PREMISES USED AS GAMING HOUSE
(P.A.) AUCKLAND, October 6. Recent visits by detectives to premises in the city resulted in the appearance in the Magistrate’s Court of four men and a woman for a breach of the Gaming Act. Fines totalling £3OO were imposed by the Magistrate, Mr J. Morling. All the defendants pleaded guilty. For being the occupiers of premises used as a common gaming house, William Brem-
ner Allan and Stanley Thompson were each fined £75, and Lionely Arthur Baker was fined £5O. For assisting in the management of a gaming house Christopher Garnett Molloy was fined £lOO. On a charge of assisting in the management Beulah Hilda Blanche Curtis, married, was convicted and ordered to come up for sentence if called within a year, the Magistrate stating that if she kept away from betting nothing more would be heard of the matter.
