EDITORIAL Life is a myriad of images all attempting to superimpose themselves on the conscionsness. A University attempts to bring some order to this chaos of thought, and a res足 idential college some understanding of social interaction. So it will be that each of us mounts the stairs of I.H. in a state of turmoil and in leaving there must be a sense of con足 tentment in the knowledge gained, the interests developed and the friendships made. The friendships will remain the most important and enduring aspect of our experience with community living. People who answer a variety of needs intellectual, emotion足 al, psychological and spiritual, providing the key to personal development. We live and learn through others, and in leaving I cannot help but reflect on the immense personal benefits I have gained during my time at college. I hope, also that in return I have contributed myshare to I.H. and the individuals who make it an entity. I hope that those who join me in the wider world leave here enriched but realistic about their place in the everbroadening scheme of International House. Those who remain have the future to anticipate, and create. I would ask you to remember us from time to time, with the warmth reserved for those who have shared and under足 stood your experiences. College is a grand experiment, not in abstract thought or scientific fact, but humanity. Cherish the fact that you were selected for this exciting experiment. RO SEM ARY BARKER

PRESIDENT SPEAKS... As I ponder over the events that have coursed the year, and put pen to paper, I find that there is more to be said than I can ever find time or space to say. I do not wish to dwell on our material achievements over 1981, for I believe they mean little on their own. Nor do I wish to comment on whether or not 1981 was a successful year for I do not believe this is for me to judge. The Inter national House Students’ Club does not consist of me alone; it consists of each and every one of us. If you feel that 1981 has been an enjoyable year at International House for you, then the Students’ Club has succeeded in its attempts. For years and years, there has been a continual uproar about the rift between the overseas and Australian students. Why were the two sitting at different tables during meals? Why were the overseas students seen to contribute less to college on the whole? Why were social functions and sport ing events filled with Australians with only a sprinkling of overseas students? As a result, the subject became a major issue . . . Was International House achieving the aims and ideals for which it was formulated? Great oraters began to preach over and over the ideal, “That brotherhood may prevail” . They turned a motto, an ideal once only spoken in reverence, into a phrase that bred nothing but contempt, for you simply cannot force brotherhood, friendship or college spirit down someone’s throat. Consquently, with the large turnover of college resi dents at the end of last year, I saw an opportunity to try an alternate approach. Rather than push our m otto from day 1, and run this place like a school of political indoctrin ation, I tried to relieve the tension the subject was creating by turning a blind eye to it. I felt that a more comfortable environment would slowly and subtly transform Inter national House into a large household — an International HOME. I hoped that the more comfortable atmosphere would lead to a feeling of belonging to this International Home and gradually feelings of brotherhood, friendship and college spirit would evolve. It was then my job to ensure that there was an increas ing probability for ‘social accidents’, and an increasing reason for people to want to feel a part of our International Home. This I attempted through social functions, sporting events and various college projects. The year started off on a great note with a fabulous Orientation Week. For this I extend my most sincere gratitude to Anna Fearnley, Valmae Rose, Wilfred Brimblecombe, Kanwal Josan and Gordon Stone. This was closely followed up by an Intra-college Faculty Evening, 'to acquaint new students with other students that shared their academic interests. The social committee, headed by Jim Henry then steered us into the most hectic, and I feel, well balanced social calender I have seen in college. I congratualte Jim and his committee on a superb job, that I feel few could have bettered.

Soiree, again, was an enormous success, the best I have seen in all my years at International House. For the first time I felt it was a year when even the participants were able to enjoy themselves and rather than create a rift be tween overseas students as it often has in the past, I believe it made many of us proud to be part of it, and more im portantly, part of International House. Much gratitude must go to Ron Chang and his hard-working committee for this great effort. It was with the same aim, to create a homely atmos phere and to facilitate interaction that projects such as the conversion of the College Library into a leisure room with the availability of table games, and the construction of benches for the Bar-B-Que and Volleyball court area were undertaken. They have already been seen to make their impact and I hope they remain to contribute to this pur pose in your remaining years at International House. Although on paper we did no better in sports than in previous years, I feel it was an enormous success, because spectator sport was at its greatest. For once, we had the numbers to outscream and outcheer other I.C.C. colleges. The fact that we lost every basketball game and yet had at least 40 spectators at each game speaks for itself. For this I must extend my gratitude to Peter Shoyer and Barbie Ainsworth for their great enthusiasm despite what seemed like impossible situations. I have never seen anyone with as much drive as Peter and I must add that he often served as inspiration to me. It would please me and probably please you to say that everything else went well. However, it would not be fair to give credit where it is not due. It therefore makes me very sorry to have to mention my disappoint ment with the members of my executive. I say this not to malign them, perhaps it was I who failed to inspire them. I mention it as my message to the members of the executive of 1982 and many years to come. You have been given the privelege of exercising a large voice in the running of this college. The toll for that priveledge is that you work not at the rate that pleases you, but that suits your president and the student body. Finally I would like to thank each and every member of the Students’ Club, for everything I attempted to accom plish was inspired by your enthusiasm, support and encour agement. For this both I and the college in general will be eternally grateful. It was consequently very sad that my enthusiasm was somewhat hindered by the lack of initi ative from the members of my executive, with whom I would have liked to have worked hand in hand. I thank you for giving me the priviledge of being your President. Despite the ups and downs, my memories of 1981 are very pleasant. I shall cherish them for many years to come. I wish you all luck in 1982. With the enthus iasm I know you hold, the future of International House looks nothing less than golden. God Bless You All.

ORIENTATION WEEK Orientation (0 ) Week is a waste of time. It is, however, a very necessary waste of time. My conception of the value of 0 Week (prior to my arrival at this institution) was that it might assist in soughting out the petty admin istrative necessities bureaucracies take pride in engineering. After witnessing one 0 Week my concpetion of its purpose has changed drastically. Those 7 days are like pre-school. If you like the school, the teacher and the other children —and they all like you — life looks pretty good. If the school looks too big, the teachers don’t seem to care and the other children aren’t interested in you: the temptation to “opt out” becomes an attractive alternative. Pre-school was (academically) a waste of time: nothing but drawing and singing. The attitudes, social skills and outlook formed then, however, were crucial to the child’s and school’s future. The same may be said of 0 Week. If the new-comer to college is made to feel as though he is an important part of a dynamic institution, where academic success and a fulfilling social life can successfully be balanced. Above all, if the first-year student feels the genuine attempts of people trying to help him in these aims O Week will have done all it can to ensure that every new student is encour aged to offer and develop his talents. 0 Week, 1981, went some way towards achieving these, unashamedly, optimistic ideals. Mounting the front steps of I.H. for the first time I nodded a nervous smile in the direction of Muhummad Ali (I have since learnt him to be Dickens Ralinga) and shook hands with a scraggy bearded chap in a turbon (Bhajan Singh). But the traumas were only beginning. . . The first meal, the first announcement, the first waterbomb (?!?) — now blurred into a maze of confused appre hension and excitment. Socially, one could not have asked for a better programme: barbeques, dancing, cabarets, parties and more parties, all served the social appetite more than adequately. Geographically, the foot rally served its purpose. Who else knows there are 375 windows in the J.D. Storey Building. In hindsight, a little professional advice from SPRA and the Union about their activities would not have gone astray, however, at the “end of the day” , 0 Week 1981 may be regarded as a success. My thanks, on behalf of all the recipients, go to the convenors: Kanwal Jossan, Valmae Rose, Wilfred Brimblecombe, Anna Fearnley, Gordon Stone.

A WORD FROM OUR MENTORS Before attempting to write something for this year’s Kanyana, I spent a little time glancing through past issues from the first in 1967 to last year’s. The two aspects of International House which I seem to have stressed in the past are the building programme and what is intended in this regard, and the reason for the establishment of International House, i.e. to afford the facilities for lasting friendships to be formed between people from different nations and with varied cultures and beliefs. Dealing with the first. It is well-known the residential side of the College was completed in 1969 and International House has been out of debt for some eighteen months, in addition to the House operating account showing a surplus. Our intention to complete the building programme by the addition of a new and larger dining room has been stated and the time of building was in the long vaction of 1981-82. In February, 1981 steps were taken to make this possible, but they depended on happenings completely out side our control. Unfortunately, we have now run out o f time and because these matters have not been resolved the building of the new dining room will have to be posponed until the long vacation of 1982-83. On the second point, the following Old Chinese Proverb which was published in the 1972 Kanyana seems appro priate: SSu hai chiao yu tu eh-eng lan, wei He who has friends in every place finds every place agreeable. M any comments have been made, such as ‘The overseas students are shy’, ‘The Australian students are indifferent’, ‘The idea is impossible to achieve’, ‘It will only partly work’. These are negative comments and I wonder if those who make them have themselves really tried to form friendships, or whether it’s a case of ‘everyone is out of step - except me’.

MR CRIBB SAYS . . . To understand the Australian concept of “mateship” one should view the modem Australian film “Gallipoli” which, in dramatic terms, spells out the basis of true “mateship” . Mateship goes much beyond the simple ideas of friends, companions, buddies and pals! Basic to the concept is the principle that, when confronted with un usual (and sometimes very unpleasant) circumstances, many different individuals will react separately to those circumstances in much the same way. This can be seen from the behaviour of convict days, through the ‘bushies’ nomadically seeking jobs, when men came to rely on each other in countless trials; the gold rushes, the great droughts, and the ghastly world wars. What remains of the ideals of earlier generations in the face of a highly competitive selfish and survivalist world is a matter of much concerned debate. Much will depend on whether selfishness, envy and greed can be overcome by more altruistic motives and whether a spirit of cooperation can ameliorate the pressures and conflicts pervading our society. From ‘mateship’ it is not too far to jump across to the principle that activates and guides all International Houses throughout the world. “TTiat Brotherhood May Prevail” is the motto of the first International House (New York, 1926) and has largely been adopted by later foundations. “Brotherhood” seems much more meaningful than its Latin counterpart — “fraternitas” and most International Houses are fairly pragmatic institutions. “Brotherhood” is more than just friendly acquaintance but it is not viewed with starry unthinking idealism and does recognise that no individual is infallible. It is based on a recognition of a common humanity and accepts that differences of creed

The fact is that the idea is working. Those Australian students or overseas students who have travelled to other countries and contacted ex-International House students will confirm this. The letters received from time to time also confirm this. I repeat a statement I have made on more than one occasion. You may think that when you graduate and leave this University and International House that your education is completed, but I have to tell you that it is just beginning; because you have to learn to get on with people — all of whom differ — and there is no better place to do that than now —at International House. There is no question that the vast majority of residents who have lived at International House have a great affect ion for the College and look back with pleasure and apprec iation for they stay. Finally, I would like to repeat an extract from a letter received from Joan Burgess, in the USA, a resident in 1971, aptly titled - “Brotherhood for many an Ideal” —for her a reality. “What did I say in may last letter about I.H.? Inter national House was a place where people were treated like they should be throughout the world — like people. They were respected for themselves, listened to for their point of view (much wisdom, tolerance and understanding evolved here), questioned about their way of fife and given patience when trying to speak or understand. For me, it was a morale booster as well as a mind broadener and a place to turn to when confused about Australia. My insight toward other countries, races and individuals and ideas increased tremendously, and though I received many appreciated heart-warming letters, I miss being there — at I.H. where there is a deep concern and love. As Emerson said “The only way to have a friend is to beone” . Bert Martin

and race exist, but believes that reasonably good manners, tolerance and daily association under the one roof will conquer tue ignorance, bigotry and prejudice so prevalent in the world at large. All Australian International Houses have a ratio of overseas to Australians of 50% each so unlike other trad itional colleges, overseas students are not in a minority. Particularly for them, International House is a “home” —a place to which they can invite their friends and return hospitality. A ll students, hopefully, view International House as their home whilst they are at the university. The university resembles a big city, many classes are large, students rush hither and fro, mostly clothed in faceless anonymity. It is only within a college that a student finds himself in a small closely knit community where he or she can come home. This makes college students very much a privileged class in comparison with the vast majority at a university. Accordingly, they should be worthy of that privilege. They should participate, give out, rather than take. The overseas students, having equal numbers, should use those numbers to influence and guide college policy. They do not have to be particularly athletic or drink like the camel, but they, and Australians alike, should act in a con cerned and positive way to improve the life o f their college and the university. Philosophers over the ages have stressed the importance and value of the social contract and this is what is expect ed of you when you are accepted into a college. I leave you with a thought from Omar Khayyain, the astronomer and poet of Persia (1100 AD). Ah, make the most o f what, we y e t may spend, Before we too into the Dust descent; Dust into Dust, and Under Dust to lie Sans Wine, sans Song, sans Singer, and Sans End! IVO R M.B. CRIBB Warden

Sunday Suppers: Culture is Edible This year we had six Sunday Suppers, three ini each semester. (1) Téte de la Chandeleur (Candle light festival) — FRANCE (2) Supper and Games (backgammon, cards etc night) (3) American Independence Day Celebration —USA (4) Indian Independence Day Celebration —INDIA (5) Moon Festival —CHINA (6) Australian Folklore Night —AUSTRALIA Sunday Suppers were free to all Students’ Club mem bers. This freed me from the worry of collecting entry fees and making special deals with people who would be late, who assured they wouldn’t eat anything etc.., and provided real value for your Student Club fees. Independ ent university tests have also shown that more people show up if it’s free. (I wonder why ???) Overall, attendence was excellent, with around 100 people coming to each Supper, with the food always in bountiful supply. Arun brought to my attention that film loans could be arranged through the Undergraduate Library, and full use was made of this priviledge in the last few suppers. „ My thanks to all those who exposed themselves; to a bit of culture, to Ron Chang (the college dishwashing machine pilot!), to the Kitchen Staff, and to the gioups o£ students who .cooked, sweated, diced and peeled over hot stoves and kitchen sinks to bring us those wonderful evenings. I would suggest a more generous budget for next year; we were forced to charge the first three suppers to the more than ample “0 ” Week budget. Laurent Riivory

1981 has been a tremendously successful year for the I.H. Wine Cellar Club. For the First time, the Club is enjoying the fruits of a very healthy bank account, which has allowed us greater freedom in selecting and buying stock, enabled us to pay off our outstanding debts and buy two new fridges. The success of the Cellar this year is, without a doubt, a reflection of the support, involvement and participation of our members, whose enthusiasm has been infectious (to say the least!). Certainly many members have already spent numerous days and nights unselfishly bending their elbows for the betterment of the Club. A number of well patronized brewery tours were held both first and second semester, but the highlight of our year was our International Beer Garden at Soiree. There we were pleased to take the public on a hearty, thirst quenching journey around the world and back again (well, for some at least!). Thanks must go to the Cellar Masters of Footy, Roscoe and David Grimes who were at the beck and call of con stantly thirsty customers; to their back-up men, Peter Holloway, Chooky, Shiny, Jim Henry and Kanwal, who were reliable stand-ins when the Masters could no longer stand. And many thanks to our loyal Club members, who were led admirably by Mark Godfrey, Chooky, and our retired Cellar King, Cooray, (who has taken up the posting of Castlemaine Ambassador to Sri Lanka). The Cellar has come a long way this year in promoting an appreciation of fine wine and beer and in providing a stimulus for social interaction within College. I can certainly say I have enjoyed my part in promoting this process. Cheers! Stewart Moore

This year has seen a general decline in the standard o f 1 sport for I.H.'s women. Our positions in the individuali sports are indicative of this general decline. However, this I has been amply compensated for by the enthusiasm o f the fresherettes, who have this year made up the m ajority of the numbers in each sport. There has been comparatively little effort on the part of the women's sports convenor to field teams in each of the sporting fixtures (except the [ tennis), and this has been due to the tremendous enthus足 iasm and spirit which the first years have, which hopefully | will continue next year. Once again this year the women's teams have lacked the I training that is so obviously needed. This can be blamed partly on the sport's convenor, however, I have found it very hard to organize training times because of the d iffe r足 ent lecture timetables, and when I have organised a time few people have chosen to turn up. It is something that can't be solved completely, but perhaps next year we will have a winning streak and this may provide the stim uli] fo r training, that is needed. I feel confident to say that the girls who have partic-1 ipated in this year's competition have enjoyed tnehnselves, achieving the main purpose of ICC sporting competition. I In addition, their enjoyment has been somewhat increased! by the tremendous support we have had from other colleael members. They have spurred us on, and made us feel that we are playing fo r I.H., that is, we have felt some team u n ity ,| and thus, some college unity. I would like to thank those girls, whether w illingly o ri unwillingly, who have given up their time which could have been used fo r more consumption of that wicked alcoholic beverage, fo r sleeping in, or for studying. And I would I like to thank again the overwhelming support we received! from members o f college who spectated at our sporting] fixutres.

5P0RT Here comes another momumental WINGE! In male I sport, apart from a 3rd in hockey, the best we finished was a sixth. The fact is we could have done better. Why I didn't we? Simply because we didn't want to as we had decided I at the start o f the season that we couldn't win. Well, I'm sick o f pessimists and defeatists. If we go out to play, we should go out to win. We did do this for a while but as soon as things started to go against us we caved in. We have to believe in ourselves before we w ill start to win. Some of you may say that it is more important that we should enjoy ourselves. I say the easiest way to enjoy yourself is to win. But in order to win you need the spirit to train and play hard. Reflecting on this year, we can talk about all the I fun we had and I hope that again next year we will enjoy ourselves, but let's also have the victories to remember.] Let's go out and win in 1982!

ROWING

A fte r being referred to as a "college o f boaties" by other colleges, I thought it appropriate that our men's rowing fraternity achieved some degree of success in the art of "b oa tin g" in 1981. U nfortunately, we could only work two crews due to a shortage o f boats, so no potential rowers could be introduced to the sport. We achieved little success in the leading regattas. The second crew, Ron Chang, Greg Seeley, Roscoe, andl Anthony Finch, were plagued with injuries and found it d iffic u lt to train. Our first crew did not fare much better w ith equipment failures and un favourable lanes preventing them from powering away. However, for ICC everything went our way: we drew a good lane, and BBC loamed us a great boat, (incident ally, named the "Moore;") and so with some brilliant "p o w e r" coxing, Stewey, Ralphy, Butch and Shiny stroked over the finish line in firs t place. Thus foiling the John's crews third attempt at ICC victory. I feel there is a moral to this story: too often o u r college falls back on the excuse "b u t we are only a small college!" to explain away our limited sporting success and yet it wasn’t through numbers that we won ICC Rowing, it was through a disciplined, guts effort over a whole season. A ll our sporting teams are capable of such efforts. So come on, I.H., have a go, we CAN do it! RALPH BLENKIN

\ 'is year the female rowing performance was more than creditable, with the first crew taking out the honours in the second division of the Kings Regatta. Thanks must go to our dynamic little cox — Justin Power, and the coaching of Cam Stephenson. Unfortunately our great performance in the Kings Regatta was not repeated in the ICC clash but nevertheless it was a good effort from a team besett by d if ficulties (e.g. a few missed practises, thanks to a sleepy co;x, the odd technical problem like boats falling apart and a little rust on the rowing hands!). The second crew took to the water w ith three novices and one old hand but their progress was hindered by an overwhelming amount of bad luck. In the Kings Regatta, fo r example, the rope got caught around the rudder — broke — and so made steering IMPOSSIBLE! Not to mention Naomi's slide and rigger breaking or the odd crab th a t Robyn managed to catch, then there is the story about Emmanuel crossing their path in the ICC Regatta and pre venting their racing pace from reaching its peak. All in all, things didn't go their way but then having 'Ralphy Babe' fo r a cox must have made up for it. The team consisted o f Naomi (nine pancakes and I'll be ready fo r breakfast) Beasley, Rosemary (super shorts) Barker, Joanne (Help!) Tamsell, Robyn (there's no crabs on me) D uffy, and Kris (stiraight oar) Wellings. The decision to obtain a "p u tt, p u tt" w ill surely improve ouir chances in next year's rowing events, that is if we can fin d a row boat that w on't fall apart!

CRICKET

B ILL IA R D S The cricket season saw' an influx of several reasonable batsmen but a continuation o f the dearth o f our bowling attack. Our bowlers and fieldsmen did fight valiantly but we did not have the edgie needed to capitalize on early breaks. Ian Davidson (123 at 20.5) and Darren Anderson (135 at 33.8) were our best bats. Greg Groves and Jim Henry shared bowling honours, each taking nine wickets. The highlights of the season were Darren's explosive 98 agaiinst Emmanuel and the scoring of Kanwal Josan's first 100 runs after tw o years o f trying. ___ P F T F R SHOYER

In 1981, as in previous years, the International House Sinooker/Billiard team set out to prove that with no prac tice and even less experience it was possible to emerge victorious from those nail-biting, nerve-rending battles over the green cloth. So it was that every Monday night, Simon Thatcher, Peter Reimers, Rodney Betts, Greg Seeley and Swee Toh fo r feited the pleasures of formal dinner to engage their oppon ents in games of cunning and careful tactics. Fortunately, the inability to play on home ground (perhaps they have seen our table?) was the least o f their worries. Clambering over the table at Union and bending forward before a crowd of curious Johnsmen, were a few o f the methods used to attempt to rob us of success. Needless to say, on most occasions, such disguisting tactics succeeded. On a serious note, we did beat Emmanuel 3-1, and drew w/ith Cromwell 2-2, to come sixth in the competition. Everyone enjoyed playing on the big tables and so one can only conclude that success is beyond our reach til we too, possess a full-size snooker table. RODNEY BETTS

BASKETBALL Under the capable guidance of "J o h n " (a Science student who volunteered to coach us after he vwatched our first excuse for a game and who happened to fall in love with Barbie's legs) the I.H. Women's Basketball tteam show ed an astounding improvement with each successive game; our overall placing being 6th. Jill Myers, our versatile Yankee Centre amd highest point scorer, inspired her adept ball handliing guards, Zena Wildsoet, Shirley Eisenberg and Barbie Ainsworth and the tall rebounding forwards — Losalinea Tulo and Naomi Beasley — onto bigger and better playing. Although we'll have to improve (or perhaps develop) ouir dribbling skills for next year, we already have the mosti important element of the ICC competition — team spirit — down pat! Thanks "John", the guy's basketball team, amd the other IHians who "went down” and R O O T E D for us ("Jill's lingo") in this, our season of gradual improvememt. NAOMI BEA SLEY

It was unanimously decided to present "the supporters" Award to none other than Henry Low for his continual presence at the basketball games. Henry was the lone spectator at the Cromwell game. Kanwal Josan, Jim Henry and Laurent Rivory are top contenders for "the quiet participator" Awards. Their keen participation in the 'throwing back' of abuse to the Kingsmen was due to just a little of the golden brew (or at least we think sol). STEPHEN G EE

TENNIS In a year of tennis upsets. Rod Frawley made the quarter finals of Wimbledon, John McEnroe was not in vited to join the Wimbledon Club and perhaps, the great est upset of them all, I.H. did not win the ICC tennis competition! Despite the efforts of the regulars, Adrian Ram and Cody Fitzgerald and the numerous others pressing for a place on the team; David Ribley, David Grimes, Jim Henry and John Towler victory eluded us. Albeit, closely against Cromwell and Emmanuel, and not so closely again st. John’s and Kings. Upon contemplation, one realizes our team is by far the youngest in the competition and so with this in mind the future of I.H. tennis looks bright. After all, even the greats must eventually take a fall . . . . right, Bjorn? M A R T IN FLYN N

And the big men fly, (or at least their hair does, Rodney).

The International House Basketball team o>f 1981 has had the usual season in I.C.C. sport. We playecd six games with the same results — second best. The firstt game was played against Kings and it resulted in our teaim coming a close second — the score being 53-15. Leo's was; the second game, with another stunning but goal-less gamie from the I.H. squad. The game (if it could be called that — more like murders) against John's was a close one witlti us taking second place on a 22 point different. Againslt Union we only lost by nine points — their players towering over even our tallest; Dickens, Gordon and Tim. We were un fortunately defeated by Cromwell and by thiose animal Emmanuelians also. Tim Trezise is the nominee for "the clean player" Award. In every game Tim got us less tham five fouls and N E V E R had one fight on the court - miaybe a few hassles, some swings and even the odd punchi, but never a fight. Tim also receives "the rising star" /Award, not knowing a thing about basketball before he sttarted he is now a professional (well.almostl).

Tennis was a disaster this year. From last year's fourth place we dropped to seventh place in 1981. When looking for girls to play I had a difficult chore. My thanks to those girls who volunteered cheerfully to drag themselves out of bed at seven thirty on Saturday mornings, in all states of euphoria. Included among them were girls who had perhaps played tennis no more th a ya couple of times in their lives, and it is to them I really must stress my gratitude. Thank you Karen Chapman, Jenny Paay, Zena Wildsoet, Jill Meyers, Valmae Rose and Jill Davidson for giving up your time. B A R B IE AINSW ORTH

Here i t is, the highest ranking male sport in I.H. — Hockey! By defeating Johns and Emmanuel, and drawing with Kings and Union, we finished equal third with Cromwell, which is quite a pleasing result. We tried hard, and although hampered by injuries, apathy and at times, even incompetence, we had a good time. David's down-to-earth approach to the game drew the crowds, but severely diminished the earthworm pop ulation on Oval Two. Spike's very consistent performance earned him a place on the I.C.C. team, and Foggy would have been similarly honoured if a troublesome foot had not the edge o ff his performance. Overall, I think the lesson learnt was that strong team rit and mateship can make up for a general lack of fitness and skills. Three cheers fo r the team, and one more for "pissedagain" who (accidentally?) scored a goal for us.

HOCKEY

The I.H. Women combined this year into a hockey tream of great strength and expertise, dazzling the oppos ition with their new found stick and ball skills, to finish a creditable second in the ICC competition. The season saw I.H. notch up impressive wins one after the other as we defeated Duschene 3-0, Emmanuel 4-0, Cromwell 5-1 and Grace 2-1. However, the most contentious game of the season against Women College saw the I.H. women go down 1-2 in the dying minutes o f the game, to suffer our only defeat. Thanks must go to all our spectators and supporters, our referee Bhajan and last but not least, the women that made up the most 'medelia' hockey team seen at I.H. for some years. Kato (yes hockey really is played with a hockey stick) was always fearless and upstanding (sometimes that is . . .) in goal. Wijnberg — forever bleary eyed but nevertheless strong in defence — combined w ith that bulky blonde bombshell Naomi, to produce an almost imprenetrable back line. Robyn — the wanderer — Duffy teamed up w ith Wink, somewhere in the centre and quiet but forceful Kathy Moore, in order that a most uncon ventional yet effective half line could emerge. Our forward line also surged forward with Jenny Paay leading the attack from the right with many a dashing tro t down the side line, then across to our light-footed centre Zena, forever waiting to connect stick with ball. Between these tw o came Simone, who had us all wondering if she really did 'live' in college. Forever emerging from the left screaming mess of sticks, legs and balls was Barbie, support ed by the versatile and dynamic Lusa. Though many doubted our ability this fine line up of women combined into a team of courage, determination and even some skill. Congratuations must go to the three women who succeeded in raising I.H.'s status even further by being selected in the I.C.C. Team. Congratulations Kathy Moore, Liisa Lsokaugas and Karen Winkworth. Finallv, I personally would like to thank all the girls fo r making the season so worthwhile and so enjoyable. Good luck next year — I hope you can again pool all your enthusiasn into a team that has as much fun and success as we did this year.

ORTH

¡HOP'S OPEN The title of this report is quite possibly the second loudest retort that ever thunders through the towers of these hallowed halls. Indeed complaints have been re ceived from the procencientious factions that this audatious advertising is just too much. By the same token, complaints have also been received about the shop’s four and six legged boarders, the occas ionally irregular trading hours, our sometimes losing price war with certain multinational conglomerates and the unforgiveable undersupply of blue-“suimins” (the am brosia of I.H.). My suggestion to next year’s honorary (i.e. unpaid) proprietors would be to bear the above points in mind. Don’t concern yourselves overly with the multipeds, they don’t eat much, it’s the two legged patrons that bite the most. To run out of cigarettes, large twisties, bullets or those God-damned salmonellated blue-“suimins” is a crime beyond reason. One learns many things in a term as shopkeeper. Primarily the eating habits of one’s fellows. The most interesting observation is that we supposedly educated folk spend great deals o f money on disguistingly stupid food! With the possible exception of pre-rodent mars bars, nothing in the shop has more nututional value than an empty cornflak packet, and yet we managed to snatch some six thousand dollars from your sweaty palms. The Board of Directors o f I.H.S. ine. have decided that the profits from this venture be spent sponsoring the I.H.S.C. sporting teams, rather than allowing it to fall into the bottomless project fund pit. The monies have been allocated to buying same new sports uniforms, so that in 1982 our members may take to the field in proud black and gold rather than as the multihued mess of past years. Any remaining monies will be left in limbo so that next year’s Board may purchase the much talked about refrigeration unit, if they feel they are hot enough to warrant it. As the financial year draws to a close I must pay tribute to “the Y” , the efforts of this little bruised beast of burden were not in vain. Thank yous must go to all you spenders out there in consumer land, how we love to hear those pennys dropping. Very sincere thanks must go to my long suffering under paid comrades in commerce, without their super-willing and consistant help the complaints would have been more, and my G i\A . would have been less! Anyway, I’m off to ringbark a Jacaranda, so get some twisties up ya! DAVID GRIMEg

Soriee has always been a major event in the Students’ Club activities as it is a time when students at International House show to the people of Brisbane their colourful and varied cultures. It is a time when the students forget their differences, set down and work towards one common goal. Soiree 1981 reverted back to the format of previous years. The International Fair with the food stalls, cultural displays and open air concert was kept very much the same as previous years. In the evening, a dinner was held on the grounds of International House. It was planned as a cele bration dinner and only those outside college who were involved in the preparation of Soiree were invited to attend. A number of other ideas were tried out. Tickets were sold to the public for the purchase of food and drinks dur ing the day. This greatly assisted the people minding the food stalls as they then did not have to worry about change. A soft drink stall was added, which proved to be very pop ular. An Australian display depicting the culture was set up and attracted great interest. A Souvenir Magazine was published in conjunction with Soiree. The aim of the magazine was to raise money to help finance the dinner in the evening. The magazine was available free to all visitors at Soiree. It contained recipes for a variety of national foods sold during the day. Advertisements were collected and a net profit of $500.00 was made. This, together with a generous donation from the Bowen Fund assisted the running of Soiree. Soiree this year made a rather unexpected profit of $600, which was donated to the International House Building Fund, to assist with the construction of the proposed extensions. Finally, I would like to thank a great number of people who helped in so many ways to make Soiree 1981 a success. Firstly, I must thank my committee: Patricia Tan and Tanya Edwards for organising the food stalls; Anna Fearnley and Geoff Forday for taking charge of the cultural displays; Peter Holloway for managing the open-air concert; Wilfred Brimblecombe for the publicity; Wayne Forday and Greg Seeley in collecting the advertisements for the magazine and generally helping out where necessary. To all the national organisers, ethnic groups, their friends and all others who helped, I thank you. RON WAH CHANG Soiree Convenor

From Asia to the U.S., we had a taste (quite literally) of many different countries (and a sip, too).

Bright smiles, bright .costumes and bright sunshine helped make Soiree 198$ an outstanding event.

“rshid

— this calm, quiet warmhearted gentle man wno nas been w ith us since 1978, comes from Bangla desh. Alan is completing a Ph.D in Electrical Engiineering and will hopefully go home to lecture at a U niversity there. He will be remembered as the perfect gentleman and as a successful ambassador fo r his country. IHiis only fault seems to be a liking fo r pretty girls.

Tanya Edwards — Soiree's Singaporian lady will be returning t o Melbourne to work as a speech therapist, and with her go those revolutionary mini skirts and hair designs from the tre n d y Melbourne scene. Her kindness is not only magentic to people but also college cat:s ¡in the family way as only Tanya would know.

Winthrop Harewood — hails from that tin y , unknown oil producing r o c k in the Caribbean called Trinidad. Home o f the calypso steelband and carnival which 'W in' is more than happy to p articipate in after a few rum punches. He left home in '77 in pursuit o f a vet science degree and somehow landed in Brisbane. He has managed to live through 5 years a t college and still remain relatively sane perhaps its the influence o f all those horses, pigs, dogs and cats. Win w ill be remembered for his exotic hairstyles, his steel drums and his love for the flattery of I.H. women!

Lee Ho — first came to college in 1979. Since then he has been carrying on a single-handed war against noise pollution in college. If there are any noisy parties in college, rest assured Lee Ho will be there — not to contribute but to m onitor the noise level. Lee Ho has an amazing a ffin ity fo r sevens — that is what he seems to get only all throughout his academic career. We congratulate Lee Ho on finishing his medical studies and wish him all the best when he sets up his practice in that nice town of Ipoh, Malaysia.

Jenny Schafer — commonly known as I.H.'s resident Mum. Jenny has spent 4 years at college, during which time her normally cool & calm exterior has only been ruffled by the odd parapet party or blaring stereo, eh Kate! But Jenny does have a heart o f gold and we will all miss her when she leaves.

Swee Tow — came to Brisbane in 1973 from the small own o f Tanjong Rambutan in Malaysia. He is presently sompleting an MBA and w ill be remembered at I.H. for tis surefire tips for the Saturday races, his fortune-telling ¡tail at Soiree and his ability to match his vocal chords with the loudest ocker. But those who know him well say that his willingness to help a friend in need is their overwhelming memory o f him.

Leanne Evans — College's own jetsetting international athlete. Our long-legged senior resident whose favourite occupation seems to have been chasing red headed surfies. Leanne has left her mark at University and College — with a variety of sporting awards. We wish her luck with her running career.

Francis Harlim — although graduating this year with an honours degree in Chemical Engineering, is rumoured to be taking up the position of Pierre Cardin's Asian Market ing Rep. This quiet character has a businessman's mind and most things he says have a double meaning to them. He is a computer wizard and a space invaders fanatic and it is believed that he has his own machine, installed at his bedside for the ultimate in relaxation.

Sam — a quiet student from Singapore, has studied in I.H. for two years. He is a hard working student though he works part-time as a waiter in a Chinese restruant probably because the only western food he likes is cheese cake. Sam intends to further his studies in Australia after finishing his engineering course.

Ian Davidson — (known as Davo) hails from Hope Island. He is completing a Bachelor of Commerce and is already working in the accounting field. In his four years at college his interest in sport has become well-known particularly athletic sprints!

NETBALL

Playing to the insistent cries of "S h o w us your badge", from the somewhat mute IH spectators every Sunday even ing, spurred the netball team on to 5th position in the ICC competition. Our versatility in the centre was provided by Jenny Paay' and Karen Chapman, who showed that every inch of the court was within her reach. In attack, Robyn Duffy and Barbie Ainsworth proved their worth while Losa kept our goal shooting at a consistent level. The defense line up included Naomi, Joanne Heaton and Liisa "3-feet" Isokangas who tried valiantly to prevent the opposition from scoring. * We all enjoyed our netball games, and sing the praises of our energetic supporters (especially the consistent Sim on Thatcher) and Laurent Rivory for saving Sunday Supper tidbits for us, on occasions.)

SOCCER The soccer season ended on a bright note for I.H. with a resounding 4-0 victory over John's. Hopefully we can start the season off that way next year. Although again in last position, we scored more goals than either Cromwell or John's, half being due to the talents of Dickens Kalinga; the team being continually inspired by the amazing defens ive play of Neale 'Spike' Mulligan! Other highlights of the season included: David Grimes' "g o a l"!? Justin Power's call to action the morning after the formal — "get some bacon up ya"; Peter Callaghan's spectacular last minute diving save — when he wasn't goal keeper, and the subsequent yellow card; Laurent scoring at both ends; and of course {sung to either 'Amazing Grace' or 'Auld Lang Syne') "F o u r nil, four nil, four nil four n il!" P ETER C A L L A G H A N

The golf course proved a devastating maze of gaping caverns and steaming jungles for some of us (me in par ticular) on the day of the ICC Golf Competition. I re turned 104 and was closely matched by Greg Seeley with 109; two people and a house to his credit. John Towler had an excellent round of 89 but the star of the day was the young fresher, Ivor Cribb. His consistency belied his youth by scoring a steady 93. David Grimes sealed our 6th position with his figure of 98. While most people en joyed the day, this victim of course ravages intends to hang up his clubs until next year. PETER SH O Y E R

Once again to the delightful, entnüsiãsm õ^jü^reshers we were able to field a team. This year we defeated Crom well, Emmanuel and Milton House (on a forfeit), and were placed in the competition. The skillful talents of Losalina T u lo saved many a point, while her incredible serve won us many points that would not have otherwise been possible.' Th e combined talents o f' Naomi Beasley, Chris Rogers, Liisa Isokangas, Zena Wildsoet, Jill Davidson, Jenny Paay and Barbie Ainsworth helped to establish a creditable team. With the initiation of men's vollyball into ICC, and the fact that their matches were scheduled for the same night as the women's competition, we always had numberous supporters. One in particular who goes by the name of Peter Shoyer, unleashed a rather small, but powerful, vocabulary at our games that unfortunately must go un printed. Anyw ay thanks for all your support, and perhaps next year we will go on to win a few more games.

.RUGBY LEAGUE

Nice legs, shame

about the ........

Unfortunately, we didn't have the best football season this year with only one victory, being the Cromwellcliffhanger and an 11-10 result. From the start of the season the overwhelming size and physical fitness of the other colleges took its toll on us. Although attendance at training sessions was often non-existent one thing we didn't lack was "guts", despite the prevalence of injury. Our coach, Ian Douth, tried to drum us into fighting form and we want to thank him for his efforts. We would all like to extend our congratulations, I'm sure, to Ross Hetherington and Stewart Moore for making the I.C.C. side and if that isn't enough our man Roscoe is captain! A thought for next year's footballers: Remember if it doesn't hurt its not doing you any good. PETER R E IM E R S

Thanks to a great effort by Leanne Evans, who won the 100, 200 & 400 metres, and in the process broke her own records, we came second in the women's athletics, exclud ing the cross-country. But one cannot forget the skills of the other members o f the team — Naomi who brough in a 2nd in the discus, and a 3rd in the high jump, Cathy Wijnberg's 3rd in the hurdles, while Liisa, Kate, Zena and Jill all managed to push our point score along. Our e ffo rt in the cross-country is to be lauded with our four competitors coming in the first twenty five. Naomi took sixth place, Kate — fifteenth, Karen Chapman — ninetheenth & Liisa — twenty-first. Unfortunately, Crom well and Duschene managed to do a little better than us so putting us back to 4th place in the Athletics, overall. It is disappointing to see only eight females represent our college in this sport, so why not 'give it a go' and air your hidden athletic talents, next year.

ZENA WILDSEOT

The combined effect of football, dirty weekends, barb-ques and football almost saw the disappearance of our athletics team in October. However, we did manage to to come up with some excellent replacements. In the 100m David "The Streak" Grimes recorded 11.4 to come third while in the 400m Neale Mulligan recorded the same result. Greg "The Streaker" Groves came 4th in both the hurdles and shot p utt with Peter Reimers unlucky to be placed only 4th in a count back in the men's high jump. It was good to see that everyone who competed in these athletics had great spirit and enjoyed themselves. Stewart Moore was our only competitor to come in the top th irty in the Cross Country but we still scraped a sixth just ahead o f Cromwell.

PETER SHOYER

The best thing about athletics day was the supporters.

Valiant efforts all round showed the invincible I.H. spirit.

SWIMMING Another top effort by the I.H. male swimmers! We not only didn't win but we didn't lose either, coming second last to Cromwell. Help from the likes of Steve McKinstry, who swam in one quarter of the events, and John Samisoni who swam in one fifth of them, prevented us from being put to shame. I have to congratulate Francis Halim for his mamoth endurance efforts in the 200 medley and the 50m butterfly. Steve Bailey, Matt Ferguson and good ol' Spike (N. Mulligan) also represented us well. Let us not forget the fresher relay which we won with the help of Greg Groves, Steve McKinstry, John Samisoni, Neale Mulligan and a team member from another college who swam the last 10 metres in our lane so winning the race for us. As usual the carnival was well supported with spirits running high in all colleges. Well done team — I hope to see as good an effort if not better next year. A N T H O N Y FINCH

Swimming is not I.H.'s forte, and in 1981 this was proved again. However, the influx of a number of enthus iastic freshers, and their participation was reward enough. Last year we sported a team of three but this year I was able to rope in Liisa Isokangas. Jill Meyers, Teresa Walker, Zena Wildsoet, and Cathy Wijnberg. Although the results were not fantastic (we came seventh), the spirit of our numberous supporters, and the courage of our swimmers made it a thoroughly enjoyable night. In addition, the yobbos and the animals of the various colleges managed to control their loathsome selves, and refrained from repeating last year's disguisting behaviour. A good night was con sequently had by all.

SQUASH

Squash this year held only two mottos: always go for the nick, and only play with black balls. The team was (1) John (just wait till next year) Towler; (2) Ray (I'll get that ball yet) Whitehead; (3) Rodney (banger) Betts; (4) Jim (Fred Astaire) Henry and (5) Conrad (hopalong) Stacey. By the end of the season we had improved greatly, but alas, too late. Shiny could now hit the ball 3 times out of 4, if you threw it to him, (some of them did) and Banger, at the last game actually held the racquet at the correct end, first go!! Conrad finally managed to play a full game without breaking anything; the first time it was his racquet, the second time it was his leg, (hence the nickname). John lived, breathed and ate squash, in fact he W A S squash. Once he even played it. And who could forget our illustrious Social Convenor, who danced about the court so majestically that once he almost got to the ball. (Many times it got him). All in all we were very unlucky to come fifth, beating only Kings and Leo's. However we did get an ICC represent ation and we did have a lot of fun. I thank all thè above who played, and those wonderful few who came to support. JOHN TO W LER Despite the fact that we dropped from fourth position last year to fifth position this year, it in no way reflects our determined efforts or our enthusiasm for the compet ition. The competition was a hard one, and with the loss of two good players from last year's team, Cathy Wijnberg, Karen Winkworth, Zena Wildsoet and Barbie Ainsworth did their best to match the standard. Zena Wildsoet; as the number three player managed through sheer determin ation, to win all her matches bar one. Thanks to the ded icated attendance of Bhajan Singh and John Towler as supporters who also gave advice when needed.
