The Electrode – Vol. 1. August, 1920 No. 1. – page 3

The construction of homes by the Company at the village site between Derwent Park Road and Bowen Road has advanced so far that a name is required for the settlement.

An appropriate title might be found in some old native name previously in the district, or such name might imply connection with the Zinc industry or indicate the beautiful view or the communal service provided or the activity of the E.Z. Co-operative Council which is so closely concerned with all the activities relating generally to employees.

The Company has decided to give every employee an opportunity to nominate a name and to award to the nominator of the name chosen a prize of £3/3/-, with a second prize of £2/2/-, and a third prize of £1/1/- for the nominators of the two next preferred names.

A box will be provided at the time office for the reception of nominations.  Employees who wish to complete must fill in the form enclosed in this issue, sign it, and deposit in the box provided at the time office at the Risdon works.

Nominations may be made until August 21st, and the General Manager will consider all nominations, and his decision will be final.

In the event of more than one nomination of the chosen name being received the prizes will be divided.
