team is in good shape despite the
hard battle with the Little Giants.
Little is known of the strength of
the Olivet five, but the little Michigan
college is usually represented by a
strong quintet and a hard game is
looked for.

recting his energies toward getting

on the strength and weakness Of his
squad in the meet with the Illinois
Athletic club team of Chicago at the
NOtre Dame gymnasium Saturday
night. Despite the fact that the
strong Chicago club won the meet,
it was only by the narrow margin of
2-3 points and the local varsity made
an excellent showing.
The work of the Bergman brothers

lures Of the meet.

Joe Yelling, Chicago lightweight,

sion in the east. New York boxing
promoters are now talking of match
ing Larney Lichtenstein's boy with
Freddie Welsh for bout in Madison

There is little expectation that at
present yelling could defeat the
Briton, but he is improving rapidly,
and, should he be able to keep with
in the lightweight poundage limits, he
will make his mark before many
months pass.
Of course, it was ridiculous for
Lchtenstein to claim that the 30-day
suspension visited on Jimmy Clabby
for his poor fight with George Chip
was a vindication, but the middle
weight has not lost much prestige as
a result of the temporary bar. He
has been matched for a fight the day
after his suspension is lifted. 1t is
not likely he will fight Chip in New

play good politics if he keeps his man
away from the Scranton Greek, for
they have fought together often
enough. Too much of this brother

Not figuring percentage peculiar
tiles, but rating the clubs on the mar
gin of games won and lost, as they
are finally stacked at the close of the
season, Manager Rowland's White
Sox are but half a game behind both
Detroit and the Yankees. The other
two clubs have won eight more
games than they have lost and the
Sox have seven games to the right
side of the ledger.
Before the present home stand is
over this difference should be wiped
out: The South Siders still have
fourteen games to pull off on the
home lot, including the one today
with the Red Sox. Sunday winds up
the visit of the Hub crew. Then the
Yanks drop in for four battles, the
Cleveland Indians for three and the
Tigers for four. Rowland's task is
to make a good showing against the
Red Sox and Indians, then step out
and whale the Tigers and Yanks in
hand-to-hand conflict.
And he is we'll fortified. The pitch
ers are going excellently and there
has been recovery of the batting
eye. Warm weather seems due for a
visit and the athletes will improve un-
