A letter reveals the author of certain front page verses in The Call is an acclaimed Sydney literary figure who wishes to stay anonymous. The piece discusses poetry's challenges from rhyme and rhythm to craft, recounting humorous anecdotes about failed lines and missteps in verse.
A long column of anecdotes covers a postman’s carnation pride in Hur stville, a Cronulla policeman’s garden, and a Sydney jeweller debate on gender equality. The piece also reports a Shire telegraph pole payment dispute, a Cork election anecdote, and the Sutherland Shire Association meeting with talks on Carlton Park visits, infant school plans, Berley’s Front Gate, and the club’s platform.
The body of Frederick Dawson, drowned Sunday in the Woronora River, was found Tuesday morning by Const Jackson and his team in a river pothole. The remains were taken to the Morgue. Jackson, a noted swimmer and St. George District Swimming Club member, led the search.
