A BAD SPILL·
THE CHINA MAIL,
(Continued from Page 9.) Turf correspondents, however, are penalised. Whereas it cost them $1.50 plas 40 cents to "cover" a meeting in the past, they now have to pay $2 (for which they get an admission ticket which they do not! use) and 20 cents for bus, or $2.20 all told as against $1.90 before. But the extra 80 cents is worth it, if only for the better Press box with
also being seats, the latter concession!
