  • The Principal Time Balls of New Zealand
    Journal of Astronomical History and Heritage, 20(1), 69±94 (2017). THE PRINCIPAL TIME BALLS OF NEW ZEALAND Roger Kinns School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of New South Wales, Sydney, NSW 2052, Australia. Email: [email protected] Abstract: Accurate time signals in New Zealand were important for navigation in the Pacific. Time balls at Wellington and Lyttelton were noted in the 1880 Admiralty list of time signals, with later addition of Otago. The time ball service at Wellington started in March 1864 using the first official observatory in New Zealand, but there was no Wellington time ball service during a long period of waterfront redevelopment during the 1880s. The time ball service restarted in November 1888 at a different harbour location. The original mechanical apparatus was used with a new ball, but the system was destroyed by fire in March 1909 and was never replaced. Instead, a time light service was inaugurated in 1912. The service at Lyttelton, near Christchurch, began in December 1876 after construction of the signal station there. It used telegraph signals from Wellington to regulate the time ball. By the end of 1909, it was the only official time ball in New Zealand, providing a service that lasted until 1934. The Lyttelton time ball tower was an iconic landmark in New Zealand that had been carefully restored. Tragically, the tower collapsed in the 2011 earthquakes and aftershocks that devastated Christchurch. An Otago daily time ball service at Port Chalmers, near Dunedin, started in June 1867, initially using local observatory facilities. The service appears to have been discontinued in October 1877, but was re-established in April 1882 as a weekly service, with control by telegraph from Wellington.

  • 12. New Zealand War Correspondence Before 1915
    12. New Zealand war correspondence before 1915 ABSTRACT Little research has been published on New Zealand war correspondence but an assertion has been made in a reputable military book that the country has not established a strong tradition in this genre. To test this claim, the author has made a preliminary examination of war correspondence prior to 1915 (when New Zealand's first official war correspondent was appointed) to throw some light on its early development. Because there is little existing research in this area much of the information for this study comes from contemporary newspaper reports. In the years before the appointment of Malcolm Ross as the nation's official war correspondent. New Zealand newspapers clearly saw the importance of reporting on war, whether within the country or abroad and not always when it involved New Zealand troops. Despite the heavy cost to newspapers, joumalists were sent around the country and overseas to cover confiiets. Two types of war correspondent are observable in those early years—the soldier joumalist and the ordinary joumalist plucked from his newsroom or from his freelance work. In both cases one could call them amateur war correspondents. Keywords: conflict reporting, freelance joumaiism, war correspondents, war reporting ALLISON OOSTERMAN AUT University, Auckland HIS ARTICLE is a brief introduction to New Zealand war correspondence prior to 1915 when the first official war correspon- Tdent was appointed by the govemment. The aim was to conduct a preliminary exploration ofthe suggestion, made in The Oxford Companion to New Zealand military history (hereafter The Oxford Companion), that New Zealand has not established a strong tradition of war correspondence (McGibbon, 2000, p.

  • 3. the Pervasive Power of Man-Made News
    CONTEMPORARY GENDER ISSUES 3. The pervasive power of man-made news ABSTRACT Since the first woman was appointed as editor of a major newspaper in New Zealand in the mid 1980s, what has been the progress of women to top editorships? And what is the status of women at governance, manage- ment and staff journalist levels? These questions examine gender equality issues and are important given the power and ubiquity of the news media in modern society. The article analyses participation of women in the news media against the so-called ‘feminisation’ of pre-entry journalism train- ing. The findings show that little progress has been made at editorship level, while there is more progress for senior women just below editorship level. Further, there is a difference in the status of women in governance of public service versus privately-owned broadcasting. The article is criti- cal of the data available to monitor participation by gender and ethnicity in New Zealand journalism over time. Strategies to help break down the pervasive power of ‘man-made news’ are proposed. These include female shareholder activism at the governance level of media companies, and a greater commitment by the New Zealand Journalism Training Organisa- tion to regular monitoring of women’s newsroom participation. Without it the status of women in New Zealand journalism remains invisible. JUDY McGREGOR Equal Employment Opportunities Commissioner, NZ Introduction N THE mid 1980s I became the first female to edit a major newspaper in Australasia, the big-selling tabloid Sunday News in New Zealand. The Inewspaper was then owned by Independent Newspapers Ltd, a company with a sizeable News Ltd shareholding.

    Nineteenth Century New Zealand Novels and Novellas Published as Serials in New Zealand, Australian and British Newspapers and Periodicals and Never Published as Monographs: A Checklist J.E. TRAUE Additions, corrections and comments are invited. Please send details to [email protected] “It is to the old newspapers that we must go if we want to see the beginning of colonial fiction … there are in the dusty files of these and other journals many stories of colonial life which have never struggled out of the papers into book form.” Clara Eyre Cheeseman, “Colonials in Fiction,” NZ Illustrated Magazine 7 no. 4 (1 January 1903): 274. A New Zealand novel is defined as one first published in New Zealand, or with a significant reference to New Zealand or written by an author resident in New Zealand. Where a serial carries the byline “Written specially for,” “Specially written for” or “Written expressly for” it is assumed that the author is resident locally within New Zealand unless there is evidence to the contrary. In general, fictional works appearing in three or fewer episodes are excluded. Fiction written for children is not included. Airlie, pseud.
