Well-Known Figure In S.A. Motor Industry ,
Mr. William Alfred Leopold Crowle, who died in Sydney on
Monday at the age of 67, was
one of the best known figures in the motor industry in South
Australia in the early part of the present century.
Born at Albury (NSW), Mr. Crowle came to Adelaide at an
early age and set up business as a bicycle mechanic in a shed
in Hyde street, city. Backed by the late Sir Langdon
Bonython, he became a successful car importer, forming the
firm of Eyes & Crowle.
Shortly after World War I he transferred to Sydney and
set up business as an engineer and importer under the name of W. A. Crowle Pty. Ltd.
In his early life Mr. Crowle worked his way to America and
learned the electrical trade as a "rouseabout" in the laboratory
of Thomas A. Edison. He helped to make the first storage batteries, the first phonograph, and the first telephone.
In 1945 he fulfilled a lifelong ambition by giving £16.000 to
establish a home at Ryde. NSW, for delinquent youths. The
home was named "Once Upon a Time." In the first two years
of its existence, the home re-habilitated about 64 p.c. of the
103 boys who passed through it.

Google came out against SOPA on Wednesday, Jan. 18 by including a link about SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and "censoring" their Google logo. Thought taking a screenshot of this would be a good historical decision.

This is what we got when we mixed a Yorkshire accent with a voice recognition search for 'dixonbaxi' on the iPad. Not for the faint hearted.
