MOTORIST SENT TO GAOL
INTOXICATION CHARGE BARRED FROM DRIVING (Pur Press Association.) AUCKLAND, this day. Ten days’ imprisonment with hard labour and disqualification from driving for two years, was the sentence passed on Thomas Majurey, aged 40, an engine driver, for intoxication while in charge of a car on Saturday last. He pleaded guilty in the Polioe Court yesterday. Counsel asked that accused should not be sent to gaol as he was working as a road excavator at the Papakui'a military camp.
The magistrate said he could not believe there was such a dearth of drivers for such machines.
