Budget’s $80m blow to port Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE future of the Port of Hastings Development Authority is in doubt following the failure of the state government to refinance its operations in last week’s budget.

Hastings MP Neale Burgess has accused the government of “siphoning off” $80 million that should have gone

to the authority’s operations.

He said the “disturbing and cynical move” was a “further betrayal” from the Labor government which had provided no new funding for the area.

“Just five months ago the Port of Hastings was building a real future for our community, already providing more than 100 jobs and preparing to provide thousands more over the coming years,” Mr Burgess said. “Now the Port of Hastings Development Author-

ity is just a shell, with the majority of the jobs gone and with Labor delivering the final blow this week by clawing back the remaining $80m of the project’s funding.

“This disgraceful decision is a major blow for jobs, businesses and the economy in the Western Port area and the south east region.”

More jobs are likely to go after next Monday’s meeting of the development authority’s board, with one insider put-

ting staffing levels down to as low as 10.

Neither the Ports Minister Luke Donnellan or the Port of Hastings Development Authority answered questions emailed by The News.

On Monday morning the authority said it had forwarded the questions to the government. Within 90 minutes it sent another email: “The Port of Hastings Development Authority has received funding in the budget to continue to manage the day-to-day opera-

tions of the port and to facilitate bulk opportunities.”

The previous Liberal-led coalition established the authority in January 2012 to plan for a new international container port.

The authority is responsible for managing existing trade at the Port of Hastings through an agreement with Patrick Ports Hastings, although the number of ships visiting the port has dropped in the past few years. Continued Page 6

Diesels no go for Stony Point line Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au DIESEL trains will not return to the Stony Point rail line as a quick fix to get passenger services back up and running.

Metro Trains had said diesels could have been a short-term solution while work continues to install axle counters along the Stony Point line to stop boom gates malfunctioning (‘Line here to stay: Metro’, The News 28/4/15).

The track was originally designed

Before the clearing AN exhibition by Simon Normand at the Merricks general store explores the Mornington Peninsula as it was before World War I. The artist presents a series of panoramic photographs of places that “show no sign of the dramatic effects of colonisation,” he says.

Beside each photograph are original painted maps and collages of the landscape. There are references to original

for diesel trains and in recent months boom gates at level crossings have failed to open in some instances when trains approach level crossings.

“We were unable to find suitable [diesel trains] rolling stock for the line, so buses will continue to replace trains until the axle installation is complete,” Metro spokeswoman Larisa Tait said.

“We are anticipating reopening the line at the end of June.”

Liberal Hastings MP Neale Burgess said he had been in contact with Metro and Public Transport Victoria “on a daily basis” to push for passenger

services to resume.

Buses are ferrying passengers to stations between Stony Point and Frankston while engineering works along the rail track are complete.

“Buses are not a substitute for our trains, they are slower and miss connecting services,” Mr Burgess said.

“However safety is the number one priority and we need absolute assurance that every level crossing gate will activate in exactly the way it is intended to.”

Both Metro and Mr Burgess have said the axle counters will be “a permanent fix” to the boom gate glitches.

Artist’s view: Simon Normand’s photographs reveal an untouched peninsula landscape. Picture: Yanni

Boonwurrung place names, bullets found in shell middens, stones, insects and glass all preserved in resin-filled boxes. “It’s a vision of the country before the clearing,” he said.

The exhibition runs until 31 May. The gallery at 3460 Frankston-Flinders Rd is open daily 9am-5pm.

The fix is in: Axle counters are being installed near level crossings along the Stony Point rail line.

Water world: Hastings medal winning swimmer Tanya Grant. Picture: Gary Sissons

Medal winner comes home with two gold

Western Port

HASTINGS’ swimmer Tanya Grant was on a medal-winning spree at the Special Olympics state titles at Bendigo last month. She won gold in the 50 metre backstroke and 100 metre freestyle, and bronze in the 100 metre backstroke.

Grant, 39, with Down syndrome, enjoys being in the water.

“She has been keen on swimming

since she was 13, and her favourite stroke is backstroke,” mum Joanne said last week. “I can still beat her at freestyle but certainly not at backstroke.”

Over the years Grant has competed as a swimmer in Melbourne, Queensland and Perth.She trains at the YMCA’s Somerville Health and Aquatic Centre under specialist dis-

abilities’ coach Steve Cooper.

Western Port Special Olympics chair Tina Naughton said the aquatic centre had a strong swimming program with many long-time enthusiasts. “Tanya has been back with us for two years and is a very good swimmer,” she said.

“She came in the other day proudly wearing her medals.”

Vandals go back to school SOMERVILLE Secondary College in Graf Rd has again been attack by vandals.

Constable Jack Henderson, of Hastings police, said a call was received at 9.15pm to report three youths “causing trouble” at the school.

The caller also reported hearing the sound of glass being smashed.

Police arrived at the scene at 9.30pm and patrolled the school, but the youths had run off.

“Police saw damage to the top light of a bobcat, and where the offenders had removed a small fire extinguisher from the bobcat and deployed its contents,” he said.

“The offenders had also used a bottle of oil to squirt a stone wall on the technology building currently under construction. The oil has damaged the stone and this damage is not repairable.

“The offenders also smashed five windows in the construction shed.”

Leading Senior Constable Carol Reid said a recently adopted zero-tolerance approach meant police would go hard on offenders.

“Vandalism of this type has been an ongoing issue in this area for several months now and we are sick of it,” she said.

“It’s mainly a group of 10 or 12 boys and girls aged early teens to early 20s. They often make a nuisance of themselves on Friday and Saturday nights, including at the nearby Somerville Rise Primary School.

Photos framed THE Bakers Art Gallery at Balnarring is calling for entries to its first photography exhibition.

Curator Michael Leeworthy has been featuring different mediums for each monthly exhibition, gauging public interest as he goes after a year at the gallery.

“I believe there are as many people on the Mornington Peninsula interested in viewing and buying quality photography as there are in paintings, with just as much critical and knowledgeable comment,” Leeworthy said.

“Although a point and shoot person myself I have a lot of respect for photography. I truly believe there is an opportunity on the peninsula for a permanent photography gallery.

“The inaugural exhibition has already attracted entries from Hugh Evans from Hugh Gallery Flinders, professional photographers such as Tanya Fry and Yanni [Mornington Peninsula News group], members of the Rosebud Camera Club, plus other enthusiasts.

“I have thrown it open to attract a wide ranging audience. Hopefully it will become a regular show and at some stage we can offer prizes.”

Photography at Bakers Art Gallery will open on 30 May and run until 24 June. Submissions can be made to Michael Leeworthy at michaellee48@bigpond.com. The Bakers Art Gallery is at 3000 Frankston-Flinders Rd, Balnarring.

Vandalism spree: A police photograph of oil sprayed against the unfinished wall at the new Somerville Secondary College on Friday night.

“These are public order offences and, as a response, we have started Operation Dragon to catch them.”

Police say the school’s many exits – Ronald Court, Bruce and Forest drives, Michael Way, Sydney, Sinclair and Henry Streets and Blacks Camp and Jones roads – made it difficult to intercept the vandals.

Anyone with information should call Hastings police on 5970 7800.

Appeal record THE Uncle Bobs Peninsula Group’s annual Good Friday wheelbarrow push, and Southern Peninsula Fire Brigades and SES door knock raised a record $86,162.

With all other donations, raffles and collections throughout the year, the peninsula group has donated $107,195 towards the Uncle Bobs Club Good Friday Appeal state total of $625,000.

The secretary of the Uncle Bobs Club Peninsula Group said the money would help the Royal Children’s Hospital “care for sick and disabled children of Victoria in the most modern and well-equipped children’s hospital in the world”.

Firefighters turn out to farewell former captain A BIG turnout – which included a guard of honour by fire crews farewelled former Somerville CFA captain Rodney Howard Armstrong on Saturday.

Flags at the station were at halfmast and the fire bell was tolled once for each of the Mr Armstrong’s years as a firefighter 54 years.

Funeral director Edward (Ted) Bull there were 240 mourners at the funeral, with many in lined up along Graf Rd as first a fire truck and then the hearse passed by.

Born 31 May 1942 at Mornington, Mr Armstrong died of kidney failure on 4 May, aged 72.

In his eulogy, Somerville CFA captain Allan Monti praised Mr Armstrong’s outstanding service, the leadership roles he had played and the recognition he had received in the form of medals and service awards.

He said Mr Armstrong was highly regarded as deputy group officer in the Western Port group of fire brigades.

Despite suffering ill health over recent years, Mr Armstrong had been a regular at the Somerville fire station, assisting with administrative tasks.

Beverley, his wife of 45 years and also a long-standing CFA member, described her husband as “a lovely bloke”.

“We had a great life together and I couldn’t have wished for a better husband,” she said. “I was amazed by the number of well-wishers on Saturday.”

The couple were married in Mornington in 1969 when Mr Armstrong was an orchardist on his parents’ farm. He later worked at the BP refinery at Crib Point for 20 years and was

one of the workers on the decommissioning crew.

He had a keen interest in steam trains and was a member of the Mornington Railway Preservation Society.

“If there was a steam train within listening distance we’d be there,” Mrs Armstrong said.

The couple had no children. “Rod blamed shift work,” Mrs Armstrong quipped. “He’d be going to bed when I was getting up.”

Mr Armstrong was cremated on Monday and – if Mrs Armstrong has her way - his ashes will be scattered around the fire station in Eramosa Rd. He also leaves two sisters, Kath and Meredith.

Port prospects sink as budget fails to provide Continued from Page 1 The authority’s website says round 100-150 vessels are recorded at the port each year, ranging in size up to 100,000 tonnes.

However, the reality is that the port has seen a decline in visits by big ships from about 200 in 20102011 to an expected 50 this year.

The authority also has “principles” which include caring for the environment and partnering with the community.

These principles could go part way to explaining why between eight and 11 of the authority’s staff, including its CEP Mike Lean (on at least one day), were available last to plant mangroves in mudflats near Lang Lang. On Monday five of the authority’s staff were helping on mudflats near Grantville.

“In a one line budget entry the Andrews government siphoned off the remaining $80m from our port,” Mr Burgess said.

“Even though they said they were going to take independent advice on where to build our state's sec-

ond container port from Infrastructure Victoria and go ahead with it within 12 months of taking government - now just six months away - in this budget they've cynically clawed back the PoHDA money and stopped the work that even the greenest groups thought was of the highest quality and vital.

“As the budget surplus is only built on the [abandoned] Commonwealth EWL [East West Link] funding, clearly the $80 million that belongs to this community has gone elsewhere; maybe even to pay not to build a badly needed road.”

Mr Burgess said the Labor government’s attitude towards the Hastings area was in stark contrast towards the “hundreds of millions of dollars were poured into badly needed upgrades to local infrastructure and services”.

This spending had included $110m for port development; $16.3m for a new Somerville police station; $4m for a Somerville technical college; $900,000 for the Hastings jetty; and $81m for Frankston Hospital.

Radio breaks blamed for near miss Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A BREAKDOWN in radio communications has been blamed for a near headon collision in January by two planes taking off from Tyabb airfield.

Each plane had to veer away just after taking off from opposite ends of the same runway.

Investigators have found that neither pilot heard that the other was about to use the runway and the club says it remains a mystery why their respective radio broadcasts were not received.

However, a bystander hearing both broadcasts on a hand-held radio quickly sounded the alarm, but that too was not heard by either pilot.

A student pilot in one of the planes broadcasting “rolling runway 35” at the same time - “may have over-transmitted the call”, Australian Transport Safety Bureau investigators have found.

While the pilots elected to veer left to avoid collision, regulations state they should turn right.

Peninsula Aero Club vice-president Jack Vevers said radio problems were “the root cause” of the incident. These are being investigated. He confirmed the pilots’ evasive action was reasonable in the circumstances and “worked out well”.

The near disaster occurred about 2pm on 2 January when the pilot of a Starduster SA300 aircraft began pre-flight preparations for a local private flight.

Unknown to him, a Cessna 152 was moving towards the other end of the same runway (No. 17) - and would soon be pointing straight at him.

An safety bureau investigation – concluded on 22 April – found the Starduster pilot had followed airfield procedures on the calm day and used runway 17, which he confirmed on the usual common traffic advisory radio frequency. At about the same time, an instructor and student pilot in the Cessna radioed that they were about to use runway 35 – the other end of the same runway - but the pilot of the Starduster did not hear that broadcast, nor see the Cessna at the time.

Taxiing to runway 35, the student pilot broadcast he was lining up and getting ready to go. The pilot of the Starduster did not hear him and was by then at runway 17 where he broadcast that he was lining up and about to depart. The pilots of the Cessna did not hear him, either.

As the Cessna lifted off, the instructor saw the Starduster on its take-off run straight ahead and, taking control, began a left banking turn while keeping the other plane in sight. Approaching, three metres off the ground, the Starduster pilot saw the Cessna and – taking his cue - also banked to his left. The two aircraft passed about 50 metres apart with the Starduster slightly higher. It then joined the circuit for runway 35 on the crosswind leg, and broadcast that it was returning to land at Tyabb.

Mr Vevers said an “out clause” in the regulations meant the instructor in the Cessna had “done the right thing” in turning left first up. “This allowed him to maintain visual contact with the other plane as well as avoid flying over built-up areas,” he said. “That decision worked out well and he had a good reason for making it.

“Different situations allow for different actions. I would have done the same thing myself.”

The aero club self-reports to the ATSB any serious safety incidents as a way of retaining the investigative services of a high-level team of experts and to educate its pilots.

“It is important that we work out why this incident happened and implement improvements straight away,” Mr Vevers said. “We have found that we are getting radio interference at either ends of the runway and we have not been able to identify why.

“We investigated perceived problems with line-of-site but that is not the problem. Something else is interfering with our radios and we are unsure what it is but we are working on it.

“That’s why we went to ATSB – the on-ground radio broadcast was only heard by the Cessna. Something was blocking it from the other aircraft.”

Mr Vevers said new procedures initiated as a result of the incident, such as pulling holding points back to before pilots enter the runway, would open up their line-of-site in future. The club will review installation of an Aerodrome Frequency Response Unit to assist in selecting the correct VHF frequency, as well as a means of recording the Common Traffic Air Frequency. It will also review its Emergency Management Plan.

The airport’s En Route Supplement Australia entry (the aviation “bible” relating to runway use) will be amended as the documented runway layout “may have been misleading”.

Both the pilot of the Starduster and

the instructor of the Cessna are aware of the local instruction for the preferred runway in nil or cross wind conditions, the ATSB found.

“The risk of reduced separation events can be minimised through good communication by pilots. Most importantly, a good visual lookout should be maintained at all times,” it said.

Despite both pilots banking left in this incident, one in response to the other, Civil Aviation Regulations 1988 – Regulation 162 ‘Rules for Prevention of a Collision’ – state: “When two aircraft are approaching head-on … and there is a danger of collision, each shall alter its heading to the right.”

However, the ATSB said that, in this case, the pilot of the first aircraft elected to turn left “to keep the other aircraft in sight and clear of his aircraft and successfully avoided the potential for collision. The other pilot responded equally and turned left when he saw the opposing aircraft turning left”.

The spokesman reiterated that the ATSB “investigates to improve safety, not to apportion blame or determine liability (or fault)”. It is responsible for investigating incidents and other transport safety matters involving civil aviation, marine and rail operations in Australia that fall within Commonwealth jurisdiction, as well as participating in overseas investigations involving Australian registered aircraft and ships.

The object of a safety investigation is to identify and reduce safety-related risk. ATSB investigations determine and communicate the safety factors relating to the transport safety matter being investigated.

Charlene is as good as Charlotte ROYAL events register high on the Richter Scale at Emu Ruo, and the birth of Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, latest offspring of future King Wills and Queen Kate, reverberates still.

The bunting is up at the fence, the Union flag is aloft at the gate and the congratulatory telegram has been sent.

“Of course I put your name on the telegram!” booms the Blushing Bride.

“You’re still a royalist, I trust.” She looks keenly at the cowering spouse and glowers. The cower-glower is a regular Emu interaction.

Emu has had great difficulty not keeping up with the royal news. Since Princess Mary of Hobart and Denmark and her spouse, the placid heir to the Danish crown, ceased breeding, all eyes have been on the big house at the top of the Mall, SW1A, and the procreative activities of the Queen’s grandson.

Every word of rumour, speculation, outright fabrication and informed source that has appeared in the London red tops (as the cheap British gutter press are known) has been ingested and digested since 29 April 2011, when the couple wed in Westminster Abbey. Mrs Emu has chafed at the time they took to reproduce.

Now we have a sister to George Alexander Louis, the firstborn and fourth in line to the throne. George was born on 22 July 2013. Charlotte Elizabeth Diana arrived on 2 May last, sending Mrs Emu positively soppy – with just one quibble.

“They could have added Sydney to the bub’s names, to acknowledge Australia,” she said as she added the details on to her Royal family tree on

the back of the kitchen door. “Wills did say he regarded us as a beacon of hope when they were here. And little George did adore bilbies, his Dad said, because it was easier to say than koala. Besides, lots of royals get four forenames, and more.”

Emu wisely keeps to himself his view on royal names. He rather likes the name Charlene, but might have argued for something to reflect the Queen of Australia’s German heritage – possibly a moniker containing an umlaut. Mathilda (mighty battle maiden) would have served the dual purpose, close to Matilda of waltzing fame. Gunnel has a maritime ring, reflecting a favourite Royal hobby.

The Queen’s grandfather George V changed the family name to Windsor, almost too late, from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha in July 1917 because of high anti-German feeling in the British Empire as the loyal empire helped Britain smite the Hun, led by George's cousin, Kaiser Willie.

Some are tipping Windsor to be modified to incorporate Mountbatten when Charles becomes monarch. This would honour Lord Louis “Dicky” Mountbatten, to whom Prince Charles was close before the IRA assassinated his Uncle Dicky. Tricky Dicky to some. “Dicky”, a starchy old general once told him after listening to an

outrageous Mountbatten mistruth, “you could swallow a nail and pass a corkscrew!”

Charles might encounter resistance to such a scheme, but the groundwork has been done: his brother Edward has Louis as his fourth forename and Edward's children both carry the surname Mountbatten-Windsor. And, of course, young heir George is Louis as well.

Emu’s reverie is shattered by the ever-loving spouse, face close to his, demanding to know what thought has put a silly grin on his beak. “I’m happy with the name Charlotte, though,” she says, absolving Emu of the need to dissemble about the grin.

“It’s number two on the list of popular girls’ names in Australia. Elizabeth comes in at 49. Diana is not even in the top 100.”

Emu would not dare say it at Emu Ruo, but he is a fervent closet republican.

There’s nothing wrong with Britain, great or otherwise, choosing to have a hereditary head of state – all that pomp is good for tourism – but modern societies operate best with a meritocracy in charge. But we cop it, too.

How would we be if Prince Charles, dull but dedicated, were a replica of Thailand’s heir to the throne, thrice divorced Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn, now wed to an unknown fourth spouse and with a reputation as a louche layabout scandal-prone playboy: his most recently discarded wife was a bar girl.

Wood Turning Magic 2015 WOOD Turning Magic 2015 is a competition & exhibition of wood turning of the Peninsula Woodturners Guild; the magic of course is the talent of these turners in producing something wonderful from an uninteresting looking piece of wood.

The Guild can be found at the McClelland Gallery Sculpture Park and at present the membership is just over two hundred members.

They have a very modern and up to date workshop, thirteen wood lathes, a couple of bandsaws, a drill press and a tool sharpening machine.

The turners provide their own woodturning chisels and sundry small tools, some of which they have modified out of other tools that they have made to suit their work.

Classes are held twelve times a week both day and evening, so even if you are still working, there is a class you could attend. The classes have both men and women turners and some of the ladies have proven their talents by winning national awards for their work.

There are several different types of woodturning, there is what you might call the more common items you expect of turned timber such as bowls and platters and pens and useful items, another type is segmented turning, where small pieces are cut to strict precision measurements, glued together and then turned on the lathe into items of both beauty and skill. Another form of turning is ornamental turning; the name alone gives one the idea of what it is all about but one is truly amazed at the intricacies that these turners produce. The segmented and the ornamental turners each have their own group sessions, Segmented meet together for discussions on the 2nd Monday monthly and the ornamental turners meet on the 1st Friday monthly. At these group discussions they talk about what they have been working on and any problems they be encountering.

Besides the turning workshop, the Guild also has a studio where each Wednesday afternoon they hold a meeting from 1.00pm to 3.00pm. On

a Wednesday morning there is a computer group meeting and in this group members can bring queries or new programs for discussion and problem solving.

The Guild is also very lucky in the type of membership it attracts. Some members are highly trained in various fields, one being audio work. Each Wednesday afternoon meeting there is a demonstration of turning, show and tell of work being completed and this work is examined for comment. Because of the audio technology and machinery available each meeting and demonstration is able to be recorded to disc and put in the Library for borrowing by the members.

Like all clubs, associations operating money is always at a premium. There is always a charity section everywhere the Guild attend, they are an authorised fund raiser for “Kids With Cancer” Like every workshop it must be kept up to date and so at present the Guild is trying to raise money to improve their dust extractor system so they would like to see many, many visitors to Wood Turning Magic 2015 to help raise as much money as they can, but you will be impressed by the display that you will see. Some items will be for sale so make your Christmas lists early and go shopping.

Christians arrested in MP’s office Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au POLICE arrested the leaders of a Christian group who staged a sit-in protest last Wednesday at the Hastings electorate office of Flinders Liberal MP Greg Hunt.

A Christian coalition of Uniting Church, Baptist Church, Church of Christ and Peninsula City Church members grouped under the Love Makes A Way banner turned up unannounced at Mr Hunt’s electorate office at 11am last Wednesday (6 May) to protest against the federal government’s asylum seekers policies.

Love Makes A Way describes itself as “a movement of Christians seeking an end to Australia’s inhumane asylum seeker policies through prayer and nonviolent love in action”.

Group members were detained in May last year after staging a sit-in prayer meeting and vigil at Prime Minister Tony Abbott’s office in Sydney.

A similar protest by a group of Christian priests and nuns was held at Labor opposition leader Bill Shorten’s office at the same time as the sit-in at Mr Abbott’s electorate office.

Staff at Mr Hunt’s office called police at about midday last Wednesday after protesters refused to leave until Mr Hunt backed a call for the Abbott government “to release all children” from the Nauru and Manus Island detention centres.

Shortly before seven Christian leaders who had refused to leave the Hastings premises were arrested at 5.40pm later in the day, the Federal Environment Minister released a statement criticising the protesters.

Mr Hunt questioned why Love Makes A Way members did not mention people smuggling in Europe when

speaking to him about children detained at Nauru and Manus Island detention centres.

“I am surprised they didn’t make an appointment with me and chose to arrive on a day I wasn’t in the office,” he said in the statement.

“I am also surprised they have not raised the recent issue of deaths at sea in Europe caused by people smuggling.”

Immigration Department figures show there are 227 children held in offshore detention centres.

“The Love Makes a Way protest group is welcome to make a formal appointment to meet with me at any time,” Mr Hunt said.

“I respect their views and their right to a peaceful protest. I have spoken with them about their concerns over the phone.”

About 20 Love Makes A Way members had also maintained a vigil outside the Hastings office while the sit-in took place.

Mr Hunt stood by the Abbott govern-

ment’s treatment of asylum seekers.

“Under the previous government, we saw the fastest increase of people in detention. Since the Coalition came into government we have seen the fastest decline of people in detention and we are working to reduce that to zero.

“Today I have spoken to the Prime Minister’s senior adviser on national security issues and have relayed the Love Makes A Way group’s request for a moratorium on any further transfers of asylum seekers to Nauru or Manus Island and the immediate release of all children into the community on the mainland.

“I have also spoken to Immigration Minister Peter Dutton, who again reiterated that we have seen a 90 per cent decrease in people in detention since the Coalition came into government. He said he will not rest until all children are released from detention.”

Mr Hunt echoed Mr Dutton’s view in his statement.

“As a cabinet minister, I have com-

mitted that the government will reduce the number of children in detention and will not stop until there are no children in detention,” Mr Hunt said.

Uniting Church Reverend Cameron McAdam told The News Mr Hunt had made some “positive” comments but had not supported the Love Makes A Way group’s call to immediately end the detention of children at Nauru and Manus Island.

“He definitely has a heart for resolving this issue … we’re keen to see a moratorium on any further children being moved to Manus or Nauru but he couldn’t do that. The Reverend said he appreciated Mr Hunt’s efforts to speak to Immigration Minister Peter Dutton on the group’s behalf.

He praised police officers’ handling of the situation both before and after the arrests.

Those arrested were not detained by police and were charged with trespass offences. “[An officer] made the comment

that we were probably the friendliest protesters that he had ever dealt with,” Mr McAdam said.

The Reverend was less impressed with Mr Hunt’s comment about the group not mentioning deaths at sea in Europe.

“We would be deeply concerned about people drowning at sea, whether that’s in Australia or Italy, and as a world community we’ve got to find a way for people to move between countries, especially those that are under threat.

“We note the Italian government is rescuing rather than driving [boats] back so I refute that we don’t have any concern about that at all – that’s just rubbish.”

A spokeswoman for Mr Hunt said the minister mentioned the deaths at sea in Europe because “he feels very strongly about the deaths that occurred at sea here and the result of not detaining people here will entice people smugglers to bring boats to Australia … he would rather have no lives lost at sea.”

Senior Sergeant Steve McRae said police “did everything we did to prevent them being arrested and advised them several times in relation to consequences of standing in the foyer.”

“We waited it out until about 5.30pm at night and gave them an ultimatum.

The officer manager then revoked their licence to be there,” Sen Sgt McRae said.

“Apart from the fact they actually didn’t move when we asked them to they were very cooperative. Nobody was injured during the protest.”

He said the protesters “were prepared to be arrested for the cause”.

Seven police officers were on site to deal with the situation.

The protesters – six men and one women – could appear in court at a date yet to be fixed.

Man in the middle navigates between friends ‘on both sides’ WHEN Christian protesters and staff at Greg Hunt’s electorate office in Hastings faced off last Wednesday one man had a foot in both opposing camps.

Chairman of the Liberal Party’s Flinders electorate Peter Rawlings is a members and former treasurer of the New Peninsula Baptist Church. He told The News he knew several of those involved in last Wednesday’s “gathering”, as he put it.

“I had friends on one side of the fence as it were, and friends on Greg’s staff on the other side.”

Mr Rawlings authored the National Schools Chaplaincy Program for the Howard govern-

Did you know... you can view our papers online

ment in 2006 and is chair of the Mornington Peninsula chaplaincy program, liaising with council and schools.

“I wear quite a few hats,” he said.

When he heard Love Makes A Way members had turned up at Mr Hunt’s office, Mr Rawlings tried to act as a peacemaker between both parties.

“It was a very tricky situation … they have every right to protest and no-one defies the right of an individual to protest as long as it’s peaceful and reasonable.

“But at 5pm, the electorate staff had every right to lock up and leave that building.”

Mr Rawlings praised police for their handling of the situation, having last year seen

may have blackened marks against their name and it would be a tragedy.”

He offered to help in any way possible “without perverting the course of justice”.

“I hope they might get a slap over the wrist.”

Mr Rawlings said the Abbott government had inherited the children in detention problem from the previous Labor government and “there’s not one member of the cabinet in Australia’s federal cabinet that wants to see one child in detention”.

“I think constructive dialogue and suggestions are the way forward. We shouldn’t be politicising this issue of children in detention offshore.”

Christian protesters “dragged kicking and screaming by the police” at a similar protest at federal Liberal MP Josh Frydenberg’s electorate office in Kooyong.

But he criticised “older” members of Love Makes A Way who, he said, should have shown “leadership” to the younger members in their late teens and early 20s when police asked protesters to leave at 5pm.

Mr Rawlings hoped any subsequent convictions in court would not harm the career of those charged with trespass offences.

ACE volunteers still there after decade VOLUNTEERS at Peninsula Health’s Assistance and Care in Emergency program (ACE) are celebrating a decade of providing support to patients and families during what is always a difficult time – a trip to the emergency department.

A volunteers’ appreciation lunch was held last week as a part of National Volunteers Week.

About 750 volunteers assist at Peninsula Health - with 100 in the ACE program.

“Volunteers come from different walks of life but they all share the common goal of wanting to help others,” Peninsula Health volunteer program manager Helen Wilson said.

“It can be really amazing because you get all sorts of people, young and old, working together and developing strong friendships.”

Nursing student Meg Ridley, 20, had no idea about the ACE program until she walked into Frankston Hospital’s emergency department and asked a nurse how she could help. “It’s been even more rewarding than I expected,” she said.

“I’m younger than most of the other volunteers but the ladies at Frankston are so much fun. We often go out for lunch together.

“Supporting people in serious cases can be really hard, but half the time it’s as simple as just being there for them. Lots of parents appreciate our help too; they can have a quick toilet break or move the car while we play with the kids.

“As a nursing student who’s worked in Emergency before, I know how busy emergency staff are. I know they would love to provide that extra support but it’s just not possible, that’s why ACE is so important.”

Retiree Dilys Yap has been an ACE volunteer at Rosebud Hospital’s emergency department since the program launched. “I saw an ad in the paper for volunteers and thought I’d give it a go,” he said. “When I first came on I wondered what on earth I would do.

“On one of my first shifts I went over to a couple who seemed very distressed and, after a brief chat, found out the husband was worried

Free green waste MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire will hold a free green waste disposal weekend at its resource recovery centres 30-31 May to encourage residents to reduce green waste around their homes.

because he’d left the heater on at home. I promised to stay with his sick wife while he went to turn it off.

“We had a long, calm chat and when the nurse came to check her blood pressure it had gone from

very high to normal. I knew then that what I was doing was important.

“People sometimes say we should be getting paid but I don’t think they get it, our work is its own reward.”

Shire flies the flag for all THE rainbow flag will be raised at Mornington Peninsula Shire’s three offices on Friday 15 May to recognise Sunday’s IDAHOT Day. The International Day Against Homophobia & Transphobia started in 2004 to draw the attention of policymakers, opinion leaders, social movements, the public and the media to the violence

and discrimination experienced by lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and/or intersex people internationally.

May was chosen for raising the flag across the world to commemorate the World Health Organisation’s 1990 decision to declassify homosexuality as a mental disorder.

A MUSIC summit hosted by Brian Nankervis, of TV’s RocKwiz fame, will be held from 5pm-late, Wednesday 3 June, at Merchant Lane, 58 Main St, Mornington.

It is being put on by Mornington Peninsula Music Network in conjunction with Mornington Peninsula Shire and Music Victoria.

The event includes a panel discussion and Q&A from 6pm. Participants will be Music Victoria boss Patrick Donovan, APRA/ AMCOS policy director Live Music Office, Sydney, John Wardle, local producer Ian Pav, and local musician Marty Nelson Williams. The music line-up will feature Voice of Frankston winner Fox de Roche, Jude Perl and The Pete Kaighin Trio, who will also kick off the Winter Jazz Festival.

Western Port News 12 May 2015

The art of making a living IRISH singer Van Morrison has written about people thinking it “rather quaint” that “the great Rembrandt … didn't have enough money for his brushes” (The Great Deception). True or false, it’s often a struggle for artists to make a living from their skills.

Luckily for Morrison, his musicianship is appreciated by millions of fans willing to buy his albums or attend his concerts.

But that level of fame, and income, comes to just a small proportion of talented performing and visual artists.

A seminar being held in Frankston this weekend aims to help artists make a living from their art.

Billed as Secrets of Success, the seminar being held by Auspicious Arts Incubator teaches artists how to “succeed in the competitive business landscape”.

“The world is in desperate need of artists. It kills me that artists are throwing in the towel just because they don't have the business and marketing skills to succeed,” the arts incubator founder and CEO John Paul Fischbach said.

“Almost half of the Australian population is creatively engaged in some form of artistic creation, but only a tiny fraction possess the skills

and experience to transform their passion into a successful career.

“Years of artistic effort can go unnoticed, but one day's attention to the business end of things can transform all of that.”

The arts incubator was founded in 2007 after investigation by Arts Victoria, City of Melbourne and the Australia Council for the Arts revealed the need for more support in the small independent performing arts sector. Frankston Council is supporting the seminar.

Mr Fischbach, a theatre and film director and producer, said the seminar “takes participants through a comprehensive evaluation of their own work as entrepreneurs, offering real tools to manage their finances, time and mental attitudes towards creativity as a rewarding and lucrative asset”.

“What's common knowledge in other industries can be alien to artists, who frequently don't have access to the knowledge and resources required to develop long-term strategies.”

The Secrets of Success seminar is at Cube 37, 37 Davey St, Frankston, 9.30am–5pm Saturday 16 May and two-hour sessions Sunday 17 May. Tickets at artsbusinesssuccess.com or call 9784 1896.

Dolphin deaths lead to tighter rules for fishing

Beside the bay: The annual Walk for Western Port help raise money for the Dolphin Research Institute and awareness of threats to the environment. Picture: Justin Betts, Whitelight Photography

Bay ‘wonders’ open up on dolphin walk ABOUT 250 people and many of their pets walked around the foreshore near Hastings for this year’s Dolphin Research Institute’s Walk for Western Port.

“We started the Walk for Western Port five years ago to open people’s eyes to the wonders of our bay,” the institute’s executive director Jeff Weir said.

“The event is a key part of the Institute’s i sea, i care ambassador program and this year 24 schools were at the walk, from the municipalities of Frankston, Kingston and Mornington Peninsula.

“This means that the experiences of the children on the day and the Western Port messages will be shared with

close to 15,000 people in their school communities.”

The event is supported by Melbourne Water, which is responsible for managing the 2232 kilometres of rivers and creeks that flow into Western Port.

Melbourne Water’s waterways manage (South-East region), Greg Bain, said that the bay’s environment was one of international significance and the event was a “great way” to learn more about the area and raise awareness of the many species that live there.

Mr Weir credited Melbourne Water’s Western Port Science Review with “opening up many of Western Port's secrets”.

“A key finding of the study is that the mudflats support more than one per cent of the world's population of six species of birds,” he said.

“They feed on a rich diversity of shrimps, worms and molluscs that live in the mud. To put this in perspective, one per cent of humans would mean over 60 million of us living in Western Port.”

Mr Weir said sediment was “one of the problems” facing the bay because “of our actions in the catchment”.

“Western Port's wetlands and mudflats act as giant kidneys to purify land-based run-off, stopping the bay from turning green like an aquarium with a clogged filter,” he said.

NEW restrictions have been imposed on the fishing industry following the deaths of eight dolphins and four fur seals during two offshore trips by the factory trawler, Geelong Star.

The Australian Fisheries Management Authority (AFMA) says trawlers in the small pelagic fishery must now only fish during daylight while the Geelong Star has to prove if has taken “all reasonable steps … to minimise further marine mammal mortalities”.

Boats operating within a defined management zone would face a sixmonth ban on fishing if a dolphin died as a result of their operations.

The tightening of fishing rules is seen as a “significant win for marine mammals in Australian waters”, by Jeff Weir, executive director of the Hastings-based Dolphin Research Institute.

“Our goal should be to eliminate marine mammal deaths as bycatch, most critically because we don’t know enough about the vulnerability of dolphin communities around our coast, so much more research is required,” he said.

He said marine mammal deaths as bycatch in Australian waters is “bigger than the operation of the Geelong Star” and the DRI “welcomes the breadth of AFMA's announcement to include all small pelagic fisheries in Australian waters”.

“Eight dolphin deaths in two trips are unacceptable,” the AFMA’s CEO Dr James Findlay said.

“We have said all along that the vessel management plan was a live document and we would be adaptive and responsive to ensure that all reasonable measures are in place to minimise harm to marine mammals.”

Mr Findlay said the Geelong Star must be fitted with tamper proof cameras to monitor its fishing activity before setting sail for its third voyage.

“In addition to e-monitoring, two AFMA officers will remain on board to closely observe the vessel’s operations,” he said.

While encouraging the vessles operato, Seafish Tasmania, to work with marine mammal experts to ensure it stays “within the restrictive fishing conditions”, Mr Findlay said “all fishing poses risks that can sometimes lead to the unintentional harm to marine mammals”.

Mr Weir said the AFMA's night fishing ban and threat to close the entire fishery if any dolphins die in future operations “is a strong evidence-based response”.

“Some important research in this area has been funded by the federal government and these recent deaths confirm that this funding should be ongoing,” Mr Weir said.

“Where there are gaps in our knowledge we need to undertake more research and use the precautionary principle to ensure the long-term protection of marine mammals in Australian waters.”

Dogs put the bite on Saints HMAS Cerberus Dogs footy team hosted its second annual Pink Sports Day against a St Kilda City third division team on Saturday to raise funds for breast cancer research. Raffles, tin shakes and sales helped the club raise $400.

A ceremony to name the oval the McAuliffe Oval, after recently retired Lieutenant Commander Murray McAuliffe, was held before the game. The McAuliffe family have been key supporters of the Cerberus Football Club for 39 years.

Despite threatening skies, chilly winds and injuries forcing two players off-field, both teams showed spirit with the Dogs easily winning 125 points to St Kilda’s 13.

Best-on-Ground was James Falkenburg, of the Dogs, with Samuel Hornby of the Dogs and Elijha Salesui, of St Kilda City, named Most Sportsman-Like.

HMAS Cerberus has named 2015 ‘The Year of Community and Family’. “Supporting the good work of Breast Cancer Network Australia strikes a chord with many of the players and supporters who have known a friend or family member struggling with breast cancer,” Cerberus spokesperson Katherine Mulheron said.

Shoulder to shoulder: Cerberus captain Torben Louwen-Skovdam and St Kilda’s Elijha Salesui make a contest of it.

RED Hill and Main Ridge residents are about to receive a request to donate towards a community structure that has already been built.

The war memorial at the corner of Point Leo and Shoreham roads was completed in time for this year’s Anzac Day ceremony, the first to be held there for 30 years.

However, the cost of the memorial – five steel columns with bronze plaques – from a $6000 grant from the federal government and loans from private citizens.

Red Hill Community Association hopes it will be able to repay the loans with donations from the public.

The association hopes to raise $55,000 from the mail out.

Donors names will be added to a separate plaque on the memorial.

They will also be ranked according to the amount of money donated: silver, $100-$499; gold, $500-$999; and platinum, $1000 and above.

For more information call Felicity Jackson on 0438 425 815.

Gallipoli trip ‘honour’ for Anzac’s nephew Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au DROMANA Secondary College student Kobi Watson had “the most amazing time” at the Gallipoli centenary commemorations in Turkey last month.

The Year 9 student was the only Mornington Peninsula student among 80 from Victoria chosen to attend the Dawn Service at Anzac Cove.

This followed his keynote speech at the Hastings sub-branch’s memorial service at the cenotaph on Remembrance Day in November.

Flying to Turkey on the nine-day tour, Kobi and the group visited the Topkapi Palace museum, Blue Mosque, cruised the Bosphorus river and toured the underground Yerebatan Cistern. “We saw all the sites as planned,” he said. “We went to the Helles Memorial and even had time to explore some of the trenches.”

The Dawn Service was the highlight of the trip.

Kobi – who lives at Balnarring - has a personal link to the conflict. His grandfather Horace Clyde Martyr, 8th battalion, AIF, was the first decorated soldier at the landings and was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal for gallantry at Anzac Cove, where he was also wounded.

“I feel honoured at being given this opportunity to keep the ANZAC Spirit alive, and to also share and educate

my generation about the camaraderie and horrific sacrifices made by our men and women through the Gallipoli campaign,” he said last week.

“Since coming back I have had time to reflect on my experiences. The first few hours sitting on the plane and getting to know the other 80 students was fun, however, remembering all their names was a problem! We spent the first few days around Istanbul on a guided tour of the all the amazing sights. During this time I carried around with me a sense of dignity and never lost sight of the real reason why I was there.

“For me, this was more than a school excursion as I have the Anzac connection in my blood. I felt saddened at the horrific sacrifices and extraordinary challenges not only my grandfather faced, but the Aussies, English, Turkish, New Zealanders, French and Canadians, when they landed on these beaches.

“It is hard to imagine that a beautiful and tranquil landscape was the scene of such a long, brutal and barbaric battle.

“During the Dawn Service our group stood a fair way back behind a sea of people. But, in reality, those in front represented every life tragically lost at Gallipoli.

“There was a sense of sadness, however, as many students didn't fully understand the monstrosity of what had taken place in this war.”

Gallipoli tribute: Kobi Watson displays his grandfather’s medals.

Picture: Yanni

Kobi said that, being 15, “it could have been me 100 years ago”.

“These young boys signed up for an adventure and took the opportunity to see the world - much the same reason as I applied for this trip. They were faced with the harsh reality of war...

‘To kill or be killed’, to live in appalling conditions and endure extreme terror, fatigue, starvation and illness.

I am just grateful that I wasn't one of those young boys.

“I feel privileged to have taken part in what will, undoubtedly, be one of

the biggest memorial events of the 21st century. It was a wonderful opportunity to represent my grandfather, and all the other Anzacs that landed on that beach, and to fully understand and appreciate the horrific sacrifices they made for me.”

The beat goes on: John Wells has defied the odds to survive throat cancer and is back on the road starring in tribute shows to Roy Orbison and The Eagles.

Pic: Gary Sissons

The shows must go on THE Big O has survived the Big C. Entertainerat-large John Wells, who regularly performs at venues around the peninsula as Roy Orbison in a tribute show, was stopped in his tracks by a throat cancer diagnosis four years ago.

The singer, guitarist and drummer said when he was told he was not expected to live more than three months when diagnosed with stage 4 throat cancer.

“I was told I’d never sing again … and I’ve kind of beaten the odds a bit.”

After spending about a year recuperating after surgery, radiotherapy and chemo Wells decided to get back on the road part-time and team up again with his Drawcard Entertainment cofounder Norbert Graetzer.

Wells, a non-smoker, thinks passive smoking from the years playing pubs and clubs may be to blame for his throat cancer and is glad smoking in enclosed venues is now banned.

“We didn’t know any different back then,” he said.

Wells said the first troubling sign something

was amiss came when a sore throat was followed about four months later by a lump forming on his neck.

“They took the cancer out … it was right on my vocal chords.”

The 50-year-old Chelsea resident praised staff at The Alfred for their “amazing” work.

In recent months Wells has been in and out of hospital due to a recurring Golden Staph infection.

“I’ve lost the use of one of my hands but I’m one of the lucky ones,” he said.

Wells is focused on extending his three decades and counting career in the entertainment business.

“Everything that Drawcard does raises money for somebody. We’re all about helping others.

It’s pretty rewarding.”

John Wells will perform at The Australian Eagles and Little River Band Tribute Show at Longbeach RSL, Chelsea on Friday 15 May. See drawcardentertainment.com.au for details.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Peninsula football association open Compiled by Melissa Walsh

THE friends of Cr T. Ritchie will be pleased to learn that he is able to be about again after his recent illness. *** THE Secretary of The Frankston Football Club begs to acknowledge 10s 6d from Mr Gregory, as a donation towards the Club. *** MR R. T. Picking and family, who have resided in Frankston for some years, have removed to Glen Huntly during the winter months. The absence of the young ladies will be much felt, particularly in social and church work. *** MR W. S Price, dentist, of Bourke street, notifies that he will visit Frankston tomorrow (Sunday), and will be in attendance at Garrood’s Prince of Wales Hotel to receive patients. (Not St Pancras Hospital, as formerly). *** THE Sydney Music Publishing Co have secured the copyright to the popular song “She who gives her son” sung with immense success throughout Australia by Tilly Dunbar of the Fuller Vaudeville Circuit, the words being by Stephen Raffo and the music

by W. Bass Hodge. Copies of the song may be obtained at Frankston, from Mrs Hays fancy goods emporium for 1s 6d per copy.

*** A MEETING of the contributors to the Frankston Patriotic Fund and of the Presentation Fund Committee will be held at the Mechanics’ Institute, Frankston, on Wednesday next at 8 p.m. The principal business will be financial. The hon treasurer informs us that he has a very substantial sum in hand and it is hoped that there will be a good muster at the meeting to discuss the financial statement and the disposal of the funds in hand. *** EMPIRE Day will be celebrated at the Frankston State School on Monday, 24th May, by the children having games etc at the school, during the afternoon, and to the evening a picture show will be given in the Mechanics’ Hall, to which the school children will be admitted on payment of 1d, and adults 6d, any surplus, after expenses are paid being given to the Belgian Fund. The picture show will commence at 7.30 p.m. *** WE call the attention of our readers to an advertisement in another column of the formation of a Fish Club at Hastings. The club affords a privilege hitherto unattained viz, the supply of fresh fish to the members at cost price plus the cost of distribution.

The committee cannot undertake to send fish but the fish can be obtained at certain hours at Hastings after proper notice.

Full particulars can be obtained on

application to Mr A. T Denham Hastings. *** AT the Mechanics’ Institute Frankston next Monday 17th May, the master magician “Linco” will present a unique up-to-date and spectacular entertainment consisting of the latest illusions and feats of slight of hand.

In these advanced days when enter- tainments have been brought to such a “fine art”’ it is refreshing to find a performer like “Linco” who is really original to see him holding his audience one moment rocking with laughter and the next spellbound with amazement at the dexterity with which he performs one difficult feat after another undoubtedly merits him the title of the master magician.

The entertainment will also be supported by a specially selected programme of up-to-date pictures commencing at 8 p.m. sharp. *** THE latest letters from Egypt received by relatives and friends of our local soldiers reached here the beginning of this week.

One written by Driver A. G. Young was dated April 10th 1915. The troops were then at the Rest camp, a few miles out of Alexandria and they were on the move to the Dardenelles, where we have learned since, they have done such splendid work and where Australia is now living with her sons.

‘We are glad to get a move on’ the writer continues, ‘I am sure the actual

fighting will be preferable to this waiting, although this camp is much better than Mena, which we left in a blinding sand storm’.

It was not long after this letter was written that the first casualty list was published, and each additional list is scanned eagerly for familiar names.

Many and genuine were the expressions of regret when the name of Mr Olley, nephew of Mrs Sherlock, of this town, was found among the list of those who were killed when the first fighting took place.

Quite a gloom was cast over Frankston on Monday, when word was received that Private R..H .Dawborn was wounded, and much sympathy is expressed for his relatives who are at present living in Melbourne after spending years in Frankston, where they are well known.

News of Ray is anxiously waited for.

Corporal H C. Ashmore is also among the wounded. Up to date all other Frankston boys are still fighting for King and country, fit and well. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason request us to notify that owing to the legal matters relative to Mr McArthur’s sale (as per preliminary advertisement) the date of this sale cannot yet be fixed.

and painlessly into the Life Eternal, one whose sojourn here had been a ministry of benefaction for many years.

To withhold our tribute from one so worthy, to fail to record appreciation of her worth, would be ill in accordance with the nature of things, for like her Divine Master it may be said of her that she went about doing good.

In all the relations of life, as daughter, wife, mother or friend, whether in pressing poverty or bravely struggling with the hardship inseparable from the lot of a pioneer, she ever exhibited a kindliness of disposition, wealth of resource, loyalty to high principle, conscience, and duty, which marked her unmistakeably as pre-eminent among women.

Grace McComb, the subject of our memoir, was born on August 19th, 1827, at Muddy Plains, near Clarence Plains, a few miles from Hobart, Tasmania.

Sixty-three years a resident of Victoria, honored and respected by all, leaving behind her six sons, two daughters, 47 grandchildren, 33 great grandchildren, she has gone to rest. ***

SATURDAY last was the opening

*** AT 5.50 p.m., on the 26th of April, in an unpretentious cottage in William Street, Frankston, surrounded by sorrowing relatives, there passed silently

day of the Peninsula Football Association, and the weather was all that could be desired, being nice and mild, without any wind, so that it was a matter of indifference from which end the ball was kicked.

OBITUARY

Eileen Francis passes away at 99

By Peter McCullough EILEEN Elizabeth Clarke was born in Somerville on 5 January, 1916 at the private hospital run by Sister Hodgins. In 1940 she married a Hastings fisherman, Norman Herbert Francis, who died in 1999.

Eileen lived in the house that she and Norm built in Tyabb in 1953 until she passed away on 19 April, 2015.

Holy Trinity Anglican church was filled on 27 April for Eileen’s funeral service which was conducted by Rev. Alex. Packett. The eulogy was given by Richard Francis who was supported by his daughters Libby Gaynor and Debbie Francis, and his granddaughters Courtney and Taylah Gaynor. From their comments it was evident that a close bond existed between Eileen and all the members of her family. Moreover, as one of Richard’s daughters pointed out, Eileen had been a resident of Tyabb for so long and was so well known that she was called “Granny” by most of the younger generation in the town, not just her own family.

Richard mentioned that although her health had not been good in recent months, a highlight of that time had been the announcement of the first ten members selected for the Hastings Football Club Hall of Fame; included in the ten were her late husband, Norm, and his father, Bert (“Pompey”).

Eileen Francis was part of two pioneering families of our district: the Clarkes and the Denhams. In early 2011 the Western Port News ran a three part series called “Eileen and Norm”. This obituary is largely an edited version of that story. *** EILEEN’S parents were Leonard and Daisy Clarke who were orchardists in McKirdys Road. Their orchard had originally been part of the Thornell property which had been subdivided and given to family members. Some

parts were subsequently sold off and Len Clarke bought one of those. It had about 25 acres of orchard and a further 10 acres of paddocks. The main orchard had apples and pears, but there was also a smaller orchard in one corner of the paddocks where Len grew plums and apricots. The paddocks were for the horse and cows and also included a large dam.

As well as the “orchard” trees, Len always had extras-a fig tree, a cherry tree, and two mulberry trees-so that Daisy could make jams and pies with plenty of variety.

Eileen’s mother, Daisy, was a Den-

ham. Her grandfather (Henry) came from England and was the first settler in Denham Road; in due course the Denhams were joined by the Youngs, who came from South Australia, and the Grants. Daisy’s father was George Denham, and one of her brothers (Harry) managed the Tyabb Cool Store. Harry was an excellent cricketer and was captain of the Tyabb team which won the premiership in 1938-39. Other members of that team were another uncle of Eileen’s (Ray Denham) and her brother (Wes Clarke).

On the Clarke side, Eileen’s grand-

father (George) came to Somerville in the late 1880’s and the family lived in The Tower House on the main road.

The tower, which was eight sided and of glass, was removed by a later owner when it deteriorated quite badly. According to Len, Eileen’s father, the children were locked up in the tower if they were naughty but he did not mind as he could see everything that was going on in the area from up there. George’s wife (Elizabeth) had nine children, and they were all born in the Tower House. This was before the hospital was built and midwives carried out the necessary duties.

Len and Daisy Clarke had five children: Wesley George, Eileen Elizabeth, Phyllis Allison, Maurice Leonard, and Madge Isobel. All of the family except Phyllis, who lived in Moorabbin, remained in the district: Wes bought the block next to the original farm before eventually retiring into Tyabb, Eileen lived in Tyabb all her life, Maurice stayed on the home farm until he too retired into Tyabb, and Madge lived in Somerville.

Eileen and her siblings all went to Tyabb Railway Station school although their mother had attended the other Tyabb primary school on the corner of Jones and MorningtonTyabb Roads. It would have been a long walk from Denham Road but all the children in that area (the Denhams and the Thornells)went to that school as the Railway Station School had not been built.

After completing Grade 8 Eileen left school to help on the farm which was standard practice in those days.

She helped her father on the orchard, picking and packing, as well as helping her mother with the housework and, when required, she worked at the Tyabb Packing Shed.

Eileen was not all that interested in sport but her father made sure that all members of the family could swim and built a jetty on the big dam.

Picnics were often held at the end of Denham Road but if the tide was out it was too muddy for swimming.

In those days Tyabb was a very small town and everyone knew everyone else. There were the local dances on a Saturday night in the hall on the corner, and there were dances at Hastings, Somerville, Langwarrin, and Pearcedale. Balls were generally held in the Hastings hall and were big dress-up affairs. It was at one of the Tyabb dances that Eileen met Norm Francis. Norm’s family lived in Cemetery Road in Hastings where they had an orchard. Norm worked the orchard and went fishing.

After he and Eileen married in 1940 he became a full-time professional fisherman. Norm had a boat and would go out on Monday and come home on Friday, sleeping on the boat.

Eileen would cook a week’s supply of food on the Saturday and Sunday for him to take in his tucker box on the Monday morning. At the start of each winter Norm would bring the boat ashore, rub the barnacles off, and repaint it; this would give him a break of a couple of weeks.

After living initially in Thornells Lane, Eileen and Norm moved into their new house in Tyabb in 1953. A fresh fish shop was set up at the house and Eileen would spend the day filleting and selling fish while Norm was out fishing. At the weekend Norm would sit on the verandah mending his nets. Later he would walk down to the Denham Road beach carrying the nets on his shoulders.

After selling fish from the house for a number of years, Eileen and Norm opened a fish shop in Somerville.

After three years the business was sold; Norm continued with his fishing and Eileen returned to her filleting.

She had two regular outlets: the dining room at Lysaghts and the hospital in Hastings.

While Norm worked long hours as a fisherman he also managed to fit in a 52 year involvement with the Hastings Football Club: he played more than 300 games, held the position of President for 14 years in three spells, and, with Richard Everist and Ted Lillywhite, was the driving force which led to the creation of the Hastings Cricket and Football Social Club. Eileen also became involved in community matters and at times filled the role of President of both the Mothers Club and the Tyabb branch of the CWA. Richard, an only child, was born in 1942 when Eileen and Norm were living in Thornells Lane. Although a carpenter by trade, Richard has at times become involved in other ventures: he assisted in the Somerville fish shop and, more recently, started a restaurant (The Pepper Tree) in Tyabb with one of his daughters. (Although well into her 90’s, Eileen would spend her weekends cooking passionfruit sponges for the three years that the family owned the restaurant.)

The house that Eileen and Norm built in 1953 was on a double block.

Several years ago Richard built two townhouses on the spare block and now lives in one with his wife Maidie. As well as her son and daughterin-law there are also three granddaughters -Libby (and Enzo), Debbie (and Darren), and Morice-as well as seven great grandchildren-Courtney, Taylah, Harrison, Kaitlin,Cassandra, Koby and Tyler-and two step grandchildren-Jess and Kristy-who are left to mourn the passing of Eileen.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Man versus chicken: The ultimate mixed martial art

By Stuart McCullough SO that, so it seems, is that. We will spend over three hundred million dollars to not build something. Truth be told, there’s a lot of things I would be willing to not do for three hundred million. Unloading the dishwasher, taking out the bins and opening my credit card statements immediately spring to mind. The whole debacle guarantees that in future the odds of achieving a consensus regarding any major piece of infrastructure are on par with Kim Jong-un replacing Zayne in One Direction. Or as likely as hell freezing over which, as it happens, is itself currently the subject of a cost / benefit analysis by Infrastructure Australia.

Regardless of whether you were for or against the East – West link, the end result is a massive blow to the existential nether regions. But although things right now may seem bleak, there is something on the horizon that will, doubtless, restore the faith and optimism our state so sorely needs.

Soon business confidence will soar to such a level that it immediately buy a convertible and start propositioning unsuspecting passers-by. But what, I hear you ask, can a dispirited and downtrodden people possibly have to look forward to? The answer is simple: cage fighting.

When the history of this great state is written, it will rightly record that the most recent state election was a referendum on cage fighting. There can be no doubt that our Government has an unassailable mandate to introduce the sport of princes to an enthusiastic and grateful public. Forget cricket, football and soccer. Real sport wears

tights. And those who play real sports aren’t saddled with useless, pedestrian run-of-the-mill names like ‘David’, ‘Michael’ or ‘Lorraine’. Instead, truly elite athletes have memorable designations like ‘Bonecrusher’, ‘Lord Stink Breath’ and ‘Dennis’.

The great thing about cage fighting is that it relies on nothing other than the skill and strength of the participants, notwithstanding that a fiftydollar gift voucher from Bunnings

also comes in handy if you don’t happen to have a cage at your immediate disposal. In the not too distant future, we will wonder how we ever lived in a world without mixed martial arts and a few cheeky metres of chicken wire.

In fact, I predict that cage fighting will soon be a part of everyday life. I, for one, long for the day in the surely not too distant future when it becomes a standard part of school sports carnivals, right up there with lacrosse

and tunnel ball. Every school already has the infrastructure. You need only whack up an extra side on the cricket nets and – voilà – your cage-fighting arena awaits. You can’t tell me teachers aren’t looking forward to it.

For those naysayers who like to destroy everything new and beautiful and precious, they can always pack a bag and move to Western Australia – the only domino in our martial-arts loving Commonwealth yet to fall. Besides, it’s not as though the sport is anything new. Just like democracy, cage fighting was invented by the Ancient Greeks except they called it ‘Pankration’. Back then, though, it was performed in colosseums rather than cages, presumably because Bunnings would not be invented for another two thousand years.

Of those who do object, some don’t mind mixed martial arts so much as the arena. Those people are, frankly, delusional. The cage is – so I’m told – all about safety. Whose safety, I’m not altogether sure. Besides, it’s also kind of romantic. By conducting this violent and brutal sport in a cage, it gives the competitors somewhere to put their ‘I love you’ padlocks. And that, if nothing else, should count for something.

But it’s not all extreme violence and grand romantic gestures. Indeed, cage fighting is not just about mixed martial arts: it’s about mixed feelings too. Because when human beings step inside quality fencing in the name of sport, it raises deep philosophical issues.

Genevan philosopher and part time MKR celebrity judge Jean-Jacques Rousseau once wrote that Man is free, and everywhere is chains. Old Jean-

Jacques was ninety percent right. Humankind is not in chains, it’s in a great big, glorious cage. But consider this: for decades the world has worked to get chickens out of cages. In fact, we now insist that our eggs be cage free.

By putting our mixed martial artists in wire cages, are we really saying that these elite athletes are less important than a chicken?

It’s a scientific fact that chickens are mankind’s greatest natural threat.

Don’t be fooled by their calm exterior – beneath all those feathers and clucking lurks the black heart of a killer that would rather rip your heart out through your chest than it would lay you an egg. That’s why we kept them locked up for all those years. Indeed, that’s why when someone meets their demise we still refer to ‘fowl play’ (although, granted, it’s often misspelled).

Over decades, the oppressed poultry classes have lulled us into a false sense of security and we – suckers that we are – have fallen for it.

Having conned their way out of imprisonment, the fiendish fowls have gone one step further by convincing humans to get in cages. They must be laughing at us. In fact, I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if at the next bout, the entire audience is made up of chickens: Burford Browns, Buff Orpingtons and Afghan Subzwaris as far as the eye can see. We must resist. Either we insist that mixed martial arts are conducted in an entirely free-range environment or we invite all poultry to settle this once and for all with a cage fight for the ages. They’d better accept, too, lest I should have to call them, well, chicken. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Western Port News 12 May 2015

By Toe Punt LANGWARRIN dislodged Frankston YCW from the Peninsula Division top five with a come from behind fivepoint win on Saturday.

The Kangaroos trailed by 20 points at three quarter and went further down when YCW kicked the opening goal of the final quarter. However, the tenacious Kangas kicked the final five goals of the game to record a 12.8 (80) to 10.15 (75) victory. Frankston YCW went into the game without Scott McLeod, Ricky Morris, Ben Tellis, Luke Collins, Ash Eames and Anthony Barry. Despite the missing key players Gavin Artico said the four points was all that counted.

“Obviously, we were all aware of the quality of players they had missing,” Artico said. “Unfortunately, us winning the game was always going to be due to ‘YCW missing players’. It (the result) was always going to be more about YCW and less about us. Fact of the matter is, in my opinion, we proved that we have greater depth, adapted better and were full of running in the end. We ran all over them.

“We are missing Dylan Luxa, Andrew Withers, Hayden Golby, Dale Eames and our 2014 B&F winner, Liam Hogan. You could argue that they are not as big a names as the players YCW was missing but for us, they are equally as valuable. They are all well and truly in our best side.

“By quarter time on Saturday, we lost Jayden Grose and Nick Hammill. Grose had back spasms, so we were down a midfield rotation, while Hammill courageously put his body on the line and got knocked out. So this robbed us of a key position player. Again, we had to adapt and our players had to step up to the plate.

“I was really proud of the way they turned things around.

We came at them hard and whilst they tried to defend, we attacked and continued to try and score.We could have rolled over but that’s not our style. It was a good confidence builder for the group and again highlights that if we play the way we want to and stick to that, then the results would come,” Artico said.

Matty Dinkos booted five goals for the Kangas while Gerard Brown continued his domination with four majors.

Matty Naughton rucked for most of the game and was outstanding. Shane Paterson was again dominant. “Patto is really relishing his onfield leadership role and being part of the midfield group. He’s missed a lot of footy and it was always going to take time. He was never going to forget how to find the footy and be courageous, which are his strengths. It was the touch he needed and it’s well and truly back,” Artico said. Anthony Bruhn booted three goals for the Stonecats while Kevin Lylak was amongst the best in his return game.

Pines came back to earth with a massive thud after being touched up by Mornington at Alexandra Park. Missing skipper Jamie Messina with a season-ending knee injury, the Pythons were always going to struggle at Mornington, despite their four wins to open the season. Guy Hendry was the side’s most productive forward with three while Corey Ash was named his side’s best. The day belonged to the Doggies and they provided just how much ground Pines needs to make-up to be competitive against the best in the competition. Jimmy Cameron was unstoppable around the footy while the likes of Joel Miller and Adam Symes continued their dominant starts to the season. Ryan O’Dell also found a heap of the footy and Michael Gay, despite not being 100 per cent fit, dominated the ruck. The Dogs were in control for the duration and won 14.14 (99) to 6.13 (49).

Former St Kilda star Stephen Milne had little impact on Chelsea as they went down to Bonbeach by 31 points.

Whilst he kicked a goal, Milne was unable to stop Bonbeach’s onslaught, going down 12.9 (81) to 6.14 (50). Chris Bryan booted four for the winners while Justin Bennett and Mark Tyrell booted a couple each. Anthony Carrio got a heap of the footy, as did Matt Douglas and skipper Gary Carpenter for the Sharks. Hudson Thomas and Grant Trew were the best of the Gulls.

Seaford is in big trouble. The Tigers kicked just two goals against Mt Eliza on Saturday. Justin Van Unen was back from his hamstring injury and booted seven goals in the 14.18 (102) to 2.7 (19) victory. Dave Barton and Blair Whelan dominated. Kayle Henderson and Josh Stokes were the best of the Tigers.

Edithvale had 42 scoring shots to Karingal’s 22 on Saturday and recorded a 55-point win. Mick Meehan booted four goals and Brett O’Hanlon and Jarrod Garth three each for the Eagles while Aaron Paxton booted three for the Bulls. Matt Clark collected another best on ground for the Eagles while Stevey Mannix wasn’t far behind. Jordan Jones and Aaron Lees were the best of the Bulls.

Eagles show strength against Sharks NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt SOMERVILLE announced itself as a genuine premiership threat on Saturday when it held on to beat Sorrento in Nepean Division.

The win saw the Eagles replace Sorrento in the top five, while relegating the opposition to seventh place on the ladder.

It’s the second loss in a row for the Sharks after they went down to ladder leaders Red Hill by 16 points two weeks ago.

Whilst the Eagles walked away with the four points on Saturday, it wasn’t all one way traffic.

Somerville booted four goals to zip in the opening quarter and looked to be cruising at the 15 minute mark of the second when they answered a surge from the Sharks.

However, four straight goals in the final 10 minutes of the first half saw the visitors walk off the ground with a one point lead.

The second half was an arm wrestle.

Sorrento dominated the inside 50s count in the third quarter (15 to 9) but could only manage 2.1 to Somerville’s

3.1. Sorrento’s inability to score was due to the good work of the defence of Somerville, led by Ben Sedgewick and Tim Hirst, who provided plenty of drive, as well as the strong work of Kane McKenzie and Todd Farrelly.

Only one goal was scored in the last quarter, which came off the boot of Adrian Speedy, who finished with two majors for the afternoon and 16 possessions in the second half for the Eagles.

Tyrren Head and Daniel Grant were outstanding for the Sharks, while Myles Pitt and Leigh Poholke each finished with four goals.

Somerville had a much larger spread of good players.

Timmy McGennis was the best player on the ground with 28 possessions, while Rohan Hogenbirk was solid with 24 touches.

Steve Crowe did a wonderful job minding Leigh Treeby, keeping the stand-in coach to just nine possessions for the match.

Justin Farrelly controlled the ruck contests at centre bounces and around the ground, beating both Chris Morgan and Jon Croad.

We saw a different side of Somer-

ville on Saturday – a more mature side.

They jumped out of the blocks strongly for the first time this season, responded to a fightback and then got down and dirty to fight for ground in an arm wrestle.

With wins now against Sorrento and Red Hill, it’s fair to say now that the Eagles have earned the respect they were looking for in the competition.

Crib Point had a fairytale season in last year. In 2015, the Magpies’ season is over.

The Pies hosted Frankston Bombers on the home deck on Saturday and simply had to win to keep their season alive.

Winless to this point, Frankston Bombers too had a bit to prove.

The Bombers led at every change and deserved to get the four points, which they did with a 11.11 (77) to 10.13 (73) victory.

Nathan Lonie returned for the Bombers and while not setting the world on fire, provided enormous and much needed experience to a young outfit.

Zac Longham booted four goals after missing last week for personal rea-

sons and James Degenhardt was the best player on the ground.

The Bombers haven’t been that far off the mark and deserved a win under new coach Beau Muston.

Crib Point had their chances to steal the game, however, fell short in the big moments.

Dean Karies and Lee Koerner were the best of the Pies.

Both Bombers and Crib Point have one win for the season and in a tight, 16-round competition, will not take part of finals actions.

Dromana stormed home with a seven goal to one last quarter on Saturday to beat Pearcedale by 24 points, 12.16 (88) to 10.4 (64).

Pearcedale led by 16 points at three quarter time and booted the first goal of the final term to lead by a game high 21 points, before the Tigers kicked the final seven goals of the match.

16-yeard-old Sam Fowler was superb once again for the Tigers with six goals.

It was a fitting result given it was Adam Hunter’s final game in the seniors. Hunter goes into hospital for surgery this week before again tackling the fight against cancer, which

has re-emerged on his liver. The footy world is right behind Hunter.

Pearcedale youngsters Lachy Marshall and Daniel Heijden were their best players.

Hastings remains the only undefeated team in the competition and sits in second place on the ladder after beating Devon Meadows on Saturday.

The Blues controlled the match for the majority of the contest with Luke Hewitt and Colin McVeigh booting four and three goals respectively.

Beau Miller and Steven McInnes were the best of the Panthers while Kyle Beveridge booted a couple and was also solid over four quarters.

In the final game, Josh Mold booted a career-high 10 goals for Red Hill in their 25.12 (162) to 4.6 (30) victory against Tyabb.

Michael Chaplin also had a breakout game for the Hillmen with six goals and Josh Mold finished with five. Sean Holmes and Paul Wintle dominated.

It was a tough day at the office for the Yabbies, although James Cottrell was a stand out.

Magpies still winless on their home turf CRIB POINT FC

By Jared Newton CRIB POINT went down in a nailbiter to Frankston Bombers by four points to remain winless on their home deck a quarter of the way through the season.

The game ended in farcical circumstances with the siren blowing during a clear lull in the play with the umpires blaming timekeepers and the timekeepers blaming umpires for not blowing time on. While it was a dampener to an otherwise good game of footy it probably didn’t affect the result as Frankston had possession of the ball at the time and played the better footy on the day throughout.

Crib Point trailed for the majority of the afternoon and while the Pies were always in touch, Frankston always had an answer to each of Crib’s goals. Dean Kairies and Lee Koerner were superb for the Pies, and Brad Davidson caused a lot of grief around the sticks with three goals and Jon Flack still managed three despite being hampered with soreness.

James Cook also had a top knot and top notch game in the ruck.

At 1-3 the Pies season is at risk of slipping away. It’s not insurmountable but a two game away stretch coming up against Rye and Sorrento will really test the Pies’ mettle and decide whether they can back up and be finals bound in 2015.

After a brilliant team effort seven days prior the seconds fell back into some older habits going down by 39 points to a hard running Frankston side.

The Bombers have had the measure of

the Pies in the reserves in recent history and despite being a relatively competitive first half you always got the sense the win was a bit beyond the reserves as the windy conditions affected disposal efficiency. There’s no doubt there are some good signs for the reserves there.

When they’ve got the footy the side runs and carries and shares the ball well. The big stumbling block for the side is their discipline off the footy and the will to run to position and help out when they haven’t got the football. If that side of their game can be addressed there’s many more wins for them ahead.

On Saturday James Forecast was clearly best afield, with Adam Quinn playing his second consecutive good game across half back.

The under 19s delivered the goods again with an emphatic 62 point win over Frankston in the early game. Justin Rutherford has his charges playing a great brand of footy and they take on their opponents with plenty of run and carry.

Tyler Wilton has been a great target all year up forward and kicked himself another bag with five on Saturday and will increasingly come under the attention of Duane Annable for a seniors recall. Kye Espenschied and Jayden Deas also won plenty of the football through the middle as he game looked a foregone conclusion pretty early in the contest.

After a solid 3-1 start the boys have a great opportunity over the next several weeks to stamp their authority as a contender in the under 19 competition.

Blues defy conditions to notch up win HASTINGS FNC

By Phil Stone, club president SENIORS REPORT IT was a tough day at the office. The wind out on the ground was horrendous and made it really tough to use the football.

The game was strange with the first quarter littered with wasted opportunities and we didn’t really take advantage of the breeze.

At half-time we said we were not playing the way we wanted to and the boys come out and responded. It was great to see us put in a big third quarter and basically win the game in that quarter. It is always good to get wins in scrappy games, I believe, because it shows great mental stability in game plan and the confidence to look at the guy next to you and know he is going to get the job done for you.

I felt that Shaun Foster and Paul Rogasch were fantastic for us. Final score: Final score: Devon Meadows 6.8 (44) to Hastings 11.11 (77).

UNDER 19s by Aaron Wilson A tough loss to swallow as the Hastings Under 19s succumbed to a narrow 5-point loss against Dromana. A slow first half cost the home side as Dromana took the ascendency in the first quarter leading by 17 points.

From here on out, Hastings played catch up until the final siren. Full credit to the guys though as they reduced a 24-point lead to 5 points with not long remaining in the final quarter.

Stephen Williams, moved back to into the middle, proved an instrumental move as he found plenty of it and kicked two important goals. Forwards Dan Culnane and Liam Rogan were potent down forward and gave us plenty of opportunities.

Hastings will rue a missed opportunity but will take plenty of positives out of this encounter.

NETBALL REPORT Hastings vs Dromana It was another hard day for all teams but we remain positive, committed and continue to support each other in our quest to see some closer results.

C again battled throughout their match, the very new players are starting to look a little more comfortable on the netball court being well supported by the more experienced team mates and their coach Talia. Talia was very happy with Tessa Cave going into goals and creating some space and Ash Masterson for doing what was asked of her. C grade also welcomed Karen Barton for her first game for the Blues.

B was a tough fought contest with some strong defence from Issy Shepherd, Abbie Baker and Alana Stone with Rachel Miller trying hard all day up the goaling end. The Girls showing some great improvement and we look forward to this continuing.

A grade came up against a very experienced Devon team however they worked tirelessly and never gave up throughout their match with Emily doing a great job in the centre position.

Let’s support each other with lots of cheering from the side lines.

Next week the Hastings Blues are at Home with our seniors going for their fifth win on the trot should be a great day of Football/Netball.

Let’s make sure that everyone who supports our great club gets down to cheer on our young men and women.

Hastings FNC vs Somerville FNC, all games start 10am.

Important dates to remember Tuesday 19 May at 7pm an evening with Rosie Batty gold coin donation at The Hastings Club, Saturday 30 May, 8pm BABBA. Cost $30 a ticket at The Hastings Club.

Go Blues.
