-There were no new members to welcome, but we did have a new Assistant Secretary - Helen Mel/laugh - who helped out at the September meeting, and was appointed Assistant. Secretary at the last Committee meeting.

 The minutes of the last meeting raised some debatable points. The proposal to blaze a trail along the White Dog ridge had been raised at Federation and Paul Barnes had pointed out that it was illegal, because the White Dog ridge was within two miles of stored water. Bob Duncan pointed out that it would probably not be long before there was a bull-dozed track there anyway.
-Another matter left over from last meeting was the purchase of public address system for the Club room. Frank Ashdown said it was difficult to hear some of the speakers, particularly when they were not addressing the audience directly, as, for instance, when a person was showing his slides and speaking about them. Frank had posted several systems ranging in cost from L40 to Er and considered that one which would have three speakers mounted over the screen (cost E5O) would be satisfactory. John White thought that an amplification system was not really necessary - we could hire one for the few occasions when it was really needed. Colin Putt addressed the Chairman from the far corner of the room in moderate tones and asked could he be heard? He could be heard even though he was not trying and so, he said, could anyone with ordinary lungs. The system would be just something else to play with, but it might be nice to play a tape-recording of a general meeting on every second Wednesday of the month, instead of holding a

Frank Ashdown said it was difficult to hear some of the speakers, particularly when they were not addressing the audience directly, as, for instance, when a person was showing his slides and speaking about them. Frank had posted several systems ranging in cost from £40 to £77 and considered that one which would have three speakers mounted over the screen (cost £5O) would be satisfactory.

 new one every time. Ron Kenneally suggested cardboard megaphones for speakers, and Bob Jones favoured ear trumpets too for the listeners. The motion for the acquisition of a sound system was then put and lost. We shall just have to get along without microphones, speaker megaphones and ear trumpets and do deep- breathing exercises instead.
-The Treasurer's report revealed that our bank balance is 290, and the Social Secretary reported a most sociable month, with a theatre party, a ball and other activities. The Walk's Secretary told us that 80 members, 20 prospectives and 8 visitors had been on the track last month, about half of them at the walking trial.

 Frank Young then referred to the difficulty experienced by latecomers to Club meetings in getting into the hall, let alone finding a seat, and suggested that extra seats should be put in the hall for them. It was decided that more seats should be arranged, and Frank Ashdown suggested that all who voted for the motion do the arranging.

 memories of those who heard it. Leaders of the Outward Bound Movement in the audience were no doubt wishing that they could transfer their terrain from Hawkesbury River to Antarctica - after all, a good slice of it is Australian territory. The scope there for adventurous living would be terrific.
 By 11 p m. the party began to break up and depart for home, everyone declaring it a truly mighty evening, -which can always be expected when it is Puttarganised, and many people the richer for having met such a fine chap as Bob Cawley.
