Service station title dispute settled in High Court
A High Court decision in Sydney resolves a long running dispute over the Fyshwick service station in Canberra Avenue. Shell Company of Sydney and Associated Securities Ltd were ordered to pay court costs to Roger Blundell and Mrs Joan Blundell, who held the service station lease and mortgage interests. The case traced back to 1969 when ASL sought possession for $155,000 and potential sale contracts involving Shell nominee Walter Forsyth and XL Petroleum interests emerged amid ongoing negotiations.

Australian citizen held in Belgrade
An Australian citizen, Frank Gombar of Queanbeyan, naturalised about ten years ago, was in Belgrade where his Australian passport was seized and he was subjected to medical tests. The Australian Embassy in Belgrade was kept informed as Gombar underwent one test and was sent to a Belgrade clinic for further examination. Friends say he went to Yugoslavia six weeks ago for a three month visit after a serious arm injury and are confident he will fail the tests.
