STILL AT LARGE.
THREE BORSTAL ESCAPEES. INVERCARGILL, July 6. The three youths who escaped from the Borstal farm on Friday afternoon are proving unexpectedly elusive. Despite systematic and intensive searching by parties consisting of warders and police all day to-day they have not yet been found. A search party has been concentrating its activities in the West Plains district on assumption that Thomas’s store has been visited by the three youths but now the search has been extended to more distant parts, as no one seems to have any definite idea of their correct whereabouts. The escapees, if they are still out in the open, must have spent a most uncomfortable day, as the weather to-day was very cold, wet and stormy.—(P.A.)
