Casey's flat on the 9th floor of the Dixon St. flats was an appropriate venue for a small (size of flat) gathering of trampers and their baggage to celebrate the conquering of Everest by Tensing and Hillary. The Extrav. Tensing and his brolly bearer were also present. A motion was passed to give Tensing a life membership in the V.U.C Tramping Club.

Everyone was celebrating Extrav. it seems. Don Brown, Jeff Stewart, and Con Bollinger (the originator of the Extrav interlude) all had parties. The Bollinger bash was especially memorable to the inmates.
