Draw notes:
The official Australian Open site lists Decker's partner as Dorothy Linde.
The official Australian Open site lists McCamley's partner as Margaret O'Donnell.
The official site is not 100% correct. it fails to take into account the foreign seeding used. For example, #1 foreign seed Redick-Smith is turned into the #9 seed!
L Taylor=Helen Taylor
F Martin=Mary Martin
Mrs R Baker=Alison Baker
----------------------------------------------------
Summary:
Long won her second title at the age of 35. The South African ladies, Mesdames Wiplinger and Redick-Smith were the foreign contingent that year. They reached the final of the doubles but were disappointing in the singles.Wipplinger was defeated in an early round by teenager Mary Carter while Redick-Smith after barely beating Fay Muller (she survived 3 match points) lost to reigning Australian junior champion Jenny Staley 8-10 7-5 3-6. Staley the most improved player in Australia, tore through Mary Hawton in the semifinals.Long thrashed Nell Hopman 6-0 6-0 in the quarterfinals and was too solid and experienced for Mary Carter in the semifinals.
Staley was too nervous to do herself full justice in the final. And Long gave her no chance to recover her composure, denying her the unforced errors or easy winners which might have enabled her to get back into the match. Long was like a stern headmistress as she handed out a 6-3 6-4 lesson to a disconsolate Staley.
Watching the match in his army uniform was Staley's boyfriend, Lew Hoad, on leave from national service training. Lew, after his recent victories in the Davis Cup was a national hero. His presence, and the conjecture about his relationship with Staley were said to have contributed to her inability to produce her stylish best.

Althea finally wins for the first time over Mortimer after losing 4 consecutive times to the Brit. She served "a sizzling ace" to wrap it up and was so excited she jumped over the net at the end to hug her opponent. 12,500 watched the contest. It is Gibson's 7 th straight title and the 13th event she's won during her 1956 campaign.
In the semis 8,000 fans gave the American a difficult time, booing her at times as she made her debut on center court against her doubles partner. In the third set Gibson broke her shoulder strap. "The crowd roared. Miss Buxton rushed to Miss Gibson's side and escorted her off to the dressing room." Gibson came back and raced out to a 4-1 lead before Buxton's net rushing tactics made it a close match. As Anglea reached 4-5 Gibson tossed to her racquet to the ground in disgust from a combination of frustration with the crowd and Buxton's tough play. The last game reached deuce, but Althea won with a winning volley.

*A bit of mystery around two 2R doubles matches. were they defaults or unrecorded scores?
Mixed F: Pat Naud/Max Brown d Vosters/James Schnarr 6-3 8-6
The crowd of 2,700 roots for Margaret as she fights to make a match of it in the second set, but the crowd "cheers vigorously" for Althea when she receives the trophy. Blonde bombshell Fageros upsets Brough with stop and drop volleys. Louise fights to the end though, it takes 6 match points to put her down.

Gibson confirms her status as a top threat for Forest Hills, but the other big news goes realtively unnoticed. Wimbledon finalist Anglea Buxton injures her arm and will miss Forest Hills. What no one knows at the time is this injury basically ends her promising tennis career. The veteran Louise Brough was troubled all week by a bad service toss; she served numerous double faults. Match of the week was Hard-Blooomer. Darlene had 3 match points at 5-2 40-0, only to see the Brit hit an amazing series of shots. Hard closed out the match in the nick of time at 5-4 "and she literally crawled on her knees to shake hands with he ropponent!" (WT)

Mary Hawton was upset about being only seeded 7th when she was the title-holder and ranked #3 Australian woman in 1955. "The only player seeded above me who has beaten me this year is Mary Carter" she said. Her seeding meant she was matched against Shirley Fry and though disappointed she acknowledged "Miss Fry was far too good for me".
In the twice-interrupted (rain) singles final, Gibson was foot-faulted 21 times. After one call, she slammed a ball into the members' reserve, where it hit LTAV vice-president Mr T Evans, who was sitting just a few feet away from the Prime Minister. When Gibson apologies, Evans smiled and lifted his hat in acknowledgement. Some sections of the crowd booed the linesmen and yelled 'give her a go', requiring the umpire to appeal for silence.
