CAPTAIN Ratu Edward Cakobau, known to many New Zealand friends as Ted, will never be forgotten by the members of the Auckland cricket team, which he accompanied on its southern tour in 1936-37, if only for the fish which he speared in the Avon and carried triumphantly through the streets of Christchurch.
It is just over 20 years since Ted Cako bau arrived in New Zealand with one Dovi Madraiwiwi to spend five years at the Wanganui Technical College, where they joined- Jope Loloma and Joeli Ravai, the first pair of Fijian boys to be sent to that college Under a scholarship scheme put into operation by the Fijian Gov ernment.
They and the others who have followed them have been responsible for many Fijian faces appearing in the photographs of cricket, Rugby and other teams which line the corridors of the college.
