OAMARU ROTARY CLUB
Attendances at the local club during April were good, and the club’s average, 94.29 per cent., was the highest in New Zealand. On April 27 Rotarian D. V. G. Smith gave an interesting outline of the work af the Waitaki High Schools Board. Rotarians were surprised to learn that the staff, including teaching and domestic, amounted to well over 100, whilst the pupils numbered upwards of 1200. On Monday night an Interesting address on service overseas was given by Mr G. S. Sharp. His subject was "Air Opera, tions In Burma.” Mr Sharp's approach was from a new angle, and Rotarians famed an entirely new insight into operaions in that theatre of war. The speaker stressed the immense value of the achievements of the Wingate expedition. Further contributions were made to the fund for sending food to Britain.
