Youth Club For Rabaul

p. 167 · Read in the full issue

A RABAUL reader writes to say that the young people of Rabaul have decided to do something about their boredom and have formed a club of their own, the “Garamut Club”. They held their opening dance April 28; it proved a tremendous success and they are now planning numerous barbe cues and expeditions for the future.

Many citizens of Rabaul have made generous donations to their cause so that they have now £lOO towards a Building Fund. (Their temporary quarters are, however, at the New

Britain Women’s Club.) These enterprising young people have startled Rabaul by organising a baby-sitting agency, and three of their members acted as Hostesses to the flying tourists brought in re cently by Ansett Airways.
