Description: A headmaster, grand in school tie and scholarly gown, stands on the stage beside a table laden with prize books and cups. Behind the table sit the staff looking deadpan and in front of the stage are the students who accept his statement about Mr Marshall's plan for mediocrity with a mixture of cheerfulness and disbelief. Unrestrained extraction of hot water by bores caused a startling decline in the field's thermal activity between the 1970s and late 1980s, affecting the performance of famous geysers such as Pohutu.But the situation improved after restrictions on use were introduced in 1986 and a ban imposed on drilling new bores within a 1.5km radius of the tourist drawcard Whakarewarewa.

Description: A man sits comfortably in his armchair reading a newspaper. Through the window there is a view of an attractive garden. His wife comes in and reads over his shoulder the large headlines 'Shutdown of inefficient bores'; she assumes this means that parliamentary broadcasts are going to stop and is delighted, but she hasn't seen the smaller print below saying 'Rotorua steam crisis". The cartoon makes a comment on the opinion of some people about the broadcasting of parliament. It also refers to the problem of too many bores being drilled in Rotorua and thus geothermal activity being dangerously reduced. Other Titles - "Oh, good! are they going to stop broadcasting parliament?"
