“THE CHEER-OHS.”
———◦———
“The Cheer-Ohs” are known to people in many suburbs, as well as in the city itself, through their tireless work on behalf of charity. On Friday night they gave a bright entertainment at St James’s Hall as a compliment to Miss Edith Dickerson. There was a large audience. The programme included all sorts of novelties in the way of character sketches, songs, dances, and choruses. Those who took part included Misses Dorrie Ward, Una Wilson, Mollie Raynor, Kitty Elliott, Grace Harris, Tony Paul, Mabelle St John, Nora Mack, Bobby Garrard, and Edith Angel, and Mrs Bennett White, in addition to Miss Dickerson herself.

DISTRICT COURT.
(Before Judge Curlewis.)
DAMAGES FOR ASSAULT.
Callinan v Austin.
In this case Aubrey Thomas Callinan, of Queen-street, Ashfield, claimed £200 damages for assault from Thomas Austin, of Ashford-street, Ashfield. The plaintiff’s story was that shortly before 7 o’clock on the evening of March 16, 1929, he had just left his home, when he heard a cry of “Stop thief,” and saw two youths running on the footpath, with defendant close behind. As the youths approached him plaintiff said defendant called out “They have taken my watch.” With two other men he joined in the chase, and caught up with one of the fugitives as he turned a corner, and attempted to detain him, but he eluded capture, and both disappeared. “When defendant came up,” plaintiff added, “he struck me on the ear, and I was knocked down, and was then either kicked or punched, a bone in my nose being broken.”
Defendant, who appeared in person, admitted that in the darkness he had mistaken plaintiff for one of those who had robbed him. He said he was quite willing to pay damages when he obtained work, but at present he did not have a penny, and had had to walk in from Ashfield that morning, as he did not have enough to pay the fare.
By consent a verdict was entered in favour of plaintiff for £40. Mr Hill (instructed by Messrs HO Marshall and Lupton) appeared for plaintiff.

CLAIM FOR BASIC WAGE OF
£16/5/9 IN N TERRITORY
DARWIN, Mon.—The hearing of a claim for a basic wage of £16/5/9 for Northern Territory workers began here today before the Full Arbitration Court. The present basic wage is £10/0/9.
The Full Court consists of Judges Foster, Kirby and Dunphy. Mr HJ Souter, appearing for a majority of unions involved in the claim, told the Court that it would be necessary to alter the basic wage if the living standard enjoyed by workers in the south were to be maintained in the Northern Territory. He said that he proposed to call evidence showing the current prices of foodstuffs in Darwin and how they compared with prices in other cities.
The Court will sit at Alice Springs next week and is expected to make personal inspections of living conditions. It may visit some cattle stations.
Aubrey Thomas Callinan, a shift engineer, giving evidence, was asked by Judge Foster if there was such a title as “Territorian.” He replied: “Yes.”
Judge Foster: How many years’ residence is necessary?—Forty years.
How long have you been here—Only six years.

WANTS BEER,
NOT WATER
Darwin.—A witness in the basic wage case in the Arbitration Court here agreed that beer should be provided for in the basic wage for NT workers.
He was Aubrey Thomas Callinan, a shift engineer.
Mr Justice Foster said to Callinan: It has been suggested that beer is really an essential in the Territory and that it should be provided for in the basic wage as a necessary liquid. Do you agree?
Callinan: Yes, Water is not a suitable alternative.
Mr Justice Foster: I should have thought by the number of empty bottles lying round that beer was another essential.
