Auckland—With the Auckland provincial heavyweight champion in McHugh a light-heavyweight in Barry and a scientific lightweight in Willis. Auckland hope to win three titles. Their bantman and welter men are also good. A very strong team from all accounts with representation in every weight.
Canterbury.—Gaudin. Williamson. Amies and N. Black have already won N.Z.U. blues. These men will be the backbone of the team.
Otago have a good all-rounder team with excellent possibilities. Parr. runner-up for the N.Z. amateur title last year is expected to win the bantamweight title. Adams is the N.Z.U. lightweight champion of1937.

The opposition will be strong but the team should acquit itself well. One title, at last, should fall to us.
