I t has become c l e a r t h a t a new bus r o u t e i n the form of a ' l o o p ' would g r e a t l y improve serv ices between major generators o f t r a f f i c i n Newcastle.
D r R.J. Vaughan, a member o f t h e U n i v e r s i t y ' s Academic Advisory Group which i s i n v e s t i g a t i n g aspects o f t ranspor t t o and w i t h i n the u n i v e r s i t y , has s ta ted t h i s t o the group.
The ' loop ' rou te would, f o r t h e f i r s t t ime, enable ready interchange w i t h bus and r a i l serv ices, he added.
D r Vaughan's proposed bus ' l oop ' cons is ts o f lengths o f road which connect Jesmond, the Un ive rs i t y , the C.A.E., the Mater Hospi ta l , Waratah Sta t ion , t he
e K Mart, Hamilton, Broadmeadow, Lambton Pool and Jesmond. Leaving the U n i v e r s i t y the rou te f o l l o w s Rankin Dr i ve past t he C.A.E. t o
the Mater Hosp i ta l , us ing t h e e x i s t i n g Route 100. The use o f P l a t t S t r e e t takes i t t o Waratah S t a t i o n (Route 102). I t then u t i l i s e s Route 227 v i a K Mart, Georgetown Road, Broadmeadow Road t o Donald S t r e e t . The rou te then f o l l o w s Donald S t r e e t w i t h a r i g h t t u r n i n t o Beaumont S t r e e t and a r i g h t t u r n again i n t o Tudor S t r e e t (Route 220). From t h i s p o i n t Route 233 i s t raced t o Jesmond v i a Broadmeadow, Lambton Road, Hobart Road, Croudace S t r e e t and Newcastle Road. From Jesmond Centre the U n i v e r s i t y i s reached v i a Blue Gum Road.
Exp la in ing t h e fea tures o f t he ' l oop ' , D r Vaughan s a i d the ' l o o p ' must fo l low e x i s t i n g bus routes, o r roads o f a h igh geometric standard. The * operat ion o f buses on l o c a l s t r e e t s damaged the sur face and invo lved payments by the Pub l i c Transport Commission t o the l o c a l a u t h o r i t y concerned.
"The ' l o o p ' must serve a l l t h e major t r a f f i c generators i n the area, i .e. , the Un ive rs i t y , t he C.A.E., the Mater Hospital/Comnonwealth Steel , K Mart, Jesmond Centre. I t must connect these t r a f f i c generators t o the major p u b l i c
C t r a n s p o r t te rmina l , i .e. , Broadmeadow f o r t h e m a j o r i t y o f Newcastle bus routes and Toronto t r a i n s , Waratah S t a t i o n f o r Mai t land t r a i n s . As a secondary f u n c t i o n the ' l o o p ' w i l l o f f e r connections between o the r bus routes .
"The t r a v e l t ime around t h e ' l o o p ' has been est imated from e x i s t i n g t ime tab les a t 40 minutes. The minimum number o f buses requ i red f o r a f e a s i b l e se rv i ce i s four , which would prov ide a frequency o f th ree buses pe r hour each way. The average t r a v e l t ime would then be 30 minutes i n c l u d i n g 10 minutes w a i t i n g time.
"The ' l o o p ' rou te t o some ex ten t dup l i ca tes e x i s t i n g serv ices. It i s envisaged t h a t t h e f o u r buses requ i red would be r e - a l l o c a t e d from these d u p l i c a t e serv ices" .
Inc luded i n t h e advantages o f t h e proposal i s t h e content ion t h a t t he 'loop' r o u t e would serve t h e needs o f p u b l i c t ranspor t users i n t h e area by p rov id ing a more d i r e c t and more f requent serv ice between major t r a f f i c generators. I t would a l so o f f e r super io r in terchange w i t h r a i l and o t h e r bus serv ices t o areas ou ts ide t h e loop.
Dr Vaughan comments f u r t h e r : "The se rv i ce would r e q u i r e 1 i t t l e a d d i t i o n a l expendi t u r e by undertak ing a minor re- organi z a t i o n o f e x i s t i n g routes. Hopefu l ly i t would lead t o a major re- organ iza t ion o f the Mewcastle Bus Sys tern".

Professor R.G.

"As the Committee cannot be given A.U. C. o r Un ive rs i t y finance, we may have t o b u i l d on a three, o r f ive- year canvass, such as was he ld f o r the Great Hal 1 " Professor Tanner said.

Farewell t o Cr icketers
Univers i ty Cr i cke t Club's s t a f f s ide (a f fec t iona te ly , and widely, known as the Venerable Gentlemen) sa id adieu t o David D o c k r i l l and Norm Talbot i n the Staff House on J u l y 31. Both go o f f t o England s h o r t l y on study leave.
There was some suggestion t h a t they are withdrawing when the team's pos i t i on i s de te r i o ra t i ng s ince fewer veterans re tu rn t o the wicket every year and l a s t season's performance i n Th i rd Grade f a i l e d t o produce. a s ing le v i c to ry .
However, as somebo4y a t the farewel l said, David and Norm can be heartened whi 1 s t overseas by the team's expected change t o Fourth Grade and the i nc l us i on of some fit, young players who are i n t h e i r f o r t i e s .
Norm, the team's long-standing poet laureate, w i l l no t be ab le t o w r i t e h i s usual observations o f i nd i v i dua l achievements next season. His most recent . b l u rb noted David's c lose resemblance t o W.G. Grace and gave advice i n the fo l lowing terms:
I
"When you move next season from Th i rd Form t o Fourth Form you may f i n d i t tough up there, bu t keep your chins up - or, i n the case o f batsmen, wicket- keepers and scorers, down.
"On the one hand I would remind bowlers t h a t a l l they need t o improve t h e i r averages i s be t t e r f i e l d i n g (it i s a f t e r a1 1 ba t t l ng and f i e l d i n g t h a t win matches). On the other hand I would remind batsmen t h a t they need more power and t iming t o compensate f o r t h e i r slowness between t he wickets - o r poss ib ly more speed between the wickets t o compensate f o r t h e i r l ack of power and t iming and t h e i r consequent f a i l u r e t o h i t boundaries (bu t i t i s a f t e r a l l bowling and f i e l d i n g t h a t win matches).
"On the t h i r d hand, I would remind f i e l d e r s t h a t a l l they need i s more accurate bowling t o take the pressure o f f t h e i r ground f i e l d i n g and, f o r be t t e r catching, the t h i r d hand (but, a f t e r a l l , i t i s b a t t i n g and bowling t h a t lose matches)".
