MANGAPAI HOCKEY DANCE

Despite many counter attractions, the hockey dance held at Mangapai on Thursday, truly 2, was voted a success by all who attended. A bus load of dancers from Matakohe and places en route swelled the crowd, and the dance went with a swing. Mr E. Hill capably performed M.C. duties, and Frank Carter’s band supplied the music. A duet by Messrs Newberry (piano-accordeon) and H. Higgott (banjo) was enthusiastically encored. The Monte Carlo was won by Miss N. Williams and Mr C. Monk.
