Boxing Contestants and officials
As mentioned when we first published this photo, it also appears n Mike Caulkett's "Then and Now" article. (CLICK HERE for the article) Mike did not provide us with the names of the men shown here, or the year it was taken, but it is clearly a group of boxers and officials standing outside the Police Recreation Club. It didn't take long for us to discover all their names which are listed below. However, just for the record, can anyone confirm the actual year it was taken, who fought who, who were the winners, and where are those who no longer reside in Bermuda. Still resident here are Alex Forbes, Rex Osborne and Brinley Jones although we understand that Bryn is not very well these days.
We know that Arthur Wallington, Howard "Stmpy" Kirkham and Mike Palmer are no longer with us, and that also is the case for Ron Wallace. Mike Caulkett is, of course, retired and living in England, Eric Sanderson and Sys Gordon are both living in Australia, we have no idea of the present whereabouts of either Malky Tarte or Ian "Baby" Douris, so if you can assist in helping us to locate them please let us know.
