[This recording is identified at the end by a male announcer as an excerpt from a "Midday Bulletin for the Islands", so was probably recorded from Pacific broadcasts by Radio New Zealand, the NZBS shortwave service.]

End of the shipping news. An unidentified male broadcaster relays shipping movements in the Pacific, including ships due at Pitcairn Island in late December 1953/early January 1954.

Peter Sellers presents a preview of weekend horse racing meetings in New Zealand. He begins with a greeting to Kiwis in Korea. Horse racing meetings in Manawatu are previewed, with times given in GMT.
