Gilbert Tver, of the Palmerston X. High School, and an ex-pupil of the local school, gained the second aggregate prize in Korin V.lh. Gilbert has also secured an engineering cadetship in the P. and T. Department, at headquarters. We hope this young man will follow in the footsteps of his famous great uncle, Edward Tver, the inventor of the universally used railway tablet system of signalling, and also the originator of the inter-communica-tion telegraph system in England.
