+At the Annual Meeting of Council on July 15th the following new officers were elected for the ensuing twelve months:
+  * President; Mr Oliver Wyndham (Rucksack Club)
+  * Vice President, Miss Dorothy Lawry (S.B.W.)
+  * Hon.Treasurer, Mr W. (Bill) Watson (Rover Ramblers)
+  * Parks & Playgrounds.Representative, Mr Reid (Bush Club).
+Mrs Merle Iredale was persuaded to remain in office as Hon. Secretary for another month or so until a successor can be found, and Miss Joyce Kennedy was re-elected Assistant Secretary.
+Mr R. Tompsitt of the Rucksack Club is now Business Manager for the Publications Committee.
+The Trustees of Bouddi Natural Park seem to have what it takes! In their Annual Report they note another addition of 40 acres to the south, which makes the total area of this park now 925 acres. The original dedication in 1936 was only 650 acres! The Trustees expressed their thanks for the work done by those bushwalkers who attended the working bees this year and Miss Byles announced that next year there would be another working bee on May 2nd and 3rd!
-Photographers and The Water Shortage 00.
+The Federation's representations regarding threatened timber cutting on the top of Mt Coricudgy have brought forth the reply that the timber is needed for defence purposes but the cutting will be supervised by officers of the Forestry Commission with due regard for the danger of soil erosion. The reply came from Mr Clayton, the Director of the Soil Conservation Service, who recently lectured to the SBW and suggested that bushwalkers should assist in conserving the beauties of our land, so it is felt that the position at Mt Coricudgy will be watched efficiently.

+When Stoddy Jnr. writes for the Bushwalker you may be sure it's something interesting. This was so in our July issue, but the unusual part is that she wants her ideas to "call forth protests", while her guarded statements  seem to foretell any protest.
 Alter hearing so many discussions at the campfire, our writer of last month should be commended on bringing the subject to these pages.
-The statement reading:- "Nobody can lay down a'diet to suit everyone",.is obviously true, because individuals vary, while the 'trained dietitians" she mentions seem to vary more so.
-For anyonewith a vigorous digestion doing eight hours, mainly brainwork, per day, the food combinations outlined, seed eminently suitable.
+The statement reading: "Nobody can lay down a diet to suit everyone", is obviously true, because individuals vary, while the "trained dietitians" she mentions seem to vary more so.
-Those of us not so fortunate should avoid the combination at a single meal of too many "rich" foods, such as bacon And ,eggs, 'ad toast; meat and_ milk puddings etc
-The only paragraph which invite's real criticism, however, is the one which states that long walking trips "make it necessary to overbalance the diet in the carbohydrate direction." In everyday routine we see the people who continually eat these stardhy products, and they constantly complain of stiffness in their muscles. Therefore, I say, to get satisfying results from our walking trip we must co-ordinate our eating with our exercise. An excess of refined sugar, and particularly starches, clogs the tissues, and forms fatty tissue, which is not muscular tissue.

 Camping at Corral Swamp on the Saturday night I think we put in the coldest night any of us had ever experienced and the next morning we surveyed a frost-covered world. During the night I had been wishing that the numerous parcels of iron pitons, chains, picks and ropes which went to make up John's load for the weekend, could have been, by the wave of a magician's wand, transposed into eiderdowns, etc. It was the first time some of us had seen a hoar frost. It was inches deep and pieces of it, brought back to the lazy ones still recumbent in sleeping bags, presented a pretty sight, together with what appeared to be panes of glass, but in reality were pieces of the top layer of the ice covered pool.
-All food left out during_the night was covered with frost - oranges having a pretty white covering and even the eggs, when broken, would not leave their shells but had to be dug out as though they had been hard boiled.
+All food left out during the night was covered with frost - oranges having a pretty white covering and even the eggs, when broken, would not leave their shells but had to be dug out as though they had been hard boiled.
 All these incidents caused quite a lot of excitement at the moment, but they paled into insignificance the following morning. Len and John had risen early as there was much work still to be done. We had been much warmer this night - wearing everything we possessed - but the frost was just as thick. Len, in making a hasty exit from his tent broke the tent pole - when, lo and behold, up stood the tent all by its little self. Sounds a tall story but was witnessed by several very reliable people! The poor tent was frozen stiff, as were the spectators, until a cheery fire was going and human beings as well as food stuffs were thawed out.
-Now to go back to the Ladders - John and Len worked all day Sunday - it sounded like the Woodpecker's Song - chip, chip into the rock face.

+Now to go back to the Ladders - John and Len worked all day Sunday - it sounded like the Woodpecker's Song - chip, chip into the rock face. We girls had leisurely followed them on from Corral Swamp guided by little tin arrows placed on suitable trees. Near the end of the track, to make sure we were on the correct route, we went
 out on to an overhanging point and looked across to where we thought they should be working. Lola spotted a dark form which appeared to be swaying over a sheer drop of many hundreds of feet and almost swooned when she decided that it was Jack suspended on a rope. Now quickly following our objective we reached Carlons Head and were very relieved to find the dark object was merely a jutting tree trunk which either our vivid imaginations or imperfect eyesight had visualised as John's body. He certainly was suspended by a rope but had quite a lot of terra firma not very far below him and was calmly digging footholds in the cliff face, and did not present the terrifying spectacle we had expected to see.

 Len was below shouting instructions as to where the left leg should be lowered to - when on practically every occasion it was the right leg which we unfortunately had at our disposal. However, despite the fact that they had not had time to put in sufficient pitons until the following day, the descent was made quite easily and without mishap. It was now dark and we had a slithery, slippery slide down Carlon's all at the end of a lovely shimmery, sunny day. It had been enjoyed by all - with just a touch of suspense and excitement to give it flavour - as needs the egg a pinch of salt.
-The next morning John, Len and Dot too this time left early and walked across crackling, frost-covered ground and did not mind the climb up to Carlons Head to warm their frozen bodies. Len did noble work over the sulphur pot, handing up the hot brew to John to enable him to set in the pitons. Dot-kept the fire burning merrily and egged the workers on by talking about the delicious lunch she was preparing. The poor things still had an aroma of sulphur surrounding them many hours later.

-When we lazy ones arrived at lunch time we found our hard working, pals had fitted sufficient pitons to make the climb easier than the previous day and, though not yet finished to John's satisfactioh, it was easily negotiable. So ended a weekend of glorious weather, with much hard work for the two ring-leaders, but, judging by the talk coming home in the train, a weekend of perfect enjoyment for all concerned.
