It is understood that the door receipts exceeded £BO, which proves conclusively that the public will patroyise the sport when prominent matmen are brought to Taihape. Earl McCready will probably figure in the next big bout at Taihape. The Rangers, Girl Guides, Boy Scouts, Cubs and Brownies will parade on Sunday, November 17 for the purpose of attending a church service in the Salvation Army Hall.
