Club Formed at Rarotonga

From Our Own Correspondent.

F Rarotonga, Oct. 15.

OUR enthusiasts have formed the nucleus of a Big Game Fishing Club Messrs. H. Scott, F. Story, L. Morel and T. Pickering.

In the late afternoons and week-ends their small sailing-boats can be seen far out at sea. They report exciting en counters with sharks, albicore, swordfish and barracouta.

They anticipate in the near future the purchase of a club boat, which will be equipped with sleeping quarters, engine and sails. Then the local Zane Greys will be ready for any size of scaly mon ster of the deep.
