ROARING DOWN ITS OLD COURSE and swirling round the foundations of the power-house, the Waikato River gives the appearance of being in mild flood since the diversion gates have been opened at Arapuni. Jutting out on the left is the entrance to one of the additional penstock tunnels that were put in hand last year to relieve the flow of water over the spillway weir. Inset is Mr. F. W. Furkert, Engineer-in-Chief of the Public Works Department.
