A Pages from the Editors Notebook We were reprimanded last week by Mr Charles Boyd for having published the figure as being the number of people who watched the Slim swim at Fairy Lake Mr Boyd has good reason to call us because We had criti cized the figure quoted on the Trade Fair attendance this sum mer In an editorial we said that the figure was an exagger ation With tongue in cheek we told Mr Boyd who was on the Trade Fair committee that our sports editor Mr George Has- counted every person single handed Mr Boyd saw the swim and of course we knew that Mr was in the press boat all the time ana that he could not have counted all the people without a tele scope and even with a tele scope increasing darkness would have made it impossible We made all sorts of excuses pointing out that we had no door at the swim as hey had had at the Trade Fair Since we had no door we could not count the people passing through it We deserve a thor ough dressing down But there were many at Bliggens swim which pointed up the fact that Newmarket needs a swimming pool Mr Boyd did say that it was a good publicity stunt and we put down our respective tele phones still friends Prom the Files of and 50
