• ABOVE: Livingstone Shire Council was visited by Sacred Heart Year seven students on Tuesday afternoon. Chairman &John Bowen raised a laugh from Mark McGrath, Roberto Grace, Gavin Kershaw and Judith Driscoll when he explained how he used the gavel to bring order to council meetings.

Roundabout on drawing board for James and Normanby Streets LIVINGSTONE Shire Council this week called for costings involved in providing a roundabout at the intersection of James, Normanby and Hill Streets ... a move that would rearrange Yeppoon Shopping Centre traffic flow.

Shire engineer Pat Murphy was told to prepare costings for consideration during coming pre-budget meetings.

The decision was made after councillors were shown two proposals to handle traffic flow at the intersection.

While only "roughs'', the two proposals clearly showed proposed traffic flow. The first

plan's biggest asset, according to Mr Murphy, was that it would be cheap to implement.

But he doubted the proposal would serve Yeppoon's long-term needs.

The roundabout proposal was met with a more positive response from councillors.

It will be more expensive but, in the preliminary sketch, showed promise of becoming an attractive addition to the shopping centre.

When describing both proposals, Mr Murphy said he had been conscious of the siting of Yeppoon Police Station and the need for police vehicles to flow quickly from the station.

Another consideration was the Cenotaph. Mr

Murphy said the roundabout appeared to handle traffic needs without any change to the cenotaph's location.

Cr Maurie Webb questioned how many parking spaceswould be lost to the roundabout and when told only one would disappear from in front of the cinema, he asked how a motorist could park in the space that had been left.

Mr Murphy said the parking space could be entered by reverse parking. Following on from this discussion, Mr Murphy questioned the need for people to park directly in front of the shop they wanted to visit.

He said in bigger cities people would be happy

In general discussion while viewing the roundabout proposal, councillors agreed- the roundabout offered the best solution for longterm traffic needs.

Cr Brian Dorey was enthusiastic. He said there had been a lot of discussion in the past regarding a mall in either Normanby Street or Hill Street and the roundabout would fit in with either plan.

Cr John Dowie moved and Cr Lloyd Webber seconded a motion to have Mr Murphy prepare costings for consideration in pre-budget discussions.

BOWEN AND MATHER IN SCREAMING MATCH A SCREAMING match erupted between Livingstone Shire chairman Cr John Bowen and Cr Glenda Mather less than an hour after the start of this month's council meeting on.

Tuesday morning.

Cr Mather started this meeting in the same way she had started every meeting since elected ... she closely questioned the minutes of the previous meeting and queried financial statements.

She is not the only one to adopt this procedure at the start of each meeting ... Cr Roy Wall often queries financial statements. Other councillors also ask questions about certain cheques that have been written, the state of the council's finances at that particular point, the amount left in various budget allocations for certain works or projects.

But Cr Mather always has more questions than any other ... and her particular requests appear to "needle" many other councillors and officers.

This week's screaming match developed after Cr Mather asked about additional provision, approved at the previous meeting, of S2000 for the chairman's car allowance.

She askedwhy this matter had been left until late in the previous meeting before being brought before the table.

Cr Bowen replied that he'd had not been aware more money would be needed until he had worked out how much would be expended in the coming months.

He had not been aware of the amount until he had "totted it up" during the meeting.

Cr Mather asked whether the extra amount would include the "Expo trip". Cr Bowen said it didn't.

She paused, then said: "I don't think the ratepayers can keep..."

Cr Bowen loudly interrupted her in mid sentence saying: "You asked about the Expo trip and I said `no, it did not'."

Cr Mather, very quietly said: "Well, OK...".

Cr Bowen again interrupted her saying: "What are you digging? What are you digging?"

Continuing, Cr Mather said: "What I'm saying is that we cannot afford, the ratepayers cannot afford to keep putting their hand into their pocket every time you overspend your allowance."

Cr Bowen immediately broke in asking: "Have you charged 50c a kilometre? Do you think 50c a kilometre is too much? If so, are you drawing it yourself on your car?"

Cr Bowen: "Right. Well at the pre-budget meeting, Cr Mather, you put up an argument that you consider the 50c a kilometre is too •much and ...".

Cr Mather shouted over the top of him that the chairman had a ceiling of 55000. Cr Bowen asked in reply whether she was drawing 50c a kilometre.

When Cr Mather replied: "I am just saying ," Cr Bowen again shouted "are you drawing your 50c a kilometre?" Cr Mather replied that he had spent his $5000, got another $880 plus another S2000. "When are we going to stop putting our hands in our pockets for your expenses?"

Cr Bowen again asked: "Are you drawing your 50c a kilometre?", to which Cr Mather replied: "To come to meetings, yes".

Cr Bowen: "And you think that's fair?"

Cr Mather: "Well that's what the council resolved...".

Cr Bowen: "No, no. Do you think that's fair?"

Cr Mather: "I didn't set it Mr Chairman...".

Cr Bowen: "If you don't think it's fair, why are you drawing it? Do you think it's fair, 50c a kilometre?"

Cr Mather: "I think it's perhaps a little overpaid ...".

Cr Bowen: "Well why are you drawing it then? Are you pocketing the money?

Cr Mather: "Are you pocketing the money?"

Cr Bowen: "Yes!" Cr Mather, quietly, said the point she was trying to make was that councillors around the table had been allocated petrol money to attend meetings. They received it in their pay.

"You were allocated up to $5000 for your petrol money, right?

"What I am trying to say is that we have a budget we have to contain. If every time you run out of petrol money, or have a problem, we just can't keep dipping our hands into the public purse to cover such costs ...".

Cr Bowen interrupted: "Cr Mather, you are just simply, deliberately, tryipg to disrupt and destruct this meeting."

Cr Mather: "I am protecting the public's money Mr Chairman. More than you can say you are doing...".

Cr Bowen: "You are using a public ploy to show that you are this innocent, transparent person protecting the public purse and all I can say Cr Mather is that that is bullshit ...".

Cr Mather shouted at him that under section 26 of the Local Government Act he must leave the table or apologise for his remark.

Cr Bowen continued over the top of her: "You are doing it deliberately ...".

Cr Brian Dorey interrupted with a point of order. He said if Cr Mather did not agree with the payment she could put in a notice of motion. Council not do anything at that meeting because it had been decided by council. "If she wants to change it she should put in a notice of motion."

Cr Bowen started to say there had been a decision of the table when Cr Mather shouted at him: "Are you going to apologise, Mr Chairman?" to which he replied: "No." He continued that council had resolved at the last budget to pay 50c a kilometre and he

♦ 59 Paint Rejuvenation $i Plus Protection $49 • Yearly Service 10 years • Guarantee

understood all other councillors had been claiming it.

He suggested if Cr Mather did not agree with it, she should move to change it in the coming budget. "That is the correct time to do it," he said.

"In the meantime you have drawn that 50c a kilometre and so has every other member, I understand, done likewise.

"The number of kilometres that I do is considerably higher than the number other members do owing to fact that I am full-time...".

Cr Mather: "You're part-time, Mr Chairman, part-time. That's what the deal was, parttime chairman. Not a full-time chairman. If you want to make it full-time that's your business but don't expect us to pay for it. I've said it before. The only point I'm making is that we cannot afford it ...".

Cr Bowen: "I am saying that the number of kilometres I have used have exceeded the amount of money that they thought was adequate to cover that."

Cr Wall broke in to say two points of order had been raised and Cr Bowen had not ruled on either of them.

Cr Bowen replied that he had upheld Cr Dorey's point of order. Cr Wall then asked if every councillor was going to be given the opportunity to speak "after" the chairman had ruled on a point of order.

Cr Bowen, who was standing, and had been, for a considerable part of the debate, said he was standing "and I think if you read the bylaws, (you'll see) that I've got the privilege of standing and interrupting any part of this meeting.

"Because I'm going to get it right straight from the start, that if any member scurrilously tries to disrupt the order of these meetings, be it on their own head.

"Now I've tolerated this for the last 12 months. I will not tolerate it any more. I have never fought back but I will fight back now.

"It's the end of the peace-keeping force and if you want to fight, you've never had one yet ... you'll get one because I will not tolerate you trying to smash this meeting up because it is of grave disadvantage to this community; there is no need for it and we all know what your game is, so just cut it out and let's get on with the meeting."

Cr Mather, on a point of order, asked: "What's my game?"

Cr Bowen: "Your game is to disrupt and destroy the normal process of democracy here at this table. For what reason, goodness only knows.

"But you are incensed with it. It oozes out of you."

The "debate" continued. Cr Bowen said if Cr Mather had specific queries she could come to the council chambers the day before the meeting and ask individual officers. This would not hold up meetings.

He said she asked questions that could be misconstrued by the media and public.

Cr Mather replied that she was not misconstruing anything, "I'm just asking reasonable questions and you're the one who's getting hostile".

Cr Bowen: "And I'll keep getting hostile if I see you doing it anymore."

Finally, the debate ended when it was moved that council move on to the next item.

How much should we pay shire chairman?

• By John and Suzy Watson HOW much should we pay someone to be the chairman of Livingstone Shire Council?

Forget who now occupies the chair. Be hunest. How much is it worth to be the chairman of Livingstone Shire Council?

It is timely to ask this question because a monumental flare-up occurred this week between chairman CrJohn Bowen and Cr Glenda Mather ... and it was over money!

Cr Bowen apparently has a $5000 car allowance and council has increased it by a further $2000 to pay the bills until the end of this financial year.

Despite what each might feel, both Cr Bowen and Cr Mather are correct.

If Cr Bowen is doing the kilometres on the ratepayers' behalf he is entitled to be reimbursed.

Also, if the council had provided 'X' dollars in the budget, the chairman should try to keep within that amount. After all, the chairman should give the lead on sticking to budgets.

But this does bring up the question of what the chairman, whoever he or she may be, is worth.

We, the ratepayers, now pay $25,000 a year for the chairman. Apparently we also pay about S7000 more for car allowance.

Is that enough? Is it the sort of money that would attract a top person away from a privately-owned business, from a well-paid job in private enterprise or in the government ... or back from a comfortable retirement?

Don't think the chairman can be both a successful business person and chairman, or a wage earner and chairman ... there's just too much to do as chairman.

Cr Mather said Cr Bowen was only part-, time ... that he had chosen to make the job fulltime. That may be so ... but at the next elections ratepayers are likely to expect a full-time chairman.

So, what's the job worth?

The chairman is supposed to be the top dog at council. The chairman is supposed to direct the shire clerk and other officers.

Well, on 525,000 a year, plus say S7000 for a car, the chairman is in the position of directing staff who pull anywhere between S60,000 and S80,000 a year ... and have the free use of a council car.

The officers probably have their phones paid for by council (they have to take afterhours calls but probably are expected to pay for private calls).

Meanwhile, the chairman, and any councillor, also expects to take, and make, after-hours calls.

So, is the chairman worth as much as the shire clerk? Or as much as the engineer? Perhaps the accountant?

Look at it another way. The chairman has regular dealings with the State Member of Parliament and the Federal Member of Parliament ... is the chairman worth as much as they receive (about 555,000 a year plus expenses)?

If not ... why not? Aren't the jobs similar?

Aren't the hours much the same?

Finally, how much do you earn? Would you swap your job for the chairman's? If you would, would you be getting more than you now earn, or less?

Think about it and, if you feel so inclined, put pen to paper and send us a letter to the editor. We are prepared to carry pen names on this issue, but we must know who wrote the letter. So please include your name and address so we may check with the letter-writer.

The council will soon be deliberating the next budget ... and you can bet the chairman's salary will be a topic for debate.

Have your say and give the council guidance.

Who knows, we might all feel the chairman should do the job for nothing ... for the pure satisfaction the job offers.

But then, there is an expression that you get what you pay for!

INFORMATION CENTRE HELPING COAST SKILL-SHARE YOUTH THE Capricorn Coast Tourist Information Centre will assist in developing youth potential on the Coast.

Some students involved in the Skill Share programme will attend the centre during the new few weeks as part of their training in the various facets of the tourism industry.

Staff volunteers at the centre will assist students in acquiring public relations skills and a grounding in tourism activities on the Coast.

In a similar vein Yeppoon secondary colleges students will be given the opportunity of attending the centre for work experience in July.

Two St Ursula's College students have ap-

plied to the Capricorn Coast Tourist Organisation for work experience.

"Yeppoon High and St Brendan's will be contacted to see if they are interested," CCTO chairman Brian Hooper said.

Planning is also currently in hand for the

Council wants prices on new integrated computer system LIVINGSTONE Shire Council is close to spending about S250,000 on a new computer system which will apparently integrate all departments.

Councillors resolved this week to call tenders as soon as possible so that firm prices can be discussed at pre-budget meetings.

While no figure was mentioned during the computer debate, shire chairman Cr John Bowen said during a later debate that council was looking toward paying about S250,000 for a new computer system.

The fact that councilwas contemplating a new system was no secret ... shire accountant Denis Murphy has been sent to computer seminars with a view to getting details on the latest technology.

But with the moment of decision moving closer, some councillors appeared hesitant.

Mr Murphy told Tuesday's meeting he had attended the recent National Computer Power Conference and took the opportunity of seeing systems at Maroochy Shire Council and Caloundra City Council.

"On site inspections of systems does give a betterview of how the systems operate and also any failings encountered by the operators," he said.

"As you are aware, (Livingstone Shire) council's mainframe computer is due for replacement and replacement should be effected as soon as possible in the 1989-90 financial year.

"Because of the lead time involved in going out to tender, it would be advisable to go out to tender as soon as possible."

Mr Murphy suggested council should call tenders for a Total Integrated System, where all systems interact and evolve from a central point.

He suggested calling tenders at the end of May, closing at the end of June, with decision at the end of July.

"The advantage of doing it this way would be that we would know the estimated cost when

framing the 1989-90 budget," he said.

Crs Ellen Cogill and Brian Dorey moved and seconded that tenders be called. Mr Murphy was asked for a "guestimate" of the price.

He said he could not give a price but reminded council it had provided 5160,000 toward the cost in a reserve fund.

Shire chairman Cr John Bowen said council was not going to be able to buy a computer system for 5160,000 ... it was after a "total information system".

Cr Ron Landsberg wanted to know what had happened with the last one council had bought (the present computer).

Mr Murphy said that computer had been bought at a time when council had had no "exposure to computers".

Cr Bowen said it was not a "disaster". It was paying for itself in the way it handled council's finances. Rate notices were going out a month earlier because of the computer.

Mr Murphy told councillors they had to plan for the 1990s ... council should not just be "surviving in the '90s but thriving in the '90s".

Cr Mather said council would only get out of a computer what it put into it. She suggested council should get advice from the Local Government Department about framing the actual tender so that council bought the right computer.

Mr Murphy said he was in touch with the department "all the time". When Cr Mather persisted that she felt council should get advice from the department, Cr John Dowie said Mr Murphy was going to use the computer and he should be able to evaluate it.

New bus stop A NEW bus stop has been arranged by Livingstone Shire Council for children who are bussed to Yeppoon schools.

Cr Maurie Webb said this week that on the budget annual inspections he asked councillors and staff to view the school bus pick-up near the Ampol Service Station in Park Street.

"As a result the Shire clerk was requested to notify the respective school principals and bus conveyance committees of the altered place for picking up children," Cr Webb said.

"A bus seat has been placed near Yeppoon Showground gate and from next Monday it will be the pick-up point.

"Youngs bus service will be requested to use the same place."

Cr Webb said the decision had to be confirmed at Livingstone Shire Council's May meeting.

"With the children now walking down William Street to the bus this must be a great improvement from a safety aspect," he said.

"The bridge over the creek near the showground will be replaced in the coming financial year and this will remove another shocking traffic danger area."

He said the Braithwaite Street and Park Street areas from the junction of Adelaide Park Road are "almost a disaster area waiting for a tragedy to happen".

"Plans arc being drawn for a sensible junction opposite Yeppoon Bowling Club aswell. There are pretty big dollars involved in all these jobs and a balance on spending around the rest of the town has to be kept."

the 170 people attending Tuesday's, monthly social of Yeppoon Pensioners League were visitors from Brisbane, Rockhampton, Mt Morgan and Emu Park.

The visitors were prominent in the list of artists who contributed to an afternoon of music, song and dance.

Brisbane soloist Pam Schafer teamed with Rockhampton dancer Terry Bradshaw (appropriately dressed) to present .'Pearly Shells' and as an encore Pam received vociferous applause for her rendition of 'Ave Maria'.

Rockhampton visitor Maud Milford gave a superb exhibition of whistling. She whistled her way into the hearts of socialgoers with 'Wonderful Mother of Mine' and 'Colonel Bogey'.

She was accompanied by Lydia Lavelle who also was accompanist for the singing group from Rockhampton Pensioners League, who rendered a bracket of six songs.

Making her debut as a soloist at a Yeppoon Pensioners concert was Beverly Smyth, who with Lynda Leach as accompanist, rendered 'Mademoiselle De Paree'.

Emu Park Pensioners League social compere Stan Nelson, one of the town's best soloists, impressively rendered 'I Sang a Song of Love to a Tree' and 'My Woman, My Wife'. He was accompanied on the piano by wife Win. Yeppoon's assistant compere Phyl Rumpf again pleased with her bracket of 'That's What God made Mothers For' and 'Somewhere a Voice is Calling. Entertainer member Maureen Dinsdale rendered 'Tenderly' and 'My Heart Cries for You'.

Two appearances were made by The Entertainers singing group and conductress Lynda Leech accompanied herself when she sang 'When Hearts are Young' and 'When I Grow too Old to Dream'.

Soloists Ruby Harris, Sarah Hall, Alf Marcombe, Bill Shuttlewood (Yeppoon), Jack Flanagan, Alex Bacon (Emu Park), raconteur Joe Mcintyre, instrumentalists Tony Ceff (violin and saxophone), Arthur Lawn (saxophone) and George Cooper (mouth organ) contributed to one of the year's best socials.

Pattie Gambier was accompanist for the community singing and joined with Tony Ceff, Arthur Lawn and Norm Lewis playing for the monte carlo which was won by Rockhampton couple Enid Tudman and Fran McMillan.

Birthday greetingswere extended by compere Marge Cornell to George Madsen, Kev West, Nancy Devantier, Lorna McIntyre, Lil Young and Dot Tengbom.

Lucky door prizes were won by Mrs Quinn, Mary Richards, Iris Feres, Joyce Watson (Rockhampton), Mary Buxton (Gracemere) and Sarah Hall and Frances Biles (Yeppoon).

Dick and Betty Tyrer gave two fruit and vegetable trays and these were won by Bev Smyth (Cooee Bay) and Alice Eisles (Rockhampton). A third tray went to Maud Milford of Rockhampton. A fourth prize of tea and sugar went to Gracemere's Mary Buxton.

Before the start of the social those present stood in silence as a mark of respect for former member Nick Darcy who died in Toowoomba last Friday.

Capricorn Coast Mirror May 12 - May 18, 1989 - 7 FATHER Tom Martin left the Capricorn Coast Catholic Parish in December 1979 and is now working as a Columban missionary in Peru.

He and Fr Rom Hayes founded a new parish in December 1987 in a shantytown, Canto Grande, on the outskirts of Lima.

Canto Grande's population is 60,000. The people have to buy water from water trucks, inflation is up to 2000 per cent, 1988 industrial production fell 14.2 per cent and wages in January 1989 have 30 per cent of the purchasing power of December, 1987.

Father Martin has had difficulty receiving any goods or money and the Columbans have arranged a system through Australian diplomatic channels.

A group has been set up on the Capricorn Coast - Friends of the Columbans - to arrange fundraising to help the people of Canto Grande through Fr Martin.

"It isn't any use sending goods or money direct to Fr Martin," organiser Annette Van Gestel said. "We have arranged for any money raised to go to the Columbans and then they send it on to him."

The Friends of the Columbans in conjunction with Amnesty International have arranged an exclusive showing of Babette's Feast at the City Cinema Centre on Sunday, May 21 at 530pm.

Drinks and savouries will be served after the film and the cost is $12 per person and a concession of $8 is available.

Bookings can be made through Yeppoon Travel in Savemore Centre (no commission will be charged), Denise Christensen or Annette Van Gestel.

If anyone would like to donate and not attend the screening, contact Denise or Annette for a deposit slip. Arrangements have been made with a local bank for donations to be made, on special deposit slips, which will be then forwarded to the Columbans.

Megan and Steve Anderson had a new son on Saturday. He hasn't been named yet because they have been too busy to sit down and make a decision. I know the feeling. We called Rhodes 'it' for six weeks and sometimes I think he wished we had kept it that name. *** ST URSULA'S College Parents and Friends Association meeting is on Tuesday, May 16 at 7.30pm. *** YEPPOON Pensioners League and Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club members were saddened when it was known that long-time member of both organisations, Nick Darcy, had died in Tcowoomba last Friday.

His funeral moved from the Lourdes Home Chapel at his cwn request. With wife, Glad, Nick had been an inmate of the home for the past three years.

In the Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club, Nick had held the position of treasurer, a post he held from the time the club changed its name from St Andrew's Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club on July 20, 1970, to Yeppoon Indoor Bowling Club. He remained in that position until the club built and moved into its present playing arena in Yeppoon Showground.

Mr Darcy was a member of the Yeppoon Pensioners League for all of his 16 years retirement in Yeppoon. He and Glad were regular attenders at league meetings and they regularly attended all Central Queensland socials. It was fitting that all 170 pensioners who attended last Tuesday's monthly social of Yeppoon Pensioners League stood in silence to the memory of a former member who always enjoyed district social afternoons.

Had he lived to August 13, Mr Darcy would have reached the age of 92. Glad will continue to live at Lourdes Home, Spring Street, Toowoomba.

I said "Now Sue, you told me That you were going back And so I gave you a 'mud map' to help you find the track.

I WOULD like to comment about the amount of pollution on the Main Beach.

On April 14 class 2/3 FM went on a beach clean-up to Barwell's Creek. I was very disgusted because of the amount of the different types of rubbish that was just dumped on the ground like styrofoam, glass and plastic.

I would like you to know that I don't like the sight of rubbish. I hope you don't either.

There have been a number of occasions where letter writers have received the familiar knock-at-the-door or the phone call from a member on the `mat'.

I do hope this tactic does not gag those who may wish to voice an opinion in the future - we know how news gets around.

And speaking of 'gag' - the Local Government Act springs to mind. If Cr Dorey recognises the 'requirement of the Act', and I'm certain he does, then he may be able to tell me the section which allows air-fares for members - without prior approval from the table.

Ratepayers don't want your pity Cr Dorey they want your respect. Otherwise how do you propose to adequately represent them?

I hope we never hear the word 'quality' again - unless it's used in conjunction with water or roadworks.

- Cr Glenda Matter PO Box 5186, Rockhampton Mail Centre.

Disappointment from Cr Mather I WAS disappointed to see Cr Dorey react so strongly over questions posed by P Watson in relation to "quality people". (Capricorn Coast Mirror April 21-27, 1989). • Cr Dorey's public remarks against one who dared to voice his opinion or observations leaves much to be desired.

For one to publicly voice pity for another human being, whether it be due to his circumstances, his appearance or his thoughts, will never be at peace with himself.

I'm sure most members welcome honest criticism and most respond in a reasonable manner.

If not, then they may be either over-sensitive or perhaps consider themselves a little too elevated for such. Either way, they might like to reassess their positions.

I WOULD like to comment on the untidiness of the beach at the moment.

I was disgusted with the amount of plastics, broken glass and other pollution on the beach on April 14, 1989 when my class and I went on a beach clean-up.

If people cared about our environment they would put their rubbish in the bin.

- Pauline Arnold, Year 3, age 8, Yeppoon State Pinnaly School.

Comment 3 I WOULD like to comment about the amount of pollution on the main beach at Yeppoon on April 14, 1989.

Our class, 2/3 FM, went on a beach clean-up to Barwell's Creek. There were lots of plastics, styrofoam and broken glass littered everywhere and also there were lots of dead fish marooned up near the sand dunes.

We care about our environment. Why don't other people care about it? If people would care and pick up their rubbish and put it in the bin our world would be a cleaner and safer place to live.

Nursing home plans available for Unspection at council chambers PLANS for the State Government Nursing Home at Yeppoon were unveiled on Friday by Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton at Livingstone Shire Council chambers.

They will be available for public inspection for one week.

Mr Hinton said that in line with the commitments made by former Health Minister Leisha Harvey the Rockhampton Hospital Board will receive and consider submissions from interested organisations with a view to improvement within the available budget.

"If no alterations are made, then project managers J M Kelly Ltd should start construction in the next two to three weeks with contract completion time in mid-November," Mr Hinton said.

"The unit will be fully air-conditioned with nine modules of four units surrounding interior courtyards with an additional four units along the front of the building.

"The dining and recreational area is between the accommodation building and the hospital.

It will include a therapy room, hairdressing room and other facilities. The complex will be joined to the hospital with a covered walkway.

"The close proximity of the complex to Yeppoon Hospital is a tremendous advantage."

He said it is expected the Rockhampton Hospital Board will allocate an additional aree doctor hours per week over and above the normal hours of the hospital doctor, who will be available full time.

"This allocation is at the normal ratio allocated to nursing homes," he said.

Up to 21 nursing staff will be employed to provide shifts 24 hours per daywith a maximum

of five nurses on duty at any one time.

"The plans promise a modern comfortable and very functional facility that will bring a new dimension to the quality of life for our aged and frail on the Capricorn Coast."

Planner addresses Coast university YEPPOON Town Hall was the venue for the University of the Third Age, Yeppoon Branch, forum on alternative living for the aged.

About 30 people attended the Monday morning forum, including visitors from Rockhampton.

U3A chairman Cr Mike Prior chaired the meeting and welcomed guests.

"For the benefit of newcomers Cr Prior gave a short address on the origin and aims of the U3A," publicity officer Pat Andersen said.

Guest speaker Livingstone Shire Council town planner Scott Stewart dealt with the changing needs in home styles from first homebuyer to the aging groups.

After morning tea, social worker Anne Czekanski covered the range of services, aid and helping aids available to the aged and afflicted.

Bethany director of nursing Sister Maureen Hanrahan gave a comprehensive coverage on the care of the aged and their needs within jhe structure of nursing homes.

June 5 is the date set for the next forum which will be used to assess the number of people in the community who would be interested in participating in U3A.

Wright's $100,000 beach erosion offer another phantom Hinton THE offer by Member for Capricornia Keith Wright to the Livingstone Shire Council of S100,000 to assist restoration of Yeppoon Main Beach has proved to be another phantom Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton said this week.

"Mr Wright promised the Livingstone Shire Council $100,000, to be obtained from the National Estate Grant from the Commonwealth Government to the State," he said.

"At Mr Wright's suggestion I pursued the matter with Premier Mike Ahern. Mr Ahern replied in a letter dated May 4, 1989 that there is no basis on which the Yeppoon beach, buildings and public areas could be considered historic buildings or the beach considered National Estate within the criteria of National Estate grants.

"Mr Wright's 5100,000 offer is no offer at all.

It is simply a red herring to cover up the fact that the Federal Government will contribute nothing towards beach protection works.

"I cannot understand why Mr Wright did not just say he could not assist, rather than claiming we should have a 'three tiers of Government'

r

approach to beach erosion and then making an offer of substantial finance that is no offer at all," he said.

"The situation at Yeppoon Main Beach is critical. The sea wall is being undermined in front of the surf lifesaving club to the point where the wall will eventually collapse, exposing the clubhouse to the full force of the sea."

The responsibility for beach restoration work lies with Livingstone Shire Council with a State Government subsidy of 25 per cent available for all capital and maintenance expenditures.

"It is up to council when it will tackle this problem, but there will certainly not be the promised 5100,000 from Mr Wright unless he can convince the Australian Heritage Commission that Yeppoon Main Beach should be registered as National Estate."

Singers offer Endless Praise

YEPPOON Showground will come alive to the sound of the music on Thursday, May 18 when the Australian Gospel singing group Endless Praise appears live.

The group has performed throughout Australia, New Zealand, Tahiti and North and South America and was last on the Capricorn Coast in 1987.

It is a full-time self-supporting Christian gospel group. Endless Praise is on what it calls an 'endless' tour sharing the gospel through music that appeals to all ages.

The group will appear in the refreshment pavilion at Yeppoon Showground from 7.30pm. Admission is free and a collection will be taken after the show.

The music covers a wide range of gospel styles from traditional hymns to upbeat praise medleys.

Endless Praise has performed in the Sydney Opera House and the Los Angeles Convention Center and has recorded four albums and two music videos.

The group travels in its own bus, but is billeted in each town.

The Endless Praise concert is supported by Capricorn Coast churches.

Resort hosting food festival THE Festival of Fine Foods and Salon Culinaire for chefs and apprentice chefs will be staged for the second time at Capricorn Iwasaki Resort.

Judging will take place on Saturday, July 1 between 10am and 4pm.

Resort executive chef Otmar Scheer is expecting a larger number of entrants than last year when 80 chefs participated.

"The Salon Culinaire is now a major competitive event in the tourist and hospitality industry," Mr Scheer said. "It is also an exhibition venue where the creation and display of fine foods can be experienced.

"Highly specialised and respected chefs from leading Queensland resorts and hotels will form the judging panel and it is most pleasing that people of such calibre give their time to judge an event such as this."

A special evening of fine dining will enable visitors to taste different dishes from all over the world will be staged to complement the festival exhibitions.

The 1989 Salon Culinaire will comprise four sections: food sculpture, desserts, new creations and picnic hamper.

Hosts required HOST families are urgently needed on the Capricorn Coast to care for two overseas students from June, 1989 for 12 months.

The two students, through the Education Foundation, have been allocated to the Capricorn Coast and will study at St Ursula's College and Yeppoon State High School if suitable host families are found.

The Education Foundation is one of the largest student exchange organisations in the world. It is dedicated to furthering international understanding and cultural exchange.

Magaly Garcia, 17, is from Reynusa, Mexico and has been accepted to study in Year 11 at St Ursula's College. She speaks Spanish and English, enjoys aerobics and dance and likes animals. Magaly hopes for a career in communication science Kenji Ohkurano, 18, is from Urawa, Japan andwill complete Year 12 thisyear at Yeppoon State High School. He is interested in basketball, motor bike riding and skiing. Kenji hopes to learn marine sports while in Australia.

Education Foundation area co-ordinator Del Svendsen said the students had to have host families confirmed before June 9.

Contact Del, 39 6257, if you are interested in hosting either student ... she has detailed information about them.

Crab hot-line CENTRAL Queenslanders observing illegal fishing or crabbing activities can now ring a toll-free hotline for immediate action against offenders.

Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton said when people are unable to immediately contract the Boating and Fisheries Patrol, or do not know the number, they can now 008 017116 to the Queensland Fish Management Authority to have immediate investigation of their complaints.

"Illegal fishing, especially illegal netting of our waterways, is a serious threat to our fisheries resources and the Government is determined to take every effort to prosecute offenders," Mr Hinton said.

"The time has passed when not `dobbing' on your mate was the thing to do. Our fisheries resources are a fragile community resource which deserves protection from the irresponsible actions of a small number of people."

Guides' Hobby-Horse Derby wins solid support from Yeppoon

BUSINESSES, clubs and Capricorn Coast residents have again demonstrated their community awareness in supporting the Keppe, Coast Girl Guides.

"We have been once again overwhelmed with the generosity and participatory spirit of the Coast people," Hobby Horse Derby organiser Gwen McGregor said.

"Not only do they support our fundraising efforts, but they seem pleased to be part of it.

"It isn't often that would you find so many grown people wanting to hobble themselves (or a nominee) and hop around Beaman Park on a wooden stick-horse. But this is what happens in the cause of raising funds for the Keppel Coast Girl Guides."

These valiant 'stick-horsemen and women' gather other people, friends, associates and passersby to sponsor them in the form of a cash donation.

The money raised is for the Keppel Coast Girl Guides and is the once-a-year appeal for the funds which are necessary for the association to continue operating.

But it is fun for everyone involved.

On Saturday, May 27, Beaman Park is turned into a country race track. 'Races' are held during the morning, providing entertainment among stalls selling a variety of craft wares, hamburgers and other food, raffles, a cent sale.

The 4R0 Big Band, based in the rotunda, helps create a carnival atmosphere in between race-calling and results.

John 'Cannel Dundee' Richardson is riding `Sapphire' for Yeppoon Kindergarten and will provide his camel, also named 'Sapphire', for rides in Beaman Park during the morning's festivities.

Brian Gough has indicated he will arrive in time from Brisbane to call the races ... so riders and spectators will enjoy the same hilarity as in past years.

Early indications are that this year's event will be at least the equal of previous years with 59 nominations. All the 'tried and noted riders' are turning out again, and there are some exciting new prospects lining up, so take note of the date and go to Beaman Park from 9am.

Coast resident at Baha'i talks TONY Perkins of Yeppoon represented the Baha'i CommLnity of Livingstone, Mackay, Pioneer and Sara Shires at the 55th National Baha'i Conferenc:... at the Australian National University from April 27 to 30.

Mr Perkins said 95 delegates and 300 observers represented 420 Baha'i communities throughout Australia.

"The main purpose of the convention was the election of the National Spiritual Assembly, the administrative body responsible for the affairs of the Australian Baha'i Community," Mr Perkins said.

Those elected to serve on the 1989 National Spiritual Assembly: Dr D Chittleborough, Mr Sein Yeang Chew, Dr J Davidson, Joy Vohradsky, Sitarih Alai, Judy Hassal, Irini Jones, David Podger and Peter De Vogel.

"Highlight of the convention was a message from the Universal House of Justice, the world governing body of the Baha'i Faith, which has its seat in Haifa, Israel.

"The message conveyed optimism for the emergence of world peace and unity of nations.

Delegates consulted on issues including the environment and the need for a global approach to all major environmental problems."

Other topics discussed included social and economic development and unity in diversity within a multicultural society.

The Baha'i Faith is an independent world religion dedicated to the reconciliation of nations through the elimination of all forms of racial, religious and social prejudices.

Mr Perkins said the Baha'i Faith was established in Australia in 1920. If you are interested, contact Tony, 39 7569.

Promotion ideas THE Capricorn Coast and Emu Park Chamber of Commerce and the Capricorn Coast Tourist Organisation will be sent questionnaires from Livingstone Shire Council.

The questionnaires were sent to council from the Centre for the Development of Entrepreneurs.

The information was discussed by council's Tourism and Development Steering Committee which found it contained many useful ideas on how to promote economic growth in the area.

Pearce says Ahern government wishy-washy on foreign investment ALP candidate for Broadsound Jim Pearce believes the Ahern Government has been wishy-washy on the question of foreign investment.

"It is not good enough to favour one nationality and not others when it comes to foreign investment. The present government is wishywashy on this subject," Mr Pearce said.

"As a Labor candidate I welcome foreign

investment in Queensland whenever it can be established that such investment is mutually beneficial.

"A Goss Labor Government will establish a Foreign Land Ownership Register for Queensland. We will do so because Australians need to know the Queensland public interest is being served.

"In order to' maintain affordable real estate for Australians we will enforce current foreign

investment review board guidelines banning acquisition of developed real estate," he said.

"We are not opposed to foreign investment but while we would reject purchases by foreign interests of rural properties on the condition that significant improvements should be made."

Mr Pearce said that in oth,:r areas of industry such as the manufacturing and service sector a

Labor government would encourage foreign investment.

"Particularly where it resulted in the expansion of our manufacturing capacity exports and the generation of greater employment.

"The Labor approach to foreign investment was consistent with the overall economic policy which was directed toward the promotion of the well-being of the people of Queensland."

Yeppoon members were pleased with their effort: Joan Beasley's team won one and Ivy McNamara's team won another.

EMUS MISS SUPPORTERS AGAINST DIEHARDS

• By Jeff Quigley THE mighty Emu Park Emus suffered a defeat at the hands of rugby league competition favourites Etna Creek Diehards on the weekend.

Etna Creek Prison team has a lot of things going for it that make it harder than usual for visiting teams: their games this year are to be played on the inside of the goal and that rules out any team taking along its supporters.

The game started as expected with both packs of forwards trying to dominate. Emu Park fiveeight Kirk Doak decided the best way to wear down the bigger Diehard forwards was to turn them around at every opportunity. This ploy worked well and it became evident they were running low in the gas department.'

With the Park tackling tenaciously the chances started to appear. Park's first scoring opportunity came eight minutes into the game.

Emus made a spectacular raid deep inside the opponents quarter and looked set to score a certain try when the Diehards halfback threw caution to the wind and plucked an intercept out of the air and turn defence into attack. He was brought down on the halfway line by fullback Brims.

The Emus fought their way back into the Diehards quarter and it was at this time Kirk Doak decided to get the scoreboard ticking over when he piloted over a neat field goal.

It was a rousing display by the Parkies as the Diehards have steamrolled every team they have played this year by 28 points or more.

The defence had no answer to the bullocking Diehard prop and captain, who was able to barge his way over from 20 metres out to score the first try of the game. He failed to convert his own try.

With the score at 4-1 down Ginger Slotosch decided he would get into the action and post a fourpointer. He moved swiftly into dummy half and was able to scurry over before the defence could drag him back. With a successful Kirk Doak conversion the Park had established a 7-4 lead.

Unfortunately for Emus the Diehards introduced a giant of a man into the second row at the break. He was a real mountain and he ran like Ben Johnson. The big fella stamped his control on the game when he steamrolled several Park forwards and was able to offload to the fullback, who scooted in under the black dot to give the Diehards back the lead.

With a successful conversion the scoreboard now read 10-7. An injury to Gavin Warwick forced him from the field. Jan Slotosch was given his first chance to play in the red and white of Emu Park and he performed admirably. Unfortunately for his brother Ginger, it was a different story as he had succumbed to a bout of blurred vision and had to be replaced by Shane O'Mara.

With the Diehards on the rampage Emu Park themselves wanting when they had two players down seeking treatme With the Diehards on the rampage Emu Park found itself wanting with two players down seeking treatment. With additional room the big centre was able to bust his way over out wide to score another try for the Creek.

With a top conversion from the sideline the score was 16-7. Referee Meredith caught the Park forwards inside the five and had no hesitation in awarding a penalty to the prison 20 metres out and right in front.

With the easy kick Diehards increased their lead to 11 points. Indicative of their performance Park bounded right back and applied pressure to the Creek team.

Diehards finally cracked when big Kent Svendsen barged over close to the ruck to score a try in his long awaited comeback match.

With Doak adding the extras Emus were back in the game. With only minutes remaining Park launched its last attack. Unfortunately a

pass went to ground and from the ensuing scrum Creek swung it quickly out to the blindside winger who displayed blistering speed to touchdown in the corner right on fulltime.

The conversion kick was unsuccessful and the final score ran out a creditable 22 points to 13.

Emus play Yeppoon Seagulls on Sunday at Browne Park, Rockhampton. The supporters bus leaves the Pine Beach at noon.

A GRADE SQUASH

CAPRICORN Coast A grade squash teams Odds and Ends and Bits and Pieces remain locked together in the lead after both teams scored four points this week.

Odds and Ends scored their four points at the expense of Professionals with Andrew Dowie being the only successful Professional. Andrew performed well to defeat Danny Tanks in four.

Ray Campbell and Ellen Farr celebrated their return to A grade after a brief sojourn in B grade with good solid performances. Ray defeated Cane Murphy in five while Ellen lost narrowly 7-9 in the fifth to the very wily Chris Callard.

Ellen overcame a slow start to fight back in the third from match ball down to win it 10-9 and the fourth 9-2.

Greg Pitt maintained improved control to defeat Leon Malone in four. Chris Briggs stuck to his game plan in a match of seesawing fortunes to win against Joe Foat in five.

Glen Evans contributed to Secret Weapons victory over Saints and Sinners two rubbers each, nine games to seven with an on-going good performance to defeat Denis Etheridge in four.

Weather depressing bowlers YEPPOON Bowls Club members feel the weather has a definite down on lawn bowls this year and that feeling was re-inforced when Sunday's play was washed out.

Games director Roy Graff managed to play 14 competition games for the week and a couple of those were privately arranged games on Wednesday morning.

The district pairs representatives this year are Frank Birkett and Terry Woodbridge.

In the final they met and defeated Tom Roos and Frank O'Brien 22-18. The scores were pretty even throughout and when the afternoon tea bell went the board read 12 all on 12 ends ... it was the start of another ball game.

From a lead of 15-14 Terry and Frank scored a three single and two to put them in front 2114 with two ends to play. Even though they scored a four on the second last Tom and Frank could not make up the leeway.

Another final was played, this time in the Veterans, and Bill Roberts was the winner from Ken Moore 25-18. Bill scored three and stayed on that figure for seven ends while Ken took his total to 15. Ken scored a three to make him 18 and did not score again.

The turn-up of the week was the defeat of two A graders by two C graders. Tom O'Sullivan and Norm Richards, 29, won from Harry McNamara and Roy Graff Snr, 11.

"Harry's at it again, but give him his due, he offered me a position as deckhand," the publicity officer said.

Norm and Tom were never headed, leading 71, 14-7 to finish 20-11.

Kev Thompson played with Roy Graff jnr as a sub for Barry Atkinson against Cliff Martin and Clarrie Hinton and made the latter work

hard for their 23-20 win. The score was 10 all on 10, then Cliff and Clarrie seemed to take charge but dropped a five to be down 18-15.

Clarrie and Cliff finished the stronger.

Ricki Ziebicki, Ken Moore and Peter Brown proved too strong for Gerhart Beilharz, Frazer Freeman and Graham McCosker winning 2615.

Bert Rail, Alan Saxby and Reg Gibbins scored a runawaywin, 37-13, over Brian Duffie, Peter Cowie and Norm Myler.

Don Goody and Tony Ryan took Ces Redinger and Tom O'Sullivan with them in the graded fours and put up a good effort to reach 15-23 against the more experienced Kev Wass, Alan Atkinson, Harry Maher and Eric Austin.

Ray Campbell showed he is still a force in the district singles when he defeated Brendan Croese 25-18. Eric Austin is considered a good singles player but he was stretched by Bob Bird before getting up 25-21.

Brendan Croese did not have a good weekend, he led 20-17 from Tom Roos but Toni finished on top 25-20.

Fred Baker was never headed in his bout with Reg Gibbins winning 27-13. Arnie Petersen, who has caused a couple of upsets, had to take second place to Frank Birkett 25-19 in their encounter.

Alan King performed better this time making 17 before Frank Whiteley scored 25. Tony Ryan was another to register a good win 26-12 at the expense of Arthur Atcheson.

The feathers on Wednesday went to Brian Kearney, Arthur Atcheson and Norm Myler and they scored a massive 21 points with a margin 34. They played a bloke whose name 1 can't spell, Gordon McKenzie and Harry Maher.

Smith's team champions SKIP Col Smith and his team - Kath Cliffe and Basil Buttsworth- were champions after play on Sunday at Emu Park Bowls Club.

They each took home a large fish donated by Ken Sinclair. Runners up were Mary Peacock, Hazel Dingwell and Wilf Gibson.

Despite the inclement weather the green was full and bowlers had a good day. Ken was delighted with the response.

During the afternoon, president Frank van Gest el presented super veterans badges to Col Smith and Wilf Gibson and veterans badge to Glen Kluver.

In the men's competitions this week Basil Buttsworth, Col Pearson, Harold Goodger and Lew Tickner defeated Keith Miller, Allan Evans, Glen Kluver and Wilf Gibson, 24-20 to take out the club fours final. It was an exciting game with good bowling from everyone. • Trophies for social bowling this week: Sunday, April 30, Rhoda Maud, Pearl Curry, Bob Maud, John Aitken; Wednesday, Edith Gibson, Esme Johnson, Wilf Gibson; Saturday, Pearl Curry, Des Hoare.

• ABOVE: Cap Coast mini rugby union under 8s played theirfirst at 'home game' on Saturday against Cities. Pictured are: Drew Mulphv with the ball, Grant Western and Brett Cranny. In the background are some Coast spectators: David Timbs, Cooee Park caretaker Roy and Don Knowles.

NON-STOP MINI RUGBY GOOD GAME TO SEE CAPCOAST'S inaugural home game of mini rugby union took place at Cooee Bay field on Saturday when the under 8s played Rockhampton Cities.

Both sides thrilled the crowd with an entertaining exhibition of non-stop rugby.

Cities had the advantage of an eight point lead at half time after scoring four tries and two conversions. At under 8 level, tryscorers attempt drop-kick conversions from in front of the posts.

During the first half Sam Bongers ran in three tries while Nicholas Craig and Grant Western

made inroads into Cities' territory.

Although the second half was a low scoring affair, there was plenty of action. Capcoast's commitment and style in defence ensured Cities were not allowed in for another try.

Midway through the half Capcoast went on the attack through Brett Cranny and Craig Hackney befor.:s. Sam Bongers found the gap once again to score under the posts.

The drop kick sailed over the uprights and the gap in the scoreline closed to Cities 20, Capcoast 18.

Play continued to seesaw from end-to-end.

The final minute of play was a spectacular finale to the game.

Drew Murphy brought down Cities best ball runner centimetres from the line in a cover tackle which would have made a'n Australian lock forward feel proud. The ensuing loose ball was picked up by Ben Newman who ran all of 40 metres down the sideline before being brought down 20 metres from Cities line.

Full time sounded and Cities 20 defeated Capcoast 18 in a good game of running rugby.

Capcoast meet Mt Morgan under 8s tomorrow morning at Colts field.

Swans down Parkana to remain undefeated in Rules fixtures

• By Jay Blake SWANS finished the first round of Aussie Rules home and away fixtures undefeated when the team demoralised Parkana ... the Coast's nearest rival.

After giving the Demons a four goal start, Yeppoon took total control of the game and if it hadn't been for the dreaded miss, miss, misses in front of goal the winning margin could have been anything.

Although Steve Burns was jubilant after the victory, he was worried by the poor start, especially the number of handling mistakes when under pressure and when not.

There were more than a few players who tended to panic early on and if it hadn't been for some fine individual efforts the Swans might well have spotted Parkana a bigger start.

Perhaps some players should be equipped with blinkers as they are finding it hard to go on anything like a direct line forward.

Dave Chapman was the pick of the defence

• CALL IN TODAY •

with his excellent smothering and fearless tack-, ling.

'Iron Man' Mark Taylor has slowly been running himself into form and he showed last Saturday he was close to his best and let's not forget Mark Lacey, who by the end of the game had chalked up 30 possessions.

The halfback line was the catalyst of the win.

Tim Mynott was given the job of roving after an early injury to Grant Boyd and his toughness and desperate play around the packs could easily have him roving for some time to come.

Nick Basham gave his opponents an aerial exhibition and Jason Jamieson added another string to his bow, marking strongly all around the ground.

The coach organised matters from the middle, while 'Drover' Lauritz will never go into a game owing money to an umpire again.

Yeppoon 16.28.124 def Parkana 8.8.56. Best players: Chapman, Lacey, Munn, Taylor, Basham. Goals: Munn 7, Chapman 3, Mynott 2.

Reserves cor. ,inued their work up the compe-

tition table with another, resounding win and even with three late withdrawals never let the Demons have sniff.

Once more the side was able to keep the opposition scoreless, this time for half the game.

'Harpo' Bain returned to the ground where he made his A grade debut and turned in an Al performance. Big bad 'Moose' McGrath-was the side's best, nicking all day and doing all the hard big man work won out.

Aspiring A grader Dwayne Roberts again was in fine touch as was evergreen Rob Masek.

Sean Chamberlain is turning into a hardy player and his effort last week certainly turned a few heads. Bret Lord was the side's top goal scorer but unfortunately came away with a bodgie nose, courtesy of a wayward foot.

Scores: Yeppoon 17.17.119 def Parkana 3.2.20. Best players: McGrath, Bain, Chamberlain and Roberts. Goals: Lord 4, Roberts 3, Munns, Pidgeon, Jungle, Harpo and Chamberlain 2 each.

Swans have a bye this week, but will battle Parkhurst at home the-following week.

SALES and SPARES

JUNIOR Swans had only one game last Sunday ... under 13s against St Brendan's at St Brendan's.

It was the first game of the season for St Brendan's and the side was not going to let the game go by, regardless of rain, hail or cyclones.

Among the mud and slush, a hard fought game between the two local sides provided the small spectator crowd with some of the best heart-pacing football so far this season, as the final low score indicated. St Brendan's 2-4,16 def Yeppoon 2-3-15.

Swans led the game through the first threequarters, but not to be disgraced, St Brendan's kept sneaking in a few points here and there to keep the Swans well and truly on their toes.

Determination on the day saw St Brendan's make a do-or-die effort in the final quarter.

Brendan's held their positions while the Swans scrambled for the water soaked ball, allowing Brendan's to move the ball all over the field when they got the break and this turned the tide in the final moments.

It was Yeppoon under 13s first defeat for the season and although coach Dale Wetzler was disappointed with the loss, he reminded the boys they could not rest on their laurels and be complacent.

Top credit must go to St Brendan's coach Tim

Farlow, who has trained a team of mostly unplayed Aussie Rules boys and taken out a win in their debut game.

Best players for Yeppoon: Doug Edwards, Hayden Steele and Glen Edwards (only eight years old, he put in a gutsy play).

Best players for St Brendan's: Bradley Kemp, Simon Black and Richard Apps.

Yeppoon plays at home on Sunday against Parkhurst. A full contingent will front - under 11, 13,15 and 17 - so it should be a great day for spectators to cheer on the home side at Yeppoon Showground.

NATIONAL Party MLAs have been known to be slightly right wing but Member for Broadsound Denis Hinton carries it to extremes ... he's been wandering around town with his "left wing" in a sling showing he has no use for it!!!

•• • REMEMBER way back when you had just started work and everyone seemed to scream at you when you made a mistake? Remember how you used to slink away from the ridicule and lick your wounds, all the time thinking of ways to get back at the boss? Well, Rhodes Watson, despite being of the younger generation, knows just how you used to feel because he's probably the only teenager with a job where the bosses are still allowed to scream at him ... you see, his bosses are his Mummy and Daddy and they treat work as an extension of home. (Everyone else of his age has a job where the bosses have to get the ulcer instead of giving them because bosses have been neutered by legislation). Anyway, Rhodes retired to lick his wounds on Wednesday after another screaming match and plotted the ultimate revenge. He waited, and waited ... and the moment came. His father ("Old Baldy')" shouted out that he needed shire chairman Cr John Bowen's phone number ("OB" can't use a phone book, can't remember numbers ... and likes everyone else to jump when he shouts).

While "OB" was sitting at the phone waiting for everyone to find thenumber Rhodes shouted out "I know it, I know it," and followed up with "it's 39 .... "OB," started to dial ... Rhodes shouted out again that it started with 39 ...

"OB" (getting edgy) shouted out he'd dialled that, what was the rest of the number. Rhodes shouted out "39" again and again"OB" shouted "I've got that, I've got that ... what's the rest?"

Then Rhodes struck ... "It's 39 ... and four other numbers that I can't remember!!!"

•• • AFTER Rhodes retired to lick his wounds once again, Suzy came close to visiting St Andrew's Hospital over the road ... laughter makes her lose her breath!!!

•• • IN case you're contemplating a trip to the South by car a Coast resident's advice this week could change your mind. It seems petrol costs 45.9c a litre in Melbourne ... every second week. Apparently it's at a much higher (and normal) price on the alternate week. The moral of the story is to make sure you hit Melbourne on the right week ... as the Coast resident did. The silly part is that when the resident told friends she was staying with that their petrol was cheap they replied that it is if you can holdout from the cheap week until the next. Seems this particular Melbourne family fills up on the last day of the cheap week (including a jerry can) and "hangs on" until the next cheap period. But if they all do that, what's the point of the garages having such regular "specials"?

• • • BY the way, the resident said petrol in Sydney cost 69c a litre ... and she wasn't joking. She said the garages had signs up advertising their prices just the same as everywhere else ... except for one garage that advertised petrol at a "Super Price - 18c a litre". The woman took another look at the sign ... and the "small print" under the 18c said: "plus Federal Government and State Government taxes"!!!

FUNNY how certain words come into vogue ... the word that was bandied around Livingstone Shire Council this week was "dynamic".

Cr Brian Dorey used it time and time again when referring to the Australia Day Committee and how it needed to become more "dynamic". Shire chairman Cr John Bowen, apparently tiring of the debate, suggested Cr Dorey might be able to make the committee more "dynamic" by "putting his dynamic bum" on the committee!!!

• • • STILL, like a tune that gets into your mind and won't get out, Cr Bowen later in the day was talking about "dynamic computers" ... maybe there will be another word by the next meeting!

Everybody's ball game...
