Savage Club Hi Jinks

Matamata Orphans who made a raid on the Gisborne Savage Club last month were dealt with in suitable style by the local warriors when they disembarked from their bus at the showgrounds.

Upon arriving, the raiders were immediately seized and subjected to all manner of ."tortures"; from an. oral vaccination of a vile red-coloured mixture (whisky and milk) to a shave and shampool by the "beauty parlour" crew.

After the visitors had been dealt with, the "beauticians" gave fellow Savage Aubrey Harper the treatment. From left: Keith Stichbury, Sam Phillips, Keith Mullooly, and Bill Jolly.
