'a twenty round contest for the Featherweight Championship of Great Britain, George Mckenzie, Leith, the holder, defeated Harry Leach, Doncaster, on points. The fighting was fast and spirited throughout.
Leach started well, getting home several smashing right leads to the jaw. He floored MeKenzic in the third round. The latter got up mediately, but was again shaken by a right to the jaw before the end of the round. After this MeKenzic improved and with left and right hooks and upper cuts led on points fat the half-way stage.
Towards the end Leach sparted splendidly, but failed to make up leeway, McKenzie deservedly roceiving the verdict.
Leach's 19th birthday is not iti to-morrow.—Reuter Shoat, The Australian Government Trade Commis sioner in the Enst, will be pleased ito furnish upon request infor: tion and advice regarding.
