Notes and Comments.

R. Young: A promising boxer, with a solid defence; would do well to study attack and quicken his speed; footwork needs improving.

Lewis: A steady boxer with an ability to take punishment; needs to practise footwork and improve his speed.

Conningham: Shows great improvement both with hands and feet. Is lacking in initiative and resource on being attacked; should practise counters, especially to the body.

Fraser: An exponent of cool and clever boxing marred by weak footwork; should learn in retreating to move both feet together, and never to stand with left foot behind the right.

McRae: An alert and speedy heavyweight, with a bad habit of becoming disconcerted when bustled; should practise counter attacking.

It may be mentioned here that owing to the failure of a bout to eventuate in the bantam-weight, and the rule that a win by default 'does not count towards the shield, it has been decided toraise the weight for the bantamweight to 8st. 6lbs. or under.
