Policemen as Footballers.
[Per Press Association.] -"=* Wellington, Janutrj 3. The Commissioner of Police has issued a circular, in which he says that the practice of members of the police force belonging to football and athletic clubs having been found to interfere considerably with discipline and duty, it is notified for general information and the gaid* ence of all concerned that in future no leave will be granted to enable members of the police force to play in football matches or travel with football or athletic teams, and they are strongly recommended not to become members of such associations, which must in many ways interfere with the proper performance of their duties.
