Any entertainment constitutes a breach." With this comment, Mr G. A. Nicholls, S.M., in the Magistrate’s Court at Blenheim convicted the licensee of the Renwick Arms Hotel. Daniel Hurrell McKenzie, of using the lounge bar of his hotel for providing entertainment. The Magistrate ordered payment of costs only.
