Potatoes sure grow big in the hills out back of Gisborne. In this case, on Mr F. S. Smith's "Rimu Hills," near Matawai. This spud was dug up in the farm crop and weighed 31b 2ozs. It's an Auckland Short Top and, admittedly, was grown in virgin soil.

From Te Karaka we have this shot of bonny young Pitama Ruru, son of Mr and Mrs Ngata Ruru. Pitama was first equal in the under-9-months' section of a recent Plunket Baby Show, held out at Te Karaka. (K.K.K.)

The P.B. Junior Football Association staged a five-mile walkathon on the morning of Sunday, April 30. The walkers left the Childers Road Reserve on a hike which took in Gladstone Road, part of Kaiti, Ormond Road, Lytton Road and back to the Reserve. The walkers are seen here leaving the Reserve. Funds raised from the walk will be divided equally, by the entrant concerned, between his school and the Association. The Association's half will be used, in the main, for new sets of much needed goal posts.
