\JIC. PENNEFATHER, here depicted by McCarthy, is a good advertise ment for the climate of New Guinea —providing a man keeps himself men tally and physically tit.
Owner of Tokua Plantation, Kokopo, he went to NG during the 1914-18 War.
He served with ANGAU during World War ll—that was his third experience of active service, for he served in the South African War as well.
Three wars and 30 years in New Guinea might be considered a fair effort for any man but Vic. Pennefather can still more than hold his own as a horseman, cricketer, tennis and snooker player. Well and widely known as a planter, generous dispenser of hospitality and sportsman, Vic., like other courageous souls has re turned to New Guinea to produce much needed copra.
