PRESIDENT’S REPORT: Andrew Duchesne once again what a great job Lorraine has done producing our Newsletter with only returning from Holland on Friday. Andrew asked Russell Napper to provide an update of the recent support for the Bega Rally. Russell advised that if the Club is asked to clean up again, 2 people per road are required and it takes about 2 hours. Russell thanked Garry Twyford and Alan Smith for their assistance. Andrew reported that one of his Valliant’s has been overheating and he took it to the Exhaust and Radiator place in Eden (Plugger) who did a great job and for a very reasonable price. The midweek run last month saw 23 people and many cars at Tathra Hotel where a great time was had by one and all. Andrew asked Lorraine and Geoff Exell to speak of the recent travels to Holland. Lorraine said they had a great time and there are many good car museums to visit. Geoff mentioned he had the honour of driving a BMW i8 on the Goodwood Motor Circuit in the UK, reaching speeds of 220-230 kmph. Geoff went on to say, that if you were able to look at the speedo, you must be going too slow. Bryson Banfield then spoke of his recent travels to America and Alaska and what amazed him was the size of the caravans – 5 and 6 duel wheels! AND the 4WD were absolutely enormous. Bryson also said that every second car you see is a late model Mustang! GENERAL BUSINESS: Wayne Milford advised that John Ironfield is selling his 1967 MGB Mark II coupe for $14K which is in good condition and currently on full NSW Rego. For any further information John can be contacted on 02 6492 2177. [Ed: Sold] Bert Alker spoke of a Holden Enthusiast in New Zealand who was given by GMH a 2018 Commodore for his museum in New Plymouth. Bert also advised the owner of the museum had vehicles stored in unused Dairy Sheds which have gone missing. Bryson Banfield advised that he has sold his 911 Porsche and has now purchased a Cayman Porsche to fill the space in the garage. Rhonda Leggett spoke of her pride and joy, a 1942 Morris Series Y ute called Maybelline. Maybelline started her working life in Broken Hill NSW before ending up in Adelaide. After being beautifully restored and spending many years travelling around Adelaide, she has now found a new home in the Bega Valley.

    Register of Significant Twentieth Century Architecture RSTCA No: R103 Name of Place: House at 4 Cobby Street Campbell Address/Location: 4 Cobby Street, CAMPBELL ACT Block 5 Section 40 of Listing Status: Other Heritage Listings: Date of Listing: Level of Significance: Citation Revision No: Category: Citation Revision Date: Style: Date of Design: Designer: Construction Period: Client/Owner/Lessee: Date of Additions: Builder: Statement of Significance The residence at 4 Cobby Street, Campbell, is an example of significant architecture and an educational resource. The house is a good example of the Post-War International Style. The design incorporated some of the principal design features which are peculiar to the style including cubiform overall shape and large sheets of glass. The residence also displays elements of the Post-War Melbourne Regional Style including widely projecting eaves and long unbroken roof line. The architecture of this building may contribute to the education of designers in their understanding of post-war architectural styles. Sir Otto Frankel was recognised internationally as Australia's pre-eminent Geneticist and was a member of the executive of the CSIRO. A significant part of his work after his retirement, which was considered to be his most productive time, was undertaken in the residence. The design of this as his own residence highlights the significance of this house for its association with him. Description The three bedroom residence was designed by Roy Grounds, with Theo Bischoff as the project architect, in 1969-70 for Sir Otto and Lady Frankel and construction was completed in 1970-71 1. The building is a late example of a combination of two styles: the Post-War Melbourne Regional Style (1940-60) with its widely projecting eaves (at the rear only) and long, unbroken roof line and; the Post War International Style (1940-60) with its cubiform overall shape and large sheets of glass 2.

    4. Form Follows Formula: Grounds, Boyd and the Philip House Figure 4.1 Philip House, view from north-east Photograph: Ben Wrigley, 2011 John Philip was brought to Canberra as part of Frankel’s ambitious postwar recruitment program, and was appointed head of a new agricultural physics group at the CSIRO. Regarded as Australia’s leading environmental physicist, he was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 1967. His wife, Frances (‘Fay’), was an accomplished artist who was related to the Boyds via the Mills and à Becketts, and had attended the Murrumbeena State School in Victoria with Mary and Arthur Boyd. Many of Frances’s portraits of Australia’s leading scientists and academics—including Sir Mark Oliphant, Doug Waterhouse, John Jaeger, William Rogers, Patrick Moran and Manning Clark—are held in the collections of the Australian Academy of Science and The Australian National University. The Philip House, at 42 Vasey Crescent, Campbell, is one of three adjacent houses by Grounds, Romberg and Boyd that are known collectively as the Vasey Crescent Group. The other two houses in the group are the Blakers House and the Griffing House. Grounds and Boyd were both involved with these houses. All three were designed by Grounds, who arranged initial briefings, recorded 101 Experiments in Modern Living the clients’ requirements and prepared sketches from late 1959 through to early 1960. Boyd met with the clients in January 1960, and took control of the houses from May of that year as Grounds prepared for a three-month overseas trip.1 The Philip House is important for two reasons.

If Tasmanian architect Geoff Butterworth was awarded the St. Regis-A.C.I.-Scholarship for research into "Communications between Building Materials Suppliers and Architects". IF Melbourne's square, as everybody knows. Melbourne's square — as everybody knows — is caus- ing a lot of bellyaching and other birth-pangs among the locals. With at least one staunch ally on the City Council, the RAIA Vic. Chap. has mounted a model campaign to see that this opportunity for good Civic Planning is not allowed to lapse into the apathy of potted perennials. Hopes are high for an architectural competition: however, opinions vary about whether it should be international, Australia-wide, or restricted to Victoria. The problem is not so much how to design a square, as what to do with 11/2 acres of waste land between the side of a boom style town hall and the back of a gothic revival cathedral in the centre of a busy city. High on the list of idiot suggestions are 1) put a concrete replica of Batman's Boat (presumably in the middle of a sea of cement), and 2) an enormous floral clock (fitted with seats at a dollar a ride). C-S eagerly awaits the suggestion that it should be filled with buildings. We'll keep you posted.

    The Relation Between Cesarean Birth and Child Cognitive Development Received: 10 March 2017 Cain Polidano1, Anna Zhu1 & Joel C

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The relation between cesarean birth and child cognitive development Received: 10 March 2017 Cain Polidano1, Anna Zhu1 & Joel C. Bornstein 2 Accepted: 16 August 2017 This is the frst detailed study of the relation between cesarean birth and child cognitive development. Published: xx xx xxxx We measure diferences in child cognitive performance at 4 to 9 years of age between cesarean-born and vaginally-born children (n = 3,666) participating in the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (LSAC). LSAC is a nationally representative birth cohort surveyed biennially. Using multivariate regression, we control for a large range of confounders related to perinatal risk factors and the socio- economic advantage associated with cesarean-born children. Across several measures, we fnd that cesarean-born children perform signifcantly below vaginally-born children, by up to a tenth of a standard deviation in national numeracy test scores at age 8–9. Estimates from a low-risk sub-sample and lower-bound analysis suggest that the relation is not spuriously related to unobserved confounding. Lower rates of breastfeeding and adverse child and maternal health outcomes that are associated with cesarean birth are found to explain less than a third of the cognitive gap, which points to the importance of other mechanisms such as disturbed gut microbiota. The fndings underline the need for a precautionary approach in responding to requests for a planned cesarean when there are no apparent elevated risks from vaginal birth. Cesarean sections can save lives, but rates well above the World Health Organization’s recommended 15% ceiling in most developed countries suggest that many procedures are unnecessary1.

Later amid great 180 controversy Roy Grounds became the sole architect. His master plan placed the Gallery and two other smaller buildings at the southern end of the site, with the northern end reserved for the St Kilda Road future construction of a theatre and concert hall complex. The large palazzo-like gallery building is rectangular in form with Southbank three internal courtyards providing light and external views to surrounding galleries. The bluestone clad, reinforced concrete Victor 3006 building is relieved only by a large entrance archway and a bronze Victorian coat of arms by Norma Redpath on the front facade. The oriental influenced floating roof, with upturned eaves, is separated from the walls by a continuous band of high clerestorey windows, and a moat surrounds the entire building. The water theme is continued at the entry where a flow of water runs down a glass screen, now known as the water wall. The brief required the inclusion of a reception hall for State functions and this is four storeys in height and features an abstract ceiling of multi-coloured glass by the artist Leonard French. Two principal double height floors, at ground and second floor levels, contain the main gallery spaces, with intermediary floors containing many of the service RAIA Nº areas.

They are an excellent example of the Post-War Melbourne Regional style (1940-60) and are notable for displaying the design skill of the architect Sir Roy Grounds. The design incorporates many of the features that are specific to the style; widely projecting eaves, long unbroken roof line, narrow edge to roof and glass wall with regularly spaced timber mullions. The buildings also display elements of the Post-War International style, (1940-60), including cubiform overall shape and large sheets of glass The following design features are of additional significance; the steel roofing; overhang for shade; plain smooth wall surfaces; exposed rafters; the face concrete blockwork and courtyards; the double height living space overlooked from the gallery and open planning with the interiors opening out into the landscape; the limed ash joinery and paneling; the straw ceiling and exposed framing; the original detailing and type of finishes using natural materials. The townhouses were awarded the RAIA ACT Chapter Twenty Five Year Award in 1996. The complex is important for its strong association with the talented architect Sir Roy Grounds who is considered a key practitioner in the Post-War Melbourne Regional style in Australia.
