Photo Exhibition in Moresby

From Our Own Correspondent

THE Photographic Society of Papua

held its first public exhibition of prints in Port Moresby during the last week in March. Ninety-two entries were received, with the first award going to Mr. T. F. Warren for a landscape of the Dogura district. The second and third awards were won by Mr. Peter Livingstone for a New Guinea landscape, and an aerial view of Mt. Lamington.

Mr. Harold Gatty’s new Cessna seaplane, which drifted away from its moorings at his island of Katafaga, in the Lau Group, Fiji, in February, was found a few days later, completely smashed, on the coast of Tuvuca, an island ten miles away. Mr.

Gatty imported the plane only recently, for maintaining communications between his home in Suva and the plantation on Katafaga.
