"Retriever" (With Fijians)

Goes To Gibraltar

The Cable and Wireless Ltd. repair ship Retriever has been assigned to a new post—the Rock of Gibraltar.

Announcing the change in November, the Retriever’s master, Captain G. Garrett, said the seven year-old Birkenhead-built vessel would leave Fiji in about five months for a major refit in Britain before taking up her new station.

She will be replaced in Suva, where she has served six years’ permanent guardianship on the Com monwealth Pacific cable, by her newer and slightly bigger sister ship, the Cable Enterprise.
