6 tries from the foul line for 15 points to lead the scoring. For the Tigers, Bradfield and Fisher had 5 points each, Bock-woldt Bock-woldt 4 and Kinross 4, and that was all the scoring the home-towners home-towners were able to do. It was an "off night," such as every club experinces, and the Tiger fans are fervently hoping it's their one and only lousy game of the season. None of the hometowners played an outstanding game. Kinross was probably the more aggressive and showed the most spunk, and Bradfield seemed to make the most floor-interceptions. All the boys were flat-footed flat-footed most of the way, and just couldn't get unwound.-. - j Coach Neal has some latent I talent in some of the youngsters who played part of the last two periods. Darryl Schramm, the "mite" of the squad, bounced a free throw in-and-out and later in the period sent a set-shot at the hoop that disappeared com-; com-; pletely before it spun out. Little j "Schrammy" will rack up a good many points for the Tigers before the season is over. Red Griffiths and Young i Barnes led the other members ; of the younger squad in aggres-I aggres-I siveness and ability. Banks needs a good deal of experience to go with his height. Last Friday's box score is printed in this week's school section. |
