Rarotonga, Aug. 10.
SEVEN men were selected to make up the first draft of European volun teers to leave the Cook Islands for overseas service with the NZ Forces.
They are Messrs. K. S. Graham (planter), C. H. Hollands (store accountant), N.
Cooper (store manager), L. K. Pitt (Fruit Control accountant), F. R. Swanston (engineer), and G. Woodroofe (school teacher).
On August 5, at a dance held by the Patriotic Committee of Rarotonga, each recruit was presented with a parcel of knitted wear.
A further £5OO from the Cook Islands Patriotic Fund was forwarded to New Zealand in August.
