In the second period the Warrior defense put the clamps on the Vikings, and with Miller, Paulsen and Deener putting the ball through the hoop, the Warriors left the floor at the intermission leading by 10, 37 to 27. In the third period Hurckes again hit the hoop with ac­ curate consistency and along> with Miller, Knox, Deener, anil Durkin the Warriors main­ tained their lead and went into the final eight minutes leading 59 to 47. The final period, defense was thrown to the wind, as both teams ran and gunned scoring a total of 57 pts., 29 by the Vikings.
