Amateur boxing is once more being boosted In England. For a time the amateurs were considered out of the running, but of late they have made great strides for popularity and many shows are being staged by the clubs affiliated with the Amateur Boxing association Over thirty clubs around London have branched out of late and some very interesting battles have taken place. The amateurs over there hold to the old rules of two rounds of three minutes each and the third of four minutes. At the recent meeting of the Amateur Athletic Union of America W was decided to cut out the old rule of four minutes for the final round and each, the same as the profeeslonals. In England the amateurs are permitted at various timei -- that is, the champion, to box d 'exhibitions" with professionals. That Is something the A.

Two prominent events that have headlined the international competition are not expected to take place this year one certainly. These are the International polo games and the yacht races for the Americas cup. It has been definitely announced that England will not challenge this year for the polo trophy, The sentiment in that country, following the defeat by the Americana last spring, waa that a reconstruction period should be entered Into by the Eng 'ah. and the challenges should not be forthcoming until this had been completed No America Cup Race. has While no official announcement been made.

Tha record for 23e yarns probably stands out as Paddock's best mark, since it Is a distance more often run by sprinter and he lowered It fur more decisively than tha others.
