"CHALLENGE OF THE CITIES"
»ir,-On February 7/7 I listened to the above broadcast. After each city had had its turn, we heard "This is the voice of Judgment." What he should have said was "This is the voice of mis-judgment." Fancy putting a large crowd at a football match in Auckland first with four points, over the 50-year record of the Wellington Boys’ Institute, and worse still Canterbyry’s Lord Rutherford, the man who split the atom, etc. In my opinion Canterbury was easily first, Wellington easily second, and Auckland and Dunedin about equal next. A few more of these mis-judg-ments will kill the interest in the Challenge of the Cities. :
