South Africa is finding itself hard put these days to keep its sporting citizens and their money at home. Apartheid laws forbid both miscegenation and public socializing between the races within the republic. Every kind of gambling except horse racing is banned.

Many of his suits are based on various state and federal laws that forbid dredging and filling operations in tidal lands without a permit from the Army Corps of Engineers. Though tides wash over almost all of the mangrove swamps, developers often neglect to get such a permit; then Matthews sues, sometimes with strange results. In 1970, for instance, the Lutgert Construction Co. started a giant beachfront development involving the dredging and filling of 1.65 million cu. yds. of tidal lands in Naples.
