PUBLICITY VOLUNTEERS FROM AUSTRALIA AND 
NEW GUINEA AND THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS 
In our first issue we published a list of the many volunteers from three 
quadrants of the Pacific together with their services. By distributing no- 
tices, broadcasting information, and passing on copies of the Pacific Bird 
Observer , they and many like them are greatly assisting the banding program. 
Listed below are those from the Australian and New Guinea area who have helped 
to publicize our program. Names of others in the southwest quadrant will be 
listed in future issues of the Pacific Bird Observer.
