Cash, tips taken in cafe break in STAFF at Flock Cafe in Mornington arrived at work Monday morning to find shards of glass spread all over the floor after burglars had smashed their way in through a glass door overnight.

Owner Amy Caulfield said there was “literally glass everywhere in the shop – even in the kitchen”.

“We were trying to clean it up while serving customers their morning coffees at the same time,” she said.

The thieves had stolen $450 from the tips jar and the $300 float from the till.

“We are learning from that,” she said. “We won’t be leaving so much in future.”

The cafe, in Dava Drive, has suffered from a spate of vandalism, including glued locks and spray paint.

But Ms Caulfield stood firm on social media: “Walking into work at 5.45am this morning to this ... you baddies out there aren’t going to get us down. You can take the till but you can't stop the coffees,” she posted.

Detectives are reviewing CCTV footage.

Shire ‘working through’ Pillars policy Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THERE’S still no sign of fencing to close off the popular swimming spot the Pillars – as decreed by a Mornington Peninsula Shire Council meeting on 24 January.

At that meeting, councillors voted to erect temporary fencing to close off the site for a two-year trial, pending discussions with Aboriginal Affairs Victoria and the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning.

They also voted to appoint an officer to promote awareness and educate visitors on the need to close the Pillars to

protect its cultural heritage, preserve the natural environment and reduce the number of visitors jumping from the cliff face.

Property and strategy manager Yasmin Woods said last week the council was “in the process of developing an implementation plan and working through required approvals to implement its decisions”.

“Letters have been sent to Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, the Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change, and the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs,” she said.

“The shire is currently working

through the implementation plan as per the council decision. This includes working with DELWP on gaining support for the project.”

She said rangers and Victoria police would continue to monitor the site, undertake parking patrols, and discourage people from accessing the area.

Since that January meeting, the shire has placed high-pedestrian activity and cliff warning signs on the Esplanade; banned alcohol on a trial basis; put in no-stopping November-April parking restrictions on one side of streets with high parking demand; put bollards in strategic locations along the Esplanade to prevent parking and allow a space

for pedestrians to walk, and maintained weekly litter collection in surrounding streets.

Ms Woods said nearly 1000 infringements had been issued on Deakin Drive and Marguerita Av over the past two years. Four shire rangers patrol the area for two hours every day from December to March. Police patrol from 3pm daily during January, including along the Esplanade in Mornington.

“VicRoads continues to trim roadside vegetation along the Esplanade to create more space for pedestrians to walk along the road shoulder,” she said.

The shire previously voted to write

Denture Perfection

to Aboriginal Affairs Victoria seeking their direction to reinforce and protect the cultural heritage values of the Pillars in accordance with the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act. It also voted to write to DELWP to seek their “direction and advice on putting in place legal processes to prohibit public access to the Pillars”.

“In the event that the shire fails to gain support for the resolutions, Mornington Peninsula Shire will commence the process of handing back the Committee of Management responsibility to DELWP for the Pillars section of the Mount Martha Foreshore between Ellerina Rd and Bay Rd.”

Pet expo faces the axe after 10 years Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire councillors are likely to drop the Peninsula Pet Expo which has been running for the past decade.

A report to councillors says the free expo at Rosebud – originally known as the Pet and Pony Expo - has become unviable because of the declining number of visitors and a doubling of the cost to $80,000.

“Furthermore, there are limited animal-related entertainers and stallholders available to take part,” communication, media and events manager Mark Kestigian stated in a report to council’s Tuesday (23 May) meeting.

Mr Kestigian said many of the stallholders who had been provided with “free marquee hire” for past two events had said they would not be involved if they had been charged.

Mr Kestigian said there were alternative ways for the shire to raise awareness about responsible pet ownership, including microchipping.

The expo’s “agricultural show elements” included milking, blacksmithing, sheep herding and horsemanship, obedience demonstrations and displays.

“Recent exit surveys and reviews of the expo have revealed decreasing crowd numbers due to factors including change of venue, similar pet exhibitions held in neighbouring municipalities and competing events on the same day,” Mr Kestigian stated.

“With the increasing number of events on the peninsula, there are already more than 30 events held each year that are funded by council

and which are characterised as family fun day events.”

Mr Kestigian said the expo had been held every two years since 2011, but had failed to show any “measurable increase in attendance”.

Fewer than 2000 had attended the November 2015 event.

Mr Kestigian has urged councillors to discontinue the Peninsula Pet and spend its budget allocation on “responsible pet ownership, community awareness and other promotional activities”.

Jazz at the bowl ACCLAIMED jazz singer Marie Wilson will perform at Frankston Bowling Club on Sunday 28 July.

The Sydney vocalist, who was born in India of Anglo-Indian parents, has carved a career in jazz since migrating to Australia in the 1960s.

In 1988, she was named NSW Jazz Singer of the Year, followed up by Mo Awards in 1995 and 1999.

She has worked with Australia’s leading musicians including James Morrison, Don Burrows, Julian Lee and Kenny Powell.

Wilson’s first LP, I Thought About You, released on the Larrikin label in 1984, became the first Australian jazz vocal album to be released in the US. She will perform at David May’s Jazz at the Bowl with Neil Taylor (piano), Trevor Firth (reeds),Leon Heale (bass) and Allan Smith (drums) from 6-9pm. Entry $12. Details 5945 7773.

Rent stress resides in ‘affordable’ suburbs Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au RYE, Rosebud and Hastings are just three out of seven Melbourne suburbs where single parents on a low income can avoid what are described as “severely unaffordable” rents.

The latest rental affordability index put out by the Council to Homeless Persons shows that a single parent on a low income would still experience rent stress even in these suburbs where rents are described as “unaffordable”.

“It’s a dire situation to be in if you’re

a single parent, struggling to look after children, scraping by on a low income and trying to find a place to live,” the council’s CEO Jenny Smith said.

“With so few affordable options, no wonder so many slip into homelessness.”

The rental affordability index produced by National Shelter and SGS Economics compares the cost of rent with various household incomes. It shows there are no suburbs where a single parent on a low income would find affordable rent.

“There is no escaping high Melbourne rents: it’s a choice of living

somewhere unaffordable or severely unaffordable,” Ms Smith said. “The index shows just how bleak it is if you’re poor and trying keep a roof over your head.”

Statistics show that women fare worst – particularly if they have left a violent relationship and are looking for a safe, affordable place to live. “Women and children are forced to either live in extreme poverty while paying high rent, or move far away from jobs, schools and support services and with high transport costs to find somewhere more affordable,” Ms Smith said.

The homeless persons council says

the federal government needs to do more to boost social housing stock so that low-income earners have an alternative to sky-high private rentals.

The seven Melbourne suburbs where a low-income single parent would avoid “severely unaffordable” rents are all more than 35 kilometres from central Melbourne.

“Rents in those suburbs still leave a single parent on a low annual income of $40,000 paying more than they can afford,” Ms Smith said.

She said the other “more affordable” suburbs were Melton, Brookfield, Wyndham Vale and Pakenham.

The report’s release follows on from the federal budget which welfare organisations say did “not go anywhere near far enough in tackling the housing affordability crisis which underlies Australia’s rising homelessness”. “[It] leaves the vast majority of renters no better off,” Ms Smith said.

“It won’t deliver the massive injection to social housing that we need. It hasn’t properly tackled negative gearing and capital gains tax and there’s no boost to rent assistance to help lowincome renters in the private rental market.”

Landscape views boxed in PUTTING vista views in the picture is the focus of an art exhibition at Frankston Art Centre’s Cube 37 Gallery featuring the work of Chisholm TAFE students.

The Little Landscapes 9x5 Exhibition displays student artists’ paintings of Stony Point vistas on small boards inspired by the Heidelberg School of Melbourne painters who displayed works on cigar boxes first produced in 1889.

Emily Dunstan, 35, is studying for a diploma of visual arts at Chisholm TAFE in Frankston. She is “following a passion” and hopes to work as a curator in an arts gallery after graduation.

“We visited an area where the fishermen are in Stony Point that is beautiful,” she said.

“It wasn’t perfectly picturesque but

12 MAY – 9 JULY 2017

the fishermen were gutting the fish and throwing gummy sharks out on to the sand and it added a grotesque edge to it. Some people painted that.”

Students works were painted in the “en plein air” tradition of reflecting changing light and tides. n The Little Landscapes 9x5 Exhibition is on display at Frankston Arts Centre, Cube 37 Gallery, 37 Davey St, Frankston until 3 June, Tues-Fri 9am-5pm, Saturdays 9am-2pm, entry free.

Council snubs MP over club’s ‘ridiculous’ rent Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au HASTINGS MP Neale Burgess says he is outrage “at the incredibly harsh decision of the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to increase rent tenfold for the local Hastings Club”.

Mr Burgess has joined other critics upset with the shire demanding the club pay “a ridiculous $42,000 per year, rising to more than $52,000 in year three, up from just $4000 currently”.

He says the council has refused to meet with him “to discuss this outrageous rent increase”.

Mr Burgess wants the shire to grant the club a 21-year lease with “a peppercorn rent”.

“Any rent charged above this amount is simply council taking money from

Hastings sporting clubs.”

The club last month said it “cannot be a signatory” to the proposed lease as it is “a contradiction of the Gambling Act (2003)” (“Sports club to fight rent rise” The News 25/4/17).

“Is it the intention of [the shire] to knowingly contravene the [act]?” The Hastings Club president Peter Lewis stated in a letter to the shire property operations leader Greg Collins.

The shire’s property and strategy manager Yasmin Woods said “all legislation” had been taken into account when assessing the club’s [future] rent.

In her report to council’s Monday 27 March meeting Ms Woods said the club had been paying $4000 a year in rent since 1996, and if three-yearly reviews had been made the current rent would have been $30,250.

Call for witnesses to boy’s death FIVE weeks on, WorkSafe Victoria is still investigating a Rye Easter carnival tragedy in which a six-year-old boy was killed.

Eugene Mahauariki, of Dromana, died when he fell from the Cha Cha ride, 5.15pm, Monday 17 April.

WorkSafe last week made the call for witnesses as their investigation into his death continues.

They have been told the boy fell

from a ride that was operating after the carnival had closed to the public. He suffered serious head injuries and was flown to the Royal Children’s Hospital where he died four days later.

Carnival operators Wittingslow Amusements said in a statement it was devastated by the tragedy.

shows a net profit for the year of about $199,000 with its gaming room having an operating surplus of more than $930,000. Gaming revenue increased to $2.22 million in 2016 from $1.99m in 2015.

“The council should not be expected to offer a rental subsidy because the club has an obligation to expend gaming revenue of community services or activities,” Ms Woods stated.

Mr Burgess said The Hastings Club supports “vital grassroots sports, such as footy, cricket, netball and darts”.

“This dramatic and unfair rent increase was imposed without any meaningful consultation; with council simply telling the club this is what your rent will be from now on,” Mr Burgess said.

“The Tooradin Sports Club is very similar to The Hastings Club; it is located on Crown land, is not for profit, has poker machines and supports local sporting clubs. The City of Casey however recognises the important and unique role the Tooradin Sports Club plays in its local community, and therefore charges a peppercorn rent only.

“While Mornington Peninsula Shire claims it will return some of the funds to the Hastings area, it has admitted it will pocket the first $10,000; and there is no guarantee the remaining funds will find their way back into our community.”

Police patrol

Affray charges A MORNINGTON man, 26, and two 24-year-olds from Mt Martha, have been charged with affray after an incident in Main St, Mornington 1.50am, Sunday 14 May. Mornington Peninsula CIU detectives arrested the men after an alleged assault in which a 34-year-old South Australian man received facial injuries. He was taken to Frankston Hospital for treatment.

Natalie Webster, of the Victoria Police media unit, said the men had been bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrate’s Court at a later date.

Alarm sounds THIEVES cut a drop bolt to break into a bathroom business in Mornington, overnight Monday 15 May. Mornington Peninsula CIU detectives said an alarm was activated when they entered Tim Tam Bathrooms, in Bruce St. The owners on Wednesday were still assessing what was stolen, police said.

Door smashed A RYE massage studio was broken into overnight Sunday 14 May. Thieves smashed a glass door to gain entry to Revive Chinese Massage in Napier St and stole an unknown quantity of cash and a laptop computer. Detectives are reviewing CCTV footage.

TV sets missing TV sets were stolen from six rooms at the Peninsula Motor Inn at Tyabb, overnight Sunday 14 May. There was no sign of forced entry to the Stuart

Rd motel, said detectives, who are reviewing CCTV footage.

Stab wounds A MAN presented himself with stab wounds at Rosebud hospital, 6.30am, Saturday 13 May. Mornington Peninsula CIU detectives said the 30-yearold had been stabbed in the shoulder shoulder and hands. He would not answer questions.

Tearful escape A doze of capsicum spray was not enough to subdue a man who fled from police after they noticed stolen plates on his car, Saturday 12 May. Police saw the plates on a Nissan sedan in the car park of the Starmart service station, Moorooduc Highway, Mornington, 2.30am.

They approached the driver but he “became aggressive” and was sprayed.

Undeterred, the man – described as 188cm, solid build, with red hair – jumped in the car and sped off. Police did not pursue him. The investigation is ongoing and CCTV is being reviewed.

Brought to a halt STOPSTICKS were used to catch a car allegedly involved in six evadepolice incidents over the past fortnight in Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula.

THE police air wing was called in to follow a Fiat four-wheel-drive as it travelled from Frankston to Balnarring and back, Saturday 12 May. The sticks were laid across Frankston-Cranbourne Rd, 11pm, and the driver, 22, of Frankston, who was the car’s sole occupant, was arrested. She will be summonsed on multiple traffic offences.

Sports centres ‘talks are not negotiations’ to manage swim centres has been negotiating with Mornington Peninsula Shire council to take over management of peninsula sports centres’,” a shire statement on Facebook said.

“Our CEO Carl Cowie has confirmed that there is no truth to this story. The shire has not nor is it now negotiating with Peninsula Leisure Pty Ltd to assume management of peninsula recreation centres.

“The shire did undertake a request for proposal process last year with several sports centre management groups submitting responses, but no decisions were made to proceed.”

Shire communications manager Mark Kestigian contacted The News to demand a retraction and insist talks are not negotiations. He said he could not answer questions about the request for proposal process “for commercial-inconfidence reasons”.

“We did let people in to come and kick the tyres,” Mr Kestigian said.

It is understood that Belgravia Leisure also notified the shire of its interest in managing shire sports centres.

Belgravia Leisure manages about “100 aquatic, sport, health and wellness facilities across Australia and New Zealand” according to its website, “partnering with over 40 local government and state government authorities”.

Walk beats want: Coastrek team members Jacqui Salter, Joanna Wajsbrem and Christine Lillis after training.

Coastal walk to improve views FOUR Rye women are among about 1900 trekkers gearing up for the adventure fundraiser, Wild Women On Top Melbourne Coastrek, on 26 May. Now in its third year, the trek will challenge 490 teams of four trekkers, each including at least two women, in their walk for 30 kilometres from Koonya Beach, or 60 kilometres from Cape Schanck, to the finish line at Point Nepean.

The event aims to raise $1.5 million for The Fred Hollows Foundation to help end avoidable blindness in some of the world’s poorest communities.

Jacqui Salter, Joanna Wajsbrem and Christine Lillis – a group of mums with children in primary school – have been planning, preparing and training for the adventure challenge in their team Danc-

ing Eros with friend Elise Heslop.

Each team aims to raise at least $2000 to help restore sight among the under privileged.

“I have never done a big walk or run in my life, so I'm interested to see if we can actually do it,” Ms Salter said.

“We are hoping to raise funds to support the great work the Fred Hollows Foundation does. We were astounded to hear that the majority of blindness cases around the world are preventable. We would like to help bring the gift of sight to those in need.”

Since Coastrek began in Sydney in 2010, more than 20,000 trekkers have raised over $16 million for The Foundation.

QUESTIONS remain over negotiations between Mornington Peninsula Shire and a Frankston Council-established company to possibly outsource the management of peninsula sports centres remain unanswered, despite the shire pouring cold water on any such plans.

The shire posted a statement on its Facebook page last week but did not answer several questions for the second week in succession about talks with Peninsula Leisure Pty Ltd to manage Pelican Park Recreation Centre in Hastings, the Crib Point Pool, Civic Reserve Recreation Centre in Mornington and the Somerville Recreation and Community Centre (“Sports ‘in the swim’”, The News 16/5/17).

Peninsula Leisure, the company owned by Frankston Council which operates the Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre (PARC) in Frankston and the Pines Forest Aquatic Centre in Frankston North, expressed an interest in running sports and recreation centres on the peninsula as part of “a request for proposal process” by the shire late last year.

questions about any interest in operating shire sports centres before publication deadline.

Frankston Council CEO Dennis Hovenden and PARC CEO Tim Gledhill have also not answered questions about Peninsula Leisure’s finances and any remuneration paid to Peninsula Leisure’s board of directors.

Frankston Council’s 2016-17 annual budget shows directors fees (PARC) were budgeted at $352,000 over 12 months.

The directors of Peninsula Leisure are – chair Roseanne Healy, also a director on several South Australia boards; remuneration and reward committee chair Barbara Crook; strategy and marketing committee chair David Shilbury; audit and risk committee chair Simon Allatson and Phillip Johnson, chief financial officer of South East Water.

Questions about full financial accounts for Peninsula Leisure have not been answered, but consolidated figures within Frankston Council’s annual accounts show Frankston aquatic centres made a $462,000 “loss” in 2016-17 and are expected to make a $136,000 “profit” in 2017-18.

Frankston councillors will discuss a confidential agenda item called “Peninsula Leisure Core Obligations” on Monday evening (22 May) after May’s public council meeting.

We are dedicated to the belief that a strong community newspaper is essential to a strong community. We exist to serve residents, community groups and businesses and ask for their support in return.

Reconciliation comes to life THE Warringinee group of the Mornington Peninsula, which supports cultural diversity and promotes understanding of issues facing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, will make a presentation at the public council meeting at Rosebud Memorial Hall, 5pm, tonight (Tuesday 23 May).

This is regarded as an important night for the group to showcase what has been achieved by the shire’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community in the past year.

Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend this event featuring a smoking ceremony, traditional welcometo-country, a performance by Dardee Balagamdail Aboriginal Dance Group, as well as guest speakers.

The presentation is part of National Reconciliation Week (27 May-3 June), which celebrates and builds on relationships shared by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and other Australians.

This year’s theme is “Let’s take the next steps”.

The community celebrates the anniversaries of two events this year which symbolise reconciliation: Saturday 27 May is the 50th anniversary of the 1967 referendum in which more than 90 per cent of Australians voted to give the Commonwealth the power to make laws for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and recognise them in the national census.

Saturday 3 June marks 25 years since the High Court made its landmark 1992 Mabo decision which recognised – in law – that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders have a special relationship to the land that existed prior to colonisation and still exists today. This recognition paved the way for land rights or native title.

“Reconciliation must live in the hearts, minds and actions of us all as we move forward, creating a nation and peninsula strengthened by respectful relationships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous peoples,” the mayor Cr Bev Colomb said.

“The shire will continue to work in partnership and be an advocate … to ensure Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders have equal access to local employment and other opportunities.”

Weaver’s workshop A WEAVING workshop will be held at Baluk Arts Studio, 9am-midday, Saturday 3 June, as part of Reconciliation Week. Arrernte artist Kirsty Bell will run the practical workshop with those attending learning how to weave lomandra grass and then taking home their work.

Light borrowing in the black by 2032 Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire is being urged to borrow almost $5 million over the next 15 years for a bulk street lighting LED upgrade.

The new energy-saving lights would pay for themselves over the long-term with annual cost savings expected to be $616,576.

The lights would also be a “significant step forward” in achieving the shire’s carbon neutral policy adopted in February last year, energy and carbon management officer Chris Yorke said .

Councillors will consider the proposal at tonight’s (Tuesday 23 May) meeting.

If adopted, works could begin as soon as October on what is described as “the single largest greenhouse gas emission mitigation project the shire can undertake”.

Annual cost savings are expected to be $616,576.

Mr Yorke forecast the LEDs would reduce the shire’s carbon footprint by 10 per cent.

A study of the street lighting upgrade was commissioned in April last year. The contract was awarded to Ironbark Sustainability, which has reportedly worked with 70 of the state’s 79 municipal councils on energy efficient street lighting.

Most street lighting on the Mornington Peninsula is owned by electricity distributor United Energy. The shire is responsible for paying for and supplying electricity and subsidising the operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the lights.

Health care in homes Bunjil’s eyes on Balance Garden

Of the shire’s 16,684 street lights, 10,729 are mercury vapour lights needing an upgrade. The lights would be bought and installed by the shire before being vested to United Energy. The council will be up for replacement costs over a 12 month warranty period. United Energy will then take over their ongoing operation, maintenance, repair and replacements over a 20 year operating life.

The shire’s finance team has recommended a 15-year loan term for the project which is expected to pay for itself as annual savings will be greater than the principal-and-interest repayments.

The long-term loan will also avoid significant expenditure in year one and, therefore, have minimal effect on the capital works budget in the short term, allowing other projects to proceed, the report said.

Officers are recommending the shire update its 2017-18 proposed budget to include the street lighting project.

OSBORNE Primary School opened its Balance Garden last week, with students, parents, staff and friends listening as assistant principal Helen Peters read the story of Bunjil the Eagle, the Kulin nation creation deity, who sits atop the totem pole.

The garden is an area where pupils can quietly sit under the protective eye of Bunjil, who adorns the top of the totem pole, or challenge their agility playing on the balance beams, running along the bridge and jumping on the wooden stepping stones.

Osborne’s values and tree-emblem logo are carved into the totem made from the trunk of one of the school’s iconic 144-year-old Murray cypress pines.

“When one of the trees died but I stubbornly clung onto the trunk hoping to get it carved,” Ms Peters said. “Finally, we have been able to do that with the carving of Bunjil done beautifully by Angie Polglaze and Greg Carter with his building expertise.

“What they have created is truly amazing and really appreciated by the Osborne community.”

Confidence certificates were awarded at the ceremony while members of the Osborne band: Mikayla (3W), Jorelle (6A) and Axl (6H), added a musical touch.

On stage THE Mornington Peninsula Choral, Frankston Symphony Orchestra and the Australian Youth Choir will perform Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana 2.30pm at Frankston Arts Centre on Sunday 4 June.

Conducted by Thaddeus Huang the performance will also feature soloists Emily Burke, Robert Babaro and Raphael Wong.

FIVE medical clinics in the Dunkley electorate will be part of a nationwide trial of a Health Care Home program enabling people with difficult and complex health problems to remain at home rather than be forced to stay in a hospital.

The program was announced as part of this month’s federal budget. Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt said Health Care Homes services will tailor care to individual patients’ health circumstances in consultation with GPs. “This is an Australian first and although I will be guided by our GPs and those patients taking part, I am hopeful that if the program is a success we will continue to roll it out,” Mr Hunt said in a statement.

Dunkley Liberal MP Chris Crewther and Mr Hunt visited Peninsula Family General Practice in Frankston last week to announce the trial in the area.

Mr Crewther said doctors say patients living with diseases such as cancer and diabetes would benefit from the new program.

“Patients of GP clinics in five locations across the electorate will be eligible to take part in the program which will see their GP develop a plan which coordinates support from other medical specialists and nurses.”

Total Care Medical Group (Frankston), Frankston Healthcare, Headspace Frankston Youth Health Clinic, Peninsula Family General Practice and Mornington Medical Trust are the five clinics taking part in the Health Care Home trial.

The $110 million program will be rolled out in stages to be available at 200 clinics across Australia by December.

Rally calls for action on stadium Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au ABOUT 100 Western Port Basketball Association supporters sent out a clear message to the Mornington Peninsula Shire on Saturday 13 May – they want their stadium at Somerville rebuilt as soon as possible.

The rally, described by the association’s operations manager Tyler Molloy as “awesome”, sought to galvanise support and generate action on rebuilding the 25-year-old stadium which burnt down 12 months ago.

“Certainly it shows people are passionate about getting a new stadium up and running,” Mr Molloy said.

Association president George Yerondais said the protesters were impatient for action on rebuilding the courts.

“We’ve been waiting so long to have courts back and possibly upgraded,” he said. “We are trying hard to keep our players here, but it has been hard because we have stiff competition from other venues, such as Frankston, Mornington, Southern Peninsula and Casey.”

A petition calling for the “urgent rebuilding” of the basketball stadium will be presented to the state government by Hastings MP Neale Burgess.

Mr Burgess said the council should “get on with rebuilding the Somerville basketball stadium”.

“The stadium burnt down 12 months ago and the lack of information being provided by the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has left thousands of local players in the dark about their play-

Mornington Peninsula Shire says it is still negotiating with insurers over cover for the original stadium lost in a fire a year ago.

ing futures,” he said.

“The association has done an excellent job of arranging alternative locations for games to be played, however, the constant uncertainty and travel to 17 replacement courts is taking its toll on the association and its players.”

Meanwhile, a company set up by Frankston Council wants to manage the rebuilt stadium (“City’s company bids to be ‘in the swim’” Page 3).

Speaking in state parliament last week Mr Burgess urged the government to help pay for the rebuilding of

the Somerville stadium.

“It is high time the council and the state government worked together to provide certainty for the Somerville community around dates of the rebuilding of this vital piece of infrastructure.”

The shire’s chief operating officer Alison Leighton last week said “plans for rebuilding … continue with tenders for design and construction to be advertised shortly”.

She said “ground-breaking works would start later this year”, while

background preparation works “continued in earnest”.

Ms Leighton said the shire planned to “seek additional funding for the redevelopment from the state government which, if successful, would allow for construction of two additional basketball courts on the site”.

“Negotiations also continue with the shire’s insurer to reach an agreement for funding that will ensure that the new facility achieves a high standard,” She said.

statement: “That is the most we have heard from the council for a whole year.

“We’ve tried hard over the past 12 months to work with the council but it has been a big disappointment that [it] did not revise the stadium’s insurance [policy].

“This business of negotiating with the insurers is very strange.”

There is speculation that the 25-year-old stadium was insured on a “like-for-like” basis.

“None of that was reviewed or updated before the fire,” Mr Yerondais said.

A shire allocation of $750,000 in its 2016-17 budget may help bridge the gap between the insurance payout of $2.5 million and the $3.25 million cost of a replacement two-court stadium. The cost of a four-court stadium is thought to be around $3.5 million.

“We want four courts as we use up to 15 courts a week, including five on a Friday night,” Mr Yerondais said.

Other venues are at Dromana, Southern Peninsula and Peninsula School.

Mr Yerondais said he hoped to meet with shire representatives next week.

“We are committed to working with the council, but their lack of maintenance, such as regarding the insurance policies, has led to a poor situation.

“We want to achieve one thing and that is to get the facility back in place as well as have the ability to expand and extend.

Masters site an opportunity for the whole peninsula It’s time to end negativity regarding the former Masters site in Mornington. Instead, this excellent site offers a great opportunity for the Mornington Peninsula (“Planners back ‘super’ market” The News 25/4/17). All the hard basic development work has been done. A modern, large building exists with generous parking.

And, as an estate agent would say: Location, location.

A positive attitude needs to be created so that the district can take advantage of this existing facility. Local population is increasing and often it is difficult to park in the Main St retail area and Benton Square is near capacity. It could also cast a retain net to bring people from throughout the peninsula.

The overall retail picture must be examined, both for now and particularly the future. Main St traders obviously want to prosper, but this would still be the case. However, they should also consider their current operations. In particular some staff do not smile and others invite departing customers in late afternoon to “Have a good day”. Get with it.

The developer [of the former Masters site] should be encouraged. A group of suitable people could suggest to them retail opportunities.

Also, perhaps an area could be dedicated to a desirable and attractive tourist attraction.

We have 41 wineries, but varied projects could be considered. For instance, there are a number of private collections of interesting items on the peninsula. Get them together and add to them. It would be an attraction and also a retailer.

Mornington must be proactive and move this project along. Community support is essential, which I discovered when I launched the Kmart concept in Australia years ago.

Master this opportunity. Be active and progres-

sive. Not just now, but for the future.

Howard Bull, Mornington

Not for tender I was very concerned to hear a rumour that Mornington Peninsula Shire’s CEO was considering tendering out home and community care services such as home help and meals on wheels to private contractors.

In our community with almost 30 per cent of elderly people living on $30,000 a year or less – most around the pension-only level of the low $20,000 – this is an appalling proposition.

The reason these services were set up under mainly federal and some state funding was to assist older people on limited incomes who could not afford private services or private health cover to access rebates.

This comprises most older people living in our shire.

With the federal budget announcement that it will be supporting older Australians with a $5.5 billion continuation of the funding arrangements for the Commonwealth home support program over two years from 1 July 2018 - council has no excuse not to maximise these grants and continue support to their residents and ratepayers.

Federal funding for essential home support services includes meals on wheels, personal care, domestic assistance and home maintenance by the shire, nursing by the Royal District Nursing Service, and community transport such as through Southern Peninsula Community Care - to assist older people to keep living independently in their own homes.

I used to co-ordinate home and community care services and manage grant applications for the previous Shire of Flinders. Should council need help to make the most of the HACC/CHSP

Marginal pays off Well, there you have it folks, direct from Martin Dixon’s pen (“Missing in budget” The News 16/5/17). Mr Dixon has apparently only been working for the past two years on our behalf. I wonder if we could have the exact days so that I can check Hansard to confirm his statement?

I wonder if he was as vocal in the house when his [Liberal] lot were in power?

It’s not only Labor that goes missing as far as funding on the Mornington Peninsula is concerned. We were ignored by the Kennett government and the Bailleau/Napthine government as well. Martin Dixon was our representative in both and I don’t ever recall him being very vocal in either of them.

That is why we should make our electorate marginal to ensure that our representative (of whichever party is in) get off their backside to work for us and not the party.

I can cite an example, Susan Davies (a Laborleaning independent) won the seat off the Liberal incumbent in Gippsland some years back and she received heaps of benefits for her electorate from the government of the day.

So, you voters out there, vote to make this electorate marginal.

Paying for education Regarding the federal government’s funding to private schools, I don’t think any taxpayers’ money should be given to private schools as they are private enterprise businesses.

All federal government school funding should go to public schools and TAFE colleges as they are in the public system and the states don’t raise enough money to completely run them to the backward tax system in this country.

The private schools and colleges, including Catholic ones, can increase their fees and the well-off parents will still send their children to those schools without government funding.

The rest will send their kids to the public schools and if there is enough government

funding, the fees could reduce significantly and maybe in the future eliminate them altogether.

Road rudeness rules So he pulls out in front of you from a driveway, shopping centre, street, whatever. Maybe a Muslim, Christian, atheist, even a female. Obviously a pig, or a female dog; 90 per cent probability, rude to boot. The expression, not the animal.

Often he/she then drives off, down hard on the accelerator, meaning what? Urgent necessity, a form of apology or the guilt factor? Doubtful any which way if an ACL member? How about a sign of an apology, hand outside the window, fingers spread apart, or a light installed on the boot saying sorry?

My guess is that same 90 per cent probability factor is about the same for those complaining of the camera settings on Peninsula Link. I travel at the allowed limit while they regularly pass me, meaning at the very least they are travelling in excess of 100kph. Home safely, this time.

Government deficit: truth A report by Amnesty International is critical of both Australia and the government of Papua New Guinea for their under reporting of the truth pertaining to the shooting on Manus Island.

An army shooting at detained refugees is horrible.

Our Immigration Minister, Peter Dutton had already made a nasty allegation regarding the detainees, trying to blacken them in so called “child sex scandal”, which was not true.

The game of shuffling refugees between PNG and Australia goes on and on. So few, such a big fuss. In a world of millions of refugees and countries trying to fit them in it’s rather precious indeed. Grow up Australia.

Patricia Rayner, Somers

Against the wind I wish some people would read letters to the editor properly before they fly into print with an

inappropriate, often silly, reply. An example is the letter from Edmund Burke (“Keeping tabs” Letters 16/5/17) saying that I claim to be “the hero of the local yachting fraternity” (because I once owned a yacht and sailed in bad weather) and that I “suggested the elimination of a harbour at Mornington”. As well, in a previous letter (“Rocks not answer” 11/4/17) he stated that I had “often expressed dislike of sailors,young and old, using Mornington harbour”.

The very opposite of these claims is, in fact, the truth.

His wording and logic indicate that I should adopt a patronising attitude toward him; however, we are not amused. I can’t continue to use extremely valuable newspaper space which is there for readers to express a viewpoint, in denying misrepresentations of what I have said.

On the related subject of the failed 15 tonne concrete wave barrier slabs affixed to Mornington pier: the costs must now be astronomical and they are having another go. The best kept secret in town is how much is it costing, who is paying and who are the beneficiaries?

Please don’t tell me the barriers are to help protect a dozen or so boats, some of which may come undone from their moorings in severe storms which might happen once or twice a year or two.

I have had a thought bubble: utilise the expensive, failed, useless 15 tonne slabs as new moorings; after all, the slab barrier idea must have been somebodies thought bubble in the first place.

Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington

Blame for Adani It is high time to lay to rest the stupid idea of the Adani coal mining project in Queensland. I regard the principal political backers of Adani, our Flinders Liberal MP Greg Hunt and Queensland’s Labor premier Palaszczuk, as the main reasons we’ll be losing our treasured Great Barrier Reef if the mine goes ahead.

I see Greg Hunt as the one who, while environment minister, gave the go-ahead for this disaster against all protestations from environmental groups and many economists. The Queensland government is so far removed from reality, it

can’t see that the consequences of going ahead with this abysmal idea is going to impact its tourism industry in devastating terms, once the reef is damaged beyond recovery. Stop Adani now. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

Shop girl became community leader OBITUARY

Eunice Cain, 17 September 1944–17 April 2017, retailer, community activist

By Mike Hast EUNICE Cain was a driving force behind Mornington Peninsula Ratepayers’ and Residents’ Association of which she was a founding member in 1996.

The lobby group was formed due to concerns about inadequate rubbish disposal by Mornington Peninsula Shire, and to oppose 1997 plans to build a marina at Rosebud.

Ms Cain, who moved to McCrae with her family in 1986, died on 17 April after a short illness, a virulent form of lung cancer. She had smoked from age 14 till 48 when she suffered a suspected heart attack and gave up smoking.

She held several roles with the ratepayer group including secretary and was president for three years between 2008 and 2011. Her successor, Dr Alan Nelsen, said Ms Cain "was a strong personality and a natural leader who did not suffer fools".

Dr Nelsen said Ms Cain played a major role in recruiting a number of professionals with expertise in politics, business, accounting, science and conservation. "This meant the shire had quite a degree of professional skills and political know-how keeping officers and councillors accountable," he said.

The ratepayer group under her guidance tackled the shire on broad issues such as rate increases, shire debt,

planning and policy. The group went to the VCAT many times to oppose inappropriate development, and won many of the cases.

Dr Nelsen said the ratepayer group was "an important influence on the state government not putting tolls on Peninsula Link”.

The group also made submissions on reform of the VCAT, Victorian Coastal Strategy, climate change, changes to the Victorian Planning Provisions, better public transport, and capping of shire rates.

The biggest issue tackled by the

group in recent times was the shire's proposal to build an aquatic centre on Rosebud’s foreshore.

Eunice Cain was a strident opponent of the location although not the pool. As co-founder of Friends of Rosebud Beach and Foreshore, whose volunteers completed extensive revegetation on the foreshore over many years, she was determined this work would not be bulldozed for a pool that could be built inland.

Former The Age journalist and MP News contributor David Harrison said: "Eunice was a doughty fighter

for people's causes, combining immense energy, a whipcrack intellect and a dauntingly direct manner with wonderful human warmth. When stirred, she had a capacity to reduce foes with a single pithy phrase: she did not waste words or suffer fools and was no respecter of rank or reputation."

Her direct manner perhaps had its roots in her upbringing in Manchester, England, where she was the middle child of James and Lilian Steele.

The family immigrated to Australia when she was 12.

Ms Cain left school at 14 and worked at a pharmacy at Flinders St Station. She met her future husband John Cain on the train. They married at Epping in April 1962 when she was 17.

Mr Cain joined the Army in 1963 and in five years they had three children, Vicky, John and James.

They lived a typical Army life, being posted to several bases.

Ms Cain started her retail career at Target and became one of Venture Stores' first female store managers.

In later years the couple travelled in Australia and she put aside her dislike of flying for a trip to Europe and the UK in 2013.

Her hobbies included reading, gardening and barracking for South Melbourne, later the Sydney Swans.

Ms Cain is survived by her husband John; sister Jean and brother Jim; children Vicky, John and James; grandchildren Amanda, Noah, Stephanie, Maddison, Josh and Matt; and step-grandchildren Emily, Josh and Nic. Mike Hast

Plant talk: Author Attila Kapitany, above, is speaking about Australian succulents and boabs and bottle trees, right, which can appear onstrous or cuddly.

Talk about succulents and the life of a boab AUTHOR and succulent expert, Attila Kapitany will be along with pictures to show and knowledge to share at the next meeting of the friends of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Cranbourne.

As well as signing copies of some of his books Kapitany will speak about Australian succulent plants and boabs and bottle trees.

At least 400 of Australia’s 20,000 plant species are considered to have a notable degree of succulence and Kapitany’s talk will touch on some

traditional and modern foods, supply and availability, cultivation and conservation.

Many of these plants have never been planted in gardens before and he will explore some interesting aspects of their usefulness.

Boabs and bottle trees sometimes appear grotesque and monstrous, while others seem in need of a hug.

Much of Kapitany’s presentation will show trees in their habitat but will also cover their cultivation and show

pictures supporting their potential in landscape gardening and design.

The author’s program begins in the garden’s shop at 10am, followed by morning tea and a talk in the auditorium. His talk on succulents starts at 11am and boabs and bottle trees at 2pm.

The Royal Botanic Gardens, Cranbourne, 1000 Ballarto Rd, Cranbourne, open 9am-5pm daily. Call 5990 2200.

HUNDREDS of signatures are being added to a petition calling for an aquatic centre at Rosebud.

Pressure for a pool follows Mornington Peninsula Shire’s abandonment in 2014 of its long-held plans for an aquatic centre on the foreshore at Rosebud.

After commissioning architect drawings for the foreshore complex the shire spent $5.1 million buying shops and commercial land in Wannaeue Place as an alternative site. The commercial land is next to Rosebud library.

Councillors have been told this week that there are now 1736 signatures on a petition calling for an aquatic centre at Rosebud, 442 more than when it was first tabled on 26 April. The centre was also one of the major “topics” resulting from the shire Your Peninsula 2012 survey.

“The new council has indicated it will consider the options available for an aquatic centre in Rosebud and recently received a briefing on the work undertaken on this project previously,” facilities planning team leader Michael Scully reports on the shire’s Tuesday 23 May council meeting agenda.

“Following on-going consultation between officers and the council in the coming weeks, more details will be released to the community.”

Development of the pool may also be tied to plans for extending public health care on the southern peninsula.

A community meeting in March formed an action group and voted to bring the “need for an aquatic centre to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s attention”.

Organiser Betty Preston said she had been “sweating on a new council after the issue became toxic under the former council”.

“There was no point doing anything until the new council was elected.”

Ms Preston said the aquatic centre would be a community service “much needed by residents and tourists”.

Forums, surveys, site inspections and feasibility studies have been held to select a site for a southern peninsula aquatic centre since 1999.

“It would have to be a multi-faceted complex with a full size pool, toddlers’ pool, hydro pool as well as adequate parking, transport and lighting,” Ms Preston said.

“The site for the aquatic centre will always be controversial, but we don’t care where it goes – just that the council gets on with it.”

‘Who gives a crap’ about environment?

A YOUTH Environmental Forum at The Briars last week gave students from schools in the region the chance to learn more about human environmental impacts and solutions.

Arranged by Frankston Council, with help from the Frankston High School eco team, the day was about educating students to become better environmental leaders to educate their own school communities.

Students from Mount Erin, McClelland, Padua, Monterey and John Paul colleges and Frankston High School enjoyed the day funded by Frankston Council, ethical fashion brand Etiko and toilet tissue company Who Gives a Crap? that donates 50 per cent of its profits to building toilets in the developing world.

“It is hoped this might be the beginning of an interschool network in which students from neighbouring schools can share ideas, advice, projects -- the sky’s the limit,” Frankston High’s sustainability coordinator Brendan McKinnon said.

The Australian Youth Climate Coalition helped students form a plan of action to spread the word about how school students can look after the environment.

“We hope to reconvene as a group to find out how teams are progressing with their projects and to see that some new environmental initiatives in schools have been set in motion,” Mr McKinnon said.

Agent backs new quoting laws Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A BALNARRING real estate agent is happy about changes to the Underquoting Act which came into effect last week.

“We’ve been pushing for the changes since 2008,” Coast Real Estate agent David Wright said.

“We’ve been in direct communication with the Minister for Consumer Affairs about them.

“We think it’s about time those agents who are manipulating the price by using price plus, negotiable over, offers over, or buyers starting at, get hauled in.

“We’ve been using a trusted and compliant Price Ranger strategy since we started selling

around the Western Port area 10 years ago.”

The new laws apply to sales authorities signed on or after 1 May. Those signed before then do not require the agent to prepare a statement of information for the property, but any prices advertised on or after that date must adhere to the new advertising requirements.

The new rules stipulate that an estimated selling price must be reasonable, and take into account the sales of three comparable properties.

An agent’s estimated selling price must be included in the sales authority, and in the approved form. It may be a single price – for example, $500,000, or a range of up to 10 per cent – for example, $500,000 to $550,000.

If an estimated selling price changes because it ceases to be reasonable, the agent must inform

the seller in writing, update the sales authority, and update the advertising.

“The most important thing is transparency,” Mr Wright said.

“We deal with the largest purchase that most people will make and we need to disclose as much information as we can so that potential buyers can make an informed decision,” he said.

“Some agents might say, let’s blow them away [with a low-price estimate] but they might not realise that they may be putting their clients in a position where they can be fined up to $200,000 [for breaching the underquoting laws].”

A shortage of houses for sale now was exacerbating the problem because most properties would be selling at the top of their range,” Mr Wright said.

Foodie oasis A VACANT commercial site near the car yard area of Mornington is being developed as a restaurant, cafe, food market, function room, gardens and even a petting zoo.

Work will soon start on the 1.6 hectare Oasis Bakery site at 988 Nepean Highway.

Behind the development is the Makool family, who set up the Oasis Bakery in Murrumbeena in the late 1990s. Business boomed and expansion beckoned: “Mornington is the gateway to the peninsula and has a community that naturally loves good produce, wine, food and cheese. We think it will be the perfect location,” Emad and Marwa Makool say on the company website.

Architects Jackson Clements Burrows and Sydney based restaurant designers Luchetti Krelle will oversee the peninsula landmark which will take 18 months to complete.

A pop-up kitchen on the site for the past 11 months moved to 61 Bentons Rd on 9 May to make way for the new work.

Vendor Review - Recommended by Stacey 16th May, 2017 Andrew went above and beyond what an agent would do. I was hesitant to sell and have had bad experiences with agents. Andrew was recommended to me by a beautiful friend, he has also helped her with her property. Andrew is very courteous and polite, and was always smiling. My auction was a scary process for me, but he gave me the support I needed every step of the way. Always giving feedback after every open and answering every question I had. On auction day, Andrew achieved an outstanding price for my house. He has not only sold my property with amazing results but helped find my new home and within four days I had purchased a new property! Andrew is an OUTSTANDING agent and I would recommend him to anyone - I truly consider him a friend. Thank you!

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Lieutenant Pentland has his leg amputated after bullet wound Compiled by Cameron McCullough MR and Mrs W. C. Pentland have been advised by cable that their son, Lieutenant W. C. Pentland, of Port Melbourne, has had to have his left leg amputated below the knee as the result of a bullet wound.

Lieutenant Pentland saw service in the Boer War. *** THE Seaford Red Cross Society has increased the amount which was made for the British Red Cross on May 12th, to £10, which amount has been forwarded to the Fund. *** MR Rogers and party of eight leading artists will give a concert, on behalf of the “Wattle” Club, in the Mechanics’ Hall tonight (Saturday.)

An unusual treat is promised those who attend and it will be money well spent. *** THE Somerville Red Cross Society will entertain 150 returned sick and wounded soldiers at luncheon on Saturday next June 2nd at 2pm.

The Langwarrin band will be in attendance, and add to the success of the function. *** RATEPAYERS are reminded that it is necessary for all rates to be paid on or before 10th June next.

The secretary will be in attendance at the principal towns in the Shire on dates mentioned in advertisement in another column up to that date for the purpose of receiving moneys due. *** “AUSTRAL” in the “Referee” in speaking, under the heading of Lawn Tennis, of soldier players at Duntroon,

makes reference to Mr Frank Plowman as one of three players of exceptional ability.

His service was splendid and scarcely anything superior in Australia outside of Norman Brookes. *** REV. E. Tonkin will conduct both Services at the Frankston Methodist Church on Sunday next.

Being Empire Sunday the services will be of a special character.

Retiring offertories will be received throughout the circuit to assist the work of the Methodist Chaplains and other agents in the various Military Camps. *** THE second winter social in aid of Tyabb Red Cross Funds, was held on Saturday evening last.

A good programme of songs was gone through Mesdames Woodhouse and Strachen, Misses Young, Benton, Woodhouse, and Messrs Denham, Westwood, R. Denham and Gibson, helped to make the social a great success.

The proceeds of the evening were sufficient to purchase the material required for a large order for handkerchiefs just received from the Central Depot.

The competition was won by Miss Benton. Again everything was donated so expenses were nil. The proceeds of next social will be given to British Red Cross. *** THE comparative merits of men and women as teachers have not been determined by the Education department.

A member of a deputation from Tyabb to the Minister of Education last week had made up his mind on the mat-

ter, and he informed Mr Lawson and the education officials that there was no question about it.

The man teacher was the teacher needed for a country school. A man he said, had more control over the boys; and – presumably by more Spartan methods was far more successful in keeping order.

He pointed, in support of his contention, to the fact that his three sons were on active service and to train up such a stamp of lad he thought that the man teacher was needed.

The Minister, while promising consideration of the views of the deputation, which concerned the proper site for the Tyabb school, did not undertake to give a definite ruling on the question of the comparative merits of men and women as teachers. For, Mr Laswon and his officials admit, there are teachers and teachers. *** IMPORTANT to Soldiers. RATES OF PAY. To remove a misconception which has arisen in some quarters, special attention is directed to the fact that in the ‘Recruiting Ready Reconer” published by the authority of the State Recruiting Committee, the rates of pay and pension specified for married men in the A.I.F. include what the soldier himself draws as well as the amount paid to the family of the soldier.

It is also desired to point out that in addition to the amount drawn during the absence of a soldier from the Commonwealth, deferred pay of 1s per day, amounting to £18 5s per year, is payable to a soldier on his return to Australia. Any promotion from the rank of Private, means a corresponding increase all round.

*** Frankston Court of Petty Sessions.

Monday 21st May, 1917. (Before Mr Cohen, P.M., and Messrs Williams, Oaes, Grant and Crawford, JsP. UNLAWFUL ASSAULT. Mrs V. F Wells was charged with an unlawful assault on Miss Dora Keane, a State School teacher, on 3rd of May. Mr Utber appeared for the prosecution and Mr Cook for the defence.

The defendant pleaded guilty, under provocation.

Dora Keane deposed that she remembred the 2nd of May. Was on the Melbourne road on that day.

Saw the boy, Aleck Wells in the front garden at his father’s house.

When she was passing he coughed loudly and whistled, of which action she took no notice, but walked on.

Next morning at school Miss Keane called the boy out, and told him that he had been rude to her on the previous evening and remarked that she had often heard of gutter snipe children behaving rudely to a lady on the street, but she did not expect it in Frankston.

Miss Keane then informed the head teacher of the boy’s conduct and he repremanded the boy.

On the evening of the 3rd May, was proceeding home about 5 o’clock, and when near Beach St saw a woman walking slowly in front of her.

On getting close to her the woman turned round, and said, “You are the person who got my boy a thrashing” and then rushed at the complainant, and struck her a violent blow on the face, knocking parcels she was carrying on the road.

The accused struck her three times, and also said that she had called her

boy a gutter snipe.

One of the parcels was lost, and has not since been recovered. The complainant then reported the matter to Constable Ryan, who accompanied her to accused’s home.

On being questioned by the constable she admitted having assualted the complainant and said she would do it again, remarking that she might as well be killed for a sheep as a lamb.

To Mr Cook–When the elder boy brought a letter to the complainant, from his mother she asked what was in the letter, and he said his mother said she must not strike his younger brother, Reggie.

She told the boy to tear the letter up and throw it in the waste paper basket.

The coughing of the boy in the garden was not the result of a cold.

Const Ryan substantiated what the complainant had said with regard to the conversation that took place with Mrs Wells after the assault.

Alick Wells, a boy eleven years of age, on oath remembered Miss Keane passing the garden on the evening of the 2nd May, but denied coughing or jeering at her.

If he coughed at all it was the result of a cold.

The Bench said that such conduct could not be allowed. If Mrs Wells thought she had a greviance against a teacher, the proper course would be to complain to the head teacher, and then if not satisfied, to the Education Department.

A fine of 40s with 23s 6d costs was inflicted. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 26 May 1917

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Tales of the BHD (Big Hairy Dog)

By Stuart McCullough FOZZIE is big. She’s a Bernese Mountain Dog and I’ll be the first to admit that the name is apt. Once, I thought the term ‘Mountain Dog’ was a reference to where she came from. Now I know it’s a description of her size. She’s humungous. Every time I take her for a walk and I see other people’s dogs, I’m reminded as to how large our canine is. More than forty kilos of tail-wagging hairiness in total. It’s not exactly what I signed up for.

There were strict rules when we were growing up – no animals were allowed inside. My brothers and I were the only exception to this rule.

The occasional incursion by a dog that took its chance to bolt through an open door across the slate into the family room was treated with all the alarm of a full-scale invasion by an enemy state. My father would adopt his ‘serious voice’, which is a full half-octave lower than his speaking voice and terms such as ‘here’ and ‘get out’ were issued in short, staccato stabs that were intended to let the errant beast know that resistance was futile and that it should vacate the premises immediately. It never worked.

In Tyabb, dogs belonged outside.

Often, the family pet would take up residence on the mat immediately outside the door. That way, the creature would always know when people were coming or going. For years, we had a mongrel of uncertain origin named Monte who used to chase the car a few hundred metres along the

gravel drive until, eventually, his advancing age saw him settle for a wag of the tail and a few steps for old time’s sake. As beloved as Monte was, he was never permitted to set paw on slate inside the house. But beyond the front door, everything he could see was his. The yard and the paddocks were his kingdom. He was the lord of all he surveyed.

In truth, I’d made some assumptions. When talk turned to getting a dog, I naturally thought the dog would be living outside the house. Granted, there’d be those early weeks when, as a puppy, she’d be in the laundry and we’d tend to her every need. But, surely, within a relatively short period of time, she’d be outside, commanding the lawn and terrorizing the potted plants. Things have not quite turned

out that way.

Little did I know that by adding a third member to our household, I was altering the balance of power. I am now often out voted. Previously, stalemates were settled either with the toss of the coin or elegant surrender.

No more. The dog and my wife have formed a powerful voting-bloc that bands together on contentious issues ranging from what we’ll have for dinner through to how we should renovate the bathroom. In short, I now get rolled on a regular basis. There is no better example of this substantial shift in power than the fact that the dog lives indoors.

Let me be clear – by ‘live indoors’, I don’t mean sitting on a special mat.

Fozzie appears to have the run of the house. The dog is not allowed on the

couch. But it’s not uncommon to enter the room and find her spread out and watching ‘Pointless’ on channel 2 (honestly, I don’t know what she sees in that show). She also sleeps wherever she likes; and I often hear her enter the room in the middle of the night before a gentle ‘thud’, indicating that she’s decided to plonk herself down.

It would be completely charming were it not for the fact that she snores.

Loudly. At her worst, her nocturnal snorting can rattle the windows like a freight train would if it were passing through the front garden.

Our neighborhood has lots of dogs.

Problem is, they love nothing more than talking to each other. This usually involves Fozzie standing at the flywire screen and bellowing out to her pals. I blame myself. Had I

bought her the iPhone she wanted for Christmas, I suspect our house would be a lot quieter.

But for all my misgivings, I’ve learned a lot from my dog. She’s extremely loyal. When I get up early, so does Fozzie. We eat breakfast together and she returns to bed as I head off to work. And when I get home at night, she’s always waiting by the door to greet me. She’s also tremendous company when you’re home alone or out for a walk. Being as big as she is, she’s either a source of fascination or fear for strangers. Luckily, Fozzie is extremely friendly and greets strangers as though they were long-lost friends. The only exception to her gregarious nature comes when delivery people arrive on the doorstep. I fear that Fozzie’s baritone bark has left more than one pair of undergarments the worse for wear.

Since Fozzie arrived, I’ve spoken to more strangers than I had in the forty years previous. She’s stimulates a lot of conversation. There’s also something about her nature that makes that all a lot easier, somehow. I like walking with the BHD. I look forward to the moment when, each morning, she emerges into the kitchen and expects me to make her breakfast just as I’m making mine. Quickly and without expecting it to be the case, Fozzie is a now part of our household. Things just wouldn’t be the same without her. Frankly, she can sleep where she likes. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Sharks break hoodoo against YCW PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt BONBEACH snapped a long-time hoodoo on Saturday by knocking over the previously undefeated Frankston YCW. It seems the country championships bye gave the Sharks the time it needed to overcome its miserable loss to Seaford and bounce back against the league leaders, winning 12.17 (89) to 9.9 (63).

Frankston YCW hasn’t been setting the world on fire this season but has been winning games of footy.

On Saturday against the Sharks, the Stonecats were jumped in the opening quarter and smashed in the second half in what was Luke Damon’s final game after he announced his retirement after a brilliant career.

Bonbeach could have quite easily been a lot further in front at the first change but despite having six more scoring shots, only led by six points after kicking with the breeze.

Despite trailing by three points at halftime, Bonbeach had restricted the opposition against the breeze and set themselves up nicely for a big third term.

With Dylan Jones dominating in the middle and when he moved forward and Jackson Casey and Gary Carpenter setting things up across half-back, the Sharks were able to boot five unanswered goals in the third and go in at the change with a 35-point lead.

Trent Dennis-Lane (three goals) was causing some headaches in attack and Gavin Vassallo was also proving to be a handful for the opposition.

The Stonecats, as expected, hit back in the final term with three majors but Bonbeach was able to answer the chal-

lenge with a couple of their own.

The domination of the Sharks was highlighted by the fact it had 29 scoring shots to 18 – this rarely happens against the Stonecats.

Ryan Santon was one of YCW’s best with three goals while Luke Paynter and Kevin Lylak worked hard in defence.

Bonbeach coach Steve Hughes said on Sunday morning that “coffee always tastes better on a Sunday when you win”.

“It was a really good day for us, we played really well,” Hughes said.

“We probably got them at a good time with a few of their stars playing VFL but we did play very well.

“It’s not often that you walk out of Jubilee Park with the four points.

“We got our right whack against Seaford a couple of weeks ago. We were just going and they rightfully beat us comfortably.

“The week off was good and I was really happy with the maturity of the group. Everyone had an impact and whilst our good players continue to play well, we didn’t leave it all up to them to get the job done,” Hughes said.

Mt Eliza’s woes continued in more ways than one on Saturday, beaten by Edithvale-Aspendale after the game was called off early in the last quarter.

In shocking scenes at Wooralla Drive, talented youngster Brody Shaw suffered a compound fracture of his leg and laid motionless and in horrific pain on the ground while it took more than 30 minutes for an ambulance to arrive.

The game was called off with the scoreboard reading 8.17 (65) to 8.9 (57).

The Eagles led by two points at threequarter time and kicked the opening goal of the final quarter.

The Redlegs have now lost to Chelsea

and Edithvale in the past three weeks.

Coming off a grand final last season and after one full season under new coach Troy Shannon, it was expected that the Redlegs would be the main threat in 2017.

Whilst Saturday’s loss was unusual, it was still a loss. Truth be told, Mt Eliza doesn’t even look threatening right at the minute.

Aaron Edwards booted nine goals in Pines’ big 17.16 (118) to 9.9 (63) win against Karingal.

After carrying a niggling injury over the past month, Edwards looked at his best on Saturday and completely dominated. Lachy Marshall was again outstanding for the Pythons also.

Pines now sits on top of the Peninsula ladder.

Chelsea made it three wins on the trot on Saturday, smashing Langwarrin by almost six goals.

The Gulls had previously won 10 games in four seasons and celebrated hard on Saturday night after its third straight win. Todd Gardner dominated for the Gulls with a couple of goals and Jack Francis was on fire with four goals.

The hapless Kangaroos are at an alltime low with zero wins in six matches.

One really does wonder what has happened to this once powerful club. The envy of all clubs given its junior depth, the Langwarrin FC is nothing more right now than the butt of opposition jibes.

Seaford continued its domination, beating Mornington by 27 points.

The Tigers set-up the win with a blistering first term, booting seven goals to one.

Mornington rallied over the next three quarters but still went down 13.12 (90) to 18.9 (117).

Blues ‘are the team to beat’ after big win NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt HASTINGS proved it is still the side to beat in MPNFL Nepean Division after dishing out a convincing hiding to Red Hill on Saturday.

Clearly the match of the round, it seemed to be heading in that direction at half-time when the margin was three points.

However, the reigning premier turned up the heat in the second half and the home side couldn’t match it, losing 15.9 (99) to 8.13 (61). Hastings booted 11 goals to four after half-time.

The Hillmen’s sure ball handling and domination from half back and through the middle was non-existent, as Hastings stayed disciplined, structured and too powerful all over the ground.

Rarely are Red Hill’s young defensive guns in Michael Mock and Jonah Siverson beaten but Shaun Foster and Luke Hewitt had the better of the pair on Saturday.

The run from half back was there for the Hillmen but they continually turned the footy over and overused the handball to players under pressure.

The home side continually blazed away into their forward line, only to find the arms of Lance Brouwer, Paul Rogasch and Brendan Dunne, who set up brilliantly, while Jay Austerberry mopped up everything.

Aaron Vinson has grown into a good young defender and beat both Jayden Pain and Danny Allsop, while Jake Hewitt continues to impress. His re-

Blues prove a point: Hastings thumped Red Hill at the weekend and are on the rise.

bound off half back was first class yet again and he was awarded with the RPP best onfield award.

Through the middle, Josh Mulherron had the better of his younger opponent and his onball brigade delivered.

Luke Smith was outstanding all afternoon, but especially in the first quarter, while Mark Devereaux and Nathan Gray dominated.

The midfield depth of the Blues is impressive with David Hirst, Luke Clark and Ricky Ferraro also going through there.

Both Clark and Ferraro wore the dangerous Chris Irving like a glove and re-

stricted his brilliance around the footy.

Hirst was also very dangerous in attack.

A disappointed Red Hill coach Tony Blackford said after the match that the Blues were “just too good”.

“They are really strong all over the ground and they proved once again that we’re still just a bit off it,” Blackford said.

“We planned for their set-up and structures in defence but we just couldn’t execute.

“You can plan as much as you like but of the opposition make it hard and your players can’t hit the targets and execute, planning goes out the window.

“Hastings are a very disciplined side and they are much better positioned now than where they were this time last year.

They have to be the side to beat,” Blackford said.

Hastings coach Brendan Dunne said his side was “starting to play some good footy”.

“We were very good today and are playing some good footy,” Dunne said.

“We played very well against Dromana a few weeks ago and that has really set us up.

“There’s some good depth and everyone is playing the role that we want them to play,” Dunne said.

Dromana had 12 goal kickers in its 19.18 (132) to 15.11 (101) shootout against Pearcedale.

Zac Muschialli played his best game for the Tigers since crossing from Edithvale while Adam Hunter booted three majors.

Harry Prior was Pearcedale’s best while Matt Cottrell booted four majors.

Frankston Bombers had 42 scoring shots against Crib Point and eventually won by 72 points, 18.14 (132) to 9.6 (60).

The Magpies went toe to toe with the Bombers in the first half and trailed by just seven points at half-time.

Pines sack Rae, Strikers dump Parrella SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie FRANKSTON Pines sacked Billy Rae as head coach last week and appointed assistant Paul Williams in his place.

When Rae took over at the end of the 2015 season he worked hard to bring Williams and goalkeeping coach Lee Davies to the club as his support staff.

Rae and the club also agreed to a two-year succession plan which would see Williams take over at the end of the current season.

Rae mentored Williams giving him a more hands-on role than that usually given to assistants.

But with Pines lying second bottom in State 2 South-East the committee decided to fast-forward the succession plan by elevating Williams to the senior role with Davies as his assistant.

The club also axed reserves coaches Richard Permal and Jack Thompson and offered Rae the reserves role which he rejected.

Davies now also looks after the reserves.

Prior to last week’s upheaval, the club sounded out Mornington assistant Dale Lewis and Bentleigh Greens under-20s coach Patrick Thompson without success and had canvassed a select group of senior players about the coaching set-up.

The committee claimed that there was confusion among the playing group as to who was in charge, a claim Rae vigorously rebuked.

“It had been explained to the players all along that I was giving Paul leeway to do things and they all knew I was leaving at the end of the year so I told the committee that any idea that there was confusion among the players was bullshit,” said Rae. The Williams and Davies reign got off to a flyer with a 1-0 away win over Old Scotch on Saturday, a result which lifted Pines out of the relegation zone.

Sebastian Gueho’s flick on in the 24th minute sent Jack Wrobel through and he finished off the decisive move of the contest.

Pines have ended negotiations with Mauritian club AS Rivière du Rempart over the signing of international forward Christopher L’Enclume.

It is believed that the Mauritian club wants $6500 for L’Enclume but Pines were prepared to pay $2500.

L’Enclume has trained with Springvale White Eagles and Casey Comets but Comets coach Jamie Skelly confirmed on the weekend that his club would not be signing him.

Fellow South-East 2 outfits Peninsula Strikers and Seaford United both lost on Saturday, Strikers going down 1-0 away to Beaumaris while Seaford lost 3-2 at home to Eltham Redbacks.

A Grant Davies own goal as he was attempting a clearance separated the sides at Beaumaris Reserve but the big news from Centenary Park is that the club is negotiating with a player from Panama and has parted company with Italian import Leandro Parrella.

The Panamanian can play wide left or up front and Strikers contacted him through player agency Soccer Smart.

Parrella was one of three players imported for this season through Soccer Smart but his association with the club has ended on a sour note.

“As far as we’re concerned Leandro is trying to engineer a move to Werribee so he will never play for us again,” said Strikers gaffer Craig Lewis.

Harry McCartney reports that Eltham Redbacks opened the scoring in the 30th minute at North Seaford Reserve following a long ball downfield which prompted Seaford keeper Enes Umal to charge off his line only to lose a footrace with Matthew Filonzi who rounded the keeper and tapped the ball into the unguarded goal.

In the 58th minute, Eltham failed to deal with an Alex Roberts cross from the left and substitute Dylan Waugh got the final touch to make it 1-1.

Waugh’s attempted cross in the 85th minute took everyone by surprise as it made its way through a crowded

Sudoku and crossword solutions

penalty area into the bottom left-hand corner of the Eltham goal to make it 2-1.

Referee Yoav Fisher ruled that Eltham’s Dylan Colaci had got the final touch and he was credited with an own goal.

One minute into injury time referee Fisher pointed to the spot after the ball had struck a Seaford defender on the forearm and Gianni Falzon converted to make it 2-2.

But in the 93rd minute, Pierre Equipart broke the hearts of the home team’s fans with a superb strike that gave Umal no chance.

Langwarrin maintained its unbeaten record and still heads the State 1 South-East table after a 1-1 home draw with Manningham United on Saturday.

Langy’s gun striker Liam Baxter opened the scoring in the 31st minute but Franc Carafa levelled 11 minutes into the second stanza.

Langy defender John Guthrie was sent off after a second yellow card in the 65th minute and Carafa received a straight red in the 79th minute.

Manningham had the better of the second half and created enough opportunities late in the contest to have grabbed all three points.

Boris Ovcin (overseas) and Caleb Nicholes (interstate) are unavailable for Langwarrin’s derby showdown with Mornington next weekend.

Spectators at Dallas Brooks Park last Saturday are still trying to make sense of the final 11 madcap minutes of Mornington’s 3-3 draw with Caul-

field City.

Ryan Paczkowski had arrived back in Melbourne just a few hours before kick-off after attending his grandfather’s funeral in England but he made Caulfield’s defence look like it was suffering from jetlag.

With four minutes gone he went to ground with Marcus Slimane’s hands on his shoulders and referee Hary Milas pointed to the spot.

Paczkowski converted with ease and he put Mornington in cruise control in the 37th minute with a sublime curled strike with his cultured left foot that had Caulfield custodian Dennys Martin clutching at thin air.

Four minutes into the second half Wayne Gordon burst through but Martin was able to smother then gather and a great chance had gone begging.

In the 78th minute, Oscar Knight went close to opening Caulfield’s account but his strike from inside the area forced Mornington keeper Kris McEvoy into a full-length dive to gather.

Caulfield’s fightback started in the 83rd minute when Joe Summerbell’s deep cross from the left was headed down firmly and inside the far post by Caulfield striker Cort Kibler-Melby.

In the 87th minute, Mario Hofmann was tripped inside the area and Summerbell converted the resultant penalty on the rebound to make it 2-2.

Caulfield fans were still congratulating each other when Mornington went forward straight from the restart and substitute Simon Mur’s opportunistic strike from 10 metres made it 3-2.

But Caulfield continued to press and Kibler-Melby got free in the 94th minute of an enthralling contest to complete the unlikely scoreline.

Skye United’s undefeated run in State 3 South-East ended on Saturday after a lacklustre performance at home against Noble Park United.

Skye found the lead early after Lawrence Komba capitalised on a defensive error in the 24th minute however the sides went into the half-time interval locked together after a deadly free-kick from Sasa Vranesevic in the 42nd minute.

Early in the second half Vranesevic struck again after he tapped in the rebound from his initial shot.

When Zlatko Stokic made it 3-1 after a well worked corner routine the game looked dead and buried but Komba gave the hosts hope after he headed home a Jason Nowakowski cross in the 63rd minute.

But Noble Park’s Leigh Karavasil made it 4-2 in the 70th minute after

breaking through the Skye defence and slotting past Jonathon Crook.

Noble Park ended the game with nine men after Slavko Grujic was dismissed in the 78th minute and Dejan Karac received his marching orders two minutes later.

Rosebud Heart knocked Springvale City off the top of the State 4 South ladder with a stirring 4-3 home win on Saturday.

Dave Greening broke clear in the 25th minute and squared to Mikey Turner for the opener then Greening was put through after Daniel Hodge bravely won possession and Heart went in 2-0 up at the break.

Two minutes into the second half an Arnel Zahirovic volley following a corner made it 2-1 and a 57th-minute free kick by Damir Rizvic eluded Sean Skelly in the Heart goal for the leveller.

Heart then missed three one-onones before Turner raced clear and his parried shot was toe-poked home by Greening to restore Heart’s lead.

Springvale striker Graham Glynn made it 3-3 from the penalty spot but in the 89th minute Greening skipped clear of a defender and slotted home the winner.

It was his 100th goal for Heart in just 51 games.

Baxter beat Hampton Park United 3-2 at Baxter Park on Saturday with goals from Jake Kidder (25th minute), Heath Goss (40th) and Liam Kilner (47th).

Hampton Park’s scorers were Adrian Miranta (13th) and Daniel Milne (55th).

Miranta was sent off in the 77th minute for a second bookable offence while teammate Aziz Salim received a straight red in the 16th minute.

Somerville Eagles are anchored to the foot of the State 5 South ladder following Saturday’s 5-1 home loss to Bunyip Districts.

Stephan Mgoneh (2), Jody Cooper, Spencer Nebel and Fleming Isorua scored for Bunyip while Liam Morgan scored for Somerville.

Bombers make history with dominant debut

She-llacking: Frankston Bombers women’s side had a 169-point debut victory over Morwell East.

By Ben Triandafillou THE Frankston Bombers made history on Sunday 7 May, triumphing in all eight of their football and netball matches over the weekend, including the women’s football side’s dominant debut victory.

Joining the AFL South Eastern women’s development league, the Frankston Bombers 24.26 (170) recorded their first victory with a 169-point win over Morwell East 0.1 (1) at Morwell’s home ground.

“It was the women’s team’s first game, first win and first year playing

in the women’s league,” Frankston Bomber’s club secretary Cheryl Cameron said.

“Cassie Vandervalk kicked the first two goals which will go down in history.”

“Sarah Astone and Jasmine Hunt were also women who stood out but everyone really made an impact in the game.”

“It was a pretty good crowd and we also had Alex (Nation) from The Bachelor in the side.”

“She hadn’t played football before and was able to kick a goal.”

The women’s side was registered late last year and has grown to a full list with about 30 women.

“Half of our team hadn’t played before but some of them are actually some of our better players,” Cameron said.

The victory over Morwell East tipped off a perfect weekend for the Bombers with the seven football and netball sides picking up wins on Saturday 6 May at Rye. “We’ve had a total of seven teams win over a weekend but have never had eight, which is amazing,” Cameron said.

Mordialloc midfielders join Southern netballers

By Ben Triandafillou MORDIALLOC netballers, Lucy McKeown and Alana Harris, joined the Southern netball inter-league side for a testing match against Central Highlands last Saturday 13 May. The Mordialloc midfielders played their first match for the inter-league side with McKeown also getting the opportunity to co-captain the side with St Kilda City goal attack, Jessica Jones.

The debutants combined with familiar faces from the Southern netball league to face the determined Highlands side at Marriott Waters Reserve, Lyndhurst.

Southern came out firing in the first quarter scoring the first two goals until the Highlands side kicked into gear to lead 17-9 at quarter time.

Southern kept coming out strong in each quarter but it seemed to only fuel the Highlands as they fought back to lead 32-20 at half-time.

It was a tight third-quarter with both teams returning serve but the Highlands put together a late string of goals to end the third term 47-29.

It went downhill for Southern after three-quarter time as the Highlands quickly pulled away, putting another four consecutive goals on the board at the start of the final quarter.

To make matters worse, McKeown

was forced to come off after a solid performance at wing defense due to a calf-injury.

“She’ll be out for several weeks which isn’t good - her team will miss her,” Southern netball coach Melanie Starr said.

Highlands finished the match out strongly defeating a gallant Southern side 71-39.

“Both (Harris and McKeown) played brilliantly,” Starr said.

“The team played really well, I couldn’t fault them as they tried hard all game.”

“We were just beaten by a stronger team on the day.”

Who is Tom?

HASTINGS Football Club historian, Vic Jeremiah, is hoping to identify a Hastings local by the name of “Tom” about a recent post in the Herald Sun’s 50/50 column.

The post on 12 May was about legendary footballer, John Coleman, who the Coleman Medal is now named after and who also started out playing in Hastings.

Tom wrote about the ‘spectacular’ mark which is now a statue on High

St, Hastings and Coleman’s impressive debut in the VFL kicking 12 goals, setting the ‘standard for a mighty career’.

With little information to go on, Jeremiah would be grateful to hear from anyone who can help identify ‘Tom’.

Contact Vic Jeremiah on 59 792720 if you have any information that could help identify this mysterious man.
