 Buchierc Stars
 In many years Of basketball it is probable that Mickey Buchiere had few nights as good as last night when he scored IT of his teams v points in a victory over the Corbin Cabinet Lock team.
 The game was unintercSting In the early stages the score was low. the first half count being to in favor of Fafnirs. Then the Bearing Makers offense which was furnish ed by Buchicre and Havlick began to send the ball through the strings until at one time the count was 70 to s.
 At this time Coach Johnny Tobin decided to try two substitutes in the game, Linden and ColWick. a, couple Of rangy boys. The Cabinet Lock te am began to function and in the final minutes it began to look as if lt might pull out for a victory. Credit for the great comeback should go 10 Colwick who cag Il three field goals in succession. This was the second time in a week that substitute had entered the contcs and played a star role. Last week Dave Belon had the honor.
 Although Buchierc played a good offensive game the best floor game vas played by Gerry" Gierochow- ski who featured in Fafnr's zouc defense.

It is not likely that Horton Smith will duplicate his winning streak Of last year when he skinned the cream of the winters golfing prizes from Oklahoma to Florida. Or is anyone else likely 10 prove such a consistent winner. Since the Sunday that Jones met Espin osa in the play off for the Open championship at Winged Foot last June. Smith has been transforming with Walter Hagen. He is again likely to find himself over-golfed, just as in last winters tournaments and his trip to Europe last spring took the edge off his game, as was indicated by the Joplin players form at Mamaro- neck.
