DOVER - Action aplenty came in the Baltic Eagles (1-0)-Tuscarawas Broncos (0-1) affair won by Baltic as the 1st on Friday evening's program by a 5 point margin. It was an unexpected battle from the Broncos that the Eagles met, the boys from the lower end of the county playing the best they have at any time this season. The game was always close. At no time did Baltic hold such a decided advantage that they were conceded victory by the fan flock. Harlan Richardson, Baltic guard, was the only man to go out on personal fouls.
The 1st period ended 9-5 with Tusky on the front end. At halftime; however, the shooting of center Paul Sheetz and forward Lahm, had given Baltic the edge at 19-13. The 3rd period saw Tuscarawas come back, but not enough to cut down the lead of the Rinehart coached aggregation. It ended with Baltic in front 25-22. Senior Van Adamson, star forward of the Broncos, threatened each time he got the ball and the team got within 2 points of Baltic with 2 minutes to play. Altogether he counted 7 field goals and 2 fouls for a total of 16 of his team's points. Sheetz was the star performer of his team for Baltic along with Lahm. The two together scored 25 of Baltic's 35 points.
