The material which forms the subject of the present communication was recently discovered at two different localities in New South Wales, and was received for investigation partly from Prof. Sir Edgeworth-David through Prof. A. C. Seward, F. R. S., partly from Mr. G. D. Osborne, Lecturer in Geology at the University of Sydney. The two localities are (1) near Mt. Tangorin, Hunter River District, (2) Lyndon, S. of Eccleston, Allyn River. The six specimens from the first locality were all found in situ by Mr. G. D. Osborne, in a fresh-water conglomerate belonging to the Kuttung Series of rocks, at an horizon at least 2,000 feet above the base of the series. The single specimen from the second locality was found as a loose pebble, but although the exact horizon is unknown the fossil probably also belongs to the Kuttung Series.

The subject course has as its central focus a design and build project that draws its context from addressing problems faced by a mythical Gondwannan population. Through it, students are exposed to an authentic design experience across a range of technical domains in an integrated semester long process. They grapple with user needs, requirements analysis, concept and detail design reviews and prototype demonstration. The course, as run at the University of New South Wales, Canberra, is described in the paper and the facilitation of the course academically and physically is discussed.

We are happy to return to the Britannia Theatre, Hoxton, the subject of pioneering studies by Clive Barker in the original Theatre Quarterly, where he used the ‘Brit’ as focus for an overview of the problems of researching nineteenth-century popular theatre in TQ4 (1971), proceeding to a detailed analysis of our knowledge of the nature and composition of the theatre's audiences in TQ34 (1979). Jim Davis now turns to the repertoire of the theatre, and, for one representative decade from 1863 to 1874, explores the sources of the melodramas presented there – a great many of them specially written or adapted by popular ‘house dramatists’. He also examines the values which may be discerned to underlie the most popular plays, and in the process, by going to manuscript sources rather than to the inevitably more ‘respectable’ plays that reached print, uncovers a more radical repertoire than previous authorities had assumed. Jim Davis, who currently teaches in the Theatre Department of the University of New South Wales, has published widely in the field of nineteenth-century theatre, including a survey of nautical melodrama in NTQ14 (1988) and a study of the ‘reform’ of the East End theatres in NTQ23 (1990).

Mr Robert Bellear, of Sydney, who is the subject of our cover picture, is the third Australian Aboriginal to become a fully qualified, university-educated barrister and, appropriately, was admitted to the New South Wales Bar on National Aborigines Day, July 13th, this year.Mr Bellear holds the degree of B. Juris. LLB. of the University of New South Wales, where he studied for five years. Earlier he had studied at Sydney Technical College to complete a matriculation certificate, qualifying him to undertake university studies.His wife, whom he married in 1966, is the former Miss Kay Williams, a Victorian. Mr and Mrs Bellear adopted three black children and fostered another three – two black teenagers and one white child – during his seven-year period of study.Mr Bellear was born at Murrumburrah, New South Wales, on June 27th, 1944, the second eldest in a family of nine children. When he was half-way through the fifth year of high school studies, he joined the Royal Australian Navy. During nine years of service in the Navy, he became a trade-fitter and turner, boiler-maker and deep-sea diver. He left the Navy in 1968, because of his attitude towards Australia’s involvement in the Vietnam War.Mr Bellear has been active in the Aboriginal movement for the past ten years and has held executive positions in organizations like the Aboriginal legal and medical services. He started a $3 million Aboriginal housing company in Redfern, an inner Sydney suburb with a large Aboriginal population, which now houses 60 Aboriginal families. He and his wife started the Aboriginal Children’s Service.

The Subject

In a former Paper on Thylacoleo was summed up what I then inferred from the fossil remains of the species “ carnifex ” which had reached me at that date, but acquiescence in those conclusions seemed, in the opinion of some contemporary Palæontologists, to require further evidence. I have, accordingly, omitted no opportunity of obtaining such, and the fossils so acquired form the subject of the present communication. The locality which promised success in this quest was the limestone district of Wellington Valley, New South Wales, from one of the caves of which the first evidence of Thylacoleo had been obtained.
