The report below has been prepared using information obtained from a variety of sources and is, to the best of our knowledge, the most accurate information available on the establishment of the sport of karting in New Zealand to date (Sep 2004).
REFERENCE MATERIALThe original report was written by Mr Jack Elvey from Hamilton, New Zealand, in July 1961.Mr Elvey held the position of Official Historian to the North Island Go Kart Association as well as being an executive member of both the North Island Go Kart Association and the New Zealand Amateur Go Kart Association.Auckland Star reports June 15th 1959 and June 29th 1959New Zealand Herald report 16th September 1959Christchurch Paper report 24th November 1959Christchurch Star report 14th May 1960Auckland Amateur Go Kart Club Constitution – Declaration of registration signed by Mr Donald John Sinton and dated 2nd December 1959.New Zealand Companies Office.KARTSPORT IN NEW ZEALAND – THE EARLY HISTORYThe sport of karting originated in America in 1956 when a long term hot rodder Art Ingles built himself a small car frame to provide himself with the smallest, economical form of racing car available. For a power unit, he mounted a West Bend two cycle 2 ½ hp motor on it and the very first KART was born.
Wherever Art drove his little car he found himself being watched by an army of onlookers. People kept watching as Art put his car through its paces, and queries about the new vehicle were numerous. With so much interest in his sole machine, Art felt sure that commercially built cars of similar design would sell, at least in and around Southern California. Arts boss, Frank Kurtis was not interested but a Southern California surplus dealer, Bill Rowles saw the car, as yet unnamed, in mid 1957 and realized the potential of the tiny racer and tried to interest first Art in its sales possibilities, then other friends, hot rodders and builders of the already popular quarter midget.
Bill Rowles then met Duffy Livingstone and Roy Desbrow, who between them built their own version of Art Ingels car. A careful count of the cars then in existence showed that some 30 existed when the magazine "Rod and Custom" got wind of them and turned up with a camera in tow. Staffers treated to a ride, were quick to get the story into print. (November 1957). Casting about for a general term for the little powered vehicle, "Rod and Custom" elected to call the creations GO KARTS.
The story broke and Livingstone, Rowles and Desbrow could see that the term GO KART would stick with any cars of this type and promptly organised the Go Kart Manufacturing Company and wisely began offering do-it-yourself kits.
Other manufacturers, awake to the tremendous interest and possibilities, started to market their own versions. Unfortunately, many kart builders took little heed of basic safety requirements.
In December of 1957, the GO KART CLUB of AMERICA was formed. The G.K.C.A. formulated rules and regulations and with the publicity given to these rules and the dimensions etc of the new Karts, a new chapter in the history of Karts was commenced.
The first Kart raceway had 345 feet (105m) of straight, a banked turn at one end and a total length of 795 feet (242m). By today's standards, this would be small with the average length of a modern track being around 800-950 meters.
The very first Go-Kart Nationals of America were held at Azusa and proved to be a huge success.
The first recorded article on the new American sport of Go-Karting appearing in an N.Z. newspaper was an article entitled, "Who'll Go Karting", which appeared in the "Auckland Star" of June 15th 1959. This article really started something. Two weeks later, the "Auckland Star", June 29th 1959, published a follow-up article, giving a very much fuller description of the Karts, the engine sizes, a description of the Azusa track etc.
The article also announced the formation of N.Z's first Go Kart Club. The Auckland Mini Kart Club commenced in July 1959, at Parkinson's farm in Mangere, Auckland, not far from the international airport with 8 members and 5 Karts under construction. The first President was Mr B.C. Boyle and the Secretary was Mr. W.D. Henderson.
From this announcement onwards clubs were formed all over the Auckland Province, using the Auckland clubs Kart plans and regulations. On the 12th July 1959, Mr Jack Elvey (later to become the North Island Amateur Go Kart Associations Historian) joined the Auckland club and was given the job of helping establish the Waikato area. The position in N.Z. as at September 1959 was almost the same as was the position in America in December 1957 when the G.K.C.A. was formed. The sport was growing at such an incredible rate that often the safety factor was totally ignored. It became apparent at this stage that a central body to control the new sport was an urgent necessity.
The Pukekohe Go Kart club (formed 4th August 1959) called a General Meeting at Pukekohe on 19th September 1959 and invited two delegates from each of the known clubs then in existence. The N.Z. Herald in their issue of the 16th September 1959 published an article on Go-Karting with particular reference to this meeting to be held at Pukekohe.
The meeting was a tremendous success and the first N.Z. body to direct and control Go Karting was formed on the 19th September 1959 – the New Zealand Amateur Go Kart Association. This body was later changed to the New Zealand Kart Federation with a registered constitution and in 2002 became KartSport New Zealand.
The first publicly elected officers of the New Zealand Amateur Go Kart Association were:
President: D.C. McAllansmith (Pukekohe)Vice-President: F. Stevens (Auckland)Sec.-Treasurer: P. Greenhalgh (Auckland)Committee: J.L. Elvey (Hamilton) D. Sinton (Auckland) J. Gair (Whangarei) P. Cantwell (Tauranga) A.Hogan (Papakura) C. Dahlin (Auckland)
In the South Island, word of Go-Karting had reached Christchurch and in a Christchurch Paper dated 24th November 1959 an article appeared stating "Go-Kart racing to open soon in Christchurch". In this article, club captain of the Windsor Motor Club, Mr B H Paton, said that "widespread interest had been aroused in go-karting since the intention to introduce this new branch of motor racing sport to the South Island had been announced". Since the Windsor Club had made it's announcement earlier in the month, the clubs secretary had received nearly forty enquiries from intended competitors. The idea had been put forward to the club by a young enthusiast, Mr D J G Monty, and his proposal was recommended by the racing committee and subsequently adopted by the club council.
In December 1959 the original number of eight karters from the Auckland Mini Kart Club had swelled to many, and the decision was made to form an incorporated society to cater for their needs. This became known as the AUCKLAND AMATEUR GO KART CLUB and its secretary, Mr Donald Sinton registered its constitution on 2nd December 1959. This is the first known officially constituted Kart Club in New Zealand.
Don Sinton is recognized as one of the founders of the sport in New Zealand, and one of the first kart frame manufacturers in the country who was later awarded Life Membership of KartSport New Zealand in 1965. It was through his efforts, both as secretary of the A.A.G.K.C. and in manufacturing the Sincart, that the sport really got going.
To promote this new form of motorsport, he teamed with the President of the A.A.G.K.C, Mr John Stevens and his son Jack Stevens in December 1959, to drive a kart to Wellington and then on down the South Island to Dunedin. Between Auckland and Wellington, they covered some 550 miles and started up two clubs on the way. Their total elapsed driving time was twelve and three-quarter hours at an average of 38 mph. In doing so, they broke the world Karting distance and enduro record set on 17th July 1959 in the USA.
Following this promotion and at a subsequent meeting of the N.Z. Amateur Go Kart Association held at Mangere, Auckland, Mr Sinton reported that he had been approached in Christchurch by a band of enthusiasts and club members who wished to form a South Island Go Kart Association with the approval of the N.Z. Go Kart Association. Members of the N.Z.A.G.K.A. present confirmed Mr Sinton's action in giving them the go-ahead.
A report stating that the South Island Go Kart Association had been formed very early in 1960 with the approval of the N.Z.A.G.K.A. appears in the Christchurch Star Sports edition of May 14, 1960. The S.I.G.K.A. adopted without alteration the N.Z.A.G.K.A. specifications, but went further and drew up a set of competition regulations. The S.I.G.K.A. then had the machine specifications and competition regulations printed as the "1960 Regulations for General Competition"
At a Committee Meeting of the N.Z.A.G.K.A. called for March 19th 1960, one of the agenda items was Championship meetings. Two members were present from the New Plymouth Go Kart Club seeking permission from the N.Z.A.G.K.A. to change the status of their 2 day Go-Kart Championship meeting at Easter Weekend 1960 from the Taranaki Championships to the New Zealand Championships.
The N.Z.A.G.K.A. agreed to this provided that all Go Karts complied with the N.Z. Amateur Go Kart Association's specifications and the event would be run under the New Plymouth Clubs competition Rules. The New Plymouth club agreed to this and the event become the first New Zealand Championship, advertised in the New Plymouth circular dated 26th March 1960 and contested in New Plymouth at Easter 1960.
The advantage was taken of the fact that most North Island Go Kart clubs would be represented at New Plymouth during the Easter Weekend of 1960 and a meeting of Clubs was held at New Plymouth on Good Friday. It is at this point that the North Island Go Kart Association was established and took over the control of North Island Go Karting from the N.Z. Amateur Go Kart Association (Easter 1960). At this meeting, it was decided that the sport should be organized on District lines and that future delegates to the N.I.G.K.A. come up through the District committee level. Wellington District was the only body currently organised along these lines and were represented this way at the meeting in New Plymouth
Officers elected to the N.I.G.K.A. at New Plymouth, Easter 1960, were :
President: Mr P. Richards - Tauranga
1st Vic-President: Mr A. Laurent - Morrinsville
2nd Vice-President: Mr N. Dabb- Tokoroa
Chief Steward: Mr P. Regan - Rotorua
Gen. Secretary: Mr B. Marshall - Tauranga
Auditors: Messrs Hoare & Ladkin - Tauranga
Committee:W. Shuker - Napier
W. Morris - Tokoroa
C. Head Morrinsville
C. Thomas - Hastings
J. Downs - Pukekohe
J. Elvey - Hamilton
The first Committee meeting of the N.I.G.K.A. was held in Tauranga on the 11/12 June, 1960.At this meeting, 3 new delegates were elected to the committee. They were:- Mr T.C. McDowell (Wellington), Mr A.T. Lea (Taranaki), and Mr D.K. Curtis (Poverty Bay-East Coast).
In July 1960, it was felt that the District Scheme of control should be put into operation immediately, rather than wait for the next Annual Meeting in 1961.
This meeting was duly convened and was held at Taupo on 20/21 August 1960, when new officers were elected on the Provincial representation basis.
The following Officers were elected :
Vice-President: Mr N. Dabb - Tokoroa
Vice-President: Mr B. Gibb
Sec./Treasurer: Mr B. Marshall - Tauranga
Auditor: Mr P. Hoare, A.P.A.N.Z. - Tauranga
Executive: Mr John Callender - Taranaki
Mr Jock Rovard - Wellington
Mr Colinn McDowell - Wellington
Mr Olive Berry - Taranaki
Mr Bill Shuker - Hawkes Bay
Mr Ray Lowe - Hawkes Bay
Mr Noel DabbSouth - Auckland
Mr Bruce GibbSouth - Auckland
Mr Maurice Turner - Auckland
Mr Jim Downs - Auckland
Official Historian:Mr Jack Elvey - Hamilton
The N.I.G.K.A. staged its first annual North Island Championships at Tauranga on Saturday, December 31st 1960 and Monday January 2nd 1961.
The most sought after kart of the day was the Suzakart - a Sincart with the choice of Suzuki engines, 50 cc 4.5 HP 8000 rpm, 150 cc 9.5 HP 7000 rpm, all with 4-speed gearboxes.
During the early sixties a new trend appeared in karting, smaller wheeled karts with more compact engines, ie the McCollough, became popular and a number of karters moved to racing on sealed circuits while drivers of the larger wheeled machines continued to compete on grass/dirt tracks.
In July 1961 there were a total of 46 Clubs affiliated to the North Island Go Kart Assn :-
Auckland, Bay of Plenty, East Coast Bays, Far North, Foxton , Frankin, Gisborne, Hamilton, Huntly, Hastings, Hawera, Helensville, Kawerau, Levin, Mana, Murapara, Masterton, Mangakino, Matamata, Morrinsville, Manawatu, Northern Wairoa, North Shore, Northland Minicart, Ngaruawahi, Napier, New Plymouth, Opotiki, Otaki, Pahiatua, Paraparaumu, Rotorua, Silverdale and Districts, Taupo, Taihape, Te Aroha, Thames, Tokoroa, Te Kuiti, Tauranga Amateur, Waitara, Waihi, Whakatane, Waipa, Wanganui, and Wellington.
Although the NZAGKA continued in existence much of the administration and control of the sport was handled by the North and South Island Associations.
However, on the 5th April 1963, an Incorporated Society was registered as the national body to represent the collective interests of karters and was known as the New Zealand Go Kart Federation, this name was later changed to New Zealand Kart Federation and then in 2002 renamed KartSport New Zealand.
For many years following this the North and South Island Associations continued to be affiliated members of the National Body.

Vancouver has been named the 15th best city in the world for remote workers, according to a new ranking where three Canadian cities cracked the top 20.
WorkMotion released their ranking on Thursday, pegging Montreal second, Toronto sixth, and Vancouver 15th in terms of their friendliness towards virtual workers.
The agency looked at how attractive cities are to remote employees by analyzing their cost of living, infrastructure, liveability, and remote work compliance regulations. The rankings also looked at trends showing where remote workers are currently being hired from.
"The resulting index reveals which cities are facilitating remote working best, and which are most attractive for remote workers to relocate to," WorkMotion said in a release.

- Nearly 20% of Canadians would quit if forced back to office post-COVID
Melbourne, Australia, took home first place thanks to its specific visa for digital nomads, political stability, friendliness towards the LGBTQ+ community, local cultural attractions, and healthcare system.
It's fairly easy for remote workers to comply with local laws in Toronto and Vancouver, but none of the three Canadian cities made the top 10 in terms of tax friendliness toward remote workers.
Predictably, Toronto and Vancouver ranked high for good access to healthcare. But they were beat by cities in Asia and South America in terms of affordability.
"When identifying possible destinations for relocation, remote workers must consider a range of factors ranging from the practical to the desirable," said Carsten Lebtig, co-founder and managing director of WorkMotion. "Not many cities can offer them all, but it's undeniable that cities legislating to attract remote workers become far more attractive than those that don't."
WorkMotion is an HR platform that specializes in letting companies onboard and pay their remote employees easily.

EL CID OR DON QUIXOTE? Analysis: Caragiulo tilts at the noise ordinance ��� Stan Zimmerman Live and amplified music downtown is a third rail of Sarasota city politics. So it is a great surprise that first-term City Commissioner Paul Caragiulo is getting ready to joust with the thousands of voters who live downtown and go to bed early. On Oct. 27, he took testimony in a town hall-style meeting packed with musicians and people who like music, people who have not heard much music downtown for the past decade ���since the city imposed a draconian noise ordinance. It is draconian because a complainer may remain anonymous and because the sound level is measured at the source and not at the point of complaint.

- French President François Hollande confirms there were no survivors
- The French government says 54 of its national were killed, not 51 as originally reported
- Elysée Palace says there were 118 people aboard the plane, not 116
- France says the plane was not shot down, however Holland says no avenues have been excluded
- Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said the most probable cause of the plane crash was the weather
17:30: Here's the latest story from AFP on the Air Algérie crash:
France announced Friday there were no survivors on board the Air Algerie flight that crashed in Mali as it emerged that several families were wiped out in the tragedy.
Such was the apparent violence of the crash — increasingly blamed on bad weather — that debris shown in the first available footage of the impact site were barely recognisable as parts of an aircraft.
There were conflicting tolls of whether there were 118 or 116 people aboard the flight.
"Sadly, there are no survivors," President Francois Hollande said on television, a day after the plane, carrying 54 French nationals, went down shortly after take-off from Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso.
The McDonnell Douglas 83 jet, operated by Spanish charter firm Swiftair on behalf of Air Algerie, was also carrying passengers and crew from Burkina Faso, Lebanon, Algeria, Spain, Canada, Germany and Luxembourg.
It was unclear exactly how many people were on board, as Swiftair put the number at 116 while the French presidency said 118 passengers and crew were on the jet.
On Friday, Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius revised the death toll of French nationals up from 51 to 54.
The first footage of the crash site in Mali's hard-to-reach Gossi region, filmed by soldiers from nearby Burkina Faso, showed a stark, sandy-looking terrain littered with debris, the ground blackened in some areas.
The jet was on its way to Algiers when it crashed amid reports of heavy storms in the area, shortly after the pilots radioed in that they were diverting course due to difficult weather conditions.
French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said weather conditions appeared to be the most likely cause of the accident — the worst air tragedy for French nationals since the crash of the Air France A330 from Rio de Janeiro to Paris in June 2009.
But Hollande insisted that no potential cause for the accident was being left out.
Swiftair has a good safety record and the head of France's civil aviation authority said Thursday that the MD-83 had passed through France this week and been given the all-clear.
The plane crash is the third in the space of just eight days, capping a disastrous week for the aviation industry.
On July 17, a Malaysia Airlines plane crashed in eastern Ukraine, killing all 298 people on board. And a Taiwanese aircraft crashed in torrential rain in Taiwan on Wednesday, killing 48.
France has been hugely active in search and retrieval efforts for the Air Algerie plane, dispatching military forces and crash experts to the site after one of its drones found the wreckage.
The country already has a strong military presence in the area after it launched an offensive in Mali last year to stop Islamist extremists and Tuareg rebels from marching onto Bamako.
Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian told reporters that around 180 French and Malian forces had arrived on the crash site, as had 40 Dutch soldiers from the MINUSMA UN stabilization force in Mali.
"Their mission is to make the zone secure and to allow information to be gathered, which will be essential for the investigation," he said.
The black box flight recorder of the plane has already been recovered, Hollande said earlier.
16:38: The Spanish crew aboard flight AH5017 had already made the Algiers-Ouagadougou trip five times together before the crash, said Algerian Transport Minister Amar Ghoul.
15:57: French Minister of State for Foreign Trade Fleur Pellerin said there were not apparently any suspicious passengers aboard flight AH5170. She said an initial check has not raised any red flags, but to rule out any suspicion and deeper inquiry will need the run its course.
15:24: France has revised upward the number of its nationals killed in the crash of AH5017 to 54. Officials initially reported 51 French citizens were killed. This final tally includes people with dual citizenship.
15:20: Pope Francis has expressed his "deepest condolences and passed the families his deepest sympathy during this trying time," in a message to the archbishop of Algiers.
14:47: Hollande will meet with the families of the victims on Saturday, all of whom have been notified of their loved ones' deaths. So far some 5,000 calls have poured into the hotline the government set up to communicate with victims' families.
14:33: Europe 1 is reporting that Air France has forbidden its aircraft from flying over Mali in the wake of the Air Algérie flight's crash in the northern part of the country.
14:20: The grainy footage shows bits of the fuselage scattered over a large, sandy-looking terrain of dry shrubs, which is blackened in some areas. Such was the violence of the apparent impact, that the debris seen on the video was barely recognisable as parts of an aircraft.
14:00: France is sending several dozen 'gendarme' police officers to the crash site to help with the investigation.
13:00: Hollande has spoken with his Malian counterpart, President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita, and the leaders have agreed to work closely to establish the truth about what brought the plane down and ensure victims' bodies are repatriated in the best conditions, according to Elysée Palace.
12:45: The Elyée Palace has upped the death toll flight AH5017, noting there were 118 people aboard the plane and not 116 as previously reported. The government still says there were 51 French people on the jet.
12:32: Ten members of the Reynaud family from the town of Lorette in central France were killed in the crash, French daily Le Dauphiné reported. A man and his ex-wife, their two children, their two daughters-in-law and four grand children were aboard the flight.
12:00: Hollande has called a crisis meeting at the Elysée Palace on Saturday at 10am to discuss the crash of flight AH5017 which is to include his prime, interior, defense, and foreign ministers.
11:30: Despite earlier comment from a minister, Hollande is not ruling out that the plane was shot down, saying "We have not excluded any hypothesis." He said weather-related problems is one of the avenues being probed by investigators.
11:25: French troops are at the crash site and have recovered one of the plane's in-flight data recorder, the so-called 'black box,' and are rushing it off for analysis, Hollande says.
11:04: President François Hollande has just told reporters French troops at the scene of crash have confirmed there were no survivors from flight AH5017.
10:18: The hometowns of some of victims have emerged, with a family of four from the village of Menet and a five others from the town of Quatre-vents. Both towns are in central France.
10:00: France's top leadership was meeting this morning to share information and create an action plan after the Air Algérie flight crash.

9:53: Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said the most likely cause of Thursday's crash was bad weather conditions: "We think that this plane crashed for reasons pertaining to meteorological conditions," he said on RTL radio
09:40: Cuvillier says "We have excluded from the start the possibility of a strike from the ground," he said on French television, rejecting speculation that the jet with 116 people on board, including 51 French nationals, could have been shot down by rebels in Mali's restive north.
09:30: France's Transport Minister Frédéric Cuvillier says the plane had been inspected a week prior during a stop in Marseilles and was in good shape.
"We have found the Algerian plane. The wreck has been located … 50 kilometres (30 miles) north of the Burkina Faso border" in the Malian region Gossi, said General Gilbert Diendiere of the Burkina Faso army.
"At the moment we have no further information on (the fate of) the passengers but our teams are hard at work," he said.
Diendiere gave no indication as to what may have caused the plane to crash.
The French president's office said Friday the jet was clearly identified even though it had "disintegrated".
A "French military unit has been sent to (the area) to secure the site and gather evidence", it added in a statement.
President Francois Hollande expressed his solidarity with the families and friends of the victims.
Flight AH5017, which took off from Ouagadougou bound for Algiers with 51 French nationals aboard according to French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, went missing amid reports of heavy storms, company sources and officials said.
The airline said there were also 24 Burkinabe, eight Lebanese, six Algerians, six Spanish, five Canadians, four Germans and two Luxembourg nationals on board.
Canadian media said a Canadian family of four were among the victims.
The mother, father and two children lived in a suburb of Montreal and were returning home with a friend — a resident of nearby Sherbrooke, Quebec — from another couple's 50th wedding anniversary celebrations in Burkina Faso, said French-language broadcaster LCN.
An Air Algerie official in Montreal was not able to confirm the reports.
The flight had been presumed lost even before Hollande appeared on TV to announce: "Everything leads us to believe that the plane has crashed."
He said the plane's Spanish crew had signalled they were altering course "due to particularly difficult weather conditions".
Fabius had said earlier that "contact was lost with the McDonnell Douglas 83 at 1:47 (local time), a little after the pilots said they were diverting from the route due to meteorological reasons".
Poor visibility
Mali, Algeria, Niger and France coordinated their search efforts under the umbrella of the French-led military intervention in Mali, Operation Serval.

thedamian, as an academic, has a very different style and one with which I am more comfortable. As others have said, he perhaps contrives things a little to get his point across, but that is what he does all day!
As for making me a better coder? Yes, it has made me rethink a number of practices, and whilst not following all his prescriptions, I can understand why he propsed them.

What do you want from your relationship with your dentist? Oftentimes, this question is answered when there is a dental problem or emergency requiring immediate attention. There is a different approach to your relationship with your dentist that relates to your own needs and dental health.
This approach is designed to help you create the kind of experiences you want with your dentist. You have a choice about this relationship and how it can support and assist you in your life. It begins with the simple question stated at the beginning of this article: What do you want from your relationship with your dentist?
The answer to this question can take many forms. For some people it may mean having a lot of information about their dental health and future. They seek facts to know they are making good, informed decisions. Others may want a friendly relationship in which openness and communication are valued.
They want information but, more importantly, they want to know they are important to the dentist and the dental team. Some individuals want minimal information and discussion -- just the facts and the solutions to take care of any problem.
We all have different wants in our relationships with health professionals such as dentists. Here are four tips to assist you in deciding what you want in your relationship with your dentist:
Each person looks for different things in their relationships. It is your responsibility to determine what you want and look for that in the relationship with your dentist. The answers to the questions above will tell you something about this.
The next step is communicating what you want so that you are understood. Only you know when someone else understands you. Here are four tips to assist you in this communication process:
Communicating what you want is important to your dentist for it is the best way for him or her to plan for the optimal dental health for you.

Chapter Four
'What? Hasn't he even called in, or anything?' Helen asked the girl, sounding quite surprised when she was told that Alexis hadn't shown up for work. The girl simply shook her head, then asked if we wanted to order anything.
Helen didn't answer immediately, the deep furrow across her brow indicating that her thoughts were elsewhere, so I asked her for two cappuccino's to take away.
'So, what do you think that's all about?' I asked when the girl left us to go and make our coffees.
'I'm not sure,' she replied, 'but I guess he'll surface when he's good and ready. Randy bastard probably scored last night, or something.'
'Sounds like a randy bastard and a lucky bastard then!' I added.
'Don't you talk!' she scolded, with a laugh. I simply winked at her in reply.
While we were waiting for our coffees I turned and leant back against the counter and looked out onto the street, watching the world pass by in their early morning rush. If there was one thing that I could say about the inner city it was that it certainly attracted all sorts.
Everywhere you looked you could see people from all walks of life. There were the young high-powered suit wearing, briefcase carrying, executive types, rushing here and there and always running late. The derro's and prostitutes – including those that were both too young and too old – who lived in Hyde Park and the surrounding back alleys, and plied their trade anywhere they could. Then there were the respectable shop-keepers and the wide-eyed tourists all jostling for their piece of the sidewalk.
It was certainly a strange mixture of humanity, but somehow everyone seemed to get by without any major problems. Or at least it seemed that way on the surface. What may be festering below, however, was another matter altogether and that was a side of the city, where the grimy underbelly of society resided, that I was yet to become fully acquainted with.
As we waited there I noticed an old man start to cross the street and head toward the shop we were in, dodging between one row of cars, then theatrically holding up one hand and stopping the next lane of traffic as he crossed the busy road. He received an angry blast from the horn of a taxi that he had stopped, gave a one-fingered salute in return, then continued to proceed toward us as if nothing had happened.
He walked with an air of authority which belied his somewhat incongruous appearance and even without knowing anything about him I could almost sense that he was, or had once been, a somebody. Whatever he may have once been however, it was a far cry from what he was now.
He was wearing joggers, that I can only presume were once white, an ill-fitting and rather tattered pin-striped suit over a grubby business shirt, all of which was topped off with a mop of thick grey hair which, no matter how many times he tried to pat it down as he walked, seemed to defy gravity.
At first glance I would have put him in his sixties, but as he came closer to us it came as quite a surprise when I realised he wasn't anywhere near as old as that. In fact, if I'd have had to have a bet on it I wouldn't have put him as being any older than fifty.
When he reached the footpath he headed straight for the door to the café and stepped inside, however he almost stopped dead in his tracks when he noticed Helen and me waiting by the counter.
Recovering his composure rather quickly he gave Helen a slight nod, which was returned, and then proceeded toward the far end of the counter where he fingered the coins in his hand and carefully counted them. He ordered and paid for a coffee and a croissant from one of the other girls in the shop, asked where Alexis was today and received the same reply that we had, which only seemed to cause him to frown, then he stood back and watched us out of the corner of his eye while he waited for his coffee.
'You know him?' I whispered to Helen.
'Yeah,' she replied. 'Everyone knows him. His name is Sid Partridge. Used to be a big time Barrister, until he got into the habit of celebrating his famous victories with a little too much exuberance. Ended up losing his wife, his kids, his house, his job . . . everything. And that was when he really hit the bottle.'
'What does he do now? Live on the streets?'
'Uh huh.'
'He seems to be quite wary of you. What did you do, bust him for something?'
'Nah, but we've had our fair share of run-ins over the years.'
'I bet you have.'
'Don't ever underestimate him. He can be a useful person to know, even allowing for his current . . . errr . . . circumstances. He can also be as dangerous as a snake; especially if you happen to get between him and a bottle of booze.'
'I'll try and remember that.'
'You just make sure you bloody well do!'
We left the café a few minutes later after our coffees were brought to us and I had paid for them, all the while under the watchful eye of Sid Partridge who seemed to be scrutinising us out of the corner of one eye.
Helen asked the girl who had served us to make sure that she told Alexis that she had been asking after him, then she turned to Sid and said, 'See ya, Sid.'
He gave us a nod and then quickly turned away, while we made our way back out onto the street and turned toward Circular Quay, which we knew would still be packed with commuters heading for work.
'He sure seemed like a bit of an oddball,' I said to Helen as we strolled along in the morning sunshine, while sipping our coffees.
'Yeah, he is. But like I said, kid, just don't underestimate him.'
She gave me a nod, as if she were satisfied that I really did understand what she meant and after that we walked along in silence, as traffic whizzed past close by us on the nearby street. I do have to admit that I still wasn't quite sure what it was that she meant exactly, about underestimating Partridge, but my curiosity was certainly aroused by the air of mystery that Helen had now given him. I guessed that given time I would find out all there was to know about the man, but I had already decided that I was going to ask around anyway.
Suddenly we copped a blast of the exhaust fumes from a bus, bringing me swiftly back to the present. As I coughed and spluttered and tried gulping in something that was a bit fresher, I came to the realisation that I wasn't quite so in love with the inner-city any more.
* * * * *
We took our time as we headed down to Circular Quay, where we found the air somewhat cleaner and the River Cat having just docked, with passengers from Parramatta now disembarking. From a distance we stood and watched them shuffle off the boat and along the wharves until the last person had passed us by. I noticed that Helen seemed to be studying almost every face, but she said nothing to me as she did so, and I offered no questions either. I figured that if there was something I needed to know I would be told all in good time.
After we left the wharves we took a stroll around the grassy park area between there and The Rocks, where people were sunning themselves in the glorious morning, or reading their morning newspapers, or feeding the pigeons. Helen said nothing as we strolled around amongst the punters and so of the purpose of this walk I wasn't quite sure, but once more Helen seemed to be looking for something. Or someone.
Not long after that we found ourselves heading back toward Darlinghurst Station, with my legs starting to ache from all the walking and the climb up from the Quay. After a couple of blocks Helen started opening up again, filling me in on some more of what she thought I should know about those I was now working with, but saying nothing more about our morning walk. All things considered, however, the walk still proved to be quite enlightening, although not exactly what I would be able to call exciting.
We crossed Elizabeth Street at the intersection with Market, then strolled through Hyde Park, past the beautiful Archibald Fountain and along the path, sharing it with walkers and skateboard riders and the like. Eventually we came out of Hyde Park and I found that we were almost opposite St Mary's Cathedral, which was where the one exciting moment of our morning occurred, while we were waiting at the traffic lights to cross the road.
As we stood there I noticed a group of what were mainly teenagers riding their skateboards on the vast concrete forecourt of the cathedral. Helen and I were both watching them, showing off in front of their mates and laughing and carrying on as if they hadn't a care in the world. There was one boy in particular that stood out from the others and he was the one I soon found myself staring at; which was something that didn't go unnoticed by Helen.
I would like to think that it may have been the daring manoeuvers he seemed to accomplish with such ease that caught my eye. In reality however it was more likely the fact that I was a relatively normal gay male in my early twenties and he was a real live skater boy, around eighteen years old, wearing no shirt and with the body of a Greek god; which was glistening with sweat on this warm morning. What clothes he did wear were all the latest rage, as he had wisps of long brown hair sticking out from beneath his tea-cosy hat, while the tops of his boxer shorts protruded from the waist band of his loose hanging cut-off cargo pants.
'What do you reckon he'll do for his next party trick?' Helen asked me as we watched him skate lazily around in a large circle, having just completed a spectacular mid-air triple spin after skating off the top of a set of stairs and landing safely at the bottom.
'Who knows?' I shrugged, then whispered, 'But I wouldn't mind taking him home and finding out just what other tricks he has up his sleeve.'
She glanced sideways at me with an expression of mock disgust, then simply grinned and shook her head and turned away.
We didn't have long to wait to find out what his next trick was to be however, as we watched him line up and skate toward another set of stairs which led to another lower level. There was a railing down the middle of the steps, which he seemed to be heading straight for, and as we saw him gathering speed it wasn't too difficult to work out what he was planning.
As he launched himself into the air there was a collective intake of breath from those who were standing around us, all of whom seemed to be watching skater boy's show as well. That sound was soon replaced however by a collective groan, as we saw his board hit the railing and skater boy fly head-first onto the concrete paving.
We watched as he got back to his feet and brush himself off, with his mates all cheering and laughing at him, as he quickly looked around to see how many other people had witnessed his fall from grace. He then re-adjusted the shorts that were hanging low on his hips and we all soon realised that apart from a few bumps and scratches maybe, the only thing that was hurt was his pride.
It was then that the lights turned green and we all crossed the road, with Helen and me heading for the station and our squad room, which we predictably found to be empty.
'What next then?' I asked Helen as I perched myself on the edge of my rather empty desk. She walked around to her chair and sat down, picking up and reading the scraps of paper that had been left on her desk.
'How 'bout you tell me, hotshot?' she replied, after quickly shuffling through the messages and then putting them back down. 'I reckon it's about time I found out for real if you're everything they say you are!'
There was a mischievous gleam in her eyes, as if she thought that she was throwing out a challenge that would catch me out, and while my first reaction may have been one that scared me I quickly realised that this was what I was trained for and if I didn't react now then my future here would be a short one.
'Well?' she demanded.
'Well, I suppose we'd best head over to St Vincent's and see how the kid that got bashed is doing, and see if he'll give us a statement. Then we'd best check out your friends and see if their guest managed to behave himself last night. Then depending on how things go there we may have to swing by and visit with our Mr. Jarvis and possibly bring him in for a quiet chat and some happy snaps. And after that . . . I guess we should probably go and find out what the big deal is out at the motor-pool. Did I miss anything?'
She smiled.
'That'll just about do it, kid. Although I'm sure that if we try hard we'll be able to throw in a few other adventures for you.'
'Why am I not surprised?'
'Come on. Let's get our asses over to the Hospital before some idiot discharges the boy because they need the bed or something.'
* * * * *
It wasn't that far to St. Vincent's Hospital, but we decided that we had had enough of walking for one day and so we took Helen's car.
After asking directions at the front desk we made our way to the ward where the kid had been taken and after that it didn't take us long very to find out which room he was in. I think it was the uniformed cop sitting on a chair outside the room that was the dead giveaway.
We flashed our badges at the Constable, who looked as if he was fresh out of the Academy, and with a nod he let us pass – not that he could have prevented us from doing so anyway considering he didn't even get to his feet, or ask us who we were.
I opened the door and then followed Helen inside, closing the door behind us then turned to take in the contents of the room, which was much like any other you would find in a hospital. The place smelled like any other hospital ward I've ever been in, with an almost overwhelming stench of disinfectant. There was a window, which looked straight out toward the blank brick wall of another wing of the hospital, plus two small lockers standing in two of the corners, next to two beds, of which only one was occupied.
The boy would have only been about fifteen or sixteen, I would have thought. He had dark eyes and short brown hair that somehow still managed to jut out all over the place, and apart from the extensive bruising and the cuts on his face he would have been quite a looker; a prime piece of merchandise for someone like Jarvis.
As I watched him looking back at us with eyes that were wide with fear I also thought that I could sense a sadness in him, which was hardly surprising considering the life he was leading and the ordeal he had just come through. It made me extremely angry that anyone could do something like this to a kid.
'I suppose you're cops too, then?' the boy asked us, before either Helen or I could say anything. He said it in a manner that was half belligerent, but was probably more bluff than anything, as if he were trying to put up a tough exterior and make out he was more than just the scared kid that he appeared to be.
'Why do you say that? Have there already been some cops in here to talk to you?' Helen asked him.
'Duh, yeah! Two of 'em,' he replied. 'But I never told 'em nothin'. I didn't much feel like talkin'.'
Helen glanced across at me, with a rather puzzled expression on her face.
'Do you know what their names were?' I asked.
The boy simply shrugged and said, 'Ain't much good with names. All I can tell you is that one of 'em was a slimy wog lookin' dude. Anyhow, what's your names then?'
I reached into my jacket and pulled out my badge, holding it out for him to see, while Helen did the same.
'I'm Detective Cooper. This is Detective Wheeler,' I said to him. Looking at the name tag attached to the wall above his bed I saw that they had written the boy's name, Shane Leggatt, along with that of his Doctor, a Dr. Mason.
'You are the kid that Jimmy Taylor calls 'Legless', aren't you?' Helen asked.
'Could be.'
'And those bruises on your face?' she added. 'Were they put there by a guy named Jarvis?'
At the mention of that name the colour quite literally drained from the boy's face and he turned quickly away from us, preferring instead to look at the plain brick wall that could be seen through the window of his room.
'Shane,' Helen asked softly. 'Will you tell us what happened? We really need to know exactly what Jarvis did to you if we're going to be able to do anything about him. We don't want what has happened to you, and Christ-only-knows how many other kids, to happen to anyone else.'
For quite a while he said nothing. He just continued to stare out the window, biting his bottom lip and giving the occasional sniff, as if he were trying to fight back tears.
'Don't you cops know nothin'?' he finally said to us. 'You can't do anything about him. You can't touch him. He knows people. Important people! Or that's what he's always told us. If we ever talk we'd get . . .'
He broke off in mid-sentence, tentatively reaching up and touching a bruise on his cheek in what I figured was simply a subconscious reaction to where his thoughts were taking him.
'Shane, that's where you're wrong,' I said to him. 'He's not untouchable. He can be put away. . . and for a very long time. That's what we want to do, but we need some help to do it. We need your help, and Jimmy's help, and the help of anyone else who may have ever seen anything happen at Jarvis' place. How many boys have there been, just since you've been there, that have ended up looking like you do now. . . or maybe even worse . . .'
At that remark he snapped his head back in my direction and glared at me.
'Yeah Shane, we've got a pretty fair idea about most of the things that he's done,' Helen offered. 'We've just never been able to pin anything on him without having any concrete evidence, or anyone willing to verify what's happened. What we really need is a witness, you know . . . someone who has seen it all first hand. You don't want there to be another one do you? Some of those kids are even younger than you, aren't they?'
He looked from me to Helen and back again, then looked down at his hands, which were sitting in his lap. I could almost hear the cogs turning over in his head as he tried thinking through what we had said to him. Despite the brave face he was trying to put on, to me he was genuinely looking like a frightened little boy.
After a lengthy silence he eventually asked, 'Where is Jimmy at? And what did he say?'
'Jimmy is safe. He's with some friends of ours,' Helen answered. 'He said he saw Jarvis beat you, and that he'll testify if someone else does. He also said that he thinks some of the other boys will testify as well, once they know that at least a couple of you guys are willing to stand up to Jarvis.'
'So, what do you reckon then?'
'I dunno. Why should I believe you? Those other cops said I was in trouble too . . . you know, for doing what I've been doing for Jarvis.'
'Shane, whether you believe it or not we're actually on your side, and we really do need each other,' I answered. 'We have to get Jarvis off the streets as soon as we can, and the only way we can do that is with your help. It's the only way that we can make it safe for you and all of the other kids out there that Jarvis has already fucked over . . . not to mention stopping him from getting his hands on anyone else for his little operation.'
'And as for you getting in any trouble,' Helen added. 'Well, that's just bull shit! You help us out here and we can make sure that nothing like that happens. We can probably even help you get your life back on track so you won't ever have to resort to . . . to what you've been doing, again. '
He nodded briefly, but he still looked as scared as hell. He seemed to be thinking about what we had said to him and it seemed like an eternity before he turned back toward us and made as if to open his mouth to speak. He tried to say something, but nothing would come out. The scared little boy had taken over.
Walking around to stand beside him, while Helen remained standing at the end of his bed, I pulled a chair in closer and sat down. He turned his head and looked at me, with the fear now clearly showing in his eyes.
'Shane, will you help us? Will you tell us what happened?' I asked him gently.
He looked from me to Helen and then back again, then after a few moments more he eventually nodded.

The recent upsurge in transmission cases — last week 36 were listed up all in a day, but yesterday, the number just ballooned further up in a day's record, all 46 — may have caused tourism's re-opening somewhat. But, as Mayor Benjie keeps on assuring us, everything's under swift control. We're ready for the first 200 tourists from the Ilocos provinces, La Union and Pangasinan, ready to receive them as gladsome as Baguio hosts are.
In ceremonies made somber by the prevailing times — the pandemic remains a potent and vicious threat — Baguio formally launched the mechanics of what portends to be a unique, unprecedented tourism exchange program between neighboring localities, in what has been billed as a much-awaited event by other tourist-hungry locales. Bohol, Boracay are just on the wings, girding up, gearing up their own border-opening restrictions.
Make no mistake about it, it's all about being safe. Ours and theirs as contact becomes inevitable between visitor and visited. Thus, the frequent admonition resonating every now and then: Be safe, be sure, be responsible.
As echoed by Mayor Benjie in the launching program of Tourism Bubble, "today is our moment in time. As we launch the Tourism Bubble, a uniquely crafted tourist exchange program between Baguio and our brother Ilocanos and Pangasinenses, we do so with pride in our hearts. After all, we open up Baguio tourism to no less than compatriot Filipinos with whom we have had strong and enduring ancestral and filial roots for more than a hundred years now.
"We are opening up our city to welcome our northern brothers in Region One in an unprecedented but innovative way that makes possible safety and economic concerns to go hand in hand. But, and here let me be emphatic, reviving tourism will most assuredly be done safely, surely, and steadily.
"The goal is crystal clear: to make sure that no one — tourists and residents alike —gets into harm's way. Ito ang hamon sa ating kakayahan — and gawing ligtas ang sinoman sa panahon ng pagbubukas ng Baguio sa mga darating na bisita.
There is no doubt the imperative behind this out-of-the-box tourism program. In these continued times, even as we remain threatened by the pandemic, we must still do everything safely possible for our economy to get back on its feet, for tourism no less than to give us back the economic means of growing once more.
Definitely, today's tourism influx may not be from the usual numbers coming in by the hundreds of thousands. It may not be from the day-to-day rhapsodic expenditure of tourist money from which jobs and livelihood have been reliant on.
What is taking place is simply to make tourism bolster an economy that covid-19 has wrought unspeakable havoc to businesses, livelihood, jobs, family income, and tourism receipts that disappeared in just 4 months.
To our fellow provincial and city cousins, we are proud of our regional kinship with each other, and we will do our best in making your stay — brief or longer — worth your time, trust, and treasure. And in due time, there's no denying that we'd be more than glad for our Cordilleran brothers from across the mountain ranges to be part of the Ridge to Reef tourism splendorama.
There's no denying that for a time, brotherly ties in these parts have somewhat gotten strained probably as a result of poor communication handling, no doubt from those called upon for the interacting engagement. But, everything has somewhat loosened up, as it often does, when the faith with each other is simply that deep and enduring. No doubt, backdoor talks among concerned parties have had a way of setting aside pedestrian issues in favor of regional causes to foster.
Get going, Baguio! Safely, slowly, surely. Nothing less than this will get us all through this dark night.

Protest closing of thoroughfare
Jamshedpur : A group of students from Jamshedpur Cooperative College on Monday agitated against the ongoing construction work of the new international campus of XLRI and forcible halted the process in protest against closing of a thoroughfare by the B-school management.
Under the banner of Jamshedpur Cooperative College Bachao Sangharsh Samity students barged inside the under-construction new campus of the XLRI protesting closing of a way which was used by the students.
"We are here to protest the dominating attitude of XLRI management, Several students from Mango and Sakchi used to use a road near the college campus to reach their destination in short time.
However, XLRI management constructed boundary wall when the college was closed for festive season and due to this several students who came for classes after opening of the college faced problems," said Pawan Singh, one of the members agitating at the campus.
He alleged that administration is also supporting XLRI management by keeping silent with the B-school authorities closing the thoroughfare by constructing boundary wall.
"We want to pressurise the district administration to stop construction work and ensure that road is reopened by XLRI authorities while constructing their new campus.
We have decided to fight for our demands," said the student leader.
It may be mentioned that Jamshedpur Cooperative College is situated close to the B school. XLRI was granted 10 acres land by Tata Steel in 2008 for its new campus.
Recently XLRI had expressed concern over the security of the campus. XLRI has initiated steps to seal all the outward-facing entrances that might be a potential source of unauthorized infiltration into the campus.
XLRI administrator and financial controller Fr George Fernandes, said they are concerned campus from being used as outsiders and cause security threat to foreign students as part of the global management program.
"We have taken permission to build boundary wall in view of security threat as the road opens at Marine Drive and Jubilee Park at one end," he noted.
Jamshedpur Cooperative College principal R. K Das admitted that the road does not fall in their area but said that since it was used by their students for last several decades the management institute authorities should have taken them into confidence before closing it.Dhalbhum sub divisional magistrate Prem Ranjan has ordered for stalling of construction work.
Accordingly, XLRI submitted a letter to the Deputy Commissioner explaining all the facts and the reasons for closing all the outward-facing entrances.
Moreover there are roads on either side of the proposed wall leading to the Marine Drive. In view of the past
untoward instances and the likelihood of future unauthorized infiltration, XLRI has also intimated all the concerned district authorities regarding the urgent need for round-the clock campus security.
