Readers of this oral history transcript should bear in mind that it is a record of the spoken word and reflects the informal, conversational style that is inherent in such historical sources. The State Library is not responsible for the factual accuracy of the interview, nor for the views expressed therein. As with any historical source, these are for the reader to judge. It is the Somerville Collection's policy to produce a transcript that is, so far as possible, a verbatim transcript that preserves the interviewee's manner of speaking and the conversational style of the interview. Certain conventions of transcription have been applied (ie. the omission of meaningless noises, false starts and a percentage of the interviewee's crutch words). Where the interviewee has had the opportunity to read the transcript, their suggested alterations have been incorporated in the text (see below).

  • Historic Earthquake Studies-Safinal
    Historical earthquakes in South Australia Kevin McCue CQU Rockhampton, Queensland Abstract Three earthquakes have etched themselves into the collective memories of South Australians, the damaging 1897 Kingston-Beachport, 1902 (so-called) Warooka and 1954 Adelaide earthquakes but thousands more earthquakes in SA have been recorded since 1954, or were reported before the first seismograph was installed in Adelaide on 26 June 1909. The 1902 and 1954 earthquakes damaged buildings in Adelaide as did an earthquake in 1840 just after the city was born. Chimneys in Burra were knocked down in an earthquake in 1896. On average, between one and two earthquakes per month are reported felt in South Australia today (Alison Wallace – pers. comm.), but only half of these would be reported by the media which is a useful yardstick for historical studies such as this report. Several hundred earthquakes felt in Australia have been documented in three volumes of the Isoseismal Atlas of Australia and by Malpas (1993) and others but sources have not yet been exhausted as is demonstrated with new information on 51 felt earthquakes, many of which have not had a magnitude and location tabulated before. An earthquake in 1911 previously assigned to the Eyre Peninsula has been relocated to Gulf St Vincent, an example of an interesting feature of SA seismicity; the occasional almost simultaneous occurrence of earthquakes in different parts of the state. The combined Modified Mercalli intensity dataset has been used to make an earthquake hazard assessment for Adelaide, the result is in the same ballpark as that of Christchurch New Zealand, of the order of a thousand years return period for a destructive earthquake.

  • The Meteorite Craters at Henbury, Central Australia. 1 Locality
    19 The meteorite craters at Henbury, Central Australia. 1 (With Plates II and III.) By ARTHUR RICHARD ALDERMAN, M.Sc., F.G.S. Lecturer in Geology and Mineralogy, University of Adelaide. [Communicated and read by Dr. L. J. Spencer, F.R.S., November 3, 1931.] N the early part of 1931 public interest in South Australia was I stimulated by the fall of the Karoonda meteorite 2 on November 25, 1930, and its subsequent discovery by an Adelaide University party led by Prof. Kerr Grant. In consequence of this Prof. Grant was informed separately by Mr. B. Bowman of Tempe Downs and Mr. J. M. Mitchell of Oodnadatta that fragments of meteoric iron were to be found surrounding several crater-like depressions near Henbury Cattle Station in Central Australia. The number of craters was variously described as three and five. Prof. Kerr Grant placed this information before the authorities of the South Australian Museum, and Prof. Sir Douglas Mawson, the Honorary Mineralogist to that institution, immediately suggested that the Museum should investigate the reports. The author con- sequently was commissioned by the Museum authorities to make a preliminary survey of the area. In this he was fortunate to be assisted by Mr. F. L. Winzor of the Chemistry Department, University of Adelaide. Locality. Henbury is situated on the dry water-course of the Finke River about 120 miles, by motor, from Rumbalara Railway Station. This distance is shortened by about ten miles if the journey is made by camel, the usual means of transport of the country. The meteorite locality (fig.

Transcript methodology Please note that the printed word can never fully convey all the meaning of speech, and may lead to misinterpretation. Readers concerned with the expressive elements of speech should refer to the audio record. It is strongly recommended that readers listen to the sound recording whilst reading the transcript, at least in part, or for critical sections. Readers of this transcript of interview should bear in mind that it is a verbatim transcript of the spoken word and reflects the informal conversational style that is inherent in oral records. Unless indicated, the names of places and people are as spoken, regardless of whether this is formally correct or not – e.g. ‘world war two’ (as spoken) would not be changed in transcription to ‘Second World War’ (the official conflict term). A few changes or additions may be made by the transcriber or proof-reader. Such changes are usually indicated by square brackets, thus: [ ] to clearly indicate a difference between the sound record and the transcript.

  • A Seismic Refraction Study of the Crust and Upper Mantle in the Vicinity of Bass Strait*
    A SEISMIC REFRACTION STUDY OF THE CRUST AND UPPER MANTLE IN THE VICINITY OF BASS STRAIT* By R. UNDERWOODt [ManWlcript received July 7, 1969] Summary A reconnaissance seismic refraction study of the crust and upper mantle of Bass Strait and adjacent land was undertaken in 1966 under the sponsorship of the Geophysics Group of the Australian Institute of Physics. The shot locations and times, the station locations, distances, and first arrival travel times are presented. Analysis of these data is described; they indicate a P n velocity below 8 km sec-I. Time terms are less than expected and do not agree with previous work. Crustal thicknesses cannot be computed until studies of upper crustal structure are made. These, and several mantle refraction studies, are suggested for future work. INTRODUCTION Although direct knowledge of the solid earth extends only a few kilometres below the surface, seismic and other geophysical methods lead us to suppose that the top 30 or 40 km of continents are approximately horizontally layered with P wave velocities up to 6·5 or 7 km sec-i. Below this is the Mohorovicic discontinuity (M) where the velocity jumps to about 8 km sec-i. Under oceans, M is only about 10 km below the sea bed. To investigate the crust and upper mantle in south-eastern Australia, a seismic refraction experiment, the Bass Strait Upper Mantle Project (BUMP), was sponsored by the Geophysics Group of the Australian Institute of Physics. In designing the experiment, we chose to cover a wide region rather than concentrate on a detailed study.

  • The Phoenix Magazine and Australian Modernism Cheryl Hoskin
    “A Genius About the Place”: The Phoenix Magazine and Australian modernism Cheryl Hoskin Originally presented as a History Festival exhibition, University of Adelaide Library, May 2013. If it is possible at this time still to feel the importance of poetry, Adelaide is now in an interesting condition. There are signs here that the imagination is stirring, and that if it has a chance it will give us something of our own. There is a genius about the place; and genius as a neighbour is exciting even at this dreadful moment. (C.R. Jury, Angry Penguins 1940) The literary, particularly poetic, upsurge wrought by the Angry Penguins journal began in 1935 with Phoenix, centred at the University of Adelaide. The decision of the editors to change the ‘jolly old school magazine’ format of the Adelaide University Magazine to a completely literary journal started a seminal period in Australia’s cultural history. Phoenix published works ranging from the nationalistic poetry of Rex Ingamells and the Jindyworobaks Club to the avant-garde modernist verse of Max Harris, D.B. Kerr and Paul Pfeiffer, with art by John Dowie and Dorrit Black, among others. During 1940, in reaction to withdrawal of funding for Phoenix, Harris, Kerr, Pfeiffer and Geoffrey Dutton founded the influential Angry Penguins magazine which sought to promote internationalism and ‘a noisy and aggressive revolutionary modernism’ to Australian culture. Why did the relatively conservative University of Adelaide become the ‘literary hotbed’ of Australian modernism? A faculty of some distinction, the creative support of Professors C.R. Jury and J.I.M. Stewart, a University Union which encouraged student participation and debate though the Arts Association and the student newspaper On Dit, the modern literature available through the newly built Barr Smith Library and Preece’s Bookshop, and the collegiality of St Mark’s College all played a role.
