TENEMENT, C ASE.

Before Mr. J. S. Evans, S.M., A. M. Wilson was ordered to give, up possession of a tenement to James Torrance by 30th September. . .

In the opinion of the Wellington Returned "Soldiers' Association, military ■shirkers who declined to "box on" with the Huns should not be allowed to take ipart in boxing contests in the. Dominion. Recently the secretary of the Wellington R.S.A. (Mr. R. J. F. Aid/ 'rich) wrote to the secretary of the New Zealand Boxing Association as follows : —"At a recent meeting of my executive it was stated that New Zealand Boxing Association had decided to permit conscientious objectors to take part in boring championships. My executive mould be yery pleased if you will give us some information on this matter. What do we understand by conscientious objectors ? Does this include military defaulters also? I 'would point out to you that it is not necessary for a, man to have been convicted to bo classed as a military defaulter, as legislation was .passed some time ago giving these shirkers absolution. I need hardly say that my association will protest most strongly against these peopte being permitted to take part in any kind of sport whatever." The secretary of the New Zealand Boxing Association (Mr. W. G. Talbot) replied : "The matter mentioned arose over a remit brought forward at the recent conference at Greymouth, and.,was allowed to lapse because of the legislation referred to. If the newspaper, or anyone, has read into it, that'this was tantamount to the New Zealand Boxing Council welcoming those persons into the ranks of sport, this impression will be quickly dispelled if a parson known to have been within either of the categories you mention wajits to take part in a contest under the New Zealand boxing niles."
