BOXING
GRIME ARRIVES AT AUCKLAND Dominion Special Service. Auckland, November 26. Billy Grime, ex-feather, light and wel-ter-weight champion boxer of Australia, who is to meet Johnny Leckie, New Zealand feather-weight champion, at Napier on December 7, arrived from Sydney today. He is making the visit of indefinite length. “Boxing in Australia, like all other business there, is very bad at present,” he told an interviewer. He remarked that although Leckie had beaten him when they met in Australia, he felt confident he would reverse the decision when the New Zealander faced him in the Napier ring.
