Son of Jane and Thomas STODDART, Walkeston, Mackay, Queensland
Mr. and Mrs. Stoddart were advised yesterday that their son, Pte. T. G. (Wildie) Stoddart has been missing in France since August 16. Private Stoddart is well known especially in football circles. He was a prominent player in the Rovers when football was popular in Mackay, and doubtless, was participating in a passing rush when be became separated from his comrades and was taken prisoner. His friends will sympathise with the parents in their anxiety for his safety and sincerely hope that be will yet be
traced. '
