BEST TOBACCO MONEY CAN BUY
There is a good reason why Rothmans is the World’s largest selling – most wanted King Size Virginia. It’s simply that Rothmans extra length, finer filter and the best tobacco money can buy, give you a cooler, smoother, more satisfying taste. Try them yourself and you’ll agree.
ROTHMANS KING SIZE REALLY SATISFIES

To these people in particular and the public in general, “Photo News” wishes a successful 1966.

Back Cover. Regarded in a matter-of-fact way by many Hastings residents, Oak Avenue is still one of the city’s loveliest scenic attractions. With its quiet tranquillity, it is uniquely beautiful on hot summer days.

Black-backed gulls, some 300 of them, are heaped into this land rover after being poisoned near the boundary of the Napier Airport, recently. The carcases of more than 1,000 birds were picked up in one morning. The operation, which is planned and being operated by the Department of Internal Affairs, is a safety measure to protect passenger aircraft using the aerodrome. One plane landed recently after hitting 11 birds while making its approach.

It’s the harvest time again and the giant processing machines are churning their way over the Hawke’s Bay cropping lands, gathering the peas and green crops for canning plants. One of the earliest yields was in the Fernhill area, where this picture was taken.

A well-known and colourful personality of St. John, Mr. Whiti Mane, was mourned by nearly 500 people during his funeral recently. Whiti, as he was known to hundreds of Hawke’s Bay people, endeared himself to the people as a capable and efficient ambulance driver. Whiti was a former sergeant in the Maori Battalion and his friends extended just as generously to the pakeha people as his own race. The funeral was attended by representatives of the Hastings police, Napier and Hastings St. John ambulance brigades, transport department, Hastings City Council, nurses and doctors of the Memorial Hospital and many Maori and pakeha friends. The coffin is borne from St. Matthew’s Church by representatives of the St. John Ambulance Brigade.

ODD SHOTS

A day long awaited was realised for Police Sergeant Colin MacDonald, when, after spending 7 months in Napier Hospital, he was discharged recently. Colin, who spent 10 days in a coma and six weeks semi- conscious, was badly injured when struck by a car while attending a fatal accident on April 12th, near Napier’s southern boundary.

How many killed in this accident might well be the question, but in actual fact the three young occupants escaped with minor lacerations and one had a fractured finger. How lucky can you be? The car was involved in a collision with an army truck at Pakipaki. The impact ripped the front wheel assembly off the truck.
