The Principal
STRATEGY R EVIEW The Strategy Review undertaken by th e College Council this year h as been completed after an exhaustive and exhausting process spanning six months and involving a great many members of the community. Fourteen committees, consisting of staff and Council working together, looked in depth at many aspects of the sc hool including the teaching of technology, outdoor education in the Senior School, building requirements, the Senior College concept (a separate Year 11 and 12 development), overseas students, gender issues, self-fundi ng, sharing of facilities, use of the current academic and recreational space, junior boarding, the optimal size of the school in terms of enrolment and area, and the impact of vocabon-oriented education. The Council considered the reports of all the committees at a weekend "retreat" at the Management Centre at Deakin University in mid-October. From this plenum, a document wi ll be put together for publication in the early new year. Building projects for the near future are already known, however. Council has a pproved the const ru ction of an Art/Craft Ce ntre at the Prep. School, overlooking the Barwon Valley and approva l has been given to proceed with plaml.ing for an indoor swimming pool complex at the Senior School. In addition, we are investigating th e establishmen t of a Kindergarten at Campbell House w hich, if it went ahead, would be in operation in 1995. 1994 promises to be an exciting yea r in the history of the College. STUDE T COMPUTI G I 1994 A significa n t p art of th e Stra tegy Review involved discussion of th e role played by technology in the mod ern process of education. The photograph on the front cover gives subs tance to the statements I have made previously about student com puting within the sc hool. Fu rth er to reports in previous editions, we are dismantling the computer laboratory known as CR2 and replacing it with mobile notebook computers that ca n be taken to th e seat of the learning. P(lge2
We s h a ll be u si n g IBM co mpatible machinery w ith 486 processor an d we shall support "Word " and "Excel" in the "Wi nd ows" en viron ment as th e wo rd processing and sp rea d s hee t so ftwar e packages respecti vely. We are enco ur ag in g parents to purc h ase th e m ac hin e ry for th e ir children though I wou ld urge them not to embark o n th a t p rocess just ye t because we are curr entl y nego tiatin g wit h supp li ers to secur e the bes t d ea l possible; parents shou ld wait until they have knowledge of th at before m aki ng their moves, therefore. Purchase will not be mandatory; th ere w ill be no tebooks for u se within th e school. There is no doubt that this is the "way to the future". PREFECTS 1994 The task of choosing th e student leaders w ithin the school is n ever a n easy one. We are blessed with rich es and there are always m any m o re possibl e candidates than th ose chosen. David Neal has been appointed School Captain with Prue Johns ton e a nd Stewart H arris as Vice-Captains. They will be supported by: Rhiannon Bourke, Clare Dowling, David Hend erson, Jane H enderso n, Abbie Hu xley, ick Jarman, Brooke Jolly, Ju stine Kelly, Ro mn ey elson, Ross Quail, Clinton Peake, Andrea Rowan and Emma Sears. This is a rather larger initial group than usual but [ am still hoping that I may be ab le to appoi nt o th e rs as the yea r unfolds. VICTORIA CERTIFICATE OF EDUCATION Th e VCE ha s not been wi thout its difficulties this year, especially in terms of the process of assessment. The method by which comparability of results is "guaranteed " across the State verification - has led to so me glaring in consistencies, most of which ha ve been iro n ed o ut only af te r strong protes ts have been lodged on behalf of students by the school. As a result of these difficulties, th e Board of Studies ha s d ecid ed to modify assessment procedures for 1994. There wi ll b e two tes ts of genera 1 co mpetencies in the middle of th e yea r that will se t th e parameters by w hi ch grades may be awarded for the internally-a ssessed CATs. If th e g rades awarded for these CATs do not conform to those pa rame ters then the work will be called in and assessed independently. The other major change sees the whole of th e yea r's work capable of being exa mined by the Test CAT a t the end of the year.
AD ASTRA There is no doubt that th ese mod ifications wi ll have a n impact o n th e way in whic h variou s tudies are ta ug ht a nd many of us are longing for the day w hen what happens in two successiv yea rs is the sa me! PARENTS ' ASSOCIATIONS As a result of the formation of the new s upportin g body, " Friend s of th e Co llege", th e Parents' a nd Friends ' Associations wi ll be known in th e futme as the Parents' Associations. Again this year, tho se Assoc iation s have bee n ex trao rdinari ly gene ro us in the items that they have fund ed within the College. I tak this oppo rtlU1.ity, albeit briefly, to express m y g ratitude for th e immense amount of goo dwill gene rated by the Parents' Associations. STAFF • We congratulate Ir Ian Parr on hi s appointment as Head of Eng li s h at Geelong Grammar Sc hoo l th o u g h we shall be sad to see Helen, Ian and their childr en dep a rt from the College community. His place as a tutor in Mackie wi ll be taken by Mr Greg Sm ith a nd we welcome Greg, Denise and th eir children to the "li ve-in" family . Mrs Therese Fole y a nd Mrs Jo Panckridge take maternity leave h'om the end of the year and we wish them great happin ess with th e expansion in their fami lies. Miss Lynne Ord takes a year's leave of absence to tour overseas w ith her husband-to-be. At the Prepa ratory School, because of the pressure of emolment numbers, three ex tra cla sses have been fo rmed, on e each of Year 2, Year 4/5 and Year 7. • STUDENT TOURS Both the netball 1st VII a nd the girls' hockey 1st XI are to uring New Zealand next year and they are indulging in some fund-raising.

SPEECH DA Y ADDRESS TO THE SCHOOL BY THE CHAIRMA OF THE COUNCIL MR GARNET FIELDING
ed uca ti on in College life. It distinguishes tru e co-education from th e co-enrolment of girls and boys in the same school. Coed ucation is a philosophy based upon mutu al respect independent of gender, fairnes s of opportuni ty and fairness of recognition. The College aims to encourage its students to reflect this philosop hy in their la ter famil y life, in the workp lace and in the community at large. School Size As to sc ho ol s ize, we hold that the ethos of the school could be damaged if it were to become too big. Like all independent schools the College has felt the bite of the recession, but I am happy to report to yo u th at enr ol m ents are steadil y rising again. The family feeling th at has charac terised thi s School for gene ra ti o n s must never be los t. Not seekin g to be empir e bu ild ers, we are interes ted in quality, rather than quantity. At the sa me time there is much to be done to open up the sc hool thr ough bursaries and scholarships. Community We want th e school to be mo re open to the general COllU11W1ity, no t only because there may be direct tangib le benefits for it in doing so, but beca use there is i..ntrinsic m erit in the sc hool integrating well in the communi ty whi ch it seeks to serve. Without a ttenuating its connecti ons with the metropolitan uni versi ties the school will d evelop a co-opera tive relationship with Dea kin w ith a view to enha ncin g the comprehensive range of ed uca tio nal servi ces available to Greater Geelong. Technology We wis h to b e at th e forefront of techno logica l advance a nd to take advantage, w herever it m ay be seized, of usin g th e la tes t technology not only as the subject of lea rnin g but as an insh·ument in the process of edu cation. Outdoor Education We embrace ou tdoor ed u ca tion as a curricular experience and it will become part of life at th e Seni or School, building upo n the very successful programme at th e Prepara tor y School. \Ale w is h s tud e nts to h ave th e opportunity to develop a lasting lU1d erstanding of, and
Mr Button , Prin cip al, Lad ies a nd Ge ntl e m e n of th e S taff, Ladies a nd Gentl emen, members of the schoo l. A l am very pleased to welcome yo u to ~peech Day. At the outset I wish to thank th e Staff for their professional dedi ca ti on to, and their concern fo r, th e students. In particular I wish to thank Mr Gi lson and Mr Hu g hes for th eir outs tanding wo rk. In this expression of gra titude I include th e ad ministrati ve staff, without w hom th e School would not get very far. 1t is with regret that we say farewell to Mr Bob G r ant, the Dir ec to r o f th e College Fou nd ation, w ho retires at th e end of the year. H e was present at th e crea tion, as it were, and he has worked unremittingl y for th e Foundatio n ever s in ce. He h as identified him se lf absolutely with th e ca use of promoting th e inter es ts of the College. Th e Foundation is close to the very hea rt of th e Co ll ege co mmunity and its clear • ~ccess is evidence of our d ebt to Bob. We owe him much. We thank him . We wish him well. Cou ncil Policy I wis h to tell yo u so methin g of the College Council. Its responsibility as the governin g body is to se t th e p olicy of the College. What is policy? Policy m ay be sa id to be the fram ework within which operational decisions are mad e. Strategy Plan Review This year we have condu cted a Review of the Str a tegy Plan w hi ch we es tabli sh ed in 1986. We widened th e review process in o rd er to examin e a lar ge number o f areas of p olicy. A special and rewardi n g feature of th e review has been the close involvement of the Staff working together w ith members of Co un cil in thi s process of exalTl.ination and debate. Co-edu ca tio n As a resu It of the 1993 Rev iew the Co un cil r eaffi rm s th e prima cy o f co-
sy mpathy with, the natural environment and the opportun it y to learn to be resourceful and self-reliant in that environment. Boarding School The College wi ll remain a boarding school in order that those students, who by reason of distance or personal circums tan ce might not otherwise be able to come here, may ha ve th e advantage of a Geelong College education. Building Programme Over the next seven years there will be a building programme but Council will remain, as always, sensitive to costs. n1e beauty - the grea t beauty of the two sites will not be compromised. We live in a competitive environment and we must co ntinu e to reinforce our abili ty to offer a first-quality education. To stand still is to fall behind and that is what we must never do. Liberal Edu cation The Council affirms that the school will continu e to offer a liberal education and encourage students to develop cultural interests and skills. I think it fair to say tha t the school has never been a forcing house for learning, although its academic standin g is very hi gh, and it ha s never been a forcing hOllse for sport although it enjoys ample success. But if it s hould ever lose it cultural edge, it will be diminished and our students s hall be very much the poorer. One hopes that the students whom we farewell today and whom we wish so well, consider that the College has made a real contribu ti on to their feel for life and to their understanding of what humankind has thought, done, w ritten and sW1g. And so with vision, sound leade rsh.ip, careful management, carefu l planning, and the support from its community that the College deserves, we shall have every ch a n ce of realising our aim to be Austra lia's finest co-educational school. Finally, [ wish to thank the Principal for hi s ceaseless co mmitment to his high task. H e leads the school with firmness yet sensitivity, colour yet dignity. It is our good fortune that he is ours.

Senior School THE AUSTI GRAY CE TRE The Austin Gray entre offers a wide range of practical and artistic pursuits. Students at the College may choose from a range of disciplines - Ceramics, Graphic Communication, Painting, Textiles and Woodwork. Under a new timetable, instituted in 1991, every Year 9 and 10 student now undertakes at least one subject in the A.G.C. Also students now spend one triple period per week in the A.G.C., a much more productive block than the previous four singles. The benefits of these changes were evident in a recent exhibition of Year 10 work in the College Gallery. The quality and technical accomplishment of the work on show bears witness to what can be achieved when students are given the opporrwuty to develop the artistic side of their being, and to the enthusiasm with which they take up this challenge.
Outside the no rmal curri culum , the A.G.C. also offers, to both studen ts and members of the public, the facilities of the House of Guilds. The " HOG " is a longstanding instil"l.ltion at the College, providing a well-equipped workshop for wood and metalwork, as well as a wide range of other craft activities. This yea r a numb e r of Year 10 Commerce studen ts ha ve take n advantage of the HOG's facilities. Two particular students produced seventytwo chopping boards as the 'currency' for their sma ll business project, which went on to become a booming success. Many other stud ents continu e to use the HOG at lunchtimes, after school and on weekends, producing every thing from planter boxes to cabinets and bookcases. Any Old Collegians interested in making use of the facilities in the HOG should contact the Warden, Mr Philip Taylor, on (052) 263125.

Two other College records were broken by Ka therin e Da vis U17 100m 12.94s and Jane Henderson U17 400m 61.81s.
The 1993 seaso n produced many excellent performances as we ll as an improved pla cing of eighth in the APS competition.

The 1993 debating season proved to be a very s u ccessfu l one for th e four College tea ms w hich took part in th e Debaters ' Association of Vi ctoria (O.A.V.) Interschool Competition. Approximately 700 tea ms participate in th e schools' competition, and these are sp r ead over four g rades w hi ch co rrespond t o Year le ve l s. Schoo ls belong to regions and the College participates in the Scotch College region along wi th 13 o th er sch ools . All teams must debate in five debates each, which begin in March and go through to August. Run on a "sudden dea th" basis, the competition resu lt entitl es all w innin g tea ms to pro ceed to th e Sta te final s whic h are held in late Augus t/ea rly September. All in all, College tea ms notch ed up 15 wins from 20 debates and we also won 13 Best Speaker awards . All te a m s are to be a pplauded for their fine efforts.
HARD TIMES ... BUT aT FOR ALL LOCAL BUSINESSES Whilst many of Geelong' s firms are feeling the pinch of recession, at least some are experiencing strong sales. This was also true of the many small busi nesses set up by Year 10 Commerce students. 120 boys and girls werc required to estab lish and run a sole proprietorship or partnership as a component in their s tudi es of Commerce. It involved r esearch in g an idea, financing the en terprise, developing a prod uct, marketing, keeping financial records and presenting a business report. This handson app roach cr eated a real learning experience, and helped to cultivate initiative and self-relia nce. Quality, o rganisation and innovation were reflected in many projects. Brand names included Easy Edge, Pilco, Flip Klips, Gurrie's Christmas Cards , Canterbury Athe na, Stokie's Yolkies, Rose Sta nd Company, Cosmic Candles, Swe ll s Surf Wax and Uncle Sam ' s Strawberr y Jam. Major prize winners we r e a th an Lambert, Athena Lucas, Joshua Gurrie and Luke O'Orsa. Stud ent effort s were also channelled towards helping the needy. Over 51300 was raised for three charities - 'Cottage by th e Sea' at Queenscliffe, Geelong Bethany Homes and the Fred Hollows Foundation.
HOSPITALITYTRAI II G Twenty-seven Years 11 and 12 students volunteered to participate in an introductory Hospitality Traini ng course, held over tlu'ee days, between the end of Year 11 exams and the commencement of the Year 12 programme. National Hospitality Training ran the course w hich gave stu dents some of the background and practical skills of the ho spita lit y industry. In cluded in the co ur se was a tour of Geelong's Ambassador Hotel aJ1d instruction by Mr Chris Barnes from Australian Wine Education a nd Training. By the end of the course, the students were ab le to serve lunch at the Heads of Hous es m eeti ng in a quite expert fashion. Another most va luable opportunity for future careers or part-time work.

PROFILE - AMA DA SWANEY Amanda Swaney recently appeared in the Geelong press under the heading "Ladv of Excellence". An~anda is English Co-ordinator at the Middle School, and she was presented with the 1993 Award of Excellence of the Geelong Region Group of the Australian College of Education. The award recognises outstanding performance by practising educators. Amanda first came to the College in 1977 and taught until 1980. After tea ching in England, she returned to the staff and her present position in 1987. As the Co-ordinator of the English Department, Amanda carries responsibility for ensuring the implementation, review and improvement of curriculum in this major area. One of the most influential aspects of Amanda's contribution in the school has been through her role as a literature consultant for primary and junior secondary teachers. As a direct result of her work with teachers and children, and through the fine example she sets, quality children ' s literature plays a central role in the curriculum of our school. Amanda's excellent literary skills and creative talents are put to use also through the editorial work she undertakes for the weekly Preparatory School Blillelill, the College Newsleller, the Preparatory School section of Ad Astra and the Preparatory School Pegaslis magazine. She also takes most of the photographs used in these publications. Amanda has been Active in a number of professional associations, holding executive positions. She has written for the Times EduCIIlionol Slipplel1lent and The Age, and is in demand as a speaker at worksllops, seminars and conferences . Amanda's book, Shoring poelry with children, was pub lished by Ashton Scholastic in October 1991 and has since been reprinted. The College is indeed fo rtunate to have teachers of this calibre.

Friends of the College FRIE DS OF THE COLLEGE The "Friends of the College" celebrated its formation with a dinner in the College Dining Hall. Though all those interested in the College were invited to attend by the Ad Astra flyer, parents of school leavers of last year and five years ago received personal letters and this will be the usual fOl-mat. The idea is to provide an opportunity for parents and Old Collegians to meet with friends mad e at the College, some of whom do not have another opportunity to get together. The current Parents' Committee provided th e catering and gave some financial assistance.
Two fu nctions are planned for 1994:

Parents' Association THE GEELONG COLLEGE PARENTS' ASSOCIA nON (SE IOR SCHOOL) The name of this Association has been changed , now that "The Friends of the College " is in its inaugural year as a separate organisation. For a long time the eAisting Parent' & Friends' Association has involved parents, both at Middle School and Senior School levels, so the change seems appropriate. This Association has had an extremely busy but rewarding year organising and planning many functions to raise funds to assist the school with many purchases of new equipment, but also to promote situations where parents may interact socially with each other. We have planned and catered for socia l dinners for parents of Years 9,10, 11 and boarders, also the Friends of the College and the Year 12 Dinner. There has been a raffle for a handcarved tapestry covered stool , donated by parent Vasili Bagu, over recent months. The stool has been won by Phillipa Challis. A recent move has also been the promotion of College memorabilia at Association functions. The Used Clothing Pool has continued to operate under the umbrella of this Association and has had a remarkably successful year in 1993. This is largely due to the efforts of Mrs Judi Idle and her team of assistants. All in all we have purchased a large
Above: Mrs Judi Idle number of items for various departments throughout the year, the most recent items being for use in the sta ge productions (Drama, e tc) a lighting control desk and dimmer rack. The most recent events in Term IV have been the Teenage Seminar and th e Valedictory evening. The special seminar titled "Understanding Your Teenager" was conducted by Graham Hyman on 19 October and was a combined Middle School and Senior School function. Over 220 people were highly entertained and enthralled by the energetic Mr H yman: he managed to impart to all in attendance a humorous, but realistic,

look at teenage lives an d ensured that everyone had food for thought afte r th evening was over. The Year 12 Valedicto ry Dinner held at Deakin University was planned by our sub-committee led by Mrs H ea th e r Christmas . A record attenda nce of 427 was n o ted, a nd it was a wonderful evening for families to mark th e end of their child's schoolday . Many projects are currently being prepared for next year. We are having pure wool Gordon Ta rt an "Col lege Rugs" made up for the very last tim e and they will be available early next year fo r the excellent price of $55. ew design College aprons are being printed and should be available at the same time as the rugs. These heavy cotton "College Green" aprons will be of a generous size and will feature the schoo l crest a nd colou rs - price approx. $16. One of ou r special projects for this year has been the planning of an all purpose banner w hi ch can be moved about to various functions and situations of importance. The banner, accompa ni ed by a solid timber stand, was presented to the College at the Annual General Meeting in ovember. It features an elaborately appliqued College Coat of Arms on a dark green background with gold cords and tassles adorning the banner. Other donations to the school have been: Macintosh co mput e r screen Development Office; Stephenson's screen - Geography Department; microscopes - Biology Department; weight training equipment - P.E. Department; spectator sea ts at the tennis courts; lighting con tr ol desk and dimming rack for use in Morrison H all Drama Department and a video recorder - Mossgiel Boarding House.

In September 1912, th e Ge n era I Assemb ly of the Presbyterian Church in Aush'alia accepted a repo rt and proposition from th e Rev. Joh n Fly nn o ut of which was establis hed th e Aus tra li a n Inland Mission . The wo rk of the Mission, now known as Frontie r Services of th e Uniting Church in Aush'a li a, is genera lly well known throughout the country, as it minis ters to the w id e ranging needs of th e inhabitants of the rugged and harsh outback areas of the con tinent. Perhaps it is not so wel l known that considerable influence in the Assembl y decision was exercised by Frank Rolland who was able to p rovide sig nifi ca nt support to Flynn's proposa ls o ut of his first hand experiences as Agent for the Smith of Ounesk Nlission in the Beltana region of South Australi a and from his special activities in Broome on behalf of the Pr esby terian Churc h in Western Australia. From that early period there ex ists a real and specia l connectio n be twee n Geelong, the College and the initial es tablishment of the Austral ian Inl and Mission. This connect ion has been enhanced through the years as m en and women from Gee long have und erta ken periods of se r vice in vario u s areas of A.LM. activity. The Commemorative cairn a t Bel tana reads "To the Glory of God and ill commemoratioll of the historic work of the Smith and OUllesk Mission in this area cOlllmenced by Robert Mitchell 1895-99 a/'/d followed by others including J.B.

Erected in proud tribute by the exploration socieh) of Geelorlg College Victoria 0/,/18th May 1961."
OLDEST OLD COLLEGIA In the previous edition of Ad Astra 1 reported that Lawrence Mountjoy (09) was the oldest Old Collegian, (he was the oldest recorded on the College data base). When Mrs Mountjoy read the article she informed me that this was not so as a co.usin of Lawrence, Edwin Chapman Harris (04), was born in 1890 and was at the College in 1904. He was not on the College data base bu t is recorded in the original register. Rev. "Chappy" Harris followed in his father's footsteps as a Baptist minister and was recognised some years ago for 75 years service to the ministry. Rev. Harris' grandfather, Mr Thomas Harris, came to Geelong in 1852. There were seven children in his family. Three of the sons became Baptist ministers and three daughters were teachers. Eldest daughter, Ann, established the ewtown Ladies' College in 1880. Ella became governess with the Mountjoy family, married into the family and was the mother of Lawrence Mountjoy who was born at ewtown Ladies' College (during school holidays) in 1897. The Presbyterian Committee purchased the Newtown Ladies' College in 1920 and it became Morongo Presbyterian Girls' College. Rev. Harris obvious ly enjoyed reminiscing to Paul Sheahan and Bob Grant about the College, his family and descendants. He remembers the Principal, Norman Morrison, as a wonderful man.

ARCHIVES This early photograph by "Turner's ew Portrait Rooms" was given to the College by John Robertson whose brother S.W. "Wilkie" (29) attended the College 1928-31 and rowed in the 1st VIJ] 1930-31. John writes that he found it among some old family photographs which were taken in the mid 1860's. George Morrison was from an academic family in Scotland and his broth er, Alexander Morrison, was the Principal of Scotch College, Melbourne. George was appointed Principal w hen the scho ol started in Knowle House, Skene Street, in 1861, and it had immediate academic success. He became owner of the College in 1864 and guided its development until his death in 1898, when his son, orman, became Principal. George Morrison and three of his brothers received the degree of Doctor of Law from the University of Aberdeen in recognition of their outstanding work in education.

The original development plan allowed for St. Philip's to become a provider of education in due course. In 1989 students enrolled in Years 7 to 9, secondary with the first Year 12 s tud ents enrolling in '1992. Currently, 1993, there is an enrolment of 450, Years 7 to 12; th ere are 77 boarders of whom approximately 20 attend primary and other secondary schools in Alice Springs. Th e initial concept of operating as a n hostel remains as part of the school's charter. The 20 acre site now includes significant building development and, generally speaking, th e facilities compare favourably with other similar schools in the eastern and southern s tates. There is a wide curriculum a nd most students take part in exh'a-curricular activities in much the same fashion as their counterparts in Ceelong. There is a significant music programme and groups from the Col l ege regularly engage in performances within the community. The school lacks the " benefits " of access to an A.P.5./ A.C.5. style of sports competition but s tud ents are encouraged to become participants in local sporting teams: several of the s tud ents have represen ted the town and the Territory in sta te and nati ona l competitions, including such sports as baseball, netball and athl etics. The "connection" has been further d evelo p ed during the past two years, August 1991 to August 1993, by the exBursar, Bruce Jamieson, spending significa nt periods of time assisting the Principal and a u neil to improve the
AD ASTRA financial and accounting processes, including operating and capital budgets and the installation of a more efficient and effective busines computer system. More recently, Mr June Champness, a former member of the College academic staff, spent some time in Alice Springs with her husband , Dr Len Champness, and was able to give St Philip's valuable tutoring ass istance. The Council of St Philip's is giving consideration to both a draft Master Plan for th e ultimate development of the College property and a feasibility study prepared as a forerunner to the development of a Marketing Plan to enhance the image of the College within the community as a whole. Much needs to be done to ensure that the facilities, in the long term, are equal to the ca lls that the community will place

Alice Springs is an interes ting town with a population of some 24,000 people, comparted with about 9-10,000 in 1964. However, because of the nature of the town the population tend s to be rather mobile although there is a good sound core of residents who thrive in the conditions peculiar to that part of the continent. Bruce Jamieson has experienced both extremes: a long spell, fourteen days, of 40 degrees Celcius during February '92, against an afternoon temperature of nine degrees Celcius in JLUle '93. The town of Alice Springs and its surrou ndings is full of many interesting reminders of past settlements, gold mines and the like and, of course, the indescribable beauty of the magnificent scenery. Anyone travelling in the area is encouraged to visit St Philip's and to continue and maintain the cOlU1ection commenced so long ago by Frank Rolland. - Bruce Jamieson
