OF TIMES GONE BY: Derry and Inishowen in pictures - July 1996

In July 1996 Dr. Patrick Johnston was appointed the Ulster Cancer Foundation’s Professor of Oncology at Queen’s; a huger entry was recorded for the annual Malin Raft Race; and eighteen years old Fiona Gallagher, a pupil of the Phoenix School of Dancing in Derry, signed a contract with Riverdance The Show. As ever, the ‘Journal’ photographers were out and about.
