21
Hospital Week
As is customary the central figures in this year's hospital week were those Cook Hospital nurses who recently qualified for their state final examinations.
From left to right, pictured above, they are: back row; M. Bruce, M. Murray, M. Newcombe, M. Morris, J. Heikell, S. McDonnell and K. Luani; front row; P. Wiki, P. Ruru, D. Cribb, Miss R. Bunt, supervising matron, Mr W. G. Shiach, medical superintendent, W. Heteraka, B. Lloyd and K. Rewl.
The occasion was a notable one in that more Maori nurses graduated than anywhere else in N.Z.
