Pub Steps, Jill Warwick, Joyce Zerfas, Val Groves, Vic Smythe

 

This photograph, showing students smoking and drinking outside the pub at Largs Bay, was published in an Adelaide newspaper. At the time this was considered to be immoral behaviour. Note the man in the background with his fingers up in a derogatory manner.

The names of the three women who have been identified are from left to right: Joyce Evans (nee Zerfas) photographer, Jill Warwick, deceased, (producer of TV programme “It Could Be You”) Val Groves, psychologist. I have been unable to identify the men.

Playing cricket along the Sturt Hwy, near Euston, NSW

 

We waited on the Sturt Highway outside Euston, NSW for a lift to Melbourne. Parts of the highway were so isolated that we played cricket on the road and waited many hours for a lift.

Persons noted are Janet Buck (Hase), Joe and Dorothy Kiers, pharmacists.
