-Foreword
+**Foreword**
 Our Editor recently pointed out that unless he receives articles, etc. he cannot produce a magazine. As an ex-editor I sympathise with him. From my bushwalking memories I recall an incident that resulted from a series of slight errors in judgment by two experienced members of the Club. There is a story here and I believe the two members would be willing it should be told, as knowledge of those errors and their results could be of great value to new members. I am asking the Editor to refer the story to these two members before publication so, if you read of our adventures, you will know that it is with their consent.

 It was about mid-day when we reached Springwood and dutifully reported the matter to the local policeman. Although we told him we and the Club behind us, were handling the search ourselves and did not want any help from him, the policeman was most annoyed at the news that there was "another missing hiker" in his district. He was due to go off on leave that afternoon and now he would have to organise search parties. He would not listen to our denials of this, told us,
-"Remember, you must not move the body:"
+"Remember, you must not move the body."
 We certainly would not attempt to move the body and, when we found our friend, if we found she was ill or injured I would stay with her and the Leader would hurry back for help. "What size is this woman?" was the next question and his frown got even blacker When I replied: "She is bigger than I am".

 The RUDOLPH CUP was eventually held (after some dithering about location) on the Nepean near Wallacia. 25 entrants manned 5 (collapsible punt type) boats of various sizes and condition. The team of Miriam Steenbohm, Bill Ketas and Hermann Kanters showed great oarsmanship under extremely difficult conditions to win the Cup, which will be presented at the Annual Reunion:

 creature deserving of the title of homo sapiens mould have any difficulty in finding the hut, especially as a motor road leads right to the front door. However, that did not prevent us from aiming for a low hill in the mistaken belief that this was the volcano aforesaid (Ngauruhoe). This involved us in a long grinding climb up one side and down the other and all quite unnecessary, but good exercise. We reached the hut eventually, having to restrain Yarmak who insisted on cutting steps up every small incline on the muddy road "just for practice". Had tea and turned in early for a good night's sleep.

 We skirted round the base of Tongariro in an obliterating mist, heading for Keteheahi hot springs. By getting up-wind of the party, thereby giving his olfact apparatus a free go, Duncan was able to scent the springs through the mist while yet afar off. Unerringly he led us to a great gash in the mountain side in which great white steaming vents of concentrated hydrogen sulphide spurted and hissed. We had to hop rapidly from rock to rock surrounded on all sides by boiling mud pools, yellow sulphurous fumeroles panting and giving forth noxious fumes. This certainly much more intense and exciting than Rotorua.

 You've read the adventures of the Butler-Putt party's first week in N.Z. and we hope to publish in February the next episode concerning the serious business of climbing in the South Island.
 Those who would like to know more about N.Z. should read Tararua (Annual Journal of the Tararua Tramping Club, Wellington), particularly the description of Tongariro National Park. Copy available from the Librarian.
