Remembering a sportsman and a town council update
The text recalls a man of 20 and his wartime service and athletic promise in Victoria with a notable win in the Shepparton Gift Handicap. It also reports on MLA E U Best receiving notice of court house plans for Trundle, a request to establish a waiting place near Tottenhack, and police court warnings by Police Magistrate Arnold. It notes a Sydney visit by the mayor to discuss gas works with Inspector Ayres and council decisions on forthcoming inspections and expenses.
