THE SCORE
Union (Boys), 30 Silverdale 10
Union (Girls), 25; Silverdale, 23

     Union high school teams, both boys and girls basketball shooters, defeated Silverdale teams in two contests in the high school gymnasium Friday evening.

     The girls ‘ core, 25 to 23, was tied two minutes before the final whistle blew, then Tina Bailey threw a basket.

     It was a close and hard-fought game throughout, with first one side and then the other ahead in the first half, when the score was 15-to-13.

     The final score of 30 to 10 for the boys game tells in brief the

story of a one-sided victory, for at no time did Silverdale seem in danger of getting close.  From a 5 to 0 at the end of the first half to the finish Union was always safely in the leag.

     Although there was not the tenseness and uncertainty manifested in the girls game, the Silverdale boys put up a good fight and the game was by no means a walk-away.

     Both Union teams played well for the first game of the season and showed a fine spirit.  It is to be expected that they will improve before the season is over, with practice.

     Girls lineup was: Centers, Dorothy Champlin and Evelyn Aldrich; side center, Hanna Ishingannl, and guards; Ruth Ring, Margaret Kenyon and Jennie Kenyon.

     The boys lineup: Philip Hudson, Chester McKlheney, Harry Rudolph, Larry Kelly, Arthur Waaga, Raymond Ames, Erwin Miller and Leo Land. Marqulat, referee
