 like \ Stor. Hook. The torbin Screw team accom- plshcd something that is seldom done in athletic circleS-come back to form after apparently having ali off night. all in the same game. Giving the Corbin Cabinet team especially "Chief" Larson and ''I'.i- 1 ly' Ya,kaskas, its due, the Ccrhia Screw team played a very poor type of basketball up until the last seven minutes of the game, bu: when it did get underway. it was | the same old cIever-pass ssing team that has on against every opponent this year.
 ! The game started off slowly. 1 Neither team could pierce the others defense nnti, the contest was underway about six and half min , utes. Ostroski scored two points. I Arbour scored q foul goal. but Yam kaskas and Nalthcrs scored again before Iasunoxitz round the hoop for a field goal Imty scored ano the count was [ 10 f. Larson and Yankaskas made 1t II to at hah time.
 YankasIsas W mt on a scoring spreo and tho count was l3 10 1. It was about this time that the Screw Shop ! team was at its worst stage. It seemed to lose control of itself. but i it recovered on time out which | Cahine. team called. Then Gennette took the ball out Of Chief 1.arson's i hands and scored. ''Hammy" Dar- row made two successive tallies, a field goal and foul goal. Arhour made the score 1T to 1T. Gennette took the ball out Of Yankaskas' hands and dribbled 10 score a field goal. The score was l4 to IS. At 1 about three minutes and a half Of the end, Arbour scored a field goal and his team was ahead l5 to 14. Thirty seconds later. Larson made d long shot and Cabinet was iE the lead l6 to 15.
 Desperate playing followed. There were seconds left. the ball was be- ing passed among Screw Shop play CTS in Cabinet territory. Sore" Shop men were shooting but missing
 Chief Larson jumped in and in tercepted a pass. He threw 1t out side and the Screw shop players again started to shower the hoop but could not put in score. Int ball was thrown to a forward, bu' Larson, a wonderful tower ol strength, again jumped in and slap ped the oval into the crowd.
 Joe Luty got under the basket 1 Charley" Sikora, the timekeeper had his wistle in bis mouth. tans were begging him to blow it. some even threatened him. but he would i not blow it until the clock showed that time was up. Luty jumped into the air and the ball touched tht rim. Round and round it rolled sikora finally blew the whistle. Ht blew it again. Nobody heard him They were all watching the ball II { it's trip of dcatil--death to the Cor bin Cabinet hopes. It fell througf the netting. Pandemonium reigned.
 Finally Dick Dillon heard the sig nal, and although the game wa' i ended Luty was fouled on his sho and he was given two free tries. Hs made one good. The Screw shoI team is assured of the first nall 7, championship if the league officlah decide to divide the season into t"' halves.
 Yankaskas played the best gam' in his career. He was shifted iron guard 10 forward by Coach Tobln who proba bly, made the move so tha "Billy" could watch "Hammy' bar row. the highest scoring guard in tn league. Yankaskas did q very goot job and he also made some goot shots. "Chief" Larson also playe' we'll. The best work on the Screv shop team was done by Armour an' Gannette.
