Still Indefinite

SUVA, July 18.

NO decision has yet been made regard ing future Fijian Rugby tours, ac cording to a statement by the president of the Fiji Rugby Union (Mr.

H. M. Scott).

He added that it was hoped that an Australian tour could be arranged for next year and that the union was in communication with the New Zealand Rugby Union with reference to future tours in the Dominion.

From Priday, July, 15 Rabaul will have an additional outward air mail via Kavieng, Manus, Wewak, Madang, and Lae to Australia. This will take slightly longer than the usual outward mail, but as it closes at 7 p.m., it will permit resi dents to answer urgent correspondence received the same day in the regular Qantas service.
