Speaking of Sports The Corbin Screw basketball team, winner of its third championship tn the Industrial league proved to be a real champion last night. There was probably not a single person in the Stanley Arena who believed that the better team last night was the loser. The Corbin team catered the| game without its regular right for- ward, Joe Luke, who wrenched hi arm tumbling at the Y. M. C. A. the | night before. Charley Baker who took his place. performed in excel- lent style and his team was not handicapped by his presc The same five that started the game for each team finished. Sev- - eral had three personal fouls but none made the fatal fourth. Bd Woods who has been in| charge of the Screw Shop team all season and has taken every reverse with a smile took another tough break in a happy manner last night. In a close contact ncar him his eve glasses were broken but he went out of the hall happy because the team with hich he has labored all season, was success{ul in its objec- tive. | year is The final standing this a car’s practically the same final lineup. Corbin first place last year and it is therc this year. Stanley Rule finished in | the runner-up position twice in suc- cession. Last year Fafnirs was in a second place tie but it is in a fifth place tie this year. Russwin finish- ed in fourth place lact year and this year. | Stanley Works finished in fifth | place but this year it moved up to| third position. Corbin Cabinet made a gain from sixth place last year to a fifth place tie this vear. P. & F. | Corbin was ecxaetly in thc same | place last year but the New Britain Machine and Landers interchanged. Landers won the cellar champion- ship last year but the Newmatics took the honors for 1929-30. Thus four teams were in the| game position as last year and oth- ers were in the same locality, The Gascos, a new entry, finished in fifth place tie. A voungster walked into the dressing rooms at the Stanley Arena | last night and as he approached the Russwin team he said, “Do you need 2 mascot?”" Johnny Saxe hired him | and the boy had his uniform ready for service. The fans gave him a fine recep- tion every time he made a basket, The Central Board of Approved Basketball cfficials could have held a meeting at the Stanley Arena las night; there were almost enough of its members to have a quorum. President-elect Dan Ahern and Clyde Waters, a “member of the executive committee, were in charge of the game. Secretary-Treasure Leonard R. Nixon and President Jack Tobin were on the | sidelines. Referees Ahern and Waters said last night the New Britain Indus- trial League is the most successful in the state.
