Deputation Seeks Board Support for Catterick School Retention
A deputation led by Messrs Machin Wood DeZotti and Street asked the Board if it still intends to buy the Catterick school and under what terms. The Greenbushes Road Board and MLA Hoar outlined past efforts to retain the building for the district. The Department offered the building at £30 with conditions, but local opinion remained divided. The Catterick Progress Association may pursue direct talks with the Department, with Board support possible.

Pemberton Potatoes Reach Record Yardage in Ten Days
Potatoes dug and railed from Pemberton to Diamond Tree totalled 48 tons in ten days with nearly 300 tons from Baat Brook. Bottlenecks limited loading to 70 tons at a time, yet the operation, praised as a district highlight, saved at least a pound per ton and boosted exports. Notable producers include W. V. Colling with 28 tons 12 bags from 24 acres and J. Corballine with 50 bags in 11 hours from N. U. Moltoni’s 11 ton per acre crop. Some sunburn and undergrading were noted amid high yields and strong APC export handling.
