 Of course, the center of attraction will be the fight This bout is due to settle an old fued which has been brewing between these boys for some time: in fact, since their last meeting in 10-round affair. On this occasion the judges were unable to render a de- cision, which left the title deadlocked.
 The preliminary bouts are scheduled for ' o'clock, while the finals will be pulled off about 3:30. Karl Landgrebe will referee the boxing match. while Jack Riddle will handle the wrestlers. Chap Hodges and Homer Thomas have been appointed judges.

By HUGH $. FULLERTON. THE FINAL STANDINGS
 NATIONAL LEAGUE

Ladeez and Genlmn: The Ny 1a"k Gints and the Chicago White Sox VII again meet for the championship of the world next October.
 The dope says so The dope proves that White Sox and Giants are the two strongest clubs in America, and that barring serious accidents and with an even break in the luck. they Will repeat the comedy and tragedy of last fall.
 Cincinnati, a newcomer in chcampion- ship circles, alone of the National league, shows strength enough to press the Giants to the finish, and two dark horses are the Chicago Cubs. the old rivals or the Giants who, if they win, must win on pitching strength alone, and the St. Louis Cardinals much strengthened and a dangerous team with new leader. Tn the American league Chicago leads in strength, both of individual players and in team work, but promises this year to have a harder fight before it attains a pennant than it had last year.
 The remodeled Boston club will again be challenger, Cleveland a serious con tender if its pitching staff manages to hold up to the finish of the season, and the New York Yankees, under new leadership, is the dark horse of the race. Huggins must get the limit of en- deavor from each man and have a run of luck and pitching to get through.
 EXHAUSTIVE DOPE
 The dope leaves no doubt as to the strength of the clubs. We have figured the batting, base running, fielding, throwing. speed. ability to wait for base on balls, to get hit, to take two bases on . hit, etc, of every man in every club of the two leagues. When two or more men will play one position we have calculated how many games each will play in the position, and have struck the ratio of strength and found the position strength of each team. We have compared the teams of the two leagues. position by position, and have given them figure value based upon the value of that position. We have assem- bled the position values into team val ues and compared the teams.
 The last process of the doping is, of course, the most interesting. It may be interesting to discover that the total strength of the Giants is Il, ,623 to Cincin- natis I, ,583, but what we want to know is: How many games will they win and lose!
 HOW IT'S DONE
 To reach this result requires infinite figuring. I have done it in this manner each team I have taken, for instance, IL.

KARLO BLACK WILL MOUNT HILL TODAY Altenberg and Mcdonald to Get Back in Game With
 Soldiers

This time it looks as if our old friend the weather man, will have a heart and permit Moley's Barons to play a ball game without wearing overcoats and earmuffs. The chubby one had begun to think that winter was just in it's prime, and he was talking of duck shooting, as if the season didn't open next week
 It is very probable that a good crowd of fans will turn out today, as this is the last opportunity Of seeing the boys in practice game. While we couldn't go so far as to say that tn. Camp Me- Clellan nine was on a par with the To- calls, still Coach McGuire has corralled snappy experienced bunch, who prom ise to make the thing more or less in- teresting.
 Altenberg has recovered sufficiently to take his place in center field, and Eddie Mcdonald will hold down the hot cor ner. The lineup as announced by Moley is pretty sure to be the one that will represent Birmingham this year. It is certain that our wrecking crew com pares favorably with that of any other team, for the first five men are doped to bat between .2S5 and .3G0. Black will go the entire route today, and the big port sider feels shutout in his system, to use his words Here's the way they will come to bat:
 Altenberg, center field.
 Southworth, right field.
 Duncan, left field. Bernsen, first base. Clark second base. Debus, shortstop Mcdonald, third base. Haworth, catch. Black. pitch. The game will start promptly at O o'clock, giving fans ample time to get home for supper Regular prices will naturally be charged.
