The final Save Yallourn Committee was the President, Joe Dell, Treasury, Honor Crane, and Secretary, Ted Hopkins. The two boxes of the entire information of Save The Committee was provided to me. As such, the boxes were placed in a shed of Greville Street 48-54 accommodation and offset printing places. Of terrible problem the shed and boxes were fire burned (1979?). Just a selection of items were still available for the SLV and my 2 residence.

This very swing (LH side) was where Stuart Park used to rate all his girlfriends (1-10) haha

CORONATION BALL Tuesday 21st May 1935
Winning Queen JOYCE WITHERS (ARMY & NAVY)
Presumably the Army & Navy sponsored my mother and I would suggest it was taken in one of the halls.
My mother would have been 15 at the time. To her right and slightly above looks to be her sister VERNA WITHERS nee Puckeridge and immediately to her right is her youngest sister ENA WITHERS nee Butler. The man in uniform on the right was probably the local policeman.
