Many of them had three fouls for the greater part of the game but Emory was the only victim of t:e unwelcome fourth. The score was tied five times dur- ing the game. The teams were in a draw at 4-¢ at the two-minute mark; at 9-9 at the five minute mark; at 14-all when the game was 10 minutes old; at 16-all a minute later and when the half ended, Stan- ley Works led 20 to 17, Two minutes after the second half began the Bearing Makers went into a 21 to 20 lead but the score was tied at 21-all for the last time in the game when Swanson made his fourth suceessive foul tally. Then the Buttmakers began to pull away and toward the end, the game began to resemble a run-away affair. The summary: | Corbin Screw team is in first place in the *Y" Industrial Basketball lcague and Stanley Rule, runner-up continued to keep pace in the stand- ing in the games played at the 8tan- ley Arena last night when the Screw Shop swamped Corbin Cabinet and the Stanley Rule won a whirlwind battle from P. & F.

No American league eam ever has won four straight pennants. The Yankees had a chance to make it four in & row in 1924 but faltered in the stretch and fin- ished & game and a half behind the Washington Senators. The powerful baseball machine which has swept to three American league pennants and two world championships in three years can no longer go on without replace- ments. The Yankees need new power to retain their baseball su- premacy. They have added fewer recruits than any other club except the Athletics, but Miller Huggins is con- fident the men he needs most will be found among the 11 newcomners. The five outstanding recruits are Ed Wells, Gordon Rhodes and Floyd Van Pelt, pitchers; Lyn Lary, in- fielder, and 8am Byrd, outfielder. Wells, a tall southpaw who has been up before with Washington and Detroit, is looked upon as a certain regular. He won 26 games and lost only 7 for Birmingham, last year's Southern league champions. He is 29 and weighs 185, Rhodes, who is only 21 and weighs 194, is considered another likely prospect. He won 17 games and lost 10 for the Hollywood Pa- cific Coast lcague club last season. In 1927 he pitched for the Univer. sity of Utah. Van Pelt, another 21 year old prospect, won 26 games and lost 11 for the Montgomery SBoutheastern club and compiled an earned run average of 2.37 per game. Roy Sherid, who graduated from Albright college last Junc and was optioned to Montreal where he won 15 games and lost 8, and Fay Thom- as, former University of Southern California star, are two other young pitching prospects. Thomas pitched two games for Oklahoma City and lost both of them. The Yankees' revised infleld hinges on Lyn Lary, who was bought with Jimmy Rcese from the Oakland Pacific Coast lcague club for $125,000. lary jumped from was purchased by the Yankeces at the close of that season. He started badly last year but finished strong, | bringing his batting average up to .314. He flelded sensationally. He is 23, weighs 160 and is 6 feet tall. Byrd, a speedy outflelder who had a tryout with the Yanks last spring. is coming back after a successful Albany Eastern league club, where he batted .371 high school to Oakland in 1927 and |, S i The prospect of witnessing Jack Sharkey and Young Stribling fight for what the Madison Square Garden corporation deems the right to suc- ceed to Gene Tunney's vacated title, leaves many a sane boxing fan with a very sour taste in the mouth. Especially 80, when on the side- lines sits Tommy Loughran, light weight champion, whom many believe could easily whip the gob and the cautious southern aviator in the same ring. Just why Tommy has been left completely out of the mixup to estab- lish a new champion is a mystery when one considers the ring achieve- ments of the entries. Sharkey has successfully demon- strated in his fights with Risko, 3 Jé FALL RIVER TO INVADE NEW BRITAIN TOMORROW Strong Bay State Roller Hockey Aggregation Presents Real Threat for Local Fast Rush Line—“Bib” Albany—F: Last ¥lght's Results Fall River 6, Waterbury 5. —Hardware City Crew Two Full Games Behind st Battle Expected.

The Hardware City crew was crip- pled through the loss of its captain while the Meriden five was older and more experienced veterans. The Silver City crew has played together for the past threc seasons. Meriden tooK the lead at the start and kept it until the end. New Britain threatened only in the third quarter when it closed the gap be- tween the teams to 23 to 20 in favor of Meriden, Retano, who is playing his first scason with the New Britain team, starred for his club, he and Ander- son being the mainstays of the local crew. FKranz and Zajac went best for Meriden. Tomorrow afternoon, the Traders and Collinsville High team will clash at the state armory in this city in a Farmington Valley Interscholastic League game. Collinsville is lead- ing the league at present with New Britain in second place. The battic should be a hot one as a loss for the home team will probably mean its elimination from a chamee at the championship.
