A catalyst having high activity independent of the hydrogen concentration and low gel productivity in the polymerization of ethylene has been prepared. The preparation comprises the steps of reacting: a support comprising a magnesium halide compound having the formula (1): RO2-nMgXn (1) wherein R is a C1-C20 alkyl, a C7-C26 aralkyl, a C1-C20 alkoxy or a C7-C26 aralkoxy, each same or different X is a halogen, and n is an integer 1 or 2, an alkyl metal halide compound having the formula (2): R1n1Mm1X1(3m1-n1) (2) wherein M is B or Al, each same or different R1 is a C1-C10 alkyl, each same or different X1 is a halogen, m1 is 1 or 2, n1 is 1 or 2 when m1 is 1 and n1 is an integer from 1 to 5 when m1 is 2, a magnesium composition containing magnesium bonded to a hydrocarbyl and magnesium bonded to a hydrocarbyl oxide, said magnesium composition having the empirical formula (3): R2n2(R3O)2-n2Mg (3) wherein each same or different R2 is a C1-C20 alkyl, each same or different R3 is a C1-C20 alkyl, n2 is between 0.01 and 1.99, and a titanium halide compound having the formula (4): (R4O)n3TiX24-n3 (4) wherein each same or different R4 is a C1-C20 alkyl, each same or different X2 is a halogen, n3 is 0 or an integer 1-3, and Ti is quadrivalent titanium.
