    Gordon Bray AM Australia's ‘Voice of Rugby', Speaker & MC Gordon Bray AM is a respected and versatile sports commentator, journalist, author, business ambassador and, having called more than 400 Rugby Internationals, Australia’s ‘Voice of Rugby’. Gordon began his broadcasting career as a Specialist Trainee with ABC Sport in Sydney in 1969. After completing his cadetship he was promoted to Hobart for a four-year stint where he initially called Aussie Rules, then everything from wood-chopping and power boats to hockey and hot air ballooning. Towards the end of his Tasmanian posting he won selection for the ABC’s broadcast team at the Commonwealth Games in Christchurch and has since covered ten Olympics, both Summer and Winter, plus five Commonwealth Games. In 1976 Gordon paid his own way to France with the Wallabies and called both rugby internationals live to Australia on ABC radio. Earlier that year he attended his first Olympics in Montreal as the youngest member of the combined Australian Television team. He covered the yachting regatta for radio and television and at the start of the Games was afforded the honour of presenting the historic first live overseas colour sports transmission to Australia. When ABC colleague Norman May retired from TV rugby commentary in 1980 Gordon stepped into the role and over the next three and a half decades became known as Australia’s ‘Voice of Rugby’, calling more than 400 test matches.

  • Chapter Eleven an Angel in Tombstone 1880 – 1881
    Baker/Toughnut Angel/11 1 Chapter Eleven An Angel in Tombstone 1880 – 1881 Tombstone, Arizona Territory, 1800s (Courtesy Tombstone Courthouse) Nellie stepped off the stage onto Allen Street’s dusty board sidewalk. She turned to catch her carpetbag when the stage driver lifted it down, but stumbled over the hem of her skirt into the path of a dark-haired man with a full mustache. The stranger grabbed Baker/Toughnut Angel/11 2 her waist. “Whoa. Welcome to Tombstone! Got your balance there, Ma’am?” Nellie pulled her traveling skirt out from under her button-down shoe and noticed the man wore a silver star on his blue shirt. He took her grip from the driver and set it on the sidewalk. “My name’s Virgil Earp.” Next to him two other men attempted not to laugh. Virgil smiled, and indicated the other two with his hand. “May I present my brother, Wyatt, and Doc Holliday?” Earp, not a common name. These must be the Earps who had served as lawmen in Dodge City. She’d read newspaper articles and one of T.J.’s dime novels about Wyatt Earp. Doc Holliday stopped stamping his black boots to remove the dust, bowed at the waist and swept his bowler hat from his head. He smelled of leather and, what was that? Sage? “Indeed, welcome to Tombstone, lovely lady.” He drawled in a bass voice from under another wide black mustache. That made Nellie think of how Papa had always joked that men with mustaches were trying to hide something -- their upper lips.

Visitor Dave Hollister from Lakes and Pines Division joined out-of-town Division members Tom Adams and Roger Meekhof as we greeted the newest members to TCA and/or the Division: Doug Hayes, Terry Bunish, Herb Andreen, Dave Kuszynski, and Bill Richardson.

He also stated that he is making videos of his layout in Paulden. The next item was the spring Auctions. There will be a regular April Pizza Meetza with members selling their items; however, the auction of the primo items from Sun City will be put off until “maybe” May.
