Trailing the Buttmakers by only one game, the Corbin crew has been very anxious to keep there hecause at the first £ign of faltering. it would have a chance to tie for first place. Corbins was first beaten by Btanley Worke. It was one game be- hind. It then lost again to the Stanley Works and was two games behind but with all the earmarks of &ood cooperation, the Stanley Works were soundly trimmed by the Ameri- can Paper Goods team last Wednes- day night and Corbins was still one game behind Every Corbin man was fizhting last night to keep its position. Yet, fate decreed that the worm should turn. The worm last night happened to be the Fatnir team and it was Johnny Klatka's big bludgeon tha did the trick. Corbins had scored two runs in the first of the ninth to break a -all tie Immediately the Fafnir team came in for the last half of the ninth, Venturo got on.
