THE LUCERNIAN

Editorial

The Education Act of 1945 marked the entrance of the Federal Government into the field of tertiary education by instituting Governmental grants and Commonwealth scholarships. This year, 1964, for the first time, the Commonwealth Government has concerned itself with secondary education by giving grants to secondary schools for improving science facilities and donating Commonwealth scholarships which will be tenable at Leaving and Matriculation levels. There has been much debate over the right of the Commonwealth Government to assist in education for, according to the Federal Constitution of 1901, the States officially reserve that right for themselves. After the Second World War the Federal Government was obliged to consider education on a national basis in order to compensate returned servicemen whose education had been interrupted by war and, following this, it decided to take an active part in educating the Australian people. There is much to be said for Commonwealth Governmental assistance for it ensures a degree of uniformity in scholastic achievement in all Australian States by awarding Commonwealth scholarships at equivalent educational levels. Many schools, who find difficulty in obtaining adequate science equipment, will be greatly helped by the new science grants. The new Commonwealth scholarships to be awarded to secondary school students will be of great benefit to education in general. They will enable most pupils who desire it to obtain higher secondary education and clever pupils will not necessarily be forced to leave school after Intermediate through lack of finance. These scholarships will be awarded on the basis of external examinations taken during October of each year. These examinations are completely divorced from the educational systems of the States and are papers designed to assess the individual's degree of intelligence through comprehension and reasoning rather than his ability to memorise. These scholarships will assist many pupils in Victoria, as in all States, and it is sincerely hoped that many of those Intermediate and Leaving students from Morongo who sat for the examination will achieve successful results. Ruth Venters.

Council Notes

Council The Rev. L. W. Hatton resigned from the Council upon leaving Geelong, and his place was filled by the Rev. G. McGregor. Mr. A. Lucas, President of the Parents and Friends' Association, also joined the Council during the year. Buildings and Property The new classroom wing has been completed. This has provided additional facilities for the teaching of science and other subjects, a book room, and teaching staff common rooms, and has already materially assisted in the smooth and efficient running of the School. Our next project is the provision of additional boarding accommodation through the conversion of domestic quarters into a new dormitory. The domestic staff are now accommodated in a new house to the north-west of the dining hall. This additional boarding accommodation will be ready for first tern of 1965. The home of Mrs. Moreton, in Newtown, used as a residence for some of the

THE LUCERNIAN

teaching staff, has now passed to Morongo through the death of Mrs. Moreton, whose husband had bequeathed it to the School. Two other projects occupying the Council are the sewering of the Morongo property, and the efficient draining of the top oval.

Finance Because of rising costs, the Council was reluctantly compelled to increase fees for 1965. The increase was a modest one compared with those found necessary by many other similar schools. A review was made also of fee discounts, which were adjusted to a level which is considered more appropriate to the present circumstances.

Parents & Friends' Association

The activities of the Parents and Friends' Association have followed the usual pattern. All occasions have been well attended and a friendly atmosphere has prevailed. Once again we have received the greatest co-operation from Miss Shaw, the teaching staff, domestic staff and outside staff, without whose willing help our organisation of functions would certainly be much more difficult. During the year we have donated musical instruments which will be available for girls to use and bursaries to the value of £50 are offered to encourage pupils to learn to play these instruments. We hope that we may in this way help to foster further development in the musical life of the School. A film projector for use in the new science rooms has also been presented this year, and will help to equip adequately this important part of the School. Mr. Laird has kept us informed of the Council's building plans and other projects and we are very proud of the new buildings just completed. We would assure the Council that we are always willing to listen to any suggestion they may care to make whereby our Association can help Morongo. In contrast to the previous year the Garden Party was held in ideal weather. The attendance was splendid and also the financial result. Our thanks go to Dr. Taylor and the organisers for the work they do, but the job is made very much easier by the co-operation existing between the Auxiliaries, Old Collegians and the organising Committee. The work carried out by some of the stall holders prior to the Garden Party, is remarkable, and accounts for a great deal of the success of the day. Every year a considerable number of boarders' parents attend the Garden Party and we would like them to feel very much at home. A social evening was held early in the year to enable parents to meet the teaching staff, and welcome the newcomers. The Association still appeals to all parents of girls leaving school to donate a book to the library. Suitable books are on display at Hobbies' Day for your consideration. The annual meeting was held on 23rd April to coincide with Shakespeare's Day, and it always gives us pleasure to see the very creditable performances of scenes from Shakespeare's plays that the girls stage for our enjoyment. You will have received the third copy of the Bell Post Bulletin by now, and from comments received, it would appear to be fulfilling a need. Our thanks go to Mr. Bill Hedley for his work as Editor.

THE LUCERNIAN and our President, Mr. Austin Lucas, for so ably assisting him. If at any time anyone has information concerning Morongo which they feel would be of interest, please contact Mr. Hedley. This is a News Letter in which we will try to cover most activities in connection with the School, and a steady supply of news will ensure continued successful editions. We would welcome your attendance at any of our meetings which are held from time to time at the Kindergarten in Elizabeth Street. Gwen Blakiston, Hon. Secretary.

Senior Auxiliary

It is with pleasure that I preseul the report of the Afternoon Auxiliary of the Parents and Friends' Association (senior group), for 1963-64. We continue to Meet on the fourth Tuesday of the month in the McPhillimy Hall, St. George's Church, Latrobe Terrace, at 2 p.m., and will be very pleased to welcome new members, both mothers and friends of the School. We hope any members leaving the Junior Auxiliary will continue to take an active interest by joining the Senior Group. We have had a very enjoyable and successful year. Syllabus items included a visit to Dame Mabel Brookes' home and Como, two morning coffee parties, a hair tinting demonstration, a musical afternoon, and a most interesting address by Miss Shaw. Our members worked very enthusiastically for the annual Garden Party, which as usual, was a great success both socially and financially. We are pleased to be able to help the School with a gift of a television set and traymobile for the lecture room, also two sets of scales for the Domestic Science Room. Our new office-bearers have been elected and are as follows: President, Mrs. M. Richardson; Vice-President, Mrs. B. Campbell; Secretary, Mrs. J. Clutterbuck; Assistant Secretary, Mrs. G. McDonald; Treasurer, Mrs. F. Payne, and a Committee of six members. On behalf of the Auxiliary may I thank Miss Shaw and members of the staff for their interest and co-operation, also, a very sincere thank you to Mrs Snibson who has acted in the capacity of Secretary for two years and President for one year, and to all. members of the Committee for their willing help at all times. Elsie Clutterbuck, Hon. Secretary.

Junior Auxiliary

A very happy atmosphere has predominated al all our meetings which have been fairly well attended, and we hope this will encourage members to continue their association with the Auxiliary. With Mrs. C. Cooke as President, assisted by Vice-Presidents Mrs. F. R. Herd and Mrs. I. R. Vaughan; Secretary, Mrs. R. V. Pavia; Treasurer, Mrs. B. R. Wardle, and seven members of Committee, the year opened with a social afternoon. It was very pleasing to see about 70 mothers present at the evening, held at Kirrewur Court, early in March to meet the staff of the Junior School socially.

THE LUCERNIAN

Following a very successful S.E.C. cooking demonstration to which members invited guests, a number of meetings were held at different venues from the usual one at McPhillimy Hall, St. George's Church. These included Coombe Downe Galleries, the Bowl-o-inatic, and in the dining room of the Junior School when we had the pleasure of being addressed by Miss Shaw. We then had a textile and fabric display and demonstration and a talk on gems, both particularly interesting subjects to women. Again the Auxiliary combined with the Parents and Friends' Association, Old Collegians' Association and the Senior Auxiliary for the Garden Fete held in March — we had our own successful cake stall and assisted on other stalls. Our efforts were rewarded by a share of £250 from the proceeds. Part of this money has been spent in supplying blinds for each classroom at the Junior School, purchasing a new boat swing for the Nursery School, having cupboards made to hold library books in two of the classrooms, and additional sets of cuisinaire. I am sure members would like to express their appreciation to Miss Shaw for her interest in the Auxiliary, and to Miss Courtney and Junior School staff for their co-operation and interest taken in our children. Our thanks to members of the committee who during the year have arranged flowers for each meeting, sent out notices of meetings and cards of good wishes to members at various times and prepared press notices. Finally to our President, Mrs. Cooke, we extend our sincere thanks and appreciation for her guidance, thoughts and efforts during her term of office these last two years. Eathorne Pavia, Hon. Secretary.

School Notes

At our first Assembly, held on 12th February, Miss Shaw welcomed Miss Bell, Miss Collins, Miss de Ferranti, Miss Lawn, Miss Rushbrooke, Miss Stanley, Miss Stubbs, Mrs. McKinnon and Miss McWilliam to the staff, and the new girls to the School. St. Hilda's, a new combined Presbyterian and Methodist Women's College, was opened at the Melbourne University this year. We are proud that. Susan Bickford won a residential scholarship and that Morongo had eight of its original students. We hope that there will always be a large representation of Morongo girls at St. Hilda's. Once again this year our thanks go to the School Council for providing us with a wonderful new wing to the School, completing the quadrangle. The Council is untiring in its efforts to improve the School, and we find that we hardly finish thanking them for one building than they have planned something else. We are still admiring the new staff rooms, book room, laboratory, lecture room, and form rooms, and have now heard that the library is to be enlarged in the holidays. As well as this, a residence for the domestic staff has been built, and renovations are being made to the boarding house. We do appreciate everything the Council does for us.

THE LUCERNIAN

Junior School Notes

This has been a period of co-operation and happiness in the Junior School. The children and staff have worked pleasantly together, and parents have given much assistance. Owing to the efforts of the Junior Auxiliary the School has gained much to benefit the girls. At the Nursery, the little ones gain much pleasure from the installation of a new swing; and in the Junior School, the benefit of the new libraries and the book cases cannot be estimated. The addition of blinds for all rooms, and an extra dozen boxes of cuisenaire rods are most helpful. The Nursery children have gained hours of pleasure from the gift of two cars from a very generous family. We thank them sincerely. After many months, we are still unaware of the donor of a lovely tricylce, which was left at the Nursery. However, we are most grateful. During the first term, on 28th April, the Junior Sports were conducted. The junior champion was Anne Chirnside, with Jennifer Torode as runner-up. We would like to draw the attention of parents to a change in the teaching of reading to beginners next year, and to ask for their co-operation in this matter. Though the method will be unknown to parents, we firmly believe that it will be an improvement in assisting children to learn speedily. We are confident that parents would wish any change which would be for the good of the children, and staff members are looking forward to the experience. In conclusion, the staff would like to thank all those parents who have assisted the School in an individual capacity, and given of their time, as well as all others who work through the Junior Auxiliary.

Head Prefect's Notes

The Prefects for 1964 were: Vivienne Cumming, Elizabeth Eaton (Head Prefect), Dianne Ekstedt, Kathrin Maconachie, Vivien Notman, Anna Shamblin and Ann Thwaites. The Deputy Prefects were: Elizabeth Davies, Meredith Goding, Jennifer Haines, Joan Hair, Joan Ingpen, Susan McColl, Kaye McMiken, Anne Seward, Pauline Simson and Ruth Spalding. The induction of the Prefects took place on Thursday, 20th February at a service conducted by the School Chaplain, the Rev. K. MacLean. On 7th April Miss Shaw and I were present at a luncheon at St. David's, as the guests of the Presbyterian Women's Missionary Union. Once again Morongo took part in the Annual Commonwealth Youth Sunday march, but this year all the young people assembled at the water front before marching to church. The Prefects marched at the head of the School, and I took part in the service held at Wesley. Ann Thwaites and I attended a dinner given by the West Geelong Rotary Club on Thursday, 27th August. On the first Saturday in the second term we held our School Dance, and during the year, the prefects have enjoyed attending dances at the Hermitage, the Geelong College, and the Geelong Grammar School.

THE LUCERNIAN

The annual School Church Service was held at St. David's, on Sunday, 25th October. The service was conducted by the Rev. K. McLean, and the address given by the Rev. F. H. Camp. The offering was taken up by the prefects and Vivienne Cumming and I read the lessons. The Prefects have been invited by the Old Collegians to attend the Annual Re-union at the School on 14th November. The life of the Prefects is not restricted to official functions, neither are we quite as lazy as those observing us reclining in the prefects' room sipping coffee might suspect. Somewhere in between the nasty people who growl when they meet girls not wearing complete uniform in town and the " stupid seven " who beat (or were they beaten by?) the staff when they played them at basketball, and the mad contingent who painted the prefects' room, are ordinary Matriculation students trying to pass their examinations. I would like to thank not only the prefects and deputy prefects, but all the girls, for making our year in office such a happy one, and I know that they join with me in thanking Miss Shaw, Miss Sutherland, and all the members of the staff, for all the help and guidance they have given us, not only in our work, but in all spheres of our school life. We have appreciated their interest, and the time they have given to us.

Miss Parkinson

We were very sorry to hear that Miss Parkinson, who is known and loved by so many boarders, is leaving us at the end of the year. Miss Parkinson came from Melbourne twenty-one years ago to become our House Mistress and has carefully tended to all our worries ever since. At the beginning of each year she has always welcomed us back to School with a cheery smile, and has comforted the new boarders, especially juniors, when they have felt a little lost and lonely in their new surroundings. Although she has been mainly concerned with the Juniors, she has always listened patiently to the Seniors who have gone to her with their various worries. When boarders think of "Morongo " they always associate Miss Parkinson with it and during her many years here she has made many friends, Whenever those boarders who have now left return to " Morongo," they always make a point of going to see Miss Parkinson, which shows that although they may have at one time condemned her for putting their belongings in pound and giving debits, they have not forgotten all she did for them. Our thanks are extended to Miss Parkinson for the many things she has done for us in such a kindly and affectionate manner. We wish her many years of happy retirement and our thoughts will always be with her wherever she goes.

Church Report

The boarders attended St. David's and the Anglican members attended St. John's Church. This year the boarders sang a portion of the Story of the Cross along with the choir and the congregation. Commonwealth Youth Sunday was held on 3rd May and Morongo took part in the march and later attended Wesley Church.

THE LUCERNIAN Mr. K. MacLean held confirmation classes during the first term and on 7th June a special confirmation service was held. The following girls were admitted into full Church membership: Joy Batters, Barbara Brewster, Robyn Galloway, Prudence Hewitt, Jennifer Lowing, Jillianne McGregor, Heather McQuinn, Jennifer Stephens, Joan Sutherland, Jillian Swinton and Barbara Wotherspoon. On 18th October Rennie Potter, Sally Dorman, Elizabeth Wettenhall and Rosemary Dohle are being confirmed at St. John's Church. Our School Service, is to be held on 25th October. The Boarders' Choir will sing " Examine Me, 0 Lord." The address is being given by Rev. F. H. Camp. Pauline Simson.

Ardens House Report

Harris House Report

Motto: "Seek Wisdom." The Ardens girls have shown more enthusiasm and understanding of our motto this year. In first term, after concentrated training, Ardens won the swimming sports for the third time in succession, and we congratulate the champions, ours being Anne Clutterbuck, Elizabeth Wright, Cheryle Cooper and Elizabeth Davies. In the athletic sports, Lawson won after much hard training, but we managed third place and our champions were Elizabeth Davies and Judith Downey. We had our social at the end of first term and it consisted of sport, barbecues and short sketches. We had all the houses together this year, as there were only two permanent barbecues. The whole evening was a great success for all the houses. During the winter term, inter-house matches were played with enthusiasm, and they resulted in Roslyn winning both the basketball and hockey. The tennis and baseball matches are yet to be played. I would like to thank Kaye McMiken, our sports captain, who has helped me in all the house matters. My thanks also go to the Ardens staff who have shown interest in all the house activities. Kaye and I would like to thank all the Ardens girls who have given us their support and co-operation, and we hope that next year's captain and sports captain will receive the same support. Finally, to those leaving I wish the best of luck in all their acitivities and to those returning I leave the reminder " Seek Wisdom." Elizabeth Davies.

"Not Failure, but Low Aim is Crime." This year has not been an outstanding success for Harris, yet I feel that the enthusiasm of many of the house members will reward them in the future years of Harris. The first major sporting event of the year, was the swimming sports. Although we only managed to come third, we were by no means disgraced. Our sincere congratulations go to our betters, Ardens, for their success in winning the Ena Miller Shield, and to all champions, including our own Jane Taylor who was the subjunior champion, and Susan McIntyre who came second to the senior champion, Elizabeth Davies.

THE LUCERNIAN

Again, we were unsuccessful in the athletic sports, and we congratulate Lawson for winning the Margaret Shannon Memorial Cup. However, in true Harris tradition, we once again excelled in the marching, and I hope that next year Harris can prove successful in other events. I feel that during the year, Harris girls have competed keenly against other Houses in all matches. Even though results were sometimes disappointing, the matches were thoroughly enjoyed by all. We have held two House Socials this year, which were well-attended and most successful. Our first social welcomed our new members, and introduced them to the customs and standards of Harris House. Our recent social in which all the Houses joined together for a barbecue (which was followed by a rather comical concert performed by the girls) had a dual purpose. It was part of a programme to sponsor a scholarship for an aboriginal girl, and also, it was a means of awakening house spirit, which seemed to be slackening among many members in the houses. However, I feel we were successful in both respects. On behalf of the girls I would like to thank our loyal members of staff for their keen interest and guidance throughout the year. In particular, I would like to thank our sports captain, Pamela Bartlett, for the assistance she has given me, and for the valuable work she has done for the house. We would both like to thank the girls for their unfailing support and co-operation they have given us during the year. To those returning in 1965, we wish a very successful year, and hope that every girl will give her best to her house, bearing in mind, that " Not Failure, but Low Aim is Crime." Susan McColl, House Captain.

Lawson House Report

" To Strive, to Seek, to Find and Not to Yield." Lawson has had mixed success this year, and I feel that the standard of work, sport and conduct could be higher, if more interest was shown in these affairs. We congratulate Ardens on winning the swimming sports, and once again, Lawson occupied second place. We were fortunate in winning the athletic sports by a narrow margin from Roslyn, and the time and enthusiasm put into training showed good results. We congratulate our champions: Anne Greville and Barbara Brewster, intermediate champion and runner-up respectively; Anthea Brien, junior runner-up, and Lyn Crellin, sub-junior champion. House socials in the form of sport, followed by a barbecue and concert, were a great success at the conclusion of Term I. This year we have been raising money for a scholarship for an aboriginal girl and a large amount of money resulted from a barbecue and concert held in Term II.

THE LUCERNIAN On behalf of the house, I should like to thank our members of staff, and also Miss Shaw, for their consistent interest and guidance throughout the year. I would also like to wish Mrs. Reilly (formerly Miss Thomson), every happiness in her married life. I should like to thank all the girls, and especially Rosemary Stewart, our sports captain, who has been such a wonderful help to me this year. We wish the girls who are leaving every success in the future and the best of luck to Lawson next year and in the years to come. Anna Shamblin.

Roslyn House Report

Sports Report

"We Are Judged by Our Deeds." Keen house spirit has been shown by most members of Roslyn and the results have been pleasing. However, our success in the classroom has been marred by constantly recurring debits and it is to be hoped that each girl will co-operate in future. On 12th March the swimming sports were held at Lara. The results were not in our favour, and our congratulations go to both Ardens and the individual champions. We were more successful in the athletic sports, but were narrowly defeated by Lawson. The most pleasing thing, however, was the keenness shown by the House both in the training beforehand and the enthusiasm on the actual day. House basketball and hockey matches were played during second term. We were fortunate in winning both senior shields. I am sure the same house spirit will be shown in the baseball and tennis matches to be played this term. We have had two House Socials this year, on 20th March and 21st August and they were both enjoyed by everyone. The second one was held in conjunction with a House Social Service Campaign to raise money for an aboriginal fund. This term a new system of ground tidiness has been introduced. Each House tidies the grounds for a week and the marks allotted are added to the final total. I would like to thank Deanne Jones, our sports captain, who has organised all the sporting activities so well. Her unfailing encouragement has been greatly appreciated. The staff members have also been most willing to help. I hope that both those leaving and returning will have success in future years and I leave my best wishes with Roslyn. Pauline Simson. Miss de Ferranti, Miss Ockleston (who left at the beginning of second term), and Miss Park have tried to promote a keener interest in sport this year. Morongo has competed in more inter-school activites and because of this extra competition, the standard is improving. In the association matches many teams have been successful in winning their premiership: junior and both senior tennis, junior and senior hockey, and junior basketball teams. During first term the annual swimming and athletics sports were held and won by Ardens and Lawson respectively.

THE LUCERNIAN

The swimming teams also competed in both the Geelong and Melbourne All Schools Carnival and were successful in gaining many places. On fete day a few girls from each form gave a vaulting display; life-saving classes again took place and many girls received awards. Association hockey and basketball matches were the main activities in second term but social, house and form matches were also played. Most senior hockey and basketball girls sat for the State Umpire's Examination this year; ten basketball and three hockey girls obtained A grade results. At the end of the term School colours were awarded to: Barbara Wotherspoon, Glenda Turnbull, Rosemary Stewart, Joy Speers and Dianne Ekstedt. This term, for the first time, girls interested in athletics competed in both the Geelong and Melbourne All Schools Carnival, and are to be congratulated on gaining some places. At present inter-house baseball and tennis matches are being played and the School tennis championships are in full swing. Trampoline championships are to be held, and the finals of these combined with folk dancing by junior forms will provide the display for Open Day. At the beginning of the year, the Senior Auxiliary kindly gave us a trampoline which has been placed in the gym.; we thank them very much. It has been tremendously popular especially among the younger girls. Miss de Ferranti has increased the interest in athletics by introducing the javelin and discus throws and shot put. There has been no afternoon sport for Intermediates, Leaving and Matriculation this year, instead a lesson during school time was arranged for everyone. Finally, I would like to thank Miss de Ferranti, Miss Ockleston and Miss Park and the House sports captains for all they have done, and also the ground staff who are always willing to prepare the ovals and courts for our use. Dianne Ekstedt_

Tennis Report

This year has been a most successful one for Morongo in tennis. The first senior team won their third successive premiership and the second senior team and junior first team both won their sections. The following girls are to be congratulated on being chosen for the first senior team: Helen Carlile, Rosemary Stewart (captain), Helen Hill, Meredith Goding (vice-captain), Barbara Brewster, Barbara Guthrie, Pamela Bartlett and Jillian Bartlett. This year the senior team gained experience by playing with and against the Geelong College teams. A social match was played against Clyde during first term. On the second Saturday of third term the annual Morongo Hermitage - Geelong College tennis tournament was held. Although Morongo was not represented in the finals Bronwyn Kilsby, Margaret Harrison and their partners are to be congratulated on reaching the semi-finals. We would all like to thank Mr. Lester, of Geelong College, for arranging this enjoyable tournament. The School tennis championships are being keenly contested at the moment.

THE LUCERNIAN We were sorry to lose Mr. Dickinson as our tennis coach, owing to illness in first term. Since then we have had three other coaches: Mr. Trethowan, Mr. Mason and Mr. Sleeman, who is our present coach. I would like to thank all these coaches and Miss de Ferranti for their help throughout the year and, also Miss Botterill for arranging the tennis lessons. To next year's tennis team I wish the very best of luck. RoSemary Stewart.

Athletics Report

This year we held the finals of the field events on Saturday morning to avoid rushing the track events, ball games and marching in the afternoon. The results were: Lawson, who won the Margaret Shannon Memorial Cup; followed by Roslyn, Ardens and Harris.

On the 26th September, some of the girls attended the Geelong All Schools Championships at the Landy Oval, Corio, and many of them managed to gain places. The Girls Combined Public Schools' Sports are being held in Melbourne on 17th October, and several of our better athletes are training hard for them. Miss de Ferranti has been holding training sessions one or two afternoons a week, and she has also introduced discus and javelin throwing, about which many of the girls are very enthusiastic. Finally we would like to thank Miss Ockkeston, whom we were very sorry to see leave, Miss Park and Miss de Ferranti, for their continued interest and advice and we also appreciate the work done by the men in marking and preparing the oval for the sports. Elizabeth Davies.

THE LUCERNIAN

We would like to thank Miss de Ferranti and also Miss Ockleston, whom we were sorry to see leave at the beginning of second term, for their help in training before the sports and their encouragement at the other functions in which we competed. Elizabeth Davies.

Basketball Report

Hockey Report, 1964

We were all sorry to lose Miss Ockleston as coach at the beginning of the season. Miss Lawn and Miss Stubbs kindly offered to coach the senior and junior teams and we welcomed Miss Park to coach the sub-juniors. In the Association matches the seniors and sub-juniors, although keen to do well, were not very successful. The Junior A, on the other hand was a very enthusiastic team and succeeded in winning We played all their matches and so won their premiership. social matches against Clyde, Lauriston, Clonard and Belmont High School, and it was pleasing to see that the seniors played better in these matches. On 17th July, senior basketball girls sat for the State Umpires' Examination and as a result 10 girls are A-grade umpires. Inter-house matches were played and resulted in Roslyn winning the Margaret Shannon Cup. Intermediate A were the premiers in the inter-form matches. Finally, I would like to thank Miss Park, Miss Stubbs and Miss Lawn for their help and interest, and to next year's teams the best of luck for a successful season. Dianne Ekstedt. It was pleasing to see so many hockey enthusiasts trying for teams this season. The following girls are to be congratulated on their inclusion in the School team: Janine Martin, Patricia Malloch, Rosemary Stewart, Glenda Turnbull, Jennifer Moles, Julie Goldsworthy, Rosemary Lalor, Dierdre Permezel, Fiona MacAdie, Helen Lalor and Anne Greville. 1964 proved to be a most successful season. All teams played with determination and braved bruises and rough weather with the result that Morongo's hockey has reached an extremely high standard. In our association we defeated P.L.C., M L C and The Hermitage, but were most unfortunate to lose our last and most vital match to M.C.E.G.G.S. by one goal. Our congratulations go to Merton Hall for their fine display of hockey. The social matches also played during the term against Geelong Teachers' College, Belmont High School, Geelong College, Lauriston, Clyde and our own staff members, proved both beneficial and a lot of fun. Sally Odgers and Barbara Guthrie led the Junior A to victory, while our Senior and Junior B teams put up very fine performances. Rosemary Stewart shone at the junior hockey trials at Royal Park in July and was chosen as a member of the Victorian No. 2 XI which played in the interstate tournament in Adelaide during September. Our successes were not all confined to the field. Helen Lalor, Patricia Malloch and Anne Greville showed their knowledge

THE LUCERNIAN of the game in gaining State A passes in the annual Umpires' Examinations. This year Roslyn House won the Ruth McMillan Shield for hockey and Intermediate P won the inter-form cup. All girls join with me in thanking Miss de Ferranti, Miss Dunn, Miss Lewis and our vice-captain, Patricia Malloch, for their encouraging assistance throughout the season. In closing I wish to thank all fellow team mates for their co-operation during the season, and to those returning, best results are obtained by consistent practice. Dierdre Permezel.

Baseball Report

A greater enthusiasm and interest for baseball was shown this year with an increased number of girls trying for teams. Practices were held regularly on Monday and Thursday afternoons and often on Tuesday and Thursday mornings before school. We still lack a really fast pitcher. However, the general standard of play has improved and the teams were more successful than usual. I would like to thank the day girls' parents for providing the transport for extra practices, especially Mr. Davies from Geelong College, who gave us much-appreciated advice on methods of training and playing. Social matches are always helpful, but this year we only played one again Clyde. We had a very enjoyable day at Woodend, with all but one of our teams winning. Inter-house matches are being played this term. On behalf of all the baseball teams I would like to thank Miss Ockleston for her help and encouragement throughout the season and we wish the teams of 1965 every success. Dianne Ekstedt.

Swimming Sports: Ardens. Athletic Sports: Lawson. Basketball: Senior, Roslyn; Junior, Lawson. Hockey: Senior, Roslyn; Junior, Harris and Roslyn. At lunch-time every Monday Forum meetings were held. These were attended by the prefects, house representatives and form captains, and were presided over by Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland. The purpose of these meetings was to discuss school affairs such as conduct, ground tidiness and social activities, and to allow the girls to play a part in the administration of the school. Our thanks go to Miss Shaw and Miss Sutherland for their continued interest and support throughout the year and to the girls who helped to make Forum a success. Vivienne Cumming. Music has once again played a large part in the life of the boarders, under the direction of the Music Club, led by Miss Wadelton and the music staff. The committee this year consisted of Vivien Notman, Rosemary Stewart, Elizabeth Davies, Rosemary Lalor, Kaye McMiken, Pauline Simson, Jennifer Haines and Jennifer King. The six celebrity concerts held during the year, in Geelong, have been well-attended by many of the boarders. We were fortunate to hear the Victorian Sympthony Orchestra on two occasions under the direction of Georges Tzipine, the French conductor. We also heard Ingrid Haebler, a Viennese pianist; John Ogden, a British pianist; Uto Ughi, an Italian violinist, and the French baritone, Gerard Souzay. A well-known Geelong photographer, Robert Pockley, was the guest at the first Music Club meeting held during May. Mr. Pockley showed many very interesting and educational slides of England and Europe. On 9th May, fifteen girls from the School choir were invited to lead the singing at the Old Collegians Service held at North Balwyn. The anthem we sang there was " Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring." Our second Music Club meeting was held in June, when a very entertaining evening was given by baritone Morris Williams. Several College boys and day girls were present at this meeting, as Mr. Williams had been one of the soloists in the College-Morongo production of " The Messiah " last year. Later in the same month, 21st June, members of the boarders and junior choirs were invited to lead the singing with the Grammar School Choir at the opening of the newly-constructed Corio Shire Centenary Hall, at Norlane. The highlight of second term came with the production of Smetana's comic opera, " The Bartered Bride," by the combined choirs of College and Morongo in the Plaza Theatre. Many hours of practice were put into this opera especially by the soloists and they, together with the chorus, are to be congratulated on its success. We thank Miss Blowes, Mr. Martin and Mr. Barley for their patience with us, and the boarders would especially like to thank Miss Shaw for driving us to each practice.

THE LUCERNIAN The last Sunday of second term meant doomsday for the boarders when, after weeks of practice, the annual House Music Competitions were held, judged by Mr. Larson from Geelong Teachers' College. Neilson and Hearne tied for victory in the choral section. In the pianoforte section our congratulations go to Judith Matheson, of Hearne, for winning the junior, Janne Dickson of McPhee who won the intermediate, and Carole McKenzie of David, the senior section. After the various totals had been added up, Neilson was successful in winning the competitions, followed by Hearne, McPhee and David. Mr. Robert Heagney gave a most enjoyable piano recital at our first Music Club meeting of third term, on 3rd October. Our remaining meeting is the annual " birthday party," and we thank Miss Wadelton very much for her generosity in arranging this for us. The Public Music Examinations were held on Monday and Tuesday, 19th and 20th October, and we congratulate the girls on their pleasing results. A combined musical evening for Morongo, Geelong College, Hermitage and Geelong Grammar choirs will be held in Geelong College on 23rd October. Sunday, 25th October is the date of the School service, and the boarders' choir will sing the anthem, Examine Me, 0 Lord." On the last Sunday of term the boarders' and junior choirs will combine to present a Christmas cantata - " A Saviour Born." I would like to thank Miss Blowes, Miss Wadelton and the music staff for the interest they have taken in our musical activities throughout the year, and wish good luck to the Music Club committee, next year. Jennifer King.

Art Report Friday, 6th March—

Time Out

Intermediate and Matriculation girls were taken (much to their delight ), to the Melbourne National Gallery where we were given a lecture on the French Impressionists and the periods of art we are studying this year.

Saturday, 9th May— Matriculation art students went to the Melbourne Art Gallery where we had a close look at some examples of Australian art and pop art.

Friday, 9th October— Again to the National Gallery where this time we heard a lecture on Baroque Mannerist and Renaissance painting and also saw an exhibition of Contemporary Australian art including some well known paintings, among them " Moody's Pub." Other artists represented were Sidney Nolan, Arthur Boyd, Leonard French, We later saw an Lawrence Daws, John Brack and Dickerson. exhibition of pottery and non-objective painting by David Keyes at the Argus Gallery.

Matriculation is trying to convince Miss Rushbrooke that a trip to the Artists' Colony would be more educational than she realises . . . .

What Are Exhibitions Like?

Friday Night, 30th October— Matriculation and Leaving Art Students attended an inspiring lecture and films at the Geelong Art Gallery. Mr. D. Webb gave us, and members of the Rotary Club, an enlightening criticism on several paintings displayed in the " Geelong Advertiser " Art Prize Exhibition. We were reminded of the changing times, and of the fact that we do not like cars ten or twenty years old, therefore why do we admire traditional art? We all appreciate last night's roast served as a different dish, instead of the same as the previous meal; so why is it we cannot appreciate the 20th century artist who presents an inquiring sensitive painting from an old theme? Three films conveyed the skill of Van Gogh, Sidney Nolan and William Dobell. Van Gogh's dynamic technique shows well the torture in his mind.

THE LUCERNIAN Through Dobell's portraits we see satire, compassion, humour, versatility and primitiveness; sensational colours overlaid till we see effigies of ourselves. In contrast there is Nolan's primitivism of convict escapees, and the two Ned Kelly series of early Australian history. It is better to gaze on a scene of daily life or to define the colours, shapes and lines of the artist's thoughts, his emotions, his secrets, and the story he is telling. Painting is essentially dialogue without words — do you reject it?

Exhibitions

During the year Morongo has been well represented at several exhibitions including the " Sun " Youth Art Show, the Geelong Secondary Schools' Art Exhibition and the Geelong Show. Exhibitors included Joan Ingpen, Ruth Spalding, Elizabeth Honey, Gina Blau, Michele Miles, Alison Randle, Julie Goldsworthy, Judith Bayliss, Carol Feagan, Robyn McAllister, Mary Debrett, Rosalind Fagg, Julie Stray, G. Sutherland, J. Moore and H. McCowan. During the year students staged an impromptu exhibition in aid of the Aboriginal Fund.

Graphic Art

Some experiments which were tried this year . . . usually they were successful. Japanese Water Colours — various effects were achieved with blotting paper and varnish. Paper Sculpture — Some successful work was done by Elizabeth Honey, which aroused much interest both at school and at the Secondary Schools' Exhibition. Straw Construction — Jill Swinton's three-dimensional exercise using formal balance. Painting on velvet. Batik Work — using dye and wax on fabric. Lino. Cuts — a slow if not satisfying method of relief printing. Wood Cuts — printing on paper or fabric. Mobiles — a form of sculpture invented by Calder in 1932. It essentially consists of three-dimensional shapes connected by wires, each part should revolve or move, giving an ever changing sequence of planes, solids and colours in three-dimensional form. The SubIntermediate experimented with this method.

THE LUCERNIAN

Action Painting

The basic presumption is that the unconscious will take over and produce a work of art. This technique is claimed to go back to Leonardo who suggested using stains on walls as a starting point for designing; the essential difference is that he used the method solely as a means of stimulating the creative imagination and not as an end in itself. Action painting should not be confused with the intellectual type of abstract art in which some thought is necessary. One bright, sunny day the Matriculation girls tried some odd exercising in the cartway. Using an assortment of paint, brushes, a roller and knives and a sheet of fibro-cement, work began on an action painting. After alternately pouring and throwing on all the paint we had, we discovered that bare feet and an odd hand print added considerably to the effect. We also stuck on old lids and newspaper and threw on wood shavings. After naming, this work of "art" stood for a few short hours outside the Art Room. However, by a stroke of luck a gust of wind blew the masterpice on to the asphalt, smashing it into six beautifully jagged pieces which were artistically placed among the roses. Lino. cuts throughout by: J. Stray, E. Honey, J. Ingpen, G. Blau.

THE LUCERNIAN

" The Bartered Bride "

This year the School Choir combined with the Geelong College Choir in the production of Frederic Smetana's opera, " The Bartered Bride," at the Plaza Theatre, on the 17th and 18th of August. Both performances were staged before capacity audiences and were very successful. The two schools commenced rehearsals towards the end of first term, under the direction of Miss Blowes and Mr. Martin, and combined rehearsals began a few weeks later. The opera comprises three acts. The first act is set in a Bohemian village square on the afternoon of the Patron Saints' Day. After a chorus of villagers has passed by, Marenka and Jenik (who has been away for some time) sing of their love. However, Kecal, the village marriage-broker, has arranged with Marenka's parents, Krusina and Ludmila, that she will marry Vasek, the stuttering half-witted son of Micha's second wife, Hata. Marenka objects.. In the second act, the men of the village, Kecal and Jenik are at the inn singing of the joys of ale, money and love respectively. Meanwhile, Vasek is wandering along by himself, when Marenka appears; pretending to be someone else, she gets him to promise not to bother any further about that Marenka girl, " who will play you false." About the same time, Kecal has found Jenik and bribed him to disappear quietly. Jenik agrees, on condition that Marenka only marries willingly the eldest son of Micha and no-one else. The villagers think this action of Jenik's scandalous. A travelling circus arrives at the village in act three, and Vasek, who has been mooning around, is dragged in by Esmeralda and the manager to wear the bearhide, as the regular performer is drunk. Vasek refuses to marry Marenka, fearing that she will poison him, but agrees to do so when he discovers that the pretty girl who warned him is Marenka herself. Marenka has learnt of Jenik's apparent unfaithfulness and admonishes him, although he tries to reassure her that all will be well. Hata and Micha recognise Jenik as the son of Micha's first wife and thus Jenik claims Marenka for his bride. Kecal is thwarted and Vasek ruins his chances by appearing in the bear's hide and causing a panic. Finally, the parents bestow their blessings on Marenka and Jenik. The principal cast was as follows: Krusina, a peasant, Harvey Crane; Ludmila, his wife, Carole McKenzie; Marenka, their daughter, Cecily Moreton; Micha, a peasant, Roger Cumming; Hata, his second wife, Julie Cowperthwaite; Vasek, her son, Ian Borthwick; Jenik, son of Micha's first wife, Archie McLeish; Kecal, village marriage-broker, David Wilson; manager of the circus, Timothy Orchard; Esmeralda, a dancer, Elizabeth Davies; The Indian, John McLean. Cecily Moreton, as Marenka, the heroine, had a strong soprano voice and carried off a very taxing role remarkably well. Archie McLeish, who portrayed Jenik, the hero, displayed a light but pleasing tenor voice especially in his rendering of " How Could I Ever Dream." David Wilson in the role of Kecal, played an

THE LUCERNIAN extremely effective marriage-broker, and Ian Borthwick as the half-wit Vasek displayed fine acting, and added a touch of pathos to the opera in his unrequited love of Marenka. The scenery coupled with the brilliantly coloured costumes, which were spectacular throughout, particularly in the dancing, was excellent. Some of the finest scenes in the opera were, the opening scene, the circus scene which was the result of much work on the part of the College gymnasts and the finale of act I, where the cast danced a polka in the village square. Although intonation was not always perfect, on the whole, the singing was good, and all who took part are to be congraulated. Our thanks go to Miss Blowes, and Mr. Martin, for their untiring efforts and patience during rehearsals and productions, to the Geelong Symphony Orchestra led by Mr. A. Artingstall, without which the production would not have been possible, to the producer Mr. Barley, Mr. Davies who trained the gymnasts, Mr. Webb and all the stage staff for their work behind the scenes, to the make-up experts, to various members of staff and parents for their help in providing costumes, and finally to all members of the cast for giving up so much valuable time for rehearsals and the two productions. On Saturday, 3rd October, a reunion was held for all participants in the opera, at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Reid. After the evening, which took the form of a barbecue dance, Roger Cumming warmly thanked our host and hostess and everyone agreed that we had all had a good time. Michele Payne and Joan Hair.

Dramatic Club Report

This year the School Play had to be postponed until 22nd October because of the opera, " The Bartered Bride." The play was titled " The Laughter of Fools," and it told the story of a family who are trying to get their daughter married to a wealthy gentleman, whom the son introduces to the family. Things turn out the wrong way as he falls in love with the family's poor cousin. The cast was as follows: Colonel John Greig, Sally Dorman; Mrs. Greig, Jeanette Watts; Mabel Greig, Geraldine Fitz-Patrick; Bertie Greig, Judith Matheson; Elizabeth (a maid), Pamela Wightman; Doris Henley, Heather McLennan; Captain Vidal, Susan EcclesSmith; Hubert Hughes, Pauline Day; Nuttall, Robyn Ormrod; Plunket, Ann Bishop. The attendance at this year's School Play was not as it should have been, and we hope that next year the School will support us much better. We sincerely thank Miss Apted for her patience during the production of the play, which took many hours of hard work, and we wish her every success in the years to come. S. Eccles-Smith.

French Report

This year, by recommendation of Miss Botterill, we have been provided with the excellent series of " Linguaphone " records. The girls have found these of valuable assistance and very interesting. Numerous French books have been added to the Library to serve as supplementary reading.

THE LUCERNIAN

On Wednesday, 15th July, Miss Botterill accompanied the Matriculation, Leaving and Intermediate French classes to the French films " Mon Oncle," and " Le Ballon Rouge." Girls from sub-Intermediate up to Matriculation participated in the Alliance Francaise Examinations on 15th August at Belmont High School. The efforts of Miss Botterill and Miss Evans, in preparing the girls have been greatly appreciated. On Friday, 18th September, Miss Botterill took the Matriculation and Leaving girls to the French All Schools Night at Melbourne University. The programme was entertaining and instructive to all those who attended. Finally we wish to thank Miss Botterill and Miss Evans for their unfailing interest and encouragement throughout the year, especially in preparing us for the Public Examinations. Je souhaite "bonne chance" a toutes les jeunes fines qui vont revenir Panne prochaine, et rappelez-vous que celles qui travaillent tres dur, obtiendront de bons resultats. Jill Tomkins.

Library Report

Throughout this year we have continued to enjoy to the full, the extended facilites of the library, with both Leaving and Matriculation girls using it in study periods. We have added 125 junior non-fiction books and 219 senior to the library, with 291 junior fiction and 67 senior. We have received many donations of books from the girls, teachers and parents and friends, and for these gifts I would like to thank you very much. Towards the end of first term, we held a meeting in the library at which Mr. C. P. Billot, the Regional Librarian spoke about the history of libraries, and showed us a film of the Geelong Bookmobile in action. This meeting was attended by boys from both Geelong College and Geelong Grammar School, and was very successful. From Mr. Billot, we learned that tape-recordings were being made of books, and being sent to Grace McKellar House for the old people to listen to, and several girls have recorded stories at the Library for this purpose. At the beginning of second term, the Library Committee, and Mrs. Clarke and Mrs. Cowperthwaite attended a meeting at the Geelong Regional Library, where a visiting American librarian, Professor S. Fenwick spoke about teen-age literary tastes and how they could be catered for. The following morning she paid a visit to our library, before moving on to the College. On the evening of the 9th of October, there was a library meeting at Geelong Grammar School, at which the Library Committee was present. Each boy spoke for four minutes on a topic of Australian history, illustrating his points with references to books in the School's very creditable collection of Australian books. This evening was enjoyed by all. From half-way through second term, Mrs. Clarke has been working as full-time librarian instead of her previous three days a week. She has conducted library classes for the juniors, and has covered and classified all our new books, and the library has benefitted greatly from her work. To increase efficiency, we have decided to dispense

THE LUCERNIAN with individual cards, and now have the date of return stamped on the back cover of the books. This saves much time when books are being taken out. I should like to thank the girls of the Library Committee for their work in checking the books and the boarders especially for keeping the library open after school and at week-ends. Finally to Mrs. Cowperthwaite and Mrs. Clarke, I should like to extend our most sincere thanks for their unceasing work and helpful advice given throughout the year. Joan Foley.

P. F. A. Report

This year the P.F.A. has continued under the leadership of Mrs. Shanks. The following girls were elected as office-bearers for 1964: President, Vivien Notman; Vice-President, Kathrin Maconachie; Secretary, Jennifer King; Treasurer, Jennifer Haines; Committee, Barbara Brewster, Adele Doonan, Julie Goldsworthy, Catherine Hallam, Merren Hurlston, Joan Ingpen and Kaye McMiken. We were glad to welcome twenty new members at the beginning of the year, which brought our membership number to seventy-two; these new members were presented with their badges by the Rev. A. McAdam at a service held on 29th October. As usual, during first term we were kept busy knitting jumpers and squares and sewing for the Geelong and District Service Exhibition at which we gained a first and third prize. Some very attractive articles of clothing were made and it is hoped that next year the P.F.A. will begin thinking about it even earlier and have a larger display of articles. Everyone donated a small contribution to the Mission Box and on 19th April Rev. C. W. McLeod dedicated these things and then spoke about his experiences in the New Hebrides. Our Mission Box gained third prize at the Melbourne Exhibition. The main highlight of the year was the combined P.F.A. Camp we held with P.L.C. at the National Fitness Camp at Anglesea during the week-end of 31st July - 2nd August. We were under the leadership of Mrs. Shanks, Miss McKinnon and several trainee deaconesses from Rolland House. The main theme for the camp was "Fellowship" and this was displayed throughout the entire week-end, not only in our studies and worship but also in our recreation, and many new friends were made. Our thanks go to the leaders for making it such an enjoyable and interesting week-end, and to Miss Shaw for allowing us to attend. On 2nd July, Mrs. Gilham kindly spoke to us about her trip to New Zealand and showed us some very interesting slides. We were also fortunate to have a visit from Miss Ritchie, Principal of Rolland House, during third term. She spoke to us about deaconess training, but unfortunately there were not as many there as hoped owing to the commencement of examinations the following day. We were very pleased to have a visit from the State Field Secretary, Mr. Bruce McKenzie and the Geelong District President, Mr. Vernon Wood on 8th October. Bruce gave a very interesting and entertaining talk on the changing ways in P.F.A. activities and new ideas which can be included in our syllabus. The meeting concluded with the singing of several folk-songs, led by Vernon, and the result of this visit was that everyone had a new view of P.F.A. activities.

THE LUCERNIAN

Among our regular meetings we have been shown slides by Mrs. Shanks, had various question meetings, and two Bible studies. Finally, I would like to thank Mrs. Shanks for her helpful guidance and continual interest in us throughout the year. To next year's P.F.A. I wish the best of luck and may you advance the aims and ideals of P.F.A. in fellowship together. Vivien Notman.

P. G. A. Report

We held our first P.G.A. meeting in the gymnasium on the 28th February, 1964, and Mrs. Shanks was very pleased to see so many new girls attending. Two of last year's office-bearers were invited along to elect new ones and they were chosen as follows: President, Pamela Wightman; Vice-President, Judith Matheson; Secretary, Robyn Woodburn and Treasurer, Gillian Horne. Through the year we knitted squares for a rug which we gave to the Mission Box, as well as soaps and powders of all different types. Mrs. Shanks and the treasurer decided we should send our fortnightly collections to Mowanjum, a mission station in Queensland. At each meeting we had different games or things to do, these included a penny hike, paper parade, scavenger hunt, slides nights and a topics night which was enjoyed by all. We decided to have a barbecue later on in the year and in October about 20 girls received their badges at the badge dedication. We would like to thank Mrs. Shanks very much for her co-operative help through the year and we wish next year's girls all the success we have had. Pamela Wightman.

The Dressmaking Report

The dressmaking students this year have shown their skill in producing many beautiful and creative garments for which they are to be congratulated. This is due mainly to the patient guidance and instruction of Miss Blake. Many girls who studied for their Intermediate or Leaving Certificate included dressmaking in their list of subjects. Apart from making garments—lingerie, sports wear, afternoon wear and evening wear, it was necessary for them to complete a practical file and notebook, all of which was to be finished by 3rd November. Many outstanding garments were modelled by their makers on Hobbies' Day which fell on 13th November Winter coats this year were more numerous than in previous years, also formal dresses and ballerinas were a dominant feature of the parade, being both smart and attractive in design. Finally I would like to thank Miss Blake for all the time she has spent throughout the year supervising the girls who did dressmaking as a subject or special subject. I can assure her that all her assistance has been of great help to all her pupils. Noella Champion.

Canteen Report

Our sincere thanks go to the Matriculation boarders who have willingly assisted throughout the year in selling sweets and icecreams to the boarders on Tuesday and Saturdays. Ice-creams and drinks have also been available to the school each recess and lunch time, and we would like to thank Miss Leigh for ordering these.

THE LUCERNIAN Day girls have been able to buy buns and rolls for their lunches and pies during second term. Our thanks also go to Maria who has been most helpful in the general managing of the canteen, especially in providing hot lunches for day girls who wish to have them. Jennifer Dohle, Adele Doonan.

Social Service Report 1964

As in the story of the hen and the pig who were each asked to contribute to a charitable fund, a hen could give an egg as her contribution, but the pig gave his bacon; this was a real sacrifice, and the amount raised this year reflects the sacrifices which many girls have made. During Term I, the sale of Red Cross badges brought £9/11/-. On 6th April the Sub-Intermediate forms went to a film and talk given by Group-Captain Cheshire and his wife on the work being done in India. On 13th May, Dr. Fitz-Patrick, with the assistance of Mr. Dickson, showed a film and spoke on the increasing work being done for " Karingal." Various efforts have been made to raise money for this. On 19th June, " Two Acres of Land," an Indian film, was shown for the public in our hall by representatives from Community Aid Abroad. The climax of our Aboriginal Appeal was reached on 21st August at our barbecue which alone brought £23/13/-. Other money-raising schemes have included form fetes, concerts, house competitions, sing-alongs, junior boarders' efforts, the prefects' effort and an art exhibition. We hope our total of £58/0/11 will enable two aboriginal girls to go to school. Money has been raised during Term III to aid St. Phillip's College at Alice Springs. Mrs. Firth, field officer for Junior Red Cross, came and spoke to the Social Service representatives and form captains on the work done by members of the Junior Red Cross and the plans for the future. About one hundred garments have been sent to the women of the University to be shipped to needy children overseas. Bottle tops, stockings, stamps and extra efforts in knitting squares have been constantly appreciated. I would like to thank Miss Evans, Miss Leigh and Mrs. Bickford for their unfailing support and also the girls who have given their support throughout the year. Joan Ingpen.

Shakespeare Day

Morongo celebrated the four hundredth birthday of William Shakespeare with a presentation of five Shakespearian excerpts by members from the literature classes of Intermediate, Leaving and Matriculation. They were performed in the Gertrude Pratt Hall which had been artistically decorated through the inspiration of Miss Rushbrooke. A colourful paper frieze extending along the west wall displayed portraits of famous Shakespearian characters and attractively dressed wenches, very similar in appearance to some of the girls in Intermediate G, stood in the foyer with programmes and trays of fruit and nuts. Intermediate A presented Act I from " Twelfth Night " and among the leading characters were Fiona MacAdie as Duke Orsino, Susanne Brown in the dual role of Cesario/Viola, Barbara Guthrie as Maria, Erica Potter as Feste the Clown, Helen R. Hill as Countess Olivia, with Helen Thompson as Malvolio and Heather Millikan as Sir Toby Belch. The production by Intermediate P of " The Baiting of Malvolio, " from " Twelfth Night " was characterised by good acting interspersed with the antics of a certain feather-conscious Sir Andrew Aguecheek. Principal roles were acted by Sally Odgers, Jill Muller, Cecily Moreton, Susan Eccles-Smith, Julia Lockhart, Janne Dickson, Susan Forsyth and Janet Hosford. Leaving P presented the Welsh scene from " Henry IV, Part I." Ably directed by Miss Williams, whose homeland is Wales, Carole McKenzie, Gillian Walter, Vicki Paterson, Shelley Hancox, Robin Ormrod and Jennifer Harrison took the major roles. Leaving A's

THE LUCERNIAN

contribution was from " Henry IV, Part I " and, apart from the inability of one certain character to remain seated on the bench, it was well acted with Elizabeth Honey, Gina Blau, Jennifer Bickford, Patricia Malloch, Julie Stray and Mary Gayer taking the main parts. The love story of Beatrice and Benedict was the theme of Matriculation's presentation of scenes from " Much Ado About Nothing." The roles of Beatrice and Benedict were taken by Ann Thwaites and Elizabeth Eaton who were ably supported by Joan Foley, Helen Carlile, Susan McColl, Margaret McLeod, Joan Ingpen, Rosemary Lalor, and Merren Hurlston in the other major parts. All the literature students join with me in thanking Mrs. Cowperthwaite, Miss Williams and Miss Lawn for their capable direction of the productions and Miss Rushbrooke for her artistic insight which made Shakespeare's four hundredth birthday a Shakespeare Day which Morongo will remember. Ruth Venters.

The School Dance 1964

Acknowledgments

Our School Dance was held on 6th June, in the Gertrude Pratt Hall. The prefects and senior girls were hostesses to Miss Shaw, Mr. and Mrs. Thwaites, M. and Mrs. Coggin, Miss Sutherland, Miss Henderson, Miss Jacka, Mr. and Mrs. Eaton, the Hermitage prefects, and the prefects and boys from The Geelong College and Geelong Grammar School. Once again the evening took the form of a Programme Dance, and the girls decided on a less sophisticated decor for a more relaxed atmosphere. Artificial awnings were made from pink and red crepe paper to simulate Parisian street flower stalls. These were placed along the brick wall in front of a wide paper frieze which various artistic students decorated with black silhouettes of vintage cars. The awnings were placed around the drink stall and band stand. In the foyer a flower cart overflowing with pink and red carnations introduced the guests to the festive atmosphere. Masses of red balloons, pink and red geraniums scattered through gold ivy, and red candles flickering in competition to the glorious view from our window of the lights of Geelong, all added together to make a wonderful effect, which was climaxed by supper by candlelight in the Founders' Hall. The evening was a great success. I would like to thank Misss Jacka, Miss Leigh and the ground staff for everything they did for us. The girls who worked so enthusiastically were well rewarded for their efforts, but I would also like to thank the junior boarders, who gave up their afternoon to assist in the arduous tasks of blowing up balloons, searching for ivy, and generally being useful. Now that 1964 is nearly over, it will not long before the discussion of hair-styles, dresses and decorations will be starting again. Elizabeth Eaton. We wish to acknowledge with thanks the receipt of the following magazines and apologise for any unintentional omissions: "The Magazine of the Presbyterian Ladies' College, Goulburn, N.S.W."; " The Corian," from Geelong Grammar School, Geelong; " The Ruytonian," from Ruyton Girls' School, Melbourne; " Vitae Lampada," from Terang High School, Terang; " The Clayfield Collegian,"

The sports trophies were presented by Mrs. E. G. Ruxton, President of the Old Collegians' Association. Miss Shaw gave an account of the activities and achievements of the School throughout the year and the School Choir under the direction of Miss J. Blowes sang a bracket of songs.

THE LUCERNIAN

ORIGINAL SECTION

"From a Butterfly's Point of View"

THE LUCERNIAN I heard a noise in the flower near which I was resting. " Zzub, z mb," it went. This was a new sound, and I raised my wings in alarm. Then I realised it was the backward bee from the new hive in the orchard. Most bees drone monotonously, " Buzz, buzz," so I knew that this bee must be particularly backward, even though it is my opinion that no bees are forward, or have any initiative of their own. Since the new swarm of bees has taken over the hive in the orchard, I have been studying these queer specimens of Nature's art. Like human beings, they live in communities into which they introduce rules and regulations which inhibit their actions, and bind them with invisible cords to the hive, which is the centre of their existence. Everything they do must be of some benefit to the hive, and a bee's greatest fear is to be exiled from it. They have a fanatical devotion to the work of the community and are cruel to those who dare to believe that there is something more in life. The drones, who live for love are cast out to die by the sexless workers. Once I talked with a drone and found him an interesting individual, but his misery and self pity at being cast out, spoilt our conversation, as these emotions always do. At least, however, his words meant more than the ceaseless chatter of the workers who feel they are bound to make a bright buzz of conversation for the sake of the "appearances" which seem to worry all those who live in societies. Now, listening to the zzubbing near me, I decided that this bee, who was original enough to have a different opinion from his fellows, might have something of interest to tell me. So often it is the way that those who are thought backward and stupid by the mob, are the only ones who have any opinion worth airing. Of this stuff are the geniuses made. It takes courage to be different, and I thought that, at last, I had found a bee whom I could admire. I lifted myself lightly from my resting place and fluttered to where the bee's velvet brown body hovered ponderously above the flower. She was engaged in stuffing pollen into the bags in her legs and zzubbed that she couldn't stop now, she was busy collecting booty for the hive. " Well !" I thought. " What a disappointment. Some people are different just for the sake of being different, and these are even more annoying than those who blindly follow the crowd." I could not remain angry with the poor, stupid creature for long, however. The sun was drowsily warm, the breeze was soothingly cool, and, being a butterfly, I had both the time and the inclination to enjoy these things. Unlike the bees, I do not have to work all the time, and by letting each day take care of itself, I have time to appreciate the finer arts of living. I can laugh at the bees for their blind devotion and the manner in which they work frantically, never knowing where they are going, or why they are going there. They industriously lay up stores for the winter, never realising that the harder they work, the more likely they are to die of old age before they have time to taste their carefully prepared honey. Unselfishness and diligence are fine words when they are spoken, but put into practice they are misleading and unsatisfying. You cannot, no matter how hard you try, give

THE LUCERNIAN

happiness to those who do not want it. What you want from life you must seize for yourself, not in the future, for tomorrow never comes, but right now, while you are still alive to enjoy it, for who knows when the birds will swoop from apparently clear skies to carry you off in their lethal beaks? I know, from experience, that happiness is not handed to you on a green cabbage leaf. Today, as I was pondering the strange ways of bees, I gradually He was not really became aware of another butterfly near by. handsome, but I liked the way he was looking at me, so I preened my wings, turning them so that the light was trapped in their beautiful colours. Laughing to myself as I thought how the prim little workers would have minded their own business in the presence of such a prepossessing znale, I did my best to attract him, and with my lovely body I succeeded. I am not boasting, for I am grateful to the Love which took such care in making me. That is another thing which I cannot understand about bees. They labour for their community from a sense of duty, and not from a sense of love, which makes service sublime. Bees do not understand love, and one can only feel sorry for them, because of this great lack in their lives. Love and happiness are all I ask of life for myself. I will feel that my days have been well spent if I can leave my eggs nestling in some green haven and die, knowing that at least some of my children will grow up to live as joyous, beautiful butterflies in this world which can be so exciting if you have the gift of open eyes. The life of a butterfly is short, but a brief span of merriment is better than an eternity of hard work and boredom. Robin Wesley ( 17 years).

Ski School

Recently I went to the snow with the National Fitness Council of Victoria, where I spent a week trying to pick up the art of ski-ing. Ski-ing has become very popular in Australia but many students find it a very expensive sport to take up. However, the National Fitness Council has six ski schools for beginners each year, two especially for students, which provide a very economical week's ski-ing in some of the best snow fields in Victoria. The N.F.C. has taken over the original S.E.C. camp at Howman's Gap, two and a half miles from Falls Creek Ski Village. The Camp contains a dining room, recreational hall lounge and several sleeping huts divided into rooms, with each room catering for two campers. All the rooms are heated and hot showers and drying rooms are provided for the skiers. The Council has its own equipment — skis, stocks and boots, which are hired out to the campers. When we arrived at the camp we found we were divided into six groups of fifteen or sixteen, each with its own leader. Every morning we set off for the slopes at ten o'clock and we were given one and a half hours' instruction by our group leaders. In the afternoon we had two hour lessons from the Austrian ski experts who come to Australia every year to help promote the sport. These Austrians provided many laughs because of their limited English and were not certain of the differences between words such as Omlette and Hamlet, Shakespeare and Shake's Beer.

THE LUCERNIAN At night other activities such as films, dancing, competitions and games were carried on. A cabaret night was held on the last night and proved to be a great success. By the middle of the week the best skiers had been sorted out from the not-so-good, and the groups were changed around and graded according to the standard of ski-ing. I found that before the week was over I was an expert at picking myself, plus skis up from the ground after falling over. We found that the National Fitness beginners were very well known by the Falls Creek locals because of their recklessness on skis and I was most amused when one of the Austrians gave us a demonstration of our performances on the snow. Some of us seemed to spend the first two days ski-ing uncontrollably through groups of elderly people (quite competent on their skis) who happened to be in front of us, apologising furiously all the while, but unable to stop ourselves until we ran into trees or banks of snow, after which we fell most ungracefully into those very awkward positions when you're not sure which part of you is which and what to move first! By the end of the week we were avid ski-ing enthusiasts but we know that even if we did return to the snow in the future, it would not be the same without the 96 or so other members of the camp. The National Fitness Council provided friends, fitness and fun packed into one week of ski-ing and everyone was very sad to leave the camp and the helpful, lively leaders and National Fitness officers. Susan McIntyre (16 years).

The "White Australia Policy "

The Australian Government favours an exclusive racial policy, generally known as " The White Australia Policy." This is a subject which warrants careful consideration by all Australians, for the coloured peoples of the world are rapidly rising in power, and other countries dislike our policy. In Australia, we avoid the trouble arising in other countries by keeping our country white, and there is the fear that our living standards will go down and that, because of our vast expanses of uninhabited country, we may be swamped. These feelings must be counteracted if we are to avoid trouble. Australians must be made to realise that Australia is an empty country, and secondly that the blacks outnumber the whites in the world by five to one. They are bound to influence the United Nations soon and, when this is on an international basis, it is possible they could say that Asians must be allowed to settle in Australia, and then we would be swamped. If we got rid of the hatred and prejudice found in Australia, this situation could be avoided. An enlightenment policy could take the form of a public declaration that in future there is to be no such thing as a " White Australia Policy." Both nations must agree to what Australia can take and what the other can give. We should take both skilled and unskilled Asians, although I think we are entitled to healthy Asians with no criminal record. There should be a five year period trial, then the situation should be reviewed,

THE LUCERNIAN

and it is up to Australia to see the coloured aren't given low status jobs. There must be no discrimination in housing, hotels, and trade unions. The average Australian must be educated to these ideas, and if this is done there is a fair chance for the absorption of coloured peoples in Australia, and therefore a bettering of external relations. Sandra Timms (18 years).

Hawaii -- The Orchid Islands

The Hawaiian Islands together form the 50th State of the United States of America. They are situated in the Torrid Zone, north-east of Australia, almost in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The islands are islands of intrigue, enchantment, oddities and refuge. Hawaiian flowers include: Bird of Paradise, Reg Ginger, Orchids and Anthurium. Many varieties of plants and trees also thrive. There are ti trees, vines and creepers, palms, royal poinciana, ferns, fern trees and lilies. Many of these are used to make leiis or grass skirts while others are used as ornaments or mats for the home. The typical dress of the Hawaiian women is a muu muu, a loose fitting dress-like garment which is made in varying lengths. The casual or day muu muu is usually made of floral print material and it may be knee or floor length. The formal or night muu

THE LUCERNIAN muu is of any type of material and may have a trailing train. Among the oddities of the Hawaiian Islands are double rainbows, black-sand beaches, volcano houses (homes built in or near the crater of a volcano) rainbow falls and the fabulous Kilauea Volcano which can be watched during eruption. For entertainment one can usually find surf beaches, hospitable Hawaiian people, or you may go for a ride to the point where King Kamaymay performed his "magic" (he jumped off a cliff but a strong gust of wind blew him back up) where you will usually find natives selling hand made necklaces, and last but not least at almost any hotel you will find nightly shows of island dancers including the hula girls and fire dancers. All around I think Hawaii is the loveliest place on earth that I have seen. Lissa A. Martinez (10 years).

Hate

Oh subtle sin, who giveth birth to thee? Who bids thee come, prepares the way for thee? You come by night when tolerance doth sleep. Your power is strong, your firey clutch is deep. If men were more alert with love and grace Your strength would wane, your cause would soon lose face. Oh subtle sin, so freely gratified. Men love you, for your cause have gladly died. And yet in dealings loyalty you forsake, From camp to camp your plunderous way you make. Your volume grows within the heart of man On your destructive deeds there is no ban. Oh subtle sin, to whom the gates of pride, of jealousy and lust are open wide. What is your power that turns men sour within, That makes them cold, and wears all friendships thin? Does this cruel world inspire this deadly sin Or is our hate innately born within? Oh subtle sin, one day your power you'll lose When eager men a higher motive choose. Against your callous ways they'll want to fight For noble love they'll strive with all their might. But who will give men strength against this foe? 'Tis God above, from whom all mercies flow. Then will men see black skins as snowy white. The goal of equal rights will be their light. For from the chains of hate they will be free, The need of love and tolerance they'll see. And God through deeds like this is glorified. When mercy comes and hate is cast aside. My friend, I challenge you this day To strive for peace. Forsake your hateful way! Forsake yourself, and seek to serve your friend, That love may be triumphant in the end. But do not glory in the wonder of your deeds. For 'tis the Lord who meeteth all your needs. Jill Tomkins (17 years).

" Well, she reckoned Polonius was at home and I reckoned he was behind the hedge: I got even though. I murdered him in your bedroom." " Hamlet!" " Oh, don't worry, I cleaned it all up." " Thank you, dear." " I had to fight Laertes, Mummy. He got mad about Polonius and then Ophelia developed a dementia praecox psychotic condition." " Would you like some more cocoa?" " No, no, there's a special providence in the fall of a sparrow." " What dear?" " Providence, you know, a divinity that shapes our lives." " I see." " That's terrific and without your glasses, too. Hold on a minute you are supposed to die now." I beg your pardon." " Please mother don't beg, just die. William says you must, before Laertes." " Farewell then Hamlet.

My Pet

Once I had a little fish, He had a broken wing, I put him in a golden dish And tried to make him sing. He swam around from tree to tree, And grinned from ear to ear, I asked if he might sing for for me He answered with a tear . . . " I tried but cannot sing for you Because my wing is broke." And then he gave a mighty moo Which ended in a croak. I took him off to see the vet., We said he'd surely die, Because there never had lived yet A fish that could not fly. Jennifer Henton (14 years).

My Life Was Saved By An Animal

It was Friday and I came home from school exhausted and hot. As soon as I entered the gateway our dog came bounding up to greet me. With his fore-paws on my shoulders he gave me a quick friendly lick and ran up the drive. I came trudging after him wishing I had as much energy. Finally I arrived at the house. Opening the door I happened to notice a note on the wire, which read: " Gone to Auntie Jean's, tea in oven. Have a swim and I will pick you up on the way back. Then I have to go to a meeting — Mummy." Quickly I changed into my bathers, snatched up a towel, called the dog (for he always comes too) and we set off. Arriving at the bank of the river I found a nice sandy patch where I left my belongings. The water was icy for it was a very hot day, but I was so hot I just dived straight in "Splash!" In came the dog after me and we started to swim across to the sand-bank. Reaching there safely I decided to swim the rest of the way, right to the other side of the river. I had often swum this distance with Mum so I thought, " Why couldn't I swim all by myself!" So, running across the sandbank with Sambo, the dog, I dived into the water on the other side. The current was much stronger and the stretch of water was further to swim. At first it was easy, then as I swam into the middle it began to get more and more tiring.

THE LUCERNIAN

At last my strength gave out and I started to drift down towards the bridge. Desperately I tried to fight but it was all in vain, so I lay on my back and hoped for the best. Soon I found myself coughing and choking and water was rushing over my head. Then to my delight I heard Sambo's bark close at hand. Had he come to rescue me or was he getting carried away too? I soon found out that he had come to get me. Hanging on to his tail I was dragged into shore. As I was nearly unconscious and could not get up, I lay down for a moment. Then I saw the familiar blue car draw up beside the road. Mum jumped out and ran over to me, picked me up and carried me to the car. She took me home and put me to bed. When I recovered I told her what Sambo had done and she was very pleased to hear it. H. McKewan (11 years).

The Old Tree Remembers

The old tree, although ugly in its old age, was once a healthy young sapling. He remembers well the groaning and sighing of the older trees as they were brought crashing to the ground, to make room for some new saplings beside whom he was planted. He also remembers how the winds of winter made his great boughs sway and creak, whilst the rain beat a tattoo on his leaves, and he is sad. Sad because he knows that some spring he will not wake to feel the breezes or the rain. His leaves will no longer be a bright green, they will be brown and dry and dead, and he will flourish no longer, but in his sadness, he is happy, happy, because he also knows, that when he has lived his life and is taken away, a new sapling shall flourish: flourish as he did, many years ago.

Such bitterness, they say, is wrong in one so young — they do not know its causes: they cannot. were they ever young with their task of " adolescent problems," was life ever but existence to them? Laughter, tinkling sprinkling everything, leaves me untouched, unmoved, cold. To me, day follows day, endlessly, and night follows night, monotonously, and I, withdrawn and alone, turn inward. Annabel (VI).

The Dying Seal

THE LUCERNIAN There was no-one on the beach. The holiday-makers had disappeared to their various shacks or had driven back to the cities, so there was no-one to watch the greeny, brown shape lumber slowly from the whipping surf and flop tiredly on the sand. The seal lay on the unmarked part of the beach where the eddying whirls of foam lapped gently round it and then sucked gushingly back to the sea. The sand further up the beach, where happy children had played during the day looked perforated, with the depressions causing black shadows in the dying light. The old seal twitched his whiskers and dilated his big nostrils so that his nose looked like the glowing interior of a furnace. The leathern flippers drooped from either side of his prostrate battlescarred body and when he opened his mouth the teeth were limited in number, yellow and decaying with age. Suddenly the seal heaved himself slowly, tiredly on his front flippers and pointed his leathern nose aloft, waving his head from side to side. Then with a despairing sigh he sank heavily back to his original position. He was probably an outcast, beaten in battle and forced to leave the colony. He may have swum for weeks on end without rest and although there was nothing physically wrong with him except fatigue, he had no desire to live. The old man of the sea raised himself one more, then sank again lolling sluggishly on the sand. The old seal heard the roar of the crashing breakers, felt the swirling eddies of foam under his belly and knew his time had come. His breath came in wheezing gasps, his tired old eyes were not pain filled but rather overcome with a sense of peace, and with the last rays of the sun disappearing behind the dunes, the old seal died peacefully. Jane Honman (16 years).

Doodling

Raindrops. Glistening, winking, Sparkling, tinkling, Plopping on the lumpy, mud brown pudding that is earth after rain. Clouds. Whispering, floating, Lunging, jerking, Stranded cotton wool draped across the damp, blue sky. • Rainbow. Smiling, warming, Beauty, reassuring, Pale glowing arch of colour linking world to world.

The Origin and Development of The Olympic Games

In ancient Greece the athletic festivals had an almost religious character. There were four important such festivals in different parts of Greece and one of these, the Olympian, held every four years in honour of Zeus became a national event. Official Olympic records have been kept since 766 B.C. but the exact date of the origin of the Games is unknown. The original Olympic Games were held on the Plain of Olympia around the time of the full moon in August before many No thousands of spectators from all parts of the Greek world. married woman was admitted, even as an onlooker. The following is a probable sequence of events. On the first day the Olympic oath was taken by the competitors and judges and on the second day gymnastic competitions for the boys took place. The third day was devoted to racing and the pentathlon event, a contest to test the skill of the athlete in five different sports — jumping, running, discus and javelin throwing and wrestling. The evening of the third day and all of the fourth day were kept as holy days. On the fifth day foot-racing, wrestling and boxing were held and on the sixth and final day the victors were presented with garlands of wild olives and palm branches, while their names and countries were announced to the spectators. At first these Games were a purely Greek affair but later the Romans participated and they became European Championships. However, in 394 A.D. the Games were abolished by the Christian Emperor Theodosius because of their pagan origin and for the next 1500 years there was no great international athletic tournament. The modern Olympic Games were instituted in 1896 and were held in Athens, Greece. The Games are now held every four years, the International Olympic Committee appointing the host country. The host nation bears the cost of presenting the Games but competing nations pay their own athletes' expenses. Almost all forms of sport are represented, but the ancient pentathlon has been replaced by the decathlon which tests the athletes' ability in ten instead of five different sports. Women first competed at the Olympic Games in 1922 and now women can compete in almost as many events as the male competitors. The majority of events take place at the chosen stadium or ground, for example, the Wembley Stadium in London in 1948 and the Melbourne Cricket Ground in 1956. Other sports such as winter competitions are held in different places throughout the Olympic year. The modern Olympic Games meeting begins with the arrival of the Olympic torch, which has been carried by a relay of runners from the plains of Olympus. This torch symbolizes the continuation of the ancient Greek athletic ideal and is a tribute to the ancient athletes. It burns throughout the entire Games meeting. The Olympic flag bears the five interlinking rings showing the uniting of five continents in a common interest. Mary Gayer (15 years).

The Southern Cloud

Hillbilly Homecoming

Home of Yesterday

THE LUCERNIAN Thirty-four years ago, Kingsford-Smith started a mail and passenger route from Sydney to Melbourne. He had six triple engined Fokkers each with a trade name starting with Southern. One March day in 1931, one of the Fokkers, Southern Cloud, was on the route carrying five passengers and the mail to Melbourne. The pilot received a forecast warning of cyclonic conditions in the area, but he didn't have a chance to report his position for the transmitter went dead and the light aircraft was caught full in the storm and blown right off course. There were several search parties and thousands of pounds lost, but the Southern Cloud was never found. Quite soon afterwards, during the depression, the company went bankrupt and all was lost. It was not until 1958, twenty-seven years later, that some men working on the Snowy Mountain Scheme were clearing the desolate countryside near Cooma. They began finding pieces of wreckage. They followed the trail and found what was left of the plane, passengers and baggage. The registration number was found and proved to be the Southern Cloud or what was left of her. There is a monument of the Southern Cloud with pieces of charred wreckage at Cooma, N.S.W. S. Donaldson, 14 years). In the foothills of the Smokies, which lie in the south-west border of Tennessee, U.S.A., there is a town called Maryville. Every year around the first of July the people of the town form what is called a " Hillbilly Homecoming." People from miles around come back to the " hills " with their Model T's and other antique cars for the big parade before the main show. They dress in their hillbilly costumes and come to the reunion. They have famous celebrities to entertain and square-dances for everyone to join in and have fun. The grounds on which the " Homecoming " is held are filled with colourful displays of arts and crafts and many stands are filled with souvenirs. The final night is the " Fourth of July " which is America's Independence Day. This is when the final judgment of the " Belle of the Smokies " is held. The " Homecoming " ends with a big dance and display of fireworks. Brenda Blake (14 years). It stands there, Bare, alone, deserted, cold. A chimney, two walls, A willow seeks to shelter it In vain. Life no longer exists here, Family have died or departed, Warmth and joy have gone, Leaving the home soul-less, A house. Only the creek and grass hear echoes of far-distant laughter, Only Heaven remembers the love that once dwelt here, Only wind and rain haunt these shattered ruins of stone. Janet Cox(15 years).

THE LUCERNIAN

A Public Festival

Christmas, or Play-Day on the island of Tanna in the New Hebrides is the happiest day of the year. For weeks beforehand, villagers for miles round prepare for the great day by making food, roasting pigs on the coals and making other dishes fanciful to the natives. Not only is there need to prepare the food, but also their clothing. Most people have now become " Westernised " and thus wear European clothing, but on this special day everyone arrives in gaily coloured grass-skirts and lava-lavas. For this the skirts must be made, material bought, dyes, powder and handkerchiefs also must be bought the powder being to whiten their skin for they envy us our colouring, and the handkerchiefs to wear in their hair, or round their wrists for decoration. Meanwhile, the missionary has sent to his home land—in this case Australia—for boiled sweets and other such luxuries, and missionboxes which have been sent out must be unpacked and sorted for distribution. When at last the day arrives, and the preparation is all over, villagers from all the neighbouring villages come to early morning communion at 6.30 a.m. Here they sit man and woman together with all the forms pushed together, instead of having men on one side and women the other as is the usual habit. After this, they sit round in little groups to talk and have breakfast. At about nine o'clock, everyone goes to the " oval " — a large cleared strip of land — for games. These are mainly team games and everyone joins in, laughing and joking. During this time, there are several " lolly-scrambles " — a habit introduced by white men which the natives think is a wonderful idea. Following this, there is lunch for which the people form little groups again, this time under the shade of the trees because of the intense tropical heat. After a siesta, at about two o'clock when the heat has lessened, the fun begins again, this time with more dancing. The real fun, however, begins in the late evening, when the folk stories are being enacted. My favourite was that of Iaramus—the devil. The plot was that a man goes fishing and while fishing, he is unaware that Iaramus is up a nearby tree waiting to pounce on him. However, he is armed with his spear, so that when the devil does spring, the man is unhurt. The costumes are the most fascinating part of the play for Iaramus dresses himself in old sugar-bags and banana leaves round the waist, an old sack over the top part of his body and this bag is painted with eerie designs in red and white. Round the tops of his arms, he binds banana leaves, his bare fore-arms are painted, as is his face. The man on the other hand wears the bright yellowgreen fronds of the coco-nut palm round his ankles, waist and arms and in a head-band which hangs down his back. In the background, the drums beat out in a monotonous tone while the man is fishing, but in the struggle, the tempo increases, tension rises and everyone becomes enthralled. When the play is ended, everyone is so tense, that they decide to have the feast. This lasts until the food supply runs out which might not be until about

THE LUCERNIAN three hours of steady eating. The food consists of — roasted meat such as pork, fowls and beef, followed by lap-laps—grated vegetable and coco-nut juice baked, as well as baked vegetables like taro, kwale and maniok and yams. Their drinks are the juice of young green coco-nuts, in which the flesh has not yet begun to form. These have a tang, vaguely like that of lemonade, yet more nutty. After the feast, there is singing round the fires to the accompaniment of guitars, home-made drums and clapping. During this singing some people do dances for so often the dances and songs are connected in the words and actions. It is a really beautiful sight to see the native women in their coloured grass-skirts and lava-lavas, with their white faces and handkerchiefs waving, while the men dance in the light green costumes described for the man in the play. Their bodies move so gracefully and they so obviously enjoy it. Their day ends at about 5 in the morning when everyone returns home to bed. Margaret McLeod (18 years).

Naming Australia's Capital

At the end of the year 1908, the Australian Commonwealth Parliament reached a decision on the location of the Federal Capital which was to be established in N.S.W. not less than 100 miles from Sydney. Parliament chose the Yass - Canberra district. Later the exact site, in the upland valley of the Molonglo River, was chosen. The Commonwealth Government conducted an international competition for a design for the capital, and in 1912 announced that Walter Burley Griffin, a landscape architect from Chicago, had won. The naming, and laying of the foundation stones, of the city took place in 1913, on the slopes of Capital Hill. Lady Denman named the city " Canberra " amidst cheers and applause. Up to the time of this announcement the mane had been kept a dark secret. The Government had had some difficulty in reaching a decision. This is not surprising because for weeks people had been writing to the leaders and the Press suggesting names of all kinds. In fact, the Government had received more than 900 suggested names ranging from Atlantis, Pleiades, through Cooceoomoo, Kangaremu, and names from the Bible - Eve, Immanuel - and the frankly crude or sardonic - Cookedfish, Holeyou, Swindleville - to the ingenious - Noitaredef and Sydmeladperbrisho. The Cabinet, however, eventually decided on Canberra which had been the name of the locality for many years. The origin of the name is obscure. Some maintain that it is an aboriginal word derived from the name of a native tribe which once frequented the district, whilst others hold that it is the corrupt form of an English place name. Whatever the truth may be, it is certain that the district was called by a number of similar names in old documents — Canbury, Canberry and Kembery. The correct pronunciation is " Can-bera," with the accent on the first syllable and the "e" almost omitted. Karin Mathison (16 years).

The Bird

The sweetest of all in sound, Where is it to be found? Something that must be heard, The sweet song of the bird. His sweetest sound of song, N'er seems to last too long, Each day's a day of glee, Perched there singing in his tree. Karen MacGregor (10 years).

University Open Day

The Wind

On Saturday the thirty-first of July, the University of Melbourne held its annual open day. This enjoyable day is arranged by the Students' Representative Council. Most of the faculties presented displays of work. At two o'clock the University swimming team gave an interesting display of various styles of swimming in the heated pool at the Beaurepaire centre. This continued for a quarter of an hour. At a quarter past three a similar demonstration was held. During various intervals in the afternon the inter-University championships were held in judo, weight-lifting and fencing. Another interesting feature of the afternoon was the display in the Zoology School. The show cases in the small museum were filled with stuffed animals, a human skeleton (Agnes), coral, preserved fish and a large model of the human ear. The Chemistry Department gave nine lecturettes of the type of work done in their school. One of these was a demonstration of the cause of a volcano. The lecturer used Condy's crystals, sugar and glycerine in the experiment. Then he poured the mixture into a plaster of paris basin and lit it. The lights were switched off and the model threw out streams of sparks. This lasted about three minutes and then the lights were put on again. The Law Faculty presented a mock trial in the afternoon and many people attended. This was held in the Secondary Teachers' College Hall. Later in the day a film, " The Case in Point " was screened in the Redmond Barry building. However, all good things must end, as this one did, and after a most enjoyable day we returned to Geelong. Margaret Scott, 11 years. Choppy seas Swaying trees All blowing in the midnight breeze. Ghostly sounds Banging doors Blowing over windswept moors. Trees uprooted Windows shaking Children crying People waking. Lightning flashes Thunder crashes Dogs agrowling And the wind ahowling. S. Humphreys (12 years).

Hoof Prints in the Sand

THE LUCERNIAN There's silver star-writing across the sky, We lean on the wind, as the wind goes by. The beach is deserted, there's no sound save The flap and the slap of a restless wave. The swirling water and the black rocks meet, With the rhythmic beat of my swift horse's feet. Cleaving a path on the storm-tossed shore, We thrill to the might of the ocean's roar. Thundering past with a breathless pride, Glorious, reckless, undenied. No tide swifter, no wave more fleet Than the beat and the beat of my fiery steed's feet. The sun stares down on tbe silvery-grey, Scorching the soft sand-yellow as hay. High in the burning blue, the sea birds call, I ride in the shade of the red cliffs tall. Cicadas shrill to the noon-day heat, Like the steady beat of my black horses's feet. Shadows are long in the evening cool, Breezes whisper to the still rock-pool. We move at a quiet, gentle pace, His long tail flowing in dusky grace. The wavelets sigh to a tide in retreat, Like the beat and the beat and the beat and the beat J . Johnston (13 years).

The Mystery Object

That black thing coiled upon the lawn, It was there at dusk and there at dawn, Shiny and long, snake-like and thin, Where did it come out and where does it go in? I'll follow it now from here to the end, Once round a corner and into a bend. I think I'm nearly there. Is that its nose? Oh! how silly of me . . . it's only the hose. Lynne McGregor (15 years).

JOTTINGS Marie Baxter has just returned to Geelong after some years spent overseas — Doreen is still in London.

THE LUCERNIAN

Erina Batt (Lowson) is in England where her husband is taking a Post Graduate course. Francis Ashburner (Lowson) is living at Alexandra. Dina Monks (Cannon) is living in Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia where her husband is a Foreign Correspondent for the London Daily Express. Jill Smailes (Cannon) now lives in Lancashire, England. Anna Miller (McBain), with her three children, is in England, her doctor husband is doing a Post Graduate course and sits for exams in early 1965. Anna hopes to do a course at the Gordon Bleu Cookery School. Anne Rollinson (Weaver) remembers her years at Morongo and sends her best wishes to old friends. Her young daughter will be following in her footsteps. Prior to leaving for overseas, Heather Muir was with the Red Cross Blood Bank in Melbourne — on her return she hopes to become an Air Hostess. Heather keeps in touch with Jeannie Dehnert, Janet Craig and Elizabeth Holyman who all seem to be busy and well. Mothercraft Nurse Alison Carey has just taken a position in Bendigo at a Residential Nursery. Kitty Paterson (McLennan) who with her husband visited Australia over Christmas and early this year has arrived back in Scotland after a wonderful trip on the " Oceanien " which took an off-beat tour around the French ports. Kitty has been in touch with Judith Heard of Horsham who is in Edinburgh in a Secretarial position. Our thanks to Sally Clark (Harris) for news of Old Collegians — Sally has been back to the School and was amazed at the amount of growth since the Hall was completed. Congratulations to Elizabeth McCann on her riding in the Melbourne and Geelong Shows.

WHAT IS YOUR LINE? For Lynette Peel a love of history and an interest in agriculture have spurred her on to obtain master's degrees in Agricultural Science and History with an award of a Research Grant as well. Lynnette has been for three months in Asia and Japan with a group of students from Australian Universities staying in private homes in Thailand, Japan and Manila and in Student Colleges in other parts. She is now studying for her M.A. in History to enable her to become an Agricultural Historian. Over the next 18 months she is writing a thesis on the development of the area from Sunbury to Werribee and as she has to rely on old records, diaries, letters and books for most of her subject matter, any Old Collegian who has any of these in the attic might help Lynnette by sending them along to her. Elizabeth Gawith left Australia in September to work as a Missionary in India. She will be working in the Diocese of Madras in the Church of Southern India. For Elizabeth this is a dream come true and the good wishes of all Old Collegians will go with her as she takes up her work in this sphere. Before being commissioned for India, she had been in North Queensland on the Aurukun Mission Station and had letters of good wishes from two Aboriginal Women and two Aboriginal Girls of that area. Joanna Pyper was out on furlough during the year and visited the School. She has gone back to the Canadian North West where she is working as a Doctor with the Health Department. She was most interested in the changes at Morongo. The Nursing profession has taken Margaret Salmon into strange places and she has not long returned from Korea where she was Nursing Supervisor of the Save the Children Fund Clinics in Pusan. Margaret certainly has an interesting story to tell. She was working with a European team which included an English Doctor, a Swedish Sister and a New Zealand born Sister. They saw 2000 children daily,

THE LUCERNIAN of which 100 should have been admitted to hospital but the shortage of beds allowed only five daily to be admitted. Malnutrition and poor living conditions were the cause of the health problems— they had practically no proteins or dairy products to eat. The land is terribly poor and the average family is dependent on charitable institutions. The Save the Children Fund provided the clothing for the children who went to the clinics, the school, the four orphanages, the T.B. Sanitorium and the clinic for children whose parents had leprosy. Margaret was honoured by the Government for her work in Pusan. Erica Wallace is a feature writer with the Daily Express World Magazine in London — for those overseas who wish to contact her, Flat 8, 4 Crane Court, Fleet Street, London, is her home address. Margot Hallam has chosen Music as a career — she is at the Melbourne Conservatorium preparing for a teaching post with the Education Department. After a couple of years overseas, Elizabeth Davies has joined the staff of the new T.V. Station which has opened at Wagga Wagga. A Secretarial Course has taken Clara Maclntyre overseas and she is at present in Jakarta. Elizabeth Rushbrooke was successful in her final year Pharmacy and we hear she has plans for a trip overseas. Elaine has joined the Art Staff at Morongo. An interest in Art has given Vivienne McKay quite an interesting time — she worked with a Film Company in the Animated Cartoon Department. Going overseas she again joined a Film Company and was sent to Holland to work with another Company. Now she is in Athens and is keen to take a Course at Pierce College (an American College) in Social Sciences — a three year course will give her a B.A. degree. If you are in an interesting position — overseas or in Australia — let us know and in the next issue of the Lucernian we will tell your story.

THE LUCERNIAN MELBOURNE BRANCH Annual Report, 1964 Melbourne Branch has continued to play the part for which is was created — that of gathering Old Collegians together several times a year for social contacts. We have been able to forward £30 to Geelong this year, and we are in the process of raising funds through the efforts of old girls who have agreed to raise 15 each from various functions. A film night and a luncheon have already been held, and other girls are arranging social meetings to help our funds. We will also have our usual Christmas table at our final reunion for 1964, which will be held on October 20th. Our first reunion for 1964 was held on Tuesday, April 21st, when we were pleased to welcome Miss Shaw and many new members. Our Annual Church Service was held at Balwyn on May 3rd. The School choir assisted us by leading the singing, and rendering an anthem. It was a rewarding night for us all. Geelong were represented by their President, and Miss Shaw was with us once again. We thank her for her presence as well as her interest. As our year does not close till the end of October, our financial statement and list of members may seem smaller than last year, but we have not been able to include our reunion to be held on October 20th, as it was necessary for this report to be printed at an earlier date. The Office-Bearers of Melbourne Branch are— Lorna Hooper (Chairman), Min Thompson, Helen MacGowan, Elsie Bishop, Bunty Penman, Meredith Middleton, and Joan Swain. Lorna Hooper, Chairman.

At this point the future of the Branch was discussed at some length, and it was decided we should carry on with a voluntary committee of three. Miss Shaw then asked for volunteers, and the following girls offered their assistance :— Mrs. Val Atkinson-Grimshaw and Mrs. Judy Gulbin, Joint Vice-Presidents. Mrs. Dorothy Jellie, Treasurer. I t was decided that we should hold our Annual Meeting on the first Satur-

day in October each year, and that our Church Parade should take place on the last Sunday in February of each year — both these motions were passed. The meeting closed after a talk given by Miss Shaw on School activities, and afternoon tea. Our only function for this year, our Church Parade held on 23rd February, at St. Andrews Church, followed by a Reunion Luncheon at the Motel Colac, was very well attended by our members, many of whom had travelled long distances to be with us. Congratulations have been sent during the year to Glenys Drayton on the announcement of her engagement, and to Shirley Joiner on the arrival of her daughter. To our very loyal members Violet and Una, who lost both Mother and Father during 1964, our heartfelt sympathy was extended. To all members who gave us their help and support throughout our term of office, may we say a very sincere thank-you, and trust you will continue this loyalty to those who take over office on 3rd October, 1964. Dorothy Jellie, Judy Gulbin, Val Atkinson-Grimshaw. BALANCE SHEET, 1964 Receipts Bank Balance, 1963 .. Interest— Geelong .. Bank .. Life Subscription .. Donations — Members Proceeds Stall ..

GOULBURN VALLEY BRANCH Annual Report, 1964 I have much pleasure in presenting the Annual Report for 1964. The Annual Church Service was held at Scots Church, Shepparton, on November, 24th 1963, at 11 a.m. The attendance was not as good as the previous year ; this time of the year seems to coincide with Sunday School anniversaries so we have decided to change to the Autumn and hold the next Church Service at a date to be fixed. The Annual Meeting was held on August 22nd, 1964 and took the form of a Luncheon at the Commodore Motel, Wyndham Street, Shepparton. There were 30 present and a number of apologies. Miss Shaw, Mrs. Ruxton and Miss Rentoul were our guests — all present seemed to enjoy the function. Miss Shaw told of school activities and pictures and coloured slides were enjoyed, especially by Old Collegians who have not visited Morongo for many years. Miss Shaw took the chair for the election of Office-Bearers. All OfficeBearers were re-elected with the exception of Jennifer Currie, a vice-president since the formation of our Branch, who is going to live in Geelong, so our loss is their gain. The Office-Bearers are as follows :— President, Jean Fish ; Vice-presidents. Betty Thornton, Heather Lloyd ; Secretary, Heather McDonald ; Treasurer, Gwen Bradshaw. To those who have announced their engagement we extend our best wishes for a happy future. Congratulations to those who have welcomed little ones into their homes, and sympathy goes to , those who have suffered bereavement.

THE LUCERNIAN

With the year coming to a close, may I wish all Old Collegians health and happiness for 1965, and may you continue to give all the support you can to Morongo. Jean Fish, President. BALANCE SHEET, 1964 Income

OLD COLLEGIANS RE-UNION HORSHAM Thanks to Rhona Schilling (Bennett) and Monica (Bubbles) Gaulke the 30th May saw the first Re-union of Wimmera Old Collegians. Held at " Russelyn," Horsham, 52 gathered for afternoon tea and chatter, and- although it was cold outside, a warmth of friendship radiated throughout the reception room as friend greeted friend and girls met who had not seen each other since school days. There were thirteen apologies so the organisers were to be congratulated on the work they had put into the sending out of the invitations to such a widespread area. Miss Shaw, Mrs. Ruxton, Geelong President, Isabel Lang and Jean Rentoul travelled from Geelong and were all enthusiastic about the success of the venture. Miss Shaw spoke of doings at Morongo and the progress of the School, bringing in personalities which made the talk so interesting to those present. From her point of view it was most encouraging to find that such a number were still so interested in Morongo that they should travel many miles to take part in such a Re-union.

THE LUCERNIAN Afternoon tea brought a very happy afternoon to a close and it was the concensus of opinion that this should be the first of many such Re-unions. Old Collegians present at the First Wimmera Re-union held at " Russelyn," Horsham, on 30th May, 1964 — Morongo P.G.C.
