TRUST RESTAURANT IS TO STOP SERVING LIQUOR
P.A. INVERCARGILL, May 2. The Invercargill Licensing Trust has decided to cease serving liquor at the Brown Owl Restaurant. A representative of the Trust stated today that it had been found uneconomic to serve liquor in the restaurant under the new award rates for barmen. He added that the experiment to try and provide better drinking conditions had been well worth while, but most of the drinkers in the city preferred to patronise the hotels operated by the Trust. If the building restrictions became less severe, and if building costs receded, it was intended to enlarge the Brown Owl for use as a dining room as well as a tea room.
