There was a big blank space in his usually crowded engagement list, for when the chief executive goes to a ball game he likes to stay until the end. and usually does. The situation was complicated today, however, by a slight cold, which kept the p-sident indoors over the week-end, and which, with bad weather, might force him to return to the White House after a few in- nings. On the corresponding occasion last Year, the president surprised the stands with the accuracy and speed of his throw. His liking for the na- tional pastime was attested by a trip to Philadelphia in October to see one of the world series games between the Athletics and the Chi- cago Cubs.

Keen disappointment was express- ed by basketball fans in this city over the failure of the Corbin Screw team to come through to win the final game in the state champion- ship tournament played Saturday night at the Stanley Arena. The local players, after flashing championship form in the semi-final game in the afternoon in their vic- tory over the American Brass quin- tet of Waterbury, turned about and played only a mediocre brand of basketball at night to lose to New Haven. Things like that will happen in the best regulated families. Although most of the New Britain rooters were convinced that the local team far outclassed the New Haven crew, the final score gave the Elm City crew a victory by a wide margin. Honors galore will be poured on the Corbin Screw team players to- morrow night at the annual basket- ball banquet of the New Britain In- dustrial league. For the third time, the Corbin Screw team won the local league pennant. They are to be pre- sented with zipper suit bags at the banquet tomorrow night. This is a novelty but useful award. Several hundred fans and officials will at- tend the festivities. CORBIN SCREW 13 BEATEN INFINALS (Continued from Preceding Page.) Childs, Graham, Babson, ¢ A.
