WAIKATO SHOW TO BE HELD
(By Telegraph—Press Association.)
HAMILTON, This Day.
Owing to the health restrictions, children under 16 years of age will not be admitted to the Waikato Winter Show, which opens on Tuesday. At a meeting of the show committee, when the likelihood of closing the show was discussed, advice was received from the Medical Officer of Health,, who stated: "It would not be fair to close the show unless all other gatherings of adults were similarly discouraged. It is not proposed to take this wide action and include adults in the restrictions unless the incidence of paralysis rises very sharply in the immediate future. If action is contemplated against adults, every gathering (small and large) of grown-up people should be barred."
