Broken lemonade bottles and flasks containing "a more doubtful liquid" were found littered on a Bongotai College tennis court after a recent dirt track meeting at Kilbirnie, stated a report from the headmaster, received at yesterday's meeting of the College Board of Governors. "I need scarcely point out," wrote Mr.. Benner, "that this.practice will seriously damage the courts, and will be a menace to the feet of tennis players." It was mentioned that a letter to tho effect that the board would take legal action if there was a recurrence of the trouble had been sent to the speedway authorities, who replied that they would attend, to the matter at. once. At the last track meeting, said the Mayor, patrons with bottles had been asked to drop them under the seats.
