CHRISTCHURCH,' this day.
The issue of an unauthorised pro-, gramme, and sale to spectators. at the second Rugby Test match at Christchurch on July 5, was the subject of a prosecution by J. O. McGillivray,. secretary of the Canterbury Rugby Union, against Archibald Kennedy and Joseph James Meldrum. It was alleged that defendants printed a document purporting to be the programme; of the football match, 1 without an express pei> mit. The programme was incomplete, in that it. did not contain the field numbers of the players. The defence was that the document was not a programme, but. merely a , souvenir. The magistrate reserved his decision.
