-And listen, you whiskery hillbillies, for their stage oppearance the gentlemen of the Sydney Bush Walkers wore evening dress and had a tailored shave on the day of the concert. Also at Rene's party were the two who put on, at this concert, the finest spot of tragedy in the Club's theatrical history. They were young aristocrats awaiting the tumbril for the trip to Madam Guillotine. Their names - Marion Sutton (now Moroney), and Ian Malcolm. Yes, Rene's party waked up a host of memories. There is one deeply etched memory - on the banks of the Grose, one summer night in the long ago, when four girls standing back to the fire, face to the river, sang "Sweet and Low", __as written__, and sang it perfectly.  One at least of the four was with us at Rene's party - Win Chardon. And what a lot of faces Jean Austin's one candle power lightens up. Since the vanishment of Stoddie's Melody Maidens hill billy seems to be King Billy around the camp fire. I'm sure Mr. Schubert would not mind us having a half hour of "Lilac Time", the net that snared so many of Schubert's lovely and simple melodies. And every camp fire should have at least a half-hour of Gilbert and Sullivan quite unadulterated. (I move that the Canoe Club be raided and Roy Gaddelin - fiddle and bow - be forcibly taken and welded to the S.B.W.).+And listen, you whiskery hillbillies, for their stage appearance the gentlemen of the Sydney Bush Walkers wore evening dress and had a tailored shave on the day of the concert.

 Bean, of course, did some surprising things, and that bright spark of other days, Gordon Pritchard, was more flashing than ever. (A sad loss to the Club when G.P. dropped out.) The surprise of the night was Joan's Puppet Show - how that gal is sure steeped in the theatre! I can see some dreadful shocks coming when she puts S.B.W. puppets on the payroll. Bean, of course, did some surprising things, and that bright spark of other days, Gordon Pritchard, was more flashing than ever.
