9 Boxing The Fourteenth Annual Inter-House Boxing Competition was held this year during the month of February and concluded with a final programme before a packed house in the School Hall on Friday, March 11th. More boxers entered the competition than in previous years and the closely contested bouts throughout the competition made it an acclaimed success. The officials for the Preliminaries and on the final night were. Referee — Mr. D. J. Williams; Judges — Mr. Harold Evans, Capt. W. Davidson and Mr. S. M. Paschal. The Cox Shield for the Inter-House Compe- tition was again won by Watlington House and Davis 2 was pre- sented by His Excellency the Governor, Sir Ralph Leatham, with the Critchley cup for the best junior boxer. An innovation fol- lowed the school boxing this year when the following Friday an Inter-School Exhibition was held in the same ring. Saltus pro- vided six boxers for the occasion and won four of the events in which they were entered. It is to be hoped that this may develop into another Inter-School competition and the proceeds of the evening were presented to the Bermuda School Sports Association for that purpose. This competition was conducted by Mr. C. Wool- lard of Whitney Institute, Mr. F. B. Rogers of Warwick Academy, Mr. Gascoigne of Saltus Grammar School, Mr. D. Measures of Dell- wood School and Mr. D. }. Williams from the Department of Edu- cation. RESULTS OF INTER-HOUSE BOXING FINALS Microbe Weight-W. R. Davis (S) defeated B. W. Mason (W). Flyweight— J.
