PEOPLE IN IT
Says PETER WILSON
Nobody can hurt boxing except the people in it. It has survived since first we had a British heavy weight champion, in 1719.

as Dr Edith Not even the acid comments of such Summerskill, or the senseless strictures of cranks who try to label it as "legalised murder," can strangle this Justiest of all sports.
But the people in "the game" can kill it. How they can! And of all the regrettable things I've read recently on boxing, the statement issued by James Norris, president of the International Boxing Club-America's chief promotional outfit is the most damaging I have ever
seen.

(No pressure at all-except the one we all suffer from. The pressure of having to make money to pay our debts.)

The wars our generation has witnessed have brought what wars have always brought-disturbances, unrest and a feeling of general insecurity--that's the way of all wars. Industry and mutual trade-useful pursuits of peace-are the endeavours in the opposite direction. This concern has argued whenever it could, that free access, free intercourse and trade between peoples, contributes to peace and friendliness and security and takes the tension off where' diplomats seer to fail. For, when all is said and done, people want the opportunity to work for a living. Trade and industry, free and untrammelled, not only con- tributes to that opportunity, but is a way of life. Vessels of our Line are plainly marked and can be recognized easily when they sail in and out of the principal ports of the world, and we like to feel that they are practical symbols of this philosophy:-- lebrandtsen ·

FOR H. G. WELLS IT WAS 'SKIS'
Think around all the people you have ever regarded as filling the public eye in one sphere or another and ask yourself what is the last thing that person would be likely to demand in the way of sporting equipment. Then duck.
We played this quiz game the other day with an old friend who spent the best part of his life from the late nineties until just before the past war as a purveyor of sports goods for one big store or another to all the big names in the sassiety columns.
When we mentioned H. G. tugal and Alfonso of Spain.... Wells, he said promptly "Skis," "Not bad chaps." and if he had said that Joe Louis had demanded a Meccano set we couldn't have been more surprised.
