TOURNAMENT RESULTS Afternoon New Britain 29, Waterbury 12 New Haven 34, Bridgepor Night New Britain ew Haven 3 16. ’ Hopes, dreams, and ambitions of | almost a decade were shattered and | unfulfilled just as they were about! to be realized Saturday night when | the Corbin Screw team went into the finals in the State industrial| championship basketball tourna- | ment but was eliminated by a more | alert and heavier-scoring Southern | New England Telephone Co. quintet | of New Haven at the Stanley arena. | The New Haven team is now the state industrial championship team | g and if ever a team was deserving| of the honor it is the Elm City team, In the first place it played the second game of the afternoon and | had to work until the last few sec- onds of the game to win. It then went into the finals against the New 3ritain team which had the advan- | tage of approximately one hour! more of rest. Corbin Screw played the first game of the afternoon. An- other handicap overcome was the fact that it was playing in the finals against a team that had home floor advantages. Corbin Screw played a fine game in the afternoon but in the evening performance it appeared to be tired | and at no time during the game did it seem to have pep. The players were disheartened to great extent the fact that their shots were not going in the hoop. Some of them were close but as a whole the team offense was a mile off its usual stride. With the exception of “Ham- my” Darrow nene of the Screw Shop players made any more than one field goal and Darrow was the only player who made any foul t to this style of pl y team had three shar shooters in Heyer, Fleming and Jones, who made some great shots. New Britain’s best scoring bet, Andy Yakubowicz, was held in complete check by Jones, who Kept after him throughout the game. Final Game New Britain scored fir shot by Darrow, but New Haven went into the lead when the game was two and ‘onc-half minutes old. It had a 7 to 5 advantage at the end of the first quarter. Corbin Screw did not score a field goal un- til 15 seconds before the end bf the 10 minute quarter. The counter was| made by Arburr.

Although it is saying considerable, the game played by Yakubowicz Sat- urday afternoon equals or exceeds any he has played in his long and brilliant athletic carcer. The Waterbury team was about the strongest team in the tourna- ment. Many of the fans place it above the New Haven team. During four years of play it has lost only four games and has becn a con- sistent winner of the industrial league in the Brass City. The score was tied at 2-all after three minutes of play. Arburr put the Corbin team in the lead, 3 to 2 but Sheehan of the Waterbury team put his team back in the tie on a foul shot, The score was 3-all Sheehan made it 4 to 3 on a foul shot but after seven and one-half minutes of play. the score was again tied at four peints on Darrow’s foul shot. Dunn made a foul shot that ‘erol\(‘ the tie in favor of the Brass | City team but Baker tied the scorc 5-all within a minute of the end of the first quarter. At quarter time the score was tied at five points. Luty made a double decker that gave New Britain a two-point lead at the stert of the second quarter. On a pass from Charley Baker, Andy Yakubowicz made a shot from a difficult angle and New Dritain had a four-point lead. Andy dribbled in and the score was 11 to 5 in favor of New Britain. Darrow made a foul shot and it was 12 to 5. Hig- ginston made it 12 to 7 but Andy Yakubowicz came down the court took a pass and made a beautiful overhead hook shot.

Not all the leaders of the clubs think they have a chance o win but with an excep- tion here and there the pilots ex- pect their clubs to do better than last season Connie Mack has declined to make a forecast for the Athletics, but he believes his great team will repeat. Joe McCartny, with reser- vations, picks the Cubs to lead the | pack again. The managers speak: American League Connie Mack, Athletics — “The Athletics are not claiming a pennant because we realize every team has strengthened and we look forward to a close race.” Bob Shawkee, Yankces — “I ex- pect the Yankees to be in the race for we have added strength in new players and I have no fear about our pitehing.” Stanley Harris, Tigers—"It would be foolish to claim a championship for no sane man can discount the strength of the Athletics and Yan- kees but 1 believe Detroit will be in the race. We are much better than we were at this time last season.’ Roger Peckinpaugh, Indians— “We may have been lucky to finish third last year, as some say, but we have a good ball club and I am hopeful we can cause a great deal of trouble for the other clubs.” Bill Killefer, Browns—"It is true that we haven't as much punch as I would like to see, but we have good pitchers and « lot of hustling young players. We should do well.” Walter Johnson, Senators — I am sure Washington will have a fast going ball club, with good spirit and a punch, and I am confident it will 19 Donie Bush, White Sox—"No one can question the fact that the White Sox are a stronger club. Hitting of course will decide our place at the finish, but at any rate we shape up better than seventh.” Heinie Wagner, Red Sox — *“Our | team looks better now than it has at any time during the four years 1 have been connected with it. The players will work hard and I am hopeful of results." National League Joe McCarthy, Cubs — “Addition- al strength leads me to believe the Cubs will repeat and barring acci- dents and breaks that are unfore- seen, the Cubs will come down to the finish a winner.” Jewel Ens, Pirates—"T see cvery reason for being optimistic and with a finc array of hitters combined with youth and speed, the Pitts- burgh team ought to be up therc in the race, provided our, players do not meet with too many injur- fes.” make a better record than in | Final Count of Contest Preliminary Game. Although the Waterbury Episco- palians, the St. John's basketball team, turned the tables on the First Lutheran quintet of this city Satur- day night at the Y. M. C. A. to win out in the second game of a home | and home series, their margin of onc point was seven points shy of giving | them enough points to enter the state championship semi-finals. The teams engaged in a home and home series of games {o determine the quintet that is to continue in the state tournament play. New Britain took the first game by a 25-17 score while Waterbury won the second 31 to 0. The higher total of points in the two games was to decide the team that would go into the semi- finals. New Dritain leads by seven points. Saturday night's defeat was the second the Swedes have suffered in three years of championship play. The locals won the state champion- ship last scason and this season took their fifth local church league pen- nant. The game was a sizzling affair with both teams showing their best form. Both clubs rang up hair-rais- ing shots to open the game. New Britain led at half time by a 17 to 14 count. More fouls were called in the sec- ond half because of the tight guard- ing of both teams. Three New Brit- ain players were cjected from the game. These were Nybdrg, Holst and Swanson and their loss greatly weak- cned the home club. Near the end of the game, Water- bury, led by Lange and Whittaker, staged a wonderful raily and man- aged to all but tie the locals. Lange shot a foul point in the last minute but Erickson gave the locals a short- lived lead with a pretty ficld toss. Waterbury's sub center circled Al Anderson to score a field basket, final whistle, he dropped in a foul shot to win the game.

There are four new managers in the National. Bill McKechnie, who produced champions at Pittsburgh and St. Louis, has taken the humble Boston Braves in hand. Dan Ho ley has assumed the reins at Cincin- nati and Jewel Ens of Pittsburgh and Gabby Street of the St. Louis Cardinals have been promoted from | coaching to managerial jobs.

Pittsburgh opens at Cincinnati, Boston at New York and Philadelphia at Brooklyn. And everywhere the strength or weakness of the clubs will remain in doubt until these games and a good many others are played. The champion Cubs must contend with Rogers Hornsby's sore heel as a possible producer of trouble at sec- ond base although their weak spot to have been patched up by Lester Bell and Clar- ence Blair. Leo Hartnett is back, his arm as good as ever, to add catching strength.

I place Ernie Schaaf of Wrentham and Jim Maloney of Boston on a par at the top of the “big boys” in this territory. Next, I rate Jack Gagnon of Bos- {ton, the hard-working Trench- Canadian veteran who recently started fistic circles by battering his way to a technical knockout over Tuffy Griffiths, the mjd-westerner whom many expect eventually will be heavyweight chamgion of the world. Al Friedman, Boston favorite who fights more often than any other heavyweight in-this section, gets third place. I have always previously considered Friedman a shade better than Gagnon, but Griffiths outpoint- ed Triedntan in Boston shortly be- fore being pummelled by Gagnon in Philadelphia. In the other seven classes, T would rank the three leading New England boxers as follows: Light-heavyweights—Tom Kirby, Boston; Jimmy Mendes, New Bed- ford; and Jimmy Rogers, Negro, Cambridge. Middleweights—Jimmy Rogers, Cambridge; Arthur Flynn, Law- rence; and George “Wop” Manolian, Boston. Welterweights—Al Mello, Towell; Johnny Indisanno, Boston; and Tony Shucco, Boston. Lightweights—Richard . “Honey- hoy” Finnegan, Boston; Andy Calla- han, Lawrence; and Jake Zeramby, Lynn. Featherweights—Bat Battalino, Hartford, Conn.; Andy Martin, Bos- ton; and Sammy Fulier, Boston. Batamweights—Johnny Vacca, Boston; Harry Goldstein, Boston; and Hugh Devlin, Worcester. Flyweights—Harry Goldstein, Boston; Ruby “Dark Cloud” Brad- ley, Holyoke: and Gene Bianco, Bos- ton. Bat Battalino is a world champion and I have placed him at the head of the featherweight division, but reluctantly, since he has persistent- ly refused to be matched with Andy Martin of Boston.

EGAN | (United Press Staff Corrrespondent) Washington, April 14 (UP)—An- other baseball season starts on ils way this afternoon with .afl the ceremony attendant to an opening game in the nation’s capital. Nothing has been overlooked in an cffort ‘to give the opening here all the eclat due an event in which such well known figures as President Hoover, Vice President Curtis, Wal- ter Johnson and the comedy team of Nick Altrock and Al Schacht taRe more or less prominent parts. The other 14 big league clubs are completely out of the picture for the day, while Walter Johnson's Sena- tors and Heinie Wagner's Red Sox start the ball rglling 24 hours in ad- vance. The weather bureau’s forecast was thundershowers. It appeared for a while yesterday , 1 that President Hoover might not be 1|able to carry out his assignment of throwing out the first ball. He has been suffering from a severe cold for several days and was confined to the White House throughout Sunday. However, he planned to work this morning and to attend the game with Mrs. Hoover and several cab- inet officers, as he felt somewhat better last night. Walter Johnson, beginning his second season as manager of the | Senators, is presenting virtually the same club that finished in fifth place last year. : Wagner, making his debut as man- ager of a big league club, was still undecided about his starting pitcher, but indicated he would use Danny MacFayden, a bespectacled young man from the environs of Boston. Charlie Ruffing, a giant right hand- er, is another possibility.- The Red Sox, perennial tail-enders, have sey- cral newcomers in their starting lineup, including = First Baseman Sweency and Outfielder Oliver. Play is scheduled to begin at 3 o'clock. 15 minutes after the arri- val of the presidential party. A play- by-play account of the game will bs given in a nation-wide radio broad- cast.
