WOLLONGONG DISTRICT CAMERA CLUB
At its first meeting the Club had nineteen foundation members. Its policy is to encourage the average “snapshotter” along that picture-making road that will finally lead him to the proud occupation of a full-page of the A.P.-R. The Club intends struggling hard to attain its own dark-room and fittings. Two fine cups have been donated for a point score competition.
Messrs. T. Johnson-Lord, President (Port Kembla 193), or A. Chambers (Port Kembla 260) will be pleased to give further particulars.

Returning to print after the Xmas season, the Wollongong District Camera Club thanks its friends and well wishers for their greetings and wishes them in turn a New Year full of good subjects and peace in which to photograph them.
It is hoped that the next announcement will specify the time and place for our second field day and also further details re the current monthly competition.

Further doings of the Wollongong District Camera Club.
Members might please note that the next meeting is dated the 22nd January, and that the next subject scheduled for the monthly competition series is 'Men at Work', for which there will be no excuse for a plurality of entries per member. Prints were a bit disappointing for the January competition, we all found a landscape in these military times, somewhat difficult to find. The coastline is obviously an 'area' and the foothills and the camps thereon are equally debarred.
New and intending members are reminded that only current negatives can be used for the production of competition prints, beginners and shutter-blinkers of long standing are placed on an even footing thereby. Your committee will welcome suggestions re a field day, for the reasons already mentioned, cameras cannot wander adlib as in the dear, dead days apparently beyond recall.
