Boxing Season Opens
The Nelson boxing season got away to an excellent start when the association staged a programme of 13 events in the Y. M. C. A. stadium. The majority of the bouts were very evenly contested and fiercely fought and a big crowd certainly had its money's worth. Kelson won the first challenge for a new trophy between Nelson and Taranaki presented by Cock and Co and A. S. Paterson Ltd, Taranaki, for annual competition.
Alex McRae, Cock and Co representative, Syd Guppy (president of the Nelson association), Graeme McNamara and George Newport (Taranaki) admire the trophy.
W. Goff and M. Crow (Taranaki) have words in a corner.
Officials: Des Bright, Alec McRae, Ashley Wells, Ian Bint
Graeme McNamara helps out Lester Hannah with the bandaging
Bill Goff (Stoke) and John McLachlan (Golden Downs) take it easy between bouts
