AUSTRALIAN EXPRESS* - stories from and about Australia with
Roger Broadbent. This week: There’s one in Sydney, Melbourne,
Brisbane, Adelaide, Darwin, and Broome. You’ll also find one in many
other parts of the world. London and San Francisco for instance. All
these places are home to ‘China Town’ and in this week’s Australian
Express a food writer and author of a new book on the subject talks
about his love of Chinatowns, about their origins and how they have
changed over the years. Sadly there’s little love lost over the much
maligned Cane Toad the nation's most prolific and despised introduced
species. They poison pets and injure humans with their toxins and now
inhabit one fifth of this continent. Introduced to Queensland 70
years ago to combat the cane beetle Cane Toads are about to invade
Western Australia where the ‘Anti-Cane Toad Foundation’ is gathering
its forces to repel this slimy pest. And we find out what it’s like
to work in remote Aboriginal communities in the final of our
occasional series ‘Bush Work’.

Chris Del Mar is the Dean of the new Medical School at Bond
University in southern Queensland. Students will go straight into
medicine instead of doing a science degree first and will also be

treatment. How is this different from other medical schools in
Australia? [%]

HEALTH REPORT - with Dr. Norman Swan. This week: "Sexual
Function in Women". Is there such a thing as female androgen
deficiency syndrome? It’s the latest buzz and relates low sexual

male hormones in women, does it add up? [T;%]

Program two--Heaven on Earth". Throughout history the church has
inspired and probably paid for more music than any other

we believe God to be unchanging, religious music has been as subject
to fashion as any other sort of music. Andrew Ford considers these
changes, from mediaeval times to the present. [T;%]
