Yarrabah – Boxing – Description – 1961

Description

Boxing and dances were scheduled to be held in the Recreation Hall during Lent, but government admin agreed to postpone these out of respect for the previous custom, which was observed during the church administration period (1892- 1960), to abstain from these activities during Lent. These activities would resume after Easter. Source: North Queensland Notes, July 1961, p. 14.
