Sunday Sport and Concerts
' [TO THE EDITOR.] i Sir,—“Not a Wowser” has come ' again. I knew he was a “foreigner.” He has lived among the Coasters for : 58 years, and has accepted their hos'pitality all these years, only to con- ' demn them now. I am tickled to death at the way he has slated the League fans and footballers, being a : staunch Rugby supporter. I do not 'see why they should be allowed out iof the bowels of the earth once a ‘week to play League. They should be forced to go to Sunday school and then to play ludb and snakes and ladders. . Mr. Churchill saved the i British Empire and' probably the ; world, but he had to jig on Sundays •to do it. And there was no 40-hotii' 'week when the Battle for Britain was ; on. I wonder if the wowsers listened ito the war news on Sunday nights, i Out with the foreigners and their regimentation!—Yours, etc., THE COAST FOR THE COASTERS. Christchurch, September 17. (As the matter has been sufficiently discussed, this correspondence is now closed. —Editor, Evening Star).
