Ballarat & Queens Anglican Grammar School first girls' rowing crew 1979 Two girls' rowing crews were noted in 1979 in The Ballarat Grammarian 1978-79. The first crew won the Ballarat regatta but was disqualified for not being affiliated to the V.W.R.A. The seconds girls' crew, the ninth boys' crew, and the tenth boys' crew were coached by senior oarsmen due to the shortage of coaches. The ninth crew was coached by M. Short, and the tenth crew was coached by P. Gray. The girls' seconds crew was coached by G. Forsyth and T. Jeffrey. T. Jeffrey was also Captain of Boats 1979. Prior to the commencement of term 1 a row-a-thon was conducted spanning one week and 200kms up the Murray and Darling Rivers. As a result enough money was raised to buy a racing shell (Boomalacka II) and a training shell (Beckworth III). The row-a-thon also provided perfect pre-season training.1979 appears to be the first year that a girls rowing crew was formed at B&QAGS. Jill Douglass wrote "1st Crew Rowing 1979 for the first time in the history of rowing at BQAGS and, for any Ballarat School - a girls' crew has competed in major regattas in Victoria. The crew Jane Harris (bow), Annabel Meek, Ruth Hobson, Jill Douglass (stroke) and Tanya Hunt (cox) trained for many weeks with the help and experience of Mr. A. A. Patterson. In the Ballarat Regatta on Lake Wendouree, on 10th March, the crew rowed in the Ladies' Novice four event and won. But disappointingly, they did not receive the trophies as the crew wasn't affiliated with the Victorian Women's Rowing Association. The crew also rowed at Scotch Mercantile on March 24th and though made it convincingly to the final, only managed to come third. The girls were looking forward to rowing, by invitation, in the Tenth's race in the Head of the Lake, but because some of the other schools weren't keen on them rowing against boys, they weren't able to compete. Next year, though, Mr. Patterson and Mr. Meyer hope to organise a Girls' Race with the other schools, which would be a major advance in the development of girls' rowing in Ballarat.Coloured unmounted photograph of a girls rowing crew on Lake Wendouree near the winning postrowing, hunt, douglass, meyer, patterson, meek, hobson, regatta, lake wendouree, ballarat grammar, 1979,

There were two distinct Chapman Staffordshire china companies. One is David Chapman & Sons of the Atlas Works, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire - founded 1889 and continued only until 1906 so cannot be the maker of the cup, saucer and plate with the Grammar crest. It is more likely to be from the other company, Chapmans Longton Ltd of Albert Works, Longton which was established in 1916 and continues through to modern times with their 'Standard' pottery mark amongst others. Godden says D. Chapman & Son continued until 1906 when it's name was changed to Atlas China Co Ltd. Prior to that there was a shift of name in 1904 to "Chapman & Sons (Stoke-on-Trent) Ltd. After 1906 Goddens says it has records of the Atlas pottery mark (man with globe on his back) being used until 1910 on tableware and then also on 'The Atlas Tile Works' of Vine Street, Hanley 1907-1920. There is no mention of the pottery mark being transferred to Grimwades / Winton. In a separate entry it lists 'Atlas' as being a pottery mark associated with Grimwades / Winton. When the Grimwades / Winton entry is cross referenced, however, only one mark for 'Atlas' is evident dating from 1934 to 1939 - and it is not the classic 'man with globe on his back'.
