I first knew Roy Vautin by phone contact (we both have Vautin forebears) and later personally met him at Wye River on a trip through Victoria. A relative, George Vautin, was a champion Australian Football player in Victoria in its early years and when I told Roy another relative Paul "Fatty" Vautin was a champion Rugby League footballer and Australian representative, he was delighted and said he could now really "skite" at the local club. A great chap and real gentleman. Evan Smith - Kippa-Ring, Qld.
