 Mangan found some new players
 who started the team on the road i to q winning streak which nearly brought it second place honors. The i bad start was responsible for the ! teams finishing in fourth place. i The P. G5 F. Corbin team was q keen disappointment to it's many
 followers last year when it failed
 to win several close games. II stayed in the second division throughout the season. This hap
 pened despite many lineup shifts by Coach Bates. This years starting lineup will contain the names of two who were not on last years squad and PreiSscr who was on only for a
 short time. The new men are Der geron and McMann.
 The Stanley Works team will op- pose the P. & r. Corbin outfit in the second game of the night This team was the real in and outer Of the league last season. One game would be featured by sensational and brilliant work and the next game would find the Buttmakers in mediocre form. One of the unusual things about the Stanley Works team is that a substitute is as prominent as a regular. The lineup is changed often with the result that the substitutes on the Stanley Works team haNo the best jobs in the league. The Stanley Works finish ing in fifth place fast year.
 The first game of the night will bring together the Landcrs and New Britain Machine teams. Landcrs' outfit was the poorest in the league last year and was not successful in winning q game until late in the season. It showed plenty of inn proNcmcnt toward the latter part of tho season. due to the work of "Chick' CharloW who featured in the series of defeats.
 Now Britain Machine had some good players in it's lineup last year and it gave every team 1t played a great battle. Somehow it just didn't have the stuff to put over victories, but managers, coaches and players on other teams always went into the game against the New Britain Ma chine with respect aplcnty for the strength of the organization. Nick Arena was In great measure re- SponSible for the teams successes. He was strong both on the ofrcnsc and defense last year and it is said that he will be as good this year.

 The Burritts picked up the bas- kotball thread where they left off last season.
