Price of Test Tickets
Sir,—As there are still some people who imagine Hint I was speculating when I employed 82 men to purchase 164 Test grandstand tickets, I beg to inform the public that Hie final price to my clients of Hie £1 tickets was £l/14/-, and 1.1/tiekets £l/5/-. Of the fourteen shillings extra. 10/- was cost (per ticket) of man's time (each man received £1 and bought two tickets), leaving a balance of 4/per ticket. As my general expenses, including clerical assistance and refreshments, came to approximately 1/6 per ticket, the public will now see what a good thing I made out of it.—l am. etc., EMPLOYER OF 82 MEN. Wellington, August 4.
