Bradford magistrates last year imposed a total of £393,787 in fines and made maintenance orders worth £592,630, double the amount of money that passed through court accounts ten years ago. Most of the money was paid in weekly instalments, each one having to be accurately recorded. Some people paid only now and again, while others did not pay at all. Now the city justices have begun using a computer to help their staff to keep the accounts straight.

There is no hope of Bradford staging the return world middleweight championship fight between Randolph Turpin and "Sugar Ray" Robinson in September. Mr Sam Burns, manager to Mr. Jack Solomons, told the Telegraph&Argus today: "Although Odsal Stadium could hold about 90,000 or 100,000 for a big fight, I do not think people there would be prepared to pay the money we could get in London. There is, therefore, absolutely no chance of it going

to Bradford."
