"There is no question that th coalitionists are well and truly i the majority now in the Queens ences at two State by-elections to be held next month. Asked about Dr Everingham's coalition commitment, Mr Bean-land said: "That has not yet been addressed. The party organisation has to address it." Mr Beanland said there was "a whole series of issues" to be resolved before agreement could be reached on restoring the coalition. These included the electoral boundaries redistribution and the cases of several former National Party ministers before the courts on Fitzgerald Inquiry-related charges.

have been acrimonious since the coalition government split before the 1983 election over the Liberals' insistence that a parliamentary public accounts committee be established. The Nationals were able to govern in their own right after the election because two Liberal MPs, Don Lane and Brian Austin, defected to their ranks. The Nationals won an outright majority in the 1986 election but were defeated by the ALP in 1989. One reason for Labor's success was the conspicuous disunity between the former coalition part ners. Since the last election, the Liberal Party organisation under Dr Everingham's leadership has been making increasingly conciliatory gestures to the Nationals.

The push for restoring conservative unity was given a major boost by the Liberals' disastrous performance in last month's Brisbane City Council elections, in which Mrs Sallyanne Atkinson was ousted as Lord Mayor by the ALP candidate, Mr Jim Soorley. Dr Everingham said the Liberals would no longer criticise the Nationals, and the parties would ensure a tight exchange of prefer mentary leader, Mr Denver Bcanland, said it was premature to declare such a commitment. Dr Everingham said conservative supporters in Queensland did not believe the anti-Labor cause was being served by continuing divisions between the Liberal and National parties. "They will go back to being in partnership together," he said. "If the non-Labor forces after the next State election have the numbers, there would be a coalition government.

There are no ifs' or 'buts' about that." Relations between the parties By GREG ROBERTS BRISBANE: There was no doubt that a coalition government would be formed in Queensland if the ALP lost the next election, the State president of the Liberal Party, Dr Bill Everingham, said yesterday. His statement is the first time that the Liberal Party organisation has declared its willingness to govern with the National Party since the Queensland coalition split in I983. However, in an indication that the party is deeply divided over the issue, the Liberals' parlia land Liberal Party and he ignores that at his peril," one source said The National Party's Queens VIDEO PRODUCTION An introductory, hands-on course for professionals and community organisers who want to produce corporate, educational or training videos.

By COLIN ALLISON The guttural mating roar of a red deer stag shattered the stillness of the morning at Cobbiry, couth-west of Sydney: "L'rgh, urgh uuurgh!" Deep in the annual breeding rut, the sleek stag eyed a potential harem of hinds through the paddock's high wire, then shook his handsome rack of antlers. Doctor Anthony English laughed.

"They're roaring day and night. I was jogging at 11.30 the other night and one let loose. Hope the neighbours don't mind." Doctor English, 47, a former dairy farm vet from Victoria's Gippsland, is the director of the University of Sydney's deer unit, which is making history at its Camden campus, where almost 300 fallow chital and rusa deer are kept beside the reds, Using New Zealand semen of the near-extinct Mesopotamian fallow deer to inseminate an Australian-born European fallow doe, the unit's biologists have succeeded in producing eight new hybrids that will be used to clone the endangered animal. The hybrids, five does and two bucks, born in late December, are bigger than the local fallow deer and are expected to be in demand by Australian deer farmers, who helped establish the unit in 1979. But Doctor English is looking beyond the new deer's commercial possibilities.

He chairs the South Pacific section of the United Nations Conservation of Nature Species' Survival Commission, and hopes the unit's experimentation with the Persian fallow will "help stop it dropping off the When the Shah of Iran was Children from Fiji Airfares Environmental activist, a writer and potter W) deposed by the Islamic Revolution in 1979, revolutionaries slaughtered the 30-odd Persian fallow in the palace grounds. The Khuzistan herd on the Persian Gulf and 100 in a royal breeding enclosure on the Caspian Sea were also wiped out because of the Shah's lifestyle, which embraced hunting and endangered species' conservation. Fortunately, the Shah had the foresight to send a small band to a German zoo, which has bred up stock and exported around 100. "Still, we'd be lucky if there were 200-300 left in the whole world," Doctor English said. "We see those derived from artificial breeding as a very important element in the survival of the endangered species.

It may well be that insemination keeps the genes going when animals in the wild are up against it." By controlled inbreeding after insemination it is possible to "remake" the original animal, but Doctor English has more advanced plans for his unit. "It's early days yet, but my aim is to hone artificial breeding technology to the extent that we can bring in some embryos of, say, endangered musk deer from Nepal, into Australia for cross-species transplantation," he said. "Can it be done? We don't know, but we intend to find out. The ramifications are enormous." With parents paying normal airfare to Fiji, a 4 year old flies for $40.
