These two official photographs show (at top) the Governor of Fiji, Sir Alexander Grantham, broadcasting a special message to Fijian listeners during the 500th session; standing in the doorway is Major F. C. Preston, formerly of Christchurch, who is the Governor's A.D.C.; and (below) a group of performers who took part in the same session.
