Out at Manutuke we have four generations, which includes, of course a very proud great-grandmother. She is Mrs J. Lawrence, 86, who is holding her great-granddaughter, Deborah Haskins. At right is Deborah's father, Malcolm Haskins, while on the left is his mother, Mrs Evelyn Haskins.
For the third year in succession Stuart Livingstone, 11, of 356 Clifford Street, has won the J. Wattie Canneries' Challenge Cup for the under-14 brass instrumental solo in the Gisborne Competitions. Stuart, a very promising young musician who plays tenor horn in the Gisborne Federal Brass Band, is a pupil of Mr Bill Leighton. Stuart is a grandson of the late Mr Charlie Hansen, a former well-known bands-man and cornet player.
