CLlNCH AND LARRIVIER
 READY FOR TOUGH BOUT
Promising Welterweights to Furnish Features at This Weeks Amateur Tournament Waterbury Boy Re- garded as the Favorite - Local Battler Confident That He Can Turn In Win - Other Feature Matches On Card-Several Teams of Scrappers Are Entered.

Two of the most promising anna teur welterweight fighters in the state will meet Friday night in the feature bout of the Mohawk 4. '. tournament to be conducted at th, Tabs hall. They are Leo I>arrivier Of Waterbury and Johnny Clinch of New Britain As it happens, both are taking part in an unofficial elim- nation tournament to discover the leading welterweights in the state
 In recent weeks. both have battled Billy Taylor of Hartford and each has lost q decision to the Capita City boy. Clin"h lost in four rounds but was not given chance to meet Taylor again. I.arrivier last in three rounds but the decision was so un- popular that he was given a return bout the folio wing week and he SCOT ed decisive win over the blonde- matched scrapper from Hartford.
 Since Clinch fought Taylor. it has been discovered that he appeared that night against the advise of his physician. He had been suffering from q hard cold. This had affected his weight so that he was consider ably weakened when he showed in the ring that night.
 Taylor. following his defeat at Larrvier's hands week ago last Friday, has heen cautioned against fighting for sometime due to a run- down condition and for that reason his scheduled meeting with Larrivier in this city tomorrow night, was postponed indefinitely.
 Clinch has been anxious to meet Taylor again and he promptly en- tered this weeks tournament Tay- lor's elimination caused hin, to be paired with Larrtvier in the draw and although the Waterbury boy is by far the favorite 10 win. they are of the opinion that, if right. Clinch can take the Franco-American boys m easurc. The bout should be one of the best attractions of the indoor season.
 Several other feature bouts have been planned by the officials Of the club. Included among those who will appear are Vic Carlson of Ter ryville, Frank Columho of Windsor Locks, Jack O'Dowd of Terryvii,e, Gene Martin of Terryville and Joe Dignal of Waterbury.
 Team from Bristol, Windsor Locks Hartford and New Britain will also be entered and an excellent card Of 1o bouts is promised the fans. The first Of these will be staged at . o'clock tomorrow night and the others will follow closely after,

ATLAS HAS EDGE
 0N NEW BRITA A|N
New Haven Crew Meets Locals
 Saturday for League Title

l One of the most bitter basketball | battles Of the present season will he i fought out at the Stanley Arena on
 Saturday night when the Atlas five
 of New Haven, winner of the first half championship in the Connecticut state Basketball league. and the
 New Britain team meet The con- test will decide the cham pionship of | the second half. The result Of last 1 Fridays game between the two in New Haven, which was won by the Atlas, left the two quntets dead locked in a tie for the second half 1 title.
 1 X number of ifs" enter into the Cope column with regard 10 the out come of Saturday nights game, If New Britain wins, another game will isc played 10 determine the state championship. II the Atlas crew wins, ii will be solely and urqu"s- tonably the champion quintet of Connecticut.
 The Atlas, in many quarters, is conceded to have an edge on New Britain. This attitude IS taken be- cause the New Haven team has SCOT cd three out Of four victories over New Britain. All of the games won
 by New Haven were close affairs except one played in this city when the New Britain team was crippled through the loss of Rubcnstein. star forward. New Britain eyened the count for this affair by taking the measure of the Alias by q sizeable margin in the last game played in this city.
 The Atlas will be without the sery- ices Of two Of the star players on the team, Lyman, center and Gordon. guard. Both of these men have re- ceived leg injuries which may keep them out of the game for good but which will keep them out for the remainder of this season. In order to offset the loss of this pair, Roth- enfield, former Columbia captain. who played during the past season, with the Waterbury team, has been secured and Moskowitz of New York tame has also been added to the New Haven lineup.
 The New Haven team will probah~ ly have Pite and Rothenfcld in as forwards at the start of the game, with Moskowitz and Botwinik as al- tcrnates. Trupin will probably jump center with Cohen and Chadys at ihe guards.
 New Britain will use it's regular lineup with Kubcnstein and Sloman at forwards, Iakzcwski at center and Sneehan and Lcarv at guards. An other player, q well-known collegi- ate performer, will be added to the lineup for Saturday night.
 Preliminary Game
 A double feature will be present. cd in the clash of the Stanley Works and Fafnir teams in the Industrial league game preliminary 10 the main contest. These outfits will battle for second place in the league standing and 6 good contest should result. 1
 Use sin.lt Referee.
 Because the mana gers could not a gree on a second man to o1flclate at the game, they have agreed to use { only one official Saturday night. /, "Red" Ball has been named as ac- ceptablo 10 both the Atlas and New Britain arrangements The prclim- mary will start at o'clocl. with the l main contest getting underway at | about g o'clock.

Tonight In Hartford, the Corbir Screw basketball team. leader in the New Britain Industrial Basketball league, will tackle the Hartford Rubber Works quintet in the first game Of an elimination series for the state industrial championship. The Hartford team recently captured the title in the Hartford Dusty league and the New Britain crew appears 10 be headed for the tstle in this city.
 The Corbin Screw examination holds q t~o-gane lead over its nearest rival with three games more to play. The remaining contests in the league scheduled for the leading quintet, make fl appear that the High street combination will have htle difficulty i'll remaining III the drivers seat. The trio of games are with teams that are lowering around he cellar position in the standing.
 The Hartford team will pres. mt strong combination against the Hardware City outfit. Veterans of many basketball campaigns in Hart ford arc numbered among the play ITS on rhe teams roster and the To- ri' quintet will be hard pressed to hrt9g home 9 victory.
 Among the members Of the CaA i.al Gi'y team arc "Waddy" Water- man ana 'Bahe' Hurley. two stars of the Connecticut State Basket ball league, while Getersloh, considered one or the best court performers in Hartford, is also included. The Hartford team will most proba bly, lineup with Waterman, Nolan and Urban in the forward positions. Hurley at center, and Madden and Getersloh guards.
 The Corbin Screw team IS re- markabie combination because of inc fact that every player on the squad is a consistent scorer. The team compares man for man very favorably with the Hartford squad, only one position being in doubt, that of center. In the pivotal posi- tion. Luty will be stacking up against 8 much more experienced opponent, but packers of the local squad feel confident that Luty will be able to handle Hurley to perfec- ton while giving plenty of trouble himself.
 The Corbin Screw team will prob ably line up with Yakubowicz and Mieczkowski at forwards, Luty at center. and Arbour and Darrow at guards.
 The game is scheduled to start at o'clock and will be staged at the hartford '. NJ. C. A. A return game fll be played in this city next We'd esday night.
