ONLY SYMPATHY
(New Zealand Press Association)
WHANGAREI, Nov. 22. A nine-year-old boy, Grant Burgess, who gave his address as care of the Railway Post Office, Maungaturoto, yesterday became the Otamatea County Council’s young-est-ever complainant about road conditions. He wrote: “Please could you tar-
seal the Whakapirau road >4|u>m the Main road to Marohemo because I fell off my bicycle in loose metal by the railway crossing and skinned half of my face.” The council will express its sympathy to Grant in his accident, and inform him the road is on the five-year sealing programme.
