TRIBUTE PAID TO K FORCE A tribute to the artillery units at present serving in Korea was paid by Brigadier J. T. Burrows at the annual reunion of the Canterbury Gunners’ Association in Christchurch on Saturday evening.

Wickens were the guests of honour at the reunion.

Patron, Brigadier C. E. Weir; president Mr F. S: E. Neate; vice-president, Mr R. K. Baker; secretary Mr C. H. Francis; treasurer, Mr F. H. A. Lamb; committee, Messrs Hoffman, W. M. S. Mackie, A. B.
