WEST COAST BEAUTY
MOUNTAINS & CHURCHES PAPAL LEGATE'S TOUR (Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. The Apostolic Delegate, Archbishop Panico, has returned from the south greatly impressed by the scenic beauty of the mountain and glacier regions of the West Coast and also with the churches and institutions in the different places he visited. His West Coast visit took him down to the Franz Josef and Fox Glaciers. He also saw some of the historic spots associated with the gold rushes, and paid a visit to the Gillespie's Beach dredge, where the most modern methods of gold recovery are in use. Westport was to have been included in the tour but heavy rain, a typical West Coast deluge, according to residents, necessitated his return to Christchurch.
