Outpoints Joe Lopes After Ten Rounds At White City

LONDON WINS LONSDALE BELT

London, June 3. Dave Charnley, Britain's bustling lightweight champion took another step towards a world title fight when he out- pointed Joo Lopes of California over ten hard rounds at the White City Stadium here tonight.

Lopes drew with world champion Joe Brown last August, but was knocked out in the return. Once during tonight's fight he again looked like being beaten inside the distance when a left and right combination dropped him for a count of two in the 4th round. But Charnley lost his opportunity through over-eagerness to finish the fight.

ARMY SPORTS

PARADE

The Spotlight of Sports Parade once more fentures departing sportsmen who having left their marks on some branches of local sports, move on to new pastures. Foremost among those leaving is the Chairman of Army Cricket, Lt Col P. L. E. Wood, DSO, MBE, of B.M.H. Kowloon, whose enthusiasm and love of cricket has been reflected in no small measure by the success of Army South last season and the Army North XI this year. Besides spending a lot of time in planning and directing ground improvements at both Soo- kunpoo and Boundary Street he was the prime mover in starting off last season's most sue. cessful Army Cricket League.
