Stanley Camp becomes The Military Internment Camp. But the Japanese military will not take full control for some time, and when it does the internees will not be treated as POWS, which seems to be what some worried relatives back in the UK fear when they get to hear of the new name.
Franklin Gimson likes the camp production of Laburnum Grove, noting in his diary that it contains 'more decent humour than is usually to be found in modern drama'.
