    5887 Urgtelatuwo Aeevmbtg Tuesday, 17 November 1987 THE SPEAKER (Mr Barnett) took the Chair at 2. 15 pm, and read prayers. FORESTS Preservation:Petition DR LAWRENCE (Subiaco) [2.16 pm]: I have a petition couched in the following terms -- We, the undersigned, support: 1. Greater Government efforts to protect Western Australia's mature native forest heritage. The SPEAKER: Order! I do not know whether members have noticed it or not, but at the commencement of sittings it is particularly difficult to hear members in respect of the delivery of petitions and often in respect of notices and the next sets of events that happen. I wonder if we could have a little less background conversation and a little more volume from the members who are making the delivery so that our guests can also hear and understand what is going on. Dr LAWRENCE: The petition continues -- 2. An expanded National Park and Nature Reserve system to include all CALM's proposed reserves with additional areas in the wandoo, southern jarrah and karri forests. 3. An independent inquiry into Western Australia's woodchip/tirnber industries and forest management. 4. Restructuring of Western Australia's woodchip industry so that it only uses sawmill residues and resources from plantations established on already cleared land. Your petitioners, therefore, humbly pray that you will give this manoer your earnest attention and your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray. The petition bears 3 664 signatures and I certify that it conforms to the Standing Orders of the Legislative Assembly. The SPEAKER: I direct that the petition be brought to the Table of the House.

  • Empire, Amateurism and Reggie Walker, the ‘Little Natalian’ Sprinter
    Making the Transition: Empire, Amateurism and Reggie Walker, the ‘Little Natalian’ Sprinter. Deborah Marie Pitchford Manchester Metropolitan University Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of an MA by Research September 2013 Making the Transition: Empire, Amateurism and Reggie Walker, the ‘Little Natalian’ Sprinter. Abstract: This thesis utilizes a narrative approach by presenting a biography of Reggie Walker, the South African 1908 Olympic sprint champion to illustrate the interactions between nationalism and Empire during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods and to explore the ongoing tensions between amateurism and professionalism. At the start of the twentieth century, nationalism was often extended to include countries like South Africa, which consisted of four British colonies at the time of the 1908 London Games, despite recent wars (1880-81 and 1899-1902) between Britain and the two Boer republics. Walker’s colonial triumph appealed to the Britons present, especially since he defeated Britain’s main rivals, the North Americans, and he was subsequently celebrated in the British media as being from British native stock. Athletic distinction also became valued in the selection of troops in the Empire with those men from public schools, who were more likely to have taken up the British sports that became a feature of colonial life, being seen as promoting the power of British masculinity. Walker himself displayed specific forms of masculinity, both in his athletic and military career, and this was reflected in depictions of his muscular appearance. As an amateur and professional, Reggie was assisted by a number of individuals, some, like Sam Wisdom, professional advisors and others, like Herbert Keartland, Rufe Naylor and James Wallace, who came from different occupational backgrounds.

  • 268 One Hundred Years of Sport and Recreation In
    268 ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF SPORT AND RECREATION IN QUEENSLAND [By C G. AUSTIN.] (Read on June 25, 1959.) The task of compiling some observations on the sporting (i> history of this State has shown that whilst Queenslanders are, and have always been, very inter­ ested in sport, and associated recreational activities, their interest has been towards participation rather than as spectators. Fohowing this wide participation in sport it could be expected that our top athletes would predominate in the interstate and international field, but despite the many prominent performers that have been produced, this has been the exception rather than the rule. Also with wide participation and consequent lack of spectator interest, the potential champion is expected to prove his worth under the same conditions as apply to the average performer. These opening observations are made in a positive sense, for the wide participation in outdoor life, particularly in the pursuit of sport, has undoubtedly had a good effect on the physical well-being of Queenslanders. Some organised sports have been slow to spread to areas outside Brisbane, or large country towns, as the temperate climate and easy availability of creek, river or beach for bathing, surfing or fishing provides sufficient sporting recreation for many Queenslanders at the expense of organised games in a limited area. One exception is tennis for the many public and private courts bring this game within reach of almost everyone within the State. In the time available it is not possible to provide a list of statistical information, and this is not attempted. Names and performances are quoted to give colour to the narrative or to emphasise a phase rather than to attempt to assess the best performances.
