Elva - I believe they were The Cape Argus (evening) and The Cape Times (morning) I don't think the southern suburbs had their own newspapers until much later. But there are others who might have better knowledge of these things who I'm sure will assist you.

Would Wynberg district have had their own community newspaper around same period? Where would one be able to do newspaper article searches?

Die Burger, also. May have been one or two smaller weeklies also. I seem to remember Die Suiderstem? Editorial Department of Cape Times, Cape Argus or Die Burger could probably help you. Go well!
