The Mail, June 11th 1975, warned the local football clubs that “a club official was placed on a $200,
12 months’ good behaviour bond at Footscray Court last Thursday after facing a charge involving an
alleged illegal raffle. And magistrate Mr. J. Wallace told him: “I know what goes on in football clubs.
I’d be blind if I didn’t; but I am bound by an act of Parliament.”
“Even the teenagers flocked to Highpoint West for opening on Tuesday morning – there were
bargains in the jeans store, and youngsters were willing to do battle for a good pair of “baggies”.
Thousands of shopper’s packed Highpoint West only minutes after the doors were opened at the

admitted to Western General Hospital.”
