THE BLIND MAN
DURING the last three weeks, Peter. the blind man, who is to be found, and heard, alongside Gordon Hutter at every ‘boxing and wrestling match held in the Auckland Town Hall, has been the victim of two accidents. First he was struck by a tram and injured, but, fortunately, not seriously. After three days in bed he was. about again, only to. be knocked down by a motor car. ‘This time he was in bed for almost a week, but this did not prevent him from being at his. usual place alongside the sports commentator just outside the ring. His quaint interjections and comments are enjoyed by listeners ° throughout New Zealand = and Australia. Letters are often received at I1YA -from Australian listeners asking for information about the sightless but cheerful man, Peter ‘has not missed a wrestling match for four years.
