Buesting of Sports Despite the fact that the Water- bury armory was jammed to the 84— 210 108~ 373 = 312 100~ 33 siz—Ties 20 23 303 339 doors the other night for the Kap- |- lan-McGraw bout, Matchmakcr Paolilo finds himself “in the hole” en the financial end. 1t seems that there were more “Annie Oakleys” than there were paid admissions. , ‘This recalls to us the story told “by Art McGinley, sports- editor of the Hartford Times some time g0 about a big benefit performance lo be given in Hartford in which (wo great fighters were to appear as the principals. It was announced through Lhe news-columns that the musicians were going to donate their services for the cause. That night about 10,000 so-called musicians appeared at the doors carrying every im. aginable kind of an finstrument. They all offered their services. New Britain and Albany are again tied for the lcad in the American teague. This struggle between New Britain and Albany for the head position in the circuit this year con- stitutes the most hectic race staged \n the circuit in years. The fact that most of the teams in the circult are able to 'win their home games but they are always losing on the road, is causing plenty of comment among the fans. New Britain is the same way. The locnl team s almost unbeatable on the home fioor hut what little advan- tage is thus secured, is lost when the tcam goew on the road. There should be plenty of excite- ment at the Stanley Arena tonight when the New RBritain. basketball team rluhnl with the Meriden En- econd game to be week. Meriden atands g team in the race for state title but in the play 4 § to an end, this position Fbe cfitircly reversed. The Corbin Screw basketball team got its revenge over Fafnirs last night when it ‘cfcated the Bearing Makers in a tough battle at the Tabx' hall. Fafnirs was the only outfit which had acored a victory over the league leaders this year. By its record this season the Cor- bin Mcrew team has proved it is one of the grealest Industrial league teams to appear in recent years. The coly other team which can challenge this team’s standing is the old P. & ; . Corbin five which. up until this year, ncver finished below sccond . Place. Incidentally Frank (Hank) Ar- burr was a member of the old I’. & F. Corbin team and is now a tember of the Corbin Screw tcam. The third team which might chal- lenge thia #tanding is the Stanle! Rule team of two years ago. “Hank was also a miember of this crew: Despite the fact that It is far down in sccond division the P. & 1°. Corbin basketball team is second to Corbin Screw in high scoring. It is reported that two members of the New Britain High school team, incidentally the two acting captains, are ineligible for the game against Gilbert High school this afternoon. They are “Ike” Ikowitz who would have been acting cap- tain today, and 8am Mirigliani who might have started in the place Ross is to take toda; They were ineligible when the eligible list was published, but in the past this has happened but 11th hour study saved the day. “Hermy"” Schmarr will move to tenter and will probably be the act- ing captain. Either Victor Baylock or Joe Bogdanski may get the call for the vacant forward position.
