PETROL STOLEN
"VERY SERIOUS MATTER" "Nowadays with petrol so to obtain it is a very serious matter for a motorist to be inconvenienced by having his limited supply stolen," said Mr. C. R. Orr S.M., when sentencing two youths the Police Court yesterday. They were Richard

"I am stretching a point in not sending prison." said the magistrate, admitting both accused to probation for two years. A special condition was that they should not associate.
