amateur boxing champions who arrived
here week ago TO take part in the

boxing is all the rage In England and
that there is very little opposition to
it. The boxing clubs have gradually
increased in number until they are
legion. Fights are held in all the big
cities and towns afternoon and evening
and the public is admitted at various
prices.
"Boxing makes nation strong
physically said Frank Parks, the

England believes in ring battles and
always will America has turned out
some wonderful fighters and should be
proud of the fact. We've come long
way TO box your best amateurs and we
hope we shall not be prevented from
doing So.
The promoters Of the international
tournament hope to find a way to stage
the event within the next fortnight.
