And the Editor says

WAITING FOR THE TWAIN . . . TO MEET We have the Police and we have the Public, and at times

it seems that Kipling could easily have included them in his "never the twain shall meet" prophecies. A great brain­teaser these days is how to bring about a blissful meeting and a permanently happy union. Human nature, with its phobias accumulated over the centuries, docs not seem to be of much help.

It is certain that man cannot live alone and el'ti0Y it, or live in company and keep the peace. So there has always been a need for the law to keep him. alive and fairly safe trom his snake-swallow-snake propensities.

But he doesn't like the law!

Even away back in the seeming perfection of the Garden of Eden - there was a man and there was a law, and the man broke the law. From that breach, we have been told, teemed the whole generation of mankind, literally conceived in rebellion - and keenly rebellious ever since.

Man has had enough gumption to realise that he must have the law, and someone to enforce it impartially. Down the centuries he has made and remade enough law to sink the world he lives in - but not enough to make it safe. He has also suffered great evolutionary pains trying to develop an acceptable method and organisation for enforcing the law. This has taken widely differing fonns in different times and different countries. In England it had an essentially cOlllluunal basis until certain forms of "Police" came into being in the early 19th Century, cuhllinating in Robert Peel's introduction of the Metropolitan Police Force in London.

This was the prototype for Police Forces as we know them in the English-speaking countries to-day - a dis­ciplined civilian body recruited, trained and paid for the special purpose of upholding law and order. One would think that that should have relieved the citizens of a great deal of personal worry and responsibility, having a unit especially organised to carry out this vital community function; but there werc no signs or sounds of relief or support. Peel's Police were openly reviled and treated with scarcely believable viciousness, evidently as an accepted phase of self-expression, 19th Century style.

It is not so to-day, of course - yet the thick, muddy line of contempt for the law is always in a well-stretched state. When it is over-stretched, the main target is not the lawmaker but his unfortunate agent, the law enforccr. There may be a lot to be said for making the politicians fight their own wars and enforce their own laws; but the Police have to carry the latter burden.

Good Police work, when recognised, is freely and widely commended; but a great deal of good Police work is often misunderstood, or wrongly construed, or not recognised because of cloudy and irrelevant side issues. This is possibly unavoidable where sllch a number and variety of good, bad and so-so laws have to be enforced; when such a vast cross-section of the community must be handled by the one body - from vicious criminals to lost infants; born liars, spielers and cheats to harmless old ladies; cranks, smart alecs, larrikins and standover thugs to decent law­respecting citizens who never take a step out of line; and every range of mentality and moral outlook in between. Bad Police work is, of course, well and truly roasted, and

The Northern Territory Police Forcels SEC RET W E A P 0 N By Sergeant I Ie Phil McLaughlin

W E are all aware that the Southern Police Forces have their scientific branches and other up to date aids

to Criminal Investigation, but sometimes I wonder if they have anything to equal the Northern Territory "Police Tracker" .

OUf Trackers arc aboriginals and arc employed by the Police Department. Depending Oil the location of the Police Station, they arc either maint'aillcd by the Officer-in-Charge of the Station or, ill the towns, live with their wives and f.-unilics at the nearby Welfare Settlement.

The selection of the Tracker is usually left to the retiring Tracker. For instance, recently one of Ollrs in Alice Springs, Sonny, wanted to leave as his father was getting old and he thought that he would go up the road to Ti-Tree and sit down with him for a while, and perhaps while he was there he would "look for stone" (this means that he would look after his father and, to make ends meet, do a little prospecting in the area). So Sonny was questioned regarding a replacement - "Who is good boy, Sonny, to take your place?" "Well, there is one boy I know him he want to be Tracker. Him good fellow and him read track. Him bush boy born Yuendumu". So the date was arranged when Sonny could finish and he brought his replacement for approval. Sonny showed him around and explained his duties. I found out later that it was his cousin, but this is always so. It is kept in the family, but, as their relations are numerous and have all types of cOllnections, there is a vast pool of available labour. Well, we find out in due course that Sonny was right; this fellow is a good boy and he can track. One of our present Trackers is regarded as a bit of a witch doctor, whom all sick people, and those with troubles, consult. This boy ill his wisdom refers them to the Nursing Sister at the Settlement or other appro­priate agencies. Consequently he commands some respect from those in his group.

Trackers wear a uniform similar to the Police, with the exception that they have their own special badge. Althougl~"" they receive an allowance for uniforms, they rarely have to buy any, as they are well looked after by the Police who are only too glad to pass on uniforms at the expiration of an issued period.

As you may guess, not all natives are good at reading tracks, but you will rarely find one that has been born and bred in the bush who cannot do so. When they are little aboriginal boys are taken around by their £'tthers (they can quite easily have a couple of fathers, one natural one and one similar to our "God-father", and maybe their brother's God-£'lther, etc.) and taken out hunting and reading tracks. They know Charlie's tracks and Billie's tracks and Billie's wife's tracks and their children's tracks by the peculiarities left by their feet on the ground, the same as we recognise people by facial peculiarities and the like. By the time they are about I2 or I3 years old they are good and track animals for food, for pleasure and for sustenance when their £1milies are on walkabout. Looking at the tracks of people is just a sideline, but with practice they, of course, become expert. These boys when they grow up make good trackers, and are the type we use in the Police Force.

Whenever there is a crime, any Policeman worth his wages would not go near the place without letting his

Tracker have a look before the general area is disturbed. Success varies with the type of ground. They are not always successful, but with suitable conditions they are terrific.

Recently we had a "break and enter" in a Store. We first heard about this at about 2 o'clock in the morning when one of the employees of the place called to say that he had disturbed two persons in the store. When he challenged them, he was effectively dealt with by the thieves. as they jabbed their fIngers in his eyes. He recovered sufficiently to see them make their escape out of the back door and across country. At daylight we brought the Trackers into action. They followed the tracks across a river bed and around an area right back to the offenders' house. We then had Ollr suspccts, although, of course, other work was still required to bring thc offenders to Justice. The Tracker gave his evidence before the Court and, with some cor­roboration from other witnesses, the case came to a satis­factory conclusion. Trackers are regarded as expert witnesses by Courts in the Northern Territory. That is, they are able to give opinions of the matters they are expert in, such as, "That track I saw at such and such a place is the same as the one I saw that man make at the Police Station". Naturally, Counsel for the defence does not let them get away with it so easily and tries to throw a poor light on their evidence; but generally they stand up well to cross examination and tell the truth.

Some of the information known to Track~rs from the tracks is amazing. They can llsually tell the height of a persoll, thc type of build he is, such a~ 'heavy around the chest and shoulders; the way he walks, such as a swinging gait~ iEthe man is drunk or not, or injured or favouring one side of his body, etc. - all these things and many more arc left behind with the footprints. I was with a Tracker once in the Mary River area out of Pine Creek. We were looking for a vehicle that had been stolen and we located it bogged on a black soil plain. The Tracker informed me that there had been some natives near the truck and they had ap­parently tried to push the vehicle out of the bog, nO doubt at the requcst of the person who stole the vehicle. The Tracker also informed me that the offender was a white man, gave some other information regarding his build, emphasising that he was a very big fellow, and stated that he and the natives had headed off west. We followed the tracks and camc to a grassy area where thc offender and a girl had lain side by side and proceeded to get acquainted. (The Tracker's description was more carthy, but, Kinscy­wise, quite explicit l) I did not think the Tracker was correct abollt this and was guessing, as this was supposed to havc happened six days before. Well, we followed the tracks further on and later in the day came across a native from Arnhem Land with his three wives and seven childrcn. One of the wives was very small and we called her Kitty which was closc to her native name. Through an interpreter we asked her about this man. She remembered him and quite freely told us that the incident as described by the Tracker was correct in all details.

On another occasion, in Darwin, a cash box was stolen and with the Tracker we followed tracks from the scene. We located the cash box under a culvert - empty, of course. The Tracker was able to give evidence at some lcngth

leaving the rcst in charge of Old Roper Tonuny, ex-Police Tracker, but it was a touchy moment as several tried to get aboard and, unfortunately, I was forced to knock one young buck down with a .45, and threatened to shoot the first to make an attempt to overload. r also had six boys in the flattie towing behind, leaving 10 behind for the second trip. We managed to get dear, but what a taskl The current swung us around trees, into floating logs, and each time a tree was hit we were showered with huge celltipedes and an odd snake, cat or lizard, etc.; but after a battle of two hours we were able to make Telegraph Hill. Never again would I attempt to tow a Rattie with a load of fear­stricken natives, who knew little about rowing or stcering such a crazy craft, and only for the two Trackers, Dick and Nipper, one at tiller and the other on prow, I doubt if we would have got away without disaster. As we neared the now island Telegraph Hill, the shore line was a nHSS of fear-crazed goats, and many drowned and floating and others standing in water up to their necks. All hands carried and filled boats and took most ofthc goods ashore; the alligators got the rest. It did not takc them long to smell the dainty dish. Then whcn all werc cstablished, including a lubra with a broken arm and with a babe at breast, a fire was lit and food prepared, with steaming hot coffce, and all safely under canvas. The two trackers and self left for the second trip, but left thc £lattic behind. The rain storm was gradually increasing in intcnsity and waves werc making it difficult to navigate through the trecs and scrub. We had had enough of those unwanted guests, the centipedes, snakes, ctc. We were greeted with wild yells of delight as we emcrged~"~

from the timber into thc open ncar the house. They had just given up hope and thought we had gone to the bottom, as no-one could hear the throb of the cngine ovcr the terrific storm- or more, cyclone. This trip we took thc remainder, with all swags but no rations, and off again to Telcgraph Hill, but wc only just made it as the flood was like a mill race. It took over a mile of drift bcfore beating the current, and again wild yells from all others as we safely landed.

It was now mid morning and we were off again for more rations and propcrty, but within a mile of the house we heard calls for help from the abo. camp. Making a detour well above the calls, we gradually made our way to the scene of despair, for there wcre nine natives clinging to the topS of low trees and some on a paperbark raft, and one lubra struggling frantically with two little girls that had been washed from thc raft. It was really a pathetic setting and all were in the last stages of exhaustion. Edna was the woman, stongly built and a powerful swimmer, but how she managed to hold these two is beyond me, and even gct them to the raft. The launch had arrived just in time, as not a soul could have got away through such a terrible swirling current. These people had been in the trees all night and were in a state of collapse. We took all aboard

and on again to Telegraph Hill with further yells of ap­probation and wild delight, as it was thought this lot had gonc with thc old people one day ago. Now they were beginning to think these old people had comc to gricf Then off once more after attending to the castaways, fceding, etc. We made the house at 5 p.m. but were unable to take a heavy load of rations owing to the increasing, terrible gale and swirling strong current; also we were too knocked up to carryon. The water was now over the road and a foot from the top floor. Everything possible was put on tables and through thc trap door of the ceiling. Thcn we battled back to Telegraph Hill. Thc two Trackcrs had done a magnificent job, and only for them we could have done very little, if anything at all, as it needed three - mc on the cngine and keeping the magncto dry and attending to the oil and fuel, etc., Nipper on the tiller and Dick on the bow with a hook to ward off logs and free us from trecs, etc. And what artists they were, as you will see as the tale progresses.

During the night the storm increased to near cyclonic intensity and no sleep throughout for all, but we had plenty of food and hot tea and coffee. Telegraph Hill was a com­pletc Island with all the Police horses feeding all high ground and the goats, or what were lcft, trying to sheltcr from the galc in the lower areas near the water, and they

the natives saying, "All about fmish boss - sea come up. Look, sea bird" (seagull), and it was so, as gulls were screeching everywhere and the camp was awash. My bed had been built up 011 fork sticks with grass for a mattress and the water was only inches from where I lay. They all begged me to leave and take them to Gardargabul, a high mountain three miles west of Telegraph Hill, and as there was little left of the hill camp, the cyclone still raging and the water rising more rapidly, I thought it good advice; so at daylight I left the camp in the launch, taking Dick and Nipper and two other natives to build a camp on i"

Gardargabul. Loaded with rations and after a long struggle we made the Mount; and what a din! the old pensioners had made the trip O.K., but had no food, so more yells of delight to know their relatives and friends, children, wives, etc., had been saved; also knowing food was in sight. I was pleased to see them all for the same reason as they themselves; also, now they could help build a camp on the side of the mountain.

I could not make out why the launch was so sluggish, so examined the propeller and, as I lifted it up, it fell off the shaft. The nut was found in the water between two rocks, so Providence was on our side again! After fixing it, we had no further trouble. I retumed four times, bringing in ail 27 natives and children, also the wireless and all rations. Completed all at 5 p.m. and fell down exhausted. The natives had built a good camp with a bush stretcher and covered with fly and bushes and carried me to it. There I lay till the following evening. On awakening, I found everyone clamouring for tucker, most of which was in sealed containers. I also had a good meal and off to sleep till the following morning, January 12th, and what a sight! Nothing but water. They had built the camp about 200

feet up in a flat gully of the mount, so made sure the water

would not get that far. Looking across north-east to the Police Station, or where it should be, all that could be seen were the two water tanks on steel to\yers and the top of the windmill. The house was completely submerged. This I could see with a small telescope I had saved. I issued clothing and blankets to all needing same; also plenty of rations. There were about 50 odd natives there. I climbed to the top of Gardargabul, or what is known as Eagle Point, and put a silk shirt on to a pole and placed it in a rock cairn. I printed on the shirt 'Mount Ararat', date, etc. From this lookout, I should say the river was at least 30 miles wide and wider as nearing the coast. I thought the Mission, 25 miles down stream, would be washed away, but I could do little about it as I had all this lot to care for and feed, etc., and attend the sick and the woman with a broken arm all the time. Poor Biddy, she never complained and was suf­fering very much and suckling a babe. Her loving husband had broken her arm in a fit of passion, but had paid the penalty. I had caught him just before the flood and had him in the cell and only let him out at the last minute, but he will not forget! The whole area was like a vast sea with a mountain peak peeping out here and there. The water was now at -a standstill and the weather seemed broken, and promising brighter days ahead. All were meat hungry, so we set out in the launch for Telegraph Hill, three miles down stream, and on arrival there found the goats racing madly around, having been hunted by alligators, and places where some had been dragged into the water. They were perishing for a drink, but had been afraid of these saurians. After much coaxing and driving they drank their fill, until their stomachs started to bulge to near bursting. After killing three goats, I returned to Gardargabul and dis­tributed the meat to all, and it never hit the ground. How­ever, two days later we managed to get two kangaroos

SCHOOL OF CORRECTION We'll finish up in one, according to some hard-hearted

readers - although our misprints and other misses were not too bad in the second issue. We must apologise to Ted Morcy, though, as we've dOlle the dirty on him twice. His name as author of the story, "The Asphalt Trail", in our original issue, was given as Morley in the first printing. For "The Log". in our last issue, we carefully set out the author's name as Edward Herbert and forgot the Morcy. / Ted is no doubt still wondering just who is the log! We hope there arc 110 slips this time. In case there arC, we state quite defmitely now that the author of "The Trooper Rides Up" is Edward Herbert (Ted) Morcy.

Don Burgess, B.E.M., had his name on a photograph in our last issue, but the photo was of John White. Don has since resigned, but we are assured that it was not because of our lapse. He is now licensee of the Finke Hotel, down near the Northern Territory-South Australia border. In that hot, dry country people have even been caught drinking water, so Don should make a fortune with beer.

Perhaps our most ghasdy slip was to carefully record the wedding of John and Faye Haywood, and then send John off to Adelaide on a six weeks' holiday with Lois, the bride's sister. They wouldn't like that sort of thing in Adelaide, either. Festival or no Festival, it's still widely known as the Holy City. Anyhow, we've had no complaints from Lois about the honeymoon and John's missus is starting to talk to him occasionally now, so everything seems to have nearly sorted itself out. For awhile, though, John was definitely going to shoot the printer. We thought this was jolly sporting of him because when we checked back we found that the mistake was ours, not the printer's!

A BIT OF BARRACKING This intriguing announcement appeared in the Press on

23rd March - SIX YEARS AGO:-"BARRACKS AT DESIGN STAGE

Deputy Commissioner of Police Clive Graham has been shown tentative sketches of the proposed Darwin Police barracks.

The building will be ncar the old Fire Station in Playford Street. It is at the design-list stage. The barracks will accommodate 50 police. No date has been set for construction to start".

"Playford" should read "Packard", but that's only a couple of miles out. It's really all in the last line, as they say.

The prospect of new quarters, with permanent harbour views and bracing sea air, was quite a morale-builder, but the area has since been occupied by other home builders. The site for any new barracks is now to be well inside the main City area, but beyond that point this prophet dare not go! It can be said that the Commissioncr is aiming at the earliest possible achievement of a modern high-standard barracks for both single men and Policewomen.

HOPE FOR HUMANITY LONDON. - The Beatles and other such pop singers

were in danger of losing their voices within a few years, prominent London voice expert Mr. Robert Harrold said at a music festival at Scunthorpe, north-cast England.

"Pop singers who do not have their voiccs properly trained damage their vocal cords. They lose their voices altogether within two or three years", he said.

CITATION - JUNE, 1966

HAMONEGGS L ARRIMAH is the End of the Linc - the Railway

line. This happy little hamlet is just three hundred and thirty-three miles south of Darwin along the bitumen and about half a utile in off the main Stuart Highway. It consists of a Pub. Police Station, P.M.G. Repeater Station, Railway Station and Railway Cottages. The entire popula­tion, according to the last census count - 6 wives, 10

workers and a tribe of little tackers. The Police Statioll (or, as some smart alecs call it, whether

because we appear so happy, here or the infrequent lodgers, Hamon's Happy Holiday Hostel) was opened in 1957 and consists of a residence and out-buildings, such as the Court Room. Trackers Quarters, Office, Cell Block, Store and lighting plant. Here, it is said, can be found the only zoo in Larrimah. Apart from us, the two kids and the Tracker and his wife and child, we have two pigs (wild bush variety), ten ducks (domestic) - one of the male species being isolated with the pigs because of its queer but exceedingly strong fascination for one of the hens, thus lowering the daily quota of eggs - seven hens and one rooster (which can crow louder than any other rooster in the district). There arc three guinea pigs (there were at the time of writing), one pedigree beagle (not BEATLE) bitch with four two-months-old puppies (a special strain obtained without much difficulty when on leave and at a time when minds were on other matters), a big tortoiseshell buck cat and a skewbald mare and foal that you can't get within 50 yards of (preposition or no preposition).

The small Post Office and P.M.G. Repeater Station is operated by a Senior Technician in order to maintain and boost the services of the Overland Telegraph Line. The interior of the Repeater Station gives the impression of being inside a "space station", with its intricate masses of viewing tubes and machinery, variegated lights and hum­ming noises. The Technician and his wife, Peter and Pat, have somewhat contributed to the local population with their four young sons.

Next we have the line of six Railway cottages, towards the very end of the Railway line, which house the Station Master, Fetders, Ganger (Scotty Dunbar, a fellow would-be v·

zoo keeper) and Co-ordinated Transport Plant Operator, Lance Carew (ex Moroak and Mataranka cattle stations).

Then there is the pub. THE PUB! All sorts of recollections, some pleasant,

some dreadful, some hangoverfied, some just plain blank, pass before the mind when this place is mentioned. Naturally, most people will recall this pub being owned and run by the late Jack Mahony (ex-N.T. Policeman) and his wife. The pub is still owned by Mrs. Mahony, but is now leased to Jimmy Yeatman, a former Alice Springs identity and driller.

The Pub? Our Pub!! The Larrimah Pub! !! The hub of the social whirl of Larrimah. Here you can buy and drink any sort of grog imaginable. You can hear what won the last at Caulfield, probably before the mob on the course; hear (except the Policeman) who illegally lIsed Jack Smith's horses last week; how young Greg in a fit of drunken frolic painted Norm's favourite grey mare to resemble a piebald; how Budgie's missus took to him the other evening with the mantel fan in her left hand and the cord in her right, like a stockman 'cracking' up a mob oflazy bullocks; and so on. The place is used for Race Club Committee meetings, social functions and dances, impromptu political

speeches, a boxing arena, darts matches and table tennis tournaments. Every Sunday night you can have free bar­becued rib bones and liquid refreshments for a fee and, if you stay around long enough, you will certainly get your quota of entertainment. Matter of ['lct, if you stayed around long cnough and were quick with a pen, you could ftll two volumes the size of the 'Police Manual' with yarns and pranks.

Besides the entertainment at the Pub, we have tennis competitions between the adjacent townships of Daly Waters, Matarallka and Elliott, played on the (tennis) court at the L'lrrimah Police Station, and duck shooting (in season) at Spear Gorge. There is swimming at Pump Hole, when there has been a good rain, or after motoring 60 miles to the Twelve-mile (prove that one, Pythagoras!) on the beautiful Roper River. We have no rivers or per­manent surf.'lce water at Larrimah and distances mean very little when it comes time for a spot of wallowing and rolling in cool runlling water, regardless of frcsh water sharks and crocodiles. Of course, 011 these occasions we sometimes provide ourselves with a little liquid nourishment in order to safeguard against perishing. I can just imagine it now, as a matter of [.ct, languishing there on a slightly sub­merged ro::k shelf with the sparkling water burbling over a bloke's torso, his head just above surface, a fag in one hand and a can of ice cold 'dew' in the other. Ahhhh! And it's no good asking where this place is because I won't give you the drum. This spot belongs to Nullum and me. It's our special spot and it's full of Barra.

That Nullum! Now there's a character. I remember the night he left his car outside the pub while he went in and did what he wanted to do, see who he wanted to sec, then come out into the darkness to retrieve the car and go home. He felt for the door handle. but all his fumbling could not trace it. Steadying up for closer inspection, he saw that the car had seemingly grown about four feet taller. On trying to mount it he fell to the ground, and in doing so observed that the car was precariously perched on two forty-four
