National Party Ball

The first National Party Ball to be held for some time was thoroughly enjoyed by the 500 guests who attended it at the Army Hall on a recent Friday evening.

The guest of honour, Mrs Esme Tombleson M.P., who was accompanied by her husband, Mr T. W. J. Tombleson, wore a magnificent sheath gown of. kingfisher blue delustred satin trimmed with gold beading.

On these two pages, we reproduce pictures taken by Kandid Kamera Kraft of some of the guests who were present.
