ODD SHOTS

The new lights at McLean Park could open up a totally new era of sport for Hawke’s Bay. With four columns, each holding a battery of 42 lights, installed at a cost of 18,000 Pounds. McLean Park could well prove to be a really bright spot in Napier. When not in use, could some of them be utilised to augment the poor lighting in accident prone Latham Street? We show here one of the standards waiting to be hauled into place.

The last vestige of the old block of the Mangateretere School was lifted off the site by crane recently and to mark the occasion, the children were lined up to watch the event.

INDOOR SOCCER

A sport which is gaining rapidly in popularity is indoor soccer. With 16 junior and 16 senior teams playing twice on club nights at the Centennial Stadium, Napier, the sport is attracting more and more participants and spectators. With only 5 players comprising a team, the pace of course, is fast from first to last whistle. Here we show a general view of the Stadium with a 2nd Division game in progress.

A section of the crowd gives vocal encouragement to their respective teams.
