TWO GOOD GAMES
 IN DUSTY LEAGUE
i R. 6 E. Meets Corbin Screw,
 Stanley Rule Battles ButtmakerS

Play in the Industrial Basketball the Y. NJ. c. A., gymnasium when four teams clash in two games, three of them appearing in the sea- sons play for the first time. The first game tonight will be started at 8 o'clock with the second following shortly afterwards.
 The first clash tonight will wit ness the appearance of the Corbin Screw team in Industrial league bas- ketball, in recent years. The oppo- sition will be furnished by Johnny Sake and his band of warriors from Russell & Erwin.
 Although the Corbin Screw team has not yet had its baptism of fire. preseason appearances have stamp cd the five as strong contender for the league title. The team has been going through weekly practice sessions and all the players have the finer points of the game down to perfection. Although the team Is new to the Dusty league, the play tlS HdN t lOIl6 DeSI III llle DdShStDdll limelight in this city.
 The R. & F. team will take the floor with almost the same makeup as it had last year when it threat ened the leaders and lost out just 1 by change in luck. The Wash Iington street crew wants to win the first game tonight and for that req son, a quintet of players near the ltop of form will take the floor. It | looks like a real battle. The second game of the evening will show a Stanley Works team that is entil ly rejuvenated as was proved in the first game of the year last week. battling the team that is favored by the majority of the fans to win the championship this year. the Stanley Rule & Level outfit. The Stanley Works will give any team in the league a tough battle this year. The five is a totally different one from last year and shows great deal of power.
 Jimmy Murphy has gathered to- gether team for the Rulers that even before the season is hailed as the champion outfit of the league. The Rulers battled in the first di- vision last year. but could not just reach the top. Tonight. the team will appear on the floor different combination than last season, but with the winning punch present. Because of the rivalry between the two plants, both of whom are parts of the Stanley Works, this should be a real battle.
 Dick Dillon will referee tonight. Last week, Dick had his first game ,and he probably wasn't as strict as he usually is. Tonight, he will have to be on his toes. because two hard games are to be played.

(BY NE.A SEREICE)

Detroit, Nov. 1G.-Ty Cobb dur ing his 2l years in the American league, has broken few financia records aside from the counties; playing feats that are to his credit The Georgia Peach is baseball's first millionaire player. That is { fairly conservative statement. Cobt | hasn't amassed the cool million from baseball's compensation alone; he has been mighty fortunate in his investments.
 Innumerable tips from wealthy hero worshippers have enabled Cobb to parlay his baseball dividends in such a way that he has practically doubled them.
 In round figures Cobb has made s500,000 out of baseball. Starting with salary of s1,S00 in his first year, he so capitalized his prestige and ability that he drew down s6O,- 900 as piayer-manager Of the De- troit club last season.
 That sum was not salary alone. It included a share in the profits of the club. It is said that Iris Speak CT and Cobb are the only two man. agers, aside from John J. McGraw, who have ever been given con- tract cutting them in on the profits.
 It is estimated that Cobb's salary for 15 years as a player averaged about $15,000 per year, making a total of S225,Ooo.
 When he became manager, not only was his salary as a player sub stantially increased but he received a big sum for shouldering the mana gerial responsibilities, plus a cut in the profits
 Despite the fact that Cobb never won a pennant during his six-year regime, his club always was threat ening and the fans were always hoping. The Tigers did a big busi- ness.
 As player-manager Cobb has averaged sS5,000 per year for six seasons. total of s210,0O0.
 The greatest player of all time, his fame has been such that his name has been in constant demand for advertising purposes. It is a low figure to say that he has earned S75,000 in that manner
 The sum of s225.0 earned in 16 years as player, the S2l0,0O0 for his services as player-managc and $15,t0O through the medium of using his name for advertising brings Cobb's baseball earnings to $510, 00O.
 A tip on General Motors which Cobb played last year brought him d profit of $150,OO0. He has put over several big coups in the cotton market and is one of the big stock holders in the Coca Cola company.
 Nick Altrocll says if he had only what Cobb has over million dol lars he would consider himself a wealthy man. Nick may be q clown, but not al figures.

M'LAUGHRY DENIES
 PLAYERS ARE IRON
Brown Coach Says Men Have a Good Time Playing Football

Providence. R. l.. Nov. Is CP-
 They're not Iron Men, they're just
 eleven college boys having a good time playing football"
 That is Coach "Tuss" McLaughry's
 opinion of his Brown varsity team
 which defeated Yale and Dartmouth to 0 and 10 to on successive Sat | urdays without a substitution and
 then romped through Harvard 21 to two weeks later Sport writers have dubbed them "The Iron Men," l but McLaughry thinks otherwise.
 This group of players has one of i the most unquenchable spirits l 1 have ever seen. Of course they are
 a rugged, vigorous bunch of healthy youngsters. all, if l may say it, well versed in the ground work of the
 game. But 1t is spirit plus that has carried them through, and, of course, we cannot overlook the good fortune that has attended us in the
 lack of injuries
 As a matter of fact if McIaugh-
 rvs modest disclaimer that his men have anything of iron about them
 be accepted, they might, perhaps. more properly be dubbed Browns Milk Men," for they have prospered on the diet that brought fame to his
 winning teams at Amherst.
 The eleven have gained in weight steadily with the exception of a time after the Yale game. McLaugh-
 rvs players have been trained to
 drink pint of milk directly after
 practice and then lie down on gym
 cots for half an hours rest. That is one of the reason for the Iron , Men" their coach believes.
 Only encc during the season has
 his team been in danger of going
 ''stale,' McLaughry says. That was , during the week after the Yale
 game, before the squad left for Han
 over. Reused to tremendous nerv-
 ous pitch during the Yale encounter
 the youngsters were unable to get
 the memory of the game out Of their
 minds, but left to their own devices
 in the following practice sessions | their running fire of Josh" and ! Banter coupled with excellent
 physical condition soon brought
 them back to normalcy.
 That the Iron Men" could have
 played the entire Harvard game without substitution was unquestion- cd and when ten substitutes sud- denly began warming up two min
 utes before the final whistle there
 were howls of protest from the
 Brown stands and even from isolated sections on the Harvard side.
 McLaughry might have let them finish it out. To do so probably would have established a football record of it's kind-three major con- tests within a month without a sub stitution-but the Brown mentor
 was wise enough to forego the chance of "swelled heads and was ! thoughtful enough to remember his "Woodcn Men," first string substi- | tutes who deserved their chance in l big game and letter.
 |' It may have been something of ] this thoughtfulness, coupled with his | ability to be driver when the | necessity arises that caused one of l the Iron Men" to pass the remark | to a visiting newspaperman. Play 1 ing for Brown? Yes But the guy | I really play for is McLaughry. As far as the present spirit of the
 team is concerned, their cagerness
 to extend the season another month
 indicates just how far they are from being burned out" They still have

 During his prep school days, Halfback Gilbert had starred on the courts as well as the gridiron. He had a state interscholastic tennis title to his credit when he entered Michigan.

GUARDS TO OPEN SEASON SATURDAY
Peyto Five Of Southington Will Play First Game at Armory

The National Guards basketball team will open the 1926-27 season at the state armory on Arch street Saturday night against the Pexto A. c. team of Southington. This will be the opening gun of the local team in its quest for the state profession al basketball title this year.
 The Pexto team this year has been completely recognized and in it's practice sessions appears to be a formidable combination. Only a few of the veterans who made up the team last year appear in the lineup but a number of new stars have been added to the roster and the To- calls will find the opposition much tougher this year than last.
 The Pextos have been practicing for the last month and a half and after several scrimmages with teams in the vicinity of Southington. they will furnish a real threat to the To- calls in their first start. The team is being managed by Martin Cavan- luRu, WHO SSdlo was en star guard, and he is also acting as coach. Several high school stars of last year are playing on the team this year.
 The locals have been practicing hard for the past month and right now. most of the players appear to be in the pink of condition. The combinations which are being tried out at the armory all work smooth ly together and from preseason ap- pearances, New Britain will be a strong bidder for the state champ ionship.
 Saturday nights game will be a forerunner of two tough games the following week. The New Depart ure team of Bristol will play the Guards in the first game of a i've game series in Bristol on Thanks

 Constitutes Fraud
 That this constitutes a fraud for which a decree should be set aside hardly needs the citation of authority. The most obvious case of fraud such as will warrant the vacation of a di- voree decree is fraud on the Court as where the plaintiff in the divorce ac- ton fraudulently ayers that the de fendant is a nonresident of the state or that he is ignorant of the defend ants residence so that constructive service may be had and the divorce be obtained without actual notice to the defendant And 'it has been held that the fact that the divorce was pro cured by false and periured testimony is suF tent fraud to warrant the Court eaeating it. specially where it involves or is coupled with fraud on the Court. as where the divorce Is sc cured without notice and on perjured testimony. .. Or where in addi- ton to perjury the other party is fraudulently prevented from appear ing and defending

 "The only changes in the teache are as follows Owing 10 the resigna= tion of Miss Grace EdIck at the Smith Street school. Miss Edith Fox is re commended for that position. Mr. Glaays L.

The grand total Tor teac.i. CTS and other employees will be slightly less next year than il has been this year. This is because there will be one less teacher at the Sawyer school owing Co the fact that there are fewer children.
