Olympians' Gift Berets : In London last week Australian women Olympians discarded their white felt issue hats, bought white berets with sprigs of wattle on the side, and went to Buckingham palace to be presented to the Queen.But even their new berets didn't please former Victorian amateur boxing competitor Mr. J. Gordon Jones, now a manufacturer in Sydney, when he saw a picture of the berets in The Herald.He made up a set of tam berets and basque berets in special white merino wool and sent them to Helsinki. The girls will receive one of each type on Tuesday. July 22, 1952.
