the first half.
The Brcncs made their two points
on a safety when Schermerhorn
and Garrett downed Dabbs behind
the Mountaineer goal. Each half
opened as a punter's duel. Schrein-

the Brorcs and made Roadway on

Industrial Leasuc Standing

The record-breaking offensive drive of Captain Andy Yakubowitz of the Corbin Screw team in his ef- fort to capture the individual SCOT ing crown occupied the attention of the Industrial basketball league fans at the Stanley Arena to such an extent Saturday night that they did not realize until long after the game was over that the Corbin Screw team clinched the league pen nant for the season.
 It Is almost certain that the scheduled Corbin Screw-Corbin Cab inet Lock game will not be played since 1t will not make material diff ference in the team standing in the league. If this is the case the standing as printed here will be the final standing of the Dusty league and I.aHar will be the individual scoring champion.
 Saturday nights games were rec ord breakers for scoring. When Andy Yakubowltz scored 15 field goals in the first game of the night.
 1t was the opinion of many Of the fans who followed the sport since the beginning of the league four years ago that this record had not been equaled. Much of the interest in tho game itself was lost through the individual race.
 Results of the games were as fol- lows: Screw Shop 4s. Landers g. P. & F. Corbins 3e. Stanley Rnlc 27. Stanley Works s7. Corbin Cabinet Lock 1., Fafnirs 57. Newmatica 26. Yakubowttz vs. Handlers Landers, tho team which started the league race this year with four victories in succession and was able to win only once since then. took another beating. For 1s minutes or the game 1t was held scoreless from the field and from the foul line.
 When the Universa,s finally game through for their first point, foul goal, tho score was 25 to 1. For 20 of tho 30 minutes of playing time It failed to score field goal. The
 score at half time was 1T to Q. Although most of the. Coroin Screw players passed lip chances to
 score In order that Yakubowitz
 might run up a large score. they dld
 some good scoring on their own ae'
 count.
 The summary:
