Old Collegians' Ball

Former pupils of Nelson College and Girls' College, some from North Island towns, turned out in force for the annual ball in the college assembly hall. The gay atmosphere was enlivened by floral decorations and colour was added to the scene by bunches of balloons.

Prelude to enjoyment, featuring Frank and Joyce Allan and Edna and John Riggs.

Waiting for their escorts: Tina Mordaunt, Biddie Dobson, and Helen Swain.

One big happy group: Robert Angelo (from Hastings for the event), Eleanor Angelo, Bill Scholefield, Angela Taylor, and Ella and Harry Coltman.
