YOUNG MAN FINED £lO
GIRL GIVEN A CHANCE Charged with committing a grossly indecent act in Martyne Avenue. Mount Roskill, a young man was fined £. 10 at the Police Court this morning. Tho case against his companion, a girl aged 23, was dismissed. Senior-Sergeant Cummings said that, in consequence of complaints, constables had been patrolling the Mount Roskill district, looking for cases like the one before the Court. Mr. R. A. Singer admitted the facts, but suggested in mitigation that the time was after midnight, the car was in darkness, there was no suggestion of liquor having been consumed, and both accused had good characters, never having been before the Court before. On counsel’s application, the name of the girl was suppressed. “For the sake of the girl, I will suppress the man’s name as well." said Mr. F. K. Hunt, S.M. “It really ought to be published, so that people would know his true character."
