DUSTERS  FIRST  QUINT  DUMPED
BY  ‘VISITORS’  IN  TWO  SEASONS
   Nob Kuwatani’s two quick
Baskets in the closing mi-
nutes turned the tide in
Las Animas favor as the
visitors came from behind
to win a hard-fought 33-30
tussle from the ragged Dus-
tors quintet in the first
of Sunday afternoon's triple-
header     at   the  local  gym.
   Both teams slam-banged
away point-for-point during
the first half with neither
side enjoying a commanding
lead, but Las Animas held
a slim one-point margin at
the end of   first  two  quar-
ters, 11-10 and 17-16.  Vis-
tors’   lightening-fast  Ted
Maruyama  and   easv-going  El
Sakai were   setting a   steady
pace, while  Duster   John Ni-
izawa’s scoring was keeping
the home cagers in the game.
   In the third canto, the
Dusters really found them-
selves and opened up a neat
26-19 lead that set the
stage for what was expected
to be a Duster triumph, but
they figured without taking
Kuwatani into account.  Las
Animas came back strong in
the Final stanza to close
the gap slowly but steadily,
thanks to Kuwatani’s 8 point 
spurt, and successfully
nursed a 3 point margin in
the last two minutes for
victory.  This was the first 
loss suffered by a center
team to an “outside” nisei quintet
in two seasons.
the game.
   High point honors went
to Maruyama  and     Kuwatani
of Las Animas  with  13-10
digits respectively, and
Duster’s Niizawa with 10
points.

MENDA  HITS 20
YOORES SWAMP
CROWLEY 64-27
   Visiting  Crowly basket -
ers   put   on  a  disappointing
exhibition     of  casaba  tos-
sing in their lop-sided
24-27 loss to the fast Yoo-
res double-A aggregation In
last Sunday afternoon's
second  fray. The score
could have been much higher
if the local lads had their
usual shooting-eye.
    First half score stood
at 22-13 in Yoores' favor
but it didn't even begin
to tell the  story of game's
one-sidedness  as the maroon -
clad tossers missed scores
of easy  set-shoos  under the
goal.
   Things were very much
different in the second
half with Yoores' forwards
Menda and Kashiwabara hit-
ting the hoop regularly to
garner 20 and 18 tallies
respectively.   For Crowley,
center  Sam Ashida  with  15
markers was the leading
scorer.
