PRINTER IN TROUBLE
SOLD UNAUTHORISED RACE PROGRAMME 1 "The worst feature of this case is 1 that the legitimate contractor was i deprived of part of his business,” said Detective-Sergeant Doyle, at the Police Court this morning, when John D. Griffiths was charged with publishing an unauthorised race programme. Mr. Hubble appeared for Griffiths, a printer, of the “North Shore Advocate,” and entered a plea of guilty. • According to Mr. Doyle, the man had j printed a programme for the Auck- | land Trotting Club meeting on Labour I Day without obtaining the club’s perj mission. He had sold the programme within the precincts of the club. The I last prosecution for a similar offence was 12 months ago, when a man had been fined £5. j Mr. Hubble said that his client had I not heard of the earlier prosecution. I He had stopped selling the programme j on the first day of the meeting as soon as he was approached by club officials. Griffiths had lost considerably on his venture. A fine of £ 5 and costs was imposed.
