The slugging Tiger outfielder however, apparently seems destined to win the honor which he has held every other year since 1921 because of his spectacular squirt with the willow. Last week Heilmann was four points behind Simmons, who is making a great cf- fort to become the first right hand batter to gain the batting champion ship of the American league in many years.

The AllNew Britain Football team is off today to meet the Yel- low Jackets Of Franktord, Pa, in one Of the hardest games of the year. This will be followed by the appearance Of the Yellow Jackets in this city tomorrow in the second tilt of the double header.
 The two Hartford football teams square off tomorrow in the open ing games of the season. Eddie Barnikow, who was for quite d time connected with New Britain as a backfeld man, is back in Hartford with the Giants this year. Eddie started off the season last year with the Hartford Blues, but later came 10 New Britain and finished the sea son in this city.
 The All-Hartfords will play their home games at Clarkin Field. the home of the Hartford Eastern League Baseball team, while the Giants will hold forth at the East Hartford Nelodrome.
 The Giants are making the big gest splurge in the Capital City. The management there has collect cd together likely looking bunch of players. and this outfit will prob ably be the one that New Britain will meet later on.
 Hunt. Barnikow. Rogers, Keonan. Foley and number of others, in cluding Silent John" Davis, have been picked at the nucleus of the team. Dave Hayes. the East Hart ford coal man. is coach of the squad Dave held that position with tho All-New Britain team last year, and he should he able to form q good squad in Hartford.
 Tho All-NeW Britain mana aeement was successful in having President Joseph Carr of the National Foot ball League substitute Albert W. Keane of Hartford as umpire in Sundays game instead Of James Keefe of Waterbury.
 One of the articles of agreement between the locals and the Yellow Jackets was that President Carr be allowed 10 appoint National League officials to work at the game. As soon as keefcs name was men toned, the local management lodged a protest, and the change was made yesterday afternoon.
 keefe was an official for the Hartford Blues last year and. dr- cording to the statements of the men in charge of the New Britain team. he was not an efficient um- pire. The three men were unani- nous in deciding 10 send the pro- test to the National League presi- dent.
 The Herald will bulletin the re- suit of the game in Philadelphia today.

Eugan, Third J$a~cman.

DuCan, q former Star at Holy Cross and a veteran Of ten years in the majors, has bean playing his usual good game in the field this season, but has been unable to get the range with his batting eye. TIja season mark Of anout .253 puts him down among 'ho pitchers in hitting. The records show. however, that he bats his best in the heat of world series conflict Against St Louis last year his percentage was .3$&.
 On his work on college diamonds, Du@an won a hearing with Phlla- dolphia in 1917, made good and stayed with the Athletics until 1922 when he was traded to Boston in q liz winter trade involving Washing ton and Philadelphia. The follow ing July he was traded 10 the Yauk- cos where he saw service in the world series championship battles oi 1922, 1928 and 1926.

PIRATE SKETCHES
Harris, First Ba~enan,

Waived out Of the American League in 1926 after II years or baseball, Harris joined the Pirates this season to prove that age will be served" Before the season was talf over he had hatted his way to q place in the charmed circle of National League Litters.
 Bay City, New York AmerIcans. Chattanooga, Cleveland and Boston Americans Were served by Harris from 1913 to 1925, when he went to Washington. Playing first base and the outtield, he battcd .313 in 1925 with the Senators and in the world series he hit to the tune of a .440 percentage. Joe, naturally, slowed up in 1926, but he retained lis batting eye and when he was waived from the American circuit Pittsburgh was glad 10 get him. At the outset the Pirates intended us- lHg Harris as q pinch hitter and a relief first baseman. but his playing earned him a place as regular His fielding Was about 900 and his batting .3t5. Joe saomed 70 be the keystone of the team When he slumpod, the whole outfit fell down, but when h" was hitting, the entire team went on d rampage at the plate

 Breaking into the majors with tho Chicago Cubs in 1922 after playing with Tacoma. Portland and Omaha, Grantham joined the Pirates in the big winter trade of 1925 which brought Aldridge and Niehaus to Pittsburgh and sent Maranvil", Grimm and Cooper to the Windy City. A diversified baseball career in which he played everywhere but behind the bat and on the mound made him one of the most rrized utility men in the league.
 In his only world series expori- onoe, the Pittsburgh Washington duel of 1925, Grantham fell into q batting slump, getting only two hits in five games

often consideration for the heating
problem is lacking until after the bit
ter experience of uncomfortable tenn
peratures. Few families realize the
money spent for fuel each year in eX-
cess of what requirements would be
with q proper and suitable plant.
Fuel Bills Too High.
The average waste of fuel in the
greater number of our homes during
one heating season is enough to pay
onefourth of the fuel bill for the next
year. We have been dubbed a nation
of wasters. Nowhere may this indlct-
ment be more justly applied than to
the fuel bill for home heating. No
where is there greater evidence of
lack of appreciation Of mounting
fuel costs than in the home-heating
budget. Nowhere throughout the en-
tire home establishment is the clarion
call to wake up" more urgent than
with our home-heating problems.
To heat the building to 20 degrees
in zero weather" is A term commonly
"shoveled out" to the unsuspecting
home owner.
Few plants, indeed. justify such
claim. Poor or absolutely wrong in de
sign inadequate in capacity, improper

in installation, each attribute con-
tributes its share for uncomfortable
temperatures and excessive fuel bills.
With the home-heating problem
properly handled as to design, in
stallaticn and operation, most home
owners may warm the home for health
and comfort at a reasonable and saw
ing fuel expense.
Coordination Essential.
Coordination is essential. Heat re-
duirements for given structure are
fixed. The delivery of heat from the
plant must compensate for loss to the
outside The chimney, piping system
and heater must be properly related,
one to the other. The fuel must he
suited to the conditions under which
it will be used and must be burned
effectively and efficiently. And the
owner must appreciate the inter-
relation of the various parts of his
problem to assure an economical and
satisfactory heating plant.
Each week we will discuss a feature
of home heating planning and opera
ton. We will advise with respect to
coal and oil burning. We will explain
