From Our Own Correspondent
Rarotonga, Aug. 12.
NOMINATIONS for the European rep resentative on the Island Council closed on July 31 with Mr. D&vid Brown (manager for Messrs. W. H. Grove and Son’s local branch) returned unopposed.
Mr. H. Shearman, the former represen tative, did not stand again, and there were no other nominations.
The new member, whose “walk-in” may be regarded as due to the general esteem in which he is held, is expected to take an active part in Council affairs and to co-operate closely with the Administra tion in the onerous task of making “fruit control” the success which is officially anticipated.
Professor W. B. Unger, a zoologist attached to the Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, U.S.A., paid a short visit to
Fiji during August.
