Party lovaltv. 3-GflME SERIES 51 First 2 Contests for Kelly Trophy Set for Bay Ridge Stadium By LOl' E. COHEN 4 A baseball maratho between two polished diamond teams for the championship of the Home Talk Baseball League and the acquisition of the Frank Kelly Memorial Trophy will be staged over this weekend. The Hopeless sluggers, winners of the Division title after a post-; season playoff battle with the Bel-! monts, defending champions, will oppose the Shore Roaders, red and blue stockinged Division A king pins. The first and second games will be played at the Bay Ridge Stadium through the courtesy of Anthony Maceda, owner of the ball park.

The third game will in all probability be contested on Shore Road, either at the Hopeless Field or Shore Road Oval. Proceeds of the games v.ill go entirely to the Home Talk unemployed relief fund. Saturday nfternoon at 2:30 o'clock is the date set for the initial tilt of the series, to be decided by two victories in three games. The second match is slated for Sunday morn- ing at 10 o'clock. The third fray, if necessary, will be held Sunday afternoon, probably at 3 o'clock.

The Shore Roaders had smooth sailing all season. Their final slate shows 13 victories against a solitary defeat. The Beaumonts, In their very last scheduled game of the season, rose to unprecedented heights to whip the eventual Division A aces. The Hopeless nine went through its schedule in reverse procedure to their playoff opponents. They had to battle tooth and nail with their opponents, first the Lions and Bel-monts and then only the latter.

As the season drew nearer to its termination the extra defeat they had sustained loomed larger and larger. Their last game found them pitted against the Bclmonts, one game to the bad. But the unexpected happened. Hopeless triumphed over the Bel-monts to cause a last-minute deadlock, and then went on again to be victorious and dump the Belmonts out of the titular running. Despite the near-clean record turned in by the Shore Roads, the last-minute rally the Adanacs staged to annex second place and nearly walk into first place added interest in the Division A race.

Reg.irdless of all the spirited playing throughout the season, nothing compares with the playoffs for the championship of the Jnop and the winning of the trophy emblematic of supremacy. Both teams are set and each expects to win the series Needless to say, only one team will be the victor and who that will be is known as much as who will win the Harvard-Yale gridiron battle this year. Prognosticators don't belong the teams ill settle the issue by TU AY Members of the Bay Ridge Property Owners Association shown as they assembled yesterday at 46th St. and 5th Ave. to protest proposed taxes.
