HART protests
Sir,—P. A. Rooney says that it takes real courage to face long batons and rugby fanatics. If HART protested peacefully there would not be any reason for police to carry long batons. I suggest that a person who would scatter tacks and broken glass on a playing field would be more deserving of the title fanatic than the innocent spectator sitting in the stand who paid good money to watch a game. He also says, because the South Africans in the English cricket team have been in residence for three years they qualified; but were not the Stanley Street tennis courts ruined in protest of the presence of a South African who
had been in residence in America for much longer than three years?—Yours, etc., T. W. BROMLEY. January 28, 1984.
