COVER: Our cover photograph of Hone Tuwhare is by Ans Westra. Mr Tuwhare's first volume of verse, ‘No Ordinary Sun’, appeared last month: this is probably the first time that a contemporary poet of Maori descent has published a collection of his poetry. An article on Hone Tuwhare appears on page four.

Acknowledgements: Of the two poems published on pages 4 and 5. ‘The Old Place’, has previously appeared in the ‘N.Z. Listener’. ‘Historical Review’, and as a preface to Noel Hilliard's ‘Maori Girl’. ‘Friend’ has been published in ‘Northland Magazine’ and ‘N.Z. Monthly Review’. Both are included in Mr Tuwhare's collection ‘No Ordinary Sun’, published by Blackwood and Janet Paul.
