Miss Laurantus Reunited After 24 Years In Australia
Miss Laurantus, a Greek island resident from Kethyra, arrived in Sydney after a 26 day flight via Athens and Port Said. She was reunited with her brother Jack Laurantus, whom she had not seen in 24 years, amid memories of occupation and war era fear. The story notes her adjustment, language challenges, and new sense of safety in Australia while detailing island conditions under German and Italian rule and postwar hardships.

Re-building of two great cities in postwar effort
Bristol Good Will Mission visited Hanover to explore cooperation between the two cities in reconstruction. They met officials and citizens, witnessed housing shortages and food rations, and discussed exchanges of students, sports teams, and choral concerts. They met officials once imprisoned by Nazis and a bishop sentenced to death, and urged joint rebuilding with humor, friendship, and common sense.
