MIRROR MOVING TO NEW ADELAIDE PARK ROAD PREMISES THE Capricorn Coast Mirror moves to a new office this weekend.

The new office is renovated premises on the corner of Adelaide Park Road and Cliff Street, Yeppoon.

Mirror owners John and Suzy Watson (with help from the Commonwealth Development Bank) have purchased the premises so that the entire newspaper operation can be conducted at one address.

The phone number remains unchanged (39 4244), but, from Monday, there will be two lines which means advertisers, contributors and readers should have less trouble contacting us.

While the new address is 3 Adelaide Park Road, the postal address is still P.O. Box 769, Yeppoon.

The move from 38 James Street to 3 Adelaide Park Road will be made on the weekend and the office will open on Monday at 9am (depending on how much sleep we get Sunday night).

Advertisers, contributors and readers are invited to call in from Monday, but please, bear with us for a few weeks while we sort out a few things.

We have not had time to completely renovate the building but major extensions

have been carried out in as short a time as possible.

The new premises will be remembered by older residents as the site of a former general store. The Mirror will occupy the house which used to be located at the rear of the store.

The house has been shifted away from boundary fences, raised and blocked in underneath to provide plenty of work space for the newspaper.

It is expected that the Mirror will be able to provide an even better service to advertisers and contributors because all work will done on the spot.

For more than two years, the Mirror staff have collected advertisements and news in normal office hours, then carried out the production work involved in creating a newspaper from 6pm to whenever.

Now in its 111th week of publication, the Capricorn Coast Mirror will, for the first time, have all of its equipment under one roof.

It will make a big difference ... for us at the Mirror, and for you. We look forward to your continued support.

We trust you will not have too much difficulty in locating us.

Fourucors o agree to inquiry report publicity

Rowe wants $25 000 Engineer to seek full restitution for legal costs

LIVINGSTONE Shire engine& Tony Rowe said this week he had paid "in the order of $25,000" in legal fees in connection with the recent inquiry ... and he wants full restitution.

He also wants to have documents relating to the inquiry debated in open council and made available to the public.

Local Government Minister Russ Hinze this week announced that a report on the inquiry "clearly shows that Mr Rowe is not guilty of a misconduct or neglect in relation to any of the complaints raised against him".

Mr Rowe said he was "extremely happy" with the result of the Commission of Inquiry which had cleared him of any neglect or misconduct in relation to the matters raised at the time of his suspension.

He wants to have the commission's report made public "as my barrister asked of the commission".

He said he had not seen the report but believed a copy would soon be sent to council.

He hoped the report would also make recommendations on who should pay his legal costs, because he had now been cleared of the allegations.

Mr Rowe said that most of the matters raised in the motion moved by Cr Mario .

Cresta and seconded by Cr Brian Dorey had been raised in the life of the previous council

"The commission's findings apparently have been similar," he said.

"In my opinion, the whole exercise will have been a waste of time and public money, unless the commission's findings are revealed to the public."

Mr Rowe said he would expect the total cost of the inquiry to have been well in excess of $100,000.

His own outlay to date had been "in the

CRESTA TO RESIGN? 'NO WAY'

COUNCILLOR Mario Cresta said this week he would not be resigning from council following release of a report exonerating shire engineer Tony Rowe.

Cr Cresta moved the motion which led to an inquiry being conducted into allegations made about Mr Rowe.

When asked on Wednesday night whether he would resign following the inquiry's .decision in favour of Mr Rowe, Cr Cresta said: "No way."

He asked why he should resign. When told that his motion had cost ratepayers possibly

$60,000 in legal expenses, Cr Cresta said he had not.

"The State Government brought on the expenses by ordering an inquiry," he said.

Cr Cresta said his motion had called for Mr Rowe's suspension while he answered 20 questions.

"At the end of 28 days we would have got some answers to the 20 questions," he said.

He said he would make no further comment on the Rowe inquiry until he had read the report which was being sent to council.

order of $25,000" and he said he "intends to recover it all".

The money was part of savings put aside for a new home, deferred dur to "council problems".

However, there could be a problem with having the report debated in open council and in having it made available to the public.

Livingstone Shire Council last week resolved that "all contentious issues" be dealt with "in committee".

The previous council also resolved that all matters relating to staff should be dealt with "in committee".

These two motions could be used to take debate behind closed doors.

When asked to comment on this, Mr Rowe said he would expect the report to be debated and then made available to the public, because of the "innuendo and controversy surrounding the inquiry".

FOOTNOTE: The Capricorn Coast Mirror believes a letter has been sent from council to the State Government ;asking for the government to pay both the council's and Mr Rowe's legal expenses. An answer is expected for the next council meeting.

A POLL of councillors late Wednesday afternoon failed to provide a clear cut decision as to whether the Rowe inquiry documents would be made public.

Nine councillors were contacted and the remaining four were unavailable.

Of the nine, four are in favour of the report being dealt with in open council and being made available to the public; two councillors were adopting a "wait and see" attitude; two felt they would like it open, but would have to see the report first; and one, shire chairman Cr Lindsay Hartwig, MLA, said it was "up to the council".

Cr Hartwig said making the report public would not worry him, and if council wants to make it public "so be it".

None of the councillors, including Cr Hartwig had seen the report when contacted.

Cr Landsberg said: "I'm not worrying about myslef. I've got nothing against the engineer and nothing to hide. I'd like this open to the public."

Cr McDonald also said the report should be open. "I voted for the inquiry because I though it would clear up the matter and get results," he said.

"I want this cleaned up once and for all, so this is it."

Cr Wildin said it should be definitely in the open. "The ratepayers have paid for this, so they should see the results," she said.

"It's the only chance we have to settle this without it being called a whitewash job."

Cr Cresta said: "As far as I'm concerned the report can be made public. That's for sure, irrespective of what's in it."

He said he had not seen the report and was aware he may not like what it says.

Cr Anderson said he would wait until he saw the full report, "and I don't want to comment until I've seen it".

Cr Dorey said he would wait until the monthly meeting and after he had read it. "I expect the ratepayers to be able to see the result, but I'm pretty open-minded," he said.

Cr Hinz said: "I feel it should be open to the public, but I might change my mind later ... $30,000 has been spent and perhaps the public should know what happened."

Cr Giorgi said her natural instinct would be to have it published, but queried whether the report would be under privilege.

Letter supports Mirror opinion support the

THIS letter is intended .to efforts your paper is making to inform ratepayers of the workings of our council which apparently has decided undemocratically to act secretly behind closed doors; and as you have reported, "a decision made by councillors who promised 'open government' if elected"!

Their statements and actions thus cannot be closely scrutinised and reported on by democratic press reporting.

Just as local government interpretations or particular issues are sometimes abused, so too will press reporting sometimes be abused.

But I fail to see how this justifies a decision by our council to deny such reporting to the ratepayers of Livingstone Shire who pay the bills amassed in the name of Local Government.

Ratepayers are able to form their own opinions and decide who will be their next representatives in council.

Your Mirror comment of September 21: "We feel this move behind closed doors should be rescinded immediately", is discussed and supported by numberless ratepayers, and there is no guarantee that Cr Dorey's suggestion, that contentious issuesbe dealt with in committee, will make council run any better, more efficiently or more honestly.

Direct press reportings are indispensable for that to occur.

So-called "gutter-level" journalism might well indicate a comparable level of council procedures. The Mirror of September 6 reported Cr Giorgi as having "... said this week she 'wept with fury at the (council) table the other day"; and further, "I was pipped at the post by Mr Weychardt's announcement of his resignation ... I was going to ask for it anyway," Cr Giorgi said".

Is it any wonder that our council is likened to a circus? Does it consider the reporting of such immature apparently egotistical facesaving outbursts to be at the gutter level?

Chairman Cr Hartwig, MLA, needs to convince his councillors to agree with, and also adopt and restate for themselves, his statement reported on September 21: "I welcome the press to meetings and think meetings should be open."

Yet just two sentences previously, he is reported to have suggested "... council do the same thing as electricity boards and have closed meetings with the chairman making statements after."

To even make such a suggestion, appears to negate any desire to "welcome the press to meetings".

As ratepayers, we can now begin to "sort out the sheep from the goats". There appears to be little chance of a unified council composed of its present members.

At the risk of being considered presumptuous, it is suggested that persons engaged in property development or real estate sales, should automatically be prohibited from standing as a candidate for any local government office, either in our local area, or elsewhere.

A large percentage of hassles, perks and favouritism could this be obviated, and more attention focussed on the needs of ratepayers and improvement of the shires.

— K M Moore, Yeppoon.

This manoeuvre will effectively block public and press monitoring of decisions which affect all of us.

This is totally unacceptable and hopefully the ratepayers and residents will make this known by telephoning and writing letters t, all the councillors.

I would like to commend Cr Barbara Wildin for her vote of dissent on this issue.

Cr Wildin has consistently demonstrated a rare integrity in the jaded world of politics and a commitment to open, publically accountable government.

— Jack Ingram, MS 142, Woodbury Road, Cooberrie.

Congratulations toCONGRATULATIONS Cr Wildin to John Watson for an excellent article on this contentious issue.

Congratulations to Cr Barbara Wildin on standing up for the rights of the citizens of Livingstone Shire. You don't only have courage, but above all you are the only, councillor who is prepared to stand up for the people who elected this council into office.

Dear councillors, didn't someone teach you not to fiddle behind the curtains in the house into which you have been invited?

It is amazing how people keen to get into political office, be it local, state or federal, stoop to anything, false promises, baby kissing, licking boots, etc, to get into office and once there, everything is forgotten.

You then tell us what to do and expect t,, be treated like little gods, instead of our representatives, who are fully responsible and accountable to us, the electors.

When you fiddle behind closed doors, how can we, the people who pay you, your employers, evaluate you, our representatives?

How do we know if you are working for us as you promised during the election campaign and not against us?

How can we fairly judge who to retain and who to replace at the next election?

Why, oh why do many politicians kick the people they licked before?

When you think of it, who are really responsible for this?

It is us, the general public, the electors, who have accepted this situation because of apathy and indifference. She'll be right mate!

Until we revolt and assert our rights as taxpayers, ratepayers and electors, this situation will continue.

Remember someone once said: "We deserve the government we have".

Tanby Road construction now underway WORK worth more than $368,000 has started on Tanby Road between Coolsetti Avenue and McBean Street and is expected to be finished by the end of the year.

The work is a combined Main Roads Department and Livingstone Shire Council project aimed at stopping the dust problem and improving the access from the new main roads by-pass.

The MRD's scheme is estimated to cost $248,169 and will cover 660 metres of seven metre-wide bitumen, providing two throughtraffic lanes.

Council has set aside $120,000 in this year's programme toward constructing a parking lane, kerb and channel and stormwater drainage along sections of Tanby Road.

The Department of Industrial Development is expected to start work on its estate next year, which includes a road leading onto Tanby Road.

The road will be curbed, channelled and bitumened.

Lower cost for sewer scheme?

SHIRE chairman Cr Lindsay Hartwig, MLA, said he had attended a meeting in Brisbane on Wednesday which could lower individual connection costs for the Emu Park sewerage scheme.

Attending the meeting were Cr Hartwig and shire water engineer Pat Murphy, together with Local Government Minister Russ Hinze, Local Government director Harold Jacobs and officers from the Department of Local Government.

Cr Hartwig said a "means may have been found" to get a full subsidy on the Emu Park sewerage scheme.

It is estimated that the costs per connection for stage one of the scheme would be about $700 but costs overall for the scheme appear to be about $550 per connection.

Cr Hartwig said he would report details of the meeting to council.

Another $10,000 A CAPRICORN Coast newsagency has sold its sixth $10,000 'scratch it' ticket ... less than two weeks after the last was won.

Yeppoon Newsagency and Sun 'n' Fun owner John Murphy said the ticket was sold on Monday about 1.30pm to a resident in the Lammermoor area.

He said their name wasn't for publication but they were locals.

Less than two weeks before, Yeppoon girl Karlene McDonald won $10,000 before going to work one morning.

Mr Murphy said both wins were out of a different series of tickets and another series started on Tuesday.

Charity market handing over 2 vehicles worth $45,000 today YEPPOON Charity Market patrons are invited to see vehicles worth more than $45,000 on display on Saturday morning ... vehicles paid for with their support.

The vehicles are a $44,000 Ford F100 ambulance and a replacement vehicle for the Capricorn Coast Blue Nursing Service.

The 4 wheel drive ambulance is equipped to handle road accidents, multiple stretcher cases transferred to Rockhampton hospitals and off-road accidents.

It carries rescue gear for accidents and is equipped with the "jaws of life" for cutting people out of wreckage.

Half the money for it was raised over 12 months from market stall-holders fees and the other $22,000 is a government subsidy.

The Blue Nurses replacement car will cost the charity market $1000 with the trade-in of the old one.

Charity market treasurer Bruce Barnett said they had over-budgeted for the replacement, setting aside $3000, so approached the Blue Nurses about the $2000 excess.

"They said the running costs for each car was about $1000 so we will pay two years running costs for the car with the excess money," Mr Barnett said.

Both vehicles will be handed over at 9am but will be on display earlier with the ambulance's equipment spread out so patrons can see what they have helped pay for.

The vehicles will be handed over by market founder Jim Stevens who started it as a Rotary project in 1976.

And the market committee is asking people to see the handover and see what they've bought.

"We had signs up last week telling stallholders and supporters when the handover would be, so we hope to have a big crowd," Mr Barnett said.

Public hearings LEADER of the National Party in the Senate, Senator Stan Collard, has advised that the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Expenditure inquiring into Telecom zonal and charging policies in rural and remote areas would hold public hearings in Rockhampton on Tuesday, October 1.

The hearings would be conducted at the Rockhampton City Council Chambers after 1.30pm.

Senator Collard said constituents had contacted him regarding the date and time of the hearings because there had been some confusion over the time the committee would actually be in Rockhampton.

"Many groups from the Central Queensland area had already made written submissions to the committee and had arranged to appear before the committee while it is in Rockhampton."

Senator Collard suggested that interested persons wanting to appear before the committee would be well advised to make an appointment and could do so by contacting his office, 27 2366.

The hearings are not a public meeting and, as such, appointments were recommended to ensure your case was heard, he said.

Monument plan A MONUMENT in memory of Jim Searles, killed earlier this year in an ultra-light accident, will be erected the Bluff by Capricornia Sky Riders.

Permissio for the monument was given at the September Livingstone Shire Council meeting.

The sky riders propose that the monument will be similar to the direction indicator at Wreck Point, with the addition of a bronze plaque on the side.

It will be built of marble and concrete and when finished will stand about 1.3 metres high.

The club wanted to undertake the project as a tribute to the man and what he stood for.

Council approved the monument be built and will maintain it, subject to a club representative contacting the shire engineer to discuss specific contruction details.

CLASSES START TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8 — Inquiries: 39 3549

Rowe inquiry announcement THIS is the full text of the announcement exonerating Livingstone Shire engineer Tony Rowe which was issued this week by Local Government Minister Russ Hinze.

THE Local Government Minister, Mr Hinze, said today (September 23) Cabinet had endorsed the recommendation of an inquiry he had established in June following the (Livingstone Shire) Council's decision to suspend Mr Rowe by a vote of 7 to 6 with both the chairman and the deputy chairman voting in the negative.

The inquiry was undertaken by a retired District Court Judge and barrister, Mr J T Gibney, and the former assistant director of Engineering and Technical Services in the Local Government Department, Mr J D Turnbull.

"The concil will be provided with a copy of the report which clearly shows that Mr Rowe is not guilty of a misconduct or neglect in relation to any of the complaints raised against him," Mr Hinze said.

Mr Hinze said he deeply regretted, for the sake of Livingstone Shire, the events leading up to and surrounding the suspension of Mr Rowe.

"I would hope that sound commonsense will now prevail and that the shire council and Mr Rowe can work together for the good of people and the shire," he said.

"Therefore I am confident that if the council and staff work together as a team, Livingstone Shire can work very effectively."

It's very bulk y...

A "very bulky document" was handed to Livingstone Shire Council this week, clearing shire engineer Tony Rowe of any allegations of improprietary.

But it is now up to the council whether or not to make it a public document.

A precis of the document was handed to Cabinet on Monday by Local Government Minister Russ Hinze, where it was ratified.

Press secretary to the Minister, Russell Grenning, said the document was "very bulky" and it was now up to Livingstone Shire Council chairman Cr Lindsay Hartwig, MLA, to decide what to do with it.

"The most important thing however, is that Tony Rowe has been cleared of all allegations of impropriety, which have been absolutely and plainly dismissed as untrue," Mr Grenning said.

`Fresh start' call SHIRE chairman Cr Lindsay Hartwig, MLA, this week called for a "fresh start" for council, following the exoneration of engineer Tony Rowe.

He said the inquiry was now "behind us" and it was time to get on with the job. Council had been given a mandate for three years and it could only get things moving if the councillors and staff worked together.

If this didn't happen, council was "headed for destruction over something that never even happened in the life of this council".

"It's all in the past; let's now start to move ahead," he said.

Senator Collard NP guest speaker

0 Senator Collard National Party Senate Leader, Senator Stan Collard will be the guest speaker at the next meeting of the Yeppoon Branch of the National Party. The meeting is to be held on Friday, October 4 at the CWA Hall starting at 7.30pm.

Yeppoon branch chairman Alan Stevenson initially asked the Rockhampton-based Senator to address the meeting in his capaciiy as Shadow Minister for Veterans' Affairs.

However, in the recent opposition frontbench reshuffle, Senator Collard had been appointed as Shadow Minister for Arts, Heritage and Environment. Despite this change Mr Stevenson said Senator Collard was still willing to discuss matters pertaining to his previous shadow portfolio.

Mr Stevenson said that while Senator Collard was responsible for veterans' matters for the opposition, many changes had occurred in' the legislation and veterans were cautious as to how these changes would affect them. This meeting will give veterans the opportunity to voice their concernts. The changes introduced in the May mini-budget and those proposed in the draft Veterans' Entitlements Bill had put some veterans in a quandry as to the effect this would have on their benefits.

Although Senator Collard was no longer responsible for the veterans' portfolio, Mr Stevenson said Senator Collard had retained an interest in the field and was keen to ensure our veterans would not be unduly disadvantaged.

Apart from veterans' matters, Senator Collard would speak on his new portfolio of Arts, Heritage and Environment and other matters of interest in the Federal sphere.

Water, water everywhere...and it's available in Coast restaurants

$161"

LIVINGSTONE Shire Council has suggested that water jugs be placed on restaurant tables ... but most Coast restaurant owners said this week they usually did if their customers asked. When council was discussing food problems last week, chairman Cr Lindsay Hartwig, MLA, said water wasn't supplied on restaurant tables in the area.

"Other places in the world have it; and in a hot place like this so should we," Cr Hartwig said.

But restaurant owners said they usually gave people jugs of water if they asked for them.

Fisherman's Beach Restaurant owner Bev Laundry said she had been in the restaurant business for 12 years and had always given a jug of water if customers asked for it.

"We don't usually put cold water on the tables because there isn't much room with the salt and pepper and ashtray and glasses, and if we did, the condensation would wet the table," Mrs Laundry said.

Sunflower Patch owner Barry Cross said he didn't think he would be putting out water because the custom was an American idea.

"I've been all over the world — to Europe and the United States — and jugs of water are only found in American-owned hotels," Mr Cross said.

"But if people ask for it, we'll always give them water."

Palms owner Hazel Morris also puts out water jugs for any customer who wants it.

"Quite a few poeple ask for water and keep a special bottle in the fridge for them, but if we left the jugs out, kiddies would play in it," she said.

Both Lantern Restaurant manager Marea Lawlor and Drovers Rest owner Marcia Davis bring out water if customers ask for it.

"We don't do it as a rule, because it's only the Americans whO ask for it, but we always

Monday to Saturday Dinner

bring out water if someone asks," Mrs Lawlor said.

Mrs Davis said if people didn't have drinks, she brought out jugs of water from cold storage and also if people requested them.

At council's meeting, councillors saw problems with the jugs of water on the table.

Cr Ron Landsberg asked how jugs of water could be pUt on tables when the water was stained brown.

Health surveyor Stephen Kent suggested that when the yearly registration notices were sent out the chairman could attach a few words on the bottom.

And Cr Hartwig nodded his approval to the suggestion.

Garbage report LVINGSTONE Shire Council will investigate ways to dispose of refuse on Great Keppel Island before the disposal becomes a problem.

A report to council from health surveyors said refuse disposal on the island was becoming a health problem.

The report said that with increasing quantities of refuse from increasing numbers of tourists, land suitable for island sanitary purposes would eventually be used up.

Discussion with the resort manager resulted in estimations of a dumping life on the island of two to five years.

Removal of refuse from the island would pose problems with storage, compaction and barge transfers.

The report recommended that council seek information from shires which had island developments and from several waste disposal companies for information.

The recommendation was moved by Cr Jim Anderson, 'seconded by Cr Barbara Wildin and passed without debate.

fairly regular basis and attended family events such as weddings. The Murphys also call in on the Frisbys when they visit Brisbane ... keeping the family links intact.

FOOTNOTE: Years ago, in Sydney, when people wanted a "known" plaCe to meet, they used to say "meet me under the Central Railway clock". An ex-Victorian now living on the Coast said this week that when she came to Queensland for the first time to visit her father he told her to meet him at Curran's Corner ... "and I knew just where he meant," she said.

different daily newspapers on sale from every Australian State.

That means anyone holidaying in Brisbane who wants to catch up on the news at home can drop into Curran's and find their favourite newspaper.

That's quite an achievement for the newsagency on the corner of Adelaide and Edward Streets ... but the best is yet to come.

Overseas visitors can also catch up on the news back home ... and, usually, their "local" newspaper is no more than two days old.

Mr Frisby said he stocked newspapers from New York, London, New Guinea, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, France and Germany. In addition, he stocks Australianproduced editions of newspapers from Spain, Italy and Greece.

Americans can also pick up the Los Angeles Times just to keep in touch.

The overseas editions aien't cheap ... Mr Frisby said the Sunday edition of the New York Times (The Sunday Times) costs $25.

But it's as thick as a Sydney telephone directory. He only orders in one copy a week and is never stuck with it ... "there's always someone wanting ideas about advertising who buys it," he said.

The Londoners probably have the widest choice with five different newspapers covering a variety of tastes from the News of the World to the Economist.

The newsagency began stocking its wide range of newspapers by chance ... Mr Frisby said he heard that the Canberra Hotel in Brisbane did not want to stock the Queensland regional daily newspapers anymore because of the trouble involved.

"I wrote to the various papers and asked if they would allow me to stock them," Mr Frisby said. "The papers agreed and that was the start."

Mr Frisby has made his name with newspapers but says their sales only account for about half his business souvenirs make up the other half.

Like most people involved with newspapers, Mr Frisby spends his holidays visiting other people involved in the industry.

He spent part of Tuesday with John Murphy of Yeppoon News and Sun 'n' Fun. But it wasn't a chance meeting ... they went to school together in Sydney and have even more than that in common.

Both Vince Frisby and John Murphy are the second generations of three generations of their families to be newsagency owners.

Vince's -parents and John's parents each had newsagencies and were firm friends.

They were the first generations in the business.

Their children, among them Vince and John, went to school together. And their sons also went to school together and also work in the newsagency business.

John Murphy said it was Vince's father, George, who convinced him to go out on his own and buy his own newsagency.

"George had a newsagency in Hornsby (Sydney) and my parents had one at Strawberry Hills (near Redfern in Sydney)," Mr Murphy said.

"He an Vince bought Curran's Souvenir Corner 33 years ago. He convinced me I should buy my own newsagency and I went out on my own at Mitchelton (Brisbane)."

That was 24 years ago. The Murphy family came to Yeppoon 17 years ago this month when they bought Yeppoon News.

• While in Brisbane, the Frisby sons and the Murphy sons went to school together ... and now work in their parents' newsagencies.

Yeppoon Town Hall Monday, 7.30pm

FIVE prizes were handed to talented Capricorn Coast children on Saturday afternoon at the Mill Gallery, Farnborough Road by Luii Nuzzolese on behalf of the Florentine Progressive Art Movement.

Coast children were showing their talents at drawing, painting and leatherwork in the Mill Gallery's second children art exhibition.

Emu Park State School received a 'commended' which was accepted by Matthew White on behalf, of his school friends; aged six and seven. Aaron Trevis was not present to receive his 'commended'.

Highly commended certificates went to Ian McDonald of Power Street, Yeppoon and Rebecca Serin of Lpmmermoor.

Ian Chan took out first prize, a voucher donated by the Florentine Progressive Art Movement, to buy materials, went to Ian Chan.

The judges, Luigi Nuzzolese, Frances Paterson and Amanda Wishart, had difficulty choosing between the winning works.

"The quality is wonderful and it has been a pleasure judging," Mr Nuzzolese said.

"I don't believe in one judge, it is better to have cross-judging. Most of the time you judge influenced by your own personality.

"The certificates and voucher are encouragement awards," he said.

Mr Nuzzolese said it was hard to choose between the 10 works that the judges had found to show technical and artistic feeling as well as co-ordination.

Besides the winners, the other children are: Shaun Dungey; Michael Wildin, K Neal, Simon Burgess and Michelle Gurnier.

Mr Nuzzolese closed the presentations by telling the junior artists to keep up the good work. He thanked Dale Childs for having the children's art exhibition at the Mill Gallery. o o o ST JAMES Anglican Spring Fair is on October 5 in Yeppoon Town Hall and starts • at 2pm.

YOU know, with all the things in the media at the moment about the Bi-centennial committee I wondered about all that money.

I know ,the historical society knows about the `Kanaka Track' across Yeppoon's hills, but how many other Coast people do?

Australia is multi-cultural and has been since it was first discovered by Cook.

Besides the English, Irish, Scots, Chinese, Germans, French, Spanish and whoever I . have forgotten, there are also the South Sea Islanders. Here on the Coast they helped lioneer the area and a lot of them stayed.

••-•-.13ut, unfortunately, people forget. Perhaps the Kanaka track over the hills to the sugar mill could have been a 'project' for the bicentenary. I'm not against the things that have been okayed by the Australian committee, but, perhaps they have forgotten that Australia wouldn't be what it is now without some of our early, forgotten settlers.

It wasn't popular to remember the 'blackbirding' because it was distasteful, just like the Aborigines on Keppel.

Anyway, it was just a thought.

This is the first year the women have been in the competition, because last year; Yeppoon Indoor Cricket Centre wasn't finished in time for the start of the season.

The women will play four games today, Saturday, and two games tomorrow for a chance to compete in the State finals next weekend.

Team member Joy Newmann said all the women had gone into the competition only for the experience

Yeppoon bowls '

JOAN BEASLEY and Betty Pettit scored a convincing win over Emerald Bowls Club's combination of Margaret Love and Audrey Heath to take out the pairs 24-16 in the ESANDA Bowls Carnival.

The Yeppoon Bowls Club team led from the start and picked up a five on the ninth to give them a handy lead. The Emerald pair fought • back to be down 16-18 but Yeppoon went on to win 24-16.

Del Roos and Elsie Hinton teamed with Joan and Betty to play the final of the fours against Athelstane team Cath Thompson, Doreen Leslie, Carmel Beilenberg and Mavis Turner.

Athelstane proved too strong but they had a few anxious moments during the game. The scores were level nine all on eight, and 12 all on the 14th. Then Athelstane got their winning break, scoring a four and two on successive ends.

The carnival was a marathon for Betty Pettit who played five successive days, sending down over 600 balls.

It was all day mixed bowls on Sunday for the Savage Shield, an annual round-robin event between Wowan, Mt Morgan clubs Dee and Welfare, and Yeppoon.

Once again Dee took home the shield. The final result showed them clear cut winners with 35 plus 103, Yeppoon second on 26 plus 15, followed by Wowan 13 minus 41 and Welfare 4 minus 77.

In addition to winning the shield Dee teams scored the winner and runners-up for the day.

D Hoath,. L Cooper, N Jordan and Ken Ingram ,took out the major prize with M Reinecker, L Cross, N Ingram and Abbe Rowe the runnersup.

Dell Hinton donated towels to be raffled on the day for the Blue Nursing Service and this raised $80.

The club supplied trophies on Saturday for a roll up that was good considering the number of big days that Yeppoon Bowls Club has had lately. Winners were Roy Caine, Alf Schofield and Norm Myler.

The end of the bowling year is close and the only big day coming up is president's day on Sunday, October 13. Invitations have gone out and the book is open for nominations.

Yeppoon golf STELLA HASKINS won Yeppoon Golf.

Club's Wednesday club stableford with 40 points and the first nine nett with 301 2.

Joan Burrowes came in next with 36 points with Hazel Fry winning the second nine with 301/2. Nancy Montgomery won the two pinshots and Marge Williams the proshot.

Gay Williams, John Cahill and Wal Bartley were equal third in the men's stableford with 42 points. Peter Marwedel and Ossie McCurtayne were next with 40 points. First nine nett: Lionel Taylor 26; Ray Hansen and Alan Cole 28; J Cahill and Phil Locker 281/2. Second nine: Gav Williams 30'2; Bruce Slattery 32; W Bartley and P Locker 321/2. W Bartley and N Cooper won the pinshots and the proshot went to A Jarvis.

The veterans played a stroke over 12 holes for members and associates.

Phoebe Harris and May McGlashan were the associates' winners with 45 and the pinshot went to Phyllis Mann.

Jack Stratford won the members' with 38 and was followed by Arthur Irons with 39 (he also won the pinshot).

More veterans are invited to play on Fridays over the 12 holes.

The associates played a 4bbb stroke on Tuesday with Althea Vaughan and Anne Barrow the winners with 66 nett. Next best were Norma Channells and Gwen Sherrington with 67 and Shirley Kruger and Gladys Scharf, 70 nett. Mary Quinn won the beginners game.

Joyce Keyes won the silver pinshot, Althea Vaughan the bronze and captain Moira Potts won the proshot.

Jack Stratford's pat-on-the-back this week goes to a number of players: club president Bob Hancock for winning the B grade champion of Yeppoon Open; Tony Shields for the C grade championship; Lionel Taylor for his wins at Mt Morgan and Moura in C grade; and a 'special pat' to Lorraine McCamley for her great effort in taking Nancy Montgomery and Connie Noyes to the 15th hole in the match play, on her own.

"We've shocked ourselves by being chosen to play in Brisbane, and our biggest supporters have been the men's team, which got knocked out earlier in the season," Mrs Newmann said.

The team will play six hours of cricket on Saturday, with four games each lasting and hour-and-a-half, with half-an-hour break in between each one.

And for this trip the women have raised $2816.32 to cover air fares, accommodation and game fees. They've done this through a wacky western night, a 500s night, disco, raffles, two luncheons, a garage sale and a giggle and gossip.

Kay Murray from Yeppoon Book Exchange and Gifts also donated 12 t-shirts for the players.

The team is Margaret Carte (captain), Lesley Nicol, Kathy Harding, Laverne Symons, Laurelie McDonald, Liz Newbery, Robyn Battersby, Kris Kussrow, Rhonda Horstman, Wendy Hudson and Joy Newmann.

CapCoast Rugby ANNUAL DINNER

Bennett, at half time and things didn't look good for them.

Barcaldine scored again early in the second half and with 25 minutes to go with the score reading 12-3, Coast was in trouble.

CapCoast hit back and posted a try after a good backline movement. The forwards kept on the pressure with Ian Hutton and Wayne Doron winning and setting up good ball for the backs to use.

With seven minutes left, hooker Paul Childs won a scrum close to the line. Halfback Dave Ruck darted through a gap to score, he added the conversion and the final score was 13-12.

Mark Aroa, Bill Hayes and Mark Boyd had

strong games with youngsters David Ogg and Paul Caffery giving nothing away on the wings.

The forwards put up a good second half performance and captain Dave Ruck said credit must go to every one of them.

The Coast players were entertained throughout the weekend and the spokesman said relations between the two clubs are stronger than ever.

c9ctige gitt Tke bark tie Wilma RENOVATING premises is an expensive business ... just ask Suzy. So far, she's down the drain for two $10 Casket tickets because of bets she made with builder Jim McDonald. The first concerned a window and was nothing out of the hat (except she had to admit she was wrong; and that was a first) but the second was a bottler. Suzy asked Jim how he was going to lower the Mirror's new premises (on the corner of Adelaide Park Road and Cliff Street, Yeppoon) after Norm James had raised them to allow the place to be blocked in. Jim made a smarty remark about "It's all done with Mirrors", then told Suzy, Norm James (he was the one who lifted it) was going to use ice. Always looking for something topical to retort with and knowing the Coast is part of the Central Queensland beef region, Suzy replied "bull!". Jim's response was "betcha $10" and the bet was on. The following day, Norm James turned up with umpteen block of ice, put them on the concrete blocks, then pulled out the "1" beams and railways tracks holding up the place. The house sunk slowly into the wet ... taking Suzy's $10 with it!!! o ❑ o FREE idea for anyone hoping to attract more Coast visitors ... why not make use of the natural attractions available? Such as? Well, what about the Rainbow Lorrikeets? Malcolm Keene says anyone wanting to attract the birds can do so with a garbage tin lid, a length of rope, a tree branch and some bird food (I think it's bread and honey). All you do is load the feed onto the garbage tin lid, tie one end of the rope to a handle across the inverted lid, throw the other end of the rope over a tree branch and voila ... the birds eat the feed because it's up in the trees where they feel safe. Each day you lower the lid closer to the ground until, finally, the birds trust you and will eat off the ground and will arrive each day for a free feed (just like some friends of mine do). Once you have the birds' trust they will start to eat out of your hand and so on, and, before you know it, you have a bird sanctuary you can advertise. Why did Malcolm suddenly offer this idea? A visitor was chatting to him recently and remarked that it would be so easy to set up a Currumbin-type sanctuary here with so many birds around.

OK, I know some places already attract the birds ... but it's just an idea for everyone. But hurry, garbage tin lids are becoming rare on the Coast and it will be pretty hard to hoist an inverted wheelie bin into a tree!!!

BILL Thomson lavished praise on —v former councillor Maurie Webb on Friday night during the Yeppoon Swans' presentation party. He remarked that Yeppoon needed a man like Maurie Webb in council ... Maurie was one bloke any sports club could go to if it had a problem and know that if anything could be done, Maurie would fix it. His remarks were well received by the big crowd ... the tribute was followed by a joke. Bill reckons Maurie has been spending a lot of time lately going around door-to-door thanking the people who didn't vote for him!!! o o o AND now for this week's Swansong very pleasing to see the many Aussie Rules players who, when presented with a trophy, confidently took the microphone and made excellent speeches. It's so irritating to see Australian sportstars mumble and bumble when interviewed on television yet, here on the Coast we have talented speakers who can thank sponsors, clubinates, club officals and `supporters ... with a minimum of fuss. j
