THE LUCERNIAN

EDITORIAL This year, as is typical of every other year, many of our girls will be finishing their schooling and will leave Morongo. So much is done for us at school, not only in the teaching of academic subjects but in training us to become good members of our community and to be prepared to accept its responsibilities. At school, a friend might have sought our help in a mathematical problem or sought our advice about some personal matter. So it is when we leave school and become Old Collegians. Those who come after us turn to us for help. Perhaps this is the first of our adult responsibitities and it is a pleasant one. In the past two years, we have seen the building of our assembly hall, The Gertrude Pratt Hall, the classrooms in the school block and the new Dining Hall. These buildings are modern and beautiful in design. They represent the devotion and hard work of the Old Collegians and the thought of the School

Council ; just as we owe the transformation of the Library to the generosity of the parents of two past students. All these things make it easy for those of us who will soon be new "Old Collegians" to work to continue this work for our school and to contribute our share. It is a case of "success breeds success," but we do not forget the earlier " Old Collegians " who struggled to give us the first of these new additions to the school. Morongo will always consist of two main bodies, the present day students and the Old Collegians, who continue to lead the way for us to follow. That is why I wish to make this editorial one of thanks to all who have given us so much. Those of us who are leaving hope to show this in a practical way when we too are Old Collegians. Nea Stewart.

THE LUCERNIAN

COUNCIL NOTES Miss Pillow Morongo suffered a great loss in the death of Miss Daisy Pillow in January. The School Council recorded in the minutes of its February meeting the great debt owed to Miss Pillow for the twenty-two years of outstanding service as Matron, and it was agreed that the rose garden adjacent to the Gertrude Pratt Hall be named the " Miss Daisy Pillow Memorial Garden " in her honour. Applications The greatest problem facing the Principal and the Council is that of dealing with the applications for places at the School — particularly boarding places. The number of applications in hand exceed the possible boarding vacancies for several years, and there are requests for places as far ahead as 1974. As the order in which applications are received must be a major factor in deciding on admissions, it is clear that parents should lose no time in registering their desire to send their daughters to Morongo. Buildings One of the ways in which the Council is trying to meet the problem of applications is to make more room available to accommodate boarders (although it is not intended to increase the size of the School substantially). To this end, a new (lining hall and kitchen block has been erected this year. Not only will this accommodate more pupils for meals, but it will also free the present dining hall

and kitchen for conversion to dormitories. This does little more than scratch the surface of the problem, however, and the Council feels that the whole question of boarding accommodation is one which the Presbyterian Church of Victoria will have to consider. Finance It would be impossible for the Council to finance the building extensions without the continued support of the parents, former pupils and friends of the School. Bequests totalling almost £3,500 were received during the year from the Estates of E. B. and S. J. Venters (deceased), and several generous donations were received from parents. The Old Collegians' Association handed over to the Council securities worth more than £2,000, representing the balance of the Gertrude Pratt Hall Fund. Membership The resignation of the Rev. M. J. L. Griffiths from the Council, owing to a transfer to a metropolitan parish, was received with great regret. Mr. Griffiths served the School very ably as a representative of the Presbyterian Church's Board of Education on the Council. That Board has since appointed Mr. Neil Pettitt to fill the vacancy. Mr. Pettitt is a member of a family with a long association with Morongo, and his record of cofnmunity service ensures that his contribution to the work of the Council will be very valuable. D.G.

PARENTS' AND FRIENDS' ASSOCIATION During the past twelve months the same policy of fewer meetings has been adhered to as in the previous year, and members continue to take a keen interest in the activities of the Association. The Garden Party Fete, held early in the year in conjunction with the Old Collegians and Junior Auxiliary, was again

successful, when the amount of £704 \V S the nett result, thus eclipsing last year's figures. We are indebted to our organisers, Messrs. H. B. Downey, A. C. Lucas, N. H. Pettitt, L. W. Sprague, F. Timms, and Dr. D. S. Taylor, for the time, energy and enthusiasm they have given to make the day so pleasant, and

THE LUCERNIAN

to our Treasurer, Mr. Cowperthwaite, who is a tower of strength on the financial side. Plans are under way already for next year's Garden Party, and we hope to introduce a more festive and gay note to the proceedings. It has long been Miss Shaw's wish to make the Garden Party a really social occasion, and one way we plan to achieve this is by the addition of six hosts, whose function it is to see that country and city folk become acquainted. There are several other new ideas in hand, which at this stage cannot be published, as arrangements have not as yet been completed. They should all contribute to make " the day " a combined social and financial success. After consultation with Miss Shaw as to the suitability of a gift to the School from garden party proceeds, it was decided not to spend the money, as Miss Shaw has some long-range plan in mind, and to hold finances in reserve until she has indicated what is most needed. The Annual Meeting was conducted in the usual manner, and there was no change in the office-bearers, all agreeing to hold office for a further twelve months. In his address, our President, Mr. H. R. Fidge, reported a year of successful activity, following on the tradition of previous years, and stressed the co-operation existing between the Morongo staff and Parents' and Friends' Association. He said a keen interest was taken by our auxiliaries in the School and its welfare, and the willingness to further the aims of Miss Shaw and her

staff would be our main object at all times. The meeting concluded with excerpts from plays presented earlier in the year by the girls, followed by supper. The Committee has for some time been desirous of recruiting parents of younger girls just entering Senior School and of girls in the Junior School, as we need the interest and enthusiasm of these younger parents to carry on the good work of the Association. To that end, a circular letter is to be sent out in the near future, extending a cordial welcome to attend our night meetings and participate in the various activities. On the social side, members of the staff were entertained at an evening at Kirrewur Court. This is an occasion when parents and teachers have a chance to meet in an atmosphere devoid of blackboard and chalk. To round off the year a Christmas function will be held at the Pix Theatre, when a film entitled " The Story of Three Loves," will be screened, followed by supper in the foyer of the Theatre. We take this opportunity to thank Miss Shaw and members of her staff for the co-operation and interest they give to our Association. To our life members and parents who are unable to attend the meetings, and, particularly, to parents living a long distance from Geelong, we extend our good wishes and the hope that more parents will be able to attend the various functions and meetings arranged for the next year. Maidee Penman, Hon. Sec.

SCHOOL NOTES The first Assembly for this year was held on Wednesday, February 10th. New members of staff welcomed were Miss Oldham, Miss Brown, Miss Knapp, Mrs. Waldron, Miss McGain, and we welcomed back Miss Thomson. During the year we have had several trainee P.T. teachers from New South Wales, and at the beginning of third

term we welcomed Miss Ferguson, our permanent P.T. teacher from Scotland. Exciting additions to school buildings have been made in the last two years. Last year the new Gertrude Pratt Hall was opened, and its worth is being fully appreciated. This year a fine new dining hall is being erected near the hall. This has been needed for a long time, and will ease the work of the kitchen staff.

THE LUCERNIAN The old dining hall will be converted into sleeping accommodation for boarders. Our thanks for these fine improvements are due to the Council, who are always thoughtful for our welfare. Their generous gifts are much appreciated. Pauline Seitz.

JUNIOR SCHOOL NOTES This has been a very happy year in the Junior School. The children have been so friendly and co-operative that work has been very pleasant. Childlike, they have expressed that staff members have not a care in the world, and that they are burdened with work. However, they have been so enthusiastic that they have allowed staff members little time for relaxation. Work has been more interesting than usual, because this is the first time that Form IIIC has been combined with the Junior School for the main part of the curriculum. The development of the girls in the top form has been a novel and pleasant experience. They, and we, have appreciated the assistance and co-operation of the Music and Sports Mistresses. The girls have enjoyed their lessons. One tender-hearted lover of birds, who objected, in secret, to the disposal of birds which were killed by flying into the large glass windows, has formed the habit of burying them in some quiet spot in the grounds. On the last occasion she appealed to a workman to make a wooden cross, and was seen disappearing through the trees with a posy of flowers from the garden. As usual, we owe a debt of gratitude to our very generous Junior Auxiliary. The mothers are most helpful, and seem to enjoy thinking up ways of being cooperative both as a body, and as individuals. We thank them all.

CHURCH NOTES The Morongo boarders have attended services at St. David's Presbyterian Church throughout the year. The Anglican members of the School have attended All Saints' Church. We took part in the service held on Palm Sunday and sang a section from " The Story of the Cross." On April 15th, the School was shown an excellent film on the Scottish bid for free religion, " Fire on the Heather," which Mr. MacLean showed to us. Due to bad weather, we were unable to take part in the Youth March to be held on May 1st, celebrating Commonwealth Youth Sunday, but we concluded the afternoon at a service held in the Gheringhap St. Congregational Church. The sermon was given by the Rev. J. Bodeycomb. On Sunday, July 31st, after many confirmation classes, conducted by the Rev. McLean, a special Confirmation Service was held, and the following girls were

admitted into full membership of the Presbyterian Church : L. A tkinson-Grimshaw, J. Campbell, J. Dale, M. Fagg, J. Fletcher, A. Forbes, P. Gilmore, A. Horne, W. Howell, I. King, M. Lewis, M. Mann, A. McIntosh, E. McNair, R. Paterson, E. Read, H. Robinson, D. Ross, D. Street, J. Weidemann, J. Wills and J. Wood. On October 23rd at All Saints', R. Dorman, H. Mansfield, R. Sears, M.

Weeks, of Wesley Methodist Church, who gave a very interesting sermon on " What Shall I Do With My Life ? " The prefects took up the offering and the lessons were read by Pauline Seitz and Leonie Haines. The School Choir sang the anthem, " Grant Us Light." Lesley Atkinson-Grimshaw.

HOUSE NOTES ARDENS " Seek Wisdom." I feel that our successes this year have been the result of great enthusiasm shown by the members of Ardens House. However, there still remains a handful who continually hinder our progress in the classrooms. During first term, after much determined training, the swimming and athletic sports were successfully conducted. Lawson are to be congratulated for winnings the Ena Miller Shield for swimming, and also the various champions, including our own—Nancy Gray, senior champion, and Dorothy Green, runnerup. Due to great team effort, we narrowly won the Margaret Shannon Memorial Cup for athletics. We extend our congratulations to the champions, including Angela Beach, from Ardens.

The inter-house basketball and hockey matches played in the winter term aroused some keen interest, and we congratulate Harris for their success in the hockey. Ardens were victorious in. the basketball. As yet, the tennis and baseball matches have not been completed, but our junior tennis has been successful, so far. During second term it was decided that each house should supply food for the " Food for Peace " Shop. Most of the girls have responded generously to this appeal. Instead of being an individual competition, the collection of clothing- was conducted as a house competition. Such an array of things has not been seen for some time. Roslyn must be congratulated on their fine collection. On Sports Day our house was lacking a flag holster, and Mrs. Renfrev, noticing this, has kindly donated one to Ardens.

Last term a Voluntary Helpers' Shop was begun in Cfeelong, selling food. The proceeds are going to the refugees.

THE LUCERNIAN

SPORT I t is pleasing to note the higher standard in most of our sports this year, especially in the association matches, where the tennis team won the premiership for the first time, and the junior tennis, first hockey and junior hockey teams came very close seconds. During the first term the annual Swimming and Athletic Sports were held, and baseball and tennis matches played. The lower forms of the School provided displays on Fete Day; life-saving classes took place, and many girls received rewards. Second term saw some interesting tussles between the houses for the Basketball and Hockey Shields. Association basketball and hockey matches were also played. At present, inter-house baseball and tennis matches are being completed, and some of the junior forms are preparing displays for Hobbies Day. The tennis courts have been in full use, as tennis championships have begun. Junior and senior doubles championships have been re-introduced. The only new equipment is baseball gloves. To the Sports Staff of this year—Miss Ockleston, Miss Oldham, Miss Swan, Miss Maslin and Miss Ferguson—we express our sincere thanks for all they have done. With their guidance and help the standard of our sport has been raised. TENNIS REPORT The year 1960 has been a most successful one in tennis. The senior team gained their first premiership, and the juniors lost only one match for the season. I think this may be mainly due to the enthusiasm shown by team members and the consistent help given by Mr. Wood each Wednesday morning. We thank him very much. Only one social match was played against Geelong College, but, once again, Mr. Lester arranged a mixed tournament with boys from Geelong College

and Hermitage girls. All who took part had a most enjoyable day's tennis, and we congratulate Helen Dean and Ewan Hazeldine for being most successful. During the Christmas holidays . it was pleasing to see the increased number of our girls who took part in the Victorian Schoolgirls' Championships at Kooyong. During this final term inter-house matches and School championships are being played, and provoking a keen interest among the girls. It is pleasing to see so many full courts, which shows the increased enthusiasm for tennis at the School. The prospects of next year's tennis teams are very bright, indeed, with so many of our experienced players returning. To them I wish the best of luck for 1961. Janet Gawith. ATHLETIC REPORT On May 2nd the Annual Athletic Sports were held. For weeks before all girls were enthusiastically training for ball games and sprints. Once again we congratulate Ardens for their win, with 280 points ; followed by Roslyn, 274 points ; Harris, 206 points ; and Lawson, 188 points. The champions this year were : Helen Roberts, open champion ; Sandra Funston, intermediate champion ; Robyn Johnston, junior champion; and Heather McCowan, sub-junior champion. The high jump, a comparatively new event to the programme, was very keenly contested. The open winner was Helen Mathison, with a jump of 4f t. 4in., and the junior winner was Alison Hastie, who jumped 3ft. 8in. At the conclusion of the sports the cups and shields were presented to the champions by Councillor H. R. Fidge, Chairman of the Parents' and Friends' Association. Helen Roberts.

THE LUCERNIAN SWIMMING REPORT This year the Swimming Sports were held on the 29th February, a week after the heats. Congratulations go to Lawson, who won the Ena Miller Shield for the third time in succession, with 207 points. They were followed by Ardens, with 132 points, Harris, 85 points and Roslyn 52 points. Open Champion was Nancy Gray, Intermediate Champion Dianne Batten, and junior Champion was Margaret Gonsal. Our thanks go to Miss Ockleston, Miss Oldham and all the members of staff, who helped to run the sports so efficiently. On March 26th six girls competed in the Geelong and District Inter-School Competitions at Eastern Beach, and were successful in gaining many places. Lifesaving was again very popular in first term. Sixty-three girls passed examinations, and we thank Mr. Searle, of Geelong Grammar, who took the examinations. Nancy Gray.

BASKETBALL REPORT This year's senior basketball team met with mixed success. Out of the four Association matches played, we succeeded in winning one, but in . every match keen competition was given to the other schools. We were more successful in social matches played, against Sacred Heart Convent, Geelong High School and Geelong Teachers' College, as we won two out of the three matches. Our congratulations go to these girls, who were chosen in the team : (G.) Elizabeth Holyman (vice-capt.), (A.G.) Elizabeth McCann, (A.W.) Gillian Weeks (capt.), (C.) Diaga Vitins, (D.W.) Jennifer Dale, (D.G.) Margaret Hastie, (D.G.), Dianne Batten. Although the senior B and junior teams were not successful in winning many games, good team spirit was displayed and there was plenty of enthusiasm. The Inter-House basketball matches resulted in Ardens winning the Margaret Shannon Cup.

The team and I would like to thank Miss Ockleston for her help in coaching us. Gillian Weeks.

HOCKEY REPORT Once again the usual bruises and bumps have been weathered, and we have lived through a most successful season of hockey. The enthusiastic response of players to practices contributed to the success we had in the Association. The seniors were unfortunate to lose the last match and so take second place. The juniors also lost only one match, and came runners-up. Most of them show promising- signs for the future senior team. However, our success was mainly due to the enthusiastic coach we had in Mr. Michael Tan, of the Gordon Institute of Technology. Much of his spare time was spent here on Saturdays and weeknights, and we do appreciate all that he has done for us. Many social matches were played against Geelong High School, Geelong Teachers' College, Gordon Institute of Technology, and we thank them for the valuable practice and enjoyable games. During second term, house matches were contested, with Harris winning- the Ruth MacMillan Shield. Finally, I would like to thank Miss 1Vlasslen and Miss Swan for their help and to next year's teams, the best of luck for a good season's hockey. Janet Gawith.

BASEBALL REPORT This year, the .-\ssociaLion baseball.season was disappointing- as far as Morongo was concerned. All teams had the advantage of enthusiastic and capable coaches, in Miss Oldham, Miss Hill and Miss Ockleston. Mr. Davies, of Geelong College, also gave us much-appreciated advice. Therefore, it seems that the reason for the disappointment lies mainly with ourselves,

THE LUCERNIAN

Throughout the season, the efforts of our coaches were hampered by some girls who did not report regularly for practices. It is impossible to develop a strong combination with bits of the team at a time. However, on the credit side, some real talent was evident, and it was very pleasing to see many of these girls practising to improve their standard. The overall attitude of all teams showed a marked improvement, and displays of fine baseball were often seen, which gives promise of future successes. This season we have again suffered from the lack of a really fast pitcher, which, consequently, has handicapped our batting in many of the matches. The fielding, on the other hand, has improved greatly. The pitchers of the Junior and Senior teams show promise of real speed, and also an ability to vary their pitches, and, with continued practice, seem sure to overcome our greatest disadvantage. Social matches are always very enjoyable and helpful ; this year we have played College. House baseball matches will also be played this term. Organised training has already begun, and it is to be hoped that, with an extra term's work and development of our existing ability, a very good season lies ahead. Finally, a special vote of thanks goes to Miss Oldham, Miss Ockleston, Miss Hill, and Mr. Davies for their enthusiasm and encouragement, and every good wish for a very successful and happy season next year. Pauline Seitz.

SCHOOL ACTIVITIES FORUM REPORT, 1960 Forum meetings have been held every Monday during the lunch-hour. They were presided over by Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland, and were attended by prefects, house captains, vice-house captains and Forum representatives from each house. The purpose of the Forum meetings is to discuss general business concerning school affairs, such as social service, ground tidiness, arrangements for school functions, and conduct. After the general business, the debits were taken down by the house captains. Our sincere thanks go to Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland, who have done so much to make the School activities successful throughout the year. Margot Hallam.

During second term, we took part in Monday morning assemblies by playing the National Anthem, and again this year we provided incidental music for the School play.

ENSEMBLE GROUP At the beginning of the year it was disappointing to note the lack of interest in this part of the School's activities. During the year, our membership has decreased considerably, and our group now consists of four violin students— H. Gray, J. Hair, E. Rushbrooke, H. Venters—and the pianist.

MUSIC CLUB REPORT

This year we have studied and played works by Haydn, Handel and Charles Woodhouse, and Elaine Rushbrooke and Joan Hair studied a duet by Plevel, which they played at our performance. We have made considerable progress, and I would like to thank our few enthusiastic members for their constant co-operation, and also for all the time they have given up in practising. I hope that we will have some new members next year. Anyone who can play an instrument will he welcomed, regardless of standard.

The Music Club has been a very active one this year. A committee of nine senior girls were elected at the beginning of the year : Jeanette Dehnert, J ennifer Dale, Janice Forster, Janet Gawith, Ann Gibson, Leonie Haines, Elizabeth Holyman, Winsome Howell and Heather Lewis.

THE LUCERNIAN

We welcomed Miss Brown to our music staff this year. She has taken over Mrs. Thomas's singing classes, and Miss Davey's choir practices. We have our practices every Tuesday evening, with thirty-five junior and senior members. Forty of the senior girls have attended five of the six A.B.C. Celebrity Concerts this -year. We heard the soprano, Lois Marshall, accompanied by Weldon Kilburn, the talented violinist; Alfredo Campoli, accompanied by Maurice Till ; the American pianist, Grant Johannesen, and Ken. Neate, the Australian tenor. We were also fortunate to see the French conductor, Georges Tzipine, conduct the Victorian Symphony Orchestra. A final concert, also given by the Victorian Symphony Orchestra, was held in November. In July some of the seniors .and juniors were present at a concert sponsored by the Shell Company. They heard the Geelong Symphony Orchestra and a solo instrument, the trumpet. On Anzac Day, Monday, 25th April, the choir sang the anthem, " Let us now praise famous men," at the morning assembly. The Music Club held its first meeting during April. We welcomed Mrs. Heath, who showed us some most interesting slides of Russia, Europe and Asia, with a special accent on music. Our second meeting was held at the beginning of second term. The School Choir, under the direction of Miss Brown, sang four unison songs. Margaret and Graeme Hair also played some delightful piano solos. On the Monday afternoon of June 13th, the forms from 4B to Matriculation attended a short recital by a newly formed woodwind group ; this was held in the New Hall. The recital was led by Miss Pringle, who played the flute and piccolo. Her assistants played the clarinet, oboe, French horn and the bassoon. The Music Club met on Saturday, 23rd July. Our guests were the Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Hollis, from Geelong Grammar School, Mr. Hollis spoke to us about

the Chapel Royal, which is the choir of Westminster Abbey. Mrs. Hollis played some pieces on the flute, and was accompanied by her husband. The highlight of the term was the annual House Competitions. After many early morning practices, Doomsday fell on Sunday, 14th August. We thank Miss Davey very much for adjudicating our competitions once again. McPhee were victorious -kn the Choral Section, followed by Neilson, Hearne and David. Alison Dehnert, from McPhee, won the junior pianoforte section; Marilyn Miller, also from McPhee, won the intermediate section ; and Hearne's captain, Jenny Dale, won the senior section. After the various totals had been added up, McPhee were succssful in winning the competition. The first Music Club meeting for third term was held on a Sunday afternoon. The choir sang four Chi istmas carols and two anthems. The sethor girls completed the afternoon by plaiting some of their examination pieces. Sunday, 9th October, was the date of the School Service. The School Choir led the singing and sang the anthem, " Grant Us I ,fight.". The follow mg day the Public Music Examinations began ,and continued until Wednesday. We congratulate thr. girls on their pleasing results. Our remaining meeting this term is the annual " birthday party." We t.Nank Miss Wadelton for• her generosity and for her giving up her spare time to prepare this enjoyable evening. On behalf of the Music Club, I would like to thank all those who have taken a personal interest in our activities and who made our meetings possible—Miss Jacka, Mrs. Taylor and Miss Parkinson, for arranging the afternoon teas and suppers ; Miss Ohlson and Miss Brown, for organising our attendances at the various concerts and for her help and guidance to any musical problems we may have had ; the Music Staff, especially for their help given to the houses before Miss Shaw the choral competitions.

DRAMATIC CLUB REPORT This year the Dramatic Club presented " The Admirable Crichton," by J. M. Barrie, a well-known satire on English class distinction. This was an appropriate choice, as this year is the Barrie centenary. The story involves an aristocratic English family and their servant, and the problems that surround them. While wrecked on an island, the family discovered " whatever is natural, is right," and that characters should not be judged by their social position. The cast was : Lord Loam, May Fagg; Lady Mary Lasenby, Judith Fletcher ;

DRAMA GROUP On September 23rd and 24th Morongo and College again combined to present a play in the Gertrude Pratt Hall. On both evenings there were excellent audiences which proved most appreciative. The play acted this year was the most entertaining " George Washington Slept Here," by Moss and George S. Kaufman. The play was very well acted by Ann Gibson, Leonie Haines, Sandra Mockridge, Jillian Webb, Meredith Patterson, Elizabeth McNair, Lesley AtkinsonGrimshaw, Lorraine Binns, Jeanette Dehnert, Elizabeth Thomas, Elizabeth Holyman, Margot Hallam, Jan Gawith, Heather Lewis, Janice King, Janice Nicola, Tim Cole, Ross Both, Alistair McArthur, Gavin Jamieson, Peter Mann, Ian Barnett, Andrew Corr, David Davies, and Ewan Hazeldine. The success of the play was ensured by the smooth working of those behind the scenes. This was only the second year of the Drama Group, and 1 am sure that everyone will be looking forward to future productions. I am certain that all the girls who joined the group wish to thank Mr. Nicolson and his assistants, Mr. K. Hemmens and Mr. G. Young, for the time which they spent and patience shown in producing this play. Francis Lewis,

THE LUCERNIAN FRENCH CLUB REPORT

This year the French Club has not had many meetings. On July 8th the IVBX Latin class presented " In a Roman School," showing the school life of Roman boys. This was followed by some French songs, presented by the Leaving and Matriculation French Classes. On July 14th, a Thursday, the Intermediate, Leaving and Matriculation French Classes celebrated France's National Day in the Gym. The programme included prose and poetry readings, a short play, a crossword puzzle, and songs. This proved so successful that we produced the same programme the following day for the School. On Friday, 22nd July, the Matriculation French Class went with Miss Botterill to Melbourne in the " Thames " to see Moliere's play, " Les Precieuses Ridicules," at Wesley College. It was performed by members of the Alliance Francaise, and before the play the poems for the Alliance Francaise examinations were read. Because the play was so short, a French film was shown. It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening, and our thanks go to Miss Botterill for taking us and to Mr. Jenkins for driving us there. On Friday, 12th August, Matriculation French Class accompanied some of the junior boarders to the Hermitage play, which was the English translation of the Moliere play, " L'Avare." The evening was very pleasant, and we thank Miss Botterill again. The Alliance Francaise Examinations were held at Belmont High School on 13th August. We congratulate everyone who did so well and hope that the results will be good next year. Once again Miss Botterill and Miss Evans are to be thanked for the help and encouragement they have given this year, and may the French Club have continued success. Jill:an Webb.

THE LIBRARY REPORT This year both the appearance and the facilities of the Library have been greatly improved. The bookcases have been removed and new bookshelves of light, polished wood have been put in, making alcoves, so that girls may read undisturbed by others. In every alcove there is a grey table and four red chairs. We also have new yellow curtains, which were bought from our funds, and which look most attractive. The chairs and tables were given by a kind parent. We are all very grateful to him and thank him very much. Thanks also go to both Mr. Frazers for making and installing the bookcases. We have begun work on the file, which last year's committee bought, and it is now well under way. It is classified into History, Geography, Literature and other School subjects. Each section consists of cardboard folders containing clippings from newspapers, magazines, or pamphlets pertaining to the subject. We are very grateful to those who have given us material for the file, and thank them very much. Gifts to the Library this year have been many, and very generous. At the beginning of the year Miss Thompson gave us a beautiful Oxford atlas, which she bought for the Library while she was overseas last year. It was a very thoughtful and generous gift, and we do thank her very much. Jessica Selle and Karen Ewence gave large numbers of books ; more books were received from Cherrill Wade, Janet McIntyre, and Sandra Mockridge. Early this year Mr. C. Moreton and, later, Mr. Bell, gave generous donations. We thank all these people for their generosity, kind thoughts, and interest.

I would like to thank all the members of the committee for their help this year. It is, thanks to them, that the books have been checked so thoroughly, and that the file is making such good progress. Lastly, we all thank Miss Phillips for her constant interest and attention in the Library this year. She has worked very hard, and we would like her to know that we do appreciate it. Leonie Haines.

P.F.A. REPORT The following girls were elected as office-bearers for 1960: President, Jeanette Dehnert ; Vice-President, Janet Gawith ; Secretary, Diana Street ; Treasurer, Ann Gibson; Committee, Jennifer Dale, Leonie Haines, Elizabeth Holyman, Winsome Howell, Heather Lewis, Alison McIntosh, Elizabeth Thomas, and Anne Wadelton, who has been our worship convener. We have had quite a busy and active year, starting with the collection of newspapers every fortnight. From the sale of these we have made 15. Boxes placed around the boarding house have served to collect all used stamps. A large box of these is to be sent away shortly. At our first meeting we welcomed our Chaplain, Mr. McLean, who showed us some very interesting slides of Scotland. We made early preparations for the annual Service Exhibition, and some very useful and attractive garments were sent away. Saturday, 23rd April, was the date for our combined Morongo-College conference, at the You Yangs. Unfortunately, it was a wet day, so we thank the Geelong College Preparatory School staff for letting us use their new classrooms. We met in the afternoon for Bible study and discussion. We had our evening meal at Morongo, followed by devotions and further discussions. During second term members of both the P.G.A. and P.F.A. went down to the Grace McKellar Home to take the old folk flowers and magazines.

THE LUCERNIAN

On Friday, 5th August, we held a combined St. Davids - Geelong College Morongo P.F.A. social in the Gertrude Pratt Hall. We thank Mr. Davies for the time he spent in preparing a most entertaining evening. We sent away a large mission box to the Melbourne depot during the first week in August. Another box is also to be sent to the Ernabella Mission. Ann Gibson, Diana Street, Janet Gawith and I were invited to attend a tea at St. Andrews on Sunday, 24th July. The Rev. Allan Reid spoke to us about the Negro problem in U.S.A. The following Sunday evening our P.F.A. met, and Diana gave a summary of the Rev. Reid's address. Last Sunday we held a special service for World Refugee Year. Helen Robinson spoke to us on the situation of the refugees in the world to-day. We have again continued to meet on Sunday evenings for Bible study. In closing, we thank Miss Shaw for giving up so much of her time for our P.F.A. We also wish next year's officebearers every success in keeping the ideals and aims of the P.F.A. flourishing in the School. Jeanette Dehnert. P.G.A. REPORT This year has been busy for our society. The office-bearers elected were : President, Karen Funston ; Vice-President, Kathrin Maconachie ; Secretary, Pauline Simpson ; Treasurer, Vivien Notman. The meetings began with devotions prepared by Anne Wadelton, and a business meeting followed. A large parcel of entries was sent to the P.G.A. competitions. Number cards were made by the younger girls and project books were made by the older girls. Scrap books were also sent to a hospital. Leatherwork proved very interesting. Several stories were read to the girls while they worked. Early in the year Miss Shaw kindly showed us the film, " Fire in the Heather," which had been shown to the

senior girls earlier in the afternoon. Deaconess Galbraith and Miss Thompson have spoken to the P.G.A. during the year, and we are very grateful for their assistance. Members of the P.G.A. have paid frequent visits to the Grace McKellar Home for the aged. A badge presentation is being planned. The P.G.A. are presenting a play at the close of third term. On behalf of the P.G.A. I would like to thank Miss Shaw for her continued interest and her help and encouragement in all our activities. I would also like to thank the leaders and officebearers for their help and co-operation throughout the year. Lorraine Binns. ARTS AND CRAFTS REPORT This year we were very pleased to welcome Miss McGain to the teaching staff, and, together with Miss Howard, she has promoted a very high standard of work. The Sub-Intermediate girls have been taught bookmaking, or rather, the covering of their books with hand-made covers. Some of the girls have made memo. books with clothbound spines, and photograph albums During threaded with coloured cord. second term the girls made place marks from an open-weave cloth, working a cross-stitch design on them. Cushions were made in the same manner, the decoration being designed by the girls. Pottery was introduced during third term, and results have been good. The Intermediate, Leaving and Matriculation Art students visited the "Sun" Youth Art Show in Geelong and also the Geelong Art Gallery. I would like to thank Miss McGain for taking the boarders to see these exhibitions. I would also like to thank Miss Knapp for making it possible for me to see the Australian Art Exhibition in April, and Miss Howard for taking me on an architectural excursion to Scots' Presbyterian Church, St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Cathedral, St. Paul's Churc hof England Cathedral, the Myer Music Bowl, and

THE LUCERNIAN FIouse. We also saw an exhibition of Chinese paintings by Chen Wen Hsi. Miss McGain has also supervised a special Art class with Elizabeth Rushbrooke, Jenny Rogers and Susan David. These girls have made silk screen prints of their own design. The craft girls have been capably guided by Miss Howard, and have made raffia and cotton handbags with bamboo handles ; bath-mats of multi-coloured cotton rags woven on a cotton base, and raffia and cotton table-mats. Some girls have also. started to weave tartan skirt lengths. Miss Blake has taught the girls of 3A, 4B and Remove. The 4B girls have made patchwork cushions, felt and plastic articles, while the Removes have made handkerchief sachets, felt pyjama cases, and have woven plastic baskets. The 3A girls have made raffia mats and serviette rings, and various hand-sewn articles. The 3B girls, taught by Miss Tymms, have made shoe-bags, cane baskets and trays, and are knitting black mammies." On behalf of all the Art and Craft girls I would like to thank Miss McGain, Miss Howard and Miss Blake for their valued help and guidance throughout the year. Nea Stewart.

CANTEEN REPORT As the boarders' weekly allowance has gone up, the tuckshop seems to have become the most popular spot, but as we were careless with ice-cream sticks, those with sticks have been banned. All the foodstuff supplies have been arranged by Miss Leigh. We are very grateful to her, and also to Miss Mitchell and Miss Jacka, who have assisted throughout the year. Once again, during second term, soup and hot pies were . provided for the day girls. Our thanks go to Mrs. Rodder, who prepared the day girls' hot lunches, and also the senior girls who helped do the bread-rolls. Janice King, Janice Nicol.

STAMP CLUB REPORT During Term 1 a Stamp Club was formed. After several clashes with other recently-formed clubs, the meetings were arranged for every second Friday. We had a regular attendance of twelve girls at the meetings, all of whom showed keen interest. We are indebted to Mr. Lester, of Geelong College, for his interest and guidance throughout the year, and we would like to thank him for his assistance. I should also like to thank Margaret Kidd and Marianne Trezise for their help during the meetings. Features of the Stamp Club have been a show of English stamps and stamps depicting beards kindly lent by Mr. Lester ; several quizzes, and a talk on " The Care of Stamps," by Mr. Lester. Our start has been modest but interesting, and I would like to wish the Stamp Club the very best of luck for the next year. Elizabeth McNair.

SOCIAL SERVICE REPORT Social Service activities have played a prominent part in school life. During first term two forms had fetes, and they raised £23/15/- between them. The boarders have been collecting newspapers, magazines and used stamps, while the day girls have brought along bottle-tops. We sent away an enormous box during first term, and have another two to be sent away soon to the " Save the Children " Fund of the Women of the University. At the beginning of the term we posted cheques of £20 from Social Service, and £10 from the boarders to aid the Vila Hurricane Appeal. Another £10 was sent towards the annual Red Cross Appeal, and 15/5/- to the Good Friday Appeal for the Royal Children's Hospital. We also sent £2/2/6 to the United Nations Association. Eight forms had fetes during second term. These helped to raise the £40/15/that we sent to the World Refugee Year

THE LUCERNIAN

Appeal, and a further £5/5/- was sent to the Children's Hospital. A " Food for Peace " Shop was set up in Geelong, and we decided that the houses should take it in turn to provide some food each week. The day girls have responded very well to the campaign, and I would like to thank their parents, who are giving up so much time to bake cakes and biscuits for us. During July Miss Calder spoke to us about the Junior Red Cross. She also told us that many juniors collected laddered nylon stockings. They are placed around a broken limb before the plaster is put on, to enable the plaster to come off easily. We decided to collect some too, and supplies have been good. This year, instead of having a knitting competition, we decided to have a house competition for children's new and secondhand garments. Roslyn won, with Harris second and Lawson and Ardens equal third. The points given to Roslyn and Harris were added to their weekly house totals. The number of newlymade garments was slightly less than usual, but it was pleasing to see large quantities of secondhand clothing coming in. We wish to thank Miss Evans, who has worked enthusiastically for us throughout the year, and also all those who have co-operated and so made our Social Service a successful activity of Morongo. Jeanette Dehnert.

HOSPITAL REPORT

so we were fortunate in having Sisters Cronin and Willmott to take over for a few days during that time. We wish to thank Sister Matthews, Miss Jacka and Mrs. Taylor very much for their medical attention throughout the year. Elizabeth Thomas.

FROM ' MIN' TO YOU At the beginning of the term we welcomed our first Asian student to the School and boarding house. Her name is Min Kung Cheung, and it was from her that we " hard-worked " students were to learn much. Min had already passed her Leaving Certificate in ten subjects at a school in Hong Kong, where the school year is divided into two terms during each of which they had three examinations. Boys treble the girls in number at school because a girl's education is not stressed as much as the boys. In their classes speaking is forbidden, and this rule is rigidly obeyed. Punishment within the senior school is non-existent, as the older children never misbehave. I wonder if this could be said about any Australian school ! At her particular school the girls' summer uniform is a white frock, buttoned down the back, with a flared skirt and Peter Pan collar. In winter they wore green flared skirts, white shirts and blue coats. Ties are confined to the boys. They have a prefect system similar to ours.

There has been little illness this year, and the only epidemics were ringworm last term, and a gastric sickness early this term.

Although our meals differ greatly from Chinese meals, Min likes our food, but she loathes the breakfast dish, cheese sauce, and who could blame her. She objects strongly to making beds, too. First, pulling up the sheets, tucking them in, then the blankets, and so on. To avoid this, she sleeps covered only by her thick eiderdown. It is quite a good idea, too. Why waste time making beds!

Sister Matthews was not with us for the first few weeks of the third term,

Min likes song hits, especially Elvis Presley's " Now and Forever."

At the beginning of the year we welcomed Sister Matthews to our staff, and she has been assisted in the hospital and dispensary by Miss Jacka and Mrs. Taylor.

THE LUCERNIAN MORONGO GIRLS IN CANBERRA On Wednesday, 3rd August, at 8 a.m., Melbourne Airport took on quite an air of activity as sixty-seVen Morongo girls, with three members of staff, boarded the Douglas DC4 aircraft which took them to Canberra. Arriving in Canberra at 9.45 a.m., after an uneventful flight, we clambered into two buses, anxious to do as much sightWe were driven seeing as possible. around Duntroon Military College and saw the new Defence building for the Army and Navy, but did not have the good fortune to see any activity. Our first stop was at the United States Memorial, which is a 150 feet high cement pylon surmounted by an eagle. Its height presented a problem to the many keen photographers. The Civic Centre, which is the main shopping area of Canberra, has few noticeably tall buildings, but its modern layout, up-to-date stores and wide streets make it very attractive. Unlike other Capital cities, there are still some vacant allotments in this area, and these no doubt will soon be built on to provide more facilities for Canberra's increasing Population. We saw many beautiful buildings .in our tour of Canberra, but it would be impossible to describe them all ; so here are some of the more impressive ones. Federal Parliament House is surrounded by spacious green lawns and ornamental trees, and facing it is the King George V Memorial. We were conducted on a tour of the House of Representatives and

the Senate, but were unable to see the renowned King's Hall, as it was being re-decorated. The entrance to the National War Memorial opens on to a paved quadrangle, in the centre of which is a long pool. Reflected in this pool is a massive domed hall, appropriately called the Hall of Memory. A statue eighteen feet high, cast in bronze. with a green patina finish and set on a white marble pedestal, is the central feature of the Hall. The rich glass mosaic covering all walls, with apricot as the predominant colour, and the magnificent stained-glass windows portraying figures in uniform and equipment of the 1914-18 War, produce an atmosphere of reverence, yet also of pride. A fascinating subject for the photographers was the shallow, dome-shaped building of the Academy of Science. Opposite the Academy of Science was the Institute of Anatomy, in which an interesting display of biological specimens was set out. No city would be complete without its churches, and although we did not stop at any, the .churches we passed were fine examples of modern architecture. Just one day, yet we saw more of Canberra than we would have thought pOssible in such a short time. From the outset, the tour provided many unique sights, and reminders of these sights will be found in the photographs which were taken during the day. Margaret Hastie.

SPEECH NIGHT, 1959 SPEECH NIGHT, 1959 The Annual Speech Night was held at the Palais Royal on December 9th. Miss 0. Hay, Headmistress of Clyde School, Woodend, was our guest .speaker. Miss Shaw gave an account of the activities and achievements of the School throughout the year. Miss Hay presented the prizes and Mrs. McColl, the President of the 01(1 Collegians' Association, presented the sports trophies. The girls sang a bracket of songs, conducted by Mrs. Thomas.

ORIGINAL SECTION A TRIP TO QUEENSLAND On Wednesday, August 31st, Jill Dohnt, May Fagg, Helen Fidge, Lorraine Jones, Alison Laird, Elizabeth McCann, Dorothy McKenzie, Judy Minns, Helen Roberts, Nea Stewart, Marianne Trezise and myself met Miss Ohlson at the T.A.A. Airport, in Melbourne. After our luggage had been weighed, we boarded an Electra Mark II plane for Sydney, and took off at 4.10 p.m. The journey was smooth, and we had a good view, as the day was clear. On arrival in Sydney, we were taken in three taxis to King's Cross. We were to stay at the Canberra Oriental Private Hotel till Friday morning. After being allotted rooms and leaving our cases, we had tea in a restaurant in King's Cross, then explored the streets. We decided to take a bus to the Sydney Harbour Bridges and here

we crossed the bridge by train and returned, enjoying a view of Sydney at night. The following day we were taken in taxis to the Sydney Railway Station to catch the 9 a.m. train for Newcastle. We travelled first class, and went through the Sydney suburbs of Epping and Hornsby and passed across beautiful hilly country, broken by stretches of water, to Gosford, then Newcastle, where we had lunch in the Treasury Cafe, after which we were taken for a drive round Newcastle suburbs to B.H.P. Here our inspection included seeing steel furnaces tapped, molten steel bubbling like porridge in open hearth furnaces, red-hot steel being rolled and angle iron and wire being made. After our inspection, we returned to the station, through the city area, very hot and rather dusty, having had an enjoyable and most edu-

THE LUCERNIAN cational afternoon. The return trip was mostly in darkness, so we did not see much. On our return to Sydney, some girls accompanied Miss Ohlson on a ferry trip across the harbour. Friday morning was our last morning in Sydney, so, after checking out of the hotel and leaving our luggage at the T.A.A. City Terminal, we walked to Circular Quay and caught the Manly ferry. It was a warm, sunny, calm day, and the ferry trip was very pleasant. At Manly we walked through the shopping area to the surf beach and had lunch there. When we returned to Sydney, we were taken to the airport and caught the Brisbane plane. In Brisbane we were met and taken to the Canberra Private Hotel, where we had tea in the Palm Lounge Cafe. At 5.30 p.m. we left the bus terminal by bus for Binna Burra. It was a long trip to the south, part of it down the coast through Southport to the Lamington Plateau, and as it was dark, our view was restricted. To while away the time, we entertained the other passengers with melodious singing. On our arrival at the Binna Burra Lodge, we were assigned to cabins, then met in the recreation dining room for supper, and then to bed. Saturday was fine and hot, and after breakfast we collected our lunch and set off into the forest. We were to do the Coomera Falls circuit. It was cooler in the forest, where the tall trees met overhead and where there were some peculiarly shaped trees and vines. The leaders set a fast pace, and we found ourselves at the river fairly soon. We decided to boil the billy and have lunch here on the rocks near the river. Three people were unfortunate enough to slip and get wet, but soon dried off. The tea was delicious, though we had to remove a layer of tea leaves from the top beforehand. Owing to the experienced guides in the party, our fire was a success, though we nearly left without any matches. On the return trip, we crossed the river many times. There were some lovely views, and a peculiar tree called

the Cathedral Tree aroused interest. When we returned, quite weary after a fourteen-mile walk, there was a dash for the showers, but these all turned out to be cold. After dinner, there was a fancy-dress evening, and two of our party, as " Mum " and " Dad," won first prize. After this, there were games and (lancing. Most of us slept-in till the breakfast bell on Sunday morning, but no one suffered any ill-effects from the walk, so we took our dinner and walked the fourmile circuit to the White Caves. We mistook the Aboriginal Cooking Caves for the White Caves, and were disappointed at first, until, further along the track, we saw a notice, and so did have lunch at the attractive White Caves. The trip back along the road became very warm, and when we reached the Lodge again, most of us rested till afternoon tea. After this, we left by bus for Brisbane, having had a most enjoyable week-end. On the return trip, we made good time, and had plenty of views of the distant ocean, and we sang once again, till we reached Brisbane at 7 p.m. At the Canberra Private Hotel we were given our rooms, and were divided up between the fourth and eighth floors. We had Monday morning free, so, in two groups, we went shopping and visited the Queensland University. One group went up inside the Town Hall tower, and as we were admiring the view of Brisbane, the clock bells above us struck twelve. In the afternoon we were taken to the beautiful Oasis. Those who were not swimming in the three pleasantly inviting pools, wandered through the lovely gardens, and we all met again in the dance pavilion for afternoon tea. In the evening some girls went with Miss Ohlson to see "Auntie Mame," whilst the others saw " South Pacific." At 9.30 a.m. on Tuesday, a small Pioneer coach called for us and took us on the near North Coast Panorama Tour. This included the Glass House Moun-

THE LUCERNIAN

tains and north coast holiday resorts around Moreton Bay, and we saw tropical fruit and sugar-cane cultivation. We went as far north as Nambour, stopping for a delicious drink of pure pineapple juice and to buy cheap pineapples at a fruit stall on the way. We had lunch in Nambour at the Panorama Driveaway Cafe. This cafe lived up to its name, providing a magnificent view of the surrounding countryside. On the return trip we stopped at a pineapple farm and saw pineapples growing. We returned to the hotel after a pleasant trip. On our last morning in Brisbane, most of the girls went to Lone Pine and were photographed with koalas, and some, very bravely, with a snake around their necks. The others went shopping for souvenirs or visited the Art Gallery. We returned to the hotel after lunch, and at 2.30 p.m. we were taken to the AnsettA.N.A. City Terminal, and from there to the airport. We were late leaving because of the arrival of the singer, Ricky Nelson. We took off from Brisbane, and after a smooth flight, landed in Sydney. After a short wait there, we were on our way again. This time we were not so lucky, for the trip was very rough. When we landed in Melbourne, the fact that our trip was over was made only too plain by the cold, rainy weather which we experienced after the hot, sunny weather of the north. We thank Miss Ohlson most sincerely for giving up her holiday to take us on a trip which was thoroughly enjoyed by every girl. Jillian Webb.

THE TALE GRANDMA TELLS Round 1916 my grandparents, who lived in a property twenty-three miles from Deniliquin, sent to Melbourne for a kitchen-boy. Our story begins on the day of his arrival in early spring. He came out to Pine Hills, as the property was called, with the mailman in the mail-car. He sat in the back seat with the mailbags.

He began his duties at once, cleaning the cutlery (no stainless steel in those days), washing dishes, sweeping verandahs and feeding the fowls. Dennis was a thin, dark-haired, sharp featured lad of about fourteen years old. He wore long black stockings and short pants. Gran said: " Poor boy ; he looks half starved," and proceeded to feed him up. Three days after his arrival, a blacktracker and policeman rode out to Pine Hills. They said that Dennis had slit all the mailbags and scattered the letters along the road. As there was no doubt of his guilt, Grandpa paid his fine and, after a good scolding, sent him back to his work. A few days afterwards, the men came to Grandpa in his office and complained that the drinking water was pink and that they were being poisoned. Dennis had put green almonds in the water, making it turn pink when it was boiled for tea. After that, more things happened. Dennis threw an axe at a fowl and cut its leg off. When he was made to pluck it for punishment, he put the tail feathers through the wringer during the washing, and sprinkled the pin feathers over the washing on the line. He buried the good silver and cutlery in the orchard, and, instead of collecting the fowls' eggs, used them for target practice. Imagine the cook's annoyance! One day Grandpa came in, and fumingly told everyone in hearing distance, in a loud voice : " The meat-safe's full o' flies ! " Dennis overheard, and ran for shelter in the barn. When he was found, and asked if he had done it, he denied doing so. Grandma said: " Tell me, Dennis, how did you do it ? " Dennis answered, eagerly : " I put one 'ole in the top to let 'em in, an' one in the bottom to let 'em out ! " Next day, gazing through the kitchen window at a haystack of freshly-mowed hay, he said : " Wouldn't it make a lovely blaze? ! ! " As it was early summer, and Grandpa had overheard the remark,

THE LUCERNIAN he said: " This is the last straw ! ! " and next day saw Dennis on the train going home to Mum. I think Dennis must have been the original Dennis the Menace. Robyn McAllister (Remove).

It was rather good fun. On Thur. we had a celeb. concert. Can't remember the man's name, but he was a singer (either a bass baritone or a tenor).

Anne Wadelton (6A). THE PUPPETS On Tuesday, 26th April, Miss Steere very kindly took us to the Geelong Theatre to see a puppet show. As we were very excited, we were eager for it to begin. A puppet worked by a hand inside opened the show with some humorous remarks about the audience. One of the most interesting items was by " shadow puppets," which were made either of cardboard or donkey skin. They were held behind a screen of strips of long wire, and pulling the wire moved the figures. The story based on these unusual puppets was Chinese, and called " Chinese Crackers." Another of our favourite items was taken from some of the annuals. It was Muffin, the mule, and his friends. He and his friends were guided by Ann Hogarth, a very clever puppeteer. While Louise, the Lamb, Katy, the Kangaroo, Kooey, the Kiwi, and Muffin danced, Jan Bussell played the guitar and sang a song for each animal. Following this came a Chinese ballet by string puppets—" The Spirit of Gold and the Spirit of Silver." It was marvellous the way they kept in time with the music, and their clothes were beautifully decorated. In another item we were introduced to a horse and cowboy. It was rather fascinating how the horse's feet went one after another, just as though it were real. The cowboy and the horse are two separate puppets,

THE LUCERNIAN

The last item was again Chinese—a Chinese man dressed in gold kept bringing from behind his back all his sons and daughters. The sons and daughters were guided by six boys from the audience, and they danced to a funny song. We dreaded the thought of returning to work after such an enjoyable programme. Sue Morrow (11 years). PRACTICE Each day I practise For an hour, I play a piece Called " London Tower." I find it hard To play legato, But much easier To play staccato. I like playing The pianoforte ; But sometimes it's hard To find high "A." Each day I practise For an hour, And finish with " The London Tower." Jane Urquhart (10 years). MY TRIP On April 8th, 1960, we left Essendon Airport for Sydney. That evening we boarded a Boeing 707 for Honolulu, stopping in transit at Fiji for three-quarters of an hour. We were in Honolulu for one day. During our stay we saw hula dancing, surfing, and other attractions. Late that night we left for Los Angeles, U.S.A. The next morning we went to Disneyland, which consists of Fantasyland, Adventureland, Tomorrowland and Frontierland. After four days we left for New York, where we went up the Empire State Building at night and went round Manhattan Island, We also saw Marilyn Monroe.

We arrived in London, and during our stay in Britain visited mostly relations and friends. On June 2nd we left for Venice, Italy, stopping at Milan and looking at the cathedral and town on the way. In Venice we rode on gondolas at night, and visited cathedrals and a palace. A few days later we left for Rome, where we saw cathedrals, ruins, catacombs and a few of the Olympic Stadiums. We then went to Thailand, or Siam, as it used to be called. We visited the Marble Temple, Golden and Emerald Buddhas, the King's Palace, and other temples. After five days, we left for Tokyo, Japan, stopping in Hong Kong for fuel, as Typhoon " Mary " had hit Hong Kong the day before and a 400-ton ship was lying on the runway. In Tokyo we visited many shrines and temples. Those of Shinto religion worship in shrines, and Buddhists in temples. At Nara the Great Buddha is 72 feet high. During our stay the riots were on, right under our window. It was hard to get to sleep ! After ten days, we returned to Hong Kong. Whilst there we saw beautiful scenery and crowded, smelly old streets. We then left for Manilla, Darwin, Sydney and Melbourne. Erica Potter (3AII) (10 years) MANNERS FOR A BABY BROTHER No, Baby, you mustn't eat Such a big slice ; It's really most rude, for It doesn't look nice. You have to behave when You go out to tea, So watch very closely And eat just like me.

THE LUCERNIAN First, take up the piece in Your hand on the right (You don't use the other, It isn't polite). Then chew it quite slowly, and Bite, do not pull, Remember, don't talk when You know your mouth's full. So, now start your breakfast And eat as you should, I'll just look to see if Your manners are good. Oh, mother, come quickly, He's swallowed a lump, And needs on the back not A pat, but a thump ! Pam Cairns (Intermediate). THE GIRL GUIDE JUBILEE PAGEANT It is now fifty years since Guiding began, and this jubilee is being celeIn Australia, brated in many lands. a commemorative stamp was issued, and in Victoria a Jubilee Pageant was held at the Olympic Pool, Melbourne, Guides, Rangers and Brownies from all over Victoria taking part. There were many acts presented, showing various incidents and aspects of Guiding. Some of these scenes were humorous, some serious, and others spectacular. In the first scene, colour parties, with their flags, marched on to the pool, which had been boarded over, and made a horseshoe formation. There were two or three hundred of them, and the blue uniforms made a colourful display against the golden floor, with the polished trefoils on the flagstaffs gleaming above them. Then came the scene at the Crystal Palace Rally, when the girls presented themselves to be inspected by the founder, Lord BadenPowell. To us they were very amusing, as they wore long black skirts almost to their ankles, black stockings, and thick walking shoes, big scout hats, and carried staves. Then it was shown how, during the two World Wars, the Guides helped and cared for the wounded and, later, after

World War II, the Guide International Service was formed, to help and comfort the victims of warfare. After World War I the Brownie and Ranger sections of the movement were begun. On the half - darkened arena, the Brownies formed two circles. They appeared very tiny, but confident, as they all held hands and then performed their Grand Howl. Later on, the Sea Rangers danced a hornpipe to show one of the changes that took place during the 'twenties. More interesting were the following dancers, who, complete with their long beads, short skirts and high heels and boater-hatted partners, performed the Charleston. There was also a scene showing how guiding has spread through the world, with authentic uniforms of those in the movement in France, Poland, U.S.A. and other countries, when a few girls, representing each country, marched into the arena in triangle formations, with their flag at its apex. The last tableau depicted the International Camp, held recently in Victoria, with girls from all countries camping together. The grand finale was very colourful and spectacular, when all those in uniform—Guides, Rangers, early Guides and Guides from other countries— marched on to the arena and created the Union Flag. With this scene, the pageant was over, everyone—audience and participants—having had a wonderful time. GHOST GUM It stood alone, A slender sight, Pale and clear In the resting night. The wind was blowing In short, soft sighs ; The moon was glowing Across the skies. Shimmering leaves, And trunk so tall, There like a sentinel Guarding all. Janet Cox (11 years)

THE LUCERNIAN A TRIP TO THE SNOW On Saturday, Daddy decided to go to Mt. Donna Buang for the day. We were in Melbourne, because we had driven up there on Friday and stayed at my aunt's place overnight. Aunt's family also came with us. When we had prepared our lunch, we packed their car, and ours. On our arrival we had to leave our cars at the roundabout. The two men went in one car and the women in another. When we arrived there we had lunch, and then we started up the road. We could not drive our cars up because there was snow. On our way up to the top, we were throwing snow, and when Rod threw a snowball, it went down Stuart's neck. When we were at the top, we made a snowman. Daddy climbed down the side of the mountain and got some enormous pieces, and we took them to Mummy. When we had made the snowman's body, Mummy made the head. We gave the snowman a hat, pipe and some arms, buttons, eyes and a nose. Daddy had brought his camera with him up to the snow, so he took a few pictures of us next to the snowman. Then it was time to return to the cars. On our way back Daddy got two scarves and pulled us on our feet to give us turns of skating. When we got back to the car, and were on our way, it started to snow. The flakes were only as big as rain starting to spit, but, still, it was lovely seeing the white flakes fl owing everywhere. THE BEACH I love to walk down by the beach And hear the seagulls call ; To listen to the waves roll in And crash upon the wall. I love to feel the soft brown sand, That lies there all so still, To feel it trickle through my hand And fall back down at will. I love to let the salt sea breeze Pass gently through my hair, And watch the tide roll freely in As if it had no care.

I love to watch the evening sun Sink slowly down behind the walls Of salt sea spray and passing mist, To end another perfect day. Corinne Nicholas (12 years). GOLF I have recently contracted a fastspreading disease, " golfish," and, unfortunately, I am now firmly in its grasp. Equipped with a brand new set of golf clubs, I set out for the course to become more acquainted with the game, only to learn how exasperating and tantalising it is. After balancing the ball on the tee, I lined up what I fondly hoped would be a perfect shot. Instead, the club had cracked into the ground with such force that my arms ached for hours afterwards. As for that little white ball, it fell with a plop from the tee and rolled a bare two feet. Somewhat daunted, I tried again and, finally, landed the ball with a hook shot into the rough, where it disappeared for half an hour. Eventually I managed to struggle to the ultimate goal—the green. Here, again, there were more difficulties, and after putting from one side to the other, it was sunk with a lovely shot. I wasted many fruitless Saturday mornings cracking away at a ball that refused to co-operate until, finally, I had conquered it, or so I thought. Now I am back again, struggling to get out of sand bunkers and putting from one side of the green to the other. I am told this continues for some time. M. Roszback. THE HAUNTED HOUSE (An Impossible Story) Characters : John, Jennifer, Father, Mother, the Ghost, 1st Tree, 2nd Tree, 3rd Tree, 4th Tree, 5th Tree, 6th Tree, the Good Fairy. Scene I: John and Jennifer are walking home from school on the last day of the

term.

THE LUCERNIAN Jennifer : I wish we were going away for the holidays, don't you? John : Yes ! perhaps to-morrow we could take a picnic lunch to that old house on top of the hill. No one lives there now. J ennifer : But, John, Dad says that house is haunted; we couldn't possibly go there. John: Oh, I don't believe what Dad says . . . there are no such things as ghosts, and yesterday someone told me that there were six talking trees all around that house, and anyone who went near the house would be clasped with their long branches and crushed to death. But I don't believe a word of it. Jennifer : Oh, John ! I hope that person was wrong; but, of course, there are no such things as ghosts or talking trees. They are only old wives' tales ! (The children rush home to ask their parents if they may go for a picnic the next day). Scene II: At Home. John: Mum, may we take a picnic lunch to the woods to-morrow ? (He tells a lie). Mother : Yes, of course you may, dear. Father (from behind his newspaper) : But don't go anywhere near that haunted house, will you? John (he tells another lie) : No, of course we won't. Scene III: Next morning, carrying some sandwiches to the picnic. Jennifer : I don't suppose that house is really haunted, do you ? John : Of course not. Come on. (He starts to climb the hill). Jennifer : Wouldn't it be rather dark inside that little house ? Let's have lunch outside it, and explore it afterwards. John : Very well, but let's explore it first. (John is nearly at the top of the hill, but Jennifer is only half-way up.) Scene IV: At the house. 1st Tree (in a booming voice) : What are you doing here. (He clasps his branches around John).

John : Help ! Help ! He is squeezing me ! ( Jennifer runs to help, but the 2nd tree grabs her). Jennifer : Help ! Help ! (Suddenly a good fairy appears). Good Fairy : Oh! Are you two caught by those wicked old trees ? I will set you free. (She picks up an axe and chops down the 1st and 2nd trees.) Good Fairy : Now I shall chop down the others. 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th Trees (together) : Oh, No ! Good Fairy, please don't chop us down! Fairy : I must ; you are bad trees. (She cuts down the other trees). John and Jennifer (together) : Oh, thank you very much for setting us free. Fairy : Now you two must go home, or the ghost inside the house might catch you. (She points to a big white ghost looking out of the window). Ghost : What are you doing here ? Go away, or I will eat you. (John and Jennifer run home, and tell their parents all about it). Scene V : At home. Jennifer : We'll never go there again ; the trees are gone, but the ghost is still there. John : I bet the old ghost was cross at having his trees chopped down, anyway. Mother : I hope you have learnt your lesson now. Father : Yes, you have been naughty not to believe us, but you are safe now. (They sit down happily to their evening meal). Rhonda Jones (3B) (10 years).

A VISIT TO THE DENTIST We had just been for a picnic in the hills. The trip back was very silent, except for a few sneezes from my little sister, who had just got over a heavy cold. Suddenly, my older brother broke the silence with a loud, " Oh, my poor tooth ; that big one at the back, it's so sore."

THE LUCERNIAN

I turned round and frowned at him. I knew this meant he should have to go to the dentist, and, if he went, we all went for " a good old check-up," as Dad called it. Every holiday seemed to be spoilt by " a good old check-up." Next morning, we all got into the back of the car, my little sister clutching her lucky charm, so we would not have to go to the dentist. At last, we arrived there. The waiting room seemed rather empty, although there were three other people there. In one corner sat an old lady, knitting. In another corner a mother nursing a small boy about three or four years old. He had big brown eyes and was crying bitterly. I picked up a magazine, and was just about to open it when a nurse came in with a little girl, who ran over to the lady who was nursing the little boy. " Jennifer Henton, please," she said. I stood up, my legs shaking and my tummy jumping. I followed the nurse to a big room and sat myself in the seat. The dentist felt my teeth with a stick of metal and looked into a little mirror. Suddenly, he said, "Ah ! This tooth needs to come out. Shall I take it out, or would you like to leave it to come I think I w-will leave out by itself ? " it alone," I stammered. I sat up, and much to my surprise, the nurse put her hand down and from the towel I had over my knees, picked up a tooth. " It fell out as you sat up," she said. After taking a glass of red water, I thanked the dentist and walked out, feeling glad it was over, and feeling as if I did not know whether I had liked it or not. Jennifer Henton (10 years).

JUMBO'S PARTY One day it was Jumbo's birthday. He was only a baby elephant, and he lived at a circus. He was only two years old. He invited his friend Sammy, the horse, and Speckle, the other elephant, and, last of all, Lucky, the baby monkey. They gave him presents, and when he opened all of them he found hay. " Oh, thank you! thank you! " he cried. They

had hay and peanuts for their supper. They had a glorious time. Just at that instant they heard a noise behind them. They whirled around and there was a bull elephant. All Jumbo's friends ran for their lives, but Jumbo wasn't scared of him because the bull elephant was Jumbo's father. He said, " What's been going on, Junior ?" Jumbo said, " I haven't done anything, Father." Jumbo's father said, " Well, what's all that mess there, Junior ? " And Jumbo said, " We have had a party." Jumbo's mother came in from doing her tricks in the big tent, and in her trunk she had a parcel : " Happy birthday, Junior, darling." " Than you, Mummy." Then they sang " Happy Birthday " to him. Sue-Anne Hodges (IIIC). (10 years).

YOUTH GARDEN PARTY On Saturday, March 12th, 1960, 1 had the pleasure of attending one of the Governor's Garden Parties, held in the grounds of Government House, Melbourne. I attended as one of three Guides from the Geelong West Division. All Guides were to assemble around the statue of the Marquis de Linlithgow," the first Governor of Victoria. By 10.30 a.m., most of the girls were lined up, and were. ready to march up and through the gates to Government House, where the Governor officially opened the garden party. By 11 a.m., the gathering of young people was assembled in a large ring on the lawns facing Government House. The Governor, Sir Dallas Brooks, then proceeded to walk round and mix with the young people, having a word here and there with some fortunate girl or boy. Lady Brooks and her daughter, Mrs. Byrne, did the same. Sir Dallas then introduced Mr. Ramsay, who for 11 years had been the Director of Education. He was retiring that very day.

THE LUCERNIAN The displays were held on the lawns in front of Government House, and were provided by the Royal Australian Navy, Australian Army Corps, and the Air Force. The Royal Australian Artillery Band provided the music. This day, being fine and sunny, Lady Brooks wore a pale blue and white frock and a large white hat. She carried a white parasol. Mrs. Byrne, who wore a blue suit, was accompanied by Jennifer in a pink frock, and Christopher, in blue shorts. Lady Brooks was presented with a large bouquet of flowers. We then had refreshments, which ended an unforgettable morning.

THE FOLLY OF MANKIND Each day and night that passes, In our struggle for amassing We draw away from God. With earthly bonds of treasure In work and future pleasures, We draw unto ourselves. Cannot foolish men yet see Security can only be For him through love of God ? Helen Mathison (16 years).

ALMOST FROM " POET'S WORLD " Tired with all these, for holidays I cry, Oh, to be home and leave it all. Exams. and work that should be done, Trouble coming from your fun. Early mornings in freezing cold, Surging because of custom old.

Practising with numbing hand, Scales, or a piece you cannot stand, Attending prep. on all week nights, Friendly jokes which lead to fights, Your day being made out by the bell, Which brings it in, and ends as well, Tired with all these, from these I would be gone, Save that to leave, I would leave my friends behind. Diana Street (16 years).

DRESSMAKING REPORT The dressmaking classes have been under the supervision of Miss Blake and Miss Hall on Saturday mornings for the benefit of the boarders. Many of us do dressmaking as a subject for Intermediate and Leaving Certificates, and we were glad to hear from Miss Blake that the inspector seemed pleased with our work. Hobbies Day was held on November 11th, and we had a lovely day for it. Our visitors were able to wear attractive summer dresses and were able to view our mannequin parade without fear of rain or gusty winds. This year's parade included sports wear, lingerie, afternoon frocks and evening dresses. We congratulate Joan Campbell in producing an " Ah ! " from our audience that would have been worthy of any Paris salon when she modelled her midnight blue shot taffeta ballerina. The dressmaking students thank our teachers for their help, patience and guidance in " good taste." We really appreciate all they have done for us.

OLD COLLEGIANS' ASSOCIATION Office-bearers, 1960 President: Audrey Gillett. Senior Vice-President: Marjorie Reeve. Junior Vice-President: Heather Darby. Secretary: Jean Rentoul. Treasurer: Eathorne Pavia. Assistant Secretary: Jennifer Heath. This year, without the impetus of the Gertrude Pratt Hall, has been more routine, and although much has been

achieved, there has not been the exciting anticipation which was climaxed by the opening of the Hall in 1959. However, we have still been busy, as will be seen by the following summary of events. To our President, Audrey Gillett, we are indebted for her interest and leadership throughout the year, and we are very pleased she has consented to take the presidency for another year. We assure her of our loyalty and support. The

THE LUCERNIAN

Committee, as usual, has been ever willing to take their share of the responsibility and work in the running of the Association, which each year is growing so rapidly. RE-UNION On 14th November members gathered for the afternoon tea, Annual Meeting and dinner at the School. Afternoon tea is always an informal, happy gathering, at which many who have not met for some time enjoy renewing friendships. At 4.15 p.m. the meeting in the Hall was presided over by June McColl, a short Service of Dedication preceding the routine business meeting, and was led by Deaconess Doreen Galbraith, who, after dedicating the table, chairs and lectern, asked the President to hand these over on behalf of the Association to Miss Shaw. We were pleased Miss Pratt joined in this service by unveiling the very beautiful table. We were delighted to receive a very beautiful blue Bible marker from Scotland for the Bible which had been presented by the Original Roslyn girls. Kitty Paterson (McLennan) was the donor. At the dinner our guests included Miss Shaw, Miss Pratt, representatives of M.L.C., P.L.C. and the Hermitage, as well as School personnel. Approximately 120 members attended. SWIMMING SPORTS Jenny Lillingstone, Di Longwell, Elizabeth Rushbrooke and Janice Gray formed our swimming team and swam into second place, which we thought was very good.

" SUN " TENNIS CUP This annual event was held in March, and our team was very successful in their section, and although not entering the finals, they were runners-up in "A" Section. Congratulations to Robyn Hodgson, Heather Dorran, Pat Tymms and Barbara Bradshaw. GARDEN FETE In perfect weather the Fete was held on 26th March, and once again was an outstanding success. The Association was represented on most stalls, and ran a cake and biscuit stall, which proved a very good effort. Gross takings were up in the i800 mark again, and the Old Collegians received a third share of the nett profits. " SUN " GOLF CUP On March 28th the Golf Cup was played at Royal Melbourne, and although our team did not win, the girls had a very enjoyable day and ably represented the Association. Those playing were Marjorie Reeve, Alison Crossley, Jessie Beckman, Jessie Lilburne, Doreen Baxter and Marieta Jones. STAFF PARTY Committee members and staff all thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality extended by Audrey Gillett when the annual welcome to staff was held at " Jalna," Anakie, on 5th April. MELBOURNE RE-UNION Unfortunately, owing to the torrential rain, no one from Geelong was .able to attend the April Re-union, but about 30 Melbourne members braved the elements and had an enjoyable evening.

WESTERN DISTRICT CHURCH SERVICE

ATHLETICS

Miss Shaw, Audrey Gillett and Jean Rentoul attended the Annual Service, which was held in March at St. Andrews Church, Colac, and it was gratifying to see so many Old Collegians present.

Athletics do not seem to be a strong point of the Association, but, in spite of being out of practice, we fielded a team at the Annual Sports. Needless to say, we did not win !

THE LUCERNIAN AT HOME This year the At Home took the form of a dinner dance, and all tables were fully booked. The Decorations Committee had worked very hard, and the hall looked festive and gay, the foyer being featured by the beautifully arranged urn of multi-coloured hydrangeas against the Having the hall soft green drapings. heated made the evening a much more enjoyable one for those present. Six debutantes trained by Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Wilson were presented by the President, Audrey Gillett, to Miss Shaw and Mr. and Mrs. Ewen Laird. Although a small one, the set was very pleasing to watch. During the evening Mrs. Whitcroft delighted those present with the singing of a bracket of songs. CHARITY FUND was held in The usual rummage July, and an amount of £17 odd was raised from this effort. A donation of £15/15/- was voted to the World Refugee Year Appeal. MORONGO CHURCH SERVICE The Annual Service was held in October, and it was inspiring to see the church crowded. The School singing was lovely to listen to and the address by Rev. Weeks gave scholars and Old Collegians a great deal of food for thought. NATIONAL COUNCIL OF WOMEN June McColl and Dorothy Ruxton have been our representatives on the Council, and have reported to the committee on the activities of this organisation. YOUNGER SET Jenny Lillingstone has headed the Younger Set this year and has found the lack of interest very disturbing. She has presented her own report, which is printed hereunder. COMBINED OLD GIRLS' CLUB Your Association was called upon to attend a meeting at the Caris Club, Melbourne, when about 35 Old Collegians'

Associations formed a Combined Club. Audrey Gillett and Jean Rentoul have represented Morongo, and have found the closer association with other schools very stimulating. Mrs. Williams, of M.L.C. Old Girls' Club, is the president and Mrs. Minson, of Toorak College, is Treasurer and Secretary. Two meetings are held each year. Miss Guvett, of Korowa, addressed the last meeting, and most members were more than surprised to hear the many demands which had to be met by headmistresses, outside the School itself. They are indeed very busy people. FOOD FOR PEACE The School has been supporting, with foods and kind, the shop which has been running in rented premises in Malop St. Your Committee has been assisting by providing helpers on the third Thursday of each month. Owing to many obstacles which could not be overcome, the shop has had to close. MELBOURNE RE-UNION October again was the chosen time for the second Melbourne Re-union, and Audrey and Jean represented the A ssociation from Geelong. This was an excellent evening, over 65 being present, including Miss Pratt. Miss Shaw, unfortunately, was unable to attend. WESTERN DISTRICT The Annual Meeting of this Branch was also held in October, and your President and Secretary were present on this occasion. Both Melbourne and Western District are to be congratulated on the very grand job they are both doing in keeping the Old Collegians in touch with the School activities. They have presented their own reports. GENERALLY In an Association of this size it is difficult to keep in touch with members, and it is only with your help that we can do so. If you hear of any news that might be of interest in the " Lucernian," or you know that a member has moved to a new address, please let your Sec-

THE LUCERNIAN

retary know. We are interested in all members, but unless you assist us in this way it is inevitable that some will miss out. We once again extend our grateful thanks to those who have helped us during the year—to Miss Shaw for her advice and interest, to Miss Jacka and the domestic staff and to Mr. Geoff. Neilson, our Auditor, who so generously gives his time. All members are pleased to know our good friend, Mr. J. N. David, is once again able to take his place at the Council Meetings, where his advice and interest has been invaluable to the School. Many of our members have become engaged, been married or had the joy of welcoming little ones to their homes. To these we extend our very best wishes. To those who have been touched by sorrow we offer our sincere sympathy. The Association itself has this Year lost a very true friend in the passing of Daisy Pillow. There is a saying, " To have a friend is to be one," and from the countless numbers who were touched by her death, Miss Pillow was indeed a friend to those who were privileged to come under her influence. To those of her family we extend our sympathy. To the girls who are leaving the School we extend the hand of welcome, and we trust that in the future we may look forward to having them join our ranks and so keep in touch with " The Best School of All."

In March of this year we. lost the services of Judy Stinton, who went overseas, and I would like to thank Sue Alton for her help and interest during Judy's absence.

Owing to the very low attendances at our meetings during the year, our activities have been very limited. We all know how busy our lives are after we leave school, but one night a month is not really very much, is it ? Please try to make the effort to come next year. Once again this year we had a Barbecue at the Annual Garden Party. Unfortunately, we were not quite so successful as the previous year. After the Garden Party the Younger Set had a Woolshed Dance and Barbecue at Ceres. At one of our meetings, we had a " slide night " at the home of Joan Drew, and that was quite a success. Also, we have had an interchanging supper committee. Before Christmas we are to have a car trial, finishing with a Barbecue. Your support would be appreciated. I wish the Younger Set all the best for the oncoming year. Jenny Lillingston. MORONGO OLD COLLEGIANS' ASSOCIATION Revenue Account for the Year Ended 39th September, 1960.

WESTERN DISTRICT BRANCH The Annual Meeting for 1959 was held at the Hi-Lite Cafe, Colac, on Saturday. October 24th, at 2.30 p.m. There was a large number of Old Collegians present, and we were happy to welcome Miss Shaw, June McColl and Jean Rentoul. Miss Shaw occupied the chair for the election of office-bearers, which resulted as follows :— President : Una McLeod. Secretary : Judith Pocock. Treasurer : Glenys Drayton. Vice-Presidents : Margaret Potter, Hilary Howev and Shirley Bennett. At this meeting a lengthy discussion took place concerning the prices of admission to our dances. We decided to raise the price to 10/-, and I think this has proved to be successful. During the year a chair was presented to the Gertrude Pratt Hall in memory of Joyce Alexander.

THE LUCERNIAN

So far this year, we have had two dances, and a third is planned for early December. The first dance was held on April 29th, and the result of this was disappointing. On August 16th we held our second dance in conjunction with Margaret Ilett, who was a candidate for Miss Summer Festival. This dance was well attended, and resulted in a profit of ill, of which Margaret received half ; expenses seemed to run away with the profits. Our Christmas dance, as usual, was well attended at the end of last year, and we only wish all the other dances were the success this one is. The Church Parade was held at St. Andrews, Colac, in March, when we were happy to have as our guests for the service Miss Shaw, Audrey Gillett and Jean Rentoul, and we were very sorry they could not stay to lunch with us. Fourteen Old Collegians joined in lunch at the Hi-Lite Cafe. We were deeply grieved to learn of the passing of Miss Pillow early in the year. She was a devoted friend to the School and all who knew her. Our sympathy is extended to Shirley Bennett, Flora McDonald and Margaret Stewart in the sad loss of loved ones. Congratulations go to Violet McLeod, Hilary Howey, Helen Richardson, Shirley Lang and Val Carson on their engagements. Violet and Helen have since been married, and the best wishes of the Old Collegians go to them. Jan Dahlenburg, Nancy Stewart, Muriel Hodge and Gwen Turner receive congratulations on the arrival of babes. The attendance of Old Collegians at meetings and dances this year has been disappointing, but we look forward to everyone in the future at some time putting their best foot forward to help us either by attendance at meetings or (lances. My thanks go to those who have helped to make this year of office for me such a happy one, and my special thanks to Judith and Glenys for their unfailing support to the Old Collegians, and .also for their help to me at all times.

MELBOURNE BRANCH The Melbourne Branch of the Old Collegians held two Re-unions during the year, the first on April 22nd and the second on October 24th. Unfortunately, disastrous weather marred our evening in April, but despite torrential rain, 28 girls were present. However, on October 24th, when we

THE LUCERNIAN were delighted to have Miss Pratt and representatives from Geelong Branch with us, a very successful evening was held. The 65 members present spent a happy time renewing friendships and hearing news of the activities of the Geelong Branch from the President, Audrey Gillett. An opportunity table was held at this Re-union, and was well patronised. Best wishes for a happy trip were extended to our President, Lorna Hooper (Ebbott), who, with her husband, will be leaving on an overseas tour on April 4th of next year. For the first time Melbourne Branch are having an Old Collegians Church Service. It b to be held at the Balwyn Presbyterian Church, Banool Road, Balwyn, at 7 p.m. on Sunday, November 27th, and we are hoping that it will be well attended by Old Collegians and their families. We look forward with enthusiasm to our first Re-union, in April, 1961, which will be held at the Caris Club, in McEwan House, at 8 p.m. on Monday, April 17th, and extend a cordial invitation to all Old Collegians.
