Vandals at Oval
By Morrie Buckner
Vandals tried to burn down the grandstands
at Middle Park soccer stadium on Friday night. Several rows of seats were
charred. The vandals also chopped down both sets of goal posts. These had to be
replaced before yesterday’s Hakoah-Lions match. Anti-soccer slogans were daubed
on walls and terraces in letters 18 inches high. These included ‘Down with
soccer’. ‘Go home wogs’. South Melbourne police have questioned two youths.
