TROTTING ASSOCIATION'S RULING
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
.CHRISTCHURCH, This Day,
The rule providing for a 35-mihute: interval between races must be observed, according- to a decision of the New Zealand Trotting .Association inreply to representations from the New. Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club. The association states that, it has no power to give permission to clubs to depart from this rule.
"There seems to be an impression that there is no penalty prescribed for a breach of the rules by a club, but this is erroneous. If a club breaks the rule, the association has the power under Rule 60 to cancel or suspend the certificate of registration of a club, and under Rule 379, may, in the case of a wilful breach, inflict a fine of any amount." / • ■
In the case -of the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club. the explanation was accepted."
