With Capt. Eddie" Barnikow in the backfield guiding the team, with Slim" Politis back In a guard posi- ton and with a galaxy of professional and college football stars wearing the green and white of the Nutmeg eleven, the management was certain that the Providence Steam Rollers will be taken into camp tomorrow afternoon at Vibberts lot.
 Nutmcgs Are Prepared
 Every indication Is that the Nut meg-Steam Roller game will be the big professional foootball attraction of the season in the State of Connecti- cut since the record of the Providence team is known to every lover of the ptsskin pastime in the state. Those who have been in touch with Nutmeg activities during tho past weeks are aware of the extensive arrangements being made by Managers James Scott, James Dunn and Saul Waskowitz to collect a team of stars that will be sec ond to none and the personnel of the eleven that takes the field should be revelation.
 The management has been flicker. ing with some of New Englands best players and money has been no object where 1t has been found possible te secure tho services of a good player.

THROWS FIT WHEN
 TANKS LOSE GAME
Man Watching Score Board il
 New York Is Overcome

New York. Oct. s.-They say thaE Miller Huggins threw a fit at the Polo Grounds yesterday, but investi- gation developed that it was only hgurative fit. But a citizen threw 8 real fit out in front of the electric score board on the south facade ot the Stewart Building. It was as com plete fit as a human being ever pro- duced. His brother, who was with him, told Patrolman Collegeman that the name was Elmer Beisiegel, and they lived in Bogota, N. J.
 MT. Beisiegel threw his fit while the Giants were batting in the seventh inning. He did it on the sidewalk on the west side of Broad way, near Warren street. For all the attention he attracted he might just as we'll have thrown it in Bogota, because, despite the fact that he was surrounded by nearly 25,0o0 people all yelling as loudly as possible. nobody paid the slightest attention.
 Eventually MT. BeisiegePs brother, Hector, dragged him from beneath the feet of the crowd and into the car tracks in Broadway. There. While the Giants continued running around the bases and the increasing crowd kept on bowling every time an lncandescent lamp spanked on the score board MT. Beisiegel finished his lit in comparative obscurity His brother, assuring Patrolman College man that 1t was quite all right and that Elmer could go home unassisted, helped Elmer to his feet and they re- sumed their gaze at the score board. But it was all over as far as scoring went, and MT. Beisiegel departed for Bogota saying that it was worth it.

F'risch, besides drawing three freo passes, hit safely twice; Young walk ed twice then made triple and a sin gle in the same inning.
 Kelly and Pitcher Toney were the only Giants who failed to connect at least once.
 George Burns great run and capture of Quinn's drive toward the centerfeld bleacher wall will go down in baseball history s,s one of the greatest plays of tho team. It will be mentioned along with Aaron Wards leaping cne-hand- ed catch of Rawlings liner toward right in the second, which enabled the Tank keystone sacker to double Emil Meuse1 off first and put Shawkey out of deep dark hole.
 Toney's showing for the Giants was disappointing but Big Fred had Q tough break and probably will get an other chance. Jess Barnes. who re- slieved him, pitched masterful fame and as a result McGraw believes he has tho series won.
 "Remember how Douglas pitched in the first game and how Nehf worked in the second and then count Barnes' said the Giant leader. "I expect to win with all three of them again and I believe Toney is good despite that third inning yesterday. It appears that tho Tanks have only Mays and Hoyt and I believe we will beat them in their next appearances"

HOW IT HAPPENED
Rival Pitchers Explain How Giants Came Through With Victory in Third Game of Series.

New York, Oct. ST had a good rest. That accounts for my effective pitching against the Yankees" said Jess Barnes, who replaced Fred Toney in the third inning and was the pitching star of the third game of the Worlds Series at the Polo Grounds yesterday. -o
 1T had plenty of speed and my curve ball behaved wonderfully well. It has been said that the Tanks like speed. We'll. gave them plenty of speed today"
 T felt cold when I went in to pitch, that third inning" said Bob Shawkey of the Yankees. T like warm weather, and if you recall, l sent for my sweater when I was on third base in our half of the third.
 When got to the box my stuff was gone. I had no speed and couldn't get my curve ball over the plate. That's all there is to my SCOl y.'

GIANTS OUT FOR
 WIN AGAIN TODAY
Manager Mack Is Sure His Team
 Gan Turn the Trick

New York, Oct S.-Their batting sights clear and set for sharpshoot- ing, the New York Giants were de- tGrmined today to Lombard the Tank eWirling selection and gain an even footing in the worlds series. They hammered Tank pitchers for worlds series record of 20 hits yes- terday and won the game 13 to 5 after dropping the first two without :4 score.
 Manager McGraw intimated hr would send "Shufflin" Phil Douglas, the spitballer, to the mound in an effort to hold the Tank sluggers while his men march to their second vic tory. Phil. hurled a great game in the opening contest against Mays, put the underhanded finger was craftier. Harry Harper, the Hackensack, N. J., hurler who makes up Higgins portsided mound staff is most likely to oppose Phil and if the Jerseyite is in form the fourth. game of the series may develop another pitchers battle. All the dope issued previously tc the series by the so-called experts has Inater:alized, but it turned out they
 
 said Tanks and vice versa.
 They prediced the Giants would snow the greatest dash, speed and re- win their game by horsehide maul- h4s. In the first to games the Tanks wen by dash and resourcefu1ness and in the third, the Giants punched their way to triumph.
  win be it by dash or punch, while the Tanks with one game to the good. still are all optimism. Huggins prob ably will not call on Shawkey, Quinn or Collins again in this series. as the Giants got to them hard yesterday. If Harper comes through today he be- iieves the series will be on ice for the Americans with Mays and Hoyt in re- serve for the needed two games. Ii Harper fails, Huggins will have to rely on his two aces for an "iron man" stunt.
 I Behind the bat yesterday dny.ier 1 performed well for the Giants. He 1 wielded the stick with precision too and he will be sent into the game again today. Waffle Schang will per- tcrm for the Tanks, as usual. Suffering from an abscess on his arm as a result of his base stealing in the second game, Babe Ruth may be compelled to watch the fourth | contest from the bench. Wilson <"Chick") Fewster will take his place 1 Tn the event that Babe is unable tc play. Ruth, who still lacks a series home run, may get chance to pinch hit however if the occasion warrants
 My greatest desire right pow,' sad the Babe lis to crown my world series play with "a homer into the stands. I'd die easy if I coulG do it." .....

Ell PasO Company
To Build Bridge
Across San Pedro

TOMBSTONE, Dec. 6.-The' FL Pa.
so Bridge & Iron Company was this
afternoon awarded the contract for
building the steel bridge across the
San Pedro river at Palominas. Con-
struction work, however, will not
start until July 10th, 1922, in the next
fiscal year This action was taken
owing to lack of funds in the road de-
partment.
There were three bidders. ]. NJ
Sparks, of Douglas, The Midland
Bridge Company, OF Kansas City, and
the Ell Paso Bridge & Iron company.
The latter company was the lowest
bidder, offering to build class A
bridge for $14,400, or a class + bridge
for $4,000. The difference in the
two bridges is in the overhead beams
and the Glass A was accepted.
Under the contract awarded by the
board, the county is to receive the
benefit of amp saving in price of ma.
terials, if a drop occurs between now
and July 10th, 1922. Should a rise in
prices of materials occur, the county
will assume that also, although w. F.
