Warroo Cool Change Was Short Lived
The quick drop from last weekend's warm spell gave way to very hot days with the thermometer over 100 on Monday and Tuesday. Storms brought thunder and lightning Tuesday afternoon, but only scattered rain. Local residents and visitors, including Hilton Fert and family, J White of Wollongong, and Gregory Stone of Sydney, are noted. A party at the Tomkins home featured cards, singing, and prizes with Joe Shipworth, Joan Shipworth, and others mentioned. Cricket matches in the inter-town contest paused Sunday but will resume next week with Warren facing Kintoo in Wheton.

Compliments on Defence, But Got Six Months For Stealing
A 27 year old labourer, Leslie Edward Campbell, was jailed for six months with hard labour by Mr C W English at Forbes Court on Tuesday for stealing a utility truck, camping gear and a sewing machine from Peter Budworth. Campbell, who claimed limited schooling, had pleaded not guilty and told a complex tale about planned thefts and alleged arrangements with Budworth. The case noted Budworth’s prior prison contact and Campbell’s assertion he believed he had permission to recover the truck, though no written authority existed. The magistrate praised Campbell’s defence but found him guilty and ordered the sentence to be carried out.
