LIVINGSTONE Shire Council has "come the full circle" with plans to employ two staff to replace "staff who were sacked or driven out," Cr Barbara Wildin said on Tuesday night.

She said council had decided during a committee meeting that afternoon to employ an assistant engineer and planning officer.

"Everything I fought against and warned about has come to pass," she said.

"We had a top engineer in Tony Rowe and this council sacked him, at great expense to the ratepayers. `.'We had perhaps the best planner in Queensland in Raul Weychardt ... and this council drove him out.

`I'm risking a fine by going public but enough is enough' — Wildin

t.

"He showed how good he was by being employed to guide Noosa Shire, one of the State's premier tourist areas."

Cr Wildin said council would have absolutely no hope of ever employing staff of high enough calibre to replace either Mr Rowe or Mr Weychardt.

"But we're still paying the same salaries ... or planning to," she said.

Cr Wildin said the decision to employ the two new officers was made behind closed doors, in committee.

"I'm not supposed to say anything about decisions made in committee. I'm risking a fine by going public but enough is enough," she said.

"Sooner or later this had to happen. This council has been a mess from the day it was elected.

"It fought the new chairman (Lindsay Hartwig, then Member for Callide) even though he represented two-thirds of the electors.

"It drove him out of office.

"It tried and failed to sack the engineer; involved the ratepayers in enormous expense for an inquiry into his actions; tried again to sack him, and finally, after a full Public Service appeal which called for his reinstatement, sacked him.

"We still owe him money for his costs in defending himself in the first inquiry.

"It looks as if we are finally going to pay him that $29,000 ... in addition to the massive settlement we had to give him and the legal costs on both sides.

"Now we're going to employ an assistant engineer to help Pat Murphy, the man council appointed to replace Mr Rowe. right back where we started ... but we we have lost the experience that Mr Rowe brought to council."

Cr Wildin said the second officer council intends appointing will replace Mr Weychardt and will be council's full-time town planner.

"Suddenly, amazingly, like a bolt of lightning from above, certain councillors

have discovered we need in-house staff ... not the consultants that cost so much and are only available part-time," Cr Wildin said.

"Now the ratepayers will be told these appointments are necessary. It will probably be couched in terms of the Coast being 'on the verge of a great boom' and we need staff to 'protect the ratepayers' interests'.

"This is exactly what our former staff were doing; or trying to do, without any help whatsoever from some elected councillors."

Cr Wildin said what went on in committee on Tuesday afternoon "sickened" her.

"I blew my stack," she said.

"I had to sit through endless garbage about how necessary these new staff were. I have no doubt they are necessary. They always have been, more so in the past than now, when development is quiet.

"But when we needed them what happened?

"The staff we did have; the qualified people who were doing their best by this area, we're fought tooth and nail not only inside the council but outside.

"The same councillors who then fought to get rid of the staff and replace them with consultants are now the ones fighting to employ staff.

"And we've paid out $178,000 in the past 18 months to a consultant just to prove their dangerous experiment was a failure."

Cr Wildin said she would be particularly interested to see the next YACA (Yeppoon Area Citizens' Association) pamphlet ... "I can't wait for it," she said.

"YACA has been oh so very quiet since it got its own way and removed a chairman, an engineer and a town planner," she said.

"Remember those yellow pamphlets attacking almost everything some councillors and staff did, while giving sickening praise to others?

si •

`Where are they now? Why has YACA been so quiet' — Wildin "Where are they now? Why has YACA been so . quiet? Has everything the Mark II version of the council done been so perfect?

"YACA was against staff. It wanted consultants. I expect to see a blistering attack on the council within days of this story hitting the streets.

"If it doesn't, then we'll all know just what YACA stands for ... and it isn't the Coast's ratepayers."

Cr Wildin said she expected a "sanitized" version of council's latest plan would be released to the Press.

"But I wanted the facts known. I want everyone to know just how much time, and money, has been frittered away," she said.

"There's more that I could tell about this council, but most of it would be matters that have been dealt with in committee.

"We might look as if we all get on well together ... but there's still an undercurrent in Livingstone Shire Council."

NINE absolute beachfront blocks will be auctioned on-site at noon on Easter Saturday ... the first land of its type to be offered since 1968.

Kevin Doolan, of Deasy and Doolan REal Estate, said this was the first beachfront subdivision to be offered on the Coast since Bangalee was developed in 1968.

The blocks, developed by principal of Setu Nominees Pty Ltd Ami Setu, front Reef Street, Zilzie, and back onto a Beach Protection reserve and the beach.

The nine blocks are part of a new development which is being pormoted as offering a free and easy lifestyle because of the beach and views over the sea to islands.

Mr Doolan said the complete estate had cost $750,000 to develop, without including the original purchase price of the raw land.

Mr Setu bought the land in 1980 and, since then, had been involved in getting the sub-

STATE Cabinet on Monday decided to review its current programme of forest thinning with overseas exports to Korea being marketed by the company, Wood Marketing Pty Ltd, Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton said this week.

"Cabinet is asking the question as to whether the timber exports are worthwhile," he said.

Mr Hinton said he had been told by Main Roads Minister Russ Hinze that Cabinet had asked Lands and Forestry Minister Bill Glasson to prepare a full report for next Tuesday's Cabinet meeting outlining the forestry programme, including details of the royalties received.

Mr Hinton last week led a deputation from Livingstone Shire Council, which included Shire chairman Cr John Bowen, deputy chairman Cr Keith Hinchliffe, engineer' Pat Murphy and shire clerk Jim Brown.

The deputation had put to Mr Hinze that the estimated cost of maintaining the road while 250,000 tonnes of timber was carted over it during the 21/2-year export period, was estimated at $500,000, with an additional unkown factor being the extent of bitumen failure.

Mr Hinton said representatives of the exporting company, Wood Marketing Pty Ltd, were also at the meeting and told Mr Hinze the company could not financially afford to contribute to road maintenance costs.

He said the Government was fully conscious of the need to make use of timber redundant because of forest thinning and strongly supported enterprises such as Wood Marketing whereby $8 million worth of export income was generated by private enterprise.

"However, if the profit on the venture is exceeded by the cost to the community in road

division approved, then the subsequent development.

He spent the weekend putting finishing touches to the estate, including planting more than 100 palm trees along the fronts of the blocks.

Mr Doolan said the blocks being auctioned on Saturday would appeal to people looking for a relaxed lifestyle ... "who want to wake up to the sight of the sun lifting out of the sea and want to enjoy walks and swimming from a peaceful, almost private beach".

"The average size of the blocks is 950m2 which will allow plenty of scope for home designs that will express individuality," he said.

The auction has been widely advertised and Mr Doolan said he expected many bidders because of the number of inquiries he had so far received.

There is a covenant on the blocks being auctioned. Mr Doolan said construction must be of brick or block and non-reflective roofing material must be used.

Mr Doolan said he expected a sell-out of the nine blocks because the vendor would, within reason, meet the market.

Long arm of law ready at Easter for lawbreakers DRINK drivers, people speeding and anyone behaving in a disorderly manner on Coast streets can expect the long arm of the law to catch them over Easter.

Acting officer-in-charge of Yeppoon Police Station Sgt lc Peter Trump said the police would concentrate on these offenders in a continued police effort to make Easter a happy and safe one for everyone.

Motorists can expect to see a large contingent of Rockhampton Police, who will be assisting in patrolling, on the Coast over Easter.

As well as reinforcements from Rockhampton, the Coast should be aware the police will be conducting their RID campaign along the whole Coastal strip.

Sgt Trump said motorists would be stopped and, depending on whether everything is in order, the delay should be minimal. If the police are confronted with an offender the person will be charged.

"We want motorists to be exceptionally careful during Easter especially as the school holidays are on at the same time," Sgt Trump said.

He said the police were looking out for traffic offenders.

"We don't want families to have their fun spoilt but if someone is breaking the law they can expect no mercy from the police," he said.

Sgt Trump said the staff of Yeppoon Police Station wished all Coast people a happy and safe Easter.

destruction, then the taxpayers are virtually subsidising Wood Marketing Pty Ltd," Mr Hinton said.

"In addition, the safety factor of school buses and other local traffic travelling in continuous palls of thick dust must be considered. It is almost inevitable that a tragedy will occur."

Mr Hinton said there was the long term problem of marketing the timber from Byfield forest without adequate road provision and the immediate problem of handling the 250,000 tonnes of forest thinnings.

"All timber, unless taken out by water as originally proposed, must pass down Byfield Road, Farnborough Road and through Yeppoon. When it is considered that major road upgrading is just starting on Farnborough Road, the congestion with trucks which is an Army-style operation when cartage is in progress, will be exacerbated," he said.

He could not predict the outcome of Cabinet's deliberations.

"As a result of the shire's deputation the problem is thoroughly appreciated and it is now up to Cabinet," he said.

Bill, who is building up a reputation with his errant chipping on the seventh green sent two members of the pineapple farming community scurrying for cover this week.

Last week's seventh hole victim, Des Hallem, was showing no ill effects and went on to win the comp with a 31 nett.

Brendan Kelly won a six pack with his best gross of 43. Pin shots went to Doc' Curley and Bill Bradford while Mike King landed the long shot.

Govt acts on pecuniary 'fiasco' THE State Government has amended the Local Government Act to ensure that there can be no repeat of the Livingstone Shire chairmanship fiasco and no further financial implications, Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton said this week.

"The Act will now allow all members of a council to vote on all such financial matters such as setting meeting fees and charges, which was thrOwn into doubt when a Supreme Court decision ruled that a candidate for chairman with accompanying remuneration could not vote in a ballot because of the pecuniary interest involved," he said.

Mr Hinton said the Supreme Court

decision had wide implications, dangerous to the good running of local authorities.

"The new amendment corrects this anomaly and allows councillors to participate in all ballots, irrespective of remuneration involved, including superannuation benefits or any matter on which the right to participate in any service, including the supply of goods, is offered for general use or consumption," he said.

Mr Hinton said the most unusual circumstances that had disrupted the election of the Livingstone Shire Council chairman and which caused considerable confusion and ill feeling, has been corrected and could not re-occur in Queensland.

Four Coast groups complain over Yeppoon Town Hall 'monopoly' FOUR Coast groups have complained to Livingstone Shire Council about difficulty in booking the Yeppoon Town Hall for Saturday night functions.

The complaints, three letters and one phonecall, were aired at this week's meeting.

They complained of the apparent "monopolisation of the Town Hall" by one group.

Groups, now are required to book six months in advance for the hiring of the Yeppoon Town Hall.

On separate occasions the National Association of Scope Clubs, and three other citizens representing sporting associations and schools sought bookings for Saturday evening functions without success.

In her letter to council, Yvonne Motton said she had tried to book the Town Hall through the correct channels but was unable to do so because it was booked by "one organisation on an assumingly permanent basis".

She further said: "In fact it seems they have a monopoly."

Ann Thompson also found organising the hall for Saturday a headache.

She said she had tried to hire the hall at the beginning of March for two different organisations either in August or September (about six and seven months ahead of time) but found no Saturday available for at least six months.

Scope Secretary Lynda Gustufson said that when organising a public function it was difficult to plan six months in advance to make sure of the hall on a Saturday night.

"It would appear that the Capricorn Coast Olympic Swimming Pool had the Hall booked every Saturday night six months in advance," she said.

"While they may be a very worthy cause, we feel that no one community organisation should hold such a monopoly on a hall that belongs to all the people in the town."

In a report tabled at the Council meeting, it was shown that from April to September the Olympic Pool Committee had the hall booked for its bingo on all bar five nights.

The report said the complaints expressed were valid but the Olympic Swimming Pool Committee was within its rights, under the existing policy, to pre-book for the ensuing six months.

Bookings already accepted from the Swimming Pool Committee, would have to be honoured, the report said.

One suggestion in the report was for bookings of more than two months duration not be confirmed at any one time.

This two month limit ensured access to the Town Hall by all community groups, the report said.

Capricorn Coast Olympic Swimming Pool secretary Cr Brian Dorey said those people complaining had the right to book on a Saturday night but to change from six months pre-booking to two months would destroy the system.

The major fundraising function for the swimming pool was the bingo and the group needed the hall to hold its bingo sessions.

"Without this major fundraiser, up to 66 per cent of the association's fundraising would be lost.

An estimated $12,000 each year was raised through bingo and without that they would not be able to make loan repayments on its $30,000 loan with the bank," Cr Dorey said.

He said the committee had, with forthought and planning, so far done a good job of keeping the "major source of funds" going.

Cr Dorey said while "the Olympic Swimming Pool committee was running its bingo sessions, it had relinquished booked nights to certain organisations in the past and would continue to do so."

He cited that one group had approached him recently for a Saturday night booking and no hassles were involved by letting the group have the night.

Cr Dorey said with prior consultation with the _ Swimming Pool committee they were only too happy to change their venue to the CWA hall.

Cr Geoff Cue said the "Town Hall was the main public venue for the community" and he asked if by introducing the two month system "would it solve the problem."

Chairman, Cr John Bowen said with the twc month system, a group could book "two months consecutively and not the third."

Cr Cue then moved that a report tabling the criteria and policy for the two month recommendation be set up and tabled at the next meeting. The motion was seconded by Cr Mario Ciesta.

Cr Dorey registered his name against the motion.

EASTER is a season of hope. It is a hope that leads to the comfort of knowing that there is meaning in this life, and life after death.

Our hope is buoyed by the change in the • meek and sacred tollowers of Jesus in the short time after His death. The change confirms that something very unexpected took place at the first Easter.

The change was startling. Peter was a different person. Because of the unexpected, Peter became a man with a mission. His mission was to tell whoever he could that Jesus had opened the way to God. God was no longer out

there, but in Jesus, God had stooped down to live as one of us. Through his death and new life, our lives have meaning, now and always.

Our existence is not meaningless. God loves every one of us.

The life and teachings of Jesus are like a light that drives away darkness in a dark room. The light of Jesus tells us that we too can be changed like Peter.

All we need is faith. That is the meaninl.

Easter.

The Anglican congregations of Emu Park and Yeppoon wish you the guidance of the light of Jesus. It is the light that shone at the first Easter to give our lives meaning and acceptance, and hope of eternal life.

"He is risen" ... these three simple words are the most powerful message that mankind has ever received.

Ever since they were first proclaimed in Jerusalem nearly 2000 years ago they have faced manking with a real challenge ... to believe or not to believe.

For those of us who do believe we once again have th joy of celebrating the great Feast of the Resurrection in a few days time. It is my earnest hope that we will proclaim our belief in the Resurrection of Christ by our daily lives as well as by our words.

After Christ rose from the dead, He spent the time until His ascension preparing His followers to bring His love to the world. Do we still do this in the name and with the power of the Risen Christ?

For this Easter I wonder if we can all try to bring the joy of the Resurrection into the life of

tho6e around us with a genuine and a sincre smile and a greeting which comes from the heart.

One thing we must remember is that for a follower of the Risen Christ, even a smile must not have any strings attached.

The Easter Season reminds us that the love of God has no strings attached ... at the Last Supper, Christ gave us His Body and Blood to be our food for our journey through life; on the Cross on Good Friday EJe gave His life, so that we might have a share in eternal life, and His resurrection on Easter Sunday is our guarantee, as St Paul told his young friend Timothy: "If we have died with Him then we shall live with Him; I we hold firm, then we shall reign with Him".

May the peace and joy of the Resurrection be with you this day and always. Celebrate this Easter by joining with your fellow believers and taking part in the great ceremonies of Holy Week.

EASTER is Easter egg time and Easter eggs are fun.

That is of course, if you are receiving one, or even giving one ... definitely not if you are inside one. On the inside they are dark and hollow and rather like a tomb, and can only be broken open from the outside.

The outside of the egg is so much more attractive than the inside, with its decorations and colours and even shapes.

Moreover, someone has gone to so much trouble to make it so.

When you are on the inside you miss out on

so much and an eggshell can be so thin that you can live inside one for a thousand years and not know you are inside.

You don't know what you are missing and getting out means taking a step yourself.

Once there was a village surrounded by enemies and the people herded together in their houses tightly shut up, until the day came when the enemy was defeated.

One man stayed in his house and didn't know the war was over. He had turned up his radio and couldn't hear the knocking on his door.

Another was waiting ready and when the good news came he ran out of his house shouting: "I am free! I can live again!"

There would be nothing to celebrate at Easter if Jesus had remained in the tomb and not stepped out, as his Father and ours raised him from death.

We are released by his death and resurrection.

May Easter be a leap into new life for all of us as we break open for the old and step into the new ... and as you break open your Easter eggs may Easter joy be yours.

Easter: New life given to us by God ❑ By Pastor Deuter Baptist Church EASTER gives hope.

• Although Easter is strictly a pagan word by origin. in our society it has a meaning that should not be ignored.

It is the time when people of Australia remember, if only by the means of a public holiday. that tremendous event of history ... the resurrection of Christ from the dead. That he rose is the point of the whole season, hidden though it may be, under the commercialism and cynicism of our day.

Lately I personally have been faced with death again. And it struck me again that the only message that really brings comfort to those who are grieving is that there is a risen Christ Who has power over death and the grave, so that when sorrow and bereavement strike us we have hope.

To look at a grave with the new coffin of a loved one and not to have that knowledge that

Christ has risen and has all things in His control is the most devastating thing I know. But to have that sure and steadfast hope in Christ is comfort and hope indeed. It is especially close when one has entered into that saving relationship by faith and acceptance of Christ as Saviour and Lord.

What is hope this Easter? Fine weather, nice holiday or similar? Do you consciously push the road toll, your age or other reminders of death far from you?

Or do you rest secure in the historical surety ... the religious significance and personal hope of the resurrection of Jesus Christ?

The Easter message is that there is life from death and after death ... a totally new life given to us from God. Why not make this Easter the beginning of your hope in God? The Baptist Church wishes all the Capricorn Coast Mirror readers a blessed and holy Easter. Good Friday service is 9am.

❑ By G S Hudson Wesleyan Methodist "BEHOLD the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world." John 1:29.

During this Easter season let us "Behold the lamb of God" as He makes His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, as the coming King of Kings (Rev 17:14).

The question is: Has He made His entry into your life? Does He rule and reign in your life?

"Behold" Him as He enters Jerusalem with love and a burdened heart ... Matthew 23:37.

Today He still has that same love for us and carries that burden to gather us to Himself.

"Behold" Him also as He enters the temple and cleanses it from .a "den of thieves" to a "house of prayer" ... Matthew 21:12-17.

God forbid that we allow our churches to fall into this self-same state.

"Behold" Him as He enters Gethsemane with a heavy, sorrowful heart, praying for strength to bare our sins on the cross ... Matthew 26:37,38.

He has never stopped praying for us ...

•••

Hebrews 7:24,25.

"Behold" Him as He enter the Judgement Hall before a blood-thirsty crowd crying out: "Crucify Him!", and before a judge who would rather have friendship with Herod, the King, and the Jews than do the right and honest thing ... freeing an innocent man. Have we as Christians changed so much over the years from the outside pressures that we prefer being "friends" with the world than following the Christ.

"Behold" Him as He trudges up Calvary's Hill bearing the heavy cross to make full atonement for our sins ... Hebrews 9:12.

"Behold" Him who by His ressurecton (Matthew 28:6, Acts 1:1-3) has gained victory over sin, death and the grave. "0 grave where is thy sting, 0 death where is thy victory?• thanks be to God who gives us the victory" (1 Cor. 15:55.57).

At this most important time of year lef us "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world".

Easter: History's greatest weekend

0 By Assistant Pastor Neil Marks Seventh-Day Adventist Chur01 HISTORY'S greatest weekend.

Which do you consider the most important events of all time? The great battles that have changed the course of history; the great inventions that have drastically influenced civilisation; or the great scientific discoveries of our age?

These are all momentous events but their impact is restricted to time and the world in which we now live.

The most important events in the history of this world transpired one weekend in the spring of AD 31 in Jerusalem. The Apostle Paul in writing to the Christians at Corinth declared: "For I delivered to you as of first importance ... that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriQtures, that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day ... " 1 Corinthians 15:3,4. RSV. These are history's most momentous events for they deal not • only with time but also eternity, not only with the world that now is but also that which is to come.

The world has never been and can never be the same as a result of the events of that weekend in Jerusalem nearly 2000 years ago.

When Jesus went to the cross that Friday, God manfully declared His concern for all mankind and gave to every person the hope of eternal life.

God's mission to save man 0 By Pastor Ernie Peters, Capricorn Coast Assembly of God THE reason we celebrate Easter ...

God sent His only Son Jesus as a man to bridge the ever-increasing gap between God and man.

In doing this, His genuine love and grace is demonstrated while He remains a just God consistent in judgement.

Jesus explained His mission in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, also the epistles and especially Isaiah.

Here are some reasons for the Easter story.

The sad story of Easter was because of our plight and desperate need.

In suffering the death penalty as a sinless man He died for us ... for our sins, if you are a sinner, Jesus died so you can be set free from the destructive power of sin.

If you are under guilt ... He died so your guilt could be cleared.

If you are sick ... He carrried our sicknesses to the cross, so that believing in Him you can find healing. (God is now restoring faith in Jesus to heal, to the church.)

If your life is full of grief ... Jesus died to set us free from grief.

If you seem to experience one sorrow after another ... you can cast them all on Him. Easter sure has everything to do with mankind being set free from the oppression of evil, sickness, sorrow and hopelessness.

Coming to Jesus is not religion. It is a relationship of faith. It is not an academic procedure, but a heart experience. You can be loved and forgiven by God. Allow God's love to take you to the Cross this Easter and experience all the good things He has to offer.

When Jesus rose from the tomb early that Sunday morning, the best news of all was sounded ... God's rescue mission to save man from the penalties of sin had been a complete success.

Jesus had broken the bonds of death and thereby solved life's ultimate problem.

The basic message of Easter is life! Jesus' death and resurrection offer us life on a scale and to a degree unimaginable before.

As Jesus Himself said: "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10.

IWASAKI RESORT OPENS MOTOR INN WING — `Hardly room for a dog to bark'

-

CAPRICORN IWASAKI Resort's Melaleuca Motor Inn opened on Wednesday, April 15, with full bookings for the Easter period.

Iwasaki's spokesman Colin Buckingham said the fourth accommodation wing had 100 units as well as an a-la-carte restaurant, cocktail bar and swimming pool.

The motor inn will be taking bookings from Wednesday but three coach tours and some private guests have already booked in.

German, Swiss, English, American and Australian tourists are part of guests already booked into the motor inn.

Manager of the new Melaleuca Motor-Inn is Coast businessman John Peach.

All the other accommodation wings; Royal Palm, Queen Palm and Araucaria, are almost booked out.

A few vacancies are still available but lwasaki's will be fairly full during Easter.

One of the Coasts' motels experiencing its first Easter is Bayview Tower.

Manager Enzo Rulli said the motel was totally booked out from Good Friday.

He said bookings prior to that day weren't really good but dramatically changed from Thursday with the Easter long weekend.

Mr Rulli said quite a number of the guests were from New South Wales, Brisbane and overseas tourists.

The trend at two of the Coast's bigger motels is for a bumper Easter with full or large bookings being made by visitors.

This boom has been felt by nearly all of the Coast 'motels.

A survey was conducted to see how bookings were going and the results are: GUM NUT Glen's Cecily Pickett said she was booked out for the Easter break and school holiday period.

She said they were normally booked out during the school holidays at this time of the year.

BEACHSIDE Caravan Park is about 75 per cent booked out, mainly with Central Highlands guests, manageress Norma Kidman said.

"It's about the same every year for us during the Easter Break and is a fairly good time," she said.

BELL PARK at Emu Park is about threequarters full.

Manager Gary Harris said tent sites were full over Easter but there were a few caravan vacancies.

He said bookings were slightly down on past years but he still expects the Easter break to be "fairly good".

A SMATTERING of guests from all around the country is the trend at Blue Dolphin Caravan Park. Manager Ruth White said the Easter break looked good whereas the school holiday week was "down a bit" in bookings.

A FEW powered sites and tent sites are all that are left at Capricorn Palms Caravan Park, manager Jeanette Cavanagh said.

Guests are from the Central West and Rockhampton, making it very busy, she said.

A SLIGHT decrease in occupancy rates from past years at Coolwaters hasn't dampened the holiday spirit. Manager Tanya Rayfield said the units would be fully occupied during the Easter break and school holidays, but there were still some on-site caravans available. The tent area has been completely booked out.

Mrs Rayfield said it was hard to say where the majority of guests would be coming from. There were German, Swiss and Western Queensland guests staying at the caravan park.

AN ISLAND View spokesman said bookings could be deceptive. Generally, people booked two to three weeks in advance, but there were always a few spaces available.

"Units, camp and powered sites look booked out but some powered and tent sites will be available to holiday-makers," the spokesman said.

KINGEL PARK -at Keppel Sands is looking forward to the usual influx of mainly Rockhampton and Central West visitors, manager Jim Mills said.

He said the Easter/School holiday period was on a par with past years with about threequarters of the park full.

LAKESIDE Caravan Park manager Gayle Scanlon said Easter was booked before Christmas.

"Local and mining town people take advantage of the Easter break to have a holiday and are the main guests. Some southerners are also staying at the park," she said.

DOT CODD of Maine Caravan Park said her units were fully booked out as they usually were for the Easter period.

A few sites are still empty. Guests mainly come from the mining towns and Rockhampton.

MULUMBIN Beach Caravan Park manager Harry McNamara said there was "hardly room for a dog to bark".

Mr McNamara said " guests had come from everywhere to take advantage of the short holiday".

Stacks of grassy tent areas also were available she said.

ARALUEN units is booked out, a spokesman said. Guests have come from everywhere to stay at the units.

ALLAMANDA Court manager Jo-Ann Murray said Easter was "looking pretty good" with a full house of guests.

She said the doubling up of holidays with New South Wales and Victoria hadn't helped but they were as good as could be expected.

BAY VACATIONER'S Yvonne Motton said the Motel was booked out.

She said this was very similar to past years and the units were usually booked out.

EVERY day by 8am the Backpackers Hostel was fully booked, manager Tony Milroy said.

He said the hostel had had. an influx of Swedish and English visitors and expected full bookings until the end of April.

SOPHIA Jerkac from Blue Anchor Motel said it was fully booked for Easter.

A few rooms were vacant over the school holidays.

COMO UNITS manager Fay Simon said . Easter was always a good period.

She said the same time each year compared favourably with past years.

Mostly Western and Rockhampton people stayed at the motel but some guests have come from the south.

A "FANTASTIC" demand for the Easter break has left Driftwood units fully booked.

Manager John Allen said it had been quite miserable beforehand but for the four days over Easter the motel was full. ., ELGAN units has had to turn away guests wanting accommodation during Easter. manageress Vivian Nagle said.

Mrs Nagle said Easter always was busy with visitors coming from Rockhampton, Biloela, Alton Downs, Mackay and the South.

SHARON KING of Emu Park Motel said the long-weekend at Easter was fully booked.

She said Easter was usually full but a number of guests at the motel had pre-booked months ahead of time.

THE entire Easter period is booked out at Golden Sands, manageress Lyn Witts said.

She said it always was the same at this time of year.

HACIENDA unit bookings are more or less similar to past years with a "fairly full Easter," a spokesman said.

ISLAND VIEW Motel was booked out and according to manageress Roxanne O'Keefe this was typical of the Easter period every year.

THE ODD night during the school holidays is all that is available at Kinka Lodge, Judith Watts said.

She said it wasn't as busy as in past years but the Easter break was very full..

Guests are mainly coming from the West to holiday at Kinka Lodge..

LAMMERMOOR Lodge's Doug Cruden said this week and Easter was booked out.

Mr Cruden said he only had five units. One group of guests were from Brisbane and the r,emainder from Rockhampton.

PARADE 38 still has a couple of vacancies. manageress Leonie Miles said.

She said the Easter long weekend was, as in past years, full, with guests coming from Western towns and the south.

RAILWAY Motel's Jan Schmidt said they were fully booked for Easter.

She said vacancies still existed during the week but the Easter period was booked out.

Mrs Schmidt said this year was about the same as past years with holiday-makers coming mainly from the Central Queensland area.

A SCATTERED guestlist makes up a "nearly full" motel at the Sail-In. Sail-In's spokesman said it wasn't a really good year but a number of southerners had drifted in.

The spokesman said this was similar to past years.

SUNLOVER Lodge's Brigitte Beilharz said

they were booked out from Good Friday until the following Tuesday..

• Mrs Duffy said Easter was a typically busy time for the motel with guests being turned away day-by-day.

TIDEWATER Units are booked out for the Easter period with guests from the Western and Northern regions.

New manager Len Hearnden has only just taken over the reins at the motel but said looking back through the records it appeared this time of year was similar to past years.

❑ AT LEFT: Released into a box with other eggs soon to hatch, the crocodile quickly moves around in its new environment. While Mr Lever said he could not guarantee eggs would be ready for hatching each day the farm is open, there was a good chance of seeing this happen between now and late May because 400 eggs• are in the incubator.

YEPPOON Scout Group will have its seventh annual general meeting on Wednesday, April 22 at 7.30pm in the hall in Cooee Bay. Don't worry, you won't get pulled into a job because the committee is already sorted out ... but, of course, you would be very welcome to help out on the committee. The Scout Movement usually has the committee mapped out before the AGM so that parents won't feel threatened, and it is a good idea because then you can go along and see what you child has and will do for the year as well as meet their leaders. But, because it is a volunteer organisation, help is always needed. o o o This month's paintings on display in the banks: Joy King at the ANZ; Claude and Ella Richter, Commonwealth and Mary McKenna at the National.

Paper Laminating

'LEST We Forget' was the theme of the stage decorations at the April social of Yeppoon Pensioners' League held at the Yeppoon Town Hall on Tuesday afternoon.

Highlight of the stage scene was a cenotaph with a fixed bayonet and digger's slouch hat on its base and miniature Digger and Red Cross, each side of the stage. Australian and Queensland flags added to the Anzac flavour of the social.

Among the 90 who attended the afternoon was a former member of the league and a member of the pensioners' singing group which had Marje Cornell as its conductress and accompaniest. She was Joy O'Rourke who in 1982 married John Collins and now lives at Deniliquin, New South Wales.

Lynda Leech, to her own piano accompaniment, sang a request song for her husband, Frank ... 'Oh for the wings of a dove' and followed with 'You will remember Vienna' in the chorus of which she was joined by Emu park's Jack Flanagan. Jack later pleasirigly sang a duo of songs.

Marje Cornell was heard to advantage in 'My greatest mistake' and 'Has anyone seen my sweet Gypsy Rose?'.

Beryl Dawson took time off from husband's sports store to entertain with 'On the street where you live' and 'Try to remember'. Those who listened to her effort will be waiting for her to attend more socials.

Other soloists were Sarah Hall, Maureen Dinsdale, Ruby Harris, Alf Marcombe, Bill Shuttlewood (Yeppoon) and Alec Bacon of Emu Park.

Yeppoon's Pauline West and Dot Close were pleasing in a duet ... Mary's a grand old name and Cruising down the river.

A septet of men and a sextet of ladies from The Entertainers were 'applauded for their brackets of songs.

Wearing a uniform which must surely have been worn by Napoleon at Waterloo, assistant compere Joe McIntyre brought the house down with his recitation of 'Marksman Sam'.

He returned to recite 'Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels'.

Bill and Rene Jones played a medley of Easter melodies prior to the start of the social and later Rene teamed with Marje Cornell in a stirring piano duet featuring 'Flirtation Waltz' and 'Woodpecker's Song'.

George - Cooper played a month organ medley and for good measure came up with a recitation ... Redback Spider. Frances Biles also showed her prowess on the mouth organ.

Alec Ogilvie gave six decorated glasses for door prizes.

Dick and Betty Tyrer gave two fruit and vegetable trays for the raffle and these were won by Lynda Leech and Lil Shaw (Emu Park).

A third tray was won by Kinka Beach's Ada Evans. Milly Kitchener, Yeppoon, won fourth prize ... a parcel of books.

Lucky door prizes went to Eve Cook (2), Marje Cornell, Rene Jones, Ethel Putney, Dulcie Cooper, Jenny Shepherd, Phyl Shepherd (Yeppoon) and Emu Park's Janet Thwaite.

Accompanists for the afternoon were Marje Cornell, Rene Jones and' Lynda Leech.

The afternoon ended with Maori's Farewell and Auld Lang Syne. o o o EMU Park's pensioners singing group The Entertainers has a new secretary ... Mary Gurney of 31 Fountain Street, 39 6029. Peggy Stephens of Zilzie•has given up the job she has held since the group started about three years ago.

Reader cannot express grief felt over baiting of German Shepherd I CANNOT put into words the grief I feel losing a beautiful happy:go-lucky ninemonth-old German Shepherd to the person who is baiting dogs.

It always seems to happen to the harmless and innocent dogs that don't cause any trouble.

Unfortunately, there is little anyone can do.

POSTERS Keppel Art & Framing 50 Normanby St 39 1774 1'

There have been several dogs that have been killed in our street in the past five months from poison. I cannot understand why anyone could do something so malicious. Any small child could easily pick up the baits.

Most people love dogs and cannot understand why this person does such a rotten thing as deliberately throwing bait to household pets ... pets that bring happiness and companionship.

I would like to say to this person who is baiting our dogs that you are cowardly and sick and you badly need counselling before someone's small child is killed.

Big top' coming to showground THE "big top" is coming to Yeppoon Showground for two nights on April 20 and 21.

The Royale American three-ring circus is described as A4tralasia's newest and largest, circus extravaganza.

A publicity spokesman said it was the only circus "ever in New Zealand and Australia".

Circus owner and managing director Frank Gasser, a Swiss trapeze artist, said he "knew the writing was on the wall" for the old-time circus.

It was a case of grow big or fold his tents.

Because he had no intention of giving up the "big top" (he is fifth generation Swiss circus family with more than 200 years' circus heritage), he looked to the other course and "big" and "top" is what Circus Royale has become.

The Circus boasts top acts from around the world providing an action packed 21/2 hour non-

Perhaps the most spectacular act in tt,..—" entire circus (and the only one of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere) is that of the mixed 'Big Cats'.

Frank Gasser trains the animals; Tigers, Leopards and Black Panthers which mingle in the same arena cage.

According to Mr Gasser it makes for a dangerous combination as the two groups of cats ate anything but compatible.

Another attraction, just as dangerous as the 'Big Cats' is the Spider-man act.

This act is imported from Hollywood and involves spider-man who climbs all over the ceiling of the 'Big Top' who then jumps from the very top of the tent to be caught by his ankle centimetres from the ground.

Fire-eaters, jugglers, horses, clowns and whole lot more can be seen when the circus hits the town.

SWANS DOWN "THE Yeppoon Swans were beaten by 48 its last Saturday, but were anything but raced.

The side was back to showing the grit and determination that has been its hallmark since the club's inception.

Unfortunately the side was sadly undermanned again by lack of numbers, and seven players had to play two full games, as was the case last week.

However the Boyne Island Saints found the plucky Swans more than a tough proposition and if it were not for some inacurate kicking in front of goal the result could have been much closer.

Greg Brown, undoubtedly the best centre half back in the CAFL, showed his class when he played in the uncustomary role of centre half forward and emerged as a clear winner when resting in that position.

Darren Kemp marked well all- around the ground and even when moved out of the action in the final quarter still managed to kick three goals.

Lank 'Dive Bomber' Lacy picked up where he left off last week throwing himself fearlessly into the fray and was the Saints' main stumbling block in defence.

Brett Motton put paid to his much vaunted

n

`ANYTHING BUT DISGRACED' Close games at Yeppoon bowls

BITS opponent until severe cramps, legacy of seven quarters of football, took their toll late in the third quarter.

Alex Herawane was back to his organising best using his roving position to keep things going from one end of the field to the other.

The club welcomed back 'Big Bird' Shane Tickner into the side. Although short of a gallop his 80 metre goal was enough to guarantee that he will be a tremendous acquisition.

The Swans' brain trust will have to look at itself closely. It has taken a successful side of last year, turned it upside down, and ended up laying an egg.

For last week's game they threw away their hat preferring to pick the side as the players were filing off the bus.

Another loss, so why not revert back to last year's winning formula and put the side back on the rails.

The Reserve grade suffered its first loss, but not without fighting tooth and nail for the whole 100 minutes.

The side was forced to play with only 15 players and each and everyone of them played their hearts out and were unlucky to go down by only three goals.

"Big Bird" Bill Culton was back to his bulldoging best as he crashed through from

centre half back time and time again.

"Dinger" Dell, back in the fold, was his usual reliable self, repelling BITS forward thrusts with monotonous regularity.

Rob Gardner continues to improve in his role at centre half forward, and his four goal haul topped a great effort.

The side was intermingled with A graders, whose experience and added skill was also a factor that kept the Swans in touch.

Brian "Cooky" Cruikshank was the pick of them using his pace to great advantage.

Peter Thompson injured a shoulder, but refused to leave field, typifying the spirit the Swans had. To his credit he was a major contributor in his side's final quarter flurry.

Final scores: A grade BITS 19-10-124 to Yeppoon 10-16-76. Goalkickers: D Kemp 3, S Tickner 2, A Herawane, P Munro, C Bourke, C Brown and B Lord 1 each.

Reserves: BITS 8-10-58 to Yeppoon 5-9-39.

Goalkickers: R Gardner 4 and D Kemp 1.

This weeks grooming award goes to Chris "Spiros" Bourke for his fish-based aftershave.

This week Yeppoon takes on the Biloela Bombers a game which should see the Swans back on the winners liSt. Full canteen and beer booth facilities will operate with the main game starting at 3pm.

Seagulls put spanner into Green Machine's works for double win YEPPOON'S Seagulls threw a spanner into the works of the Green Machine last Sunday at the Yeppoon Showground when they defeated last year's Rockhampton Premiers, Fitzroys in both A and Reserve grades.

Teams in both grades on both sides showed strong attack and defence play. Under referee David Hill Reserve grade opened the day at 1.30pm.

When the half time whistle blew the score marginally favoured the home side, 10-8. Both teams added 10 points to their tallies in the second half and the Seagulls came out winners 20-18.

Try scorers for Yeppoon were Craig Witts, Alan Moylan, Shane Weir and Gavin Wiseman.

Jhon Pidgeon kicked two goals. For Fitzroys: W Butler, B Smith and J Hamilton tries and B Smith three goals.

The A grade game was under the control of Geoff Evans. Fitzroys opened the scoring after only a couple of minutes when Stew White went over the line and Bobby McGuire converted.

The first half was one of fierce attack and defence which saw the Seagulls four points ahead at the break.

In the second half, the Seagulls' attack was too strong for the Green Machine's defence.

From a score at 16-12 at half time, Yeppoon, by vigorous attacking, added a further 16 points, and defended strongly enough to allow Fitzroys add only six points.

Yeppoon's final points came only a minute before the final whistle. Point scorers: Yeppoon; Mick Stafford, Col McPherson (2), Mick Allen, Dwayne Iles (2) and Clay Lennox 4 goals. Fitzroys: Stew White, Mike Daligura and Gary Iles, tries; Bobby McGuire kicked 3 goals.

The game was fiercely played with some minor injuries, use of the sin bin and also one player from each side being reported to face the judiciary.

Touch judges were Messrs C Gale and D Podgey.

Noticed among the spectators was former Seagulls secretary Ray Ptrwell now a resident at Blackwater, and still maintaining a keen interest in rugby league.

Yeppoon Club president Maurie Webb was pleased at the good roll-up last Sunday and is looking forward to continued local support for the three remaining games to be played in Yeppoon later in the season.

He also was very appreciative of the work by club players and members in preparing the 'grounds for the matches, and added thanks

also must go to team managers, Kelvin Pengilly and John Dawes, and trainers Mick Joyce and Chris Schick.

Players have a break this weekend because there's a Winfield State League contest at Browne Park on Sunday, Capras v Redcliffe.

Two of last year's players, Troy Evans and John Jenkins, are now playing for the Redcliffe Dolphins, and Yeppoon players are also in the Capras team.

$300,000 Tyrer Park drainage upgrading a success THE reports were good when Yeppoon's Tyrer Park re-opened for racing after a massive upgrading of the track during the past three months.

Rain early on Tuesday and then through the day threatened to put the meeting off but splendid work produced a track that received favourable comment from the jockeys.

Altogether around $300,000 has been spent on upgrading the track over a much improved drainage system as well as improving some of the facilities around the course, including the provision of a cover over the betting ring.

Just how massive the task was to place the track on practically a flood-free basis was that the racing surface was lifted by up to 1.7 metres in parts.

The provision of running rails both on the inside and outside, as well as using the old pipe rail for a work track inside, gives the Yeppoon Amateur Racing Club a track second to none in the country areas of Central Queensland.

It is planned to convert the current loam surface into a grass track later in the year, which will further improve its potential of developing into an extremely busy racing centre.

The honour of piloting the first winner home on the new track at the first meeting on April 8 went to the much-travelled Bill Cameron when he won on the 5/4 favourite, Storm Boot, in the Terry McPherson Maiden Handicap (1200m).

But the honours went to the Yeppoon

premier jockey, David Rewald, who won both the two-year-old events.

Both winners, Quina Girl and Haba Prince, showed a distinct liking for the surface to score clear-cut wins.

Quina Girl, a 10/9 on favourite, won the fillies class in 53.5 sec, whereas Haba Prince, which shared favouritism at even money with second placegetter, Begin Again, was .2 sec faster over the 900 metres.

Picture Book, the winner of the feature event, the Yeppoon Qualifying Division of the Foster's Country Cup (1200m) showed it was possible to win from a long way back at the home turn as she fairly rattled home to pick up the pacemaker and even money favourite, French Regent in the last stride.

Picture Book and French Regent will now contest the final of the Foster's Country Cup at Callaghan Park on Easter Monday, April 20.

Jockey Geoff Booth, who is one jockey really wrapped in the new Tyrer Park, finished the day on a winning note when he brought the 10/9 on favourite, Morlock, home in the final event, the Barry Phillips Purse Handicap (1200m).

This race was to have been run over about 1400 metres, but the distance was changed by the stewards because it was considered there was not enough area behind the start for the horses to assemble.

The naming of races after Terry McPherson and Barry Phillips was as a tribute to them for a

Tke flack the Kitimat ANYONE who has ever worked for anyone else knows it's almost fatal to go into work on your day off ... the boss can always find something for you to do. It happened this week at an establishment "somewhere between Yeppoon and the harbour". Employee wanders in to pick up . something, boss spots him and says: "Don't go, you might be able to help me."

Quick as a flash, employee replies: "That doesn't sound like me." But he got away with it ... he said it with feeling!

Eight national titles to Coast from Brisbane karate championships A STRONG contingent of 46 Central Queensland Japan Karate Association members dominated the ninth Australian Karate-Do National Titles in Brisbane from March 25-28.

As preparation for the titles team members attended a two-and-a-half day training seminar with Australian and New Zealand chief instructor, Sensei S Takahashi 6th Dan. The Capricornia team competed against 300 competitors from Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

Dominating the competition, the Capricornia team won 41 per cent of the placings, while only entering 15 per cent of the total competitors.

Publicity officer Adele Young said the team's high success rate was directly attributable to the international experience of Capricornia's chief instructor Chris Bulbrook JKA 3rd Dan. "This high quality instruction and hard, continuous training are the keys to such a high win rate," she said.

Eight first placings were won by locals in their divisions. Three students won double national titles: Brenda McDonald, White Belt Kata and Kumite; Shane McDonald, Brown Belt Boys Kata and Kumite; Adele Young, Brown Belt Girls Kata and Kumite.

"Many students from the Capricornia region have gained selection to represent Australia at the First Youth World Cup to be held at Festival,

Hall, Brisbane 1988, as a result of their performances at the National," Capricornia chief instructor Chris Bulbrook said.

Students needing special recognition are Caost residents ... Chris Stokes and Geoff Adams on attaining their Black Belts, days prior to the nationals and Keith Lea on attaining his Nidan (2nd degree Black Belt).

WAY back when the Capricorn Coast Mirror was just a dream, a bloke named Warren Nunn knew the plans but kept the secret. He couldn't help with anything but gave his best wishes and advice. When t first issue was published, "Old Baldy" an Suzy had to deliver all 6000 copies on their own. They were tired and Warren offered help. He and his wife, Lorelle, helped handroll 4500 papers then Warren helped throw them. Time has passed, Warren has moved on to greener pastures and now works as a sub-editor on the Courier-Mail.

He phoned from Brisbane this week to say he put the heading a on story about a bloke who "brown-eyed" a police officer, was caught, and went before the court.

Warren's heading? In the end, he faced the law! I reckon that's award material. To those who know him, he's spending Easter on the Coast. ❑

WHY are the best items anonymous?

Overhead prominent Coast woman talking to another women this week about some bloke she knew. "He's got bedroom eyes," she said of him. Is it a compliment? I wonder ... but I know her name, and his.

But I won't tell, no way, never!

LITTER is a problem. Usually, signs warning about litter, are, themselves, just litter on the landscape. But at Koorana Crocodile Farm there's a litter sign that certainly gets attention. Pinned to a fence separating visitors from the crocs, the sign says anyone throwing litter into the croc pens will be asked to retrieve it. That sign says it all!

IT'S EASTER ... a time of hope..

Unfortunately it's also a time of tragedy for some families because of road accidents. It often puzzles me why road safety advertising campaigns, which cost a fortune, seem to achieve so little. After all, the road toll rarely dips by any margin great enough to make people think it is no longer a problem. But, if you want to see how money can be spent on road safeti' and achieve results, just drive along Scenic Highway at night and watch the new reflectors on the side of the road light up. Those reflectors aren't cheap, but they're good. To me, they make a positive contribution to road safety. They only went in late last month (the council fitted them to the posts for the Main Roads Department) but they have been so noticeable I have heard quite a few people talking about them. That, to me, is what road safety is all about. By the way, a few were pinched within days of going up.

Probably kids knocked them off for the bicycles ... if they save a kid's life on a bike that's great, but if your kid has one tell him you'll buy him or her more if they want them. Tell the kids to leave them on the posts ... the motorists need them, too!

Please drive safely over Easter (and for the rest of the year) ... we hate writing stories about road accidents!!!
