MOTOR-CYCLE DEAL
COMPLICATED TANGLE AT ONEHUNGA THREE MEN IN COURT When Wilfred Bentley was charged at the Onehunga Police Court this morning with having no light on his motor-cycle, no licence to drive it and no certificate of regisration, two other men became implicated. It turned out that Bentley had made an exchange of motor-cycles with Percy Laycock. Laycock, on being charged with failing to register, said that he had just bought the machine from Eric Betts, and Betts, in his turn, said that he had been ill and had depended on Laycock to get the deal registered. The magistrate, Mr. F. H. Levien. S.M., remarked that had Bentley not been caught riding without lights this tangled case would probably never have been heard of. . He convicted each of the three and ordered them to pay costs. In addition Bentley was fined 10s, and a further 10s for riding an unregistered machine.
