Functioning at Varsity since the beginning of the second term, the Boxing Club has a good number of keen members who train every Saturday morning from 9 o'clock onwards in the upstairs Gym.
The club is exceptionally fortunate in securing the services of Mr. Ken. Coveny, trainer of the victorious 1940 Tournament team, which took five of the seven titles. An ex-Varsity student, Ken has just returned from overseas service in the Navy. He is training members in the fundamentals of the game, and he along with the committee, makes an appeal for all those interested in boxing to attend for instruction. The aim is to have a well-trained team for the next Faster Tournament, and not to repeat the mistake of cramming training into the short period of six weeks or less.
