NOTES Every half-hour the local station will relay from Eden Park a resume of the play between the Auckland and Australian cricket teams. This has been arranged for the three days’ play, to-day, to-morrow and on Monday, although the latter is usually the station’s silent day. No permission has been given as yet by the Dominion Council to broadcast the New Zealand v. Australia match in about a fortnight’s time, but the Auckland Association has asked that favourable consideration should be given the application.
