P. & F. Corbin's baseball team stepped a rung higher in the race for the state Industrial champion noon, when it topped the Hendey Machine Co. team, Torrington's en- try, by the score of. to 5. As this was semi final contest, the vic- tory gives the Corbin team the right to meet the Light & Power of Stam- ford for the state industrial title next week, possibly on Saturday.
 Adopting a careless attitude dur ing the game and seemingly imbued with an over-confident spirit, the local club had a narrow squeak from having the score tied in the first half of the ninth and possibly averted defeat by the brilliant work of Jagloski, local mound ace. With the bases loaded, the score to in his favor and only one out, Jagloski famed two of Tor rington's best hitters for the second and third out, shutting out the vis- iting team without run in the session and saving the game for his team.
 The Corbin team got four runs in the first three innings. The team whaled out three more in the sixth and added it's final counter in the seventh. Torrington had two big in nings and it seemed that the team might tie the count and even carry victory away only for the excellent | backing Jagloski received from his mates and his fine work in the box.
 The ninth inning provided plenty of thrills for the packers of the To- cal team while it raised the Tor rington fans hopes sky high only to have them dashed down to earth again as Halloran and Killiany fail ed to deliver the blows that might have tied the count It was fitting ending to a game that was marked by thrills throughout.
 The visiting team failed to show the class that generally characteriz- es the play of the Corbin nine but at the bat the team was as strong. Jagloski was hit freely at times and was touched up for 10 solid bingles during the game. Torrington used three pitchers in an effort to stop the Corhin crew but the local "mur- bingles.
 "Goody" Preisser drew pass in the first inning, stole second and rode home on Mickey Huber's hit. Huber was put out at second but Preisser had scored before the out was made. This gave Corbins their first run. Bergeron walked to start off in the second inning, was sacri- feed to second by Bates and came home as Lipka doubled down the left field line. This was number two.
 Jasper singled to start the third inning off. Preisser lifted a high fly to right field. The fielder went after it but fell while running and the ball fell for a hit. Jasper made third on the play. Quinn failed to catch one of Klonskie's fast ones and Jasper came in. Preisser had stolen second and went to third on the play. He came in on another pass ball by the Torrington catcher. This made it fouNto nothing for the Cor bin team.
 Torrington made a bid to score in the second frame when, after hitting a double, Sherpinskie tried to reach home on single to left. Preissers S perfect throw to Mangan at the plate caught him dead. In the fourth, however, Torrington began to hit and hits meant runs. Halloran drove one into right field for a single. He started to steal second and Mangan's throw had him a mile Lipka, however, made a complete huff of the ball and he was safe Killiany struck out but Halloran went to third as Lipka was throw ing Hanson out at first
