TO MEET NEXT SATURDAY. The American Pete Sarron and the New Zealander, Tommy Donovan, have been matched to meet again. The match, which will be under the auspices of the Wellington Association this time, has been fixed for Saturday next. It will be staged in the open air once more. When Donovan got the decision through Sarron being disqualified in the seventh round of their New Plymouth match, for hitting an illegal blow, the fight had definitely turned in Sarron’s favour. Up to this stage, however, Donovan had made quite a good showing against his more experienced opponent- The odds look well in favour of the American gclting the award next Saturday, but the match will again be a big draw.

The boxers he has met have been very quickly vanquished by the “big man," but, from the merit point of view, they have been very ordinary class.
