STICKERS ON STATUES
INCIDENT AT AUCKLAND.
[ Per Pies, Association.)
AUCKLAND, April 12.
The sight of the yellow advertisements of the New Zealand University Easter tournament fixed high up on the statues of Queen Victoria and Sir George Grey in Albert Park aroused protests from many visitors to the park during the week-end. An explanation of the defacement was made by the president of the Students’ Association of Auckland University College, Mr. H. Halstead. Stickers advertising the tournament had been issued for distribution, said Mr. Halstead, but a number got into the hands of unauthorised people whose misguided enthusiasm was responsible for the regrettable incident.
