The Tournament at ku Ropa Co be pleased to enlighten the Royal Theatre on Saturday was shareholders by answering the following in

every way a success. "The Theatre was questions;- well Alled, and amongst the spectators were H. E. the Governor (Sir R. Stubbs, K.C.M.G.) (President of the Association), Sir Witam Rees Davies and Sir Clavid Severo, C.M.G., Lt.D. (Vice-Presidents). The Tournament was conducted under the Imperial Services Association's Rules which provide, among other points, for two referees and a judge for every con test, and, in the event of a knock-out, a silent count.

The fight of the evening. ten-round lightweight bout between A. B. Eardley (H.U.S. ~+mbrose) and B B Wrigley (B.M.S. Hawk) ended in accordance with general anticipations. The former proved too strong for Wrigley, who after putting up a game display, was forced to take the long count in the seventh round. On two occasions the gong, saved bim, and when eventually the superior-and, apparently, better-condi- tioned-boxer settled the issue with a shart upward jab to the chin, Wrigley came in for a well merited oration.

Details:-

ROUND 1. Wrigley attempted to mix matters at the outset, but wild swinging enabled Eardley to place some well direct ed blows to body and face, and the Ambrose man was leading slightly at the cloke.....

ROUND 2. Again Wrigley opened with a rush and scored freely with both hands. Eardley managed so stop him after a while with a series of jolting body blows. Then, with a clip to the ear, Wrigley was sent down for a few seconds. On reaum- ing he was glad to hold on

ROUND 3. A level affair, both men scor ing well, Eardley finished the stronger.

Rocso Another even tussle, with neither putting much vim into the fight... Roos 5. With gathered strength both went away with a rush. Wrigley's blows, however, lacked pep, whit Eardley, with a left to the stomach, and then with a right swing to the jaw, twice managed to drop his opponent, The bell saved Wrigley,

Rouse Wrigley opened strongly con sidering the way he had been. punished in the previous round, but he again made it apparent that he carried nothing much in the way of a punch. Eardley, after the Erst minute, had him down three times, and again the bell prevented the fight finishing.

ROUND 7. The Backing representative came out of his corner in a groggy con- dition indeed. He was, nevertheless, game, And opened with his customary swings. Eardley took them all without concern. Then, stepping up to his man, he got in with a clean-cat bort jab to the chin and terminated the affair.
