BOXING.
TOUR OF AUSTRALIAN TEAM SUGGESTED. (UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION—BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH—COPYRIGHT.) (AUSTRALIAN PRESS ASSOCIATION.) SYDNEY, May 15. The published announcement to-day that the New Zealand Boxing Council would welcome a visit from an Australian team, but not from a mere State team, as suggested from Queensland, was the .subject of comment by Mr. F. G. Underwood, secretary of the Australian Boxing Union, who said that- no such tour could be arranged except through the Boxing Union. Therefore the Queensland proposal was unauthorised. Air. Underwood, however, is convinced that a tour by an Australian team would do immense good, and if New Zealand sent an invitation it would receive favourable consideration.
