Heavyweight:

McRae v. Hansen.—This proved the most interesting of the preliminary bouts. Both fighters were aggressive and made a willing go of it. In the first round McRae connected frequently with his left to Hansen's face. The second round opened quietly, but Hansen soon livened the proceedings by a right hook to McRae's jaw, which took McRae off his feet. McRae used his reach to advantage during the remainder of the round, and kept well out of his opponent's way. Hansen was leading by a narrow margin at the close of this round. The last round saw McRae walk into Hansen in great style. Hansen tried to force the fighting, but ran to McRae's left continually. The verdict was in McRae's favour.

The men selected to represent the College at the Easter Tournament were: Heavyweight, McRae; Middleweight, Hutchinson; welterweight, Coningham; lightweight, Lewis; featherweight, Meltzer; bantamweight, no entrant.

It is desired by the Committee that all those interested in the sport will endeavour to come along on Wednesday nights which is the night the Club has the use of the gymnasium. If only an hour is put in at skipping, or the punch-ball, or a little light sparring is done, it all helps to quicken one, and is a big step towards getting the necessary wind to last the three minutes required for the tournament purposes. No man should hesitate because he cannot use his fists. A beginning has to be made at all things, and after a few nights with the gloves on the novice will lose all his timidity and be able to "mix it" with the best. If there are sufficient members the services of a professional coach will be obtained for the latter part of the season.
