Visit to N. Cal.
General Charles de GAULLE’S only contact with Australia in his forthcoming visit to French territories will be a brief stop at Darwin when his plane calls there on its way from New Caledonia to French Islands in the Indian Ocean.
The General will arrive in Noumea, on September 9, on the Caledonien and stay four days. t At Areligo plantation, 17 miles from Honiara, BSIP, on July 23, an 8-years-old native girl was taken by a crocodile. The child was asleep on the beach between her parents, and the father awoke to see her being dragged away by the crocodile.
Next day the reptile was killed; part of the girl’s body was found inside.
