  • 12 Aug 1937: Deep pink roses, heath, and pale pink plum blossom, arranged In large bowls, decorated the reception-room and hall at 9 Darling street yesterday afternoon, when Mr. and Mrs. J. Mccallum Neil entertained many friends at a cocktail party given in honour of their son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Graham, who were married quietly last week. Golden Iceland popples introduced colour to the ballroom, which was decorated with masses of white almond blossom and tall green palms. Mrs. Neil fastened a spray of lily of the valley to the lapel of her black ensemble of satin-backed crepe.

  • 14 Jul 1948: No Teacher's Residence At Upper Beaconsfield. BERWICK A.P.P.U. CONCERNED. THE BERWICK Branch of the A.P.P.U. was greatly concerned to hear from Mr. Douglas Graham, that the headmaster of the Upper Beaconsfield State School is unable to obtain a decent house to live in. Mr. Graham told the meeting that Mr. Wood, who is a married man with four children, is living in a dilapidated old house only two rooms of which are habitable.
    The Education Department does not provide a house for the Upper Beaconsfield school teacher, who is responsible for finding a house for himself—a very difficult problem these days. Mr. Wood is held in the highest regard by both parents and pupils, and it is felt that the district is in grave danger of losing his services, as he cannot be expected to tolerate these conditions indefinitely. The meeting unanimously decided that the A.P.P.U. should give its whole hearted support to the residents of Upper Beaconsfield in an endeavor to get the Minister for Education to provide the necessary accommodation.
    The secretary was instructed to put the matter before the Minister with the request that he should take immediate action in order to retain the services of this highly respected teacher. Francis Philip Wood22,23

Hamilton, 2nd Mr. Douglas Graham, 3rd Mr. Kilvington; vice-presidents, Judge Bevan, Mr. Royle and Cr. John Richardson; Foreman, Mr. W. Lang; First-aid Officer, Mr. Reg. Barnes; President Ladies Auxiliary, Mrs. Richardson. All members of the committee were re-elected with the addition of Mr. G. Ayrey and Mr. Sutherland.

    season. Mr. Royle voiced the members’ appreciation to Cr. Richardson, the retiring president, for his splendid work for the brigade.

  • 13 Oct 1947: FINES FOR CAR DEAL
    If there were no intermediaries there would be no car black-market, said Mr. Pyvis, PM, at South Melbourne Court today.
    He fined John Francis McGrane, of Canterbury Road, Albert Park, £50 for having overcharged for a motor car and John Dewhurst, of Herbert Street, South Melbourne, £20 for having paid £123 above the fixed price.
    Mr. W. A. Fazio (prosecuting) said Dewhurst went to the Prices Branch and complained that early in June he lent McGrane £250 to buy a truck, that Henry George Collins, of Linden Park, Upper Beaconsfield, gave McGrane £50 and a 1934 Dodge sedan for the truck and that the Dodge was then given to Dewhurst in payment for the loan. The maximum fixed price for the sedan was £127.
    Mr. Fazio produced a receipt signed by Collins as having received £160 in payment for the car and £115 as payment for a spare tyre, tube and accessories. The spare tyre and accessories should not have been counted as extras, Mr. Fazio said. Dewhurst received the receipt for £275.
    Mr L. Revelman (for McGrane) and Mr J. G. Gorman (for Dewhurst) submitted that their clients had not committed any offence, and that there was no case to answer.
    A charge against Collins of a breach of the price regulations is proceeding.3
  • 23 Apr 1949: Berwick Council: H. G. COLLINS, “Linden Park,” Upper Beaconsfield, drew attention to the bad state of road leading to his property, and also the unstable culvert at the foot of the hill. Overhanging limbs, he said, also constituted a danger.—Referred to dayman.4
