HenzeII: rail closures must New faces in have been planned cast of 50.

• BY JACK INCE, who wrote this series of articles about the rail-link closure and its effect on the Capricorn Coast.

FEDERAL member for Capricornia Marjorie Henzell has questioned the speed in which the Yeppoon-to-Rockhampton rail closure was announced - two weeks after the Premiers' conference.

She said she was concerned the State Government was using the Federal Government cut-backs to implement an already planned decision.

State Transport Minister David Hamill announced on Monday the rail link would be but the Yeppoon Railway Station would stay open.

"I'm very concerned the cuts were introduced so quickly. It could not have allowed time for any consultation or consideration," she said.

"Otherwise these closures must have been already planned and the Commonwealth funding-cuts been blamed.

"It seems to be very hard to escape that conclusion."

Mrs Henzell said it was for the State Government to be responsible for its own budget and

(

that in fact it had fared very well in the recent fund-allocation.

"Queensland received $5.7 billion from the Federal Government this year. which worked out to be $320 more per head than NSW and $318 more per head than Victoria," she said "The State Government is trying to be responsible and it must have an efficient railway but it does seem to be a very fast decision.

"I think the government is working on the principle that if it is losing money in one direction it cannot spend it in another.

"That is efficient in the short-term but in a developing area like Yeppoon it will have a long-term effect.

"When towns lose a rail connection it usually has a devastating effect on the economy and that becomes a problem for the government.

"In a growing area like the Capricorn Coast. those problems will only expand.

"Mt Morgan is a classic example of a town losing its railway link and then being held back by it.

"Tourism could have really blossomed at Mt Morgan if the rail was still there."

$115m. shortfall blamed

YEPPOON'S railway link will be closed after a $115 million shortfall in Federal Government funding from the Premiers' Conference two weeks ago, according to Transport Minister David Hamill.

On Monday. the Transport Department announced 29 of Queensland's 46 rail-links would be closed as soon as possible.

The Yeppoon line is expected to cease operating by January although the station itself will continue as a Q-link depot and continue to sell rail tickets.

A railway source said $140.(X)0 worth of tickets were sold from the Yeppoon station each year.

He also said the formula for calculating the cost of maintaining the Nerimbera-to-Yeppoon line was based on $8000 a kilometre.

On that basis the annual maintenance cost of the 42km Yeppoon branch is $336,000.

The source said it cost $900 to run a train from Rockhampton to Yeppoon, including staff and fuel.

According to Queensland Rail, none of the six employees affected by the Yeppoon closure would be retrenched.

A Transport Department spokesman, Steve Rous, said the 500 employees throughout the State affected by thecut-backs would be offered voluntary early retirement or be relocated.

Mr Rous also said it would be a QR decision whether the existing Yeppoon line would remain where it was or. if required elsewhere, be removed.

"However the corridor for the line will be kept in case of future changes," he said.

Mr Hamill said the branch lines cut had been those which had been unable to pay their way.

"These 29 lines account for one percent of the QR's income but eight percent of its costs." he said.

"Despite our best efforts to change that situation in recent years. these lines were simply not receiving the usage they required.

"The Yeppoon line for example was being used by enough customers to warrant only one return service a week."

QR's railway management spent most of the week working out an implementation plan.

It is expected the overall closures will save $4 million this year and $40 million a year in the long-term.

THE Capricorn Coast's pineapple growing industry has been stunned by the Queensland Transport Department's shock announcement to close the Rockhampton-Yeppoon rail service.

Farming communities have been rocked by the closure which will affect the transport of 1 5.(X X) tonnes of cannery-bound pineapples each

year.

The Coast's 30 farmers are now faced with the prospect of road-transporting all their product to either Rockhampton or beyond.

The fresh-fruit pineapple market, which accounts for almost half the produce from the Capricorn Coast, is already road-transported.

The expected increased trucking costs will

affect an estimated $4.5 million worth of cannery crops.

Yeppoon Fruit Growers and Local Producers Association spokesman Dave Vaughan said the entire farming community on the Coast was in a state of shock after being given an undertaking by Transport Minister David Hamill on April 21 that the railway would not close.

"We had no prior warning whatsoever of the axing and there seems to be absolutely nothing we can do to change it." he said.

"At a meeting with Mr Hamill only a few months ago he assured us everything was alright."

LAVISH STAGE PRODUCTION THE Capricorn Coast is gbout to be treated to one of the most lavish and popular stage productions in the Yeppoon Choral Society presentation of the Great Waltz (or Waltzes from Vienna) for a three night season.

This comic opera's previous success has prompted the society to repeat the delightful musical.

Set in the mid 1840s. the play is centred around a musician - Johann Strauss junior affectionately known as Schant. His ambition is to become a famous composer like his father Johann Strauss senior.

The story-line reveals dreams and visions, success and sacrifice, romantic entanglements and unfailing friendships. Furnish this with enticing costumes and scenery, and you have a evening of delight.

Principal roles are Countess Olga Baranskaya (Betty McLucas), Lina (Nola Dunstan), Mitzi (Sharyn Black), Johann Strauss (Aub Pedwell), Strauss Senior (Ron Donaldson), Ebeseder

(Duncan Stewart), Vogl (Peter Green), Leopold (Sam Vaughan), Vronski (David Beasley).

Drexler (Ron Deasy) and Dommayer (Tom Edmistone).

The large cast of about 50 also includes several new faces: Frances and John Coll, Ron Deasy, Ron Donaldson, Susan Head, Beth Knowles, Sally Nellen, Desley Rial and Cheryl Watts.

The musical will be staged on Saturday. July 24. Wednesday, July 28 and Saturday, July 31, starting at 7.45pm. Bookings are available at Stewart and Brumm Chemists. Admission is $10 adults. $8 pensioners. and $6 students.

Concessions are given to groups of 10 or more.

"The society is fortunate to have the Rock Building Society Limited sponsor the show, but one lucky patron on opening night, July 24, will be the proud owner of a locally made wall clock crafted and donated by society member Sam Vaughan of Vaughan's Furniture," the spokesman said.

LESTER BLASTS STATE GOVERNMENT OVER RAIL CLOSURE MEMBER for Keppel Vince Lester has accused the State Labor Government of lying and showing outright contempt for rural communities with its decision to cut vital rail-link branches.

He said the decision was yet another kick in the head for country people and that he would be talking to Livingstone Shire Council and growers to co-ordinate an effort to keep the line open.

Mr Lester said he was concerned about the increased truck traffic with hundreds of extra trucks competing on already busy roads.

"With the extra burden on roads, I don't really know how cost-effective shutting the rail-links will be." he said "Mr Hamill has simply lied about the closure. How can we believe the government in whatever they tell us?

"Can we believe them now if they tell us there will be no cuts to the ambulance or fire services?

"The government is totally involved with centralisation and we cannot cop this lying down.

"They just seem to be squandering the money on committees and other red tape.

"How can they can afford a $100 million loss on the Brisbane suburban lines and go ahead with a $150 million Gold Coast line and lose $30 million a year?

"How can they go ahead with so many other massive projects in the Brisbane area and still cut vital rail-links to country areas?

"They don't seem to understand the country is the life-blood of the cities.

"I'm asking Capricorn Coast people not to give up and protest the decision."

"What's next, the hospital?

"It's also denting the growers ability to compete on the open market and that will affect us all.

"What is the government doing with all its revenue gathered through the poker machines, Footy-Tab, the extra funds through all the new homes being built, the land-tax from graziers, the income from the coal industry?

"Saying the shortfall is coming from Canberra is not really true. In many ways State Government is a lot better off than it has been for a long time.

`No plan to close line' A LETTER from Queensland Transport Minister David Hamill to the office of Member for Keppel Vince Lester and dated May 31, 1993, states categorically there were no current plans to close the Yeppoon railway line.

It also said the Rockhampton-Yeppoon line was being maintained at an acceptable standard of safety.

The question on the closure of Yeppoon's rail-link has raised its head on a number of occasions in the past few years.

The Hamill letter said: "All revenue earned for pineapples loaded at Yeppoon destined for the Northgate cannery is attributed to revenue generated by the Yeppoon Station.

"Unfortunately, the only significant revenue earned on this branch line is the pineapple traffic and all operating costs on this line are therefore also debited against this traffic with resultant poor cost recovery.

"However, you can be assured there are no current plans to close the Yeppoon line and this situation is expected to continue whilst current volumes of pineapple traffic continue to use the

line.

"I trust this information allays the concerns raised.

Yours sincerely D.J.Hamill. MLA. Minister for Transport".

A Queensland Rail source said this week the pineapple traffic had been consistent with its two train-loads a week average.

The source said during summer peak periods the number rose to as high as five trains a week but decreased during bad weather.

He said the present traffic was operating at the two trains a week average although it would be quiet for the next few months.

Growers stunned • CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 ple farmers were attending an industry field day at Beerwah today (Friday) and he hoped representatives would visit the Golden Circle cannery at Northgate and speak to management about the situation.

"We don't know what we will be doing from here," Mr Vaughan said.

"We will be looking at alternatives but obviously we will have to use trucks, at least to Rockhampton."

Valley Syndicate grower Mick Cranny, who normally transports 1500 tonnes of pineapples by rail every year, said he was disappointed with the news "but it was typical of the present Labor Government".

"It wasn't totally surprising but when politicians and Queensland Rail officials are telling you one thing, it's difficult to just ignore it." he said.

"The government made election promises to keep the rail-link and continued lying about it."

Graham Clayton also transports about 15(X) tonnes of pineapples by rail each year and was concerned about how empty bins would get back to the Coast.

"I'm dumbfounded by the announcement after all the assurances." he said.

"A major concern is how the empty bins will be returned. A truck won't bring bins down from Rockhampton unless getting fully paid."

Queensland Fruit and Vegetable Growers' Central Queensland delegate and Golden Circle cannery representative Bob Burrowes said producers faced extra costs in trucking crops in a market already affected by low prices.

He said he was shocked by the announcement but had not had time to consider all the options.

Capricorn Coast Chamber of Commerce president Don Fee was also concerned about the broken promises and the decision's long-term impact on the community.

He said the increased costs to growers. already being thumped by low prices and imports, would be another nail in the coffin of the pineapple industry.

"Reducing the growers' income ultimately affects the entire Coast's economy," he said.

Council fax to 1-lamill objects to line closure LIVINGSTONE Shire Council is faxing a letter to Railway Minister David Hamill saying it "objects extremely strongly" over the closure of the Yeppoon line.

Cr Roy Wall moved the motion saying promises by previous and the present government to not close the line had been broken.

He said it looked like northern rail lines were subsidising the south-east ones.

Cr Hubert Murray said the government had to provide certain facilities even if they did run at a loss.

Cr Kim Shields said the closure was a kick in the face for Capricorn Coast people.

He said they had constantly been told there was no intent to close the railway.

He said it was unbelievable the government put money into the Gold Coast Indy 500 and "they close railway lines to save money".

Council was also concerned of the stress on the roads with the increased number of carters.

The motion was carried unanimously.

Webber disagrees Station wagon damaged after hitting Emu Park pole house with rates story LIVINGSTONE Shire Cr Lloyd Webber this week disagreed with the Capricorn Coast Mirror report last week on council's pruning of its budget blow-out ($836,000).

The story stated Cr Lloyd Webber had said he would be happy to see the rise as high as six percent so long as the $836,000 was left in the budget.

This week Cr Webber said, while he agreed he had said it would be acceptable to see the rise as high as six percent, it had not been his intention that the full $836,000 expenditure (to be pruned) be left in the budget.

"It would take a lot more than a six percent rate rise to keep the full expenditure in the budget," Cr Webber said.

`Massive bonfires' waste wood at Mulambin Beach MULAMBIN Beach campers are having "massive bonfires" and wasting wood, according to Livingstone Shire Council's chief environmental health officer Rick Thessman.

He said the wood was meant for barbecues but people were wasting it with bonfires.

The subject sparked when council came to Mulambin Beach Camping Area caretaker David Sutcliffe's monthly report where he said firewood

was "urgently needed on a regular basis".

Mr Thessman said he had previously told Mr Sutcliffe the wood was meant only for barbecues but "the bonfires continue".

Cr Barbara Wildin said she could understand the bonfires because when people went camping they generally liked a bonfire.

Also in his report Mr Sutcliffe said council should make rational business decisions.

He was talking about the proposed rise in price of uno:cupied vans from $2.50 to $5 a day.

He called the rise ridiculous considering "there is no laundry or power and it is $3 more than the weekly rate of $32 a week".

He said with unoccupied vans the park facilities were not used.

"The semi-permanents are the ones who keep the park looking good, keep it tidy and mow the grass at both ends of the park," he said.

"The permanent and weekend users generate a good return to the council, a minimum of $27.756 a year.

TARANGANBA'S new $3.7 million primary state .school was officially opened by Queensland Education Minister Pat Comben on Friday.

On the day, the over-riding feeling was one of relief that the development took place the year before recent announcements on severe Education Department spending cuts.

The school's 280 students, 27 pre-school pupils and about 100 parents, 12 teachers and other interested people attended the opening.

Other speakers at the occasion were school principal Shane Urquhart, P&C president Lou Morris, Member for Keppel Vince Lester and the Education Department's Capricorn regional executive director Mike Maher.

During the ceremony, MrComben congratulated the school's principal for working with the community to establish the new complex and its management procedures.

He also commended the community for working in partnership with the school in providing a quality local educational environment.

"The Queensland Government recognises the many and varied abilities and perspectives parents and the community have to offer in providing significant resources for the benefit of schools," he said.

"As education is a community function, it is vital adult members of the community provide input into the education of their young.

"Schools do not belong to governments or any other institution, they belong to the community."

Mr Comben said the new school was a stateof-the-art complex which included two teaching areas incorporating a wet area and courtyard and classrooms with multi-purpose areas for activities such as cooking, painting and science experiments.

It also includes an undercover area, covered concrete walkways, pre-school, special education unit, library resource centre, fully developed sports oval and tuckshop.

The school is located on almost eight hectares of fully landscaped grounds.' .Mr Comben was taken on a short tour of the school grounds and was particularly interested in a fenced-off area in the centre of the complex which has been left in original condition to protect a large bush-turkey nest.

School captains Leonne Raddon and Nicholas Craig cut a special commemorative cake to mark the school's opening day.

Pre-school the newest in Qld

TARANGANBA Pre-school is one of the newest pre-schools in Queensland.

"Considerable thought has gone into the efficiency and design of the unit which is suited to Queensland's climate." the spokesperson said.

"There is a modern undercover climbing frame and outside play area ... a fully equipped single unit. As the latest design of pre-school centres, we have been provided with much technologically advanced equipment for the children's use.

"Taranganba Pre-school has been equipped with an Apple Mac LC2 Computer, a televisionvideo unit, video camera, 3-in-1 stereo (including a CD player). as well as the latest in new resources (books, puzzles and games)," she said.

"It is an exceptional environment to nurture, stimulate and help the pre-school child to grtiw and develop.

"Our school is dedicated to the growth and development of the children in a relaxed and stimulating environment."

Taranganba Pre-school is currently a sessional pm-school - sessions are 9-11.30am and 12.30-3pm with 27 children enrolled between the two sessions.

"This year the Department of Education has implemented a new policy for all new preschools. To allow any changes of the session to take place all new requirements need to be fulfilled," she said.

"Taranganba Pre-school parents are conducting a survey to determine the needs of the community as to whether full day or sessional pre-school is preferred regardless of which preschool your child will attend.

"Parents with children who are eligible for pre-school in 1994 will need to enrol their child in a pre-school as this aids us in having a more realistic view of parents' preferences.

"We invite parents to contact Taranganba Preschool, 39 5692, so we will be able to prepare for the new year," she said.

AFTER surveys indicating Auton-Johnson Road residents did not want a wheelie bin service, a petition, and many phone calls to the council ... Livingstone Shire Council will go ahead with a three-month trial.

In the May council meeting a survey clearly indicated the residents did not want one.

Auton-Johnson Road resident and councillor, Kevin Hinz. said other areas didn't have the chance to knock back the wheelie bins.

He said if council was going to do a survey every time then nothing would ever happen.

The wheelie bins were supposed to go out in May but council received a petition from residents in the street opposed to the trial.

In last week's pre-budget meeting chairman Cr Barbara Wildin said she had held the wheelie bins back so she could "bounce the petition off them (the councillors)" to see how they felt.

Cr Kevin Hinz said he was annoyed to think someone could phone up and change a council decision.

Cr Wilciin said there were a lot of calls against the trial.

Cr Hinz: "It doesn't matter how many calls".

Cr Mather moved the distribution of the trial wheelie bins in the Auton-Johnson Road area be held off uhtil after the meeting to ascertain the contents of the correspondence.

She called a division anti the motion was lost with Crs Mather. John Smith and Lloyd Webber voting for it and Crs Wildin, Hinz, Keith Hinchliffe, Hubert Murray, Mike Prior, Duncan McDonald, Roy Wall, Fay Owens, Kim Shields and John Dowie against.

Cr Prior said to Cr Webber during the meeting that "one bloke" was stirring it all up.

In this month's meeting, two letters from residents and a petition were tabled.

Cr Mather asked what would happen after the trial.

Chief environmental health officer Rick Thessman said council would go back and do a

survey and "if the consensus is the majority don't want it, we will take it out".

Cr Hinz said it would go to the table before being taken out.

Cr Prior said it was going from the sublime to the ridiculous. He said when council was doing sewerage it didn't ask the residents if they wanted it.

Cr Mather said it was a different situation.

Alister Thomson of Auton-Johnson Road wrote to council saying it had tried to "circumvent the natural democratic decision of the residents by stealth".

He gave a number of reasons against the introduction of the bins.

• In some cases houses were up to 200m away from the road and the "driveway" was hilly and made of dirt or gravel making it extremely difficult for someone, not pretty fit. to push a wheelie bin to the road for collection.

• The additional cost of $102.90 a year.

• There is considerable heavy traffic of timber trucks, milk tanker and other sawmill traffic and while the road is not very wide the speed limit is 80kp \h. The road varies in condition and in a number of cases the wheelie bin would have to be placed on the road causing a traffic hazard, or placed in the drain where it would be awkward, if not, difficult to retrieve for emptying.

• Most of the residents, if not all, have chosen to live there to get away from the city and all the problems with city life and are quite happy not to have the services expected in the city.

He said the main issue at stake was the complete disregard by the council of the request of an overwhelming majority of the residents in the area who do not want the wheelie bin garbage system and its costs.

In another letter from Auton-Johnson Road resident Paul Frisby he asked why council was taking "this retrograde step?".

"At the moment my neighbours and I follow good recycling practices," Mr Frisby' "In our household, rubbish is divided into five separate categories.

"Putrescible waste is used in the compost.

General household garbage goes into TheCaves land fill.

"Glass and cans are segregated and recycled through the scavenger at the land fill or local charities.

"What is going to happen to recycling if we are to use only one bin?" he said.

"How will this shorten the life of The Caves land fill?"

In chief environmental health officer Rick Thessman's report to council he said The Caves landfill dump would be easier to control if earbage was collected and disposed of at the Yeppoon refuse tip.

"The Caves dump is at times in a mess caused by the indiscriminate dumping of household refuse after hours," he said.

Sue Hutchinson was elected president for a second term. The folloWing members were elected to the executive: correspondence secretary Kathy Breingan; minutes secretary Glenda Healy: treasurer and vice president Michelle Lavin: action director Carlyn Prysbylski.

Dog destroyed after attacking woman, 57 A 57-YEAR-OLD Meikleville Hill woman received 16 stitches to her lower right leg after she was attacked by a dog while walking to the beach on Saturday afternoon.

The woman. Grace Ritchie, had puncture marks to the back of her calf and cuts to her shin when bitten by what was believed to be a Cattle Dog/German Shepherd cross.

She was taken to Yeppoon Hospital for treatment.

Livingstone Shire Council dog control officer Roy Mersh collected the dog from its owners, who were visiting from Rockhampton, on Sunday morning and it was put-down by a veterinary surgeon on Monday morning.

It is believed the dog-owners offered no objection to the decision.

The-woman's husband, Al Ritchie, said the leg wounds were quite nasty. He believed the dog's two front fangs tore across the shin, causing considerable tearing.

He said his wife was still planning to take her daily walks once the leg improved.

The branch also holds monthly meetings to help people whose lives have been affected by the disease.

There is no joining fee and the meetings are held on the third Tuesday of each month at the Nursing Home, Anzac Parade, between the council chambers and the hospital.

Interested members of the community are welcome to attend the meetings which start at 7.30pm.

The next meeting is on Tuesday, July 20.

THE second Capricorn Coast Careers Market is at St Brendan's College on Monday, July 26, from 4pm to 8pm.

"Last year's effort was such a success that we have been invited as part of the official circuit of market days that all universities attend," convenor Col Hennessy said.

"The tri-services defence units will also be in attendance. . "This year the date has been brought forward, so as to be more relevant to students who are making QTAC applications for university.

"Parents are especially invited (any year level) but after 6.30pm is preferred." he said.

"Not only will the three local high schools be participating but Rockhampton schools have also been invited because Career Markets are no

longer held in Rockhampton."

He said unemployed people were also welcome to attend the market.

"Many local businesses and professional people have given their time and promised to attend. Last year the only area missing was the building industry and associated trades." Mr Hennessy said.

"If any builders and tradesmen would like to attend the market, please contact me at St Brendan's, 39 5277 "It promises to be a great opportunity for students and parents to not just find out about what different jobs entail, but more importantly what opportunities exist these days,,land the training or standard required."

Tropical Pine-Fest could start with twang of country music...

COUNTRY and western music fans are in for a smorgasbord of entertainment to start this year's Tropical Pine Fest, if a plan by Yeppoon' s Don and Heather Aitken goes ahead.

The couple are keen C&W music followers and decided they could help themselves, and a number of other groups at the same time, by organising a Central Queensland Country Music Band Championship to start Yeppoon's pineapple festival activities.

C&W bands from all over Australia will be invited to enter the competition which will be held at Keppel Park Racecourse, Yeppoon, on Saturday. September 25.

Proceeds from the night will go to the Yeppoon and District Kindergarten.

Bands are being asked to submit tape recordings, with at least three songs, to a panel of judges which will choose 10finalists to play-off on the big night.

At the final, the 10 selected bands will each play for 30 minutes and be judged on country content, versatility, stage presentation and dress, musical ability and entertainment value.

It will be open to amateur and semi-professional bands containing at least three members.

Semi-professional artists are considered to be those performers who are not solely dependent on entertaining as a living.

The championship will carry a first prize of $1000 with second $3(X) and third $200. Winning bands will also receive trophies and certificates.

Mr Aitken said there was no entry fee for groups wanting to join the championship but if members wanted their taped submissions re-

turned, they would have to enclose $5 for packaging and posting.

He said some bands had already expressed interest in entering the competition and he hoped to receive 40-50 submissions by the Monday. August 16. closing date.

"About five or six years ago we organised a C&W concert at the race track which attracted nearly 15(X) people.

"There is so much variety in country and western music these days that it should make the entries and the final 10 contestants very interesting," Mr Aitken said.

"There's not too many of the old Slim Dusty and Buddy Williams type performers around nowadays with people-like James Blundell and Billy Ray Cyrus leading the way. • "I've always loved country music but now with so many different aspects and styles, it really is exciting." he said.

The championship final at Keppel Park Race Course will feature special guest recording artist, songwriter Evelyn Bury from Bundaberg.

The judging panel to select the final 10 bands will be Bury, Blue Heeler Band guitarist Mark Nuske and Rockhampton performer Nel Carter.

Bands interested in entering the championship should contact Don Aitken on 079 39 1455 or by writing to 1 Birdwood Avenue, Yeppoon, 4703.

Capricornia Arts Consultants • DALE CHILDS at the new home for the Mill Gallery at 30 Arthur Street, Yeppoon.

Mill Gallery opens this Sunday in a new home in Arthur Street THE Mill Gallery moves into a new home at 22 Arthur Street, Yeppoon, on Sunday and for owner Dale Childs it is the realisation of a dream.

This is die gallery's third, and most likely, it's final home. A long lease and room to move is what Dale Childs has been seeking since she first took the plunge and opened the Mill Gallery in 1985 just off Farnborough Road. almost opposite Farnborough State School.

She saw the need fora gallery that could display the works of art created by people living and working on the Capricorn Coast ... but it has not

See our Catalogue Specials OUT NOW Earle Paints James St, Yeppoon - 39 11 4 4 -j Congratulations to Dale Childs & thanks for using our products for The Art Centre

been plain sailing.

Public interest in art has always been high because the works by the many Capricorn Coast artists offer are of such a high standard they deserve support.

But art, like everything else, is subject to such vagaries as recessions.

Dale Childs has weathered the hard years of becoming known and has won support, not just for her gallery but also for the Coast artists.

She has put original works into hundreds of Coast homes where, in the past. prints would have been given pride of place.

Regular showings by artists have given people previously little heard of the chance to make a splash and receive public acclaim.

After moving from Farnborough Road to Anzac Parade, the gallery thrived ... but that brought new problems.

"Almost overnight space became a major problem," she said this week. "I started to dream about a gallery with room to move: with special rooms to display art by different artists: with hanging space to give certain works the room they needed to be fully appreciated.

"This Sunday my dream comes true. The new premises at 22 Arthur Street will provide art buyers with a wide range of works on display under one roof.

"Buyers will be able to see the quality of work available from fellow residents who have worked to develop their talents to the stage where many find their every work snapped up by an eager public.

"These artists deserve support for their dedication ... and The Art Centre. housing the Mill Gallery, is going to help them get the recognition they deserve."

The Gallery opens on Sunday from 10am to 5pm with free entertainment and drinks served throughout the day.

Two exhibitions will be the highlight: intricate bird paintings by Noel Mason and an exhibition of photographs by Siberian photojournalist Alexander Kuznetsov.

• ABOVE: A Special Needs Awareness Group (SNAG) has formed on the Capricorn Coast to assist carers. The group is trying to stop their children being isolated and the first step was a morning get-together at Yeppoon Scout Hall in Ivey Street with the theme 'bring a friend'. The result of morning is an 'adopt-a-friend' programme. If you can help or are interested, phone Julie Mann 39 1206, Jan Kibble 39 4749 or Debbie Bayton 39 6565.

WANTED Friends: Are you dedicated? Caring? Wanting to expand your ideas? Would your family like to have occasional involvement with someone with a disability?

SNAG (Special Needs Awareness Group) is a group of parents who recognise their children can be socially isolated and deprived. The group is in the process of evolving an 'Adopt-a-friend' programme. They need to build a register of people who are willing to be aware and enrich their own family life by being involved on a social aspect with the children.

How? - a movie once a month: weekend barbecue; beach activity. By involving your family. you will make a difference to the lives of these special children and encourage more awareness and acceptance.

who contributed "Maggie" and "Pearly Shells".

Rockhampton couple George and Maureen Turner were pleasing with the duets "If I Give My Heart To You" and "There Goes My Everything". They were recalled later in the afternoon to present "You're the only Star in my Blue Heaven" and George produced a lively and tuneful mouth organ medley.

Alf Marcombe contributed "Happy Days and Lonely Nights" and "Big Ben", Joe O'Sullivan "How do you Buy Killarney" and "Good-bye to Rome" and Rockhampton visitor Doreen Svensen attracted audience participation with "By the light of the Silvery Moon" and "I'll Be Your Sweetheart".

A highlight of the instrumental items was the clarinet duet of Arthur Lawn and Tony Ceff with piano accompaniment by Marge Cornell.

Arthur and Tony also contributed saxophone solos to the piano accompaniment of Marge.

Among those who enjoyed the afternoon were eight inmates of the Gus Moore Nursing Home and one of them, Syd Robinson, pleased with his recital of "St George and the Dragon".

Arthur Lawn gave an impersonation of a long-haired exponent of the piano and he had to repeat the humorous episode for the benefit of the ladies who had supplied the afternoon tea and who were busy cleaning up at his first sortie.

Stella Lubach and Marie Zonca won the mon te carlo.

Most gardens fall off during July and August and this was reflected in the less than usual colourful stage front decorations, but come September the gardens of Nancy Devantier, MargeCornell, Beryl ConnorandJoe0'Sullivan will be back to normal and so will the floral display at Yeppoon Pensioners' League afternoons.

Compere Marge Cornell extended birthday wishes to Lynda Leech, Thelma Legh, Phyl Hamilton, Elsie Llewellyn, Phyllis Quinn, Ruby Harris, Marj Griffith. Arthur Lawn. Gladys Scott, Alice Cooper. And adding to her many duties, Marge found time to tell socialgoers about the end of the pub with no beer and the definition of what is a senior citizen.

Lucky doors were held by Maureen Kelly, Marj Griffith, Beatrice Cox, Jessie Phillips, Gladys Scott, Gert Marcombe, Joyce Veach, Maureen Dinsdale, Alma Cooper and Ken Dexter.

A special raffle of an ornament, made and given by Maureen Warwick. was won by Yeppoonite Lorna McIntyre.

Fruit and vegetable trays given by Dick and Betty Ty rer went to Phyl Hamilton and S Watson and a tray given by the league was won by Mrs Wills and a fruit and vegetable tray given by Chris Newton went to Gus Moore Nursing Home inmate Mavis Beatham.

[Spectacle Maker Monday to Saturday

Story saddens IWAS saddened to read in the Mirror that a 5am night-club closing time is being considered.

For several years I drove a taxi in Townsville and saw what happened there when closing hours were extended from 3am to 4am and then to 5am.

In my opinion, there was more litter, more lost purses and wallets, more vandalism, more personal abuse, more physical assaults, more gang beatings. more robberies, and more general selfishness with less concern shown for others.

The night drivers all knew that the later it got, the worse the passengers became, and the less one enjoyed bringing them home.

I think the problems are caused by excessive drinking.

Extending night club hours will only lead to worse hangovers for the patrons, and more headaches for the rest of us.

- John Carney, Cliff Street, Yeppoon.

' Can they suffer?

THE question is not, can they reason? Nor can they talk? But can they suffer?

I am totally against cosmetic tests on animals. I believe that animals should not suffer for our vanity. It is neither right, necessary, nor always scientifically accurate to test skin and hair products on animals.

Force feeding of cosmetic ingredients is a commonplace procedure when testing lipsticks, hair dyes and other make up preparations.

It is repulsive, it necessitates forcing vast quantities of test materials down the throats of animals, causing prolonged and agonising pain.

Rabbits have their heads held in clamp like devices as they pour concentrated shampoo into their eyes. Metal clips are used to keep their eyes permanently open.

Why condone this cruel industry when avail-

able on the market is an excellent range of beauty preparations that are neither made from nor tested on animals. If you would like a list of brand names that do not test on animals, write to me and I will gladly send you a copy.

- Millie Knowles, Prospect Street, Yeppoon.

Mabo 'conspiracy' ON the surface, the federal government's portrayal of the Mabo decision and other Aboriginal land claims, portrays a humanitarian aspect.

But, below the surface it scrubs up to a totally different set of circumstances. The sole intent of what has transpired. is to increase and inflame hatred between whites and blacks to a point where it turns into civil insurrection between both people to an end result of lead being slung between each other.

Having achieved the government-engineered desired effect, it allows the government to call in the United Nations to help put down this engineered insurrection.

Once the UN gets a foothold in our country it will - with government complicity - take over, and Australia will become a UN directorate and we will come under UN law and will lose all sovereign rights to our country.

This is the conspiratorial concept behind granting recognition of Aboriginals being the original owners before colonisation.

So, consider the ramifications of what is below the surface with land claims and don't play the hand the government has dealt.

It doesn't matter whether we are black, white, brindle, have a glass eye or a wooden leg, we are all Australians and Australia belongs to us and that is what we have to concentrate on and maintain that criteria.

Australia is the best country in the world let's not lose it through hot headed red-neck idiosyncrasies black or white.

PROMISING NOVICES FROM CLUB AND PINE BEACH EMU Park Bowls Club started with a good social day sponsored by Ca.stlemaine Perkins this week with the day well attended and including some promising novice bowlers from The Club and Pine Beach Hotels.

A club spokesperson said toucher prizes went to K Barry, G Hannaford, M Kilby, M Ambrose. P Cosgrove, H Erry, K Zettl, R Gore. G Pollard and P Whitman.

"The winners of the day were E White, F Argall, E Bond and N McQuinn," the spokesperson said.

"Sunday's Larry Owens Butchers day was cancelled due to the much Welcomed rain and is rescheduled for this Sunday, July 18."

GREAT. TURN-UP OF PAST PRESIDENTS AT YEPPOON• WITH a great turn-up of past presidents to Yeppoon Bowls Club on Wednesday and made up by social bowlers, a top day was had by all players.

The past presidents were marginally beaten on points, probably due to convivial hospitality, by.undisclosed points. Social winners-for the occasion were L Taylor, H Docherty, J Shepherd and Elwin Hawtin. A great occasion to meet old acquaintances.

Friday mixed triples, again well attended, but the magic score was not attained, therefore proceeding to $170 for this Friday. Social winners were a team of C Dochcrty, Jean Collins and R Griffen. Congratulations to winners, and names in for this Friday early please.

RETRAVISION here!

MURPH'S RETRAVISION is the new name on the Capricorn Coast for household appliances ... and it means big value for customers.

Owner John Bretz. who opened his electrical store on July 1. 1976, was one of the original tenants of the Savemore Shopping Centre.

He said the move to Retravision was part of his aim to still be trading in Yeppoon into the 21st century. "I was an independent when the store first opened but after 12 years I joined the Electricentre buying group to be able to provide lower prices." he said this week.

"That was in 1988. In the same year I became a Tandy Dealer and brought the benefits of their electrical and electronic products, and their toys. to the Coast.

'This year. when Savemore owners QIW announced massive expansion plans. I decided I wanted to be a major tenant with a bigger store.

"Tbre was only one way that could be achieved ... I joined Retravision, the biggest electrical group in Australia with 472 stores across Australia."

Mr Bretz said the savings and product range made his store so competitive he fully expected to remove the need for local people to shop in Rockhampton because there were now two major electrical retailers on the Coast.

"Retravision's bulk-buying power means it is often able to secure a number of 'exclusive' models covering a wide range of appliances ." he said.

• MURPH'S RETRAVISION ... an important new name for an established business in the Savemore Shopping Centre.

WHITEGOODS AVAILABLE, NOW! PSST! PSST! You want to buy a freedge.

Mister? Perhaps, pretty lady, you are looking for a freezer?

If you are you can buy them, right now, from Murph's RetraVision in the Savemore Shopping Centre.

No. you won't see them on the floor in the shop because of a slight problem ... there isn't enough room to display them.

But he can buy them in especially for you with service and installation available.

"I know it's not the same as opening the lid of an automatic washing machine and peering

inside at the agitator but I have found already that quite a few people know exactly what they want and they prefer to buy locally because of the benefits of dealing with someone they know," Murph's RetraVision owner John Bretz said this week.

"Anyone who would like to know my price only has to ask. I will bend over backwards to help."

Mr Bretz said he would be offering a full range of whitegoods when his new premises became available in the expanded Savemore Centre.

TASTY DEMONSTRATIONS! FANCY a cup of coffee? How about some fried rice or some stir-fry? A sizzling sausage would really top it off, wouldn't it?

If that's what you fancy drop in Murph's RetraVision today and tomorrow.

Call in, spend some time watching then taste the samples from the Black & Decker products demonstrations.

Black & Decker Fry Pans, Coffee-makers.

Photo of mystery wreck on Gt Keppel given to resort's boss

`-

A PHOTOGRAPH of a mystery ship wrecked on Great Keppel Island last century has been given to the resort's management.

The ship, which strangely vanished without trace, was photographed in the late 1920s or early 1930s.

A cloud surrounds the history of the boat which is believed to be about 30m (100ft).

Bill Leeke, who spent his early years on the island but left to join the Navy in 1936. sent the photograph to the island management recently.

Resort assistant manager Mark SavageMorton is planning to place the picture with other memorabilia in the memorial Leeke family homestead on the island.

It is believed an island resident took the photograph some time in the late 1920s or early '30s.

Mr Leeke. 75. now lives near Beenleigh, in southern Queensland. but still often visits the Coast and Keppel Island.

He remembers climbing on the wreck as a child and how it suddenly disappeared sometime in the early '30s.

Mr Leeke said he felt neither sand nor water reclaimed the wreck but that vandals set tire to it.

The wreck was beached upside down on what is now known as Wreck Beach and according to Mr Leeke was forced so far up onto the beach it must have been the victim of a cyclone.

"No reliable information has been gained on the identification of the vessel or the fate of its crew, passengers or cargo," he said.

"I don't think there could have been any survivors because the island was populated by Aborigines right up to the early 1900s and because the hull was upside down, it probably capsized.

"For the hull to be so far above the highwater mark, she must have been driven by a powerful gale or cyclone.

"Assuming the wind direction was the usual south-easterly, it is possible the ship struck Bald Rock before beaching.

"I don't think any other wind direction could have put the wreck where it was.

"I recall there was no sign of a propeller or shaft orifice and no indication of machinery, engine or boiler beds.

"The ship must have been a pure sailing vessel, either a ketch, schooner or barquentine.

"There were many ships lost without trace and with all hands along the Queensland coast during the last century.

"My investigations indicate this was one of those disasters.

"Some diligent scuba-diving near Bald Rock could well uncover some relics, possibly the anchor, as I remember the entire stern was missing.

"In the photograph a man is pictured standing on the keel, giving an idea of the ship's size. possibly about 5(X) tons."

Mr Leeke fondly recalls his early days on the island and his family's sheep grazing on the island's valley section.

"My family had a lease in the middle section of the island.

"The southern part of Keppel has always been kept for the public."

Mr Leeke hoped the photograph would serve as a reminder of the island's colourful history.

• ABOVE: (from back left) Kinka Lodge's Brian and Greg Hose, Leanne and Neville Smith and (front) Judy Hose and Judith Watts ... nearing 20 years of operating a number of businesses on the Capricorn Coast.

Kinka Lodge owners looking back over 20 years of tourism TWENTY years ago, three people were looking for a business to purchase on the Capricorn Coast when they "fell in love with Kinka Beach".

They bought Kinka Lodge and in the ensuing years have enjoyed a pleasant life-style and c....,ken part in a wide variety of endeavours.

Brian and Judy Hose and friend Judith Watts have developed Kinka Lodge into a popular holiday centre for many regular guests.

Judy and Brian lived in Lorne, Victoria, before heading to the Coast with friend Judith Watts.

Brian worked as an abalone fisherman in the cold waters of Bass Strait before deciding the tropical water of Keppel Bay was a far more inviting proposition.

Brian andJudy Hose initially became friends with daughter Leanne's primary school teacher Judith Watts in Victoria and together they ventured north - Judith Watts to continue teaching Leanne on their travels.

When they arrived, the two women went looking for something to read and their resultant disappointment created the Yellow Door Book Exchange in Yeppoon in 1973.

After a number of location changes, they eventually sold the business to the woman who was running the shop for them ... Barbara Wildin, who is now the Livingstone Shire Council chairman.

In 1989 they again had the opportunity to purchase the business, which they did and still operate today.

But their main venture started in October, 1973, when the three bought a newly-renovated but small Kinka Lodge from Greg Goody.

They said when they first moved to the motel, the Kinka Beach area was covered in 23m guinea grass and sunflowers.

Kangaroos, bush turkeys. wallabies and emus were abundant but an ever-increasing number of ho'mes slowly filled the bushland.

Judy Hose said she regretted the change in many ways but was happy with the many wonerful neighbours she had gained.

"There was a certain flair and feeling about Kinka Beach which really impressed us all and despite the changes, it's still present," she said.

Brian said one of the major improvements the residential development had created was the decrease in snake numbers.

"There were plenty around when we first opened and I don't miss them," he said.

Some time later, Brian established a live aquarium fish and export business which he still operates today.

These days, Brian spends about three days a week diving in the waters of Keppel Bay and exports live fish to four centres in Japan.

He has developed a number of leading methods in the field in live-fish harvesting.

Since the two Judiths met, Brian and Judy's daughter Leanne has grown-up, married and now primarily runs the Yeppoon book exchange store.

Brian, Judy, Judith. Leanne and her husband Neville are now joint owners of Kinka Lodge and all live on the premises.

When the original three partners purchased the motel, it comprised one one-bedroom unit and six small motel rooms.

One of their first undertakings was to enlarge the rooms and provide self-contained facilities. They also discarded old horse-hair mattresses and bunks from each room.

"They really were terrible old beds and extremely uncomfortable," Judith Watts said.

Kinka Lodge was originally built on four blocks in 1964.

The large site has allowed the owners to create a picturesque garden and upgrade guest facilities to include a barbecue and pool.

They have also built a further two residences at the Lodge to cater for the extended family.

One of the better known landmarks on the Coast. a huge bougainvillea growing over trees at the front of the motel, is often photographed by passing tourists and still raises comments from locals.

The motel operation is jointly handled by all five members of the group on a "who's around and what needs doing" basis.

Brian is still heading out to sea three days a week and Judy Hose is working as a community development officer in Rockhampton.

She said the group had tried to create a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere at the motel which people seem to enjoy.

"We are usually fairly well booked with a large percentage of our clients returning regularly," she said.

Another annual guest for the winter months is Brian and Judy's son Greg from Tasmania.

"He usually arrives when the weather is getting a little too cold down there," Judy said.

At one stage Brian and Judy Hose considered leaving Kinka Lodge in the pursuit of change.

"We lookafaround fora while but stayed on after we simply could not find anywhere as nice as Kinka Beach to live," Judy said.

Batts defeats McNamara in district singles THE final of the Yeppoon Bowling Club district singles, where the score did not indicate the standard of play, resulted in EleanorBatts defeating Ivy McNamara.

Eleanor got away to a good lead but McNamara levelled the score at 12-all.

A club publicity officer said on the day. Batts played too consistently for her opponent and now will represent Yeppoon Ladies Bowls Club in the interclub district singles.

"In the other final, the C-singles, Maureen Vincent also played consistently for Yvonne Riordan," the officer said, "Over the last several ends Von fought back gallantly, but like the previous game. had allowed her opponent too much of a lead.

"Congratulations to both Maureen and Eleanor.

The club's wishes go with Eleanor when she defends the title in Rockhampton.

"The champion pairs was a real cliff hanger right to the end with M Cruickshank and J Beasley just scraping in by one point, to defeat E Saxby and D Engel.

"Both semi-finals of the champion triples were played and ended in a win for J Bashford, I Ogg, H Ingle over E Hinton, M Freeman and J Beasley; while M Vincent, J Hoare and I McNamara defeated P For-

tune, M Bradley and M Yewdale.

"In club pairs, P Fortune and M Manthey defeated L Goodwin and M Yewdale, and a battle between two reconstructed teams finished with only one point deciding the winner. J Bashford and R Maud defeated .1 Collins and T Deacon.

"Club triples featured another reconstructed team with new player Cynthia Galloway, playing in her first competition, lead for the winning team of B Exton, H Villiers and E Batts against L Schultz, F Denney, D Engel and M Manthey.

"Trophy winners for the afternoon were I Cooper, J Cain and R Maud.

"Competitions for 9am July 20, (umpire E Saxby) are: Consistency singles, H Engle v Y Riordan (J Bashford): .1 Beasley v J Hoare (M Vincent); champion pairs, I Carpenter, M Stewart v M Manthey, E Batts. l.l5pm (umpire R Wass): Champion fours, J Barber, J Collins, P Childs, I McNamara v J Bashford, Y •Riordan, M Manthey, E Batts; club triples, J Rickter, M Vincent, M Yewdale v R Goody, I Ogg, M Greaves.

"All players please note the office staff have requested both visitors and members to have your name in by noon, and your fees paid by 12.45pm.

"Conic on everyone, have some thought for the office staff, they also have to be on the green the same time and have work to do."

Swans take BITS to pieces in both top grades.

AFTER all the hype surrounding Boyne IslandTannum Sands this season, Saturday's game against Yeppoon was keenly awaited.

A club spokesperson said there was talk in the town that the Swans didn't have the goods to match it with BITS. "These doubts were quickly shattered when Swans came out in the first quarter and hanged on seven quick goals to Boyne Island's three points," the spokesperson said.

"The forward line excelled, with a great display of marking and run-on play.

"Adam Dundas-Taylor kicked two freakish goals from outside 30 metres, which brought the crowd to its feet, and lifted the team.

"Swans coaching staff pulled off a major coup by playing a bigger, stronger centre combination, which clearly won 80 percent of the middle contests.

"Three of these guys, Steve Lauritz, Justin Roth and Aaron Thompson figured in the match awards.

"After a lull in the second quarter where Boyne

bounced back, Yeppoon re-asserted itself.

"Yeppoon played a classic rebounding, run- onstyle of football with a lot of the attacking moves starting with Mark Taylor, Dominic Pekin and the Belot boys in the backlinc.

"The so-called unbeatable Boyne Island forward line was at best embarrassed by the Swans' backmen who were tight, tough and disciplined.

"A sign of a good, versatile side is the number of goal kickers, and on Saturday Yeppoon had 10.

"On the forward line, Nic Basham, Bryan Cruickshank and Adam Dundas-Taylor finished off well and fought hard all day to make sure the ball stayed there."

Final score Yeppoon 19-20-134 to BITS 10-8-68.

Best players: S Lauritz (mug); M Taylor (Pacific dinner); A Thompson -(Pizza Pizzazz); J Roth (Welfare's petrol); N Basham (Nesters photos).

Yeppoon High XV shows dramatic improvement SHOWING a dramatic improvement in form . and commitment. Yeppoon High School XV pressured the more fancied Grammar XV into errors and loss of possession this week.

In a spirited and hard fought game ,Yeppoon played good basic 15-man rugby to force a final losing scoreline of only 5-3.

A club publicity officer said narrow misses with attempts for a penalty and a field goal could well have seen the game go Yeppoon's way.

"Yeppoon High, another team from the Coast. along with Cap-Coast Under-I9 and Agrade, displayed total forward pack dominance." the officer said.

"In the set play, powerful scrums saw YHS take a good percentage of tighthead feeds, winning more ball in the line-outs and in the loose

play.

"Taking possession in the nick and maul and leading the forward pack charge was Albertos Restaurant man-of-the-match lock Brett Shackleton. He was well supported by tight five partners Jay Herbert and Tom Olsen.

"The talented back row combination of number eight, Michael Morley and Hankers, Ethan White and Leith Mavin, along with the outside backs and fullback Nathan Farlow, showed a lot of potential.

"They made good ground. retaining possession for secohd and third phase play. Inspired defence by centres Daniel Iffltuid and Brett Chamberlain slowed the Grammar backline and halte.d the flashy set moves that Grammar had made its trademark in earlier eameq.

"Today, Friday, YHS play St Brendan's College at 4pm.

"Another team of note is YHS Under-13 rugby union side, which has so far not lost a match in this season.

"This rates the side as having an excellent chance of the top position in the grand final.

"Two of the players represented CQ in Brisbane recently, showing the depth of talent the Coast high school' is producing.

"Joseph Twidale and Xerxes Ustick will be players to watch.in the future.

"Under-13 coach Matthew Duckwitz along with 1st XV player Joe Geddes. both attended the coaching course in Rockhampton to extending their knowledge and understanding of the game."

All courts full for Masters ALL 24 courts in Yeppoon, Emu Park and the Capricorn International Resort will be put to use this weekend when an estimated 200 players converge on the Coast for the Annual Capricorn Junior Masters Tennis Tournament.

Under age players from all parts of Central Queensland will take part in the championship, which is the major annual event of the Capricorn Coast Junior Tennis Association.

Players from Maryborough to Mackay and from the west as far as Blackall will compete in a number of age division titles tomorrow and Sunday.

Some of the Coast players considered to be in with a real chance of success are Benita Williams in the 16-year girls, Ryan Shields in the 12-year boys and Sam Lloyd in the 10-year boys.

Many of the 200 players have been billeted to homes in the area.

Players are asked to be at the Cooee Bay Hall by 8am tomorrow with hats, lunch and drinks although children playing in away venues will be able to order their lunches.

A barbecue will be held at the Cooee Bay complex at the end of each day and presentations will be held after the finals on Sunday.

Railway Hotel Darts Club (Annual General Meeting

FORMER Emu Park carpenter Key Draper's home has rooms, wardrobes, cupboards and shelves full of,sporting trophies.

They were won at sports ranging from cricket, soccer, golf, bowls and darts.

The latest addition to his collection is the top player award in the recently completed first season of the Capricorn Darts Association.

Draper won the Best Aggregate trophy for being the highest points-scoring player in the Cgrade competition while captain of the fourthfinishing Pine Beach Hotel, Emu Park.

Although the team had a disappointing finish in the finals, Draper's consistency throughout the season won him the coveted top-player award as well as the Most-Singles-Won trophy, recording 16 wins from 18 games.

It gives him two top-player awards in succession after taking the D-grade second competition trophy with Dad's Army last year.

Four seasons ago, Draper had not thrown a dart but since has won two premierships and a third and fourth placing.

He won the E-grade aggregate score award in 1990 and was runner-up in D-grade in 1992.

Apart from the many dart medallions, trophies and badges. Draper is also the current Cgrade champion at the Emu Park Bowls Club and was B-grade champion at the Emu Park Golf Club for four successive years.

Draper said he gave golf away a number of years ago but still enjoyed a social round.

One award which seemed to take pride-ofplace was a hole-in-one trophy scored at Emu Park's no-7 hole.

Although the precise year of the rare feat was not remembered or inscribed on the keepsake. the ball mounted on a stand. "it probably was about 12 years ago".

"I played goal-keeper in soccer and also cricket as a younger man but they wanted me to go to Brisbane and I didn't." he said.

"Right now I love my bowls and will be playing darts with the Pine Beach again this season.

"While I'm enjoying it and doing reason= ably well, I may as well keep going."

BANKS these days probably cringe at the thought of publicity but here's a little item that shows the human face of banking. Back in the late 1940s and early 1950s little boys used to hang, around barber shops hoping to catch a glimpse orthe magazines the men were able to read. There was some pretty racy stuff around in those days ...

Man, Man Junior, Saturday Evening Post! Anyway, the pictures in the Man and Man Junior magazines were usually of poor people (women) who couldn't afford to buy clothi ng and had to pose for photographs with next to nothing on. These days we live in a far more enlightened society and no child lives in poverty because it is the 1990s ... but it seems a certain bank in Yeppoon has found a young girl who is still poor. On Saturday afternoon, on full view through the window, there was a magazine picture of a poor girl who was fishing to try and catch some food for the table. This poor girl could not afford clothing and stood facing the window wearing a leather thing around her waist into which you put a rod ... and that's all! Still, despite being poor, she was smiling and, underneath the picture was her name and some details about "Jolly Jane" and "grabbed by giant groper" and other alliteration. It was a very interesting article and photograph, and much appreciated ... and thoroughly deserved the "national" exposure the bank gave it!!!

•• • THINGS you notice department ... a car driving slowly through the Savemore Shopping Ce ntre carpark pushing a shopping trolley with its bumper bar. What's unusual? Well, it was tam on Friday!!!

• • • WORDS of wisdom are all around us ...sign at Ampol Service Station, Gympie: The rules otj: success won't work unless you do!!! • •• • COAST family helping Mum cook dinner on weekend ... Dad was barbecuing. son was making tomatoes and onions, Mum was buttering bread and other son offered chips. Mum asked how son was going to do the chips ... "By phone," he said. putting in order at nearest fish shop!

•• • AND now for something serious ... businessman (not person) wants to know why Yeppoon looks so daggy? He has just come back from Ball ina in northern NSW and reckons that town is so pretty it made him cry to come home. Flowers and palm trees made the NSW town's business centre a pleasure to visit. Returning home he was saddened when the realisation hit him that, for a coastal town. Yeppoon did not convey a tropical message. He reckons flowers, masses of them, would make such a difference. And better footpaths. and less litter (no litter, he would prefer) and a beachfront that had sand. Even the grassed area was neglected because people had worn tracks in it. "If people make tracks those tracks should be made official with pavers to remove the tacky look," he said. It's been said before, and no doubt it will be said again ... but sooneror later, something has to be done with the main street!
