+The meeting started at 8.23 p.m. with the President in the chair and about 47 members present.
 It opened with a welcome to Ron Knightley, who has been readmitted to active membership after being away in New Zealand, the Antarctic, South Australia and other places for six years.
-After the reading of the minutes containing the motion which declares shirts to be non-essentials, the President said his attentior had been drawn to a clause in the Federation Code of Ethics, to which we originally subscribed (You will read more about this in another article in this issus, Ed) The clause stated that walkers were not to appear scantily dressed in public.

-Federation. Tom Moppett moved that our delegates to Federation suggest that, in place of the normal type of Federation Annual, we investigate the publication of a booklet describing easy walks and giving general information about walking and the bush, and that tle S.B.W. undertake this work. Allan Hardie thought that bushwalking clubs were too exclusive. Many walkers were"burnt off" early in their walking careers. Some got into clubs by dint of perseverence and then dropped out. We should make entrance easy - like the Youth Hostels Association, and we could also imitate the sociability of the Hostels movement. Jim Hooper asked whether bushwalking was dropping off in other states, and finding it wasn't suggested it would be better to donate funds to a "so-called Sales Campaign." Grace Aird, Membership Secretary, said that members generally did not come from publicity - only one memer had come in through the article on bushwalking in the "Women's Weekly." Most come in through personal contact with members. An amendment to the effect that we offer to "co-operate in" the production of a booklet, rather than undertake it, was defeated. Alan Strom said the amendment would make it more difficult for the delegates to have the scheme adopted.

-The motion was carried.
 By this time our newest member, Garth Coulter, had arrived and was welcomed by the President.
 Next we had a new report - the Walks Secretary's monthly report, which was listened to with interest and appears on another page.
-After this Frank Rigby moved that we appoint a panel of four to look into the question of publicity for bushwalking. He was impressed by the success of an amateur society -which he knew, which had approached the A.D.C. and was not only allotted time, but paidfor it at the rate of a guinea a minute. He thought a lot of people would like to go bushwalking but didn't know where to go to join a club. The committee should not work for the S.B.W. only, butfot membership of all clubs. Jim Hooper thought the S.BAY. alone couldn't accomplish the necessary publicity. It would involve cash and should be a Federation matter Frank Rigby, Grace Aird, Jim Hooper and Tom Moppett were appointed to the Committee.
-Alex Colley thought that if we had a good Sunday walks programme it would encourage new meMbers, and moved that volunteers be called for to lead walks - if necessary over routes suggested by the Walks Secretary. Nine members volunteered, including the President who offered to lead two Sunday walks when no more that nine people volunteered.
