GETTING A LINE ON THE BIG LEAGUE CHASE.

Neither are Con. nle MacL's Athletics considered the juggcrnaut fin tho American loop, with the supposedly unbeatable Grove. Earnshaw and Walbcrg combination. Earnsiaw, fin parti- cular, has been the weak sister Of tho trio, with the eminent Grove himself, not too hot thus far. Rpg. CTS Hornsby and his Cubs look great at this juncture, though tiic Giants are very much to bc figured with, while the Senators and Yanks seem to be pushing the famous Athletic entry aside every chance they get, due to the sharp Ictd0wn fin the As mound work. If they repeat this season, you will sec one of the greatest fights in league hIs- tory.

MULIyIGAN HAS CARD OF BATvrLEIsS.
By JOHN A. CLUNEY

From top to bottom or vice. versa, there's not q flaw in the make up of the boxing program scheduled for presentation tonight at the Phoenix avenue arena. Every one of tho flvo bouts on the card looks llko tho real Mccoy on paper, and with any kind of q break in attendance, tho show should be well-worth remembers ing. Leo Larriyec and George Courtney, of course, hold tho top. spot with their ten round middle weight duel q standout from the standpoint of attractiyeness. Then there's Joe VIgnnll and Jimmy Paternoster, n pairing that should result in humdinger of slug ging bee, while the four round opener. featuring Stanley Nick and Eddie Jessup, looks like the real thing. Advance orders for tickets, particularly since tho arrival of Courtney is very encouraging tu tho management of the Waterbury A. C. under whose colors, the leather party will be stage.

The average fan figures that Courtney is .eoo smart" for Larri.. wee, passing their judgment on the result of both mems battles with. Al Galner, the state champion. Gainer had no trouble beating Lar rivee, while he was given a neat walloping by Courtney. The for- mer "Oklahoma Cowboy" finished up his work yesterday at Chick Lawson's gym in Watertown, going six rounds of shadow boxing, bag punching. and winding up with u rope skipping setto for ten min utes that was a hummer. Then he weighed in at 165 pounds which shows he is right down to busi- ness.
 Ready to Go
 Larrivec has been training hard for the tussle us he realizes the im-, portance of a win for him and will probably weigh 164 for the melee. Leo's handlers were well satisfied with his work for tho past week and promises big surprise when the local boy starts throwing 'ein. From the opening four round go, featuring Stanley Nick of Cheshire and Eddie Jessup of Torrington, there will be plenty of action. Nick, a natural fighter should be able to outpunch Jessup though either man is quite capable of landing Q kayo. They are heavyweights. Back Again
 Jerry McLarn, the Watertown light-heavyweight, looked good as he wound up his training yestec. day, and is favored to take Sailor Joe Kontz in the six round semi- final go. It will be McLarn's first bout since last fall when his jaw was fractured in a go with Jimmy Sullivan. However, he has shown plenty of pep in his training drills, and will be in for Q busy summer of ring work throughout Connec. ticut, his handler Chick Lawson believes. Kontz is hard hitting number, who made an impressive showing on the Gainer-Courtney card.
 Here It Is
 | One of the best bouts on tho card will bring together Jimmy Paternoster of Newington and Joe Vignali of this city in six round go that has all sorts of promise as . real entertaining feature. Paster- noster is q clever, hard-punchin2 boy. but whether or not he can wear the durable Vignali down in six sessions Is real problem. Wig. nall is 6 very much improved fight. CT, and under the tutelage of Den- ny McMahon is coming along ja
 will give Joe plenty of trouble, leaps and bounds. Pasternoster wIll give Joe plenty of trouble. however.
 Eddie Dolan, the Town Plot soutbpaw makes his third profess sionai showing in this city, with Joe Zoiter of New Britain as his opponent. They will go four rounds, with the local boy favored to win. First bout 8:30 D. m.
