Hi - Just found this old post of yours after Googling 'Halswell 100'. I only just found out about that race from an old taxi driver who drove me home from a bike shop. It turns out I ride on the roads they used for that race all the time. Anyway, the point of this message is to see if you could scan the other page (pages?) of the programme you posted here? I'd be keen to read more about the event. Cheers.
