Spectators at the games last night thought they were going to see the New Britain Machine team win its first gams in three seasons. The Newmatics looked great in thé first part of the first half and if the line- up were not changed toward the latter part of the half, the team might have maintained a good lead. Once the Corbin Cabinet Lock Ream got into the lead, it played a smashing offensive game. ‘A long pass, “Chiet” Larson to “Red” O'Toole scored considerably in the last stages of the game.

Backing up the main feature on the card are four bouts that should result in plenty of action. The semi- final will bring Bat Battalino. former national amateur feather. weight champion, together with Philly Griffin, tough Newark, N. J yper. Griffin's long string of vl tories gives him a shade over Bat- talino and the fact that the former amateur king has been Jaid up for six weeks or more hasn't helped his jrospe any. Bat, however, is his old time stuff in training and his punches are as stift s ever. It is expected that this out, although carded for six rounds, will be shortened consider- ably. The battle the ts between Portell and Angelo, the two Hartford, arch- rivals, has the river section of Hart- rd all “burned up.” Both hail from the same neighborhood in Hartford and their home sector is split up into two camps.

Happy at his victory, Alekhine said: “I have realized the dream of ny whole life.
