One could not overlook the Lollo brothers in any football discussion. All tricky players, Percy, Harold, Alf and Les. Percy had a dummy that would leave the best of them standing. Harold Lalla still referees the Club games in Charters Towers. An amusing incident happened last year when the Junior Es­tates from Townsville were playing a. Junior Representative team from Char­ters Towers. Harold Lollo had the whistle, and there had been light rain falling on and off during the match. The two Junior teams, as a joke, arranged

to get Harold (the Ref.) at the finish of the match. Harold was, of course, in spotless white shorts and sweater and somehow he smelt a rat and as soon as he blew the full time whistle made a bee line at top speed for the sideline. One of the wingers, unfortunately for Harold, was too speedy and brought him down with a flying tackle. Needless to say his white ref. outfit was a sorry mess when they had rolled him several times in the mud.
