Pictured above is the Corbin
 Screw basketball team, champions
 of the mems Y. M. c. A. Industrial League. The work of the team this :, year was impressive for the most I part and from the heoinning of the
 season the Screw Shop men never
 lost their hold of first place.
 The team was coached by Frank !, lHank) Arbour. who also played a
 guard position and it was managed
 by William Hickie. Although 1t SCOT 1 cd several victories outside of the 1 league it's best record was made dur 1 ing the league season. Of 13 games l played only two were lost. It won
 the series with Fafnir Bearing,
 Landers. New Britain Machine, and
 Stanley Rule and had an even break
 with P. & r. Corbins and Stanley | Works, the only two industrial
 league teams to win over this years champions.
 1 Corbin Screws basketball season will end tomorrow night in game with Corbin Cabinet Lock at the '. M. c. A. The game will have no bearing on the final standing of the
 league, but it will determine, without
 question, who will be the leading
 scorer in the league.
 Captain Andy Yakubowitz play
 ed a very prominent part in the teams play this year. His work in the last few games was especially worthy of notice. He carried the brunt of his teams attack in the final hot games when other clubs
 were pushing the Screw Shop men | for honors. He scored 15 field goals in the game against l.anders and for l time he passed LaHar for the lead
 ing scoring honors. If he can score 14 field goals tomorrow night he will
 be the individual scoring champion. The greatest find of the season was
 Julie" MiecZk kowski, left forward. He played on last years State Trade school team. The work of such stars as Rockwell, Arena, and others put
 him in the background to a certain 't'Nht pd1 Iit BdFliNu Iio way lIoill
 the substitute ranks to regular job on the Screw Shop team this year. He
 was the hero of an important over time game during the league season and was one of the stars in the games with Hartford Rubber Works.
 Joe Luty continues to show the improved type of basketball which
 made him one of the best centers in
 the league last year. Critics place
 him as the next best bet to Ray Hoist, the F. X r. Corbin center.
 Hank" Arbour has been termed the king pin guard Of the league since he joined the r. X F. Corbins team three years ago after making name for himself in Boys club circles. Since then he continued his work as q member of the Stanley
 Rule team last year and 'the Corbin Screw team this year. He was the pivot man and to him was assigned the task Of holding the stars of the
 opposing teams.
 "Hammy" Darrow or Hamilton as he is known outside of sport circles
 has advanced from a mediocre type
 of basketball player to one Of the
 best guards in the league. When he was on the High school team he played q forward position. but it was
 not until he joined the Corhin
 Screw team last year that he found himself at the guard position. De- spite the fact he was playing at
 guard he led the league in scoring on several occasions during the
 early part of the year
 Word must be spoken of 1he CO.,
 operative spirit shown by Manager Hickie during the year. He had the confidence of the boys and proved success at his position.
 The substitutes. Eddie Zaleski, Fred Gennette, Ed Whitman. Joe Meehan, and kilduff were good when they were given q chance to show
