Ler Harvey is ready and willing to accommodate Neusel for a side bet of £1000, but the odds are that nothing will come of his challenge. And it is unlikely that Tommy Farr will be taken seriously Into the rec- Koning. If only Foord had been able to carry out his engagement with Petersen. heavy-weights would have boomed as seldom be-

That is if he really means what he says that he is out to fight when and where there is fighting to be done. It is quite un the cards that, if he disposes of Staal, his present price. which is in the neighbourhood of £1,500, will be doubled.

an idea of getting him to aght Lynch in Glasgow in a non-tiile affatt, and there was Peter Kane at Liverpool. Also other little fellows, not forgeting Jim Warnock, the Belfast Irishman.

Montana thought he did enough to get the verdict against Bostock, but, from all accounts, he did no more than press him close, and was in every regard a less formidable Montana than he was at Wembley.

Japanese Hockey Visit To

Malaya In September

Training For 1940 Olympiad At Tokyo Under Way

Hockey enthusiasts throughout the country will be glad to learn that there is a very good prospect of a visit from a Japanese hockey team in September, writes "Forward" in the "Malaya Tribune.'

I understand that a letter has beeh received frohi the Keiyo University, not by the Singapore Hockay An- sociation, but in Japanese circles, inquiring as to the prospects of such a visit.

As the date mentioned is still such a long way off, time is being taken in conducting the negotiations.

Keiyo University, who supplied the majority of the players forming the Japanese Olympic delegation, ori. ginally proposed to come, but were this year dethroned as Japanese National champions by Waseda Univer- sity, who also proposed to visit Malaya a few weeks

Unfortunately however, the negotiations with Waseda, fell through, and the Japanese visited Hong Kong only, and did not continue their journey here.
