( “Only after a thorough inspec- tion of European boxing do I write this.

And these are not alone in their quest for Olympic honors. Ireland, | Hungary, Estonia, New Zealand, Scotland, Canada, Belgium and some other nations have developed excellent fighters for these ss.mr:‘ classes ‘and this can only mean | that they are likely to furnish some interesting battles. | “The others of the eight chosen‘ to carry the Stars and Stripes at| Berlin are Louis Laurie, flyweight; | Jackie Wilson, bantamweight; Ted | Kara, featherweight; Andy Scriv- ani, lightweight, and Howell King, welterweight. Develop Olympic Fighters “Nations entering boxers in the Olympics have, during the past two | years, promoted nation-wide tour- naments to develop strong, hard- | punching fighters. This is parv‘ ticularly true of the Danish and German instructors. “Italy and Spain are excited over‘ Olympic boxing. Their representa- | |tives have adopted the American style of infighting along with the British method of boxing. Properly |taught, an amateur using these | methods is hard to whip. “England has one of her greatest teams of all times and I think it will be among the strongest in the | games. | *“With these observations in mind, |and recalling the tremendous ap- peal boxing has made throughout |the world, we must not lose sight of the fact that Australia, China, Japan, Sweden, Finland, Mexico, Panama and Poland will be among | |those entering boxers. With these entries it is reasonable to presume | that this Olympic boxing will be [the finest the world has ever wit- nessed.” e GOING SOUTH Mrs Erwin Wakefleld will sail | for the south on the Zapora to visit ‘ her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A.
