Return from Abroad

Mr Trevor | Lane by ‘‘Monterey"’ Me. TREVOR LANE, who has been in England and on the Continent for ten months, will return to New Zealand by the Monterey on July 25. After leaving Hngland, Mr. Lane developed appendicitis and underwent 4n operation at Capetown, where he was in hospital for three or four weeks. While in London, Mr, Lane interviewed many prominent people in liter ary, film and dramatic circles, and we received recently from g well-known writer the following appreciative lines :- "T was recently introduced to a young visitor from New Zealand... and they began to tell me about this remarkable young man-how he had bearded the mighty in their dens and interviewed half the world in a few weeks. Already he had seen, among many others, Miss Gracie Fields, Mr. Alexander Korda, Mr. George Formby, Lord Alfred Douglas, Leslie Howard, Dr. Merton Hodge, Mr. Victor McLaglen, Mr. Hector Bolitho, Mr. Derek Patmore, Mr. Victor Gol-lanez-the list was interminable, almost unbelievable. ... "So I decided, ag he was returning to New Zealand almost immediately, I would write these few lines and let his readers know of the regard developed for him here. New Zealand has good reason to weleome him back aswvone of its best journalists and interviewers."
