Giants From Capital City and Nutmegs From Hardware City Clash in First of . Series of Fall Contests on October 2S Third Game on No- vember IS if One Is Necessary.

The Hartford Giants and the Nut mega have definitely decided the dates and other matters pertaining to the annual series for the so-called professional championship of Con- necticut. The first game will be played in Hartford on October 2s, the second will be played in this city on November II and if each team has won . game the deciding game will be played on November IS. Contracts are expected to be closed today.
 Both teams have been undefeated. The New Britain eleven defeated the stonewalls of Holyoke, All-Torring ton and All Bridgeport teams. The Giants have conquered Merrick A. C. and the Sub Base elevens. The Hartford games will be played at the Velodrome.
 An idea of how the two teams compare may be gleaned from the Nutmeg-Sub Base game which is to be played as the headline attraction of q double header here Sunday. The Hartford team won over the Sub Base by a 3 to 0 score. Hartford has two of New Britain's leading players of last year, "Butsy' Sturm, one of the best throwers of forward passes in the state, and Tom Leary, without doubt one of the best re- ceivers in the state. This will be one dangerous threat which the Nutmeg backfield will have to be on watch to control.
 Sub Base Strong
 The Sub Base team which comes here Sunday has one of the heaviest and strongest lines in state football. Last week the Hartford Giant eleven could not score through the line.
 Blues Are Confident
 The New Britain Blues who play the other half of the double header against the Pioneers of Hartford, are confident that not only will they defeat the Hartford eleven but they will clean up on all the professional teams in the state.
 Many of their followers have stat ed on several occasions that the team would defeat the Nutmegs and 1t would not be surprising if the two New Britain teams met in series at the end of the present season. Fans ct tho double header will have the opportunity of deciding whether or not the Blues are match for the Nutmegs.

Polish Team Finishes at Top After Six Years Klatka Leads in Batting -Noonan and McKer. nan Tied for Fielding Honors - Begley Sue cessful Coach Kensing. ton Winner of Greater New Britain Title.

Ambitions of six years were finally realized this season by the Falcon baseball team when 1t captured the championship of the city for the first time by virtue of its victories over the Burritts. Stanley Works and Rangers aggregations. The Burritts captured the title in the City league for two years in . row. the Stanley Works nine won the championship in the Industrial lea que during the past season and the Rangers were tho leading road team of the city.
 In 1923 tho Polish- Falcon society decided to organize . baseball team. The first Falcon nins appeared in the City league. In 1s2t tho Fal. cons took to tho road and rolled up . long string of wins but were de. feated in two straight games by tho Corbtn Red sox nine in the playoR for the city title.
 Coming back strong again in 1895 the Falcons again amasssd . long string of victories but the Corbin nine again dumped them in the city champ pionship series. The following season of 1928 was . duplicate of tho two seasons previous. Due to certain matters the Falcons and Cor bins did not come to an agreement in regard to series and the Polish nine played the Remington crew for the Greater New Britain title. Az usual the championship games prov ed . jinx to tho Falcons and Ken- sington won the series.
 Last year proved to be the best season of all for the Falcon nine and 1t was . two to ono favorits to win the city title. Corbins won three straight games that literally left the Falcons daxslsd on their feet.
 The Polish aggregation started out with renewed detsrmination this year and banded toSether . strong nine composed of local and Hartford semi-pro stars. Ray Bsgisy. one of the leading players in the city in his day. and still . very good performer. was engaged to coach the team. After . poor start the team hit its stride and won game after game. Its longest string of wins was ten straight, made behind the brilliant pitching of "Lefty" Atwood.
 The Rangers were the hrst to meet the Falcons In the city ssris& Aftee . hard battle the Polish team nsssd out . to win. Next came tAe Burritts. The old tinx again a. peared when the Burritts captured the first game of the series by . . to score in Il innings.
