Mate the LADIES
ITHOUT personalities, radio \ X/ would not be much more than a@ community gramophone: without " Suzette," Palmerston North’s 2ZA would be proportionately less popular. Suzette is the microphone name of Mavis Mortland, who, radio or no radio, would still be a personality. Mavis Mortland was born in North Canterbury, but has lived most of her life in Palmerston North. For the Manawatu Repertory Society she has taken leading parts and has been honorary secretary for two years; other times wardrobe mistress and_ stage decorator. Another of Miss Mortland’s interests is the Palmerston North Operatic and Dramatic Society. In Wellington, where she lived for a year, Miss Mortland was secretary of the Thespians, made records of announcements for commercial purposes, and took parts in dramas and comedies at 2YA and 2YC. Among activities of which she is very fond, Miss Mortland lists golf, her radio work, and acting.
