Transistors Seized
(N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) SYDNEY, Sept. 1. Customs searchers in the freighter Straat Lombok at Walsh Bay today seized 772 transistor radios valued at £l7.ooo—the second biggest seizure of transistors in Australia. The raid was after the seizure last Saturday of £20,000 worth of heroin and opium hidden in the same ship—the largest drug haul ever made at an Australian port.
