Grantley Cornish ran inside and told Mr Hayes that Brian Camac and Denzil Sandercock were swearing at each other using the word 'damn', and was promptly told not to
tell tales.


There was a problem for the parents of the children who were Baptist parishioners’ the man teaching their children was a Roman Catholic. Mr V.A. Lee, after discussions, gathered a group pf parents in a private house. The group decided Mr Hayes could not teach their children. Every family signed a petition to the Education Department, with the exception of Mrs A.J. 'Gertie' Laughton and Mrs Ralph 'Olive' Sandercock. The result was that the school was closed at the end of the second term in 1943. The children then went to the Gumeracha school, which unfortunately did not have enough desks and students had to sit three to a desk.

Transport was provided for the Kenton Valley children in the shape of a dark grey 1936 Chevrolet 'paddy wagon'. Its driver was Mrs A.J. 'Gertie' Laughton. There was room for two 'Juniors' on the front seat under the watchful eyes of the driver, and as many as could be packed in through a double door in the rear. The van had no side windows and the only ventilation for the rear compartment was through small vents in the front corners. The driver was able to quell any unruly behaviour merely by looking at her passengers through the small rear window above the front seat. The sisters Fae and June Boerth, Brian Camac, Grantley Cornish, Keith Plummer, Robert 'Bob' Laughton, Roger Lee, Fae Patullo, Denzil Sandercock, Peter Sandercock, Denis Seidel, and Ronda Wagenknecht travelled in the 'Black Maria' twice a day.

BAD TASTE BALL AT GUMERACHA. The "Bad Taste ball," held at Gumeracha recently, produced a big crowd and much "Bad Taste."
The couple chosen by the judges, Mr and Mrs Kingsmill, who appeared in the worst taste, were Mr Graeme Cornish and Miss Josephine Bleeze. Josephine wore a tennis frock with black stockings, odd shoes, and a fur stole. Graeme was attired in his best football guernsey and old working trousers, which combined well with his dinner jacket, vest, and top hat.
Outstanding costumes among the others were Mr Denzil Sandercock, who came in his pyjamas. Ken Cooper was amusing with his long underwear. Mrs Wally Giles-Clarke cut a manly dish in her combinations, whilst her husband shivered in his tennis shorts, etc. Mrs Brian Symonds was dressed casually in her slacks and sports shirt, whilst Mrs M.A. Guthrie in her bathing cap, size 10 shoes, etc was very humorous. Aside from these few there were many outstanding costumes.
Prizewinners during the night included Mrs Bowey, who won the electric frying pan, and Mr and Mrs Giles-Clarke, who won the lucky spot dance.
The ladies of the Bleeze for Mayor committee served a lovely supper in the new supper room. Proceeds of the night were in aid of the Institute. [6/5/1959 3a.]
