(Per United Press Association.) WELLINGTON, February 20. The Wellington City Council last night refused permission to the local picture houses to exhibit pictures on Good Friday. The Mayor said the council had declined to allow the theatres to open on Good Friday for the past two years, and this position was reaffirmed by nine votes to six. Wellington football players who receive injuries in Association and Rugby matches this winter will have to foot their own bill. This decision has been arrived at by the controlling bodies as the result of the Hospital Board deciding to charge full rates instead of half rates, as formerly, for treatment in the local institution of injured players.
