It was- anybody's game but the experienced Alphas methodically set up plays and coolly fell back to a zone defence while the "cherubs" came through on sheer, fighting spirit. The half-time score read 19-18 for the Alphas. Angels surged into .th'6 lead1 but the "A's!' stemmed the maroon tide and stayed .ahead for the rest of the contest,
Koji Fukumoto led the Alphas with 14 points while the rest of his teammates were held below their usual efficiency by close checking. For the Angels,' scrappy Tad Suzuki and Kozo Kumita were best with $ jits. each. '

Nisei hope for future pro hockey, Frankie Toyota, helped in the 10-4 rout of Toronto juvenile Marlbojros in St. Catharines last week by sinking a goal.

Tommy Iwanioto came near the coveted dream of all bowlers when he knocked, down, nine strikes only to hit that jinx, the head pin, in the 10th franio at the Gibson' Bowladrorne. Sue Mitsimaga bowled a startling 818 triple for Kn:n Cadillac in the Automotive League which i^ fair trundling in any league especially for a girl.
