GIRL SEX NOVEL. Nolllo Pantor Downce,

There is not the slightest roa-| son why this, country should be in a position any longer to mo- nopolise the championship of the world (professional and amateur) year-old Londond school-girl, at any sport. If we can koep has amazed the bitoray world round about or near the top it is with her novel, "The Shoreless) as much as wo can exnect. Seas." Her, first book with a The troublo in England is not young married homan, who, on that we take our sport too sori- meeting her first lovor, finds abo ously as some people imagine, but still has a place in her heart for that we do not take it seri him.

ously enough. In the United States a boxur would have to win thirty or forty fights and go through yeare of gruelling train- ing before a promotor would puti him forward in a big-fight. In this country a boxer will only bo in training for about six months. bafore he is matched against a well-known man.

It should be realised thist a boxer who aspires to become! champion of the world has a longį and dreary journey before his dream can ho realised. Much more could be done to encourago the boys of this country boxing halls and instructors, for instance, in overy city,, town, and village, teaching the principles of tha Kame to the youth. A lot is already done in this respect, but thoro must be thousands of boys] who for want of opportunity never put on a glove.

In our failure to proper facili ties for the boys-especially the pour boys to learn this national: sport lies the secret of our failure to produco champions, or oven to retuoii 다 docont standard inf boxing.

Another reason why our pro- fossional boxing is so low in quality is the absence of any body in this country having con- trol of the sport. Any Tom, Dick, or Harry dan promoto fights and leave big men strandad owing to mismanagement, as was shown by the recent Wembly fiasco and other examples of a similar naturo.

In France and America boxing is under oao hoad, champions are named, and when challenged have to fight at the orders of tho controlling body,
