WALLIE AT WAIKANAE.
Sir,-Save me from my friends! In column two of your story about me on page 14 of the issue of December 20 you state... " he remembers one summer during which, on every Sunday except one, a
fatal accident occurred at Waikanae" .. . This is likely to bring a storm of protest from the citizens of Gisborne . . . I think there have only been about three drownings in about 30 years on that beach! What was meant was that in one summer I was on the beach every Sunday with the life-saving team--every Sunday except one, and on that particular Sunday there was a drowning! Could you squeeze
in a correction before the storm breaks?-
