Looking Forward To Royal Toor
(Special.) AUCKLAND, This Day. “I hope, although I know nothing mere than you do, that we shall have the pleasure of welcoming the Royal Family here in New Zealand in the near future,” said the Governor General (Sir Bernard Freyberg, V.C.) in an address to the pupils of Dilworth School yesterday morning. "I hope that you will have this opportunity while you are at school. However, I do not knew if that is going to eventuate.”
Sir Bernard, who was accompanied by Lady Freyberg, was welcomed by Bishop Simkin, chairman of the Dilworth Trust Board, and the headmaster, Mr B. H. Wakelin, formerly of Whangarei, whose service with the 19th Armoured Regiment he referred to warmly.
