RECREATION
IS OUTLINED
AT STATION
(By P/O N. McGregor)
In order to maintain high
morale amongst the personnel at

at Clinton where the modern
station theatre offers two show-
ings nightly plus a Saturday af-
ternoon matinee. First run pie -

seven changes a week, a new and

play volley ball, work out on the

the one or hree metre diving
boards, pitch horseshoes or simp-
