YOLANDE POMPEE BIDS TO YES, IT'S HIM ALL RIGHT

SUCCEED TURPIN AS SOLOMONS' 'MEAL TICKET'

By DEREK JOHN

There's no keeping a good promoter down. Like a rubber ball, the harder he's knocked down, the quicker he comes up.

Take Mister Boxing himself, Jack Solomons of the génial smile and fat cigar. When Randy Turpin succumbed to the non-stop attack of Carl Olson it seemed that Britain's top promoter had been deprived of his main meal ticket, and might ünlah up eating his own fish.

ASF & OC MEETING

Two Hours Of Debate And The CAAF Is

"

Still A Problem

An extraordinary general meeting of the Amateur Sports Federation and Olympic Committee of Hongkong yesterday falled to reach agreement by a two-thirds majority on whether the Chinese Amateur Athletic Federation should be ruled an Honorary Member of the ASF & OC or a full paying member.

Since the ASF & OC of Hongkong came into being .. the CAAF has enjoyed at Ita medlings the curious status of a non-paying member with voting rights. The ASF & OC, internationally recognised as the governing body of amateur sport in Hongkong, has in the interim grown and is endeavouring to follow a policy of limiting member- ship to governing bodies of individual sports only.

However, having regard to the co-operation of the CAAF in the early stages of its growtli, the ASF & OC offered it the alternative of full (paying) membership or honorary mem bership without voting rights.

The Constitution of the ASF & OC has, therefore, been revis- ed and the meeting called yer- lorday was designed to force the Issue by vong in Constitutional amendments If the CAAF main- tained their stand of not wanting 10 pay

but wanting to retain their voting rights,

The CAAF maintained their stand, which offers the ASF & OC reciprocal non-paying mem- |bership with voting rights on the

Chinese Association.

The amendments on which no had been general agreement reached were, therefore, put-to the meeting.

Tho Orst amendment to thy ASF & OC's Constitution, ex- tending la the CAAF honorary equal repre- mers.bership with sentation but without the power to vote, received 18 affirmativn and 12 negative votes,, with two abstentions. Voting on the second amendment, offering membership with the power to vote, was .14-14 with yo abstentions.
