GREYTOWN

WAR AND SPORT y A DULL SEASON AHEAD. (“Times-Age” Special.) The war has practically killed sport in Greytown and the town which was once the home of Wairarapa football, and where properly organised football first came into being, will again be without a football team, due of course to the youths of military age being in uniform. Hockey is played only by boys under military age and it is questionable whether, outside the ladies’ games, there will be much hockey seen in Greytown in the coming season. Cricket has been “dead” for some years, .where once it flourished vigorously. Personal Items. The Rev. J. A. E. Preston, of the Greytown Presbyterian Church, will leave at the end of the month for Inglewood. Mrs G. Robinson, of Christchurch, is the guest of Mrs S. Shedden, Main Street. TOWN HALL “APPOINTMENT FOR LOVE.” Tonight’s programme is headed by “Appointment for Love,” a gay and moving modern comedy-drama which accumulates keen added interest through co-starring the talented Charles Boyer and Margaret Sullavan. It will surprise in that, whereas Boyer and Miss Sullavan have been largely occupied with heart-throb drama of late, they here turn their talents delightfully to comedy-drama . which is almost pure farce at times.
