This Enzedder Is Tops

Tops in every way is Miss New Zealand for 1971-72, Linda Ritchie. On her four-day visit to Gisborne, Linda won a host of friends with her charm and personality. This gorgeous blonde showed a keen interest in everything about her and while here made visits to the freezing works, saleyards, and playcentres, as well as taking part in her contract to show wool fashions and promote wool.

Linda showed great interest in one of the largest weaner fairs ever held at the Matawhero sale yards.

Wearing her Miss New Zealand crown and gown, Linda Ritchie parades for the crowd at Adairs. At back is compere Hal Andrew.

Young Shuntel Keen seems a little overawed by Linda's beautiful crown.
