Yell it out loud! Let the whole community
know about it! Congrats are in,thea^^d

ever seen. The cause of all this jubilation is
the way in which the Nippons, entered as san
Intermediate B squad, overcame the height
handicap by speed and
ance to nose out the Intermediate A boys from
the Y.M.C.A. by a score of 32-29 last night.
It was a dog-fight right from the start
Nippons, although trailing 9-6 at the end of
the quarter, fought back, bravely paced by
the surprise performance of gangling Kenny
Miyazaki, who seemed to be everywhere in
tercepting passes.
The Nippons took the lead in the second
canto Tor the first time as Toru Tokawa, Ha
shimoto, Sub Miike and Toyama scored field
goals to give the Nippons a 16-11 lead at rest
time.
SKI TRAILS
Y:M.C.A., spurred by the rest, sizzled for
a while and grabbed an 18-17 lead, but as fas
as the lead changed hands Ken Miyazaki s two
one-handed swishers brought the lead back to
our boys.
It was the thrill-packed last-canto race
that really set the crowd on its feet. Y.M.C.A.
went wild again, scoring 9 points without a
comeback to take a 29-26 lead. This time it
was husky !Mush’ Fukumoto who saved the
day and paved the way for the Nippons first
victory. He netted two free throws and a
basket with but a minute to spare, giving the
Nippons the lead again 30-29. Another swisher
by Sakai Tsukamoto clinched the game for
the giant-killing Nippons.
