The smallest man on the floor, Alvey was easily the most energetic, The cats scored 5 from the line and 12 from the floor, 29 points in all. The clan gained only 17 and at the half the cats were in front 44-29, As the third period got taller way, the cats kept up their pressure and soon stretched out a 21 point lead. It must have been the last straw for the Scots, because they suddenly came ‘alive and ° showed some true highland fighting spirit.
