Editorial This is your record of achievements at Swinburne for 1965. The few are honoured, the athletes applauded and the contributors have their thoughts and names in print. In an attempt to include more of the atmosphere of the school in print. form notes have been gathered. Although of little value as literary work, we feel they have succeeded in treating this atmosphere, and thus have an important place in the magazine. To the many who have contributed and given assistance go our sincere thanks. W e are greatly indebted to Miss Wemyss, who has been responsible for the design and lay-out of "The Open Door".

POT-POURRI If you don't know what "pot-pourri" means, you can look it up in one of the Oxford Dictionaries, but not, please, until you have read this, and then you will be able to judge whether it is an appropriate title for this article. My Mother used to make one kind of pot-pourri, and keep it—but that was years ago, about the time the Girls' School was started in a big, two-storey house which stood where the Ethel Swinburne Centre is now. That house had been converted into three class rooms, in one of which there were two cupboards, the first holding all the girls' library books, the second all the science apparatus. In front of the house was a playground, just big enough for an assembly; the girls' basket-ball court was in the quadrangle between the Cookery Department and the Art School. The steel-capped pipes which held the supports for the nets are still there. W h e n a game was in progress, the boys, who then did their wood­work and sheet-metal work in rooms on the ground floor of the Art School, used to crowd to the doors, if they got a chance, to watch. And when the boys came out to play, all 500 of them would run and jump and throw balls to one another across that quadrangle, and about

other narrow spaces in the same block of buildings, so that teachers and diploma students moving about were quite likely to be hit by some flying object. It has taken fifteen years to sort out that hotch­potch; to put the boys into new buildings, with their own playground, which is still not com­pletely cleared of old houses; to transfer the girls to their present site, which may be temporary, and which in any case lacks suitable accommodation although there are two basket­ball courts; and to make a start on providing suitable buildings for diploma students. Those fifteen years have seen other changes, too. Not long ago there were neither profession­al nor commercial courses for girls, while boys in form IV were in either the trade or the diploma entrance groups. More recently to each school has been added a fifth form, with a wide variety of leaving technical courses, but the planning for this addition began five years ago. If it took so long to bring about what is happen­ing now, what future changes are likely to result from present proposals, and when are they likely to happen? Of course, I can't promise anything, but I might mention some things which are being discussed. I hope before long that the frontage to the Boys' School will be cleared; also that in 1965 it will be possible to equip one room in that school for commercial work. For boys, also, a one-year post-leaving technician's certificate may be established, but not before 1967. It is more difficult to see any early start being made on the badly - needed combined hall and gymnasium. It is just as hard to see, in the near future, anything more than slight additions and improvements to our present accommodation for girls. But there is the possibility of the introduction, not necessarily at this College, of an entirely new post-leaving course for girls, a course which will lead to a Diploma of General Science. Which brings me back to this word, "pot-pourri". I am looking at the "Shorter Oxford Dictionary", where I see that "pot-pourri" has several meanings. It may be a stew, a hotch-potch, which is what our accommodation used to be, much more than it is now; it may be a mixture of dried petals of different flowers, which is what my Mother used to put in the linen cupboard to scent the contents; it may refer to a literary medley—well, this article is certainly a medley, even if not a literary com­position; but—what's this? "Pot-pourri" comes from the French language and means "rotten pot"! Well, I hope not.

This year has been a series of firsts for me, as it has been for many of you. It may have been your first year at Swinburne, your first time as form captain, the first time that you have been a prefect or even looming ahead your first position. For me, it has been my first year as Head Mistress, the first time for many years that the Girls' School has had not one basketball court but two basketball courts, and the first time that I have had to organize a school that was being renovated. What chaos resulted! Do you remember, when girls came to see me, that they had to climb under and over ladders, and then try to see m e amid desks and cupboards? S o m e times you wondered into which room you would be moving next for your lesson. After all this moving and chaos, dust and dirt, new ceilings and painted walls, I am left with a very pleasant feeling. Though there were some difficult times, everybody co-operated to keep the school working. From the Director of the school right down to the smallest first-former, each member of the school worked together. Have you ever wondered what would happen in a school if every person pulled in a different direction? What an impossible situation we would have. How much easier does school and life become when we all work together. Do you remember the Prefects versus the Staff basketball match? This was co-operation with a capital C. I do not know whether one can say that the Prefects and the Staff altogether co­operated on the basketball court, but I think everybody thoroughly enjoyed the spectacle. Girls behaved beautifully, and the Boys' School Staff provided the Umpire, and the "Seeing Eye" Dog Fund benefited by your donations. W h e n you leave this school and move into the wider world you will find that whatever you do, whether it be in an office, in a shop, in a work­room or in a tertiary institution, life will be much more pleasant for you individually and for all those around you if you co-operate with those in authority, and with your workmates and friends. Co-operate and smile. It is amazing the amount of happiness that a person can give to others if they have a cheerful smile. W h e n you receive this magazine another school year will have drawn to its end. Books will be put away ready for another year, or put away with a sigh of relief that school is over for ever, or perhaps put away with a tear or two. What­ever life has in store for you I wish you success and happiness. To the members of Staff (teaching and others) who have been such a willing band of happy workers and who have helped m e so much in my first year, my thanks and appreciation. To those members of Staff who will not be with us in 1966 due to marriage, my best wishes for your future happiness.

To our loved Music Teacher, who is leaving us to have a well-earned rest, our best wishes, and do come and visit us. To the members of the P.T.A. Committee and the Canteen workers, thank you for your help and co-operation throughout the year. The the school could not function without your assistance. A special thank you to the Administrative Staff who have always been so cheerful and helpful with all my problems. To all parents, students and staff the Com­pliments of the Season and every wish for a successful year in 1966. J. F. Eltham,

Headmistress, Girls' School.

To be associated with Swinburne Technical College is to be associated with a school rich in tradition. It is this tradition and the close association of the College development with the Swinburne family that makes our school different from many other schools. I feel confident that time will record 1965 as one worthy of this tradition. A s each year passes we see many changes in teaching methods, changes which are designed to give better assistance to students in their school progress and better preparation for their future citzenship. Possibly one of the most helpful of these changes over recent years is the increased co-operation between parents, teachers and students. The excellent response by the parents of our boys to our invitation to attend the Parent-Teacher nights, and the stimulating discussions that resulted is proof in itself that these func­tions are vital to our education programme. For the record, the parents of 260 students

attended the Parent-Teacher nights held in Term 2 and were given more than 970 interviews with their sons' subject teachers. Another of these changes is the increase in the number of courses available to form 4 and form 5 students at Technical Schools. The actual course that will operate in these forms for 1966 at Swinburne could alter slightly, but on present indications we will be able to operate the following classes:— Form 5 Leaving Technical Certificate 1. Applied Science Course which leads to

Diploma Courses and with certain passes to Matriculation.

2. Commerce Course—pre-requisite for Com­merce Diploma and Commerce and Account­ancy Certificate Courses.

3. Art Course—Pre-requisite for Art Diploma Courses.

4. Technician Courses—Leading to Technician Courses and Advanced Apprenticeship Courses.

Form 4—Intermediate Technical Certificate 1. Applied Science Course leading to Form 5

Applied Science or Technician Course. 2. Commerce Course leading to Form 5 Com­

merce Course. 3. Art Courses leading to Form 5 Art Course. 4. Trade Course in Fitting and Machining or

Woodwork, Plumbing or Electrical Fitting leading to Form 5 Technician or Apprentice­ship.

The general trend is for employment bodies to select the boys with the highest qualifications. This makes it imperative for the ambitious boy to stay at school for as long as his parents advise. My advice is for the boy to remain at school at least until he has completed a Form 4 course. The course selected should be at the level suited to the boy's scholastic capabilities. I would like to take this opportunity of thanking all members of staff within the college, and in particular the Boys' School staff for their loyal and effective co-operation throughout the year. I give equally sincere thanks to all parents who so willingly have given their support towards the efficient operation of the school in its many aspects. The Prefects, Form Captains and Monitors by their leadership and willing performance of sundry tasks have again earned our grateful thanks. Finally to all associated with the College, I extend the Compliments of the Season, and to those who are leaving for employment or for further studies the Staff's best wishes for a successful career. C. E. Bawden, Headmaster, Boys' School.

RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION

Rev. J. Waite, B.A., Convenor Rev. S. Franklin Rev. K. W . Prentice Rev. G. Hall, L.Th. Mr. E. Curmi Father J. M. Hollis, S.J.

Many centuries ago, a poet wrote "The fool has said in his heart—there is no God." Other poets expressed in the Psalms their awareness of God working in their midst in ordinary daily life. Men in all ages have felt there must be someone outside normal contacts from w h o m all comes, and to wh o m we can turn in our joys and sorrows. In a sudden crisis men will cry "God help us". Then like, the lifer, there are those who give heartfelt thanks for the joy of living. It is rare to find anyone who really has no belief at all. There are plenty whose thinking is woolley and there are plenty to w h o m God is as real as the people they see each day. In a community there are those who love their tragedies, those who are "succes­sful", but the worthwhile ones are those who remember that man does not live by bread alone, the people who always find time to do something for others. These are the ones who really hold society together. No leader can succeed without followers, and one can always find a good many hard working, devoted servants of God. People often ask m e how I know there is a God. My answer is twofold—look around and think what you feel. This fascinating beautiful world is full of the most amazing and complicated things. The apparently completely empty desert is covered with millions of tiny flowers, all beautifully formed, too small to be seen by the human eye. Then there are those times when we feel the presence of God, when what we call our conscience guides us in the way we should go. Men and women know they are called to serve in some special capacity, and give to the world an infinite variety of loving service. In our quiet times we communicate with God, and are refreshed. In our weaknes­ses we are strengthened. I always feel that if we lost out of the world all prayers and thought of God, we would not get much out of life. Joshua was a fine man of God, and spoke from his heart when he said, "Choose you this day w h o m you will serve—but as for me and my home, we will serve the Lord". May God bless you all at this Christmas, when through the Christ Child we realise God's awareness of us all, and our value in his sight. The Rev. G. Hall, All Saints', Kooyong.

PREFECTS

1965 proved to be a successful year for the prefects of the boys and girls school. Our first official engagement took place during March when a P.T.A. meeting was held in the Ethel Swinburne Centre. It was here that the new prefects were introduced to the members of the P.T.A. Also in March was the freshers welcome to the new students of the girls' school. Soon after this Mr. and Mrs, Tylee attended an afternoon tea party to meet the new prefects. The girls catered for the food and the boys provided the drinks. On Tuesday, 11th May we held our first social and we were pleased to say that it was a great success. In short we are pleased to say that all three socials we held were very successful and we would like to thank all the bands and organizers and those that attended.

The school this year had its first open night and it was a tremendous success and everyone that attended no doubt had an interesting time. It gave us great pleasure in December to give a Christmas party to a group of orphans. There were drinks, cakes and sweets and at the conclusion they were given a Christmas present. W e are happy that we were able to entertain and bring some more happiness into a few lives. In conclusion,we would like to thank the other prefects, the prefects' master Mr. McFarland, and Miss W e b b prefect mistress, without whose help we would have floundered. Also I would like to thank Mr. Bawden and all other teachers that helped us in our duties.

Parents' and Teachers' Association

Once again it is time for me to report on behalf of the Parents' and Teachers' Association which is now in its thirteenth year. I am sorry to report that the usual Flower Show and Socials were not held this year mainly because the regular organizers of these events were transfer­red to other schools. Miss Levens, who organized the Flower Show, was appointed Principal of the Box Hill Girls' Technical School and Miss Eltham who took over from Miss Levens as Headmistress of the Girls' School has had a very hard year owing to Staff short­age. Mr. Bawden who took Mr. Peake's position when Mr. Peake was transferred to Macleod Boys' Technical School, has shown great interest in the P.T.A., the pupils and the staff. Mr. McKenzie, who was doing quite a job handling the finance of the Canteen, was transferred to Preston and Mr. Hall has very capably taken over his duties ably assisted by Mrs. Lidgerwood. Mrs. Penrose, through pressure of work and indifferent health was obliged to give up the task of Editor of "The Open Door" and I am sure that whoever takes over this job will be hard pressed to keep up the standard set by her.

This year the P.T.A. has given to the School, Scholarships, Books, Furnish­ings and equipment for the First Aid Room, Pot plants, Shrubs and Tubs, an Automatic Monitor Bell and many other items which are not supplied by the Education Department. Mrs. Reid is still doing a wonderful job as manageress of the Canteens and mainly due to Mr. Bawden's efforts, Mrs. Reid and Mrs. Jeeves have had the help of more Mothers in the Boys' Canteen than ever before, but reports from Mrs. Fearon, who is in charge of the Girls' Canteen, show there is still a dire shortage of mothers over there, and she and Mrs. Marshall and the few mothers who do assist must work very hard to obtain such good results. My thanks to all concerned with the smooth working of the Canteens and I hope you will all continue the good work again next year. In conclusion, I wish to say that after seven years with the P.T.A., four of which I have been President, I will be resigning at the end ofthis year and I cannot express the pleasure those seven short years have given me and the welath of experience I have gained. To the many friends I have made through the P.T.A. I say, keep up the good work you are doing!

THE BIG WET

Some years ago about the year dot, there lived an ambitious man who made his fortune as an interior decorator of caves. His bison and other designs were known far and wide. One day this man decided he needed a holiday. After a visit to the local travel agency he decided that he wanted to go one better than the dino­saurs and log rafts, which were then the latest word in travel; he would build a ship bigger and better than anyone. Using his vast resources, this man began to build his ship in his backyard, which faced on to the sea. The size of the ship was unprecedented, and many people came to witness the huge structure. The world's press followed the progress of the building, giving the people a first-class view of the wonder. Then one fine day, about a year after it had been com­menced, the ship was launched by the man's wife, who smashed a gourd of fire­water against the prow. C a m e sailing day, the huge crowds gathered to witness the sailing of the mightiest ship afloat. Aboard was the young man's immediate family and a few pets. No sooner was the ship out of port than the rain started. Although this was not completely unexpected, this was no ord­inary storm. After four days those on board began to complain about the rain and the way it kept everybody inside. The children complained that they could not sunbake on deck and play deck quoits. The elders of the family, who had been looking forward to a happy holiday of sight-seeing, were becoming disappoint­ed.The gallic Riviera had been swallowed by flood waters and very soon all that was visible were the peaks of the highest mountains, and even these were slowly disappearing. And the rain came still. It is said that the ship's compliment of

animals was increased during this time, when, as the legend goes, it rained cats and dogs, but many refuse to believe this tale. Unbelievers claim this was a story told among voyagers to while away the time. After the 15th day out there was no land in view at all, and the navigator could not tell whether they were over land or sea. After that the only sign of land was a giant pterodactyl which flew past with a tree in its teeth. O n the notion that the bird might be going or heading for land, the master of the ship followed it, but found that it used its tree to perch on. It floated the tree and used it to rest. It had been raining solidly for 90 days (and some say for 90 nights as well but it was too dark in those days to be sure), and the ship dwellers were getting ac­customed to the life, when it suddenly stopped. So used were the voyagers to the rain that they still walked about with umbrellas for two days afterwards. They did not notice the flood subsiding either, and when the ship struck hard on Mount Avaret (that's what the sign said) they thought the world was ending. They finally realized that this was actually dry land (well, land anyway) and set out to demolish the ship and build houses on top of the mountains. Although it is actually thought that the Americans in­vented the penthouse, actually this is the true origin. However, the Americans did at least use sky-scrapers to support their penthouses. Thus you have how rain can effect holiday plans, and have done so since time immemorial. This old tradition is very nobly carried on by the rains of today and seems unlikely to cease at any time in the future. Malcolm Davidson.

SURFING FUN

I love to surf where the waves are high Where the honey yellow sand is dry,

Where the water glistens in the sun, And we are surfing and having fun.

At night the moon shines very bright Oh, what a most beautiful sight,

A stomp is held on the beach At arms length the water is from our reach.

The morning breaks, we pack our things Memories in our minds do ring,

The happiness of a day we shared, Of surfing in the sunlight fair.

THE MALLEE TODAY

This former wasteland in the northwest of Victoria is now a productive and im­portant part of our state. Earlier this year, during our first term holidays, I did a one thousand mile trip through the Mallee and was surprised at the interesting and unusual things I saw. The main landmark at everv town was the

giant wheat silos. The Mallee is mainly wheat country, although quite a lot of farms have sheep.

The method of working the land is so much easier now, because of the large

tractors and farm machinery used. This means that farmers can group together to work each others farms more quickly and cheaply. The land is flat so that you can see for miles and the roads are straight from one town to another. The sand still is a bit of a problem and it is strange to see long iron fences along

the railway lines to stop the sand drifts blocking them.

W e went through the little desert to

Pinaroo, South Australia, and it was strange having to set our watches back

half an hour when we crossed the border. On the way home to Melbourne via Bendigo we saw many irrigation channels and the farms which depend on them

looking so green and pleasant compared to the dry, dusty Mallee.

Technical Schools Festival of Arts—August, 1965

It was Monday, August the 16th and everyone was tensed up and excited as we waited impatiently for the bus to take us to the Technical Schools Festival of Arts. It was the opening day and many important people would be there, in­cluding the Minister for Education. As we walked into the hall,we saw many unusual musical instruments made by pupils of various technical schools. W e sat in the front, being second on the programme. The festival was opened by the Minister for Education, Mr. Bloomfleld, but before he opened it, we all sang the National Anthem. Then we all sang "Jerusalem". The first choir was Richmond Boys' Choir who sang "The Trout", and "Grandfather's Clock". W e all thought the song "Grandfather's Clock" was the best as they were accompanied by an accordian and one of the boys clicked a sort of castinet which made ticks just like a clock. The Swinburne Junior Girls' choir sang next and we were televised by A B V Channel 2. In the middle of the pro­gramme the guest speaker, the Reverend D. B. Clarke spoke, but before he spoke we all sang the Skye Boat Song and the Sandringham Girls choir and girls from Swinburne sang the descant. A play was acted by the Fawkner Drama Group and it was called "The Farce of Master Pierre Pathelin". The after­noon was very enjoyable and every­one is looking forward to next year's festival (and we all hope it will be as good as this years'). Everyone sincerely thanks Miss Weir for playing for us. It was nice to see our former head mistress, Miss Levens, in the audience.

The Swinburne Madrigal Group was present for the second session of the Technical Schools Festival of Arts. The guest speaker on this occasion was Professor W . F. Frederick who gave an interesting address on the arts, and the ability of all people to be creative. During his talk he showed us various handcrafts from his collection. On the whole the programme was not as enjoyable as on other occasions, but some Junior Boys' Choirs were quite entertaining. For the fifth session of the Festival some fifth form girls, together with the Swin­burne Diploma Group, were in attend­ance. A cellist, Mr. John Kennedy, was the speaker, and his cello playing and talk were enjoyed by everyone. A mixed choir, from Dandenong, sang two songs very well. They were "Carol of the Bells" and "Love Somebody, Yes I Do". The boys from Brunswick were delightful in their presentation of "Dame Get Up and Bake Your Pies". W e enjoyed taking part in this session, and were sorry we could not all stay for the entire programme. The last session attended by our girls was the best musically, and was enjoyed by all members of our Senior Choir, Mr. Mervyn Simpson, first trumpeter in the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, gave an entertaining talk. He played a varied selection of trumpet pieces. A group of boys and girls from Sebastopol were versatile in their folk singing, their girls choir who sang spirituals and their verse speaking. There were many other schools who made interesting contributions to the afternoon. Amongst these were the Colac boys, who sang "The Whistling Gypsy," with a whistling chorus; and the senior girls from Box Hill who sang two beautiful songs "An Eriskay Love Lilt" and "Come Unto Him" from Handel's Messiah.

The Williamson

Sutherland Opera Season

As most of us felt that seven guineas was rather expensive for a ticket to hear Joan Sutherland perform; we were glad to be given the opportunity of hearing her company for the price of one guinea. So, one Wednesday afternoon in July, fifty girls went to hear "The Elixir Of Love" by Donizetti.

This opera is gay and lightheaded. It was beautifully produced, with colourful cos­tumes and scenery. The plot is rather silly, but the music is tuneful and the singing was lovely. W e had expected Grand Opera to be a bit highbrow, but we could all understand this one. W e en­joyed ourselves all the more because we had the best seats in the dress circle.

The Visit The Immortal Hour of Peter Maxwell-Davies

On 15th April we went to hear "The

Immortal Hour" at the Union Theatre which is very small, with squeaky seats,

and uncomfortable arm rests. This opera is written by the contemporary English composer, Rutland Boughton, and was produced by Lennox Brewer, conducted by Harold Badger, and performed by the Melba Conservatorium Opera Class. The conductor was a small vigorous man. W e could just see his head and the stick which was waving frantically in the air. I thought he was an excellent conductor. The story of "The Immortal Hour" is that of a beautiful spirit, Etain, who married a mortal king, Eochaidh. After a year of happiness, a stranger, Midir, also a spirit, enters the palace. Trouble en­sues, Etain returns to Fairyland and Eochaidh dies of sorrow. Etain suited the part perfectly. Her voice was beautiful and so was she. The king had a rich, deep baritone voice. Midir had a rich tenor voice and was an inter­esting actor. The scenery was well arranged and the chorus was very good. W e were inter­ested to see Despa Adgemis taking an active part in the chorus. The only thing that disappointed m e were the old dull costumes. Although parts of this opera was amusing (unintentionally), I enjoyed it very much.

At 9.30 a.m. on Tuesday, the first of June,

the Girls' School assembled in the Ethel

Swinburne Hall. Upon the arrival of Miss Eltham and her guest w e were introduced to a young Englishman known as Peter

Maxwell-Davies. Most of us had already

been told a little about this brilliant mod­ern composer, but I don't believe we were fully prepared for such a person. This

bright, young, enchanting personality was quite different from what we expected. He was about medium height with dark,

rather unruly hair. Mr Maxwell-Davies had brought with him a tape-recording of his

pupils' work, but because of difficulties with the tape recorder, he talked to us whilst the necessary repairs were made.

He spoke of his arrival in Italy and the diffi­culties with the language. By then we had

been completely captivated by his fascin­ating charm and were in a light-hearted mood, quite looking forward to more of his yarns. But we were turned from his life storytothe interesting collection of "Master Pieces", composed by children of 9 years and upward, which were played to us. Finally it was time for us to reluctantly leave the hall and return to our normal routine. W e will rarely have the privilege of hearing such an inspiring young gentleman.

Music Festival

Have you ever attended a school festival which is running very smoothly until some person suddenly realizes there will

not be enough items to fill the programme?

Well it has happened! On Wednesday 12th May, a Music Festival was held in the Ethel Swinburne Centre. Six schools took part in the Festival:— Box Hill Girls', Box Hill Boys', Canterbury Girls', Sandringham Girls', Prahran Girls' and naturally Swinburne Girls'. The Festival, as I mentioned, was running beautifully until some bright person sug­gested that time, instead of running out as is usually the case was going to be left over. However, a student from Box Hill Boys' who had been very popular during his school's item came to our rescue and sang a folk song accompanying himself on his guitar. His performance proved to be one of the highlights of the Festival, and he very adequately filled the gap left by Richmond Boys' who were unable to come at the last minute. Another sim­

ilar successful item was performed by a Swinburne student, Anita Wilson, and two charades, Tchaikovsky and Syn­copation, enacted by Helen Redfern, Dawn Rutzou and myself, were easily guessed. A more unusual item, and perhaps even more successful than any other on the programme, was performed by Mrs. Stockigt from Prahran Girls' School who gave an oboe solo accompanied by Mr. John Symons on the piano. All the schools sang well for so early in the year, and altogether the Music

Festival was both successful and en­

joyable. Cheryl Wilson, 5B

The Annual Church Service

At the Annual Church Service in the Auburn Methodist Church on 5th March, the Senior Choir made its debut for the year. After the bible readings by the two head prefects, Cheryl Wilson and David Mayer, the choir sang an arrangement of "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name", and the Madrigal Group sang the lovely trio "Lift Thine Eyes" from the oratorio "Elijah" by Mendellsohn.

Mr. Hall was the speaker and his very interesting address on "Achievement" brought this inspiring service to a close.

A Wet Day

A wet day is a lovely day Forthe little children of the town. They love to see their faces gleam In the water that's so clean. They love to splash in every puddle, Just to get their feet wet. Oh! Isn't that fun on a wet day.

They skip and dance to their heart's content.

Then all of a sudden they stop at the gate. Click flop clap shhh. Click flop clap shhh, Silently creep through the hall. "John, Peter, is that you?" "O-oh, now we've had it!" "John, Peter, what have you done? C o m e with me!" A few minutes later, "Ach, oh, e-e-e!" "And off to bed with you."

Forget-me-not

One day when the flowers looked so beautiful

The father gave them names Back came one little blue eyed one, All timidly it came Standing at the Master's feet, and gazing in his eyes

He said, with low and trembling tones, With sweet and gentle grace, "Dear God, the name you gave to me, I'm sorry I have forgot". And kindly looked the Father down And said, forget-me-not.

Food! It lures the girls and taunts the women,

It fills them out and stays the famine That's always there, (and that's no shammin')

But the things that go inside to fill 'em!

My!

There's koola-poles, and freddo-frogs And lollies, toffees, soft drinks, chocs, Boston buns and licorice blocks, And pies that spill (to feed the dogs).

But! That's not all that girls will eat, At home it's worse! the mothers

bleat, Then jellies, cakes, bread and meat, Fill up the girls' hollow feet.

So ... . I'm telling you—when tummies rumble, Fingers into purses fumble, The canteen lures, the wilful tumble,

And greedy mouths do food-stuffs crumble.

The Massacre

There came the sound of flying feet, A s horses galloped down the street; Bullets flew and down men fell, "Injuns" came the distant yell.

They circled the town, arrows flying, W o m e n and children in huts were crying; The houses were burnt, the flames leapt high,

The thick black smoke rose, to the sky.

All through the nightthetown lay burning, The half crazed Indians kept returning; Not one person survived that town, Not even a mouse, said one with a frown.

I, sit in my chair and gaze and gaze, I've been trying to think of a poem for

days, My teacher says it has to be good, I know she's right and I know I should, But what sort of topic can one employ, About a girl or perhaps a boy, About a horse or perhaps a cat, But what could anyone write about that, So I think I'll submit this idle ditty, And hope some folks will think it witty.

"THE MATCH OF THE CENTURY" About a week before we broke up for the September holidays, Cheryl was approached by Mrs. Scott, who pre­sented her with an invitation chal­lenging the "PREFECTS" to a basket­ball match against the "staff". The "PREFECTS", not doubting their ab­ility to win, commenced to prepare for the match. Uniforms were collected and the fifth formers faithfully or­ganized a cheer squad. After a week of probing by the staff in an effort to unfold our team, tactics and schemes, the day was upon us. With the school crowded around the basketball court we allowed the weaker team to lead onto the court first—the "STAFF". The more powerful team, armed with various weapons, then followed. (PREFECTS). The game (shambles?) then commen­ced, umpired by "referee" Couche.

24

Speedy Sal took the first centre pass and every one to follow. The Fairy Queen managed to retrieve this pass by tackling her opponent and throwing her to the ground. Senile Sam caught the next pass and attempted to goal but the PREFECTS' excellent de­fending sent the ball up the opposite end. Suddenly, before we knew it two other balls were in play, with the staff this time attempting to goal from the top of a step ladder—they even missed this one. The game continued with the umpy continually favouring the staff on throwings, steppings, etc. The first quarter ended after ten minutes of play. The P R E F E C T S willingly allowed their opponents five minutes to re­cuperate before the last three quarters. The next two quarters were consider­ably short—probably because the staff were tiring and it is my guess that they

requested this as a favour from umpy "referee" Couche. The final quarter was rather a walk over for the PRE­FECTS as by this time the staff were near exhaustion. The final whistle blew, the match was declared finished and the staff were helped from the court by their opon-ents. A presentation followed in which the staff were unfairly declared winners and were presented with the perpetual cup to be played off every fifty years. The P R E F E C T S realised that they must give the staff the satisfaction of thinking they won and took it in their stride. Of course the P R E F E C T S understood that the staff had more money to bribe the umpire than they, and took this as the reason for the staff's miraculous win.

This year the Inter School Athletic Sports were held on the 22nd Sep­tember, at Olympic Park. The pro­gramme was arranged differently from previous years. The schools were or­ganized in divisions according to the number of students per school. Swin­burne was in division B. Although the girls trained hard we didn't do as well this year in the track events as we had previously. However we made up for this by doing ex­ceptionally well in the field events. W e gained one third and two seconds for the track events and five firsts and two seconds for the field events. The Junior Leader Ball team also gained second place with the result that

26

Swinburne finished equal third in the Aggregate cup. Congratulations to the following girls: Carmel Stuart who broke the previous record for Open Javelin by 2' 7" with a throw of 92' 9", Carol Rees for setting a record of 77' 5" for Junior Javelin, Joan Lewer who equalled the Senior Long Jump record, Sheila McLurkin 2nd place Junior Long Jump, Cheryl Rothe 1st place Junior Discus, Glenda Beattie 1st place Junior High Jump and Nita Boutlis 2nd place Junior Shot-put. Many thanks to all the teachers who helped train the competitors. Good luck for next year.

CRICKET TEAM This was the third year that we had entered a team in the Saturday Morn­ing competition. The team was pro­moted to "A" Grade and although we lost one match, we won the School Girls' premiership. One of the team's best displays was against M.L.C. when Carol Auty, the captain, brought off a hat-trick. The team would like to thank Mrs. Scott, Mr. Pewtress, Mr. Couche and also the two Swinburne boys who have given up their lunch times to help our practices. W e would like to wish the team the best of luck for 1966. Tennis Team L H. Rawson, R. Phinios, D. Gilbert, I. Taranec, K. Humphrey (Capt).

TENNIS NOTES The tennis team this year has had a very enjoyable season. With the con­sistent coaching of Miss Hudspeth the team rose to heights which it would never have obtained without her gen­erous help and co-operation. The girls in the team also co-operated doing the best they could every match away and at home. W e also owe Mrs. Scott a vote of thanks for giving us much assistance, as we had a court and net in our own ground this year which we never had before. Volleyball Team B. G. Steerie, L. Blake, D.

VOLLEYBALL Volleyball was introduced into the inter-school competition for the first time this year. W e lost only one match for the season and finished runners-up to Sandringham in our zone. W e would like to thank Mrs. Robinson and Mr. Baltrunas for coaching us throughout the year and we look forward to an even more successful year in 1966.

SOFTBALL

Swinburne softballers, keen and bright, Wanted the Premiership Cup. Intensively they trained each week Never giving up. Batted, bowled and fielded Until they thought they'd crack Ran round and round that diamond Nearly wore a track. Every girl was working hard.

So they could win each match. Often forgot to use their gloves For taking an easy catch. T o conquer all the other teams Became their one great aim And that's just what "A" team did Lost not a game. Little "B" just lost one

Played the girls of Brighton Really showed good sportmanship Ended their winning run. Mighty "A" team played the boys In triumph took the game Eleven to three the final score Really earned their fame. Success was here to stay!

(We would like to congratulate Carmel Stuart, the Captain of A Team on her selection in the Victorian Softball Team —Under 17).

HOCKEY

The girls' hockey team was a little disappointing this year. Throughout the season we tried hard to build up team spirit and feel this was achieved although we were unsuccessful in the scoring of goals. Thanks go to Mrs. Falkner for her untiring enthusiasm and to all those who gave us support.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL The School basketball teams had a most successful season. "B" team which was captained by Jill Davies won all of their games and finished premiers in the Metropolitan Girls' Technical School Association. The " A " team with Rosemary Lock as captain, suffered only one defeat, but this cost us a place in the finals. On behalf of all the girls, our sincere thanks go to Mrs. Scott who coached us throughout the season.

SWIMMING SPORTS

The Girls' Inter-Technical Schools Swim­ming Sports were held early in April and the girls had trained very hard. The train­ing involved arriving at Hawthorn Pool at 7.45 a.m. every morning and despite the many groans and complaints, the girls appeared very^keen. The team did slightly better than last year and came third in the Aggregate trophy. Our congratulations go to Kristine Collins and Carmel Stuart, who did well in in­dividual events.

*EE «'Uf Oft MILE *UN Most traditions are carried on to em­phasise or commemorate a joyous or sacred occasion, but there is always someone who turns up with an exception. In a small unknown town situated in the south of an equally unknown continent in the mysterious Southern Hemisphere, there is a Technical College, and it is the tradition of this college to hold an annual three mile run. To those who have participated in this tortuous and most barbaric event, it brings back memories best forgotten, but to those either by a stroke of luck or genius, whichever the case may be, who have managed to "crawl" their way out of it, if they are sadistically minded that is, for anyone who could laugh at the mangled specimens of manhood who literally crawl on their hands and knees up the gravel path to the finish; these people must have a sadistic outlook or are just plain "nuts"! Then to see these

30

wrecks put on one last effort and break through the finish line and collapse on the grass in a small withered heap—it's horrifying.

Referring again to those who have par­ticipated in this low means of torture, the memory of the course will still be vivid. The starting line consists of a hoard of enthusiastic first formers, dubious sec­ond and third formers, completely re­luctant fourth formers and maybe a fifth former who didn't lose his way to the start which is down by the Richmond bike track.

The gun goes off and after what feels like a million miles, which in reality is probably only about two miles, at any rate a track just near Hawthorn Bridge and going across a disused tip, is sighted.

It is here the frustration overpowers ex­haustion, because the runners (?) are

continually tripping over logs that turn out to be other runners who have done the same thing. This dirt track finishes under Hawthorn Bridge and if you managed to get this far you would have had to attempt the painful climb up to Bridge Road (the stone steps are hard on the knees). Next comes the perilous and tiring part of the race. A steep hill is encountered, and, as circumnavigating it is impractical, ascent seems the only answer. This may not be so bad in itself, but the further you climb, the higher it gets. Eventually, when the summit is in sight, a certain teacher from the W o o d Work Department prevents you from blindly

dragging yourself across Church Street. It is this stopping that is the cause of a good percentage of the runners walking the remaining distance. W h e n "Little Mt. Everest" is finally conquered an equally painful descent follows. The next horror stretch, is that long crawl up to the finishing line, with those funny characters w h o wormed their way out of running, lining the route and throwing all sorts of insulting remarks. And so ends a delightful day's sport, that only proves how unfit w e are, and makes the holidays, that begin the following day, completely useless. Really, I think full credit, or is it blame, should go to Mr. Dalziel and the other organizers for being so kind in con­tinuing the running of this tradition.

FOOTBALL REPORT 1965 The school football team had quite a successful season, losing only three of the ten games, two of them by very small margins. W e were possibly unlucky not to have done much better, as the eventual winners of the Tech. Schools finals, Preston, only beat us by a point in a pre-season practice match. Although Box Hill defeated us quite comfortably in the first match, the eventual section winners did not have everything their own way in the return game, in which we were beaten by only 7 points in a very close, hard-fought match. It was this match which possibly cost us our chances of playing off with Box Hill to decide the sectional winners. The games with traditional rivals Syndal, proved to be very exciting, when in the first match we came from behind to snatch victory, and in the second we lead all the way to win by the same margin, 15 points. These wins were prestige victories for Swinburne. Our leading goal-kickers were full-forward Philip Walker with 25 goals, closely followed by John Cook with 21. The best player award was won by Steve Calder who rucked tirelessly week after week, and gave very valuable service while resting in the forward pocket. Our sincere thanks go to Mr. Wright who did an outstanding job in coaching us through out the season, and for getting us so near to the top of our section.

BASKETBALL This year's basketball team has been the best over the past few years. In the winter competition, Swinburne finished a very good third. The highlight of the season was a 15 point victory over the top team Jordanville. W e were even more successful in the summer competition in which we came runners-up to South Melbourne in the grand final. It was a proud occasion and we were only defeated by the small margin of 7 points. Thanks go to Mr. Couche for his ex­cellent coaching, and to the help given by Mr. Baltrunas.

Frank Salter, 4B

CRICKET This years cricket team did a good job in winning two out of the four matches played so far and narrowly losing one other. W e had very few experienced players as a nucleus of a team and this was against us in some matches, but we all tried our best and in some cases this was good enough to carry us to victory. During the season we had some con­sistent players namely; Stewart Somer­ville, Greg Cummins, and Kev Fulton with the bat, and Greg Cummins and Stewart Somerville with the ball. The best performance of the season so far, was Greg Cummins 5-32 against Syndal which included a well deserved hat-trick. On behalf of the team I would like to thank Mr. Pewtress for the effort he put into coaching us, and the helpful guidance he gave us on the field.

VOLLEY BALL The game has reached its second year of existence at Swinburne, and has re­tained the interest of the participants. At the end of the summer season the team was defeated by a small margin at Syndal. Although disappointed by the defeat, the team is improving and is aiming to defeat Syndal and win the trophy. All this would not be possible but for the hard work done by Mr. Baltrunas, and by Mr. Dalzeil's organization.

SOCCER REPORT 1965 This year's soccer team had quite a successful run, and were quite unlucky not to win their section as only one game stopped us from being premiers. W e started off well by winning our first set of matches convincingly. W e suffered a humilating defeat from Blackburn 3-0; and this not only knocked us off the top perch, but we also lost a certain amount of morale as our standard of play de­teriorated. It cannot be said that our forwards were goal-shy, as on three occasions, we reached double figures in goals. In our ten games we won six, drew three and lost one, scoring 57, and conceding 12. Every player did his best and it cannot be said that any player was not worthy of selection, but there were a few who really stood out: they include Z. Dobrzynski, N. Krapis, D. Hall and T. Sallows. Finally credit must be given to our in­spiring coach, Mr. Baltrunas for his advice and help, and everyone hopes he will have a premiership side next year.

SWIMMING REPORT 1965 Swimming at Swinburne is usually a successful sport and this year was no exception. After the house swimming which was won by "Collins", Mr. Pewtress trained the swimming team at the baths in preparation for the Inter-Technical Swimming Sports held at the Olympic Pool. At the sports Swinburne was a great competitor but unfortunately could only manage second place to Preston. However our activities at the All Tech­nical Sports were commendable due to a comfortable win by the Boys' Open Freestyle Relay team, consisting of V. Morgan, F. Diconi, M. Tadic, S. Vash. Other competitive swimmers were M. D'Alterio, G. Crotly, G. Lean, J. Prietopa. Finally I would like to thank Messrs. Dalziel, Pewtress, Couche and Miss Press for their wonderful support.

ATHLETICS

W e t weather prevented us from holding

our house athletic sports at the usual

time this year, and consequently they

were not held until a week before the

Inter-Technical School Sports, which were held on the 24th September. In the

few remaining days before the sports,

most of the squad trained before school

and some at lunchtime also. After being promoted to " A " section, and

winning it last year, our performance this

year was rather disappointing. W e only

won five events and obtained 27 minor places. W e finished in sixth place and

final scores were: Tottenham 297,

Brighton 228, Essendon 217, Dandenong 160, Moorabbin 147, Swinburne 130, Frankston 126 and Noble Park 85.

Outstanding individual performers were Frank Diconi, who won three events, Ray

Somerville and C. Haralumbus winning one event each.

Much credit and thanks are due to the persistence of Messrs. Couche, Dalziel, Baltrunas, Pewtress and Schiller, who

gave up much of their time coaching the team.

TENNIS The Tennis Team had some very enjoy­able games throughout the year, although we won only four out of the ten matches that were played. This result was due to the team not being able to practice together before the inter-school matches.

W e very badly need tennis courts of our own before we can hope to compete successfully in this fine sport.

BASEBALL The Baseball Team was not as success­ful as last year due to inexperienced players. The best players were Stuart Somerville (Capt.), Greg Cummings and Peter Gielen. 8. /. to r. P. Browne, G. Prout, N. Vincuroff, G. Cummings, L. Attril,

HOUSE REPORTS BLACKMORE PRIDMORE

House Mistresses: Mrs. Coombs, Miss Hall, Miss Wemyss, Mrs. Coombes. Vice Captains: Helen Evdora.

Blackmore began the year well by winning the house swimming sports. This was due to the determination of the com­petitors and the "vocal" enthusiasm of the supporters. I would like to thank all the Blackmore girls for gaining points for our house, which has enabled it to remain in second position and occasionally first position. I would also like to thank the girls who

trained for the house athletic sports and gave up so much of their time, but their efforts were in vain, as the sports had to be cancelled due to inclement weather.

Finally I would like to thank the staff in charge of our house for their support, and also the three other houses for giving us such good opposition throughout the vear- Cheryl Wilson

House Captain

SWINBURNE

House Mistresses Mrs. Walker, Mrs. Wellington. Although our girls came second in the swimming sports, their enthusiasm has enabled them to remain on top of the House points and I hope they will con­tinue the good work. W e were very sorry to lose our House Captain Myrtle Piatt who left at the end of second term. Many thanks to our House Mistresses for their assistance. My best wishes to Swinburne next year.

Suzanne Humphris

House Mistresses: Miss Hudsepth, Miss Webb, Mrs. Maguire, Miss Davidson. Vice Captains: Rosemary Simpson, Wendy Humphris. Pridmore began the year with enthusiasm having won the house shield last year. The competition between houses has been keen both at the swimming sports and in the gaining of points. Bad weather at the end of second term prevented the athletic sports taking place. At present we are in third position. Congratulations to the girls who have gained points, and our thanks to the mistresses who have helped us with enthusiasm and encouragement. Best of luck next year, Pridmore.

Jenny Heaney House Captain

McPHERSON

House Mistresses: Miss Quigley, Mrs. Penrose, Mrs. Brown. Vice Captain: Helen Redfern. This year just wasn't McPherson's year. Although we competed enthusiastically in the swimming sports we weren't quite good enough to win. I would like to thank all the girls who tried so hard and con­gratulations to Blackmore for winning the swimming sports. I would like to thank all the House Mistresses for their help, the girls for trying so hard and I wish McPherson "the best of luck" for the coming years.

HOUSE REPORTS HENTY

Although Henty is the best house in the school, it hasn't done so well in inter-house competition this year. This is not because of insufficient house spirit but because the spirit has been taken else­where, it seems, on Wednesday after­noons. In the house football competition, Henty made a successful bid for the coveted "Wooden Spoon" and followed this up by coming fourth in the swimming sports. This did not help in building up the morale of the athletic team, who ran a brilliant, but unlucky, third in the athletic sports. But seriously, on behalf of the house, I would like to thank our house master, Mr. Trotter and our sports master, Mr. Dalziel for all the work they have done in helping the house finish a moderately successful year. C. Papadakis

House Captain

BATMAN

Batman has been rather more successful this year. W e came a close second to Collins in the swimming sports and due mainly to the efforts of the captain, Max Dawson the football team won the com­petition quite well. The volleyball team was also successful as was the athletics team which won for the first time in many years. The house has worked more as a team this year than in previous years and the house spirit has been better which is probably one reason for our increased success. I would like to thank Mr. McFarlane, the House-master,for his help and guidance throughout the year and boys, spectators and competitors alike, for their help and participation.

L. Finlay House Captain

COLLINS

This year has been a very successful year for Collins House. W e started the year off well by winning the swimming sports for the fourth time in succession. The winter sport, football, also saw us right in there, we came runners up. In the athletic sports we came second to Batman who beat us by one point. Our best efforts were: winning a cross country run; the field events in which we came a close second to Henty; and wins in track events. With all these points tallied up, we show a two to one chance of holding the cup for the third year in a

row. To Collins I can say that Mr. Pew­tress had to push and shove the boys to get any show in the inter-house activities of this year, but there is an improvement on the last couple of years. For this year's effort my thanks go to Mr. Pewtress for his time and effort and to all the boys who participated in the house competition activities of this

year- Hans Folk House Captain

FLINDERS

This year has been a rather disappoint­ing year for Flinders. The cricket team has had a fairly good year, and the football team finished an unlucky third in the lightning premiership. In the swimming sports we finished third which wasn't too bad. The athletics was a very poor effort. There was definitely no lack of ability in the House but rather a lack of enthusiasm. Many thanks go to the other houses for their excellent com­petition, and on behalf of Flinders I would like to thank Mr. Wright and Mr. Sutherland for their assistance in the organization of House teams.

IB W e are in 1B (B stands for best). W e are always buzzing bees whenever there's a test. Now to tell you about the girls who are in "1B".

Robyn loves boys, Carol makes a noise, Kristine is a swimmer, Jean is a trimmer, Carmel is so funny, Sally loves money, Diane is so tall and Margaret is so small. Diane is very pretty and Cheryl is very witty. Gail loves to cook. Kay likes to read a book, Sally likes to knit, Leslie is always fit. Janice cracks jokes, Anna likes blokes, When Susan thinks, It's probably of horses. Margaret always talks, And Lynne always squawks, Pam likes to drink tea, And this is my version of 1B.

D. J. McLeod

If you can put up with 2A all the way, You will be crazy at the end of the day, They're full of mischief and full of fails, They nearly make you jump off your rails, They don't like Maths, they don't like work,

They nearly make the teachers shirk!

1C In our form there's 21 And we do have lots of fun (sometimes) Most of us work and some of us play; But the others just sit around all day. Our form teacher is very nice. I think she's made of sugar and spice. But when we play up and look at boys. She gets very cross and makes a noise.

N. Cougle

2B 2B is the best Head and shoulders over the rest, Sometimes good, Sometimes bad, But always brilliant. (So we say).

2C We are the terrors from 2C There is Neddy, Diane and me W e talk all day and we make a noise W e are worse than most other boys.

We are the terrors from 2C There is Beverly and Maree, One of the teachers nearly died, W e think she committed suicide.

We are the terrors from 2C Maria and Vicky and Lesley The classrooms are all in a mess Whose been in there?—I'll give you a guess.

We are the terrors from 2C Christine, Lynette and Zoe All we think about is our hair Maths and Science we couldn't care.

We are the terrors from 2C Ann and Vicki and Cherie W e aren't glad when the day is done Because we have had so much fun.

2D This is all about form 2D, The best second form as you can see, It's the best at work, It's the best at play, It's the best form anywhere, anyday.

Have you heard what 2D did, It made one teacher flip her lid, It made one teacher bite a dog, It made another crawl into a log, They screamed and shrieked, till the floor boards creaked, They played and sang, till the school bell rang,

This is a warning to teachers and prefects too, You'd better watch out, they might try it on you.

Did you enjoy this poem about 2D? They'll do more cheeky things, Just wait and see.

3AP 3AP is a shocking form. Some teachers say we should reform. The conversation's never right. Though some pupils are extremely bright, W e never have our proper books Our only problem is our looks.

3AG Right now in our classroom the strangest thing is going on. Some workmen are painting the room next door and need to come into our class.They've brought in a long ladder and put it up into the manhole. He had to push the trapdoor open. After getting it open a whole lot of plaster and dust, dirt and goodness knows what came down right onto two girls. What a sight! All the girls in the form laughed to see these two girls working away peace­fully and all of a sudden plaster and cement on their faces and on their books. W e took so much interest in their situa­tion that Miss Farrell made us write this composition. Oh, by the way, the two girls are both safe.

3C This is a story of a form Which no-one else could reform Then Mrs. Penrose came on the scene And was very hard and mean. She tried to make us good, Her thoughts were never understood. But after much hard work W e found that we could not shirk. In the end Mrs. Penrose won And now we all have lots of fun.

P. Flagg J. Groth

3D Because we are all clever We're the best form ever. W e always have our P.E. junk But if we haven't we are sunk. We're good at art as we make a mess, Our teachers say we do that best. And when they give us all those sums You must admit we are not dumb. But if we want to be relaxed It is only trouble that we catch. And when we hear the hometime bell You just watch us run like " " . . .

About every 15 minutes a train goes past and makes a lot of noise and vibrates all round. A group of boys from the boys school have just come out to play Volleyball and a girl in my form, Vivienne, has just come out to talk to me. A train whistle just tooted. Vivienne, has blackish, brownish, redish coloured hair and it's rather short but it suits her.

5 MEN

They hail you as their morning star, Because you are the way you are, If you return the sentiment They will try to make you differeni, And once they have you, safe and sound, They want to change you all round, Your moods and ways they put a curse on;

They'd make of you another person, They cannot let you go your gait; They influence and educate, They'd alter all they admired, They make me sick, they make me tired.

"There's boys out there!! "

"Did he really!!"

You'd never guess they had varicose veins.

STAFF NOTES -1965 Throughout a year of sun, wind and rain, Teachers coming and going Never the same. W e moved our staff room The roof—you know! Off with the old and on with the .. . , Not more tin!!! It was a cold winter. Excursions, sport meets, and history too, Plus English, Science, Mathematics— Phew! And we the poor teachers, Underpaid, Dedicated, fed-up, Conscientious, frustrated, Depressed, cheerful, But we still braved the children. One must have courage to cross the yard, Softballs, basketballs,volleyballs, Falling down, About our heads, like rain. Harder yet correcting those tests Taken each month; we do our best Not to complain. Always before us Throughout each term, The sea of faces, Our constant children, Eager, lazy, brilliant, hazy, Waiting to leave, never wishing to Someone always absent Because of the flu! Will it never end? And yet one must not bend; Well, not too far. And now December has arrived at last, Holding her promise Of six weeks vast, unending vacation Away from it all. The problems of education will surely Grow smaller and smaller Until they fade And are replaced by a suntan, Just the right shade to be healthy. Wherever we go for this well earned rest, W e will certainly try and do our best, To ignore the question We've asked ourselves again and again "ARE W E REALLY GETTING THROUGH TO THEM?" The pattern of large changes in staff was well in evidence this year. The school welcomed many new members of

R. Bowler, 5D

staff in Mr. C. E. Bawden (Headmaster), Mr. H. S. Oakley (Senior Assistant), and other new members. Messrs. Duncan, Lawson, Pekin, Piper, Schaffer, Schiller, Walsh, Cuomo, Adims, Miss Press, Miss Moreley, and Mrs. Wilson. Mr. L. Iversen appears to like school so much that he has returned to assist. W e say "Bon voyage" to Mr. Walsh at the end of second term when he sails for overseas. Mr. H a m and Mrs. Enshaw have joined us to cope with Mr. Walsh's work. Our casualties at the end of the year are most serious. W e lose on promotion Mr. K. Wright, the Head of the Humanities Department to Shepparton, Mr. F. Hall, Head of the Art Department and football critic to Preston, Messrs. Sutherland and McFarlane go on promotion to Preston East and Collingwood respectively. Mr. Dalziel of the Turning and Fitting De­partment has earned his promotion at Swinburne. W e congratulate all these teachers and wish them well in their new positions. Mr. Williams is transferring to Malvern. Our good wishes go with him also.

IB Our Maths teacher is inspired by our efforts. Hope we don't let him down. Paton they all like him, teachers and birds, surprises us. Brown used to think leather was for shoes, knows otherwise now. Takes all kinds to make a form, we have E. Duda and King.

1C Some of us are not always perfect, but we do have Jim R an artist in the making, and David L who will one day build us a first class dog house. A pity the rest of us haven't special talents.

ID Solid Geometry is our speciality, al­though Alfred G shows promise of becoming a future home-builder and Paul H may make his mark as a cartoonist one day.

IE Ken Williams is already a spray painter. MacAlister and Thies have a grudge, exams are hard enough without marks being taken off for having full stops up-side down. By the way we can boast of having the biggest boys of the form.

1F Goader seems to be stretching upwards. Skerry has never seen the top of Goader's head. Bullick is round about when there's something on. Gowder and McKenzie are well known in our form, but for different reasons.

2A Most teachers who have us, believe we are the prize bunch of form 2. W e are not sure what they really think. Bruce does own long trousers, he wore them on Education day. It was the first time we've seen them blue. B. Van-Every and G. Casey have set the standard by winning ..

2B What the teachers think of 2B W h o cares more, but There are boys in our class, Stansbury W h o come to school from far off parts. W e are a good bunch of guys. Especially Colin who always tries, Just the opposite is our John, W h o tries to do everything wrong, Most teachers are pretty good, If you behave the way you should. Mrs. O'Grady would have us sing, But the noise we make is a terrible thing. Poor Kent Harris is a rough nut, All the same he has a hair cut.

2C W e have experienced experts in most fields, we even have one or two like Polyak and Caslake who are even good at exams. W e have King-Kelly gang; Zotti and Carrol, experts of the ring, and well known characters we prefer not to mention.

2D It's a difficult job to tell about us, as we are such a wierd mob, with monkey noises from Con'tinou, loud noises from Shorty Dean, and endless chatter from Foster. W e do have a couple of quiet triers. One of our group has grown a tail—he's always "wagging" it.

2E W e are mostly new boys this year and haven't been around long and John Duncan is seen less than most of us. Kevin Doyle is about to become the fifth Beatle. It's a pity H is not funny with his acting. W e hope Nelson learns 'work but too much play do not mix'.

3A W e have one or two characters worth talking about and this is something we do very well. Bill Thomas keeps us happy with his variety of jokes, and Max Flinker who even surpasses Bill Thomas by getting a grin out of Mr. Pewtress. David Morely is learning from Mr. Toogood, or is he doing the teaching? Darryl Turner now of the science Department, can put anything in a test tube and coagulate it.

3B We've had our share of broken bones, stitches and ills, so John Slingo is in his element with the sick jokes. In David Crabtree we have a leprechaun who's piping comes through loud and clear. W e are proud of Stuart Somerville—school cricket captain; he'd have trouble making a scholar's eleven.

3C We often wonder what Burrows has to sing about, although Doidge and Pappas do enjoy clowning together. W e must be happy at our work after all.

3D While it is true that some boys in other classes get slightly higher marks than we do, this slight deficiency is compen­sated for by our subtle charm and manly bearing. Prominent boys are Julian Darcy (cricket) Robert Grey (basket­ball) Peter Van Devren (soccer) Pat O'Tool (the lampost), Trevor Davison (spear fishing) Russell Howard (the basin). As our form master says, al­though not brilliant we're a happy band of triers.

3E We wonder if John H. will be early for his wedding, any way he can rely on Greg C. making a speech. W e would also loan him our mascot A. Taylor as a train bearer.

3F We have some boys in our class who try to be good. Phil Unmack can't under­stand this. Les Williams only just gets places, while David Marsland keeps his head in a book. Fred Fullerton has his sights elsewhere and we expect Ray Williams to star at sport one day.

3H OUR CLASS

On looking round our class-room today, I saw how thoughts could often stray, From what the teacher has to say, To our class.

Now Peter sits and chews his pen, And Kostas yawns and wonders when He will get out to tackle the men Of our class.

Stephen watches the birds fly by, And John frowns and wonders why, X plus X must equal Y. In our class.

Clifton sighs and taps his foot, Whilst Neil thinks he'll eat a sweet; And poor Ross's nearly fast asleep, In our class.

Malcolm remains as good as gold— The teacher's eyes turn rather cold, I think he is about to scold Our class.

But now we're all saved by the bell, W e pack our books and fly pell-mell, Out to the playground for a spell— That's our class

4A The modest form, whose only contribu­tion is not themselves. But—"A teacher is that which changes or tends to change a students state of mind or uniform sanity in a short time"—no doubt a studious bunch. (Editor).

4B Bram Vanderjagt—Topped the form at half year and hasn't been seen since. Kevin Harrison—Reveals ancient jokes to the modern world. Continually chased for jokes by F. Salter. Frank Salter—Pedals Harrison's jokes and wins fame for them. Vic Miller—Hopes to Intermediate on a casual part-time basis. John Constantinou—Our politician or enemy infiltrator. Joe Di Paolo—Joe Nose everything. Ray English—All talk is centred on his sister's boyfriend's Holden.

Page 45: PUB: 8 Item 3(36) · Oxford Dictionary", where I see that "pot-pourri" has several meanings. It may be a stew, a hotch-potch, which is what our accommodation used to be, much more

4C Fred—Sam. from Vienna is good with the saw, we don't know about waltzing. R. Newton—Rocker Bob—is a disappoint­ment. Geoff Neubecker—Funny man with the original jokes. Arthur "Stav"—Knows every trick to get off early, including setting clocks forward. Terry Gold-s-worthy of his position as prefect. That red-haired leader is popular at both schools.

4D Malcolm Nichols is the only guitar playing "nose" in the world and we are proud of him. Jackson (Samuri) C h o w is noted for avoiding "the men in blue" in his racing "-auto.

4E This is one of the luckiest forms in the school, because we have our own M.S.P. quartet conducted by "Vine Nose Dominic Beethoven Deprepertis."

4F We have many talents and potential talents:— Steve M.—strong man, works on glass. Frank M.—after his education (?) is finished he intends to box. Steve B. and Gordon C—farmer's t w o -hair farmers. Les. W . (The Fringe) may join them. Phil. W., Barry W . and Geoff. B., who runs around chess boards as training for the 50 yard dash, are our sports. Peter M. is going to start his own bank.

5A Allan A. seen having his head in a cloud whilst recessing on a Tuesday morning. Peter F., smallest of our group, seems to be getting stepped on, the solution, built up shoes? Certain party received licence a while ago—how did he do it? He couldn't drive nails.

5B 5B this year received some new boys but the majority had known each other from previous years and all said they

have been a great "bunch o' guys". Stephen V. has knighted himself the class clown, (we all have been at times). His inimitable mimicing has made the place sound like a farmhouse. John V. is leaving to see the world (but all he'll see is the sea). Gary G. and Basil S. have had a wild time this year tearing cars to pieces, while David M. has at last received his licence and is rolling round Melbourne with his aunt's dil­apidated Renault.

Page 46: PUB: 8 Item 3(36) · Oxford Dictionary", where I see that "pot-pourri" has several meanings. It may be a stew, a hotch-potch, which is what our accommodation used to be, much more

5C Russel K. and John M — suffering from terrible gravel rashes obtained by con­tinuous crawling. Bernard H.—his portrait is often seen on wanted posters. Neil B — has perfect reflexes. Jumps at the slightest? Geoff D.—would like to meet any second form girl who he has not taken out yet. John L—the early bird always catches the worm. Max P.—has spent many sleepless nights because his rollers were annoying him.

5D Lindsay (Placid?) Attril—Guess who his best friend is. Ray (Scotty) Bowler—hats off to him. Ron (Scone) Brooks—the artistic per­fectionist. Michael Cabot—humble author. Bob (Reckless) Cacalis—never stops talking. Ross (Innocent?) Carr—society is for them that overcome it. Andrew Leckie—let's keep the school colours flying. Graham Mason—let's burn up the road a ways.

David owen (Prof.)—knowledge is for them that know it. John (Rocker) Polglase—a guitar is a mans best friend. Micaelo (Mick) Tadic—the beauty and the feast.

5E Form 5E one of the smallest forms in the school, is the United Nations of 5th form, with a wide variety of nationalities comprising, Italians, Poles, Cypriots, Greeks, Scots and Australians. One of our Italian members is endeavour­ing to spread the influence of his newly developed religion, "Sidotism" through­out Australia, and is having some success. The class fool, G. King, "Wooduck", is well known by the staff and the rest of the class, for his witty remarks and practical jokes, during class. One of our Greek members is extremely interested in fishing and claims he has caught an eight pound sardine during the last vacation, but this is just another one of his "fish" stories. The form 5 as a whole has had a very successful year thanks to the persever­ance of our teachers.

7 didn't know you cared."

SOCIAL SERVICE

BOYS' Once again, Mr. Nichols, our Social Service teacher, has stirred the boys into really digging deep into their pockets and contributing generously. This year, the Social Service committee, with the aid of Mr. Nichols, has decided upon the complete purchase and training of a seeing-eye dog, at a cost of approx­imately £200. The money will come from both the boys' and girls' school and also from the Senior School. During the past year, donations have been made to the following:— Tally-ho Boys' Village £10 0 0 St. John's H o m e for Boys 5 0 0 Spastic Children, Malvern 5 0 0 Egg Appeal 5 0 0 Wattle Day 5 0 0 Brotherhood of St. Lawrence 5 0 0 Children's Cottages, Kew 5 0 0 St. Paul's School for Blind Babies 5 0 0 Vic. Society for Crippled Children and Adults 30 0 0 3DB Children's Hospital Appeal 50 0 0 R.S.L. Anzac Appeal 13 0 0

T O T A L £138 0 0

Our thanks to Mr. Nichols for the help he has given to this work.

N. Eliades, 3A

GIRLS' This year the Girls' School hopes to raise £90, of which the greater part will be forwarded to the Seeing Eye Dog Appeal. The Swinburne Senior School, Boys' School, and Girls' School are combining to finance a Seeing Eye Dog. Our most novel effort has been the Staff versus Prefects basketball match in second term. This raised over £10. Other money has been received from weekly contributions, lost property, penalties, and other money-raising activities.
