Notice says International Red Cross are sponsoring a moving picture to be taken of life in the camp.

It was said that some planes which came over today (I'd heard them) made a 'V' formation, and that they exhaust-piped a 'V' in the sky, and that they dropped pamphlets.  ((I hadn't seen any))

Spent rest of our money on tomato ketchup and sugar.  I got rubber sandals from Welfare.

Mabel snowed under with re-knitting (unravelled) baby clothes ((for new camp babies.))

Lecture on 'Africa' by Dr McLeod  ((whose little boy had been 'blown-up'))
