# Wallsend Racecourse

Wallsend Racecourse is a former racecourse near the suburb of Wallsend, New South Wales, Australia.

## The early years

The first Jockey Club meeting was held on Wednesday and Thursday, 26 and 27 December, 1868. The event was held at Ricklar's paddock, a site that where the ground proved unsuitable for racing.
The second site for Wallsend's racecourse (opposite today's Minmi Road "Racecourse Hotel") came into existence in 1880 when steeplechases were popular. From 1880 to 1925, or so, an active program of race days was pursued. Visitors from Newcastle often came to Wallsend by tram (after 1887) and then walked the mile or so (1.7 km) from the tram terminus in Wallsend to the racecourse beyond the corner of Macquarie Street and Minmi Road. The 1890s depression and The Great War were difficult periods for the turf club and the racegoers.
Note the "Christmas Races" on 2nd and 3rd January, 1871 in spite of the recent weather they are planned for the Maryland Racecourse as the Committee has decided to "soldier on".
The Wallsend Races were popular. For some race days three crowded trams brought punters from the suburbs with tram-stops along the line from Newcastle to Jesmond and onto Wallsend tram terminus. The committee of Wallsend Jockey Club became motivated by a plan for a spur line to Macquarie Street (near Co-op Colliery) to 'deliver' the punters near to the racecourse.

## The 20th century

The Club made a request to the Colonial government for a new branch line from Wallsend via Nelson and Macquarie Streets to the Racecourse. Tramways of Newcastle (page 20) notes that a one mile (1.6 km) "branch line was approved by the Government in 1916." The route would have "involved grades beyond the capacity of the steam motors!". Work did commence in 1916 and the Club contributed £1000 to an expenditure of £3,156. By August 1916 the Government was conscious of the prospect of limited usage of the line and likely cost blowouts if building proceeded. The spur tram-line was never completed!
Note the crowds in the 26 August 1903 race meeting, by 1930 the racing club was no longer viable. It held its last race meeting in 1930 and the land was sold the following year. The onset of the 1929 Great Depression was too much for the club following-on from The Great War, 1914-18, and the 1920s in which it endured a challenging post-war economic period. It seems that the difficulties that presented in 1930 were the 'last straw'. The decision was taken to sell the site, to cover the debts of the club, in March 1931 Other race clubs in the district; Boolaroo, Rutherford and Singleton, were struggling as well.

# 4OS2

4OS2 is the OS/2 analogue of 4NT and 4DOS by JP Software, Inc. JP Software discontinued 4OS2, TCMDOS2 and TCMD16, making version 3.0, 2.0, 2.0 the final version of these. The code for 4OS2 has been released, and is maintained, first by SciTech, and then by NetLabs.

## Overview

Early versions of 4OS2 run in the Windows NT OS/2 emulation, and it was this particular running that led JP Software to port 4OS2 to Microsoft Windows. 4NT, for example, still has the OS/2 CMD.EXE commands like EXTPROC and REXX support, while earlier versions had commands like DPATH and LIBPATH, for setting these variables in the same manner that PATH does.
The early 4OS2 packages came with both 16- and 32-bit versions, the former to run under OS/2 1.x including Windows NT OS/2. Eventually the 16-bit support was dropped.
JP Software have their final releases of these products at their download page.
There was a 4OS2 v4.0 as different programmers took up maintaining the release, but these have been since merged.
4OS2 has found more recent life at NetLabs.
It is included in ArcaOS.

# H. S. Wong

H. S. "Newsreel" Wong (1900 – March 9, 1981) was a Chinese newsreel photojournalist. He is most notable for Bloody Saturday, a photograph of a crying baby in Shanghai that he took during the Second Sino-Japanese War.
Wong was also known as Wang Haisheng (Chinese: 王海升) or Wang Xiaoting (Chinese: 王小亭). He owned a camera shop in Shanghai. For capturing moving images he used an Eyemo newsreel camera, and for still photography he used a Leica.

## Career

In the 1920s and 1930s, H. S. Wong worked in China and provided photographs and films for various newspapers and agencies, such as Hearst Metrotone News and Shanghai News. Wong's most famous photo, "Bloody Saturday" or "Shanghai Baby", was taken during the Battle of Shanghai in the Second Sino-Japanese War. It shows a baby sitting up and crying amid the bombed-out wreckage of Shanghai South Railway Station. Within a year of its publishing, the photo was seen by more than 136 million people. In 2010, Wong was honored as a pioneering Asian-American journalist by the Asian American Journalists Association.
Wong filmed more newsreels covering Japanese attacks in China, including the Battle of Xuzhou in May 1938 and aerial bombings in Guangzhou in June. At times, he placed himself in danger to get a photo; once was subjected to bombing and strafing by Japanese aircraft. After angering the Japanese by documenting the violence of their attacks, the Japanese government put a bounty of $50,000 on his head. In China, he operated under British protection, but continued death threats from Japanese nationalists drove him to leave Shanghai with his family and to relocate to Hong Kong.

## Later life and death

Wong retired to Taipei in the 1970s and died of diabetes at his home at the age of 81 on March 9, 1981.

# Walter Fifield Snyder

Walter Fifield Snyder (1912–1993) was an American scholar of ancient history.
Born in Northfield, New Jersey in 1912, Snyder graduated from Camden High School and earned an A.B. in Classics from Swarthmore College in 1932. He went on to earn his Ph.D. in Classics at Yale University in 1936 with a dissertation entitled "Chronological Studies in the History of the Roman Emperors" (under Michael Rostovtzeff). He then was a Fellow of the American Academy in Rome from 1936 to 1938. He first taught at Hunter College (part of the City University of New York) from 1940 to 1941, and then at the University of Richmond from 1941 to 1943. During World War II, he served as an officer in the US Naval Reserve. After training in the Japanese language and cryptography, he rose to the rank of Lieutenant Commander and served in the Pacific Theater with the Seventh Fleet. After the end of World War II, he returned to the University of Richmond where he earned tenure. He then joined the History Department at Clarion State College (now Clarion University) in 1967 as a full professor and taught there until his retirement in 1978.
Snyder's work focused on problems of chronology in Roman imperial history. He co-published a study of the papyrus from Dura-Europos known as the Feriale Duranum (with Robert O. Fink & Allan S. Hoey) with Yale University Press in 1940. In the same volume, he also published a study of Public Anniversaries in the Roman Empire. Additionally, he published an array of articles in leading journals on topics of historiography in Cassius Dio as well as on the Alexandrian Calendar. He was an esoteric (and extemporaneous) classroom lecturer who established the ancient history curriculum at Clarion University.
