It was also decided that the Association should join the Amateur Athletie Sports Federation of Hong- kong.

Only Brown (40), Hutton (34), Bedser (32), and Evans (30) can look back on this series with any satisfaction. Surely fighting spirit is not the prerogative of the over 30's No! Trevor Bailey proved that.

No Action Yet Against
Punch-drunkenness
By HAROLD MAYES
We've heard a lot about what the British Boxing Board of Control intend to do about punch-drunkenness but so far there have been no positive signs of action.
Looking through a list of records of fighting last year I couldn't help thinking that there are plenty of other reasons for which they should consider the with drawal of licences from boxers.
For example there's a heavy-¡
