M-S-A Boxers Do
Well on Pro Rec
Card in Vancouver

Gordie Calvert of Abbotsford
won the praise of the officials
when he fought on the Pro Rec
card in Vancouver on Wednesday
night. The Abbotsford fighter was
matched with Jackie Stephens of
the home club and although he
was five pounds lighter than his
opponent, Gordie won all three
rounds.

Howard Cooper of Langley, who

travelled with the Abbotsford box-
ers to the city, won a T.KLO. over
Barney McKay of Vancouver. Bus-
ter Cairns of Clayburn added to
the laurels of the local boys *y
holding his battling partner, Bud
Welsh, to a draw.
Francis Tessaro, Roy Price and
Teddy Lawrence were also sched-
uled to appear on the card but
fates were unkind. Roy Price con-
tracted measles; Tessaro’s oppon-
ent was on the sick list, and Ted-
dy Lawrence's man was _ with-
drawn by his manager after see-
ing the lighter Calvert's fighting
ability.

Jack Watson, manager and pro-
moter of these boys and othersin
the M-S-A Area, says the boys will
be entered in another Pro-Rec card
in Vancouver on March 5, and the
Pro Rec Novice chaampionships
in that city on March 17 and 18.

Jack also states that arrange-
ments are being made for the sec-
ond annual M-S-A Schoolboy Box-
ing Championships in Abbotsford
either late in March or early in
April. This year, says Mr. Watsom
all boys who would like to take
a try at the art of self defense
will be given a chance on the
cards.

‘SCHOOL FIRE

(Continued from sront

School Board to assist accommo-
dating schoolless classes was re-
ceived by Mr. Towell on Sunday
evening but it was decided that
temporary facilities could be ar-
ranged in the nearby community
hall with the least disruption of
the school ssytem and with the
least expense and inconvenience.
NO REPLACEMENT PLANS

Mr. Towell stated today that no
consideration has as yet been
given to the matter of replacing
the school accommodation destroy-
ed by the fire. As soon as oppor-
tunity permits, he said, this mat-
ter will be taken up with both the
M-S-A Advisory Board and the De-
partment of Education at Victoria.
In the meantime, Mr. Towell said,
carpenters are busy installing tem-
porary partitions in the portion
of the community hall to be util-
ized at present. These classrooms
will be ready to receive their pu-
pils on Monday morning, March 3.

vealed that unless the tax is paid

Commonwealth Air Training Plan

tor-air gunners $3.20, and air gun-

REMUSTERED

If an airman, after making an
earnest effort, is found unsuitable
for training in any other aircrew
trades, he then may be given the
option of discharge or remuster-
ing to a ground trade. The
ground ‘trades to whieh an airman
may be remustered number nearly

75 and cover a wide field of tech-
nical and non-technical occupa-
tions. Men entering these trades
on ground duties are given an ex-
tensive training which will be a
valuable assistance to them in
post-war days. Other men not in-
terested in the alr crew training,
of course, are eligible to enter the
ground duties courses.

Requirements supplemental to
ones already on hand, have been
received by THENEWS and are avail-
able to any man who is interested
in appearing before the Mobile
Recruiting Unit when it is at the
Men's Club, Abbotsford, on Tues-
day, March 11,
