The police said there were 25 charges extending over the months of April and May, and on April 27th a man named Frost was killed by a car which had been taken by some person unknown. The accused were all expert drivers, and all speed-fiends. The Magistrate said that the accused had been engaged in a perfect orgy of offences relating to motor-cars.

Hunt, S.M.. at Auckland, when sentencing Harold Stanley Lodder, aged 36, on a charge of dealing in cocaine. The accused was sentenced to six months’ imprisonment. “That is half the penalty you should get,” said the Magistrate. Another man, John Aitken Fairley, aged 47, was given the benefit of the doubt. Lodder admitted possession of cocaine, but said he had only tried unsuccessfully to dispose of it for another man. —Press Assn. Sale specials at F. Thorp and Co.
