      't                        Southland  Centennial  (1956)  Car
                                Reliability Trial Committee  to expose
                                3,600  ft.  of  Black  &  White  film  on
                                the  Trial  which  is  to  take  place  in
                                January 1956.
            The  film  unit  will  be  split  up  into  two  cars  which  will  be
          specially adapted  to accommodate two  cine  cameras  mounted
          near  the  windscreens.   Large  posters  will  be  displayed  on
          either  side  of  the  vehicles  advertising  the  Club's  film  unit
          and  the  9.5.mm.  equipment  which  they will  be  using.
            The  route  of  the  Trial  will  take  them  all  over  the  South
          Island  and  therefore  it  is  hoped  that  over  a  very  wide  area
          considerable  interest  will  be  aroused  in  the  activities  of this
          go ahead club.
                      AUSTRALIAN  9.5.  MOVIE  CLUB
            The  members  of  the  Australian  9.5  Movie  Club  have
          recently  established  themselves  in  new  club  rooms  at  100,
          Clarence Street, City, Sydney.
            The  first  night  in  the  new  premises  was  devoted to  a  pro-
          gramme  of  9.5mm.  sound films.   Charlie Chaplin in "Comedy
          Cocktail" and the feature film "South of Panama" were among
           the evening's highlights.
            Earlier  this  year,  the  screening  of  the  A.C.W.'s  Ten  Best
          took  place giving members  an opportunity to see and adjudge
           the standard of amateur productions in Gt.  Britain.
             Always  ready  to  welcome  new  members,  the  club  has  an
           interesting programme ahead of them.

            I  am  an  engineering  student  at  the  University  of  Stellen-
          bosch.  My  cine  equipment  consists  of  a  Gem  projector  and
          Pathe H  motocamera.  I  am sure that you will be glad to know
          that 9.5mm.  has  keen supporters in South Africa.
            I  should  like  to  contact  other  9.5mm.  users in  other  parts
          of  the  world  of  my  own  age,  18  years,  especially  with  the
          view to exchanging "film-letters".- C. VILJOEN, John Murray
