RUGBY BROADCASTS
AUCKLAND UNION’S EXPERIENCE. The atnua! report of the Auckland Rugby Football Union for the year 1927 discloses that the season’s operations ended in a profit of £2757 8s, 11d. The report states; "It is very gratifying to be able to state that the past season was one of the most successful in the annals of this union, and but for the wretched weather conditions which obtained duriny almost all the latter part of the season, would in every way have easily eclipsed all records."? The above would seem to be an answer to those who contend that broadcasting keeps people away from the event being broadcast. Last season was the first in which regular broadcasting on telay had been carried out on every occasion, including representative fixtures. The chairman of the union, Mr. Harry Frost, concludes his report with the remark that the outlook has never been so bright in the history of the union.
