100 YEARS AGO
April 14, 1921
Excitement reigned supreme in and near Madras Monday morning about nine o clock when the residents learned that the storage dam owned by D.M. Clark, located about two miles south of Madras on Willow Creek had been washed out and that the water was coming down on the town. Once or twice before heavy leaks and the overflowing of the dam have frightened the people especially those residing near the creek, and when it was learned that the dam had actually washed out and there was considerable movement apparent. First news was received a few minutes before nine when Mr. Clark mounted on horseback dashed in and began warning residents of the lower parts of town to move.

He had to leave Australia to continue playing the sport he loved.

How ironic Court was given her AC because of gender. This is the person who has waged a bitter campaign against gender and sexuality for many years. Besides, Evonne Goolagong Cawley had already received her well-deserved AC in 2018, thus making a nonsense of the gender balance disparity excuse given by the Council. ....
