-~ SHEVLIN EXPECTS TUSSLE WITH TIGER aa BEST SPORTING fustralia Adopts New Set of Weights, Placing the Limit for Middleweights at 160 Pounds. VER in Australia a convention, presided over by the Speaker of the Leginiative Assembly, a Mr Morten, has adopted a scale of weight Wmita in the various boxing classes. A ®umber of rules for governing contests Were also put through, Weighing in time will be an hour before the besin- ning of the contest. “Where a boxer from another coun+ try having a twelve-month residential qualification defeats an Australian in @n Austratian championship,” one rule Treads, “be shal) be the holder of the championship omy while a resident of the country, and on hin departure the championship shall revert to the pre vious holler.” A rather odd ruie te “Contestants @hall box in lent boots or shoes (with- Out spikes) or in socks.” Here in America our boxers are um ly able to sport & pair of shoes, Having in view a Qunbdoat Smith, famoun for the ital punch" with which he downed English champion Bombardier Wells, the Australian rule makers describe boxing points as “fair, clean hits with the knuckle part of the glove on any part of the front or sidex of the head or body above the belt.’ A very excellent rule, which any fol- 1 of the sport can appreciate, is: “The seconds must not, on pain of dl qualification of their principal by the referee, coach, assist in any manner or advise their principal during the rounds. Another that will settle many argu: ments is: “A knockout shall be counted (a) when & contestant is knocked down, and js not on his feet ready to resume bexing in ten seconis from the time he wea knocked down; (b) when @ con testant's towel is thrown In while he ts taking the count; (c) should a cont cial owing to @ contestant not being congidered in a fit condition to contin- result of punishment he has re- caived. ‘The weight limite (Australian) are to ber Pound Wel a Bavtem .
