This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 01 August 1961 "The three men pictured above are believed to have been the first arrivals at the Palmerston North Showgrounds for the France-Manawatu match. Having left New Plymouth at 7.15 p.m. yesterday, the three slept in a station wagon from midnight. They are (from the left): Messrs. I.C. Hulvert, W.M. Stening and N. Bullot. "We hope Manawatu will open the game up more than our men did," they said. The three are seen having breakfast."
