UGLY INCIDENT : James Kelly (B/M Hamilton) was innocently involved inan ugly scene which erupted following a controversial decision by British adjudicator & composer Dr. Cyril Jenkins ,
The judges decision was given in favour of the Townsville Railways Band who had previously won "B" grade under their conductor Albert Trembath. The Queensland band had been awarded one more point than the more fancied Hamilton band (Kelly) . When the result was announced it was greeted with disapproval from the large section of the crowd of thousands who had favoured Hamilton to win.
The demonstration lasted 20 minutes . Band officials & police on duty became concerned for the safety of Mr. jenkins who refused to leave his tent .The situation was defused to a great extent when the Hamilton conductor was seen to enter the judges tent and after a lapse of time emerged arm in arm with Mr. Jenkins escorted by 6 police officers He was driven away from the ground .
