WHEN KATIE WRITES A LETTER SHE CERTAINLY AIMS HIGH! YEPPOON brownie Katie Towle had a bright idea to write to the Queen and was rewarded with a reply from the Queen's Lady-in-waiting, Susan Hussey.

Katie, a member of the first Yeppoon Brownie Pack, in order to get her collectors badge decided she would collect postcards.

In November last year 10 year-old Katie wrote to the Queen enclosing insignia of the Yeppoon, Central Queensland and Australian brownie emblems.

An almost immediate reply was airmailed to Katie. It was dated December 9.

The letter, written on Buckingham Palace stationery, was from the Queen's Lady-inwaiting who explained why the Queen hadn't personally replied.

"I regret it is not possible to do as you ask, because of Her Majesty's rules in these matters... I feel sure you will understand the reason for these rules and that it would be most unfair to make any exception to them," Susan Hussey wrote.

However Katie was assured the Queen had received the letter and was 'interested to hear' from her.

In her quest to collect 50 postcards, which would entitle her to the emblem, Katie has received cards from Denmark, America New Zealand and all the Australian States except Western Australia.

Katie also befriended Ted Upton, the leader of the Mawson Antartic expedition.

Just after Christmas Katie received a card from the South Pole which had a 'first issue' stamp on the front.

Katie has so far collected about 25 cards for the emblem. She doesn't know who she'll write to next . but it could be Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke.

G PACK SLAUGHTER!

MARAUDING dogs have slaughtered guinea pigs, chickens, cats and a wallaby in Yeppoon over the past couple of months.

Their fierce attacks have been noted for their silence ... their killings, maiming and destruction is carried out in the dark of night without nearby homes being alerted.

1.he only sighting of the dogs believed responsible was made by Straz Stritzke of Yeppoon Stockfeed who told his wife there was "a German Shepherd, a cattle dog and a bit zer".

Straz and Tina Stritzke were the latest victims of the dog pack. They were greeted with the sight of 12 guinea pig bodies scattered around their stockfeed business in Braithwaite Street very early on Tuesday morning.

For Tina, who had raised each of them, it was the final straw ... their deaths brought the total she had lost to 33 this year.

Obviously upset, Mrs Stritzke said "the poor things were scattered around the property from the letter box to the back of the yard". She estimated they had been killed only a couple of hours before they were found because the bodies were still limp and felt warm.

Nothing had prepared her for the sight ... a caretaker who lives only metres from the scene of the attack slept soundly through the night and had not heard anything.

The ferocity of the attack stunned Mrs Stritzke. "They were killed for sport," she said.

"The dogs had not attempted to eat them ... they just killed them."

Mrs Stritzke examined the guinea pigs' cage and found stiff mesh wire had been bent backward and the cage had been moved

sideways by the dogs attempting to get at the pets.

• Apparently, when the mesh held firm, the dogs had dug under the cage then chased the guinea pigs until they escaped from the hole.

But that attack was not the worst ... early in.

January 17 guinea pigs had been killed by dogs.

"But we heard that a dog had been caught and assumed that was the last we would hear of the problem,- Mrs Stritzke said on Wednesday.

But there was another attack in the early hours of Monday last week and four guinea pigs were killed.

This week's raid finished off the last of her

on Thursday night; Friday morning last week and, for a number of reasons, was strange.

Mrs Millington said the A-frame chicken coop was a substantial structure with tightlystrung bird wire for covering ... yet the dog, or dogs, tore the wire apart.

There was one large hole in the wire big enough for a large dog to enter and there were two hand-sized holes in other parts of the wire.

The 12 chickens must have been terrorstricken while holes of this size were torn in the wire yet no-one heard anything.

Strangest of all, Mrs Millington can't understand why her black labrador, usually a

Guinea pigs, chickens, cats and Joey fall to silent killers pets and she does not feel like raising any more if a savage attack will be their fate.

But the dogs have also tried to get at the Stritzke's chickens and, again, the brute strength and ferocity was noticeable.

The bird wire around the chicken cages was ripped away from the walls on one side and the wire was torn and bent with paw marks on other sides. Luckily, for the chickens, they were still protected by a wider, and stronger, steel mesh.

Directly across the road, in Jeffries Street, Valerie Millington lost 12 three-month-old chickens to a dog or dogs. The attack occurred

good watch-dog, did not make a sound. She feels her dog may have been protecting pet ducks housed nearer to the home but it's odd that only one dead chicken was found in the cage.

The other 11 disappeared. Mrs Millington said the chickens must have been carried off yet there were no feathers around the yard.

Mrs Millington said there was a lot of noise in the yard that night but it sounded more like a possum up a tree than marauding dogs.

Benjamin, her 12-year-old son, is doubly upset at the attacks. The chickens were his pets ... and he lost the lot in one night. Even worse,

he used to feed the guinea pigs at Yeppoon Stockfeed and knew each of them as a pet.

For Carol Williams, in nearby School Street, dog attacks are something to fear. She has fouryear-old twins and worries about allowing them to play alone in the back yard.

One of the twins, Nathan, was knocked to the ground by a dog late last year and was so badly scratched by the do: pawing his back he had to be taken to hospital.

Mrs Williams said she worried about dogs all the time because so many large ones, such as German Shepherds, wandered freely around the streets and even into her yard.

She was given reason to worry one night about a month ago when dogs tried to get at expensive Gouldian Finches housed in a well constructed aviary in the yard.

The Williams awoke to find "quite a few" holes in the bird wire and paw marks. The holes and paw marks were all around the aviary, but no birds were hurt.

Again, nothing was heard. Mrs Williams said she did hear dogs, but she heard them all the time in the area and did not associate them with the attack on the aviary.

Another reason for worry is the vicious dog attack that occurred in the house next door where the Goodwin family lost a pedigreed persian kitten.

Jodi Goodwin said she and her husband heard the three-month-old kitten being attacked downstairs where it was kept under a table with a chair in front of it.

The Goodwins found the dog had moved the 0 CONTINUED ON PAGE 2

DOG PACKS CAUSE HAVOC ❑ CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 chair and taken the kitten away in its mouth.

They searched the area that night but found nothing.

The next day Bodge, the kitten, was found dead in the street in front of a house a few doors away.

That was late in January, just days before the children returned to school for this year.

Peter Goodwin was so incensed at the attack he typed a letter warning neighbours of what had happened to the kitten and asking everyone to tie up their dogs for the night.

He delivered copies to every house in Caroline and School Streets. His direct action did not endear him to some neighbours. The Goodwins had a few complaints from people who said they did not own dogs.

They also won some praise from others who were concerned about dog attacks.

Mrs Goodwin said this week the letters had not been distributed as a stir ... they had been delivered to warn people of what had happened and what could happen.

She said she was amazed her own fowls had not been attacked in the back yard because her husband had stopped a vicious attack on fowls in the house at the rear.

Just a few days before Bodge was mauled to death, Mr Goodwin had seen two dogs attacking fowls at the rear. One dog was in the fowl house and had already killed a few chooks and another dog was outside the wire. The dogs got away but Mr Goodwin saved the rest of the fowls.

But for sheer audacity, it would be hard to beat the attack at Gail Matthew's home a few doors down School Street. Mrs Matthews is the Capricorn Coast representative of the Capricornia Wildlife Welfare Association.

She rears orphaned kangaroos and other animals. Her yard is well fenced and there are enough animals to set off an alarm at the slightest provocation.

dogs would have made a lot of noise but these three certainly didn't. She thinks they had been trying to get into the yard for about three hours before they succeeded. Paw prints were found all around the outside of the fences in the morning.

Mrs Matthews said packs of dogs were also harassing foals and a donkey at Springfield Airport and had even taken to attacking calves there. She said she thinks there is more than one pack ... but was certain they were packs, not individual dogs.

When told that Yeppoon police had not had any reports of dog attacks, Mrs Matthews said there was little point in reporting them because the police didn't seem able to do anything.

The biggest problem was that even if a dog was captured by the dog catcher and impounded, the owner could retrieve the dog by paying a fine ... and the attacks would continue unless the animal was tied up at nights.

Further reports were received of cats being killed by dogs. Two were killed in Caroline Street and another in Tucker Street.

THE present high risk sexual behaviour with multiple partners exhibited by some sections of the community is a recipe for an early death, Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton said this week.

The risks associated with the disease AIDS were still sadly under-estimated by the community and would be countered by a heavy public educatin programme by the State Government.

Mr Hinton said AIDS was not a disease confined mainly to the homosexual community, but was a disease of sex.

He said the first three deaths in Australia occurred in 1983, with 114 deaths and 360 reported cases in 1986.

"The rapidly exploding infection rate will lead to up to 10 per cent of the population being infected in a futher five years and Queensland health authorities predict that in a further 10 years up to 80 per cent of the community could be infected at the present rate of expasion of the disease," Mr Hinton said.

"There is no doubt that stable marriage relationships are safest arrangements for the future well-being of the Australian community."

Mr Hinton said people practising indiscriminate sex with casual persons not tested as AIDS-free, were now taking an enormous risk.

"The use of condoms reduces risk, but condom failure, either through material failure or faulty usage, does not ensure the user is safe from infection," he said.

Mr Hinton said the sexual behaviour of the community needs to change such that sexual activity of young people should be delayed, to activity of young peole should be delayed, the numbers of sexual partners should be reducxed, dangerous sexual practices avoided and people at risk screened for AIDS and subjected to counselling.

"The government will also need to address the problem of how to curtail the sexual activities of those people known to be AIDS carriers and who are, in reality, transmitters of death," he said.

THERE is no intention to reduce rail services between Rockhampton and Yeppoon in the foreseeable future, Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton said this week.

Transport Minister Don Lane, in answer to a question in State Parliament by Mr Hinton, reiterated that recent Press speculation concerning the possibility of reduced services was without foundation.

Mr Hinton said the community on the Capricorn Coast had a right to be concerned following announcements by the Queensland Railway central division manager, Mr Neal, of other Central Queensland rail closures, which would be of great importance to the communities involved. • Mr Hinton said industries, such as the pineapple industry, had a right to be apprehensive about possible reduction of rail services, but there was no cause for concern on the Capricorn Coast.

Bill Van Wyk's final request was for colour, loud music and happiness BRIGHT colours, loud music and happiness will be an unusual' feature of Bill Van Wyk's cremation service in Rockhampton on Monday at 10am.

But that's the way Bill wanted it ... and that's the way he organised it long before his death.

He told his wife, Pam, he did not want long faces because it was no use being sad ... "he believed death was a part of life," Pam said this week.

"He viewed life as a letter; the envelope the body, and the letter the spirit. He said you keep: a love letter but always throw away the envelope.

"Bill very much believed a spirit should be set free and for five days Bill's.body has been lying waiting for the spirit to leave.

"It was very important to him to have the lying'." In his own words he said "after the `lying' I don't care what you do with me, you can even throw me over the back fence!"

Bill organised his funeral down to the last detail. He didn't want his funeral to be miserable.

He chose Amazing Grace and Battle Hymn of the Republic for the service. Pam arranged it so the last thing people hear as they leave the service is the Battle Hymn of the Republic.

"We leave on a high note and able to cope with the party he planned for after the service," she said.

"Three friends are staying at our place especially to organise the party; just the way he wanted it."

Bill Van Wyk was born in Java, Indonesia in 1926. His family was fourth generation white Dutch in Indonesia.

As a schoolboy, he returned to Holland with his family but went back to Indonesia after World War II to fight in the country's war of independence.

After being demobilised in Holland after the war, Bill came to Australia in the 1950s. He was naturalised in 1953.

In the Army he had been a marine engineer, but his love of life was to sell.

Pam said he worked for CML insurance company and won numerous awards for being top salesman. He sold real estate, cars and insurance, winning awards in all fields.

He has two children from a previous marriage and Pam, whom he married six years ago, has two children who adopted him as their father.

All of the children live in South Australia and a son from his first marriage and Pam's daughter have flown up for his funeral.

One of Bill's loves was to write to the papers

about crime and politics. Pam described him as a stirrer who hated 'moronic apathy' shown by many Australians.

"He loved to stir people and maybe by doing so they would get off their butts and do something about the situation," she said.

Pam said he had wanted people to react to his letters and maybe do something about criminals who got light sentences while the victims had a lifetime of misery.

In January he had five heart by-passes in Brisbane and he came home fit and well. Two weeks ago he returned to Brisbane for a checkup and was given a clean bill of health.

"At first I thought was all his pain and suffering worth it," Pam said.

But before the by-passes he could only work for 10 minutes and tire, he was taking up to 17 pills a day and couldn't do anything he really wanted to do.

"For two weeks after the operation Bill was happy, his blood pressure was normal, he did whatever he really wanted and he wasn't reliant on all those pills and I think that was the Bill I knew and it really was worth the trouble," she said.

He died on Monday afternoon after a heart attack and his ashes will be scattered in the Byfield rainforest which was one of the places he loved to be.

Council gangs get bridge work

ghan's Furniture 77 Rockhampton Road

LIVINGSTONE Shire day labour will be utilised for the reconstruction of Sleipner railway overpass on the Rockhampton/Emu Park Road, Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton said this week.

The work, costing about $1.7 million, is due to start in July.

Plans and specifications are being sent to the shire by the Main Roads Department.

Mr Hinton said the overpass was now a very dangerous point on the road and had been responsible for serious accidents in the past.

"The coming new overpass will also incorporate the lifting of adjacent low lying roadway to ease flooding problems," he said.

Education Dept shatters tradition of pre-schoolers on school buses THE tradition of Coast pre-schoolers travelling on school buses was shattered this year.

Parents have been told their pre-school children cannot travel on school buses.

He said it wasn't a pre-school teacher's responsibility to take children to and from a bus.

On the other hand, one pre-schooler's mother said the teachers preferred an adult to drop off and pick up the children.

Stella Withers said this had presented a problem to some parents.

She said she felt travelling by bus cut the trauma by half for pre-schoolers, expecially they will have to use a school bus the followi g year.

Mrs Withers wants to know why the reschoolers were stopped this year when, for years, children attending pre-school have b•en allowed to use school buses.

director Len Roles, replying to this query, said if any parent felt they had a special case he would look at the information and consider a request for a child to travel on a school bus.

Mr Roles said one of the reasons for stopping pre-schoolers from using the buses this year . had been complai • ...0 overc • Upon inve - - .1 . . - of ineligibl• udents • re causing the proble T. •e eligibi , a child under 10 y .rs of ag to live 3.2km from the near st primary chool. Children more t • an 10 ye s old have to live 4.8km from th ".res Mr Rol special o for children insid de these boundaries to use sch Mrs .1 thers and another mother, Pat Moran, said what angered mothers was that they were only told at the start of the sch year.

They only had short notice and - . fficulty in arranging alternative tra Because pre-s' prefer adults to drop off the young pupils, older brothers and sisters cannot be entrusted with the job of taking charge of the pre-schoolers on the bus.

OK to seafood ABOUT 4730kg of Capricorn Coast seafood which had been held by the Commonwealth Department of Primary Industry has been cleared for export.

Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton said he had been told by the Commonwealth DPI officials that there was no longer any impediment to export caused by quality problems in the Capricorn Coast water supply.

Mr Hinton warned howeve, that the problem could re-appear at any time until such time as either the company concerned, Tanby Sea Foods, put in their own filtration plant, or the proposed Capricorn Coast water supply filtration plant was installed.

Harbour seminar for marine radio OVERSEAS Telecommunications Commission (OTC) is holding a marine radio awareness seminar at the Yeppoon Coast Guard office, Rosslyn Bay on Tuesday, March 24 at 7.30pm.

OTC welcomes the public and any boat owners who rely on the services of the Rockhampton radio station.

The aims of the seminar are to make boat owners operators and the general public aware of services available to them through maritime communications.

The different radio facilities and types available will also be a basis for discussion.

A spokesman for OTC said it would tell the audience of ways ship radio and the Coast station operators can use the air-waves more efficiently.

Other objectives are for OTC to inform pleasure boat owners how to use their radios more effectively and to use the services provided by OTC which includes giving regular position reports.

The maritime community will be introduced to the new 'high seas voicecasts' which are longrange weather broadcasts for blue water mariners.

Integrated into the talks will be a section for membes of give their point of view on OTC and whether the service is fulfilling their needs and what additional services could be introduced.

Bayview opens coffee lounge BAYVIEW Tower opened its Bay Room as a coffee shop last Saturday to provide a new meeting place for residents- and visitors.

The shop will open Sunday to Saturday from 7am to 4pm and on Sunday night from 6.30pm to 9.30pm.

Bayview Tower manager Enzo Rulli said the coffee room would be an up-market take-away shop where people could sit without the hustle and bustle of others running around.

It's and inside-outside area which gives everyone a chance to sit either out in the garden near the fountain, or in the fomfort of airconditioning.

"We want to encourage everybody to come: local groups such as tennis, bowls and golf and housewives. Families and children are definitely welcome," he said. -Mr Rulli said it would be a place to get-away from the hustle and bustle of town.

Devonshire teas, Danish teas, sandwiches, croissants, quiche, soups, pasta's and a wide range of sweets will be available.

Children have their own menu which offer such delights as smurfburgers, neptune snacks, pasta and sandwiches.

Mr Rulli said the place would be an upmarked coffee shop requiring only smart dress and offering food at affordable prices.

The Bay Room was converted into the coffee shop while the coffee shop underneath the motel awaits a number of fittings before opening.

Breakfast is from 7am to 9am and lunch from noon to 2pm.

Although closing time is at 4pm the Bay Room will stay open later than this by prior arrangement.

Because the Bayview Tower is licensed, guests also can have a cold drink with their meals or snacks.

Mr Rulli said it wuld also be available for special functions and if parents want to bring the children along, and providing there are enough of them, the motel will provide babysitting facilities.

AUSTRALIA could become the next worldwide supplier of herbs, more than 200 people were told at a seminar on the weekend?

Coast herbalist Yvonne Saint Martin , who attended the commercial growing seminar last weekend in Bundaberg, was told overseas countries were looking to Australia after the Chernobyl disaster ecreased herb supplies.

An Austra herbalis n rb authority Denis Ste rt, said bec u f th Chernobyl disaster big manuf in Germany, Engla and Amen oul uy erbs from East n Eur clo ded with co poss le nucldar llou s Saint Mar in s•id it had bee stressed the semina asn't about any 'get-rich sch es' but utlined how herbs y become an e port industry for Australia.

0 rseas countries are terested in Austr lia because it has a di se climate from extrem cold in Tasma o desert conditions in the No of Australia, capable oT growing all the well known herbs (Rosemary, thyme, parsley to name a few)bought around th world and any other herb.

As a relatively pollution-free country, there is still a lot of land which could be used to grow herbs for commercial sales in overseas markets.

10 — Capricorn Coast Mirror March 21 -- March 27, 1987

YI BC's two wins Coast ALP starts big membership Yeppoon golf drive for community involvement EIGHT mats were in play at the Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club last Friday night when two North Rockhampton indoor bowls clubs, St Stephen's and St John's, each brought four teams to play Yeppoon Indoor Bmitling Club Members.

The Yeppoonites scored a double, beating St Stephen's by 45 points and St John's by 39 points.

Were Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club 148, St Stephen's 103 and Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club 154 and St John's 115.

Next Friday night, March 27, is Vicepresidents night at Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club, when trophies played for will be given by Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club vice-president Vera Farlow and Florence Collins.

Next Saturday night, March 28, the James Hare Memorial will be played at the Rockhampton and District' Indoor Bowls Association's Rockhampton hall.

It is expected indoor bowlers from the Coast will attend this fixture.

April is the month for the first of 'Ye Olde Davis Cup' games for 1987 to be played and Yeppoon Indoor bowling Club which has the trophy at present, will go to Biloela to play teams from the Callide Valley Indoor Bowls Association. The trip will be on Sunday, April 26.

And the following weekend bowlers from tile.

Mackay Indoor Bowls Association will pay their annual visit to the Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club.

Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club will visit Mackay and Callide Valley will come to Yeppoon in the second half of the year.

THE Capricorn Coast branch of the ALP has embarked on a membership drive. Branch president David Timbs has extended a welcome to supporters interested in joining the party.

He said it was now more important than ever that the party sought the involvement of a cross-section of the community the party seeks to serve.

"Ours is not a party pursuing the aims of selfish minority groups. We are a party with a long history of service and achievement," he said.

"It is vital that ordinary people become involved and have their say. In the Federal shpere, our government is coping with unprecedented difficulties imposed by international economic circumstances.

"Our politicians need to be kept in touch with all levels of each community. It is not good enough to vote at an election every three years."

All members could extend their interest and knowledge through regular debates on important issues.

"This constructive debate is something -1 hope to see emphasised at the Capricorn Coast branch meetings," Mr Timbs said.

"Through debate we learn tolerance, to listen to other points of view. Out of debate we cna in many ways influence the way our nation is gOing."

Mr Timbs said the ALP was the truly national party.

"With almost 25 per cent of our Fedeial pariamentarians directly representing country

people, we are in fact the strongest party representing country people," he said.

"In the next 12 months, Australian politics is going to be very stimulating. We cannot allow the extreme elements such as the New Right direct our destiny and erode our living standards.

"There is an important place for ordinary men and women in the ALP: At this important time we would welcome new members." Mr Timbs can be contacted on 33 6649.

Ladies bowls into full swing EMU PARK Ladies Bowling Club is now into full swing in this se_ason's games.

Joy Smith and Beryl Wincen won the club pairs against Joy Stewart and Flo Huggins ... a fly-away win with 49-7.

19 teams to play GYMNASTICS HELP TO YOUNG 5 from Coast in CQ swim squad YABA basketball ANY doubts about the viability of Yeppoon basketball were dispelled after the first two registration nights for YABA's grading competition at the Cooee Bay Stadium.

With more than 100 registrations, six junior, seven men's and six women's teams are in the draw for next week. Individual players and new teams still have the opportunity to find a place in the draw which will be expanded to accommodate new registrations.

A junior novice division has been designed to develop the new younger players' skills without excessive competition pressure. They play from 5pm on Sundays before the regular junior competition.

The senior competitions in both the men's and women's divisions range from veterans to school students. Keen inter-school rivalry is expected between Yeppoon High and St Brendan's students, but these enthusiastic kids still have some lessons to learn from some of the more mature members of the basketball community.

Former Yeppoon players such as Jimmy Shackleton, Ken Dooley and Vince Cranny showed they still intend to make their presence felt when they played last Monday and of course Rockhampton A grader Sue Stevenson will certainly make Billabongs the team to watch in the women's competition.

Yeppoon now has a fitness sport in a first class facility that is affordable thanks to the Queensland Recreation Council's stadium and L Khe public's response. YABA oficials are still '4"-'keen for more players particularly in the junior divisions.

Any inquiries on any aspect of Yeppoon basketball can be directed to publicity officer Don Willoughby on 393414.

CI By Heinrich Gogoll, Diploma of Physical Education Teach (Cologne) and International Gymnastics Coach.

STRENGTH, flexibility, balance and coordination are all attributes which apply to every 'sport in one degree or another which makes gymnastics of such real value for young boys and girls.

If at all, after taking up gymnastics, they have reason to relinquish their early training, it will still stand them in good stead in whatever other sporting activity they may adopt at a later date.

Co-ordination for an athlete is fundamental in any sporting area and gymnastics is undoubtedly foremost in developing body control as well as developing the pupil's will to improve daily in all apparatus work by promoting a deep sense of personal accomplishment and minimising any sense of inferiority because a classmate is doing better.

Gymnastics too, does, even in lower levels, give a great sense of personal satisfaction to young boys and girls of all ages 'though for top results in the higher levels a start aged 5 to 6 years is desirable.

Sadly, so many parents, not unnaturally, on viewing the world's top performers, perhaps from the Eastern Bloc countries or Japan, China or the US, think, "Oh my children could never do that," forgetting that all these award winners started too at the outset, as five or six year-olds with their home-town clubs.

So although Australia, despite the commendable efforts of current gymnasts has so far not achieved top international Status, it is most certainly within the country's capacity to win top honours if our interested young boys and girls have the chance to develop their talents at the right age at the grass roots level and so move on in due course to more advanced training in the country's capital.

Parents, if your son or daughter shows an interest in gymnastics, encourage him or her

and give them an opportunity to try.

At the least they will enjoy a fine, recreational and personally rewarding sport and at best, who knows, one may succeed as a true champion FOR interested parents and children the Coast gymnastic venue is the Arthur Street, Yeppoon hall under the direction of Kath Skinner as director/coach and Mr Gogoll as assisting coach. The Yeppoon Gymnastics Academy is held every Saturday. For information phone 27 3836, after 3.30pm at 27 2798 or 27 1700 until 5pm.

Justine Brettell and Lisa Phelan from St Ursula's College won places in the Central Queensland team. The girls swam well and will be part of the free-style contingent.

Jason Schmidt from St Brendan's College showed the opposition a clean pair of heels to win the backstroke event. Schmidt swam a fantastic time to clip 1.55 seconds off his St Brendan's record of 32.8.

That record he had just recently broken stood for 22 years.

Matthew Dooley qualified in the breaststroke. Schmidt and Dooley won places in the Central Queensland team. Both boys are from Yeppoon.

YEPPOON Seagulls Reserve Grade team went to Etna Creek prison on Saturday afternoon to play the Diehards on their home ground.

The Seagulls had a tough time of it, and it took the first half of the game to find their wings, after some feather fluttering, and without success.

The half time score was 16 to 6 in favour of the Diehards.

Coach Greg Schick obviously put the position strongly at the half time break because the Seagulls showed much ore mettle in the rest of their game, to produce a 22 to 16 result.

Not a win, but certainly a more fiery game than they had shown in the first half.

Rob Pidgeon produced the first try for Seagulls and played a game that won him the club's best player award. The others to add points to the Seagulls score were Steve Williamson and Clay Lennox.

Gary Horstman topped the tackle count.

Mick Allen, who went from the reserve bench to play, showed promising form in the second half, and Graham Diffy was playing well until forced to retire with a knee ligament injury.

Mick Blackburn also put in an excellent performance while he was on the paddock.

Scrums favoured Seagulls 11 to 5, evidence of Horstman's ability as hooker.

The Diehards had the advantage with the penalties, favouring them 13 to 10.

Both teams will be involved in competition games at Browne Park this weekend, playing Brothers in both grades.

It will be a full day of football, culminating in representative football as the main game at 3pm. This is the Central Queensland trials game to select the Capras.

Last weekend's games gave the warning to the Seagulls not to be complacent. Fitzroys defeated South Blackwater 42 to 24 at Saleyards Park; Blackwater Devils went to the top of the ladder defeating the Central Highlands premiers, Emerald at Rundle Park;

- THE Capricorn Iwasaki Resort is looking for the Golfer of the Year and is holding four amateur tournaments to find the best.

Resort golf manager Bruce Gordon said the four tournaments would each be open to 120 nominations. The tournaments will be held on the 6250-metre Iwasaki course in May, June, August and October.

Circulars have been sent to 97 golf clubs throughout Queensland and already, less than a fortnight after the announcement, 30 players have nominated for the first tournament.

Twenty nominations came from Brisbane and the other 10 from Dysart and Moura.

The tournaments are open to any golfers affiliated with the AGU or the ALGU.

See us

at

The first tournament will be held on the weekend of May 9 and 10. An 18-hole stroke competition will be held on the Saturday and Sunday. There will be three divisions: A for handicaps of 0 to 15; B for handicaps 16 to 27 and C for associates.

The male and female winners, and the runners up of each of the first three tournaments, will be invited to compete in the October final which will determine the Golfer of the Year.

Mr Gordon said the championship resort course was in top condition and would provide a test of golf with its 44 bunkers and three lakes.

Nearest-the-pin and hole-in-one contests will add to the excitement.

Tke back si JUST love stories about German Shepherds ... Alison Richter read last week's item about the GS that hopped into a lady's car and took a trip to Gawarral. Alison's story concerns her 10-year-old GS called Karla (she knows Karla is 10-y-o 'cos Karla's ears don't stand up anymore). Anyway, Karla terrorised a meter reader last Friday; spent part of Saturday night letting two unsuspecting police officers who were near her yard know that she was boss (you know, bark, bark, I'm boss, bark, bark) and, on Sunday, Alison came home from a trip out to learn from neighbours that Karla had bailed up some poor kid who was collecting for the Red Cross. Monday dawns and, after three straight days of mischief, Karla must have decided to try for a quadrella. She disappeared from her yard and came back some time later. Alison knew Karla was back because there was a strange grunting noise.

Alison rushes out into the front yard (still wearing her nightie) and with young daughter in tow and, lo and behold, there's Karla followed by a little brown pig wearing a wide dog collar. Alison, whose sole knowledge of pigs is pork chops and animals that charge four-wheel-drives, screamed and shoo-et... and did all the things a mother does to protect her young while, at the same time, striking terror into their hearts. Karla stood bemused watching new friend squeal off down the street while young daughter confessed to Mummy that her legs felt like jelly and her knees kept knocking together.

Anyway, Karla is not exactly man's best friend at the Richter's ... but Alison, after thinking it all over, wants to let whoever it is who owns a pet brown pig with a collar that she hopes it found its way home ... especially after her husband, Neville, wondered what all the fuss was about and couldn't understand why Alison didn't just catch the pig. I'll bet his visions of fresh pork chops for dinner turned to hot tongue and cold shoulder!!! o o o WHY is it that whenever a phone doesn't work, the head of the house immediately assumes either he (or she) or the second in charge (either she or he) didn't pay the bill?

What brings this to mind is a columnist's dream, a contributed item from a bloke who wants to send a bouquet to Telecom. Seems he came home t'other night and son tells him phone is dead. Now, like all fathers, he picked up the phone, listened, shook it, gave it a thump ... and said: "This phone isn't working." (Fathers are pretty smart.) First thought that came to mind was that bill hadn't been paid. About then Dad hears vehicle in street (not bad considering he admits to being a bit deaf in one ear) and wanders out to look (I found this this part hard to believe because how could anyone hear anything outside in a normal home with TV blaring, kids shouting at kids and mother shouting at everyone). Anyway, Dad wanders outside and would you believe it there's a Telecom truck. Dad hails drivev,..../ relates problem, and driver promises to pass on details (it's hard to phone Telecom when your phone isn't working). Next day Dad's at work, surrounded by boss' phones and remembers his own problem. He dials home, Mum answers and the family is re-connected to the rest of the world. Now, after relating all this, Dad just wants to say "thanks" to all concerned at Telecom ... and he closes his note by saying, "No, I hadn't forgotten to pay the phone bill!!!" Sounds like a guilty conscience to me! o o o
