IN just six days Mildura will be one of the only Victorian cities without full access to the widely advertised One HD sports channel, despite being selected as the first city in Australia to go digital-only next year.

Macquarie Southern Cross Media, which provides the Southern Cross 10 (SC10) channel to most of regional Victoria will begin airing the full 24-hour One HD service from 7pm next Thursday. But it appears Sunraysia

residents, who receive their Channel 10 (and limited One HD) service through Mildura Digital Television, will be forced to battle on with the limited service, as there’s still no indication from WIN Television, which is reportedly in

wo little kids are in a hospital, lying on stretchers next to each other outside the operating room. The first kid leans over and asks: “What are you in here for?” The second kid says, “I’m in here to get my tonsils out and I’m a little nervous..” The first kid says, “You’ve got nothing to worry about... I had that done when I was four.” “They put you to sleep, and when you wake up they give you lots of Jello and ice cream. It’s a breeze.” The second kid then asks, “What are you here for?” The first kid says, “A circumcision.” “Whoa!” the second kid replies. “Good luck buddy. I had that done when I was born. Couldn’t walk for a year!”

handful of 7-year-old children were asked what they thought of beer. Some interesting responses, but the last one is especially good... • “I think beer must be good. My dad says the more beer he drinks the prettier my mom gets.” – Tim. • “Beer makes my dad sleepy and we get to watch what we want on television when he is asleep, so beer is nice.” – Mellanie. • “My Mom and Dad both like beer. My Mom gets funny when she drinks it and takes her top off at parties, but Dad doesn’t think this is very funny.” – Grady. • ‘’My Mom and Dad talk funny when they drink beer and the more they drink the more they give kisses to each other, which is a good thing.’ – Toby.

the apron was used for carrying eggs, fussy chicks, and sometimes half-hatched eggs to be finished in the warming oven. When company came, those aprons were ideal hiding places for shy kids. And when the weather

was cold, grandma wrapped it around her arms. Those big old aprons wiped many a perspiring brow, bent over the hot wood stove. Chips and kindling wood were brought into the kitchen in that apron. From the garden, it carried all sorts of vegetables. After the peas had been shelled, it carried out the hulls. In the fall, the apron was used to bring in apples that had fallen from the trees. When unexpected company drove up the road, it was surprising how much furniture that old apron could dust in a matter of seconds. When dinner was ready, Grandma walked out onto the porch, waved

her apron, and the men knew it was time to come in from the fields to dinner. It will be a long time before someone invents something that will replace that ‘old-time apron’ that served so many purposes. Send this to those who would know (and love) the story about Grandma’s aprons. REMEMBER: Grandma used to set her hot baked apple pies on the window sill to cool. Her granddaughters set theirs on the window sill to thaw. They would go crazy now trying to figure out how many germs was on that apron. We don’t think anyone ever caught anything from an apron!

EMEMBER making an apron in Home Economics? Then read on... We don’t think our kids know what an apron is. The principal use of Grandma’s apron was to protect the dress underneath, because she only had a few. It was easier to wash aprons than dresses and they used less material, but along with that, it served as a potholder for removing hot pans from the oven. It was wonderful for drying children’s tears, and on occasion was even used for cleaning out dirty ears. From the chicken coop,

Our students used to visit their school canteen to indulge in a tasty meat pie and sauce…or, in the case of Mildura Senior College, a bag of hot chips with gravy. How things have changed, as the Mildura Weekly’s VINNIE RODI reports…

Healthy school could eat its way to $1m THE days of pies and pasties, hot chips, sauce and gravy no longer exist for today’s students, who now head to their school canteen to indulge in ‘a healthier alternative’. But this new health ‘kick’ might have other than lifestyle advantages, with one local school set to benefit from taking healthy living to a new level. In Nangiloc, just 40 kilometres from the heart of Mildura, the Nangiloc and Colignan Primary School has established a unique way to educate their students about healthy eating. And it could net them $1million as part of the National Australia Bank Schools First initiative. Schools First is a national awards program designed to encourage schools to build partnerships between local businesses, or strengthen already existing relationships. Prior to the initiative’s launch, the primary school had been steadily building connections within their local community, as part of their ‘enterprise learning’ project. The idea was for students to gain a better understanding of how local industries affect the town’s economic and financial well-being, utilising a healthy eating option, citrus, as an example. Principal Eric Wright said the aim was for students to firstly understand the ins and outs of running and maintaining a business, and then gain a better understanding of how

ADFA set to unveil new-look structure By BEN PISCIONERI THE Australian Dried Fruits Association (ADFA) will hold its all-new annual conference next week, representing a significant shift from previous years after changes to the organisation’s constitution. The annual conference will be held on Tuesday at the Edge Hotel and be split into two parts - the annual general meeting and a grower’s forum. The annual general meeting will get underway from 10am and is only open to financial members. It will be followed by the growers forum at 1.30pm, which is open to all levy payers and industry stakeholders. ADFA general manager Phil Chidgzey, (PICTURED), said the new annual general meeting replaced the former delegate-based federal council meeting. Mr Chidgzey said the new annual general meeting would allow all financial ADFA members, including prune and dried tree fruit industry members, opportunities to question the organisation’s board of management. The growers forum meanwhile will follow a similar format to

previous years, providing a range of information sessions including

presentations by ADFA chairman Peter Jones, Horticulture Austra-

lia’s Tony Martin and the CSIRO’s Peter Clingeleffer. There will also be a market snapshot and industry outlook for dried fruit by Sunbeam Foods’ Andrew Mitchell, while the Murray Darling Basin Authority’s Lynda Pollock will provide the forum’s keynote address: Developing a Basin Plan Engaging Our Stakeholders. Next week’s conference follows other pivotal changes to the ADFA’s internal structure, the most recent of which was the recognition of branch forums in the organisation’s constitution. Mr Chidgzey said branch forums have been around for some time, but are now formally recognised. He said they are for growers only and provide a chance for growers to have formal input into the future direction of their industry without influence from processors and marketers. “The board of management recognises that growers need a forum to discuss some issues without the influence of processor/marketers,” Mr Chidgzey said. “Branch producer members, large producer members and producer board of management members are eligible to participate at each forum and can refer motions or issues to the board of management or annual general meeting.” Branch Forums are held at least twice a year. The most recent was on June 2.

Speaking of success MERBEIN’S Jayden Milner said his experience competing in the semi-finals of the Victorian Plain English Speaking Awards in Melbourne on Wednesday has inspired him to continue his public speaking activities. The 15-year-old, who took out the regional final to earn a place in the State semi-finals, said while he didn’t win this week’s event, the experience gained was just as valuable. “I got a lot of great feedback from all three adjudicators,” Jayden said. “They told me exactly what to improve and it has really inspired me.” Jayden competed against 29 students from around Victoria at Melbourne’s Treasury Place, speaking on his chosen topic bottled and natural water and their effects on the community. (See Page 13 today). Looking to the future, the 15-year-old plans to spend more time with the Debaters Association of Victoria Development Squad after being invited to join the squad recently. He’s one of only 16 students across Victoria to be part of the squad, and the youngest. In terms of future career plans, Jayden said he would like to either join the defence force or possibly undertake a law degree once he completes his secondary schooling.

They look like the ‘Real McCoy,’ letters, emails or text messages purporting to be from legitimate people or companies, and usually advising that you have suddenly come into money, or have a bank account problem. In reality it’s a story of‌

The scum, and their scams‌ By ALAN ERSKINE IT came as part of the usual dayto-day private email receivals‌ purporting to be from a Commonwealth Bank security advisor. It even had the bank’s logo. ‘Dear Commonwealth Bank of Australia customer,’ it read, ‘we recently reviewed your account, and we are suspecting that your NetBank account may have been accessed from an unauthorised computer.’ That set the alarm bells ringing. I’ve never used the NetBank system. A Commonwealth Bank spokesperson in Mildura said the attempted rort is not uncommon, not just locally but all over the country. The bank has a special email ‘hoax line’ to give advice to customers. It’s main advice is ‘never‌ ever‌ ever respond to an email asking for your personal banking details‌ banks don’t do business this way – the only response should be to forward the email to hoax@cba.com.au and then ‘wipe’ the email. The attempted bank scam follows on from other hoaxes, notably the Nigerian letters, the Spanish ‘lottery’ and email employment scams.

The attempted bank hoax trick is known as ‘phishing.’ These are emails used by fraudsters to trick people into revealing personal information such as details of bank accounts. Believe it or not, a lot of people are sucked in. The fraudsters then use the information received for illegal purposes, such as sucking funds from the account, or using it to buy goods. The emails contain the usual waffle, eg‌ ‘protecting the security of your account and the bank’s

banks have in place. The Commonwealth Bank says it never sends emails asking customers to confirm, update or disclose confidential banking information. It is one of many organizations that supports the Australasian Consumer Fraud Task Force in the promotion of ScamWatch, a website dedicated to the prevention of scams. People who suspect they have been scammed

They give a web address, and ask you to log in ‘as soon as possible,’ supposedly ‘to maintain the integrity of the banking system. network is our primary concern.’ And‌ ‘we need you to immediately log in and report any unauthorised withdrawals.’ It even ‘advises’ you never to share your password with others, and to log off after using your on-line account.’ They give a web address, and ask you to log in ‘as soon as possible,’ supposedly ‘to maintain the integrity of the banking system.’ The reality is that there’s nothing wrong with the system that

should ring 132 221, or visit their bank branch. Other useful checklists are at ProtectYourFinancialId and StaySmartOnline. The main advice given to people, regardless of whether they are contacted by phone, letter, email or text message is‌ if the offer sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The Nigerian scam is a perfect example. The fraudsters send out letters and emails inviting people to get involved in a money-making

scheme that is non-existent. Usually the letters purport to be from a Government representative who needs help in getting millions of dollars out of the country. There are cases where people have been sucked in, revealing details of their bank accounts, or forwarding tens of thousands of dollars as ‘advance fees’ so they can claim the non-existent cash. In the Spanish ‘lottery’ scam, victims are advised that they have won a large prize, but in order to collect it, they must send money before a certain date to a bank account in Spain to cover the cost of bank fees, transfers, delivery and insurance etc. Some people actually fall for this ploy. Victims of the email employment scam are asked to provide their bank account details to prospective employers for the purpose of transferring funds to overseas groups. They are told they will

be compensated with large commission payments for the use of their account. Again, banks warn customers to never ever release personal account information to anyone. The general public is also warned on a regular basis to be aware of other scams, such as spam emails, chain letters or people purporting to be representatives of government departments, financial institutions or other businesses. Again, never divulge your name, bank account details, copies of your passport, birth certificate, driver’s licence or any other personal details. Authorities say that because many of the scams originate from overseas, and usually operate for short periods at a time, the people responsible are hard to trace. The most important advice – again. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Healthy school could eat its way to $1m • From Page 3 In partnership with the Murray Valley Citrus Board and local grower Frank Sos, the kids were able to form their own company called ‘Fundzinc’, purchasing locally grown oranges to create a healthy alternative to Icy Poles, ‘Slurpeeez’. Students (or to be accurate Fundzinc directors) were responsible for naming the company and product, promoting Slurpeeez and ensuring supply met demand. All of the school’s grade four to six students get involved (the school’s total population is 70 students, with approximately 25 enrolled in grades four to six), all taking on positions within the company. Slurpeeez are sold in the school canteen, with all profits going toward improving the thriving business. In fact Fundzinc has grown so large, the school had to install a commercial kitchen to cater for the increased demand. It comes fully stocked with a slicer, juicer and the all important ‘Slurpeeez machine’, enabling students to mass produce their product. “The students are responsible for the operation of Fundzinc,” Mr Wright said. “As teachers we offer guidance when they need it, but they’re mostly left to

• FIFI’S VISIT: Channel 7’s Sunrise weather girl Fifi Box (LEFT) will venture to the Nangiloc/Colignan School next Wednesday, performing live crosses to help promote the school’s growing community partnerships. It’s been an education for the students, who as part of their enterprise learning project, have followed the journey of an orange from tree branch (BELOW), to the packing shed (BOTTOM) to the supermarket shelf.

their own devices. “The grade six students hold meetings to discuss the company’s ‘direction’ and assign duties to the other ‘employees’. “When we first started, every Friday afternoon was dedicated to Fundzinc, now

we need the entire day to get through everything.” It’s a partnership that caught the eye of Schools First organisers, who are using the Nangiloc/citrus partnership as a model for the entire initiative.

“When I heard about Schools First I immediately knew we ticked all the boxes,” Mr Wright said. “I attended a workshop in Mildura, and they (organisers) seemed very excited when

I told them about our partnerships.” The school recently received a phone call from Schools First, asking if they would be interested in Channel 7’s ‘Sunrise’ program sending weather presenter and radio personality Fifi Box to the school next Wednesday, July 1. Fifi will be conducting a number of live crosses from 6am to 8.30am at Frank Sos’ packing shed, with students, teachers and community members invited to attend. Schools First will use the Nangiloc/citrus partnership to help promote the initiative nationwide, with entries officially open on Wednesday. “The kids are very excited about Sunrise’s visit,” Mr Wright said. “It’s going to be fantastic to have Fifi come and discuss our project in front of a national audience.” Schools First publicity officer Brooke Tully said the Nangiloc/citrus partnership was a great example of how schools can interact with their communities. “It’s a great example of how kids can get involved, and is certainly one way of getting a message like healthy living across,” she said. “In this example students seem to be learning a great deal, which is what the initiative is all about.

“It captures student imagination, and is a shining example of how young kids can be given an idea, and then take that idea to another level. “Hopefully once Sunrise showcase Nangiloc’s ideas it will inspire others to get involved.” Schools First will offer a number of prizes in recognition of exceptional partnerships. Sixty local awards valued at $50,000 each will be allocated to those who meet a set criteria, with eight state or territory schools to receive prizes worth $100,000 each. And while these prizes are substantial, the Nangiloc and Colignan Primary School will be hoping to secure the major prize of $1million. This award will go to the school that demonstrates an exceptional partnership and a compelling strategy for using allocated funds, with winners to be announced in November. “To win $50,000 would make a big difference to our school,” Mr Wright said. “If we were lucky enough to win the $1million prize the celebrations would be unbelievable. “Obviously we’re looking to continue our partnership, and continue to build on what has already proved a worthwhile project for out students.”

Orange adventure for school’s ‘health kids’ PUPILS from Nangiloc and Colignan Primary School have taken the idea of healthy living back to its origins by following the journey of the humble orange, from the fruit tree to the supermarket shelf. In their case it was quite an adventure, starting with picking a bin of the fruit on a local property, and then a trip to Melbourne to follow the processing stage. The questions of who, what, why, when, where and how arose during the school’s enterprise learning program, where students were asked to form their own company, Fundzinc, and create a healthy alternative to the Icy Pole, what they labelled the orange flavoured ‘Slurpeeez’. Local businesses were

Students were instructed by Mr Sos on the correct way to pick an orange, ensuring stems and leaves were removed. “They all took their work very seriously,” Principal Eric Wright said. “Not one of those oranges wouldn’t have passed a proper inspection.” From the field they followed the bin to the packing shed, where they watched oranges divided by size and quality, packed into boxes and loaded onto a freight truck and delivered to the Mildura Fruit Company. • Continued Page 20

For sale, a slice

IT is a place of tranquil beauty, rich in history, in a river and billabong setting that has attracted visitors from all parts of Australia, and the world. The property itself is as diverse as it is unique – a paradise embracing almost 11,000 acres on the Victorian side of the Murray River less than half-an-hour’s drive from Mildura. Cowra Station has been home to the Pippin family for the past 37 years, and now it’s on the market, and attracting interest from across Australia. As it should. As successful as Cowra has been in the past and the present, with a background in sheep and cattle breeding, grazing, cropping, irrigation, fish farming and tourism, it is the future potential that is the selling point. Cowra Station goes way back to the droving days of the Overlanders, the people who helped open up this part of Australia’s vast interior. It was originally an ‘outstation’ of Kulnine station, just downriver, with the original lease first taken up by John Hawdon Junior, with the area known as Hawdon’s Upper and Lower runs. Hawdon, who lived in Melbourne, was killed while visiting the property in 1849, and it was taken over by the equally wellknown John Crozier and his partner George Rutherford, who had previously been squatting on the Edwards River. They re-named their new runs Kulnine and Cowra. When Rutherford left the property to live in New Zealand, Crozier’s brothers Elliot and Thomas came out from Scotland to join him. Their runs continued to expand during the 1850’s, at one stage extending more than 100 kilometres to the south, well into the Sunset Country, and to the north, taking over Bunnerungie and Moorna Stations. While Thomas went to Bunnerungie, Elliot went first to Moorna, and then to the present site of Cowra. At this stage the total leases were more than 1.2 million acres, running 180,000 head of stock. Elliot built a log cabin near the present homestead, on the bank of the Murray River, and he and his

wife raised 14 children there. Elizabeth Crozier died following childbirth in 1894, and after a short time, Elliot moved closer to the Mildura settlement, passing away in 1912. His second youngest son Roy Crozier was eventually to take over Cowra, remaining there until the 1960’s. The Pippin family involvement came in 1972 when Jim’s parents Hughy and Joan brought him and brother John there to live after selling up The Cliffs grazing property near Darnick in NSW.

• THE MAN FROM MURRAY RIVER: Jim Pippin tells how he and brother John and a host of other locals enjoyed their parts as ‘extras’ in a scene from ‘The Man from Snowy River Two’ that was filmed on Cowra Station. While Hughy has since passed away, and John and his family have re-settled near Coffs Harbour in NSW, Jim and his wife Merianne are helped by Jim’s mum Joan in looking after Cowra, particularly with the upkeep of the homestead and its beautiful surrounds, and greeting the many visitors who find their way to this part of the world. Jim loves this country, has a thousand stories to tell after almost four decades there, but is looking forward to selling up and retiring, catching up with friends, doing

a bit of travelling, and getting reaquainted with the golf course and other pursuits while he’s still fit enough.

He admits the Pippin family have answered plenty of challenges over the years, diversifying to meet changing times, and putting up

with Government bureaucrats to the point of frustration and anger. The family branched into aquaculture about 1996, setting up a

• HOW’S THE SERENITY? The billabong (left) used by national and international skiers on Cowra. TOP – the main station homestead and ABOVE – the shearing shed. Cowra was visited by a film crew from Crawford Productions in 1986 for the telemovie ‘A Place to Call Home.’ The crew had planned to stay three days – they stayed two weeks! They even sacked their horse wrangler, using Jim and John Pippin, and other locals, along with the station’s horses, dogs and sheep. Hector Crawford later sent the Pippins a huge basket of flowers in appreciation.

Mildura’s Gateway Tavern, with inquiries from other Mildura restaurants, and venues in other parts of Victoria, SA and NSW. Then the

Government watchdog Primesafe got involved, introducing so many new regulations, audits and huge fee increases that Jim and the fam-

ily decided to give the game away. Jim isn’t bitter. He just moved on, and says life at Cowra for him, Merianne and their two girls has been one big adventure after another. Jim reminded me of the big story I did many years ago on old Possum – David James Jones – an ex-shearer who became a bush re-

cluse for 54 years until his death on Ned’s Corner Station. Old Possum was a regular ‘visitor’ to Cowra, doing odd jobs such as pulling out noxious weeds, fencing and cutting wood whenever he was passing through. His story is told at the Possum statue in Fotherby Park, Wentworth. • Continued Page 10

For sale, a slice of God’s Country • From Page 9

Jim and Merianne recalled the time when a glider pilot had to make an emergency landing in one of Cowra’s paddocks… and the day a light plane passed low overhead, half a lignum bush hanging from a wheel strut. The pilot calmly landed on a bush track, hopped out to clear the lignum, and flew off into the sunset. For a long while the property was used as part of a testing ‘track’ by the huge Toyota company… they even got Jim to ‘construct’ a corrugated track so they could test the suspension of the new Lexus that was about to be launched. “I went a bit overboard,” Jim admits. “It was a bit rough for them… I had to modify the road a bit to suit.” Jim has helped locate missing people, saved a few people who were on suicide missions, transported to hospital a shooter who had accidently blown his boot – and part of his foot – off with a shotgun as he climbed through a fence, and he was amused at the antics of the well-known religious newspaper correspondent (and rabbit-trapper) known to all as ‘Texas Says.’ One day Jim came across the religious zealot in the middle of a clay pan. He was spread-eagled out on the ground, naked except for a pair of gloves. “G’day Tex,’ Jim said, “watcha doin?” Old Texas didn’t bat an eyelid, or show any signs of embarrassment; “G’day Jim, I’m just getting some power from God,” was the reply. And then there was old ‘Hodgy,’ the ex-shearer who lived on the property. Loved a drink, old Hodgy, so much so that it eventually cost him his driving licence through the courts, and he had to go into town by horse and cart. It was a weekly ritual. He always got into town okay, but after a night at the pub was incapable of finding his way home. Lucky for him the horse always remembered… and the Pippins could hear it galloping past at full pace in the dead of night. Many was the time Jim or John had to put old Hodgy to bed, store the slab of beer in the fridge, and the horse in the stables. When the authorities finally stopped Hodgy from taking the horse and buggy, he simply got a taxi…which

Jim didn’t mind, because then it was the taxi driver who had to carry the old bloke in and put him to bed. Jim has seen plenty of unusual sights along the station’s six kilometres of Murray River boundary as well… from amphibious vehicles to whole flotillas of vessels, ranging from small punts to massive paddleboats…plus the odd raft or two. In more recent times, the station has been opened up to tourism, an area that is gradually growing, but which

• HOME SWEET HOME: TOP – Jim and Merianne Pippin reflect on their 37 years of Cowra Station life. INSET – walking the picturescue lawns with selling agent Michael Fernandez of Landmark. ABOVE – the billabong, complete with wharf, jetty and ski jump and RIGHT – a reminder of days gone by, with the homestead’s huge water tower and majestic gums as a backdrop. Jim admits now needs to be taken to the next level. The Pippin family has spent a lot of time, money and effort in bringing the accommodation, kitchen, showers and toilets up to a more-than-acceptable ‘bush’ standard, and have hosted visitors from all over Australia, and overseas.

One family has been visiting every Easter for more than 30 years. There were just four of them at first, but since then, the Pippins have welcomed their children, and now grandchildren, and admit that once they are off the station it will be one of the things they will miss. “They are like family

now,” Merianne says. “I look forward to making them welcome every year, and I always cry when it’s time to say goodbye.” The sale of historic Cowra Station is in the hands of Michael Fernandez from Landmark Mildura, with expressions of interest being taken up to next Friday.

What happened to Watson?

By GRANT MAYNARD THAT was the question we posed a fortnight ago in our story about Watson, the sheep mustering emu. The news is not good. It is quite probable that he met the same tragic end as his brother, Holmes – shot dead by trigger-happy hunters. Holmes was shot when going down to the Murray River to drink on Tammit Station, near Euston, by someone who told the owners he did it because: “I had never shot an emu before.” And it could well be that Watson too, was shot by passing hunters, but this time near the Hattah store and some years later. ‘Watson’ the emu was raised by Tammit Stations’, Helen Grayson, after being found abandoned in the bush. He was one of two emu chicks given to Helen in the late 1950s. “We didn’t train Watson to herd sheep,” her husband, Oswald Grayson, recalled. “He just watched the dogs, and then every time they went out he went too. He can’t herd the sheep on his own, but he will work all day when he has the dogs

• A tear sheet of our story from a fortnight ago, LEFT, and ABOVE, the emu Bob Lampard believes is ‘Watson’ photographed near the Hattah Store in the 1960s.

with him.” Watson, and the other chick, Holmes, were named after the famous detective pairing.

“We called them that because they were so inquisitive,” Mr Grayson said. The story now has a sequel. Former Hattah store

proprietor Bob Lampard told the ‘Weekly that he is almost positive it was Watson who came to live with him, and his family at the store in the mid to late-1960s. He said noted naturalist and author Ben Eggleton “was sure it was Watson”. “Ben told me Watson had crossed the Murray River near where Chalka Creek runs into the Hattah Lakes

system and lived for a while with Bob Messenger, a professional fisherman in the area,” Bob said. “He then apparently moved on to stay with Ben when he was living on the Hattah Lakes. “He then moved on again and ended up with us at the store.” The family had established the store in the mid-

1950s and “always had a emu or two and a ‘roo or two about the place”, many of them orphans and taken into the Lampard home after their mothers were killed, as often as not in road accidents. If, indeed, the emu that wandered into the Hattah store in the 1960s was Watson he soon settled in, Bob recalls. He would hang around and scrounge a feed from the many motorists who would stop at the store for fuel, food, water – or all three. He was shot by a hunter, or hunters, who had called in for fuel, Bob recalls. “He was wandering around in the bush not that far from the store and they shot him!” By a strange coincidence, Bob recalls Red Cliffs policeman, Bert Thomas, who was relieving at Ouyen at the time, was at the store fuelling up. “He chased the hunters’ car, but couldn’t catch them,” Bob said. So our dream of Watson retiring gracefully after a lifetime of mustering has been dashed, but he was still one of the best sheep chasers around and as Bob put it: “A real character.” “We tied a red streamer around his neck one day and he tore up and down, the colourful paper streaming out behind him, but he wasn’t happy about it... he sulked for a couple of days.”

150th birthday celebrations. It turned out to be a “very good idea” according to the organisers, the members of Wentworth Arts, who said visitor numbers to this year’s exhibition were a record high. “Because the 150th celebrations attracted quite a few people from outside the district, a lot more people from a much wider area are now aware of our unique arts exhibition,” Wentworth Arts’ Cynthia Keenan said. “And quite a few people signed up for more information... some even keen to make and exhibit something next year.”

When it comes to public speaking, young Merbein student Jayden Milner usually presents a water-tight argument. That was certainly the case with his ‘entry’ into a State public speaking final, and it’s worth recording. Jayden asks the question…

Bottled water… a luxury, or necessity?

By JAYDEN MILNER, Year 10 Merbein Secondary College WHEN I read that Australians guzzle up to half a billion dollars a year of bottled water, I was dumbfounded. That’s approximately six hundred million litres of bottled water a year… enough to fill a staggering 240 Olympic-size swimming pools. You’re all probably saying’ ‘that can’t be right, I don’t even drink bottled water.’ But according to Jon Dee, an environment expert, that’s exactly the case. We are drinking bottled water… and a lot of it. Jon believes we are being conned by the bottled water industry, which is laughing all the way to the bank. Although apart from the massive profits these big bottle water companies make, the fact is that Australian are drinking more water. Last year, bottled water consumption grew by 20 percent, compared to a measly five percent growth in fizzy drink varieties. And we aren’t about to stop there. Bottled water may seem cheap and convenient, but some might describe it as a massive rip off. For one tonne, or one thousand litres of plain tap water, we would pay around $10. For the same amount of bottled water, we could pay up to $3000. At one cent a litre, who wouldn’t drink tap water? What do you think bottled water is made from? Not sure? Well, for a mere one litre of bottled water, 200 millilitres of oil is used. That equates to six hundred thousand tonnes of greenhouse gases a year. To put that in perspective, bottled water produces 600 times more CO2 than one litre of plain old tap water.

By next year we should be expecting to pay extra for power and water due to the carbon emissions trading scheme. If we didn’t buy bottled water, we would save that six hundred thousand tonnes of green house gases from destroying our atmosphere. I’m sure that might put some doubt in your mind about bottled water.

We all think we know where tap water comes from, starting with the filtration process. By the time it leaves the ‘cleaning’ plant, the only two substances found in most Australian tap water are flu-

oride and diluted chlorine. Fluoride helps keep our teeth and gums healthy, whereas chlorine keeps the water clean and safe until it reaches our homes. Both are perfectly safe, but did you know that some bottled water is just filtered tap water. Yep, plain old tap water. And others also have been found to contain dangerous levels of Aluminum. Small amounts of Aluminum found in the body can cause symptoms seen in osteoporosis and even Alzheimer’s disease. Scary stuff when you know you’re paying a small fortune to drink ‘safe’ water. So having heard that, would you turn your back on tap water now? Actually, Australian tap water is filtrated way beyond the global standard. So are we simply indulging ourselves in a completely unnecessary luxury? Now if you want quality assurance that the bottle water you are drinking doesn’t produce as much green house gas as some other varieties and be sure it’s

TAFE students now have an art wall SUNRAYSIA Institute of TAFE now has a Student Art Wall. Students use the wall to create layered, continually shifting content. Teachers say it is an ongoing ‘work in progress,’ never a finished product. Students are instructed in their classes in the portrayal of street art and in techniques for rendering images. Themes and ideas are generated by their teachers and others are encouraged to make suggestions. Teachers hope the wall will encourage students to be sensitive to, and care for, the work of others. Students are required

to document their contributions on the wall in their folios and journals, ensuring they take ownership of what they do. “The Institute is pleased to provide this form of expression to its arts students,” Director of Education, Tracey Forbes said. “We expect the wall will help foster responsibility on their part. If any students do inadvertently step over the mark, we take immediate steps to have the students erase or modify their work.” The arts students love their new art space, and the wall is proving a talking point around SuniTAFE.

not just filtered tap water, expect to pay up to $22 dollars a litre. King Island for example, such a beautiful place in the middle of Bass Strait, produces bottled water. They are being dubbed ‘the rain makers.’ They produce clean, ‘green’ safe bottled water, harvested from the rain. The stuff sells over seas for $24 dollars a litre. During the current financial crisis, I’m sure you won’t go out and pay that much for a bottle of water. Bottled water comes in many different varieties. There are varieties claiming to help with your health, others that are purely for either gender, and there is even a variety for your dog! One company boasts a flavoured water that is diluted cordial that you can buy off the supermarket shelf. There is a brand called EVIAN, which when spelled backwards is actually ‘naïve’. And I thought I was crazy. We complain about surging fuel prices, but in comparison to bottled water, petrol is cheap. A litre of fuel is around $1.20… for the same amount of bottled water you pay up to $4. I was devastated to read that 75 percent of all bottled water containers ends up in land fill, or as rubbish in our streets. This is funny, because if I were to consume a glass of tap water, there is no rubbish at all. A regular sight today is people trying to clean up Australia, and we hear constant messages to recycle, but the harsh reality is that we are harming the environment by not recycling used bottles. I can see only one solution. Manly in Sydney’s north is already doing it. Bring back tap water. Manly has conveniently placed drinking stations at several locations where people can get a cool, refreshing drink of water… for free. It’s a clean, ‘green’ initiative that according to many bottled water fanatics, is satisfying to the taste buds. But if you believe that tap water is not clean or safe to drink, buy a filtration device to install at your home to filter the water before you drink it. Just imagine the money you would save, and with the extra half a billion dollars in our pockets we could provide clean and safe tap water to towns with no running water, and which have no option but to drink rain water or buy bottled water brands. And if you’re among those many thousands of bottle water enthusiasts, maybe next time you want to think about the alternative, tap water… it might just save you more dollars than you think.

As we at the Mildura Weekly are finding out time and again, there’s more than meets the eye to a lot of the district’s prominent businessmen and academics. In the case of La Trobe University’s executive director Kent Farrell, it has been a case of…

From camouflage, to cop, to campus LA Trobe University Mildura’s Campus Executive Director Kent Farrell started his working career wearing camouflage as an army apprentice. And while his progression from the military to life as an academic and campus director might be slightly unconventional, it is a testament to what can be achieved through self belief, motivation and hard work. Kent was born in Brisbane and educated at Marist Brothers College, Ashgrove. After finishing school in 1969, he headed straight into the Army, where he served at The Army Apprentice School in Balcombe, Victoria. He graduated in 1973 as an Army vehicle mechanic, but soon afterwards took a post for several years at the 2nd Military Police Company in Sydney as a military policeman, and was later appointed to the Officer Cadet School – Portsea. Leaving the military in 1977, Kent joined the New South Wales Police Department, and worked in metropolitan and regional NSW locations in both uniformed and plain clothes duties. In 1981, Kent married his partner Wendy, and in 1984 left the Police force and moved back to Queensland, where they settled on a small property near the popular tourist destination of Noosa.

Embarking on a new direction, Kent took up a position at a national media company, and was quickly promoted through the ranks to sales and marketing manager. Eager to further develop his

skills in this new field, he worked after hours to complete a degree in Journalism and Public Relations. Interestingly, while presenting a guest lecture on media analysis at the Central Queensland University,

Kent was approached to join that university as both a student, and lecturer. He completed his first class honours degree in Yield Management Implementation, began teaching in marketing and economics, and is recognised for being instrumental in the development of an innovative high school-to-university transition program at the university –The Tertiary Awareness Programme - in conjunction with Education Queensland. Following this success, he was appointed as a lecturer in marketing at Monash University, where he quickly established himself, and was promoted to deputy head of the Faculty of Business and Economics at the Gippsland Campus. There, he was not only responsible for domestic operations, but also the challenging role of faculty business in several overseas campuses, including Hong Kong, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. It was following the presentation of a paper on transition from high school to university that Kent and Wendy were both recruited to the United Arab Emirates in 2001, where they began working with the Higher Colleges of Technology. While overseas, Kent was awarded a Masters Degree in Education (Leadership and Management) and he continued to teach undergraduate and postgraduate studies in Oman,

The United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom, primarily in the areas of marketing, economics and human resource management. After his Middle East experience, Kent was recruited to the prestigious University of Southampton, and during his time in the United Kingdom was a Director with the Institute of Entrepreneurship, where he was responsible for professional and short course development and delivery across four UK universities, the universities of Bath, Bristol, Southampton and Surrey. Returning to Dubai, Kent was appointed as the Deputy Director and Head of Academic Programmes to the United Kingdom’s International University, Middlesex University - Dubai in 2006. By this stage, with three children back in Australia, three grandchildren and an ailing mother, Kent decided it was time to return to Australia, and in 2007 took the post of Executive Director of the Mildura campus of La Trobe University, where he is currently undertaking doctoral studies into transition to university. He describes himself as “actionoriented and outcome-focused,” and is enthusiastic about providing high-quality educational opportunities for all Australians. In whatever spare time he has, he enjoys reading, movies, computing, cycling and snow skiing.

A library filled with fun IT was a case of kids doing what they do best at the Mildura Toy Library this week, with a group of excited youngsters on hand to try out the library’s latest additions. There was Zac Hand, 5, who was busy playing with the Fun Barrel, and brother Mitch Hand, 3, who was visibly excited to be motoring around in the Swing Cart. And while both boys were focused on having a good time, parents and library volunteers were watching on, noting how the children interacted with the libraries newest acquisitions. Each toy has been picked in consultation with local early childhood professionals, and are designed to help kids with special needs develop motor-skills, coordination, sensory and visual perception and language skills. The specialised toys will join a host of play-time equipment currently on offer, with Toy Library President Miriam Doyle saying the idea to include the toys had been based on community need. “Children learn through play,” she said. “They develop physically and mentally by playing with puzzles

ance to develop those skills, which is where these toys will become extremely useful.” The group received $3000 worth of funding from charity group Comic Relief, and a further $2000 from the Coomealla Memorial Sporting Club to help purchase the toys. “The generosity of these organisations has allowed us to introduce these additions to our collection, and cater for special needs kids in our community,” Mrs Doyle said. The Mildura Toy Library is a nonprofit organisation that offers a range of quality toys, games, puzzles, musical instruments and outdoor equipment for babies up to children aged eight. The organisation is run by volunteers, and is open every Saturday from 9.30am to 11.30am. “We’re very excited to be able to offer these toys to the community,” Mrs Doyle said. “We mainly want people to know that the toys are here for those who need them.” More information about the Library’s new range of specialised toys is available by contacting Miriam Doyle on 5021 0551, or by visiting www.milduratoylibrary.com.au.

She might have been unable to attend her pharmacy course graduation ceremony because her boss wouldn’t give her the time off, but Ruth Flanagan was to become a woman ahead of her time, and a figure of note in her field. Now she’s...

100 years young, and going strong RUTH Mary Batchelor was born at Kew on June 20, 1909 – the first child of Christopher and Lucy Batchelor. The family lived at Taggerty House, Taggerty, with her paternal grandparents who were the first settlers in the area which includes the townships of Narbethong, Buxton and Marysville. Despite the recent Black Saturday bushfires, the house still stands at Taggerty, although the family has long since moved to a more modern home on another part of the original property near Cathedral Mountain. Ruth attended primary school at Buxton and enjoyed riding her beloved pony to school with her younger brother, Ronald, on behind. She vividly recalls her mother, who came from the Riverina and was a keen gardener, planting a Murray Pine in the family’s front yard, igniting Ruth’s life-long love of gardening and in particular wild flowers.

Rare find And she remembers well an incident when she had found a rare fringed lily, took it to school and was mortified that the teacher, who had no idea of the importance of the find, was indifferent to what she thought was a treasure. Ruth attended Tintern Church of England Girl’s School in Hawthorn as a boarder and began a pharmacy course when she left school. In those days the pharmacy course was an apprenticeship, work combined with education. She attended classes at the pharmacy college on the corner of Melbourne’s Swanston and Franklin Street, now part of RMIT. She completed her work requirements with Henry Francis Chemists and continued to work there after graduation in the early 1930s, mainly in the pharmacy at Myer.

with Sue Ruth remembers well that she was unable to attend her graduation ceremony because her boss, Henry Francis, wouldn’t give her the time off work – after all she was only a woman! But it was only a hiccup, and she was formally registered as a pharmacist in July 1932. Later in the 1930s, her uncle helped her to buy a small pharmacy at Urana. Here she met and married Raymond (Kelly) Flanagan in 1938. They began married life on a farm at Jerilderie where they had four children – Gail, 1939, Kerry, 1943, Bronwyn, 1945, and Frances (Jackie) 1949. In 1955 the family moved to a farm near Deniliquin, and being closer to town Ruth was able to return to pharmacy work part-time in a relieving capacity. In 1957 Ruth moved the family to The Rock where she was offered the management of a friend’s pharmacy and then, in 1959, bought a modest pharmacy in Deakin Avenue, Mildura from local chemist Victor Israel. Ruth worked hard to improve the business and eventually bought the premises herself, later buying Jacquie Frank’s greengrocers next door so she could expand her business. In the 1970s Ruth employed young pharmacist Len Poole. Within a couple of

Poole

years Ruth invited Len to become a partner, and together they purchased a pharmacy in Red Cliffs. It was a successful partnership that was to last more than three decades. Len described Ruth as “a great mentor”, and “a woman ahead of her time”.

Supporter of causes Ruth was a member of the Anglican Church and a counsellor for Birthright for many years. She was a founding and long-standing member of the Business and Professional Women’s Association and supported many other causes and groups throughout her life. At a time when a woman travelling alone was not common, Ruth ventured all over

the globe, mostly unaccompanied, and returned with many wonderful stories of her escapades. Travelling gave Ruth a great insight into the problems faced by Third World countries and for many years she was a dedicated supported of Community Aid Abroad and often sold artefacts to benefit these countries in her pharmacies. Later in life bowls became a passion, and she thoroughly enjoyed the social side of the club. When she wasn’t at the pharmacy she could usually be found on the bowling green, playing well into her late 80s. A wonderful, and sometimes acerbic wit, as well as a great love of family and friends meant that Ruth enjoyed a busy social life. Despite her advancing years, Ruth has retained her sense of humour and it remains very evident to this day. Ruth began to retire when she was in her 70s. She enjoyed the weather at Sawtell, near Coff’s Harbour, and began talking longer and longer breaks there. Her brother Ronald had lived there for many years and she finally moved there permanently in 1984. After moving to Coffs

Harbour, Ruth took up painting and applied herself to the task with all her usual zeal and intensity and was instrumental in the building of the Sawtell Arts Group facility – a building that allowed artists to work in comfort.

Busy in life Her busy life has continued unabated, with bowls, painting, gardening, travel and the beach filling her days. Ruth celebrated her 100th birthday with many members of her family and friends last week, and while she may have slowed down a little, still lives a very full and rewarding life while recalling her days in Sunraysia with much fondness.

• LIFE AND TIMES: Ruth, TOP, as a 26-year-old in 1935, ABOVE, opening an art exhibition in Sawtell, and BELOW, in 1992, at a Flanagan & Poole reunion with ‘her girls’ – all former employees.

Orange adventure for ‘health kids’ •  From Page 7 “The kids were gob smacked when they walked into the MFC,” Mr Wright said. “The sheer volume of fruit that passes through that place is quite impressive.” From Mildura, the kid’s oranges were loaded onto another truck, before heading to the Fitzroy Market in Melbourne. Once again students were able to track down their hand-picked fruit, following it to the Coles Supermarket distribution centre in the heart of the city. Similar to the MFC, students were once again amazed by the sheer volume of fruit stored within the distribution centre. Their oranges were then taken to a Coles outlet in Fountain Gate, where they were made ready for purchase. Students were able to see their hard work on display, and even told some of the many shoppers about their adventures. With the mysteries of the domestic market revealed, students were keen to learn more about exporting oranges overseas. They once again followed their oranges to the Port of Melbourne, where they witnessed transport ships being loaded with containers full of fruit from all around Australia. “We were very lucky to be offered a guided tour of the port,” Mr Wright said. “Because of the connections we had made with the Murray Valley Citrus Board (one of Fundzinc’s main partners in the project), the guys at the port were more than happy to bend the rules.” Students boarded a boat of their own, watching the giant transport ship leave Australian waters from the best view possible. “It was a great trip for the

kids, and allowed them to gain a great insight into one of our region’s main industries,” Mr Wright said. “They were able to take everything they’d learned through the program and put it into a perspective not many students get to experience. “This project will be an ongoing one at our school, and we plan to make similar trips like this every couple of years so students can gain a firm grasp of how important industries like citrus are to our region.” The trip has also inspired students to take Fundzinc in a new direction, with the company set to launch several ‘Orange Drives’ from July through to October. The ‘Orange Drives’ will act as a healthy alternative to the school’s traditional lolly/chocolate drives, with businesses and community members able to order a 3kg bag of oranges for $5. The school will keep $1 from each sale, with the remaining $4 to be used to pay the picking, packing, transport and advertising costs of making the bag available to the public. The project will also have a direct impact on the local economy, with the fruit, processing, packing and transport to be sourced locally. “We’re also hoping other schools can get on board, and share in the promotion of healthy living,” Mr Wright said. “Frank Sos, Visy Board, Pickering Transport and the Murray Valley Citrus Board are on board, and hopefully with their help, and support from the community, we can help promote a healthier alternative.” More information on the upcoming Orange Drive is available by contacting Eric Wright on 5029 1483.

M O VE ! ! E H T N AL S O N roccisano property group O I S S E F O PR With the market starting to strengthen, Professionals Managing Director, Tony Roccisano, announces the expansion of their Sales Team, with the appointment of a new Sales Consultants, David Martin.

David Martin- Property Consultant

Fabulous West Side Unit

Professional Managing Director, Tony Roccisano is very excited to have secured the services of David Martin. David has worked in the media industry for the past 14 years. He worked at the local television station every night after school before taking a full time position once he had completed his VCE. David worked at the local station for 18 months before moving to Melbourne where he worked for Channel 10 and Channel 7 for the next six years in both news and current affairs. However David and his wife decided that Sunraysia was where they wanted to live so they moved back to the district five years ago, and can’t believe they stayed in Melbourne as long as they did because they think Sunraysia is the greatest place in the world to live. David has worked in the media industry since his return but has always had a real passion for property so he decided to change his career to Real Estate. Being a born and bred local, David believes as an agent, he can provide Sunraysia residents with a high level of service that they should expect and deserve from their agent. David’s history in the media will be a great advantage when it comes to the presentation and marketing of your property. As the internet becomes a major part of the marketing of a property, photos are extremely important and David’s experience will be invaluable when it comes time to capture your property through pictures. David believes the most important qualities in an agent are that they are honest, trustworthy and committed. He ticks the boxes in all of these departments. David is also very down to earth, approachable, respectful and hard working. He will leave no stone un-turned to achieve a positive outcome for both vendors and buyers. David is excited to be starting a new career and is looking forward to the opportunity to help the people of Sunraysia when they decide to sell or buy property. David Martin M 0417 007 556

Mike Chaplin clocks up 25 years service at Collie & Tierney

In the service hungry industy of Real Estate, many people come and go, and it takes a special type of person to suceed and stand the test of time. This week well known local real estate agent Mike Chaplin celebrated 25 years of service to Collie and Tierney. Born and raised in the Mallee farming district, Mike left school to take up farming and sheep shearing. He then moved to Mildura where he worked as a truck driver and a builders labourer. In 1972 Mike joined the Maples group department stores where he rose to the position of Manager for North West Victoria. During that time Mike met George Collie Jnr, helping him furnish new homes, one of the biggest projects at that time was the Kalimna Village complex. George liked what he saw in Mike and in 1984 offered him a sales position at Collie & Tierney and the rest as they say is history. Mike says he has seen many changes in his 25 years in the Real Estate industry, the introduction of mobile phones, email and the internet now means that we can provide more information faster and further afield than ever before, but nothing beats good old fashioned service, trust and relationship building with your clients. Having survived many ups and a few downs, Mike wishes to thank his family, friends, work colleagues and a long list of loyal clients that have made the past 25 years a very enjoyable part of his life. Mike says the current team at Collie & Tierny is one of the best he has ever worked with and has a great mix of experience and youthful enthusiasm, he still enjoys going to work every day and helping people make their Real Estate dreams come true. The Directors and Staff at Collie & Tierney wish to congratulate Mike on his outstanding achievement and wish him all the best for many years to come.

Gladys Hengsen is the matriarch of a family of five generations of women who all call Mildura home. It’s clearly a case of...

Girl power ! THIS story starts nearly 85 years ago at Rainbow with the birth of Gladys Joan Sampson, daughter to Lucy and George. She was born on September 17, 1924 and was six months old when the family moved to Werrimull where she spent her formative years while her parents grew vegetables. Gladys was schooled at Lake Cullulleraine, completing her learning at age 14, before moving to Sunraysia with her family who continued to grow vegetables while she worked at Shillidays. She met, and then in 1942 married, Robert Stanley Hengsen. The couple settled on a 28acre dried fruits property on the corner of 5th Street and Irymple Avenue, Nichols Point, where they worked the land growing sultanas and raised six children. Robert died in 1970, and Gladys, by that time a grandmother, moved to Mildura, to watch her family grow. It was in 1982, with her mother, Lucy, still alive and well that she became a great grandmother and the member of a five-generation family. There was her mum, Lucy, herself, daughter Marlene (Hanson) grand daughter Melinda (Edwards) and great grand daughter Nicole, rounding out the five generations. • Continued Page 24

Wentworth’s 150th party

• PARTY TIME: Wentworth celebrated its 150th in style last weekend. The herd of sheep coming over the Darling River Bridge, ABOVE LEFT, and running through the main street, LEFT, were a big hit, as was the Wentworth Public School’s Chinese dragon, TOP. Wentworth pioneer riverboat captain and businessman, John Egge, was there, ABOVE, with Adelle Stewart, 4, Brandon Stewart, 7, and Jake Stewart, 11, of Nichols Point, and the iconic Paddle Steamer Ruby makes her stately way past other riverboats in town for the weekend, BELOW. Photographs: JOE PASQUALE and DIANNA STEWART, Wentworth.

Family girl power! • From Page 21 Tragically, Nicole died when quite young but she was to have a sister, Jessica who ensured the family of women remained five generations strong. But age catches up with all of us and with the passing of Lucy, at age 90, this family of women was reduced to four generations.

That was until about eight months ago when Jessica, now 22, gave birth to her daughter Liliarna. “We are now five generations again,” Jessica says proudly. It is now great great grandmother Gladys, as her mother did before her, who presides over the family that can once again boast five generations of women...

the family obviously has a knack for producing girls to carry on the Sampson/ Hengsen lineage. In all, matriarch Gladys has six children, 16 grandchildren, 28 great grandchildren and two great grandchildren, the second being a boy, but in this family it is the women who command the spotlight. – GRANT MAYNARD

‘Cappy’ set for last curtain call MILDURA sporting and musical theatre identity Robert Capp believes there is a firm future in the local pizza industry. And despite the dominance of the big players in the fast food field, he says that the ‘small players’ still have a part to play. After 12 years as the Mildura Pizza Haven franchisee (now known as Bobby’s Pizza Heaven), ‘Cappy’ is set to walk away – choosing his health over business survival after a five-way heart by-pass, and a radiation program for prostate cancer. “It’s been on the market for about two years,” ‘Cappy’ said yesterday. “Obviously I am hoping someone will come in and take over, but if not, I’ll just have to shut the doors and walk away.” Up to the time of his heart attack, on July 8, 2007, the business was doing about $5000 a week. ‘Cappy’ went back to work after his by-passes, but exactly 12 months later, July 8, 2008, got the bad news from a prostate biopsy report. So the affable bloke who has starred in countless Mildura theatre musicals, officiated as central or boundary umpire at almost 500 local football games, and who has coached local boundary umps for more than 20 years, is calling it a day. ‘Cappy’ admits the business owes a little bit of money here and there around the town, and he is trying hard to clear all debts before he calls it quits. “That’s why I am hoping there is a genuine buyer who can get the business cheaply, and run it as a profitable concern,” he said. Bobby took over the fledgling 9th Street business after retiring from Telstra 12 years ago, in partnership with a son, Leighton. Since his son followed other employment opportunities two years ago, ‘Cappy’ continued the business despite his serious health scares. “I have always taken pride in the pizzas we’ve produced,” he says, “with all doughs made daily on the premises, and fresh ingredients such as tomatoes, onions, capsicums and mushrooms sourced locally. ‘Cappy’ said that ideally, he would like to see the business stay

• IF THE CAPP FITS: One ‘out of the box’ is Bobby Capp, who has decided to give the pizza game away through ill health.

in the hands of someone local, someone with passion and vision, and he wanted to pass on his thanks to family, friends and customers who had supported him through

the years, especially when he was receiving treatment in Melbourne. Well-wishers, customers or potential buyers can contact ‘Cappy’ on 5023 8283 or 0419 236 447.

Historic find leads to chasing faces A PIECE of history recently turned up at the Mildura Weekly – a photograph taken in 1947 and brought into us by one of our readers. The picture features founding members of St Andrew’s Tennis Club, celebrating the completion of their new courts. It was taken at the St Andrew’s Church on

Eleventh Street, where the club resided until moving to the Aero Ovals in the 1990s. Long-time resident and St Andrew’s Tennis Club member, Tony Robbins, had a simple request for our readers; “can you help put names to faces?” “It’s a little piece of history the club would like to display at our club-

rooms,” he said. “The fact that founding members of the club are featured makes it a vital part of our history. “We’d love to be able to showcase the photo to all of our current and future members, and have so far managed to name the majority of those in the photo. “There are still a few

people who we haven’t been able to identify and we’re asking anyone who may recognise a face to get in contact with the club, and help us complete the list of names.” If any of our readers recognise those featured, contact Tony Robbins on 5022 1273 or 0427 281 273, or Robin Heberte on 5025 7318.

Standing by the groom were best man Adrian Pickles, and groomsman Robert Jackman, both good friends of Pat’s from Adelaide. Campbell Smith was the page boy and Kayla Pickles the flower girl. The wedding and reception were attended by 130 guests and the radiant couple honeymooned for six weeks in the United States of America.

‘Captain experience’ By VINNIE RODI

IN a team brimming with youth, experienced ‘veterans’ like South Mildura Football Netball Club captain Matthew Hamdorf are valued commodities. Matthew, 30, offers a wealth of knowledge and guidance to his young charges, who currently sit seventh on the Sunraysia Football Netball League ladder. It’s his second year as leader of the club, after five years playing an influential role in the midfield and across the half-back line. “I think one of the reasons I was named captain is because I’m one of the older guys in the team,” Matthew said. “It’s a role I’ve tried to use to help the younger players out, offering guidance and advice where I can. “I have a great group around me at the moment, and I think it’s a very exciting time for our club. “We’re young, eager and really keen to play footy. As a side we’ve had our ups and downs, but I also believe we have a lot of promise.” One of those “downs” came last weekend when the Dogs came agonisingly close to upsetting third placed Robinvale. The win was there for the taking in the final term, with South’s Zane Taylor slotting an unbelievable goal from the boundary line to put his side within a kick of the lead. However the fairytale finish wasn’t to be, with Robinvale holding on for a two goal win in a hard fought and highly contested game.

The move proved the right choice for the on-baller, winning two flags with the Magpies in 2002 and 2003. “Premierships are why we play football,” he said. “Knowing you’ve just become part of a premiership team is a great feeling. “It’s an experience I sometimes use to rev the boys up, reminding them that the opportunity to win a flag is always there if they want it.” While both premierships are held in high regard, Matthew’s favourite came in 2002, with a controversial incident allowing Merbein to clinch the flag. The 2002 SFNL Grand Final almost turned into a fiasco after players were convinced the final siren had sounded, with minutes still remaining in the game. A spectator had blown a horn, unintentionally fooling most of the crowd and players that the game had finished. Premature Wentworth celebrations erupted with the ‘Roos believing they had won, before players were told the game was still in progress. The confusion was all Merbein needed to “steal a premiership.” “It was a very weird ending to a fantastic game,” Matthew said. “I’m just glad we were on the winning end.” Shortly after the 2003 Grand Final Matthew made the decision to head to the Balranald Football Club in the Murray Central Football League, a move that lasted two seasons. When he returned it was to South Mildura, where he has helped devel-

• YOUNG BLOOD: Craig Stone is just one of many youngsters under the watchful eye of captain Matthew Hamdorf (RIGHT), who believes his young side could be premiership contenders within a few years. And although disappointing for his team, it’s all a learning experience according to the captain, who believes the Dogs are starting to find their feet in the competition. “Players like Leyland Brougham, Shaun Johns and Craig Stone are gaining more experience each week, and are setting themselves up to be leaders at the club,” he said.

“We’ve shown glimpses this year, but we’re still a developing side.” It’s been a colourful career for Matthew, who during his time has lined up with four different clubs across two leagues. He started with Imperials, playing all of his junior footy in the green and white, before moving out to Merbein shortly after making his senior debut.

op a young and promising list. With half the season remaining the Dogs are mathematically still in the finals hunt, sitting only two games outside the top four. And while many have written them off, their captain believes anything is possible. “Playing finals is still a goal for

this year,” Matthew said. “We’ll be trying hard to make the top four, and go as far as we can in 2009. “It would be a great learning curve for the boys, and I think they could get a lot out of the experience. “At the same time we’re still learning, and if it doesn’t happen this year I’m confident it will happen in 2010. “I see a lot of success for the South Mildura Football Club in the future, and I believe we have the right group to be a force in the competition in the coming years.”

Future netball star is a quick learner that runs in the family, with Claire’s mum Jo O’Connor a former three-time best and fairest winner with the Hawks. “Netball was never something I pushed Claire to get involved with,” she said. “She basically fell into it on her own. “Claire had started playing with a couple of friends from school, who also play with the Hawks, and decided she wanted to start playing netball with them.” Claire’s playing prowess has also extended to her school team, earning selection in the New South Wales School’s Barrier squad. She will travel to Sydney next month for a train-

ing camp, where if selected will compete against the best young netballers in rural Australia. “I’m very excited about going to Sydney,” Claire said. “I’ll be trying very hard to make the team, and if I don’t make it this year I’ll just have to try harder next year.” Melisa said the next step for the young netballer would be a stint in the Sunraysia Football Netball League, with the competition played at a slightly higher skill level across the border. “Claire could learn a lot by playing in the Sunraysia competition,” she said. “And getting the opportunity to represent Sunraysia would be a great ex-

perience for her as well. “We’ll keep working with Claire to continue developing her skills, but I think eventually she’ll have to make the move to the SFNL if she wants to progress further in the sport.” Melisa said Claire would slowly become a feature of the Hawk’s B-Grade line-up, and that with more exposure to senior netball could find herself selected in the A-Grade team. “With her style of play and aggressive nature in attack I don’t think it will take long for Claire to cement a permanent spot in the B-Grade side,” she said. “She’s a very talented youngster, who has a lot of potential and a very bright future in front of her.”

• RISING STAR: Claire O’Connor shows off some of the playing prowess that earned her a spot in the Gol Gol Hawks B-Grade side.

Coach Melisa Hederics said the youngster had all the makings of a future star. “Considering two years ago we had to show Claire where she was allowed to go on the court it’s truly unbelievable how far she’s come, and at such a young age,” she said. “She was easily in the top three players on the weekend, and once she’d picked up the speed and tempo of senior netball she proved quite dangerous in attack. “Obviously she’s very young, and has time to develop and improve, but I’m confident she could go a long way in the sport if she wanted to.” Netball is something

CLAIRE O’Connor, 10, has only been playing netball with the Gol Gol Hawks for two years, progressing rapidly in a short period. She said it had taken time to adjust to the rigours of senior netball, especially playing against women more than double her age. “It was a little tricky at first,” she said. “It was harder and faster than what I’m used to, and most of the players were bigger and stronger than me. “But it was a lot of fun and something I want to do more of.” Claire had to work hard for her selection, putting in extra hours at training with her junior team mates and training alongside the seniors.

the years, including former Australian motocross number four Warren Smart and one of the latest exports from the club, Ryan Grayling. Grayling is in the midst of his second full Australian Motocross Nationals campaign, racing the Lites division. Despite an injuryplagued beginning to the season, Grayling now has the bit firmly between his

teeth and, after recovering from a badly broken collarbone, recently contested the fifth and sixth rounds of the championship, in Murray Bridge and Perth respectively. He showed promising form in Western Australia, at one point running in eighth position in one of the motos before crashing. Sign-on this weekend is from 7.30am to 8.30am. Practice starts at 9am.

Kelly brothers in search of podium finish SUNRAYSIA V8 Supercar drivers Todd and Rick Kelly finished in the top five in at least one of the two races at last weekend’s Hidden Valley round in Darwin. Todd took a strong fifth position in the opening race of the weekend, while younger brother Rick rounded out the weekend with a fourth in the second race, but says a podium position was in sight if not for the safety car. Rick told BigPond Sport the safety car cost him two positions, losing ground to Alex Davison and Craig Lowndes on the restart. “The safety car, in a lot of peoples’ minds, was probably questionable and it took a second place off us at the end of the day which was extremely disappointing,” Rick said. The Sunraysia driver said while he was happy with the overall result for the team, he was disappointed with what could have been. “So that’s a fantastic result for the team but it’s also the most frustrating result of the year because second was well and truly in our sights,” Rick said. It was a much improved result for the younger Kelly driver, following a 15th in the opening race of the weekend. Todd had a similar weekend of ups and downs. After finishing an impressive fifth in the first race, he finished the final race 28th. Meanwhile, as the sport moves to Townsville for the next race of the series on the weekend of July 10 - 12, V8 Supercar supremo Tony Cochrane is predicting another major growth spurt for the sport. Cochrane is predicting V8 Supercars will overtake rugby league in television ratings as the sport prepares to undergo pivotal changes to its sporting, manage-

ment and calendar structure. V8 Supercars has already overtaken ruby union in television ratings. Some of the proposed changes include splitting next year’s season into two halves, with a mid-year break from late July to mid-September. The changes come as the sport reaches the mid-way point of its six-year contract with Channel 7, who was successful taking the sport from rival Network Ten.

‘Super Hoops’ to feature United States sensations SUNRAYSIA basketballers will have the opportunity to meet two stars of the country Victoria Basketball League during the school holidays, with players Fernandez Lockett and former Mildura Maverick’s import Jerome Williams to host the ‘Super Hoop’ basketball clinic. The clinic will run for three days from Monday,

July 6 through to Wednesday, July 8 at the WHK hothouse, with the American playing sensations to act as coaches throughout the three days. Albury Bandits coach James Madigan will also make the trip, with the trio to be joined by local junior Heat development coach Alan Morris. Williams was a star for

American import, has been producing big numbers in his first season with the Bandits, and will provide a keen insight into the game. Madigan is also a Mav’s

alumni, and was a successful coach of the Mavs before being recruited by the Bandits. Sessions will run from 9am to 3pm, at a cost of $80 per person. Players will also receive a basketball and Tshirt. Discounts are available for groups consisting of more than one direct family member, with the clinic designed

for boys and girls playing in the Under 12 through to Under 18 competition. Limited spots are available, with interested participates encouraged to register as soon as possible. Entry forms can be picked up from the Mildura Basketball Office located at the Eighth Street Stadium. Entries close on June 30.

Winter swimming competition creating waves THE 25 metre indoor pool at the Mildura Waves complex will play host to the Sunraysia Swimming Inc. short-course winter event, due to be held on Saturday, July 11. Organisers are expecting a large number of high class swimmers to take part, with the field to be made up of competitors from Broken Hill, Swan Hill, the South-

ern Mallee region, Riverland and Adelaide. Traditionally swimming season doesn’t kick-off until November, however increased participation numbers at local events, and even greater numbers competing outside of the district, has led to the SSI shortening their off-season and launching the winter meet.

Forty events will be on show, with freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly and the individual medley to be split between an under 11s right up to an open age section. Times achieved will be recognised by Swimming Victoria, meaning a number of competitors could qualify for the Victorian Country

and State short course championships based on their results. The competition will also provide a fantastic warm-up for those who have been preparing for the Dustbuster and State short course events to be held in August and September. Entrants can warm-up from 8.30am on race day, with events

starting from 9.30am, and a $500 cash prize also sure to boost competitive spirits. Entries close today at 5pm, with a $5 entry fee applying. More information on the SSI winter competition is available by contacting Kim Kerr on 0409 139 833 or Fiona Devilee on 0419 563 449.
