THE Marquis of Queensberry,

whose three tournaments at Earl's Court have brought over £5,000 to the Red Cross funds, is going to seek fresh woods and pastures new.

He hopes within the next six weeks to stage a tournament for the same good cause at Belle Vue, Manches- ter.

This Invasion of the provinces may meet with some opposition by what "night "be"terned vested interests, but the programme is as good as those at Earl's Court,

The Marquis has no abiding falth in top-liners. His boxing programme

must be one in which every fight is a good fight and an even-money flabt. It is not so easy to ensure this, however.

One reason is that leading boxers In the Services cannot get sufflelent leave for training. Others, also in uniform, stand out for nurses, un-

And even if the boxer, Hike Barkis, be willing, his agent, mindful of per- centage, sticks out for a full pound of flesh which the promoter cannot yield if his show is to be a reasonable business proposition.

Recently Lord Wigram received a choque value £1,069 9s. bd. for the Red Cross Fund as the result of the lust Queensberry tournament. The next show promises well. Alrendy £1,000 worth of seats has been sold. Some time in June there will be Jan open-air tournament at the White:
