BANTAM BATTLE.

PIlmmer and McGrath Training Hard
for the Fight Next Week.
Billy Plimmer, the bantam weight
champion of the world. is getting HIM
self in splendid condition for his contest
with Joe McGrath. the Irish champion.
The much talked of event takes place at
the Christmas Carnival of the Couey
Island Athletic Club, which occurs
Wednesday, December 20.
a visitor to Coney Island, where the
British champions headquarters are sit
uated, saw Plimmer deeply engrossed in
his training labors. He accomplished
everything with vim and agility, and
punched the bag as Rrtistically as Jim
Corbett or Bob Fitzsimmons. From
early morning until" ntghtfall, the blithe-
some conqueror of the American cham
pion, Spider Kelly, goes through an as
siduous course OF training as automati-
cally as a clock. nothing being too severe
for him.
Connie Sullivan. who is to meet Hugh
Boyle of Elizabeth the same night. in the
preliminary battle, is also at the Island,
and accompanies Plimmer in all his long
spins. Sullivan, too. is looking good, and
initiates every movemedt in the training
line that his more experienced companion
makes.
Reports from the Navesink Highlands
where McGrath is doing his training, in,
dictate that Martin Murphy, his trainer
Is working night and day to have the
Irish lad fit for his great battle. Murphy
says McGrath is a glutton for work and
does everything that is asked of him will
fngly. He also adds that 1t will not be q
to 2 shot for Plimmer when they enter
the ring. P1immer will have to punch
harder than ever before if he intends to
retain the championship.
Both Leedom and MCGEE. the welter
weights, who will have an eight.round
bout previous to the McGra5h-Phmmer
battle, are almost on edge, and the pros.
poets Of a hurricane fight are assured
Tickets for the carnival were pat on sale
