QUEEN CARNIVAL SOME FINAL FIGURES RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURE Interesting figures arc given in the balance sheets for the cricket and hockey section of the queen carnival and the winding-up dance. The football section has paid its cash in hand in to the central executive, and the only amounts now outstanding arc those held by the tennis and basketball committee. Some delay is inevitable in this section, as the books for competitions have been sent as far afield as Auck land. Some members of the public criticised the presentations made to the queens, but the cost of these gifts was not born by the fund already in hand, coming instead from the receipts at the dance.. For this reason there was a profit of only few shillings.
