Broadcasting and Gate Takings
Members .of the Victory- Park Board considered that broadcasting a match detracted from the gate, said the chairman of the management committee of the Canterbury Cricket Association (Mr R. C. Saunders) at a meeting of the committee last evening. Mr Saunders was commenting on a letter from the board in which the secretary (Mr K. N. McGillivray) said that the board could not agree that the fee received for broadcasting matches should be the sole property of the cricket association. Mr Saunders said that broadcasting might affect detrimentally the attendance at a football match, but he considered that it would probably have the opposite effect on the gate for cricket matches.
