DOVER - In the best played game of the afternoon sessions the Port Washington Eagles (1-0) (2-3) won an 8-point victory over the Baltic Eagles (0-1) (2-5), a scrappy crew that would never admit they were defeated.  Baltic played a much better floor game, but their shots went wild.  Port Washington kept at a distance by the tight Baltic defense, proved adept at sinking them from longer range.  That's what won the ball game, the difference in shooting ability.

Paul Miller, #10, short Baltic guard and #8 Dale Rinehart, flashed for the Eagles, the former playing a great defense game and leading in scoring with 4 hard-earned field goals for 8 points.  Rinehart scored 2 goals and 3 fouls for 7 markers.  The Scheetz brothers, Owen and Paul, played good floor games.  For the Port Eagles, #13 Earl Wheeland, veteran forward, showed an uncanny eye for the bucket and sank 2 distant shots.  John Bond, #6, is one sweet floor man and #5 Jim Decker looked good at guard.
