He was raised in Lincolnshire, England. Coming from a family of doctors it was expected of him to take up the same profession, but reports of Captain Cook’s discoveries and the reading of Daniel Defoe’s book “Robinson Crusoe”, moved him to go to sea. Matthew began his naval career in 1789 at the age of 15 when he joined the Royal Navy. Flinders served on three different ships before sailing with Captain Bligh on the Providence to Tahiti to hone his navigation skills. On this voyage he estab- lished himself as a first class navigator and an excellent cartographer. This was also Flinders first look at Australian waters landing at Adventure Bay, Tasmania in 1792 before returning to England. In 1795 he sailed aboard the HMS Reliance carrying newly appointed Governor of New South Wales, Captain John Hunter, to the convict settle- ment at Botany Bay. Onboard during the voyage Flinders befriended George Bass. With Bass, Flinders made a number of small boat journeys and refined the charts of the New South Wales coast. In 1798 Flinders and Bass set out in the Norfolk to explore the extent of the strait between the mainland and Tasmania. By doing this Flinders proved that it was a separate island. The passage was later named Bass Strait and the largest island, Flinders Island. In March 1800, Flinders set sail for England to put forward his proposal to explore the entire coast of Terra Australis to Sir Joseph Banks. In April 1801 while still in England, Flinders married Ann Chapelle. However, he had already been given command of the ship Investigator with orders from the British Government to make a thorough survey of the Australian Coastline, which was scheduled to take four years. In fact, it would be 9 years before Flinders would see his wife again. Investigator left England on the 18 July, 1801. 2 Sighting the Australian coast on 7 December 1801, Flinders charted the entire south coast from Cape Leeuwin (WA) around to Victoria. Matthew Flinders entered Port Phillip Bay on 27 April 1802. He chartered the entire bay, including the Geelong area. Landing at Limeburners Lagoon (near Geelong Grammar School in Corio), he scaled the tallest granite hill nearby to get a clear view of the surrounding landscape. He named it Station Peak. Later, the name of this 352m high hill was changed to Flinders Peak in his honour. Flinders Peak still stands out prominently for all travellers between Melbourne and Geelong as it is the highest peak in what is now known as the You Yangs today. Making a rush to reach Sydney before the winter set in he left Port Phillip Bay and arrived in Sydney on 9 May. After a 2 month layoff he left Sydney in July and charted the east and northern coastline of Australia, eventually returning to Sydney on 9 June, 1803, having circumnavigated the continent. In Sydney he learned of his Fathers death and his wife’s serious illness. After 2 months he finally set sail for England but was shipwrecked on the Great Barrier Reef. After rowing back to Sydney he once more sailed for England in October 1803. On being forced to stop in Mauritius for repairs Flinders was kept prisoner for 6 ½ years accused of being a British spy. After his release he ar- rived back in England in October 1810. In poor health Matthew started to write his narrative, “A Voyage to Terra Australis.” In April 1812 Matthew and Ann had a daughter, Anne. She would never remem- ber her father. Matthew died the day after the publication of his books and maps on July 19, 1814. He was buried at St James, Hampstead, Eng- land. 3 In 1912, electric trams began to take residents between the suburbs and city centre. Opening of the Geelong Tramway in 1912 The tramway system was established by the Melbourne Electric Supply Company, whose main interest was the supply of electricity to Geelong. The city’s electrical supply, along with it’s trams were even- tually taken over by the State Electricity Commission of Victoria (SEC). The tram network closed in March 25th 1956 as a result of cars becoming a more popular method of getting around. Now, with limited all-day parking around the city, wouldn’t it be nice to have our trams back? Between June 1942 and August 1946, the State Elec- tricity Commission of Victo- ria, operators of the tramway The large network included four main routes in Geelong, employed women for the first and only time as conductors. Their employment was brought about by the short- age of men away overseas serving in the military forces. Unusual for the times, these women were paid the same wage as men.

The prison was built in stages from 1849 to 1864. Its design is based on Pentonville Prison in England. The Goal was built by prisoners who slept on high security barges on Corio Bay during construction. The three-storey central block is laid out in a shape of a cross with east and west wings serving as cells and the north wing as an administration block. The southern wing housed a kitchen, hos pital and a tailoring workshop. The Australian Army used the prison as a detention barracks during, and for a few years after World War II. The government closed the jail in 1991 because the facilities are nothing short of appalling. The prisoners were moved to the newly built HM Prison Barwon in Lara. The goal remains mostly unchanged since then. Tour groups are now run by the Rotary Club of Geelong. The Goal is open to the public on Satur- days, Sundays and daily during public and school holidays from 1pm to 4pm. Souvenirs are also available. A gallows exhibit recreates the 1863 hanging of James Murphy, who battered Constable Daniel O’Boyle to death with a hammer at the Warrnambool court house.

  • Surfing, Gender and Politics: Identity and Society in the History of South African Surfing Culture in the Twentieth-Century
    Surfing, gender and politics: Identity and society in the history of South African surfing culture in the twentieth-century. by Glen Thompson Dissertation presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Albert M. Grundlingh Co-supervisor: Prof. Sandra S. Swart Marc 2015 0 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the author thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 8 October 2014 Copyright © 2015 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved 1 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract This study is a socio-cultural history of the sport of surfing from 1959 to the 2000s in South Africa. It critically engages with the “South African Surfing History Archive”, collected in the course of research, by focusing on two inter-related themes in contributing to a critical sports historiography in southern Africa. The first is how surfing in South Africa has come to be considered a white, male sport. The second is whether surfing is political. In addressing these topics the study considers the double whiteness of the Californian influences that shaped local surfing culture at “whites only” beaches during apartheid. The racialised nature of the sport can be found in the emergence of an amateur national surfing association in the mid-1960s and consolidated during the professionalisation of the sport in the mid-1970s.

  • World's Longest Running Surf Event Stays at Bells
    Wednesday, 1 April, 2015 WORLD’S LONGEST RUNNING SURF EVENT STAYS AT BELLS BEACH The Andrews Labor Government has renewed its support for the world’s longest running surfing event, the Rip Curl Pro, until 2017. The Bells Beach fixture, one of the flagship dates on Regional Victoria’s tourism calendar, is a globally recognised event on the World Surf League Championship Tour, and every year attracts the very best surfers. International stars Kelly Slater and Sunny Garcia are among the sport’s hottest identities who have made countless trips to the Surf Coast, while current joint World Number Two Steph Gilmore and reigning champion Mick Fanning headline the list of Australian favourites. The Rip Curl Pro is yet another opportunity for Victoria to show its strengths for holding world-renowned sporting events and the Championship Tour second leg is exactly that. More than 1.8 million people in 182 countries streamed last year’s event online, and it was beamed into 11.6 million households. The Easter event showcases one of Victoria’s top tourist hotspots to all corners of the state, the country and the world. The event doubles as a crucial driver of the burgeoning surf industry that is synonymous with Torquay and surrounds. Fanning and fellow reigning champion, Hawaiian Carissa Moore will be aiming to go back-to-back and ring the iconic bell once more as the event gets under way today. Quotes attributable to Minister for Sport, Tourism and Major Events, John Eren “There’s nothing better than a packed Bells Beach at Easter, watching the world’s best battle each other – and the forces of nature – in their quest to ring the famous bell.” “The Andrews Labor Government knows how important this time-honoured event is to tourism in Victoria, particularly here at one of Australia’s top holiday destinations.” “High profile sporting events play a major part in Victoria’s tourism strengths.

UH Manoa Chancellor Peter Englert did show up to receive the petition, leaving a meeting to do so. “Where’s Dobelle?” the group of about 20 gathered in Dobelle’s anteroom asked at one point. Officials shrugged their shoulders, and UH spokesman Jim Manke said, “I have no idea.” Englert said: “I can say that I have listened to you right now and that I have received your petition and your signatures, and I will take them forward to the university.” NION member Liz Reese asked Englert what he thought about the stu- dent tracking program SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System), to which Englert replied that he didn’t “know about it.” He later added he would look over papers in his office and follow up on the question. After numerous questions were asked of the administration about Dobelle’s absence and SEVIS, Manke said: “If you’re asking for a response, we will give you a response, but we cannot do that right now.” NION member Catherine Hatfield said that Dobelle was notified a few days before the presentation of the petition but did not respond.
