OPEN LIGHTWEIGHTS. Two other fights of more than usual interest were the Garrison open lightweight contests. Pte. Flynn, well-known now to all followers of the sport, faced Pte. Smith, an opponent as stocky as himself. Flynn was the aggres- sor, but Smith fought back well. The first round saw some fierce exchanges and hard hitting, but both men entered the second round looking fairly fresh, and continued to give and take hard knocks in true Service style. Flynn was obviously getting the upper hand

towards the end of the round and shortly before the gong should have gone Smith retired.

A. B. Hines (H.M.S. Diomede) was too good for Pte. Scott (King's). The sailor proved his superiority in the first round and rattled his opponent more than a little. Smith opened the second round with plenty of fight left in

him, but there was little doubt to whom the decision would go. Smith was a game loser. ile sailed in in the third and scored several times, but his punches now, lacked sting and the sailor was not shaken. Hincs wa awarded the decision on points.

In the other two Garrison open lightweight contests. Pte. Bren- nan beat Pte. Ayre on points, and Pte. Roberts beat Pte. Robinson.

OPEN MIDDLEWEIGHTS. C.P.O. Young (H.M.S. Diomede) sent Pte. Forshaw to the boards for the full count in the second round.
