Sir Robert Menzies and Arthur Calwell are shown as golfers, wearing golf outfits and carrying clubs. Sir Robert is about to tee off. Calwell is confronting him, shouting ‘TFX…TSR2…production line…when available…costs…drawing boards…prototype…how much…etc, etc, etc, etc……’. John Frith stands nearby with a sign saying Aust. Open Election and a Menzies vs Calwell scoreboard.
Wait until I’ve played my shot, Arthur!’
