Live CATS ONE of the longest-running shows in London’s West End and New York’s Broadway - CATS - is coming to Rosebud.

Three shows will be staged over the weekend 25-26 October at the Southern Peninsula Arts Centre.

Audiences at the Red Hill-based Billy Lids Theatre Company production will be transported to a purr-fect evening at "The Jellicle Ball", with the junkyard set transformed into a night-time playground for cats of all shapes and sizes.

There’ll be Rum Tum Tugger and Old Deuteronomy, Macavity - who is never at the scene of the crime - and magical Mr Mistoffelees.

Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer will cat around on stage, Growltiger will make his last stand, and the show-stopping Memory will be sung by Grizabella, the one-time glamour cat.

“The fact that it is a youth production really makes it so much more impressive - many of these children will be the stars of tomorrow. I have been really blessed to have worked with such a great musical director, John Carlo Belotti, and such an amazing group of young people,” director/choreographer Billy-Jo Royle said.

Plea for police to stay Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE anticipated deployment of muchneeded police from Rosebud to the new station at Somerville has “outraged” local residents, the organiser of a public meeting to protest the moves says.

Resident Barry Irving will be joined

by Police Association secretary Ron Iddles and his deputy, Bruce McKenzie, speaking at the meeting at 7pm, Wednesday 29 October, at the Rosebud Memorial Hall.

He expects a big crowd to attend.

“Residents and business owners in the Rosebud, Rye, Sorrento and Dromana areas are outraged that 30 specialist police officers may be re-

moved from stations in their towns to work out of the new Somerville station more than 40 kilometres away,” he said.

He worries that the police will be from front-line units including highway patrol, criminal investigation and crime scene.

“Locals are concerned that there are barely enough police officers to patrol and respond to calls for police service as it is, a problem which always gets worse during the summer months when holidaymakers swell the population here to more than 200,000.

“These police officers provide a very important investigative and road trauma prevention role which will be lost to us if the proposed move goes ahead.

General duties police will also lose their important back-up response from these specialist units at busy times.”

Mr Irving said he was concerned that there would be “just 11 additional police officers allocated to the southern peninsula during this busy time”.

“We hope that as many business owners, community members and offduty police officers as possible will attend this important event so that we can collectively express our fears about a reduction in community safety on the southern peninsula and the loss of police expertise the community can ill-afford to lose, particularly during the summer months.”

He said concerned locals could sign a petition to keep the “experienced, spe-

“Victoria Police is currently undertaking an organisational review involving several work units in Southern Metro Region Division 4 (Frankston and Mornington Peninsula PSAs),” superintendent Neil Paterson said.

“I am unable to pre-empt the outcome of the review as it is not finalised and necessarily involves consultation with staff and unions as required by the current enterprise agreement.”

Police Association secretary Ron Iddles described the positioning of the new Somerville police station as a “political decision not based on demographics or population growth”.

He said the site was chosen after lobbying by Hastings MP Neale Burgess.

“As the sitting member he was entitled to ask for it to be built there,” Mr Iddles said.

However, he said the station’s siting – away from population areas and summer hotspots of Rye and Rosebud – meant police were too far away from the action.

“We are concerned about where police are going to come from to fill the station,” he said.

Chisholm upgrade on course Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au FRANKSTON’S Chisholm TAFE is set to become a premier tertiary training centre – no matter who wins next month’s state election.

Premier Denis Napthine dropped in to Frankston last week to announce a $45.5 million redevelopment of the Chisholm institute.

Chisholm Institute CEO Maria Peters, Dr Napthine and Higher Education and Skills Minister Nick Wakeling unveiled a joint plan to redevelop the Frankston campus to include an advanced manufacturing and trades training base, and a new centre for health and community services.

Chisholm will contribute $23.6m to the redevelopment, while the state government has pledged $21.9m.

Ms Peters confirmed the state’s $21.9m contribution would be fully allocated in any incoming government’s budget, whether that be a Liberal National Coalition or Labor state government.

She told The News that discussions with the state government and Major Projects Victoria had begun about 18 months ago.

“It was identified that Frankston needed development,” Ms Peters said.

“It’s very exciting for the people of our region.”

Ms Peters said a bachelor of engineering technology degree would be offered at Frankston Chisholm for the first time as a result of the planned new Centre for Advanced Manufacturing and Trades, which will be built onsite.

The near $22m government investment would be used to “kick start” the project, Ms Peters said.

She envisaged a “two-year build” once construction began, with a Centre for Health and Community Services, VET, and tertiary studies planned for the campus redevelopment.

A “conceptual” plan of the revamp of Chisholm’s three Frankston buildings was displayed when Premier Napthine visited the campus.

Ms Peters said there would be “evolving developing stages”, with further planning to take place over the next 12 months.

The CEO said he was confident Chisholm Frankston could finance future stages in the campus redevelopment in conjunction with “funding available at that time”.

A statement issued by the Premier and Mr Wakeling stated: “The new facilities at Chisholm are strategically located, with 60 per cent of Victoria’s automotive supply chain companies located in Melbourne’s south-eastern

suburbs. This project will enable Chisholm Institute to cater for automotive workers who want to transition to new jobs in the advanced manufacturing and trades industries.”

The financial support for Chisholm’s Frankston campus comes two years af-

ter the Coalition state government, under then premier Ted Baillieu, stripped about $30m a year from Chisholm TAFE’s budget as part of $300m annual TAFE sector funding cut across Victoria.

“It’s been a challenge and we ad-

justed our business model,” Ms Peters said.

“We’ve managed to maintain the quality of our product.”

She praised staff for their professionalism in ensuring the Frankston campus maintained its high education standards.

Mr Wakeling’s statement blamed the previous Labor state government for the TAFE sector’s woes, citing “a botched introduction of the open market by Labor in 2008.”

In August, opposition spokesman for skills and apprenticeships Steve Herbert said many Victorian TAFE providers faced “a bleak future”.

“Students have seen a drop of over $100m in state government operational funding to TAFE, as well as massive fee hikes, large-scale staff sackings, and the outsourcing of teaching.”

Many TAFES suffered losses last financial year but Chisholm Frankston reported a net surplus of $30.6m.

Women tear strips off for charity snaps THE Dromana Dee’s have posed for a racy calendar to raise money for the Oncology Day Unit at Rosebud Hospital.

The tight knit group of 13 ladies - all over the age of 50 posed for a series of photos on Dromana beach.

Group founder Heather Smethurst said they “had a ball” taking the photos. “We took them on the beach in winter – it was freezing,” she laughed.

“We figured there would be less people on the beach then but we still had to duck for cover when people walked past.”

Ms Smethurst said the Dromana Dee’s like to have fun and do a bit of good for the local community. “We chose to donate the proceeds of our calendar to the Rosebud Hospital Oncology day unit because it is something that is close to our hearts,” she said.

Cancer is the leading cause of death in Victoria. It is estimated that cancer diagnosis will increase by a staggering 60 per cent over the next 10 years.

Rosebud Hospital performed more than 1700 treatments last year in the Oncology Day Unit.

Calendars are $15 with all proceeds going to the Rosebud Hospital Oncology day unit.

The ladies will launch their calendar at 7.30pm Friday at The Peninsula Club, Dromana. To pre-order call 0400 850 043.

Govt flies low over aero grant Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au TURBULENCE surrounding a $1 million infrastructure grant had Peninsula Aero Club in a tailspin last week.

The funding was approved by a department overseen by club member and state aviation industry minister Gordon Rich-Phillips - raising conflict-of-interest accusations.

The money - for airfield upgrades - is coming from the state government's $20 million Victorian Regional Aviation Fund for upgrading regional public use airport infrastructure. Peninsula Aero Club is private and borders the outer-urban fringe. It’s not regional and, strictly speaking, is not public use.

Another point of interest was that the usually publicity hungry state government had kept details of the taxpayerfunded grant under wraps – whereas such largess is usually greeted with much fanfare, especially with an election due next month.

Mr Rich-Phillips represents the South Eastern Metropolitan Region, which runs as far south as Baxter – near Tyabb.

He told the ABC he “took advice, sought advice from the Department of Premier and Cabinet around managing any conflicts of interest. Acting on that advice, I put in place delegations so that this matter, or that any matter indeed related to that facility, was dealt with by departmental officers without any reference to me or my office”.

Mr Rich-Phillips said the program applied to regional airports - those in regional municipalities or ‘interface’

Coles bows out COLES Sorrento will close at the end of the week but the site will remain a supermarket – and not a McDonald’s restaurant as rumoured.

Outgoing manager Stephen Phillips was unable to comment other than say the move was on. He could not confirm that the building would become – as is tipped - a Ritchie’s supermarket.

However, it’s believed Coles will still retain the adjoining Liquorland outlet – the largest in the area after the closure of the Sorrento hotel’s liquor sales outlet earlier this year.

Coles appears to be downsizing – having got rid of a reported six stores in the latest round of cuts. “I just think they’re happy the site’s not going to Woollies,” Sorrento traders’ association vice president Marc Clavin quipped.

Coles head office did not return calls.

Cruisers ahoy

Landing rights: Liberal MP Gordon Rich-Phillips has defended a grant made by his department to Peninsula Aero Club, of which he is a member.

municipalities – and airports which are public use and from where aircraft operators operate.

"That's the criteria for upgrades and these are operational upgrades at airports across Victoria and that's the criteria at which this club would have been assessed," he said.

Mornington Peninsula Shire sustainability director Steve Chapple has described the airfield as mainly a “recreational facility”.

Aero club vice president Jack Vevers last week confirmed members had approached Mr RichPhillips about 18 months ago for the funding but that they had been

referred on to the Department of State Development, Business and Innovation.

“Yes, it’s true that we approached him, but we were quickly put at arm’s length,” Mr Vevers said.

“He was unaware we were going to apply and, when we did, told us, ‘I can’t deal with this’.

“We were asked to deal only with the department.”

Mr Rich-Philips operates his own plane, a Beechcraft Bonanza, from the airfield and has it stored in a hangar there. He has been a member for a year.

Mr Vevers said he would be sur-

prised if the minister “knew what was in the application”.

“We asked for money to improve the whole airport precinct,” he said.

“We want to replace runway lights, widen the taxiway, replace runway cross overs, replace a damaged apron area, and a tired old staff area that’s been there 50 years.”

Asked whether the airfield was used by members of the public, he said: “All the time. It is a private airstrip but it is used daily by crayfish suppliers, charter tours and all emergency services. We even get international visitors, and flying classes are conducted here.”

THE cruise ship season has started with the arrival of the Dawn Princess, with 85 ships expected to enter Port Phillip by next June.

The Mornington Peninsula will receive its first visit by a passenger liner with the arrival of the Pacific Pearl early next year.

Major Events Minister Louise Asher said 12 more ship visits were being made than in 2013/14.

The number of Australians taking a cruise is growing by 20 per cent a year and is expected to reach one million by 2016.

“Three Princess Cruises ships – The Diamond Princess, The Dawn Princess, and The Sun Princess – will visit Melbourne between now and April 2015,” Ms Asher said.

“The trio will make a total of 24 Melbourne port calls, accounting for almost a third of the city’s total ship visits.”

A further 14 Carnival-owned ships will visit Melbourne this season, while the Seabourn Odyssey will also call in at Geelong and the Pacific Jewel and Pacific Pearl will visit Portland.

Hall revamp cost more than $1m David Harrison david@mpnews.com.au ROSEBUD Memorial Hall could have cost more than $1 million to rejuvenate, councillors were told in a confidential briefing in June last year.

The hall was then to have been incorporated into the proposed $40 million Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre.

It is now proposed as an entirely new structure within the four SPA designs submitted in the design competition.

Council staff detailed the work required on the existing hall and its cost.

They provided three options, the first of which was to do nothing – “possible to delay a major upgrade for many years”. This would have resulted in a $27,000 benefit, the report calculated.

Option 2, “ based on recent experience with this sort of work”, would have cost $900,000, to which option 3, “ultimate service level”, would have added a further $105,000.

The report stated that the hall “is not listed as a strategically important facility” and had “no specific strategic significance as a hall except for its capacity, being one of the largest halls in

the shire”, able to accommodate more than 200 people.

It also noted that the building was “located in a very demanding environment on the foreshore making it susceptible to attack by the salt spray, wind and vandalism. It was scheduled to be painted every five years.

The hall, which is well used, would be improved by better heating and air conditioning, better access and more efficient energy use. Further improvement could be held over “until current building priorities in public toilets, community centres, preschools and sports pavilions have been addressed”, the report stated.

In later confidential workshops, councillors discussed the Rosebud foreshore more generally. It was described by one councillor as “already a messy conglomeration of buildings, car parking spaces and unkempt bushland on the sand hills (north of proposed SPA site) … any new development and associated remediation would be an improvement”.

Another councillor stated that locating the proposed SPA at the site “makes sense … water activities near

water, jogging tracks, parkland, open space”.

A further contribution argued: “As the sand hill between the proposed SPA site and the foreshore is already so high I do not believe that a low roofed structure will detract from already limited horizon sightlines from the Nepean Highway.”

None of the four designs submitted for the proposed foreshore site could be described as “low roofed”.

One of the plus points for the shireowned land in Wannaeue Place was that it had “Great potential for other civic services in future, ie library, shire office … Possible site for new shire office in 2020”. This anticipates Cr Hugh Fraser’s recent proposal for use of this land.

Under the heading Next Steps, “funding” was listed along with “confirm needs analysis” and “business case”. Also included was the need to “provide the information we've had to the community to assist all to explain the decision”.

One councillor, in an apparent reference to Cr Graham Pittock’s inability to vote on SPA matters – including

voting on the annual budget, because it refers to the SPA – asked: “Can we separate SPA and Rosebud rejuvenation, so all councillors can participate in discussions of the latter? (this was supported by all)”.

It is believed some councillors are considering seeking a dispensation from Local Government Minister Tim Bull that would allow Cr Pittock to vote on SPA matters, using the precedent of dispensations granted about 1990 to share-owning councillors when the huge Mornington shopping centre came before council.

The councillors would have been conflicted by their share interests but the project was considered so important that they needed to be able to participate in council discussions and voting. Besides that, it is believed the council would have lacked a quorum without them.

Cr Pittock is conflicted because of his Tonic squash and gym complex in Dromana and the proposal for the SPA to include a gym. This gym is now in doubt whether the complex is built on the foreshore or at Wannaeue Place.

Peninsula art celebrates a birthday DROMANA Art Show is celebrating 40 years of showcasing artworks from the Mornington Peninsula and elsewhere.

It will hold a show over Melbourne Cup weekend – 1-4 November - with opening night at 7pm on the Friday.

The $20 entry includes nibbles, complimentary glass of wine from Elgee Park winery, or beer from the Mornington Peninsula Brewery. Entertainment will be by local musician Dan Thornell. Entry over the weekend from 10am-5pm is $5.

Visitors will see a collection of works: from painting and photography, craft and jewellery in the artisan shop, to the new sculpture category.

Also, on show will be a range of contemporary and traditional art from several mediums and materials appealing to appreciators and buyers in all price ranges.

There will be demonstrations by exhibiting artists, workshops in weaving and book binding on the Saturday, and a supervised children’s craft activity station on the Sunday, so parents can enjoy a glass of Hickinbotham wine as they peruse the art. Bookings are required for these demonstrations. A $2 donation will cover the cost of materials.

Sea wall work REPAIRS are about to start on the sea wall west of Portsea pier.

The work will take about eight weeks “ready in time for the peak summer period at this popular holiday spot, which is a fantastic outcome for the local community”, MP for Nepean Martin Dixon said.

The work includes a new walking path from the pier around the back of the beach and across the headland to Fishermans Beach.

Sections of the beach will be closed 7am-6pm on weekdays although the access to the beach will reopen on weekends.

Charity golf A CHARITY golf day and auction is being held at Portsea Golf Club on Friday 31 October.

The $100 entry includes a “gourmet” barbecue dinner.

Money raised by the event will go to Sorrento Football Club and Peninsula Home Hospice.

The golf day starts at 2pm. Bookings at Moonraker Dolphin Swims , George St, Sorrento, call 5984 4211.

‘Recovering’ roads MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire receive $6.88 million for roadworks over the next five years.

The money comes from the federal government’s Roads to Recovery program.

Flinders MP Greg Hunt said the works would provide relief for “frustrated road users”.

“The maintenance of these roads comes at a significant cost to local councils, which is why the Australian government is doubling Roads to Recovery payments to councils next year to $700 million,” Mr Hunt said.

The mayor Cr Antonella Celi said the shire would submit specific projects for Roads to Recovery funding once the proposed project program was finalised.

Anti- port party

Resin art: Mitch Gobel founded The Vision Project which has raised funds for Wildlife Warriors.

Feature artists are painter Sam Michelle and sculptor Paul Kelly.

Michelle’s works can be seen at The Suburban Gallery, Brighton, and The Province Artist Studio, Berwick.

Bottle launch: Shirley Flett christens Southern Peninsula Two watched by squad members.

Rescue squad takes new boat on board THE bay is twice as safe now that the Southern Peninsula Rescue Squad has launched its second rescue vessel - a 7.5 metre Naiad.

About 50 invited guests watched as Shirley Flett, wife of former SES member Arthur Flett, who passed away late last year, poured champagne over the bow to christen Southern Peninsula Two. “Having a second boat will provide

greater flexibility for emergency call-outs, as well as addressing some training issues caused by its growing membership,” president Eileen Murray said.

“It will allow the squad to better serve the annual swim events and other community activities in which it is involved.

“And we thought having Shirley name it would be a fitting way to

honour Arthur's memory.”

The new boat has the same modern electronic and communication equipment as the squad’s larger vessel Southern Peninsula One - enabling the crew to move between vessels without extra training. It is powered by two 175hp outboards.

The new boat had a baptism by fire: A few days after its delivery on 28 July it was put to work with SP1 to

maintain an exclusion zone off Point Nepean for the First Shot Commemoration ceremony.

Southern Peninsula Rescue members are all volunteers. To get further information call 0458 143 041, check out the Facebook page or log in to southernpeninsularescue.com.au.

All training is provided at no cost to volunteers in a friendly and supportive atmosphere.

ROSEBUD police intercepted a Mitsubishi Lancer in Point Nepean Rd, Dromana at 3.30am on Monday 6 October.

They said a search of the vehicle revealed the drug ice, as well as a number of weapons, including a meat cleaver and a fold-out knife.

As a result, three men have been charged with drug possession and weapons offences. A 37-year-old from Frankston North has been bailed to appear at Dromana Magistrate’s Court on 26 February; a 25-year-old from Mt Waverley has been bailed to appear at Dandenong Magistrate’s Court on 19 January, and a 38-yearold from Sandhurst has been bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrate’s Court on 13 January.

In another incident, a 22-year-old man from Safety Beach was charged with drug trafficking and related offences after Rosebud police intercepted a vehicle in Point Nepean Rd, Dromana at 3.25am on Tuesday 7 October.

Police allege a search of the vehicle revealed the drug ice and a number of items causing them to believe that the driver was trafficking the drug.

After the man was arrested and interviewed, a search warrant was executed at an address at Safety Beach. It revealed further evidence of trafficking ice. Police also allegedly discovered a small amount of cannabis and some cannabis seedlings growing in a bedroom.

The man was bailed to appear at the Dromana Magistrate’s Court on 12 March. He was placed on a curfew to remain at his place of abode between 9pm and 6am daily.

Auction to decide animals’ fate Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE auction of a Balnarring property on Saturday holds the fate of 260 native animals in its grasp.

The four hectare Black and White Swan sanctuary, owned by animal lover and pensioner Maryrose Kersting, is being sold by the Commonwealth Bank to repay mortgage debts.

She fears moving her beloved animals from the Stumpy Gully Rd property after so many years in the one place may stress and kill them.

Mrs Kersting, 70, has run the sanctuary for the past 20 years, caring for wallabies, pademelons, brush-tailed bettongs, sugar gliders, ringtail and brushtail possums, ducks and geese, emus, black and white swans, parrots, lorikeets, cockatoos, chooks, peacocks and pheasants.

Some species are listed as threatened in Victoria.

It is the only home many of the animals have ever known.

Mrs Kersting says she has spent “a couple of hundred thousand” dollars over the years erecting fox-proof fencing, digging nine dams and building fountains and enclosures for her charges, who she regards as family.

One, a red deer, will be 20 in December – making it possibly the oldest of its species in Australia.

The property is owned by a family printing business which reportedly ceased trading in March.

The property is tipped to sell for $1.2 million when auctioned by Satchwells Real Estate.

Mrs Kersting said she had tried to discuss the property’s future with the Cheltenham branch of the bank, where the mortgage is held, “but they won’t talk to me because I am old”.

“They’ll talk to my daughter but not me. I have sent them many letters – over two months ago - but they won’t get back to me.”

The emotional stress and heartache is damaging Mrs Kersting’s health as she battles to keep up with her daily chores of feeding the animals and maintaining the enclosures.

She says she desperately needs financial assistance to find a place to

live with her animals and to build suitable ponds, aviaries and yards to house them.

Asked about her future, she said: “I don’t know what will happen. I am scared of the future. I’d be devastated if I had to move.”

RSPCA Victoria visited the property last week with wildlife officers of the Department of the Environment and Primary Industry.

“We found no issues,” inspectorate manager Allie Jalbert said.

“In fact, this property was one of the

Native paradise GARDEN lovers can enjoy one of the region’s most renowned private native gardens this weekend, while helping raise money for poor African children. Mt Martha couple Cate and John Jaede will open their native garden at 38 Ellerina Rd to the general public next Saturday and Sunday.

The Jaedes’ expansive garden features hundreds of Australian native plants, complete with rocky creek and pond, and is a favourite destination for birds and butterflies. Richard Anderson of Merricks Nursery will also be on hand share his extensive knowledge of Australian plants at the event. The opening has been organised to help raise funds for Mrs Jaede’s volunteer efforts in Africa with Kwaya Uganda.

Plea to keep the police

Camera angle: Nepean MP Martin Dixon with members of the Rye’s Up! community group, David Trunfull (president) and Mechelle Cheers (secretary) discuss where security cameras might be located in Rye if the Coalition government is re-elected.

Picture: Yanni

Liberal promise for security cameras RYE residents will have to wait until after 29 November state election to find out if their shopping centre will be fitted with security cameras.

Nepean MP Martin Dixon, who will be the Liberal party’s candidate, said on Friday that if re-elected the Napthine Coalition government will provide $250,000 towards CCTV cameras for the Rye shopping precinct.

“The local community has expressed concern about safety at the Rye shopping precinct and local traders in particular have been victims of vandalism.”

Mr Dixon said the Rye Beach Community Action

group had persisted in lobbying for CCTV cameras and he welcomed “the decision by Crime Prevention Minister Edward O’Donohue to make this important election commitment”.

“This CCTV installation on the Southern Peninsula will give welcome security to residents, traders and visitors and will be a vital tool in preventing and solving crime on our streets.” Mr Dixon said.

Mr O’Donohue said that Mornington Peninsula Shire will be responsible for the installation and maintenance of the cameras.

Continued from Page 1 “A 24-hour station requires at least 32 police to man it and we understand that crime scene, criminal investigation and highway patrol police will be moved from other, smaller stations on the peninsula, such as Hastings.

“We’ve been told that detectives from Rosebud will be moving to Somerville – but it is 40 kilometres away from where they will be doing most of their work. If they want to interview a suspect from Rye, for example, they will have to drive to pick him up and then take him to Somerville to do the interview and then drive him back home – about 80 kilometres. It’s all going to take a very long time.”

Mr Iddles described policing in Rosebud and Rye as “country policing”.

“When a uniformed policeman turns up at a situation he can usually expect back up from others at the station - uniformed police or detectives – but now this won’t happen because they’ll be too far away.”

Rosebud police station is expected to lose 31 police to Somerville – leaving 59 to oversee Rosebud, Rye and Dromana.

“They say it’s all about centralised policing, but there’s no sense in having police investigating crime in Rosebud having to go all the way back to Somerville and other units operating with no support because highway patrol can’t move along Nepean Highway at peak times.

“That’s jeopardising the safety of our members.”

Mr Iddles said another concern was that, over time, and after the 31 police had been moved to Somerville, “the chief commissioner might say, ‘there’s extra space at Rosebud now so let’s move police from Sorrento there and just have a shop front at Sorrento’.”

The same scenario would see police at Hastings moved to Somerville.

Graham Martin, who has run Rosebud Towing and Rye Motors for 20 years – and been a CFA member for 40 years said the highway police role in allocating damaged cars to tow truck operators, and in assessing accidents where a person is injured, meant they had to be on the spot – and quickly.

“I can’t see the move [to Somerville] working,” he said. “The highway patrol is involved in 90 per cent of the vehicle accidents down here and if we have to wait around for them to come from Somerville it will mean traffic gets banked up for hours.

“And if they have to go back to Somerville to do paperwork we would have to wait even longer.

“If we have to do a salvage job - and block off the road - it means we will be tied up waiting for a police car for an hour or more. They might as well be at Frankston.”

Mr Martin said peak season tourist numbers would hamper police mobility: “Imagine what it will be like waiting for them to arrive from Somerville,” he said.

Hastings MP Neale Burgess said he would attend the meeting “if it goes ahead”.

“Our community values its local police officers and local police stations very highly, and it's fair to say that not everyone fully appreciates how important that relationship is,” he said.

“I have been in contact with police from Rosebud and the Police Association to get more details about their concerns. I've spoken with Mr Iddles and will be meeting with him over the next week or so.”

Notice this board: Leading Senior Constable Julie Simpson and Acting Sergeant Annette Reynolds with the Crime Stoppers board.

Board to battle crime ROSEBUD Plaza centre management and Victoria Police are taking a collaborative approach toward tackling crime at the local retail precinct.

A Crime Stoppers poster board will provide shoppers with a chance to assist police identifying offenders and provide valuable information toward solving local crimes.

Research indicates these type of projects are also seen as a deterrent to 'would be offenders' reducing the opportunities for crime and anti-social behaviour within the shopping centre.

The success of the Crime Stoppers board relies on awareness and support from members of the public and will be one of the ongoing community safety initiatives by local police over the coming months.

"Working with the centre management team has really provided us with great support to help make the area safer for all of the community,â&#x20AC;?

Officer in Charge of the Rosebud Police Station.

Senior Sergeant Andrew Horscroft said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People should feel comfortable to shop without worrying about seeing or hearing anti-social behaviour - or becoming a victim of a crime. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The more support we get from the community - the greater success this can be.â&#x20AC;?

The collaboration between the local police and plaza centre management is a positive step toward community safety in the area and provides scope for further crime prevention opportunities.

The Crime Stoppers board is opposite Coles and adjacent to the community notice board. It will be updated with Crime Stoppers alerts each month.

Anyone with any information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at crimestoppersvic. com.au Stephen Taylor

Southern Peninsula News 14 October 2014

SOCCER players and their families from all over the peninsula turned out for a benefit day on 28 September for club stalwart Bobby Geddes, who is suffering from motor neurone disease.

Such is their regard for him that teams from Karingal, Mornington, Baxter, Langwarrin and Mt Eliza competed to raise $6000 on the gala day – Bobby’s Day - which attracted about 350 people.

They posed for photographs with Mr Geddes, his wife Leanne and son Jack, 9. The couple have two other children aged 2 and 4.

The games followed a fundraising party earlier in the month for Mr Geddes “so everyone could get together with him and celebrate his life,” club president Mick Hardy said.

“About 450 attended and we raised about $4000 for his family. It was a great night.”

The club also hosted a trivia night on 3 October at Seaford Community Hall for another 270 people and raised around $20,000.

The man described by Mr Hardy as a “top bloke” has been part of the Langwarrin Soccer Club since 1985. “To see how many people have come together to support him and acknowledge him has been amazing,” he said.

“Getting the disease is just bad luck. I’ve watched him over the past eight months when he’s been working with me to now not being able to put one foot in front of the other. It’s a tragedy.”

Mr Hardy described Mr Geddes as an “outgoing bloke very well known on the peninsula. You’ve only got to mention his name; everyone likes him.”

Celebration exhibition: Works by artists John Whitelaw and Wendy Easton feature in the upcoming Peninsula Arts Society’s 60th anniversary exhibition. Picture: Gary Sissons

Decades of art and friendship on show PENINSULA Arts Society will celebrate its 60th anniversary next month with a show over the Melbourne Cup weekend.

The society began in March 1954 when professional artists from all parts of the peninsula met at the Mechanics Hall at the invitation of residents and art enthusiasts Colin and Maidie McGowan.

A committee was formed and Peninsula Arts Society was born – making it the first official arts society to be established on the Mornington Peninsula.

Meetings were held in various places around Frankston and the society eventually bought a property at 13 Overton Rd, Frankston, which was used for eight years. In 1988 the society built its own studio and gallery on land in Overport Park leased from the Frankston Council. In 1999 the premises were extended, adding an extra studio.

“From its humble beginnings, the membership of more than 600 artists has grown into a vibrant and thriving artistic community of members who

regularly meet and exhibit,” member Wendy Easton said.

“They enjoy the friendship that emanates through all the varied fine art classes, regular workshops, demonstrations and social activities offered to novice and experienced artists by outstanding renowned tutors.”

Ms Easton said the society’s continued success and strength lay in its “wealth of artistic excellence and education, its ability to give back to the community, raising money for charitable causes and its spirit of camaraderie, providing a place of support and nurturing for all”.

All these things come together at the annual Cup Weekend Spring Art Show – 1-4 November - and Diamond Anniversary Show.

The shows are at 159 Overport Rd, Frankston South 10am-5pm. Entry is free. Details: pasinfo@bigpond.com or call 9775 2640. Visit peninsulaartssociety.org.au Art works will be on display and for sale.

LETTERS Consultation lack The MP for Nepean Martin Dixon (‘Legal fight looms over Point plan’, The News 7/10/14) in defending the Point Leisure Group’s excessive development plans for the Point Nepean Quarantine Station, claims that there was community consultation conducted during 2012 in the preparation of the Point Nepean National Park Master Plan (April 2013) and the Point Nepean Quarantine Station Sustainable Use and Tourism Framework (April 2013).

Two brief quotes from these documents are sufficient to disprove Mr Dixon’s claim.

On page 49 of the 2013 master plan it states: “Consultation within the community and with stakeholders has been undertaken in two phases.

The first of these occurred in February–March 2010 and involved gaining initial inputs primarily from known stakeholder groups. The second phase in July–August 2010 focused on gaining feedback on the draft master plan and involved revisiting stakeholders in addition to engaging with the wider community”.

On page 19 of the tourism framework, it states that its preparation was informed by the “outcomes of the previous consultation programs with stakeholder groups and the wider community during the preparation of the Point Nepean National Park Master Plan (2012)”, which was actually the 2010 consultation.

The incoming minister after the state election rejected the 2012 master plan produced from the 2010 consultation. The new 2013 master plan and the 2013 tourism framework were prepared without any further consultation – no-one in the community was even aware of the tourism framework being developed – and with a greater

emphasis on development, serving to drive the Coalition government’s desire to commercially develop Victoria’s national parks and to give property developers like Point Leisure Group more room to move.

Thus Mr Dixon’s claim at the end of his letter that the Point Leisure Group’s development at the Quarantine Station will be consistent with these two documents is a hollow one.

The developments will, in fact:  Severely restrict existing public access to the Quarantine Station by the creation of exclusive enclaves for the paying guests of luxury spa centres and a luxury hotel;  Damage several hectares of threatened coastal moonah woodland to construct geothermal rock pools, boardwalks, glamping tents and new car parks;  Encourage increased boating traffic to the site and put at risk the local dolphins by building a jetty in the Ticonderoga Dolphin Sanctuary.

And the government’s new planning zone for the Quarantine Station would allow future subdivision and does not rule out high-rise buildings, thus the very real likelihood of development creep.

Instead of a well-organised, timely, rigorous and transparent consultation process, the community has been kept in the dark on the details of the development proposals and leasing arrangements, and will be locked out of future planning approvals processes because key decisions will be made behind closed doors between the developer and the government.

This the outcome we get when “commercial-in-confidence” is enshrined in the planning process.

Chris Smyth, Williamstown

Appalled by plan I am totally appalled by the state gov-

ernments plan to sign a 99-year lease to developers for a large area of Point Nepean National Park.

This action shows a total disregard for community members who protested in their thousands against such a plan.

Point Nepean is a national treasure and not a money making scheme for developers.

The Premier Denis Napthine has ignored the Australian community’s wish to keep all of Point Nepean in public hands as a national park allowing public access in perpetuity.

These secretive government negotiations have had minuscule public consultation and have ignored the years of proper planning by both the community master plan and the state planning committee.

We need a proper consultation process for Point Nepean to plan a lasting future which protects the parks environmental cultural and Heritage values for future generations in perpetuity.

Vicki Sullivan, Rye

Inland answer What part of “no pool on the rosebud foreshore” do Crs Antonella Celi, Anne Shaw and Andrew Dixon not understand? The Minister for the Environment Ryan Smith strengthened the Coastal Management Act to prevent enormous structures such as SPA (Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre) from being built on Crown Land foreshore.

Nepean MP Martin Dixon perhaps should get a grasp of his education portfolio before he tries to interfere with the Environment Minister’s decisions.

The “pro pool on the foreshore people” have yet to come up with a sound, logical reason as to why it should be placed there. They appear to

just “want it there”.

Cr David Gibb is to be commended for changing his stance on the positioning of SPA. It must have been difficult for him to do this but, in the interest of consensus and a way forward, he has been willing to alter his position. Well done David.

The anti-pool people have never been against a pool. We have always said “build it inland”. SPA does not have broad based community support as a newspaper poll showed that 63 per cent did not want a pool on the foreshore and 70 per cent of submitters at a public meeting said no pool on the foreshore and to build it inland.

A pool would have been built inland years ago, however, what the pro-pool advocates didn’t tell us was that there was never any money nor were there any plans other than the pretty pictures they have presented us with now.

The majority want a pool when we can afford it but not on the Rosebud foreshore.

John Cain, McCrae

Councillor praise Congratulations to Cr David Gibb in showing leadership on the contentious issue of the siting of the Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre (SPA).

Wannanue Place is an ideal site and the traders of Rosebud should benefit from the increased visitations to the shopping strip.

Perhaps we can now resolve our differences and celebrate the resolution of what has been a very divisive issue.

Eunice Cain, McCrae

Paper praise Oh how I love the S. Pen. News with social conscience in its views!

Unlike the daily drama press which leaves us feeling in a mess, this little paper seems to care

about us all, no matter where.

We need more of this attitude that seeks to build and to include.

And as for Brian Mitchelson I totally agree with him.

The fighting in our shire debates echo our government heavyweights.

Our heritage is trashed each day in a most amazing way handed on to corporate greed at the expense of those in need.

And when the jobless turn to crime build more gaols to serve them time!

Mine more coal, pollute the skies never mind our own demise!

Keep the hate and fear alive so “divide and rule” may thrive.

We’re an international clown watch our Aussie shares drop down.

Myopic rule we suffer now, economy our holy cow.

But even cows must have contextwithout environment they’re hexed.

What’s needed is a rounder view that sees beyond the purse-strings too.

This lot do not seem to think they do not see the obvious link between us all and where we dwell.

Those with nothing will rebel, and when the climate food denies eating money won’t suffice.

And besides a nation’s wealth is correlated to its health.

Weird climate, fear and poverty do not assist the GDP. Take policies to their conclusion and we’re faced with huge delusion.

Don’t worry though - I have solutions to these government pollutions.

For CEO of Mornpenshire: SP News Ed. I would hire.

This Ed stands for humanity, compassion and diversity.

The federal govt. is not so easy (what else rhymes but sleazy?)

As myopia tops the list, perhaps an ophthalmologist!

Boots on the ground THE Abbott Government’s much-touted Green Army scheme is finally up and running on the peninsula, with the region’s first team swinging into action last week.

Environment Minister and Flinders MP Greg Hunt officially launched the Green Army at Chinamans Creek last week, welcoming the first team of 10 for their first day on the job.

Over the next 26 weeks, the team will carry out a range of works, including landscaping, revegetation, weed control and eradication, track restoration, and habitat enhancement at seven locations across the peninsula.

Projects include creek rejuvenation, weed control and revegetation at Chinamans Creek, landscaping and revegetation at Red Hill Community Park, weed control along Red Hill Rail Trail, weed eradication, track restoration and revegetation in Mornington Peninsula National Park, habitat enhancement and weed control at Arthurs Seat State Park, habitat enhancement at Balcombe Creek in Mt Martha, and weed control weed control within the Red Hill South Biolink.

All aboard the journey to another age THE sight and sound of steam locomotives has a visceral effect on gentlemen and ladies of a certain age â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and, it seems, on children of all ages.

Witness the effect of loco K163, once a derelict decoration in a Frankston park, now in gleaming working order, hissing and huffing as it gently nudges up to equally glorious restored carriages at Moorooduc railway station.

These things have souls, surely!

And surely that short, sharp warning is emanating from a five-chime Lunkenheimer steam whistle, causing tiny startled leaps among passengers waiting to board on a recent Sunday morning?

Men in uniform fuss around the gasping loco, like bees around their

queen. We are gathered to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the first train to run on the Mornington line â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and the 30th anniversary of the arduous battle to save the loco and the line.

Mornington was part of the railway frenzy of Gold Rush Victoria, when a line was built to every electorate. After a few hiccups, the line was declared closed to traffic on 8 March 1983.

All aboard to the ringing of a bell.

The flag is waved. The train lurches into life with complaining creaks and squeaks. This is how a real train sounds.

Then off to Mornington, clickettyclicking just as the first train in 1889 would have done and as Melbourne suburban lines used to, past grazing

stock in manicured paddocks at a leisurely pace, warning with a wavering hoot as we approached roads, mutual vigorous waving from carriage to car, a woman wiping a cinder from her eye then closing the train window.

Some 20 minutes later, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re there.

Everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s out and rushing to watch as the loco is shunted from stem to stern for the trip back. Applause as the coupling occurs with the merest click.

The Mornington Railway Preservation Society (morningtonrailway.org. au) has achieved mightily in its 30 years. It has moved several times â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from Frankston to HMAS Cerberus (they had spare a siding), then to its Moorooduc home â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with rolling stock, the formidable K173 and assorted

buffers and bogeys. Moving a fridge is tough enough: a steam locomotive?

They have built a station, moved and installed a footbridge, renovated the â&#x20AC;&#x153;roadâ&#x20AC;? with line and sleeper, and now are laying more line, to Baxter.

(Is that lad rather young to be driving this 63-tonne behemoth?)

Look across from the Moorooduc platform, where CWA ladies are offering passengers delightfully old-fashioned freshly cooked biscuits and slices, to the second steam loco, the carriages and wagons awaiting restoration, to the big old diesel loco, engine drumming, awaiting its turn to perform.

This writer took a steam train to and from school in Hobart many, many

decades ago. What fun! The spur line to the Cadbury factoryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s station was at the top of a testing incline for a train arriving in the morning loaded with workers.

Some naughty boys greased the track one morning. The train puffed furiously but failed to make the grade in several attempts. Smirking, the naughty boys, with an unassailable excuse for being late to class, walked down the hill past the surly workers walking up.

Note to wannabe train drivers: you can take steam or diesel for a spin, after suitable, er, training. A perfect gift for the boy turning 50 whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to take his birthday party for a ride.

Tips on how to land the fish

By Paul ‘Tracker’ Pingiaro EVEN with good numbers of squid, flathead, gummy sharks and salmon fishing in Port Phillip and Western Port is all about snapper.

So how do you go about landing a snapper? There are many things that you can do to increase your chances of landing a big red.

The number one tip I received from my father many years ago is that you have to fish where the fish are.

At its most basic this equates to fishing shallow waters (6-15 meters) at night and deeper waters during the day (16-22 meters).

Popular Snapper fishing destinations include Mornington, Carrum and St Kilda in Port Phillip and Hastings, Crib Point, and Rhyll in Western Port.

Timing is everything yet nothing at the same time. The peak times to land a snapper are dawn, dusk and the change of tide. My number one saying is that you will not catch a snapper in your office, Mother Nature in all her splendour has made fish both totally predictable and completely unpredictable.

Each year I see hundreds of snapper caught with none of the key times in play, you just have to be in it to win it.

Snapper fishing can be a waiting game. If you’re approaching a peak fishing time stay put, be patient and keep those lines in the water. I like to give a snapper spot at least two hours (preferably one hour either side of the prime time), then by all means move about or sound around for another spot.

Hard core snapper fishos should keep a dairy detailing date, time, tide, moon phase, location, weather conditions, bait and results. This will

Fish to order: James Rodgers of Unreel fishing charters got Steven Yau this lovely snapper from the Hospital Mark.

enable you to predict fish movements and help you plan your next snapper sortie.

Snapper fishing can be as complex or as simple as you like. From handlines to graphite rods, soft plastics and braided lines, there is a niche for every angler and their style.

I opt for a 4-7kg spinning outfit in Port Phillip and a 10kg overhead setup in Western Port.

My rig is always a running sinker rig with the sinker weight dictated by the conditions. I never use a wire trace when snapper fishing, 40-60lb monofilament is ample. Snapper snatchers/flasher rigs, soft plastics, jigs and even flies all account for their share of snapper, but it’s bait fishing that is the most popular entry level technique. Squid, pilchards, silver whiting, garfish and saurie are the

‘Missing woman’ found with friend SORRENTO SES crews spent several hours late on Sunday night and early Monday morning helping police search for a Rye woman - who was not lost.

Thirteen crew members turned out at 11pm on Sunday 5 October to search for the woman, 62, who had been reported as missing for five hours. She had gone for a walk with her dog and not returned.

The police air wing did a quick search - to no avail.

The SES’s Dave Lammers said the crew searched until around 3am on Monday morning with no result.

However, the woman was found

most popular baits for snapper.

Use only the freshest baits available but when the snapper are on the bite it won't matter what you offer. The trick is to entice them when they are not in a frenzy mode.

Anglers should match their hook size to their bait size, for small baits a size 2/0 hook could be ample but for larger baits a pair of 6/0 hooks may fit the bill.

Any fishing adventure should be planned. Check the weather as there is no point planning to go fishing if the wind is going to blow 30 knots.

Make sure you have all that you need, don’t look like a goose and run out of bait, hooks or sinkers. Be sure to have change for your launching fee. Know where your landing net is and most importantly if your boat fishing make sure that you have the correct safety equipment, enough fuel and a charged battery.

My top 10 snapper fishing tips: 1. Fish where the fish are.

2. Be prepared.

3 Patience.

4. Never use a wire trace.

5. Match hook size to bait size.

6. Don’t move during peak times.

7. The fresher the bait the better.

8. Fish as many lines as possible (limit four a person).

9. Keep a fishing diary.

10. Relax and enjoy.

safe and well at around 6.30am at a friend’s house.

The SES takes a philosophical view: “We'd rather search and find someone safe, than not search and for them be in serious trouble,” Mr Lammers said.

Also on Monday 6 October, the SES was called to Shoreham Rd, Shoreham at 9.30am, where a large tree had fallen onto the bonnet of a car just below the windscreen.

The Honda’s airbags deployed and the car was damaged beyond repair.

Luckily, the driver was not injured.

The SES crew spent an hour removing the tree from the car and the road.

Bridging the generation gap to bring history to life Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au HISTORY is about more than famous events, places or buildings. Some of the most fascinating historical stories are those about everyday people and their lives.

Seaford resident Bev Wilkinson is fascinated by the real-life tales told by older generations and decided to capture their life experiences for future generations as part of her selffunded Celebrate Living History project.

Older Australians’ life stories are documented on Ms Wilkinson’s Celebrate Living History website.

The Griffith University journalism graduate married her passion for the project with her industry contacts to launch an internship program to give journalist students the opportunity to interview seniors and curate their life stories.

“I contacted my former university lecturer on the Gold Coast and pitched the project as giving students the chance to learn interview skills while also learning about history,” Ms Wilkinson said.

The lecturer, Professor Stephen Stockwell, could see merit in the idea and the Celebrate Living History project was born in 2009.

Melbourne’s Swinburne University and its journalism students have also since joined the project.

“It’s great to give seniors who or-

dinarily may not have had an opportunity to tell their story the chance to shine,” Ms Wilkinson said.

She admitted it was difficult to gain the trust of some interviewees who were “a bit suspicious” at first until Celebrate Living History “gained credibility” but Ms Wilkinson finds most seniors approached for interview are happy to talk.

“Everyone’s story is important and it’s important for younger generations to know what life was like in the past.”

Ms Wilkinson is now inviting high school students to contribute to the Celebrate Living History project.

Frankston High School principal John Albiston was keen for the school’s Year 7 students to get involved.

“Their enthusiasm is so raw and their contributions have totally blown me away,” Ms Wilkinson said.

“When I’m editing their articles for the website I can’t believe they’re written by 11 and 12 year olds.”

The students’ work will be included in a Celebrate Living History of Frankston exhibition at the Frankston Art Centre’s Cube 37 gallery later this month.

Ms Wilkinson is always happy to speak to students wishing to contribute to the project, seniors who would like to be interviewed or corporate sponsors for the community-minded project.

She reckoned she had spent “about $8000”, excluding her time, on the

Celebrate Living History project to date which is a part-time passion self-funded by her freelance journalism work and customer service jobs.

“I really believe in this… if it was about money I would have given up a long time ago,” Ms Wilkinson said.

“I love what I do, I love writing and any day I get a chance to do more with the project is a great day.”

She thanked BAT Designs in Frankston for its in-kind support in designing the Celebrate Living History website and the Tax After Hours accountancy firm for its pro bono help with the paperwork required for a not-for-profit organisation.

“More sponsors are always needed to make it sustainable,” she said.  The Celebrate Living History in Frankston exhibition will be held at Frankston Art Centre, Cube 37, 2737 Davey St, Frankston on Tuesday 21 October until Saturday 25 October.

All welcome. Entry is by coin donation with all proceeds going to Celebrate Living History Australia which connects seniors and students to document stories.

Morning tea will be provided on Wednesday 22 October at Cube 37 from 10am-12pm.

Contact Celebrate Living History founder Bev Wilkinson at celebratelivinghistory@gmail.com or call 0402 926 131 for further details.

Don’t suffer painful feet and legs THEY’RE at the end of our bodies and often at the bottom of our priorities. But whilst most of the time we don’t give our feet a second thought, when something goes wrong with them it can be debilitating.

Our feet are vital for mobility and balance and are the basis of most of our physical activity, so it’s no wonder problems and pain are common. What many people aren’t aware of is that our feet can affect and cause problems in the rest of our bodies including; ankles, knees, hips, backs and necks. Bad foot posture can continually pull our bodies out of alignment, so any foot or leg pain should not be ignored.

Problems left untreated almost always get worse but there is often a simple solution, if you get the right advice and treatment. A Podiatrist who has specific expertise in musculoskeletal issues is the best person to help with any foot and leg pain or discomfort.

Dr. Tim Kirwan, from Foot & Leg Pain Clinics, one of Australia’s leading Musculoskeletal Podiatry practices focused on assisting pain, injury and degenerative issues says, “People often endure painful conditions for far too long.

They assume nothing can be done but, in fact, most condi-

Sore Feet or Legs? tions are extremely treatable.

Even many patients that have been told, there is no solution or that surgery and/or medication are their only options, we are now able to treat with great success. Recent medical advances are enabling us to treat most foot and leg problems quickly, easily, effectively and naturally.“ Foot + Leg Pain Clinics keep up-to-date with the latest in medical research and treatments and take a personal and holistic approach to ensure patients get results.

Dr. Kirwan explains, “I know from personal experience what it’s like to suffer

from foot and leg pain but you don’t have to put up with it.

With the right diagnosis and treatment from a practitioner that treats the cause and not just the symptoms, you can achieve successful long-term outcomes.”

If you suffer foot or leg pain & discomfort, bunions, heel pain, injuries or degenerative issues including arthritis, you can get expert assistance at Foot & Leg Pain Clinics.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Pick a winner in the Caulfield Cup Compiled by Melissa Hodge AT St. Paul’s Church, Frankston, on Sunday, services of humiliation and intercession on account of the drought will be held. A special form of prayer has been issued, to be used at every Church of England service in Victoria. *** THE result of the deputation arranged by the Frankston Progress Association to the Commissioners of Railways has resulted in an improvement to our service being promised on the commencement of the summer timetable in November.

The thanks of the Frankston public are due to the association for the addition to the timetable of a train leaving Melbourne at 11.15am, arriving at Frankston about 12.30 o’clock. This should be a great convenience to holiday makers and day trippers. *** OWING to various causes the working bee at the Frankston cemetery was not so large as had been intended.

There will be another today – see our advertising columns. *** THE Circuit Quarterly Meeting of the Frankston Methodist Church was held at Frankston on Wednesday, 30th. The minister, Rev R. Jackson, presiding.

Representatives from each place in the circuit were present.

The minister was unanimously invited to remain in the circuit another year.

The Shire President (Cr W. J. Oates) who was present as a member, was congratulated on his elevation to of-

fice, and complimented for his adherence to temperance principles.

The quarterly balance sheet disclosed a small credit balance.

The recent opening of Carrum Downs was reported upon favourably.

Feeling reference was made to the death of the late senior Circuit Steward (Mr A. E. Gault), who did so much to advance the interests of the church he loved and faithfully served.

A resolution was passed regarding the abolition of the wet canteen at Broadmeadows.

The ladies of the Frankston church kindly provided tea for the members and friends, for which hearty thanks were given. *** TODAY (Saturday) the Caulfield Cup will be run, and although it will be very hard to pick the winner, I am of the opinion that the judges verdict may result as follows :–Anna Carlovna or St. Carnawyne 1, Uncle Sam 2, Bon Ton 3. *** THERE was a moderate attendance at the Frankston Methodist Church on a Thursday evening when Sister Bessie, Home Mission Deputation, gave an interesting address on various areas of missionary work. The speaker was listened to attentively and much appreciated by those present. Rev Jackson occupied the chair. *** AT a meeting of the Chelsea Progress Association, held on Saturday evening, it was decided to support Aspendale district in an effort to get a

train from Melbourne put on between 5.32pm and 6.22pm. Members stated that many persons who were able to leave their offices in the city at 5.30 could not catch the first, and it was a great infliction to have to wait 50 minutes for the next. There are trains leaving for Mordialloc at 5.52 and 6.12. It was suggested that the former of these be cut to Chelsea and Carrum, and the meeting agreed to ask the Railway Commissioners either to put on a new through train or to let the 5.52pm train run it through. *** ON Tuesday the passenger traffic on the Caulfield, Mordialloc and Frankston lines was seriously delayed owing to the engine of a goods train breaking down at Malvern.

The goods train left Melbourne for| Berwick at 2.50pm and when the Malvern station was reached, the side rod of the engine snapped.

The train was then helpless, and as the line was blocked the passenger train which left Flinders Street at 3.30 for Oakleigh had to push the disabled goods on to Caulfield, where it was shunted on to a side line to await the arrival of a new engine.

This necessitated a long delay, and as a result the 3.50 down train to Mordialloc was held up for 40 minutes, and the train 38 which was to have left Flinders Street at 4.37 for Frankston did not depart until a quarter of an hour after its appointed time.

In addition, the running of several suburban passenger trains was interfered with, but traffic became normal again be-

fore the business rush set in at 5 o’clock. *** Encouraging Tree Planting THE Minister of Forests was waited on by representatives of the Victorian Fruit Growers’ Association, who had previously interviewed the Minister of Agriculture.

They stated that the Nurserymen and Seedmen’s Association had passed a resolution in approval of the attitude of the fruit growers in endeavouring to secure the reforestation of areas in the state, as this meant the beautification of the district; the provision of a supply of timber, which would be of value in the future; and the increase of the rain fall.

They presented a copy of this resolution, and they asked that the Minister should lend encouragement to replanting – for example, the replanting of from three to ten acre blocks, on the system followed in America.

The association, in addition to its concern for an active policy in the control of the forests had a special interest. It would benefit if the trees could be planted that would provide timber for box making.

The deputation suggested the planting of pine trees.

Mr Brown pointed out that under the existing law it was provided that settlers who planted their land with trees could be relieved of the higher taxes resulting from increase in value. The department was prepared to encourage reforestation but felt that it was already doing the work recommended by the association.

It had a plantation of pines covering about 1000 acres on French Island.

Last week they had conferred with officers on forestry, and it was fully recognised that more timber would be wanted in the future. *** TYABB. It is with deepest sympathy that we record the death of Mrs J. H. Thornell, of Hazelglen, who passed away rather suddenly on Wednesday morning last. The deceased had been suffering more or less during the last twelve months, but suddenly lapsed into a serious illness on Saturday last when her relatives at once realised that there was no hope for recovery. *** ON Monday evening last Sister Bessie, of the Livingstone Home Mission Society, gave a very interesting lecture in the local hall on missionary work.

A fairly large gathering assembled, and enjoyed listening to the speaker, and also to the anthems which were splendidly rendered by the Somerville Methodist Choir. The sum of 30s was taken up by collection towards the Mission Fund. *** THE Westernport entertainers gave another one of their grand concerts in the local town hall on Friday night last week, in aid of the brass band. Owing to the bad state of the weather, there was not as large an audience present as was anticipated, but those who were present were astonished at the progress made by the band.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Tales of a reluctant traveller

By Stuart McCullough IT was inevitable. I’d seen the first series of ‘What Really Happens in Bali’ and felt inspired. Heck, I can fall over, get drunk, say stupid and downright inappropriate things that makes millions of people wince whilst getting an horrific but reasonably priced tattoo as well as the next person. Clearly, this was the place for me. That my pale skin leaves me susceptible to third degree burns when exposed to anything heavier than a forty-watt light bulb would not dissuade me. Besides, they must be filming a second series by now. Given that my groundbreaking and ingenious offer to be the Bachelor whilst living exclusively inside the Big Brother compound was rejected, going to Bali and injuring myself could be my big break. So to speak.

There are so many reasons to go and only one reason to stay. To put it simply, my back is an empty canvas that is presently going to waste. I want a dragon. With fire coming out of its mouth and holding an electric guitar (preferably a Gibson Les Paul ‘57, if that’s not too much to ask). Next to it, I’ll get the Southern Cross and below that add a few Chinese characters which, in an act of supreme irony, I hope will say ‘Australian Made’, but will probably say ‘Property of the People’s Republic of China’. Bali is the land of discount tattooing. That your provider may be using a sharpened Paddle Pop stick as his tool of trade and drawing ink from a severed biro is all part of the joy of overseas travel. The reason for not go-

ing is simple: my abiding and deep respect for gravity.

I am not a good flyer. It’s one of many things at which I truly suck. I am awful Formula One driver, but I seldom if ever get asked to race. When it comes to laying down rhyme, I’m not much of a rapper even though my employee record names ‘ODB’ from the Wu Tang Clan as my next of kin. I am a hopeless thoracic surgeon although I did once write a film script called ‘Thoracic Park’ in which pre-historic medical practitioners at-

tack Jeff Goldblum, partly because he disturbed them in their natural habitat but mostly just for being Jeff Goldblum. Whilst I can avoid representing the Red Bull team, recording with the Wu Tang Clan and conducting surgery – both official and otherwise – some things you can only evade for so long.

Sitting next to me on a plane is not a fun experience. For a time, I travelled with work colleagues from Brisbane to Perth on a semi regular basis. I could almost see them age over the course of the flight, such was the effect of my

To advertise in Southern Peninsula News contact: Ricky Thompson on 0425 867 578 or ricky@mpnews.com.au

anxiety. This time, I’ve come prepared with the entire last season of ‘Breaking Bad’ loaded onto the iPad in the hope of distracting myself and, possibly, providing a vicarious viewing experience to the six year old sitting beside me that may well scar him or her for life.

Flying is the ultimate ‘don’t look down’ experience. But as I tighten my seatbelt on the plane, it’s clear that air-travel has changed. I wait for the moment to arrive, but it never does. It seems that somewhere in the quest for low-cost air travel we have abandoned the one thing that distinguished flying from other forms of transport: the hot towel. Frankly, without a hot towel I might as well be sitting on a tram.

Who is it that makes such monumental decisions? Is there a committee? Was there a plebiscite? The stewardess refuses to answer any of these questions no matter how often I push the button.

As a result, I’m forced to improvise by wetting one of my socks and using two biros as a makeshift pair of tongs. ‘Hot towel?’ I ask.

In flying terms, six hours is nothing.

But for someone who would rather extract his own teeth with a pair of barbecue tongs than get on a plane it’s a lot of time to distract yourself.

Walter White is well on the path to destruction and I’ve eaten a dehydrated meal of rice whose claims of being ‘Nasi Goreng’ are roughly as about as credible as my claims of being Miss Universe. Everyone around me seems incredibly relaxed, no doubt preoc-

cupied by having to decide which cut price tattoo to get first. When the flight touches down in Denpasar, I feel as though I’ve achieved something quite spectacular. We are herded onto a small bus to get to the terminal and I am struck in the back of the head by a mobile phone as a young holiday goer makes a face that resemble a fish recently injected with Botox and takes selfies. Forget boogie bags stuffed with contraband; if there’s anything that deserves a stretch in an Indonesian prison, it’s taking selfies on public transport. However, my attempts to report these activities to security staff are greeted with a chronic lack of interest.

When I travel, I’m always keen to respect the local customs. In the case of Denpasar airport, the local customs involve queuing up for an hour and waiting to hand over a wad of American dollars. Soon, we are collected from the airport by a young man called ‘Mus’ whose job it is to take us to Ubud. He has Bob Marley on the stereo and when I make a comment about this fact, he interprets it as some kind of criticism and switches to One Direction. Suddenly, my fear of flying is dwarfed by my fear of anything to do with Simon Cowell. By the time we arrive at our destination, I am a pale, quivering wreck and our hosts come out and greet us in the traditional Indonesian manner by asking, ‘Hot towel?’ stuart@stuartmccullough.com

BASIC POLITICS The Times They Are A Changing…a song maybe the Grammy Award winning solo artist Gotye with his group The Basics (Kris Schroeder and Tim Heath) could be singing?

Get ready Victoria – you will be hearing a lot more from them as they run in the upcoming state election in Victoria.

Gotye, aka Wally De Backer along with long time friends Schroeder and Heath, have formed The Basics Rock’n’Roll Party (BRRP) and have confirmed their acceptance of running on November 29.

“We want to demonstrate that it is possible to have a political party in Australia that is not Labor or Liberal. A group that is not ultimately driven by the mining or union sectors. A party that’s players are not treated like royalty with glossy leaders” said Schroeder. He went on to say “we are not politicians, we are ordinary folk without an agenda who work on the basis of honesty and integrity. We are not being paid by lobby groups for what we want to achieve. We just want people to have a voice to ask questions. Questions I am sure we would all want the answers too. Why is this happening?

Who made that decision for me?”

The trio do not want to change the political landscape as they have in the music industry, they want to prove anyone can take their place in politics – there is enough room for everyone!

The three pillars of the parties political movement are quite impressive; innovation, education, and of course Rock ‘n’ Roll. Their objectives include improving indigenous local learning in Victorian schools, compulsory first-aid training in high schools and having more access to music in rural areas.

With over 13,000 registered interest parties on the groups Facebook page, the small number of 500 registered members needed with the Victorian Electoral Commission is just a formality. One of the latest quips on the page is over 60% of the members so far are Red Heads; this did set the cat amongst the pigeons – we all know the most memorable of Red Heads that was at the helm of a major political party & our country – some may say changed the landscape for the better or worse? Don’t let this put you off. They are not Red Head bias – we have confirmed this for you!

The firm thoughts of the group are that decisions do not have to be made by the elite, well-to-do, or pure-bred politicians.

A large part of the issues that they are discussing are federally based, and this is an arena for the future of BRRP. History has shown that well know personalities perform well in the political arena. Peter Garrett would be one of those that come to mind. Possibly misguided, he did not stick to his own thoughts and agenda. In my humble opinion I think it was a bit of a compromise between his own ideals and what was convenient at the time. Looking back at the Midnight Oil the music completely contradicted his outward Labor political views, maybe a lesson that convenience is not always the best choice.

Enough political insight. The Basics Rock’n’Roll party will shake things up I’m sure. If you’re interested in keeping up with everything BRRP, check out the Facebook page in preparation for the Election on November 29th – I am sure you will be hearing a lot about it over the coming months!

ARTS&ENTERTAINMENT Introducing the new Blue Mini CafE, Eatery and Emporium THE iconic Blue Mini Café in Rosebud has been offering its fresh and delicious breakfast and lunch menu to hungry visitors for more than seven years from its great beachside location. With its friendly, personal service and relaxed retro atmosphere, the Blue Mini has grown to become a favourite of locals and tourists alike.

After more than a year in planning – and just in time for the school holidays – the Blue Mini has opened at its second location in Rosebud, bringing its clever and quirky take on informal dining to the old Rosebud bowling alley, which closed its doors in 2013.

Fully renovated throughout, the Blue Mini Café, Eatery and Emporium is a bright and spacious cafe, provedore and function venue which offers visitors to the Mornington Peninsula a unique experience.

Using recycled timbers and innovative design, the new Blue Mini has retained the retro look and feel of the bowling alley, breathing new life into the old building, while offering a relaxed, modern dining experience which captures the spirit and flavours of the Mornington Peninsula.

The Blue Mini is open seven days a week for all day breakfast and lunch with a vibrant seasonal menu that reflects the personality of the Mornington Peninsula.

The Blue Mini is more than a café and Tracey’s goal is to make every visit an experience. Walk through the café to the Eatery and Emporium and you will arrive at “The Lanes”, a spacious indoor dining

area built on the original polished lanes of the bowling alley. Here guests can enjoy a fresh coffee or tasty brunch which relaxing with friends in a bright, casual dining atmosphere. Your meal at the Blue Mini is complemented by a wide range of unique, retro kitchen and lifestyle themed giftware – again locally sourced and carefully selected to ensure you will always find something different. The Blue Mini Emporium also provides a market forum for Mornington Peninsula artists and artisans to display their creations, with opportunities to purchase local art, sculpture, crafts and flowers. The kids’ play area lets Mums enjoy some well-earned down time and grown-up company while the kids get creative and have fun.

The old site at Point Nepean Road, Rosebud is still up and running, as Tracey points out.

“We have just rebranded and revamped it a bit,” said Tracey. “We still have the same fabulous team there, great serviced and reasonably priced so you can relax and enjoy breakfast or lunch at your leisure.”

The original Blue Mini Café is now named The Corner Café and Catering, has a new look but everything else is the same.

Blue Mini Café, Eatery and Emporium is at 2 Colchester Road, Rosebud. Phone 5981 2520.

Southern Peninsula News 14 October 2014

THIS year, Mornington Peninsula Kids and MPNG in conjunction with Karingal Hub Shopping Centre are organising the annual Walk for Daniel on October 31.

The walk is part of the Day for Daniel awareness program, organised by the Daniel Morcombe Foundation, with a focus on information rather than fund raising.

Anna Brown, from Mornington Peninsula Kids, says it was a great success last year and they expect to have an even larger turnout this year.

“The walk is held at Karingal Hub so there is no concern about the weather. As this year’s Day for Daniel falls on October 31, we are combining the event with a trick or treat around the centre,” said Anna, who interviewed Bruce Morcombe last year. “After interviewing Mr Morcombe last year I was astounded at how upfront he was, the strength

and courage that he and Denise show. They don’t want it to happen to anybody else and are now devoting their time to education and prevention.”

The Walk for Daniel starts at 4pm at Karingal Hub. Bring the kids along in Halloween costume to trick or treat in safety. Enjoy free goodies with face-painting and a free drink station from McDonalds, a Batman appearance, St Kilda Football Club mascot, trick or treat lollies and a free colouring book.

The walk will start at 4.30pm, wandering around the centre twice along with the Karingal Hub Walking Club.

At the Bendigo it starts with U.

Magpiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; batting puts them in box seat PROVINCIAL

By IT Gully CRIB Point is well placed for victory after the first day of the second round in Provincial cricket.

Up against Moorooduc at Moorooduc Reserve, the Magpies batted their full complement of 80 overs and scored an impressive 9/305.

The visitors won the toss and had little hesitation in batting first.

Things didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t start well though when opener Henry Dolphin was claimed for just five, however, this brought the champ Luke Herrington to the crease with run machine and skipper Rob Hearn.

The pair took the score from 10 to 66 before Herrington was dismissed for 43 after belting seven fours.

Matty Blake contributed 29 to the scoreboard, batting at four instead of opening the innings.

When both Blake and Hearn (65)

were dismissed, this brought Brad Davidson and Ricky Thompson together.

The pair put on a clinic, smacking the pill to all parts of Moorooduc Reserve, sharing a partnership of 112.

Davidson, after hitting four fours and two sixes, was dismissed by Shane Manby for 51, before Thompson (66 including four fours and four sixes) became another Manby victim. At that stage, the Pies were in control, the score was on 275 and there were some overs still in play.

Chris Richmond, who played in the Second XI the week before, contributed a well timed 34.

Manby was the pick of the Ducsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bowlers with 4/57 from 12 overs.

Bobby Wilson and Ross Cordeaux each claimed two wickets.

Langwarrin has set Mt Eliza a competitive total in their match at Emil Madsden Reserve.

The Kangas though would be

disappointed that it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t post a higher score than 230 after getting away to such a great start.

Opening pair Simon McEvoy and Mark Cooper put on 89 for the partnership before McEvoy was the first to go for 40. Cooper, who was ordinary with the bat last season, had a big pre-season and he followed-up his good first round knock with 57.

However, other than 65 from the in-form Andy Johnson, the Kangas really didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get going, their final six batsmen not reaching double figures.

Credit to Lyle House and his Mounties, who took a stranglehold on the game in the back end of the innings and kept the Kangas to a more than gettable total.

House himself finished with 3/79 from 24 overs, however, it was Nick Baron, who played in the Second XI last week, who really did the damage.

Baron was called up with just 15 overs left in the innings and had

Hillmen set tone against â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;glamour teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Seaford DISTRICT

By IT Gully NEW kids on the MPCA District block, Red Hill, has set the scene for a cracking game against the competitionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s glamour team, Seaford.

It was a tough second round draw for the Hillmen, who elevated themselves to District ranks after winning the flag last season.

Seaford has recruited extremely well in the off season and would have fancied their chances to intimidate the newest side to the competition.

However, Red Hill stood firm against the potent Seaford attack and posted a sensational score of 9/294.

Things didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t start all that well after Seaford sent Red Hill into bat. Boom recruit Laurie Heath got his stumps rearranged by Andy McMannis when the score was on eight.

However, Andrew Mock and Rheede Hopgood were brought together at the crease and really did set the game up for the home side.

Mock played an anchor role and finished with 37, while Hopgood opened the shoulders and belted 108. The pair took the score from eight to 141 before Hopgood was dismissed by Faisal Payenda.

The Hopgood dismissal brought Simon Dart to the crease. Suffice to say things didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get any easier for Seafordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bowlers at that point.

Dart finished unbeaten on 93.

The positive for Seaford was the bowling figures of Payenda, who finished with 7/114 off 29 overs. McMannis claimed 2/80 off 18. Paul Hartle bowled just 14 overs but went for 44.

Hastings did well to keep the run machine that is Delacombe Park to 9/242.

The Blues were able to ensure that no Devils were able to get off the leash, although there could be an argument mounted that part-time batsman Ben Brittain should not have scored 62.

Brittainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knock was an important one, as it helped push the score beyond 200. At one stage, the Devils were 9/187.

Max Sherry scored 21 batting at 11 and Brittain was unbeaten on 62. There were also 30 extras bowled, including 11 no balls. Chris Brittain also contributed 44.

Tim Birch was the best of the Hastingsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bowlers, the skipper picking-up 4/50, while Luke Hewitt claimed 3/63.

It could be a case of the one that got away for the Blues, who probably allowed 50 additional runs. The batsmen now really need to step up to the plate.

Somerville is well on track to get the points against Mt Martha.

The Eagles bowled the Reds out for 127, however, lost two wickets for just 21 runs before the close of play.

Flinders has plenty of work to do against Seaford Tigers.

The Sharks batted first and managed 9/171, Tim Clark top scoring with 53 and Shane Beggs getting 25. Corey Hand was on fire for the Tigers with 5/54, while Ash Mills picked-up 2/28.

Daniel Polson scored a magnificent unbeaten 178 in Carrumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s massive 7/302 against Boneo.

Polson came to the crease when the Lions were in some bother at 3/58, however, he hung around for the rest of the innings.

John Mitchell was a solid support and scored 56 in their 133-run partnership.

Stewart Mathieson was the best of the Boneo bowlers with 3/52, while the evergreen Cameron Williams claimed 2/49 for the Pandas.

Main Ridge is well on the way to picking up the win against Baden Powell.

The Braves batted first and were bowled out for 152.

Josh Waldron top scored for the Braves with 49. However, the day belonged to the Cougarsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bowlers, Jason Albress taking 4/19 and Scott Millar 4/66.

The Cougarsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; batsmen then went to town, Michael Holmes belting an unbeaten 84 and Ed Aarons is cruising on 32. At stumps, the home side was 1/128.

an immediate impact, getting a caught and bowled immediately and finishing with 5/33 from eight overs.

The Mounties will be confident they can get the runs, while Langwarrin will be confident that they can defend 230, especially with Dwayne Doig and Adrian Mack on their side.

Sorrento will be looking for a big day on day two of their match against neighbour Rye, after already claiming first innings victory.

The Sorras bowled first and rolled the Demons for 108. AJ King was on fire with 6/28 while Anthony Blackwell picked-up 4/22. Tom Barrand top scored with 27 for Rye. In reply, the Sorras are cruising at 1/114 with former Demon Corey Harris unbeaten at the crease on 68.

Pines and Baxter will go down to the wire after 12 wickets tumbled on day one.

The Piners did the job with the ball with everyone contributing,

including Nick Wilcox, Brett Remy, Ricky Ramsdale and Pat Jackson, all claiming two wickets.

Baxter was dismissed for 142, Joe Rule following-up his ton last week with another 69.

In reply, Pines is 2/27.

Peninsula Old Boys have already picked-up the win against Heatherhill.

The Hills were rolled for 70 before the Old Boys responded with 2/105 at the close of play. No doubt an outright is on the cards for the home side.

In potentially the big upset of the round, Mornington is well and truly on the ropes against Long Island.

Playing at home, the Doggies batted first and were rolled for just 90.

In reply, the Islanders are 4/101.

Whilst the Islanders are a great side, one gets the feeling that there are some twists and turns still left in this one.

Knights could be on for major upset SUB-DISTRICT

By IT Gully BALLAM Park is a big chance to score the biggest upset in three or four seasons in their match against Balnarring in Sub District cricket.

Everything seemed to be going as normal in the match at Ballam Park, the Saints picking up wickets at will and eventually rolling the home side for 104.

It was all very normal at that point.

Mitch Kleinig did the job with the new ball for the Saints with a super impressive 4/2 from 13 overs, including 12 maidens, while Tyler Wilton was also superb with the nugget, claiming 4/27 from 10 overs.

New Knights’ skipper Ryan O’Connor contributed 28 runs with the bat, batting at nine, while Michael Casey opened with 34. Matt Moore with 10 was the only other Ballam Park batsman to score double figures.

What happened next though was the big shock.

With 24 overs left in the day, the Saints would have expected to set themselves up for a tilt at an outright win.

What they did, however, was slump to 6/51 at the close of play.

The top six Saints’ batsmen are all back in the sheds, including boom recruit David Ross, who was trapped in front off the bowling of Marc Blume for 13.

Mark Walles top scored with 20.

O’Connor picked-up 2/13, while Leigh Parslow snared 2/6.

A shock victory is on the cards for the Knights.

Rosebud has a lot of work to do against Carrum Downs.

The Buds batted first on Saturday at Olympic Park, however, were bowled out for just 127.

Brad Glenn flew the flag for the Buds with 42, however, he lacked support.

Chamara Perera was at his menacing best for the Cougars with 5/51, while Stuart Swift was also damaging with 3/18.

In reply, Rosebud has hit back, however, the visitors are still in the box seat at 3/46 after batting the last 22 overs of the day.

Skye’s bowlers will need to be at their very best when they take to the field next week against Pearcedale.

Skye batted first on Saturday and were rolled for just 145. Paul Fillipone was the only Burras batsman to have an impact, scoring 52, while Christian Samuel supported him well with 36. At one stage, the Burras were 5/34.

Chris Dew was the pick of the Dales’ bowlers with 4/37, Shayne Gillings claimed 3/29 and Kaine Smith snared 2/32.

In reply, Pearcedale needed to face the last three overs of the day and finished unscathed at 0/3.

Tootgarook has set Frankston YCW 171 for victory in their match at Peninsula Reserve.

Scott Sterling was the top scorer for the Frogs with 69.

In reply, YCW is 2/30.

Dromana appears to be in the box seat against Tyabb.

The Hoppers scored 163 before picking up four Tyabb wickets to have the visitors 4/78.

Jack Raeside and Jason Ferns were the pick of the Yabbies’ bowlers with three wickets each.

Strong start: Main Ridge should win its District match against Baden Powell. Pictures: Andrew Hurst

Sharks exodus, Rye nabs coach Moore FOOTY NEWS

By Toe Punt Sinking Sharks Bonbeach looks set to lose a heap of players after the new coach was appointed recently.

The Sharks, who lost the grand final in 2013 and finished third in 2014, look likely to lose Paul Rebeschini, Shane McDonald, Shaun Foster, Matt Clifford, Ricky and Jason Ferraro and Anthony Raso in the aftermath of the appointment.

Steve Hughes was announced as the new Sharks, replacing Stevey Capp.

Hughes spent most of his footy life at Noble Park before taking Springvale Districts to two premierships. He has been an assistant at Sandringham Dragons and has also been an AFL recruiter for Adelaide Crows and Carlton.

Josh Bull has followed in his father Chris’ footsteps, joining the coach ranks in the reserves.

Word is Foster and Clifford are a big chance at Hastings,

Rebeschini to Old Haileybury and McDonald to Chelsea.

Troy Shannon were overlooked for the job.

Massive coup for Edithvale Edithvale Aspendale has appointed Graeme Yeats as senior coach.

The highly regarded and respected Yeats is a massive coup for the club.

Yeats is a former coach at Dandenong Stringrays and still has links in VFL and AFL circles.

There is talk, however, that the likes of Brent Bowden and Michael Kremmer are in discussions with other clubs.

Demons appoint Josh Rye has appointed duel Sorrento premiership player Josh Moore as its new coach.

Moore replaces the retiring Ben Holmes.

Whilst Moore will lose the three Semmel brothers and Chris Gleeson, it is believed that he has a number of recruits in his sights, given his association with the Eastern Football League.

One of those recruits is Justin Van Unen, who set the league alight a couple of seasons ago with 100+ goals.

The Moore appointment seems to be a popular one, given there were a number of players assessing their options, including Adam Kirkwood.

However, they all seem to be settled now.

The only player still up in the air is Rhett Sutton, who is linked to Old Haileybury and Mt Eliza.

Doggies get their man Mornington has appointed favourite son Chris Holcombe to the top job.

Holcombe was an assistant to Stuart Seager this season.

Holcombe is an untried coach and will certainly have a lot of pressure on his to take the team one step further next season.

The likes of proven coaches in Steve Ryan (Pines and Rye) and

Ripper appointment: Rye has nabbed dual premiership coach Josh Moore.

Holden Trax gets turbo boost HOLDEN Trax will cement its position as one of the best small SUVs on the road with the introduction of the new top of the range 1.4 litre Turbo LTZ model.

The refined 1.4 litre turbocharged engine option is coupled with a 6-speed automatic transmission with Active Select and a variety of new premium features that complement its award winning technology and bold design.

The LTZ with the new 1.4 litre tubrocharged engine will sit above the already popular and well performing 1.8 litre engine in the expanded Trax line-up, offering customers an option that provides even greater levels of refinement and responsiveness. The new engine boasts 103kW of power and 200Nm of torque, with fuel economy of just 6.9 litres per 100 kilometres.

Trax LTZ also benefits from an array of standard premium features, including rain sensing wipers, a driver’s arm rest and new 18 inch alloy wheels. A sunroof also comes standard with the 1.4 litre iTi option, further enhancing Trax’s reputation for providing outstanding customer value.

These new additions join the long list of standard features already found across the entire Trax range including a seven-inch touch-screen with MyLink embedded apps, rear view camera and Bluetooth phone and audio streaming.

Teresa Basile, Holden’s General

Manager Marketing Communications, said Holden was committed to ensuring the fully-flexible Trax would continue to offer today’s drivers everything they are looking for in a small SUV, from multiple seating configurations to advanced technology features.

“In just 12 short months since its launch, Trax has established itself as a serious contender in this ever popular segment and we are very pleased with

the success it has achieved to date,” said Ms Basile.

“Trax has received great traction in the market as well as plenty of positive reviews and we are committed to building on that success to ensure Trax continues to evolve and respond to customer needs.

“In 2014 Trax is currently Holden’s fourth highest selling vehicle and we’re confident that with the introduction of the 1.4 turbocharged

engine and new added extras, it will continue to appeal to a broad customer base ensuring continued success.”

The affordable and fuel efficient 1.8 litre engine will remain available on Trax is matched with a 5-speed manual or optional 6-speed automatic transmission, in both the LS and LTZ trim levels.

Holden’s commitment to delivering excellent customer value extends beyond the purchase of Trax, with
