Protest Over Guides Hall On Playground Reaches Braybrook Council
A belated protest against erecting the Girl Guides Hall on part of the Staten Place playground was presented to Braybrook Shire Council. Petitioners led by J. O. Edward argued the area should be reserved for its civic purpose but the council stated it was already committed since 1936 to permissive occupancy for a hall. A deputation from the Girl Guides outlined plans to begin building within six months at an estimated cost of about £500, with £300 in hand.

Braybrookshire council debates cancer research appeal
Dr BE Treloar told Braybrookshire council on Monday that the government should fund cancer research rather than burden ratepayers. He warned Braybrook's £496 allocation and the proposed £100,000 appeal likely would not be raised as planned, so the council postponed the decision.

Debated Garbage Service Rates Across Ridings
Members discuss whether the same garbage service rate should apply to South Central and River ridings. Hargreaves suggests refer to estimates and possibly revert to a separate charge. Pennell favors that approach, noting ratepayers gain full benefit from their payments and funds spent on other services affect road works.
