The win put Marshall Wells at
the top of the league with Al and

However the league is packed
tighter than the proverbial sare
dine can with the leaders tied
six won, five lost, Skeena third
with six won, six lost, and Agar

wins and seven losses,

court to overpower Agar Redand

Students’ Bob Kester used an
effective fast break keyed by re-
bounds from Rod Kiuss, Bruce

Skeena has an effective sixth,
man in Flavid Cerva who con-
sistently comes into tha game
late and makes his basket,

Coach Al Cameron is certain
his fastemoving Skeena squad
could hold first place if they had
a big man to stop the big men
