N. Caledonia to Honour Flier Roffey
From Our Own Correspondent.
NOUMEA, January 15.
A COMMITTEE has been formed to raise funds to celebrate the recent flight from New Caledonia to Australia by Mr. Victor Roffey.
The committee is under the patron age of the Governor, Monsieur Guyon, and of Mr. Johnson, the British Con sul. A subscription list is to be opened, and the suggestion is that a permanent record be erected at Anse Vata or some other suitable place.
Capt. Moody left Papua for Aus tralia last month, in his seaplane, via Kerema, Daru and Thursday Island.
He had been in Papua and New Guinea since October this year.
Mr. L. L. Bell, F.I.O., late of Papua, has been elected to the Council of the Institute of Optometrists of New South Wales for the forthcoming year.
