BATHERS, BEWARE!
SHARKS NEAR CLIVE. On Saturday afternoon a party from Havelock North enjoyed a very pleasant bath© from the sgpdy beach near the estuary of the Ngaruroro at Clive, and shortly afterwards they were startled to see a five-foot shark coasting along the inshort breakers within 12 yards of th© beach. Half an hour later another shark, of equal size, followed the track of th© one first seen, and the party decided to cut the remaining bathing events outof their programme. An amateur fisherman nearby, who had just caught a couple of fair-sized kingfish, said that he had often fished there and these were the first sharks lie had seen A couple of ladies, resident close to the beach, said they’ had bathed daily during the summer and had never thought of, much less seen, a shark
