BOXING.

THE 11 AW EH A ASSOCI ATION. AT LOW EBB. Whether the Hrnwera Boxing Association .should continue to function or whether it .should wind up, was considered at a meeting held last evening over which Mi'. B. MeOarthy presided. The financial .position of the association showed debits amounting to £9B 2s 4d, including a bank overdraft of £3l. Assets, which included 12 medal’s, 16 .sets of gloves, two buckets and seating, were valued at about £37. Mr. J. N. Anderson suggested that an art union .bo run, and then with the proceeds in hand, and all necessary gear for carrying, on they should run another tournament. With the assets that they had, the cost of running another 'tournament would not be nearly as heavy 12, s that of a newly formed association that had to purchase new gear. Mr. B. It. Sit. George asked what was the good of running a tournament when, the public, did not turn up. Mr. St. George moved that unfinancial members lie asked to pay their lees, that all the assets he realised, and that the committee and the guarantors meet the remaining debts, and that the association be wound up. There was 110 .seconder and it »va«s finally decided that a committee should go into the accounts, and that. 1 lie meeting be adjourned until October 29.
