BOXING
AITKEN AND JOHNNY M‘KAY WIN [Pb* United Press Association.] AUCKLAND, July 1. Two professional matches were staged to-night by the Auckland Boxing Association. The first bout was a catchweight one between Billy M‘Kay, of Gisborne, and Billy Aitken, of Wellington, the last-named winning on points at the end of a scheduled 10 rounds. The winner proved himself the better boxer against a stronger fighter. In the light-weight bout between Johnny M’Kay, of Gisborne, and Jack Jarvis, of Eltbam, M‘Kay forced the pace from the start, and his crowding tactics won him the margin on points.
