Appeal crashes through $10,000 THE Information Centre debt has been slashed to a four-figure sum ... six payments from donors this week combined with a $1000 monthly payment by the Capricorn Coast Tourist Organisation took the debt below the $10,000 mark.

The debt now stands at $9296.50 ... a long *ay down from the $55,000 that prompted the Capri• corn Coast Mirror Appeal.

There have been a few milestones along the way in this appeal that have given heart that, as expected, the CCTO's Information Centre would wind up free of debt.

The first was $50,000, followed by the "10s" ...

• $40,000, $30,000, $20,000 and now $10,000.

Each new milestone brought the centre closer to being clear of debt which will mean the CCTO • can get on with the job of promoting the Capricorn Coast.

Once free of debt, the CCTO will be able to

Lotto rainbow strikes Coast!

GOLD Lotto came to the Capricorn Coast on Saturday night when a Yeppoon resident shared the S12 million super draw.

His share was 5428,571.43 and the ticket was purchased from Ian Graham's Capricorn News. It is the fourth first prize the newsagency has sold since Lotto started in Queensland "We have been lucky, besides the first prizes we have sold some other major Lotto prizes," Mr Graham said.

October has been a lucky month for the newsagency with Golden Casket second and third prizes sold as well as the first in Lotto.

look ahead knowing the burden of paying $1000 a month has been lifted forever.

Paying that $1000 each month has not been easy ... CCTO members have spoken about the number of things that the month could be used for but, each month, the money has been paid off the loan.

Making these monthly payments was part of the agreement the Capricorn Coast Mirror insisted upon when it suggested the public be invited to help pay off the Information Centre.

The CCTO readily agreed to the payment condition because it was already committed to making the payment for the next 10 years ... but there were doubts that the public would see the benefit in paying of a centre designed to become the frontline in the battle to increase Capricorn Coast tourism.

Now, with less than $10,000 to go, it seems assured the appeal will achieve its objective ... the centre will be free of debt.

The hope is thatremaining donations will come in by the middle of next month so that the CCTO does not have to make any more $1000 payments.

CCTO executive members have written to donors asking them to complete their commitment as soon as possible. Follow-up personal calls will be made.

The Mirror promised all donors they would receive publicity for their effort ... this week, to celebrate the breaking of the $10,000 milestone, that publicity makes the front page!

Read the list of names ... these are the people who made the huge debt reduction possible. But, as you read the list, remember the Information Centre came about through CCTO vision combined with a huge number of donations of labour, materials and cash ... the full list of names is published on an honour board above the front door.

INFORMATION CENTRE DEBT REDUCED FROM $55,000 TO $9296

0L,

THE CCTO's Information Centre loan debt now stands at $9296.50 with donations of $1430 received this week plus another $1000 payment from the CCTO.

"The top floor of the extension will include a double teaching area large enough for up to 60 pupils, an activity area and a storage area," Mr Pearce said.

"The underneath will be left free for use as a shaded recreation area."

PRIOR to the last State election, it was discovered that the Broadsound electoral roll was in a mess which caused many problems on election day. The Capricorn Coast population is constantly changing with new families settling in the area all the time. I am keen to keep the roll up-to-date and to ensure people are enrolled when they move into the electorate. If in the last 12 months, you have changed your address within the town, moved from another area or have turned 15. you should comnlete a change of address/enrol-to-vote form.

LIVINGSTONE Shire Council has advertised for a town planner to take the place of the present planner, Scot Stewart, who leaves on November 16 ... the date objections to the proposed town plan and strategic town plan, town planning by-law and subdivision of land by-law close.

Mr Stewart is leaving to take up a position in Kinhill, Cameron and McNamara Pty Ltd's new Yeppoon office.

In his resignation to council Mr Stewart said he would be responsible for the town planning aspects of the firm's projects on the Capricorn Coast.

Council has advertised for applicants to replace Mr Stewart and hopes to have a new inoffice planner by the end of November.

A public notice in this week's Capricorn Coast Mirror, placed by Livingstone Shire Council, states "provided no unforeseen delays occur, the proposed town plan could become effective in June, 1991".

The shire's town plan has been percolating for at least two councils and had input from two in-office town planners and two outside consultants.

Allocation for Causeway project THE State Government has allocated a further $888,000 to complete the final stage of work to the Causeway Bridge project.

Acting Transport Minister Pat Comben announced the allocation this week which will finish the $1.188 million project involving reconstruction of the bridge approaches to twolane bitumen.

Mr Comben said the work included a new access to The Causeway Esplanade and an improved intersection with Resada Esplanade.

"Livingstone Shire Council has contributed S40,000 towards the cost of a 1.8 metre wide pedest rian walkway which will be built over The Causeway," Mr Comben said.

"Council has made $2,000 available for bus stops and has contributed towards the preliminary costs of site preparation and relocation of services."

Work to be carried out by the department's day labour force involves widening of The Causeway embankment and is scheduled to coincide with the bridge reconstruction project.

Mr Comben said the existing timber bridge, built in 1940, had been subjected to considerable recreational traffic and an increase in heavy vehicles generated by development works along the Capricorn Coast.

Related work includes the recently completed Kinka reconstruction, proposed work at Mulambin Beach and general pavement repairs.

"When completed next August, the new Causeway Bridge will improve safety for the growing volumes of local and tourist traffic using the coastal route from Yeppoon to Emu Park," he said.

A RECENT State Government budget allocation of Si million to Livingstone Shire Council has ensured work will continue on the Emu Park Sewerage Scheme, Member for Broadsound Jim Pearce said this week.

"The Si million allocation is the first part of a S2 million special treasury loan to council toward the cost of sewerage works at Emu Park," Mr Pearce said.

"A further Sl million will become available in the 1991/92 financial year.

"The special treasury loan is on agreed terms and conditions which will be over 20 years interest-free, but with the principle indexed to the CPI until June 30, 1996."

He said that from July 1, 1996, the loan would attract an interest rate equal to the prevailing long-term semi-governmental rate.

"Developer contributions, reserves and inter-fund transfers can reduce the loan as they become available up to June 30, 1996," he said.

"The information, provided to me by treasury, should clean up any doubts that the S2 million had already been allocated to Livingstone Shire Council.

"Earlier thisyear, I discovered no funds had been allocated to council for the sewerage scheme works.

"Following this discovery, I spoke to Premier Wayne Goss who assured me the funds would be made available and that the programme would go ahead."

Mr Pearce said the Emu Park sewerage had been talked about since 1985 and the Coast region would benefit from its completion.

CAPRICORN Coast ALP branch president Ross Dickson this week said the Yeppoon National Party branch had misled the local community.

"The branch should retract the statements it made in last week'sCapricorn Coast Mirror," Mr Dickson said. "If it doesn't, then it should stand condemned of wilful political mischief.

"Those members are Out of touch with the community, changing public attitudes, basic human rights, deployment of available resources and their own party's political line.

"They said the Queensland Labor Partywas not setting moral standards for families and accused the Labor Party of not dealingwith the AIDS crisis, relaxing the laws in relation to male homosexuality, relaxing laws on drug dealers and making Queensland children the target for the 'traffickers in death'," he said.

"Nothing is further from the truth. Everything alleged by them is wrong. They apparently don't have the facts, or have not been given the facts by their parliamentary members.

"The Government amended the Drugs Misuse Act in March this year. Mandatory life sentences were replaced with maximum sentences of 25 years. This brings Queensland into line with the penalties imposed in all Australian States and the penalties in the Federal Customs Act. "The Government is committed to the drug fight. At the first Goss Government cabinet meeting in December 1989, it made a decision to double the size of the State drug squad, plus establish a drug squad in Cairns and Townsville.

"This initiative cost 52.04 million and has resulted in purchases of 20 additional motor vehicles, support equipment and 73 staff members allocated to fighting drugs," Mr Dickson said.

"I offer to publicly debate Yeppoon National Party chairman Ami Setu or his representative on the issue of drugs and the efforts of the former government to combat drugs. All he has to do is let me know the place, date and time.

"The issue of homosexual law reform has been on the parliamentary committee of the Criminal Justice Commission.

"Maybe the local National Party branch didn't know this, but two of the party's parliamentary members are on that committee ... former deputy premier Bill Gunn and former attorney general Neville Harper.

"The committee is an all-party one and included Liberal member Santo Santoro with Labor's Peter Beattie. Wendy Edmond, Robert Schwarten and Margaret Woodgate," Mr Dickson said.

"This committee delivered, on October 4, 1990, a unanimous report recommending that homosexuality be decriminalised.

"I repeat. It was a unanimous report.

Clearly, the local National Party branch is out of touch.

"These members also have short memories.

Wasn't it their party that had a debacle about condom vending machines?"

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR • LETTERS TO THE EDITOR We owe a debt of gratitude to the Byfield people, if they are really responsible for saving Yeppoon from becoming a sand mining town with all the noise pollution, and other kinds of pollution that this will create.

Some of us here in Yeppoon have balanced in our minds the tourism/fishing industries against sand mining. The former is for ever, if we manage things properly; the latter is only short term with long-term detrimental aspects such as scarred landscapes, loss of wildlife, pollution and interruption to a priceless supply of fresh water.

- Molly Cmwford, 6 Natalie Place, Kinka

Byfield blockade needing support I'M sitting at the Water Park crossing in Byfield taking part in theblockade against sand mining in this area.

The country from Corio Bay up through to Shoalwater Bay into the army country is the largest, most diverse wilderness area on the east coast of Australia, south of Cooktown.

The Capricorn Coast people are privileged to take care of this area for tourism and fishing for future generations. Phase two and three of the proposed national park promised by the Labor Government (cough, cough) needs to be declared immediately.

The Shoalwater army country is managed well by the army already. Letting the mining go aheadwill endanger ourwater supply. We have a right to protect our land and this is the time to exercise that right.

There's been a lot of talk about big campaigns like Daintree and Franklin River but what this campaign needs is local support to stop our tourist area from turning into a mining town.

If you want to help, contact BRAG (Byfield Residents Action Group), 35 1238 or Wildlife Preservation Society in Yeppoon. The society's environment centre is in Normanby Street and open every morning. Please help Shoalwater.

McKinlay Shire seeks pictures AN interest has been shown in compiling a history of McKinlay Shire Council and as quite a few people from the shire have moved or retired to all parts of Australia, I was wondering if any of your readers could help by sending any information or photos about McKinlay Shire Council.

Any information on when it was formed in McKinlay and later when it was shifted to Julia Creek, information about the Shire chairman, councillors, who served on the council, the great distances they had to travel for meeting, by horse, horse and buggy, early motor cars and even today some still have to travel great distances but with modern transport.

The working conditions for the shire workers, the roads then and now, hardships then and now to get 'work done' in the vastness of the shire.

Perhaps there are relatives of earlier Shire chairmen, councillors, shire clerks and shire workers, who could help and those who have left or retired in later years.

I would also like to hear from people who have lived in the district and towns within the shire, histories of the properties, their views of life in the shire, when they lived there.

This project cannot get underway without the help and co-operation of everyone and any help, no matter how small, would be appreciated.

Please send any information to: Mrs Shirley Collings, Colwell Station, McKinlay, NW Queensland, 4823. Hoping you can assist me with printing this in your newspaper/magazine.

- Pat Naylot; MS 142 Byfield Road, Yeppoon.

Sand mining only short-term gain I THINK I am right when I say that not many people living along the Capricorn Coast want to exchange their beautiful environment, with its wealth of natural resources, fresh air, fresh water, peace and tranquility, with the environment now enjoyed by the people of Gladstone.

FURTHER FUNDING FOR CAPCARE CAPCARE, established to this year to care for children outside school hours, has received joint Federal and State Government funding.

The scheme is sponsored by Livingstone Shire Council and funded by the State and Federal Governments is at Cooee Park Hall.

Member for Capricornia Keith Wright announced details of the grant last week.

"Capcare will receive funding of 510,547 a year towards operational costs and initial grants of S500 for equipment and 51000 for programme support," Mr Wright said.

"The service is particularly helpful for parents who work or are training for work. The grant reflects the Government's understanding

that the need for child care does not end when children begin school, " he said.

"Outside school hours care is an important element of the Government's strategy to support working parents and those seeking to reenter the workforce, particularly sole parents.

"Livingstone Shire community development officer Jane Wallace and her committee have worked hard to keep this service open to Coast parents and I congratulate them on their excellent submission to the Government and their on-going commitment."

Mr Wright said the Capricorn Coast After School Care had places for 30 children and was sponsored by the Livingstone Shire Council.

ONCE again, we must appeal to contributors to provide their copy early Tuesday for the Capricorn Coast Mirror. We employ an blindingly-fast typist every Tuesday to set the bulk of the copy but even someone who can type at "blur" speeds meets her match when everything arrives after 4pm. If you r g roup meets, plays, does whatever before Tuesday, would you please ensure the notes on such activity arrive at the Mirror office by Monday evening or early Tuesday morning.

Obviously, if your activity is conducted on Tuesday or Tuesday night, or Wednesday you can't meet this deadline ... but others who can are making it likely that some copy will miss out.

Next week, the missing copy could by yours!

"It is important that the students see their research could have a positive benefit for the community," Mr Newell said. "The programme is designed to give the students an active insight into the operation of the local economy."

Mr Pearson congratulated the Education Department on the initiative and said the project work demonstrated the enormous value of close co-operation between the education system and the broader community.

"The CDRO will certainly be looking to replicate the initiative in other centres of Central and Central-Western Queensland," Mr Pearson said.

"The Tourism Services and Visitor Survey project surveyed providers of tourism related services and the visitors themselves. It is aimed at providing information on the sources of visitors to Rockhampton, length of stay and their expectations of their visit," Mr Newell said.

"These findings will be then matched with similar questions addressed to tourism industry service providers.

"They will be collated and distributed to the local industry through the CTDO, CCTO and Rockhampton Travel Association." a ABOVE:lhree-year-old Chisato Kaieda is pictured with two silver lids ... part of the •25th anniversary raffle for Yeppoon Kindergarten.

OCTOBER was Breastfeeding Awareness Month and the Capricorn Coast's two Nursing Mothers Association groups are willing to assist any mother - new or experienced - with information on how to care for babies.

Breastfeeding is good for mother and baby because breast milk is the perfect natural food for babies; it contains everything needed for a baby's growth for the first half year after birth.

Breastfeeding means more to a baby than simply food - it meets a baby's needs for sucking and security of close contact. It is convenient ... breast milk is always available, fresh and at the right temperature.

Breastfeeding helps protect babies against illnesses and allergies. It helps your uterus to return to its normal size more quickly and therefore helps you regain your figure more quickly after childbirth.

It can be a satisfying experience for mother and baby and helps create a special bond.

With support and the correct information almost. any mother can breastfeed and overcome any difficulties that may arise.

Nursing Mothers Association of Australia founder Mary Paton said: "A mother is the most important primary health care worker in every community. As the nurturer of future generations her job is worth doing ... and worth doing well".

NMAA has been supporting mothers for over a quarter of a century. In 1963, when Mary Paton was breastfeeding her first baby, she found little information or encouragement available to help the nursing mother.

Early in 1964, she invited five other young mothers to a meeting at her Melbourne home.

At the meeting the idea and aims of the Nursing Mothers Association of Australia evolved to help, encourage, educate and support mothers who wish to breastfeed their babies.

Since then, NMAA has spread Australiawide with 550 groups and 1300 trained breastfeeding counsellors. There are currently more than 100,000 members and 300 to 400 volunteers are trained as breastfeeding counsellors each year.

Twenty-four hour telephone counselling is provided for breastfeeding mothers and over 230,000 calls are received annually. Support is offered free-of-charge on mother-to-mother basis, in person, group gatherings, by phone or letter.

Each local group has a group leader who is a breastfeeding counsellor and may have other breastfeeding counsellors and trainees. Gatherings are informal and replaces, to a certain extent, the support previously received from the extended family information, both practical and theoretical, friendship and empathy.

A breastfeeding counsellor is a mother who has breastfed her baby for :it least nine months and who has practical understanding of breastfeeding and the joy, and tribulations of being a mother. Each group has a library with books on breastfeeding and child care.

NMAA is supported by a panel of honorary advisors, with specialists in many aspects of lactation and child care, nutritionists and members of the legal profession.

Nursing mothers publishes a regular newsletter which has informative articles and mothers' experiences and a twice-yearly professional journal, "Breastfeeding Review".

NMAA is involved in community education providing information to schools, health professionals, at pregnant am' new mothers' talks and through the media.

Emu Park and Yeppoon groups hold monthly discussion meetings on breastfeeding and child-care topics and coffee mornings. For details phone Kathy Boles, 39 6213 or Judy Shields, 39 4139.

Webber wants Gt Keppel costings LIVINGSTONE Shire division one Cr Lloyd Webber has requested costings for a sealed road linking Wapparaburra Haven with the resort development of Great Keppel Island.

"The present road along the foreshore is a dusty track which detracts from the magnificent development undertaken by the resort and is a sign of a lack of commitment by council of a prime tourist destination," Cr Webber said.

"I am opposed to any further development on Great Keppel Island because I believe the natural resources of the island are already taxed to the limit but a sealed road is essential to complement what is already there.

"Great Keppel ratepayers contribute significantly to council coffers but receive little in return by way of council services, and the least any ratepayer could expect is a dust-free serviceable road over a heavy pedestrian traffic area."

I „ Capricorn Coast Mirror October 26 - November 1, 1990 - 13 • CONTINUED FROM BACK PAGE disappointed ... "aggravation" could be more the word. Sydney's commercial TV is junk! Idiotic games shows with things contestants move; a variety show with a compere who must have huge appeal to city slickers because of the salary he's paid but left us country folk cold. Inane remarks, dumb faxes from the public, pop stars who mumble and an audience that applauds and shouts if the compere merely looks at them.

Sydney people must be weird if they enjoy this show. If you can believe it, it's a Hey! Hey! It's Saturday! ... without the sophistication!!!

•

•

•

YET there's no need to watch TV in Sydney ... the Greatest Show on Earth is available day and night walking past, and it's free. Of course, it would be safer to watch this passing parade from a car. A phone call on Saturday night brought a taxi to the door and a Malaysian driver proudly showed off his city. He drove past the wharves, closed and silent, remarking that in America, Japan, Malaysia, anywhere that was going somewhere, the wharves would be alive around-the-clock. "No incentive here," he said.

"Earn $100,000 here and the government takes so much it's like you're in partnership. Everyone I know did their big year when they worked night and day as they did overseas ... then they looked at what was left at the end of the year and, like me, settled back into a five-day-a-week routine.

We're not going anywhere, neither is the country." He's been in Australia 10 years. He enjoyed watching the gays (thought about a capital G on gay but once you see them you say Gee so often

Rama ifitt Mae eK TIM bark at it's redundant) in Oxford Street. There was a big party on that night in a showground and a banner outside said: "No cameras; No alcohol; No sparklers". The taxi driver took great pains to point out the men kissing each other; the way they rolled their tight shorts to expose their cheeks; the hand-holding; the huge numbers of them.

When told the Gay Mardi Gras had been an election issue in Queensland the taxi driver asked "Who won?" He had no t heard of Goss! In away, why should he? Sydney is Sydney. It doesn't need Queensland. The people live in another world. The taxi driver lives in a $180,000 house in the suburbs. The idea of buying a $165,000 absolute beachfront home in Yeppoon appeals for an instant ... but he'd have to move his wife and children away from their friends. He said he'd like to retire here. But, like everyone else, he complains about the day-to-day living costs in Sydney ... but he's not going to leave. It would even be hard to get him here for a holiday ... he has a playground on his door-step and he takes it for granted!

•• • THE prostitutes on the fringe of Kings Cross

are wearing what appear to be white one-piece bathers. They certainly stand out in the dark.

They lounge around or strut their stuff and the taxi driver waits for a reaction ... we move on toHyde Park. Is is safe to walk in it at night? The hotel receptionist said no; one taxi driver said yes, another said no ... this one, looking down a shimmering golden avenue of fairyland-lit trees shrugs ... "A girl was mugged at noon in the middle of Sydney while going to lunch," he said.

"She had her ear-rings torn right out of her lobes.

Her ring finger was injured while the mugger tore off herrings. No-one stopped. No-one helped her." Hyde Park did look inviting ... but it's silly to walk when you're in a cab, isn't it? Back in the hotel room, the late news shows a bloke sitting in a hospital bed with a slash across his Adams Apple ... seems someone just whipped a knife across his throat as he walked past!!!

•• • BUSES are plentiful but taxis are better. Quite frankly, the taxis were cheaper ... and at least they knew where they were going. One bus driver had to be reminded of what the destination sign said on the front of the bus. Don't know where he was going but it wasn't where he told us it was. We walked and walked, back-tracking over the roads the bus had incorrectly carried us ...eventually we flagged a taxi and his fare was less than the bus!

•• • AND so it's time to come home. The flight down was miserable. The glamour has certainly left the airline industry. The Boein&737 seats in economy were so narrow that trying to eat break-

fast in the three-abreast seats meant rows and rows of passengers flapping their arms to move their knives and forks ... there was so much arm flapping the passengers could have kept the plane aloft! And the bacon served with the breakfast eggs looked grey ... no point in serving food that people can't eat!

•• • THE trip home was better; an Airbus from Sydney to Brisbane. Bit more room for arms and legs ... but a 45-minute stop-over in Brisbane waiting for Rocky connection (another 737).

The meal flight was another exciting event with everyone flapping their way to the north. The food, except for the main course (it seemed to be some sort of lamb sausage but hard to say since it was tasteless) was OK ... but next time, we'll take the train!!!

•• • ROCKY'S whippy-poo airport terminal is attractive -. but standing around for 20 minutes watching a black, oval-shaped conveyor belt with no luggage is not the best way to end a trip.

Finally, finally, the bag arrives. It's a mad dash from the airport to Kentucky ducky or whatever to get something to eat ... the next stop was home.

•• • AS the expression goes ... there's no place like home. No knives across the throat, no sirens ... and the moon over the water silhouetting Great Keppel Island. Sydney, you're a great place to grow up; you're a great place for the rellies to live in ... and you're a great place to visit!!! But home is where the heart is ... and Kinka Beach is home!

Goodger supplies trophies

Summer series final race THE Capricornia Cruising Yacht Club stages the final race of the Summer Series on Saturday.

The first two races were Ocean or Island race, but tomorrow's is a return to the cut and thrust style with the course an Olympic triangle, where tactics and sail-handling are all-important.

The series is led by 'Fenina' on 3.2 points with 'Raw Sugar' on 6.25 and 'Master Blaster' 7.00.

Neither of the two leading yachts is well suited to triangle racingwith theirbig sail areas and small crew numbers so the final race could be a cliff-hanger.

The Summer Series has been used to tune up yachts and crews for the 4R0 sponsored 'Roundthe-Bay' race on November 17. This event starts from Sea Hill. Curtis Island. north-east to Barren. west to Bluff Rock and return to Sea Hill.

Featured in the race is the annual clash between CCYC boats and the competitive fleet of ocean racers from Port Curtis Yacht Club.

CCYC's free open day on November 11 is causing interest and organisers announced this week some of the exhibitors: Bruce Finlay Sails from Airlie Beach: Australian Naval Cadets: Blue Water Marine: Wormald Marine Fire Systems: Capricorn Coast Tourist Organisation: Access Electronics: National Parks and Wildlife and Bill Breach who will construct a model of two yachts racing ... in a bottle.

Yeppoon bowls triples final THE final of the open club triples was played on Saturday afternoon at Yeppoon Bowls Club. leaving one game to play ... the final of the veteran pairs which will be played on Wednesday afternoon.

This game will wind up all this year's competitions.

Arthur Atcheson played as a substitute for Alan King with Harry Maher and Eric Austin against Frank O'Brien. Peter Brown and Clarry Hinton.

It was a low-scoring game with Austin getting two fours and Hinton a five. all the rest were singles or twos.

A third of the way through on the eighth the scoreswere level 7 all and two thirds, the 14th Hinton scored his five to set up the biggest lead in the game 19 8.

With two ends remaining. Austin scored a four but still trailed 22 14. The final score favoured Hinton 23 16.

The semi final of the veterans pairs saw Jack Condon and Bill Roberts against two of the club's oldest playing members ... Bill Bond and Harry Maher.

Robertswas the slow starter. but on the ninth end the scores were level 8 all. On the 17th Maher led 17 15 and it was still anyone's game. On the 19th Harry picked up a three to put him in front 2115. Bill scored a three and a single to go down 19 21.

In the final Harry and Bill play Col Harris and Frank Birkett.

St Lawrence sent 15 players for a mixed day against Yeppoon on Sunday. Some of the locals had to play for the visitors but it was recorded as a good social day and the publicity officer he was told the barbecue lunch was a success.

The scores for the day were Yeppoon 299. St Lawrence 179. The winning team for the day was Yeppoon's Marj Hansen. George Hillier. Elinor Batts and Harry McNamara.

Runners-up were St Lawrence's president Ken Wedel with Trev Smith. Joy Barber and Peter McGinty.

The feathers on Wednesday were won by Gordon Damm. Eddie Engel and Mo Stewart.

Saturday is D C Motors trophy day and there are more trophy days ahead so watch the notice board.

Knight downs George

• ABOVE: Eight-year-old Emu Park resident Adam Clark is the youngest person outside Japan to gain a black belt in Shotokan Karate.

Adam Clark youngest black belt EMU PARK resident and year four student Adam Clark, 8, is the youngest Shotokan Karate exponent outside Japan to have gained a black belt.

Adam started learning shotokan when he was five-years-old and now trains with Peter Harth at the Rockhampton Police Youth Club.

He successfully passed his grading for his shodan black belt last month in Canberra where he competed in the Australian National SKI titles.

Adam competed in the national under 15 kr...ta and was placed second.

He trains for three hours, twice a week. at the club and then trains at home for about three quarters of an hour a day.

"We originally encouraged him to learn karate for self defence," his father Noel said. "But he has shown such expertise we are encouraging him further. By earning his black belt, he can now compete in any competition.

"The next belt Adam can earn is second Dan and it is four years before he can be graded again, so that is his next aim. Each belt takes longer to get."

In shotokan, there are 10 kuys (or stages): one white; white with two black stripes: yellow-. orange: two purple: three brown: then black. The only person who can grade a black belt is sensei Kanawaza from Japan who attends the Australian Karate championships to grade black belts.

• After seven years, I have taken a break and invited guest columnist John Watson to fill this space about a trip he and Suzy made to Sydney.

Because he knows the owner of the paper, he gets to write more than I do ... either that or he's the type who used to like writing compositions about My Holiday. ThanIcfully, I'm away so I don't have to read it — James Hill SYDNEY ... you arrive, saddle-weary, by aeroplane, (either seats are getting narrower or the rear of the lap is getting bigger) step outside the terminal to catch a bus into town and there's wall-to-wall police with guns high on hips waving traffic to a stop. Obviously something has happened. The police are everywhere but the taxi driver ignores them taking no interest in their activities. As the taxi passes by it looks like there's a gas leak or some such danger. No-one cared, no-one took a second glance. The lack of interest seemed odd.

•• • THE hotel room's 2x2 window is sealed shut.

No amount of effort will budge it. Later, reading a pamphlet from the management, guests are asked not to open the window because the room is air-conditioned. It seems reasonable... then you hear something odd in the bathroom. It's a siren. Once you've heard a siren and identified that it's a siren you can't get the sound out of your mind. For the rest of the stay every siren whines into the room ... and it's a sound that surrounds Sydney every hour of the day and night. Now you know why the window is sealed!

•• • THE mono-rail that silently whips around Sydney shops at awning level is a gem. The trip costs $2 whether travelling one stop or the full six; it's air-conditioned, almost sound-proof, spotlessly clean, comfortable and space-age.

Once you've ridden the mono-rail nothing else satisfies.

•• • THE purpose of the trip was a MacExpo at Darling Harbour Exhibition Centre. The Capricorn Coast Mirror uses Apple Macs, as well as IBM compatibles, to produce the newspaper.

We went into this form of typesetting (desktop publishing, DTP) three-and-a-half years ago when it was in its infancy. Today, DTP is a monumentally huge business. This Expo seemed the perfect way to see the latest equipment under one roof to determine future needs. The Darling Harbour centre, a huge complex, was the perfect venue. It's central to the City of Sydney, easily reached by mono-rail, bus, taxi and on foot. As Mick Dundee would say: "Now, that's a convention centre".

•• • UNFORTUNATELY, the computer industry does not appear to run as smoothly as the products its produces. We registered for the expo about six weeks in advance, booked travel and accommodation and waited to hear back from the organisers. We leame&through a magazine that the expo date was changed which meant rebooking every part of the trip then, and only then, had our first communication from the organisers. A pamphlet set out a series of seminars together with a closing date for attendance applications. There was an air of rush about the closing date. Off went $250 to the organisers for bookings ... and nothing was heard or received in reply. Three days before leaving for Sydney we phoned the organisers to be told there were too many applications to write to everyone but registration was available at the expo. It was, and it

Buren Riff mita Olt

Me bark at tile Ktivtax was quite efficient ... but it was on the Friday.

The expo started on the Thursday and organisers tried to sting us for a lousy $7.50 to enter the room with the computers and allow a horde of salesmen to attack us. Shouting and swearing overcame this problem ... pity that's the only tactics that seem to work.

•• • YES, the computers are terrific. The peripherals are even better. There are products that do things that even after you have seen them work you still believe it's impossible. But that was the work part of the trip ... the rest of the trip was Sydney!

•• • AUSTRALIA'S first city is go, go, go. Coffee lounges seems to be on every corner the way pubs used to be; continental cakes with thick chocolate icing seem to be the new fast-food; Vietnamese, Japanese, Indonesian cooking seems, more prominent than Chinese and prices are not expensive (they're not cheap, either, but they're not expensive)!

•• • SHOPS are everywhere. Sydney is one giant shopping plaza. No matter where you go there's a shop or something you can buy. Near the Town Hall there's a hole in the footpath inviting you to avoid the traffic and take the subway ... there's three levels of shops under that road! Three levels. You ride around in escalators heading up and down, looking in shop windows, trying on clothes, eating snacks totally oblivious of the fact that all you wanted to do was cross the road!!

•• • THERE'S the old Queen Victoria Building built a century ago that has been fully restored.

Don't pass over that ... fully restored; in Sydney, where money must be a little bit easier to pick up than it is on the Capricorn Coast, fully restored means just that. This building/shopping centre is beautiful. There's about 100 specialty shops on about five levels with coffee lounges at each level with tables places so you can watch shoppers on lower levels. Shopping here is an experience ... one level was devoted to bridal gear.

One shop only sells holograms. Think of a market so large that a shop selling things that you hold at an angle to see can not only survive but also obviously prosper! There were leather shops at every turn and all have Sales!!! ... and the fourfigure prices that were left make you wonder what the pre-sale prices were! There's an ABC shop in this building so Suzy, finally, managed to see the full range of ABC books and videos.

There must be an opening for a shop in Yeppoon to become an ABC outlet!

•• • TALKING about the ABC, it's one of five TV channels in Sydney. There was no point in watching it because we already receive it here. But the Sydney trip was a great chance to see the four commercial TV channels that we are going to cop on the Coast. If you are looking to "aggregation" to provide your entertainment you could be • CONTINUED ON PAGE 13
