PUKEHINA SPORTS
' Sir, —In response to “Play Fair’s” letter in Monday’s Beacon, does he know how to “Play Fair.” The nom-de-plume of/ “Fair Play” was used as a symbol of what I like to see at any sports meeting. I do agree it is very easy to bawl insults from the side line, also from inside the show ring as “Play Fair” will know! Being also a person of average common sense my first consideration in supplying a sports result would be to “include” the main event of the dav, namely the open jump. I really think “Play Fair” you must have read my letter from a crooked angle. If there was any moaning in it, it certainly wasn’t over any omission, read it again at a straight angle “Play Fair.” However I don’t profess to be a Beacon reporter only a lover of fair play.
Yours etc., “FAIR PLAY.”
