These pictures and that on the following page also show scenes from one of the major private engineering feats of the year, the stringing of overhead trans- mission lines right across Hong Kong island to carry power from the new generating station at Ap Lei Chau to major population centres on the northern shore. Skilled Hong Kong workmen, working with an Australian con- tractor, completed the job on schedule to provide an additional 132,000 volts capacity to the Island's electric grid.
