L4 | Speaking of Sports It appears at the present writing, as if the scheduled game between Corbin Screw and Corbin Cabinet Lock Industrizl league tcams will have to be played. In a telephone conversation with Manager William Hickie of the Cor- hin Screw team today, it was learned that the Screw shop will insist on playing the final game. The manage- inent feels Yakubowitz, its captain, should be given an opportunity of winning the high Rcorinb honor which he had in his grasp and lost lust Saturday. The game would be played at the Y. M. C. A, In explaining his move Mr. Hickie said: “I think it should be played justice to both Paul and Andy. If Paul wins the honors as mat now stand, he might have the feel- ing he has an honor which is ques- tionable. T think the matter should be settled as decisively as the team race was decided.” in small squads of candida «d out for the practice ses the Falcons, Corbin Red All-Kensington yestcrday. ly winds blowing across the di monds shooed away many more as- pirants for places on the teams. S Fear of injuring throwing arms' kept & good many away from tho practice fleld who otherwise would have been out to work and this ac- tion showed a great deal of wisdom on the part of those involved. Frank (Chuck) Wojack left Sat- urday noon for Decatur, Ill., where he will become a member of the team in the Threc-1 baseball league. NEHF RETURNS 0 REAL GOOD FORM Veteran Southpaw Decreases Worries of Chicago Cubs New York, April 16 (®—The bearlsh movement in Chicago Cub stock that followed the injury to Home-Run Hack Wilson has been checked by the sensational return to left-handed pitching form of Ar- thur Nehf. If the veteran southpaw's exhibi- tion In blanking Cincinnati is any criterion of what trom him this season the Cub's won't have many pitching worrles, They already have a sharpshooting corps of right-handers, led by Cifar- ley Root, Nehf was a big factor in Mc- Graw's pennant triumphs with the Giants a few years ago after he had heen purchased from the Boston Braves for around 835,000, Terre Haute twirler was particular- Iy handy to have around when the Pirates were threatening. He nsually had the well known Indian sign on | the Bucs. Three years ago Art's arm went | hack on him and he vas shipped to Cincinnatt in 1926. the Reds a bit and was uncondi tionally released last year. The Cu desperately in need of pitching help, signed the veteran last September, Tiut his record for the last two yes shows a grand total of only four vic- tories and seven defeats. Ever since they sold Alexander “down the river” the Cubs have boen badly in need of an old pitch- ing hand or two for rough pennant weather, Nehf will fill the gap nicely it he kceps on coming back. Since such stars as tube Mar- " quard, Nap Rucker, Wilbur Cooper, | Jim Vaugh, Hook Wiitse, Nehf and I’ixey either have passed out of the picture completely ot at least p: «d their prime, the National league’s left-handed talent hasn’t been much to wrote home about. The 8lder circuit hasn't produced any portsiders in recent years to mateh the American league crop that includes such aces as Herb Pen- nok, Mose Grove, Rube Walberz, Joe Shaute, Tom Zachary, Whitehill and some up and coming youngsters. This group has been car- rying on where Rube Waddell and Eddie Plank left off. The National has few B southpaws and Brooklyn has thr: of them—Petty, Elliott and Clark. Willie Sherdel of the Cardinals is an old reliable and Nebf will help hili the portside prestige, if he continues the way he started. The Reds have a capable leftie in Jakie May, whn‘»' the Giants have a youngster of scn- sational promise in Bill Walker. The Pirates won the National lague flag last year without a south- paw on their roster worth mention- ing an dare working under the same handicap this season. The most widely ballyhooed minor league club in the minors this year, Newagk Internationals, will start their season Wednesday without their manager and biggest drawing drawing card—old Barney Johnson. The former Washington veteran still is on the hospital list. Optimistic hopes are held out that he will be able at least to sit on the bench by May. Not only is this doubtful, how- ever, but it is unlikely 8ir Walter will be in condition to pitch at all this year. Meanwhile Johnson's old Wash- ington club-mate, George McBride, is handling the managerial helm and an imposing array of ex-big leaguers, among them McQuillan, Lutgke, Bentley and Fournier, will start the pennant quest.

Corbin Girls to Meet Community Five of South Manchester. When the all-star Basketball League peared in last Industrial uintet roster a Safturday's Herald opposition was voiced by managers of teams which were not represented on the team and the result was that two of the best players have been dropped. Their places will be filled by a player from cach of the threc teams in the last positions in the leaguc standing. The team which might be better known as the All-Industrial Five will meet the Hartford Rubber Works at the Stanley Arena tomorrow night in a benefit for the Community “hest drive.

As a result Mickey Luke was dropped from the squad alto- i gether and his placg was taken by | Hilding Bengston of the Rule 8hop. “Hammy” Darrow was dropped and his place was taken by Litke of { Landers. “Chicf” Larson of Corbin | Cabinet Lock was also added, mak- ing a squad of 11 players.

Everyone EVIDENGE GRABBED IN RAIDERS' SWEEP Husband Fined $130, Wile Dis- charged—Eight Others Arrested Joseph Buttare, aged 40, of 126 High street, was flned $150 and costs and judgment was suspended in the case of his wife.

The police made a search of the cellar and by usc of a key found in the Buttaro tenement opened a pad- {lock on a door leading 10 a compart- | ment in which there was a pile of limber and upder it Sergeant Feene found two | bottles, all of which contained alleg- 1ed liquor.

He made two trips to the place {and both times bought aleged liquor. Officer Cosgro corroborated the testimony of Sergeant Feeney and Officer Grabeck. Buttaro, who had no counsel, de- {nied that he had ever violated the {liquor law. He had never seen the | “agent” until today, he said, and the |testimony about the alleged pur- | chases at his home was false. | M Buttaro likewise denied that ent” had ever been in her {home and she had never seen him | untit today. &he said she had no liquor in her lcellnr and she knew nothing about ;nn)‘lhing in the other cellars. | Sergeant P. J. O'Mara testified {that he and Secrgeant Flynn ratded | the tenement in December, 1927, but | falled to find any liquor. At that {time, Buttaro admitted that he sold {liquor but had stopped it and did not |intend to ell it again. Men of drink- | 1ng habits who frequent an alleyway at the head of Kast Main street patronized the Buttaro tcnement, the sergeant testified. Varnole lived at 126 High street and later at 122 High street before moving 10 Waterbury, according to the sergeant. Sergeant Feency was recalled to the witness stand and testified that men of drinking habits have been known to frequent the tenement. Buttare has been scen watching out- side for the police in the evening.
