Graduates of Pacific Administration School

ALTHOUGH the Australian School of Pacific Administration has been considerably disturbed dur ing the year by the change from the longer to the shorter term of instruction, the School this year is expected to produce 25 graduates for the Administration in Papua and New Guinea.

These gentlemen will receive their Diplomas at the hands of the Min ister for Territories Mr. Hasluck, at the School, on December 6. t A national appeal is being organ ised throughout New Zealand for a fund to commemorate the late Sir Peter Buck (Te Rangihiroa). dis tinguished Polynesian anthropologist, who died at Honolulu in 1951 and whose ashes were later interred at Waitara, NZ. It is suggested that the fund might be used to establish a bursary in anthropology at a New r Zealand University college, as well as to make an annual contribution of books to the Anglican Maori Te Aute College, Hawke’s Bay, of which Sir Peter was an old boy.
