join based on line number when one file is missing lines

I have a file that contains 87 lines, each with a set of coordinates (x & y). This file looks like:
Code:
1 200.3 -0.3
2 201.7 -0.32
...
87 200.2 -0.314

I have another file which contains data that was taken at certain of these 87 positions. i.e.:

Code:
37 125
42 175
86 142

where the first number is the line number of the coordinates in the other file. Is there a way to get an output like:

Code:
37 201.2 -0.324 125
42 200.1 -0.311 175
86 203.0 -0.35 142

where I am pulling columns 2 & 3 from the first file with 87 lines, and column 4 from the second file (in this example with 3 lines but I want to be able to do more)?

I've tried using join to do this but it doesn't bring up anything!

Thanks!

NAME
Locale::Script - standard codes for script identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Script; $script = code2script('phnx'); # 'Phoenician' $code = script2code('Phoenician'); # 'Phnx' $code = script2code('Phoenician', LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC); # 115 @codes = all_script_codes(); @scripts = all_script_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Script" module provides access to standards codes used for identifying scripts, such as those defined in ISO 15924. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 15924 four-letter codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying scripts. The ones currently supported are: alpha This is a set of four-letter (capitalized) codes from ISO 15924 such as 'Phnx' for Phoenician. This code set is identified with the symbol "LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA". The Zxxx, Zyyy, and Zzzz codes are not used. This is the default code set. numeric This is a set of three-digit numeric codes from ISO 15924 such as 115 for Phoenician. This code set is identified with the symbol "LOCALE_SCRIPT_NUMERIC". ROUTINES
