Jack Petersen, pluckiest and greatest heavy-weight fighter this country has produced for many years, former champion of Britain and the Empire, has decided to hang up his gloves for good at the age of 25, writes a correspondent in the "Dally" Mail"
Ils retirement will not surprise those intimately connected with him, but to boxing followers generally his decision will be a great shock, as well as a keen disappointment.
Petersen has tried hard to recapture the form which so swift- ly carried him frown the semi-obscurity of amateur boxing to the peak of the professional class."
But he has never been the same formidable fighting force since his punishing battles with Walter Neusel, of Germany,
His eyes suffered cruelly in those struggles, an
Cuts were opened above each plain that Petersen was but a eye, and one wound in particular shadow of his former self. has handicapped him greatly. There was always the fear of it re- opening after a few punches.
I understand that Petersen has consulted a specialist, and has been led to the view that continuance in the ring would be inadvisable.
MANY TITLES
There are still plenty of fights in him, but the knowledge of the easily cut flesh above his eye, plus a happy financial situation, has in- fluenced his retirement.

HOME CRICKET
Yorkshire Bent Oxford By An Innings
London, May 6. Yorkshire made short work in Oxzord University in their annual cricket match, winning in two days by an innings and 160 runs.
A curious feature about York- shire's total of 444 for 6 was that no batsman scored a century. Hut- ton helped himself to 95 and Ley- land contribute 94. These were the top scores, though runs were made, steadily by the other bats- men.
With his smashing right-hand punch and his tigerish aggression, he set the £5,000 purse fashion for heavy-weight boxing in England. He has amassed a personal for- tune of between £35.000 and £40,- 000, and owns a large house, near Cardiff, where he lives with his
wife, whom he married in 1935, and baby boy.
"It was clear that Petersen's Judgment of distance and accuracy of punching were deserting him when he lost his championships to Ben Foord by a knock-out last August.
"BLOW TO BOXING"
Mr. Sydney Bulls, the Harringay promoter, who staged Petersen's last
night, said: "This is a bad blow for boxing. I doubt whether we shall ever have another British heavy-weight of such terrific fight- Ing personality.
"Only the other day I was mak- ing plans to stage Jack in another big fight, and it seems all wrong that at 25 he must now fetire."
IT'S ALL OVER Jack Petersen, former heavy- weight champion of Great Britain and the Empire, fought the last night of his life in a charity exhibi-
tion match,

He sparred with his opponent. Max Hedgetts, of Leicester who noticeably avoided the eyes that have caused the ex-champion, at 25, to give up his boxing career and the prospect of adding to his £40,000 winnings.
Again and again the crowd call- ed for a speech, and Anally Peter- sen stepped into the middle of the ring. but his only words were.. "Thank you. Thank you very much."
"It's all over and finished with," he said afterwards.
"I had hoped that time and rest would improve my eyes, but the doctor gave his decision and I am abiding by it."

Advice To Boy Athletes
The preliminary rounds of the Public Schools Challenge Cup ath- letle meeting will be held at the White City, writes a correspondent in the "Morning Post." This meeting initiated by the London Athletic Club in 1896, attracts the best schoolboy athletic talent in the country, and also the German boys from Salem School, who have won the trophy at the last two meet-
In 25.
Any attempt to gauge the pro- spects of the competitors is extra- ordinarily difficult. The conditions on the various school field where sports have been held recently are so different that the gures on paper are hopelessly misleading.
Here are a few hints which will help the boys competing to avoid mistakes which I have noticed at this meeting in the past.
