TUESDAY TRAVEL... Touragram spins a yarn

Compiled by

“GLADIATOR"

The relationship between tourism and wool may seem a little nebulous, but “Gladiator” points out that they are both export earners for New Zealand and adds that most travellers do a little “wool gathering” at times.

And, if that is not sufficient, he concludes by suggesting that readers can while away the time on their next ’trip by doing this wool-based Touragram. So settle back on those woollen seat covers, pull up the woollen travelling rug and relax. Once again, Whitcoulls’ gift vouchers will be awarded for the first six entries opened. The vouchers can be used to purchase — or as a part payment for — any item stocked by Whitcoulls. The increasing number of schools that are setting

the touragram as a class project is also most encouraging. “The Press” awards a special $lO cash prize to the class with the neartest correct entry. Results and the names of winners will appear in “Tuesday Travel” on November 1.

The words are hidden in the touragram in a random manner and may appear horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

They can be read from left to" right or from right to left, and up or down. Some letters may be common to two or more words. Each word has a corresponding clue. When located, the words should be ringed neatly with a ball-point pen and listed to correspond with the numbers of the clues. Entries should be addressed to the Travel

Editor. “The Press” P.O. Box 1005, Christchurch. The transposition of the answers for questions 18 and 21 was the most common error in last month’s “wheels” touragram. Many entrants also got caught with questions two and three, omitting the first words in both answers — steam engine and sedan chair.

Whitcoulls’ gift vouchers will be sent to the following: Miss L. Rowley. Flat 5, 93 Southampton Street. Christchurch 2; Miss A. M. Hammond, 173 Edgeware Road, Christchurch 1; Miss Jill Crowther, 58 Norwood Street, Christchurch 2; Mrs S. J. Rush, 31 Catherin Street. Tinwald; W. R. Tulloch. 4 Edinburgh Cresc., Blenheim: Dan Moloney, 106 Russell Street, Westport. The special $lO school prize has been awarded to the children of Room 16, Avonhead School.
