FOR BENEFIT FUND With the object of making it possible for Miss Althea Parker to have one year's dramatic training in England, the Althea Parker Benefit Fund has been opened by the Diocesan Old Girls' Association. Miss Parker has been generous in giving the benefit of her outstanding talent to the many dramatic societies of Auckland, and it is hoped that they will support the effort that is being made on her behalf.
