He was an experienced NZ broadcaster; he attained the rank of major while on active service; he then became an Administrative Officer in the Gilbert and Ellice Colony; and was thence ap pointed to take over 2AP two years ago.

He was successful and popular, and the community was shocked by his untimely death. Mrs. Lloyd, another popular figure, left for NZ only a few weeks ago.
