Of General Interest, Advocate, Melbourne, 17 September 1953, p 2, http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article175362405:

Rev. Fr. Syd Morey, of Mount Noorat, via Terang, Victoria, who was recently ordained in Rome, will arrive in Melbourne by the Stratheden on Sunday, 27 September. He is the eldest son of Mr. F. L. Morey and the late Mrs. Norah Morey, formerly of Chelsea, and now of St. Peter's parish, Toorak, and brother of the late Leo Morey, 7th Division, A.I.F. Father Morey's early education was received at the preparatory college of the Sisters of Mercy, Mornington, the Christian Brothers' College, St. Kilda, and St. Patrick's College, Sale. He entered Corpus Christi College, Werribee, in 1949, for the diocese of Ballarat, and in 1950 transferred to the Beda College, Rome, where he was ordained on Holy Saturday at the Basilica of the Twelve Apostles, by Archbishop Traglia, vice-regent to the Cardinal-Vicar of Rome.

Father Morey will celebrate Mass at St. Colman's, Balaclava, on Monday 28 September, and later in the week at Mount Noorat.
