They triumphed over Massena on the Raiders' own court. Next the Devils met Saranac and the Lakers toppled them by a 51-44 margin, This was not too discouraging because the Lakers were the team to beat in '50, The Norwood-Norfolk team sur- prised the Devils on its meager court in the closing seconds of the game. Malone was swamped as the Demons sprang to life in a brilliant burst of basketball. This proved to be one of the locals' best games in 1950. Gouverneur also was stunned by the championship brand of ball displayed by the Devils. The next struggle matched the Demons against Tupper Lake. This was a close game a the way but the Devils were rushed out of the win column by the defending champions. Wins over Canton and Potsdam ended thefirst round of the '49-'50 season. In the second half of the season the Devils went stale. They emerged victorious in only three struggles and these were against second division teams. A season that started out to be one of triumph turned into a fiasco. However, this year had its bright spots as well as its dark, side. Stan Wells, playing his final year in Blue and White turn- ed in many brilliant moments on the court. Dick Norman also SCORES added to the better part of the season.
