N.Z. GIRLS RIDE IN HELICOPTER
Ambition Realised For Actresses
(N.Z. Army Information Service) KOREA, March 4.
A United States pilot glancing from his airborne helicopter at ,the ground below saw two girls excitedly waving their scarves, obviously beckoning him to land.
His curiosity aroused, he did—much to the delight of Misses Pat McMinn (Auckland) and Pauline Ashby (Wellington), the, two women members of the New Zealand concert party now touring Korea. Both girls were ready to plead with the pilot for a trip in the helicopter, but their charm alone was sufficient to persuade the American. It was an exhilarating experience for tne girls and also the fruition of a prolonged daydream. Ever since their arrival here they had lodged to go aloft in a helicopter, and whenever one was heard overhead they would rush outside and wave vigorously to attract the attention of the pilot.
