FRIDAY'S EVACUATION SCENES

THE BAND

Poignant were the scenes at the Kowloon Cricket Club and the Kowloon wharves on Friday when 2,000 women and children were evacuated to Manila. Here are some typical scenes gathered by our roving cameraman. Top left we see evacuces, smiling cheerfully despite the ordeal ahead, as they register at the K.C.C., prior to embarkation. Top right, a farewell outside the club before the young lady boards the bus to take her to the ship. Opposite, a cheer ful little girl waves a goodbye to friends en route to the dock. Above, rain did not aid the comfort of the evacuees. Ju this picture a large Chinese umbrella affords necessary cover for a mother and her baby from the bus to the ship. Bottom left, Kowloon evacuees leaving the bus at the entrance to the wharves, with two bonny kiddies apparently undismayed by the evacuation. Bottom right, registered evacuees depart from the K.C.C. with babies, hand luggage and the ever-willing amahs.--Ming Yuen,
