Strength in numbers

AN atmosphere of post-war idealism by civic-minded parents and councillors was fertile ground to launch a Kingston organisation that’s about to celebrate its first 50 years. Mordialloc Community Centre, which began in inauspicious circumstances in 1964, is now a thriving community hub offering all types of programs, play groups, classes and positive ageing activities. Above all it caters for our love of sport and our uncompromising need for lifestyle. To celebrate the centre’s milestone, it has compiled a 120-page book chronicling its momentous history. Complete with photos and recollections, it tells the story of how the centre came to be and its evolution towards 2014. The book will be launched later this month at the Dingley International Hotel.

‘Ice’ menace fuels burglaries Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au THE scourge of ‘ice’ – or crystal methamphetamine – is a key driver of house burglaries and vehicle break-ins in Chelsea, Mordialloc and Carrum areas, a senior policeman says. Detective Senior Sergeant Brad Daly, of Moorabbin Criminal Investigation Unit, said ice was “the biggest problem” because of the craving it

induced in victims and because of the “frightening responses” it caused in their behaviour. “They’ll commit ‘annoying’ offences to get money for ice, such as smashing car windows for small change in the console, or anything they can get their hands on to on-sell to pawn shops.” Victoria Police data shows Chelsea had 12 burglaries per 1000 homes in 2013-14; 128 burglaries in 2013-14

and 436 burglaries over the past five years. There are 10,687 homes in the suburb. Carrum had 12.3 burglaries per 1000 homes; 63 in 2013-14 and 224 in the past five years. It has 5012 homes. Mordialloc had 11.6 burglaries per 1000 homes; 160 burglaries in 2013-14 and 616 over the past five years. It has 13,835 homes. Neighbouring Keysborough had

14.7 burglaries per 1000 homes; 96 burglaries in 2013-14 and 453 in the past five years. It has 6551 homes. Detective Daly said criminals were known to drive from the western suburbs to commit burglaries and thefts from cars in bayside suburbs and then drive back home. Their faces and appearances are not familiar to local police and their activities are more likely to go unnoticed.

The high volume of recidivist offenders is a constant nuisance. “You can’t help them,” he said. “But when we lock them up the crime rate goes down.” Detective Daly said the biggest ‘volume crimes’ were thefts from motor vehicles. “The most frustrating thing for us is that at least 50 per cent of cars broken into are unlocked,” he said.

Seniors Festival in full swing

Police: ‘ice’ fuels crime, break-ins

SENIORS are up and about for the Kingston Seniors Festival held throughout the month of October. The festival, now in its seventh year, offers an extensive program of activities and learning experiences for Kingston seniors. Aspendale Senior Citizens Club, which has 300 members and hosts events for seniors all year round, is putting on a number of special events for the festival. Table tennis sessions are just one of the many activities on offer. This year’s festival program includes more than 130 activities presented by Kingston Council and community groups. This year festival features a rich variety of events and activities to showcase what the Kingston community has to offer, including Mediterranean music, Men’s Shed barbeque, a Wedding Bush Festival and wine and cheese tasting. And back by popular demand are the ‘Still in the Pink’ U3A choir and multicultural music, singing, dancing and food from around the world. More than 5000 people attended festival events last year. See www.kingston.vic.gov.au/seniors for full Kingston Seniors Festival program details or call Kingston Council’s positive ageing officer Yvonne Honey on 9581 4646.

Continued from Page 1 “If motorists are going to leave their cars unlocked, then they shouldn’t leave any valuables on view inside. If a thief sees a car is unlocked he will have a look inside. Or, if he sees valuables on the seat or in the console be will break in. “Remember, it’s only a smashed window to them. For the motorist it is a costly lesson.” Detective Daly said modern police intelligence and “active investigation” was helping reduce local crime, as was a flexible response to tacking the issues of the day. “We have different strategies when investigating burglaries or thefts from cars, and we use intelligence sources to gather information and assess different MOs (modus operandi) to help identify the culprits. And we follow up with the victims.” He said all police were briefed on what crimes were happening in specific areas and an intelligence data base kept track of “who is moving about in those areas”. This information can help link offenders with time-andplace scenarios, making apprehension easier. “If anyone would like police help in making their premises less vulnerable to break-in – particularly commercial premises - they should call Moorabbin Crime Prevention on 9556 6565 or look it up on the Victoria Police website.”

Men arrested over armed robberies Chris Brennan chris@baysidenews.com.au TWO men have been arrested over a spate of armed robberies allegedly committed over a four-week period across the bayside and peninsula regions. Frankston armed robbery squad detectives arrested a 21-year-old man at the Ambassador Hotel in Frankston last Wednesday morning. Later the same morning a 26-year-

old from Skye was arrested after his vehicle was pulled over at Springvale. Both men were charged with multiple counts of armed robbery and have been remanded in custody. Police are still looking for a third man alleged to have been involved in the crime spree. The men are alleged to have held up six retail outlets at knife point, including service stations at Patterson Lakes, Black Rock, Frankston, Hastings and Crib Point.

Police had been searching for a stolen early model Holden Commodore sedan that was alleged to have been used in each of the armed robberies. After a two week lull following the fifth armed robbery in which a service station in Davey St, Frankston, was held up on Sunday 17 August, the gang allegedly struck again. On Sunday 31 August, a liquor outlet in Ringwood was robbed at knife point by balaclava clad bandits.

Peninsula Fireplace

But as gang sped away, they crashed their getaway car. While they managed to escape on foot, police were able to recover the crashed vehicle – a stolen early model Holden Commodore sedan. Detectives obtained forensic evidence from the vehicle which allegedly led to the identification of the two men arrested on Wednesday. They have been remanded in custody to appear before Melbourne Magistrates Court on 18 December.

LAST week’s article ‘Splashing cash is child’s play’ (The News 1/10/14) stated state government funding for both the Carrum Family and Children’s Hub and foreshore is dependent on the re-election of the Napthine Coalition government at November’s state election. The state government’s $1.6 million contribution to the $4m Carrum Family and Children’s Hub is fully budgeted and will flow to the project regardless of which political party wins government next month. State funding of $540,000 towards improved safety and access at the Carrum foreshore announced by Premier Denis Napthine on the same day (Wednesday 1 October) is dependent on the re-election of the Napthine Coalition government. The News is happy to correct the record.

Businesses should unite to thrive together BUSINESS owner Meg O’Grady says many Chelsea shops are “doing it tough” and is urging local shoppers to get out and support local stores this summer. Ms O’Grady is joint owner of the Black Sheep Licensed Grocer which opened its doors at 407 Nepean Highway in September last year. She said last Saturday’s ‘Support Small Business Day in Kingston’ was a step in the right direction but shopper turnout was “not as well as expected”. “Maybe it was because it was the last week of the school holidays but it seemed quieter than usual for a Saturday,” Ms O’Grady said. Black Sheep sells gourmet food, wine and beer and specialises in overseas produce – with an emphasis on UK snacks and beers – unavailable elsewhere. The store, at the site of the former Chelsea Super Fresh store, has been completely renovated and freshened up. Despite Chelsea shops’ “battle” to survive, Ms O’Grady said many owners work together to help each other out. Black Sheep, for example, buys meat from Chelsea Quality Meats. Ms O’Grady said it would be a positive if Chelsea shop owners could establish a traders association to support each other. nBusiness owners are invited to visit the State Government’s Small Business Bus which will visit Pompei’s Landing at Mordialloc on Monday 13 October. The Small Business Bus offers free mentoring with an experienced business professional providing advice on growing a small business.

Greens gear up for election Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THE Australian Greens hope their rise as the ‘third force’ in Victorian politics will translate into more votes at next month’s state election. First time candidate Alex Breskin will contest the seat of Mordialloc, going up against Liberal MP Lorraine Wreford and Labor challenger Tim Richardson while seasoned political campaigner Henry Kelsall takes on Carrum Liberal MP Donna Bauer and Labor candidate Sonya Kilkenny. Mr Breskin, 23, said “planning issues” are a concern for many Kingston residents he canvasses, including “inappropriate development” where infrastructure may not be able to support apartment living. Public transport woes are another bugbear regularly mentioned by voters. Mr Breskin understands their frustrations since he travels to the city each day for work and is forced to catch two trains and a bus to get to his Northcote workplace. “Peak hour on the Frankston line is a nightmare… people are upset money is being spent by the state government on the East West Link instead of public transport,” he said. Mr Kelsall, 58, a teacher at Patterson River Secondary College and co-founder of the peninsula branch of the Greens, is a strong advocate for solar power and is critical of recent federal Coalition government cutbacks for the industry. “I’ll lobby for the erection of

Greens candidate for Mordialloc Alex Breskin

solar panels on all school roofs in the Carrum electorate as well as the reintroduction of incentives for the installation of solar panels and a better deal for electricity charged back into the grid,” he said. If elected, Mr Kelsall said he would also seek bilateral support for The Greens’ proposal of a 10 cent refund on all plastic and glass bottles and aluminium cans. Mr Breskin said ensuring all Victorians had an equal opportunity to get a good education is “a bit of a passion of mine”. The former Bentleigh Secondary student said he was lucky enough to

go to a school situated in a marginal seat which ensured the public school received its fair share of funding. It is good fortune he would like to see shared by all Victorian public schools. “Education is a great way to invest in people,” Mr Breskin said. “I got into university and it improved my life since I was then able to work as an IT developer.” Mr Breskin said the federal Coalition government’s backflip on the Gonski schools funding, also known as the Better Schools program, is “an absolute joke”. “It’s really heartbreaking.”

Protecting Kingston’s Green Wedge from “the threat of development” is a passion of Mr Kelsall’s. He is a member of the Defenders of the South East Green Wedge and helped establish the conservation group. “I maintain my support for Melbourne’s green wedges and oppose all changes to their detriment,” he said. The Greens’ preferences in Carrum and Mordialloc could determine which of ‘the big two’ party candidates win the marginal seats.

Beach dogs rules DOG owners should note summertime rules on beach access for their pets come into effect from 1 November. Kingston Council CEO John Nevins urged dog owners to be clear on summertime beach access rules. “The City of Kingston has 13 kilometres of Port Phillip Bay coastline which is available to all of us for a range of uses, but it’s vital that dog owners respect the rules that are in place to ensure the safety of everyone who uses our beaches,” Mr Nevins said. “Kingston has many designated dog exercise areas and off leash areas, as well as four sites with excellent dog exercise equipment in Chelsea, Mordialloc, Cheltenham and Clayton South.” Council has started a 12-month trial of a 24hour dog off-leash area at Mentone beach. The trial is under way along a 450-metre stretch of beach, on the sand area only, between Charman Rd and the entry point opposite Plummer Rd in Mentone. It is the first time Kingston’s dog owners have had 24-hour, all year-round beach access. As part of the new trial dogs must be under effective control at all times and are not allowed off leash until they reach the sand. See www.kingston.vic.gov.au/pets for maps and full details of the restrictions in place from 1 November until 31 March next year or call Kingston Council on 1300 653 356 for further details.

Home away from home celebrates a milestone A MUCH loved community organisation that evolved from a wooden hut in a muddy field 50 years ago to become a dynamic community hub is about to celebrate its golden anniversary. For much of that time, Mordialloc Community Centre – Warren Rd - has been a ‘home away from home’ for the thousands of residents who have passed through its doors. Milestone moments include campaigning and fundraising for the Don Tatnell Leisure Centre, surviving the 90s recession and ward amalgamations, lobbying for a $1 million redevelopment in the early 2000s, and becoming part of the Parkdale Precinct Project in 2013. An activities section profiles the successes of teams and individuals. Activities that have blossomed over the entire 50 years are gymnastics, basketball, netball and women’s fitness. The centre has been home to playgroup and senior citizens’ groups since the early 1970s. To celebrate this milestone, the centre has compiled a 120-page book of its momentous history. Complete with 50 years of photos and recollections, it tells the story of how the centre came to be and its evolution to 2014. Author Dianne Filipenko, a former manager of the centre, has lived in Kingston for 14 years. “Fifty years is a monumental milestone for an idea that began with a wooden hut in a muddy field,” she said. “What started in the 1960s as a recreational, after-school youth club, is now a dynamic community hub, accessible for people of all ages with diverse interests.” Originally known as the City of Mordialloc Community and Youth Centre,

the centre was formed in 1964 against a “backdrop of post-war idealism by civic-minded parents and councillors,” Ms Filipenko said. Australia’s emerging values of sport, fitness and leisure during the 70s and 80s influenced the growth and success of the enterprise. A new focus on health, arts, crafts, and social connections shaped the centre during the 90s and early 2000s. With the turn of the century and a new millennium, the centre expanded in size and evolved again. “Former child participants were welcomed back as new parents with children of their own,” Ms Filipenko said. “Today, many of these early members are baby -boomers who now bring their Generation Z and Millennium grand-children to learn dance, gymnastics, karate, netball and basketball, as well as attending the centre’s wide variety of positive ageing activities themselves.” The centre also offers employment and volunteer opportunities for teens and young adults. “There is also a strong underlying social commentary that runs parallel to the history of the centre,” Ms Filipenko said. “The book is a snapshot of Australia’s post-war suburban recreational and leisure history, our love of sport and uncompromising need for lifestyle.” The book will be launched at a luncheon on 22 October at Dingley International Hotel. Tickets at $50 include a copy of the book, which can be preordered for $20. Details: Mordialloc Community Centre 9580 3675. Stephen Taylor

Weather takes charge

WILD weather upended trees and pulled down power poles in Edithvale and nearby suburbs last week. In Montrose Ave, near Rae Ave, a power pole was snapped in half and ended up on the road, and a tree came down pulling what was left of the power pole over with it. Live lines were down all along the street. An Edithvale CFA member said a Mitsubishi Magna driving down the road came in contact with the live power lines and received burn marks to its roof. Police and the CFA blocked off the roads until the power company arrived to repair the damage. Edithvale beach, above, also copped a belting. Pictures: Gary Sissons

Safety rules with ‘red fever’ By Paul “Tracker” Pingiaro EACH year tens of thousands of Melbournians venture out onto the bays – Port Phillip and Western Port in search of big red. Many are season veterans, many greenhorns all sharing the waters, all with the same goal. Anglers get caught up in the "red fever" and take risks, risks that are avoidable. Whenever you venture out on the water you're entering a potential unknown. The trick to safe boating and fishing is reducing the unknown. Weather reports should be checked, tides known, local hazards acknowledged, safety gear inspected and boat maintenance in order. The water is not a place for risks. I always say to my clients it's best to wish you were on the water than to wish you weren't. Spring can bring some big weather fronts and storms, take care and be aware. Early season snapper continue to be all the hype, but the season is young and anglers shouldn't forget about other species. It's rare, but at the moment the same fishing report can be given for both bays. Snapper are holding over the deeper reefs (6-12m), squid are still strong over the weed beds and shallow reefs (2-4m), the deep waters are holding gummy sharks and flathead are consistent over the sand (8-14m). The whiting are still a little slow and reports are patchy, although I think this is more due to most anglers concentrating on snapper. For those that are land locked the next 4-6 weeks is your peak time to bag a snapper. Early season snapper

follow the old fault lines up the bay, these paths take them quite close to shore, while rough conditions are favoured by many, don't push the limits. If you're fishing off the rocks, don't go alone. Remember, fishing is a recreation, time to enjoy the environment, cleanse the mind and feed the soul, whether it's on a boat, kayak, pier, bank, beach or rocks, it's your time to

enjoy so play it safe around the water this fishing season. Tight lines and calm seas. n Paul “Tracker” Pingiaro runs Mornington Boat Hire at Schnapper Point in Mornington and Yaringa Boat Hire at Yaringa boat harbour in Somerville (www.morningtonboathire.com.au or call 5975 5479).

Appeal to provide nursery with ‘loving care’ AN appeal launched last week will raise money to rejuvenate two key areas in Frankston Hospital’s special care nursery, which treats more than 500 sick and premature newborns each year. The special care unit’s family and lactation rooms are “in dire need of some tender loving care”, according to special care nursery unit manager Alison Conroy-Joyce. “Currently, they are clinical and uninviting spaces that could easily be transformed into a relaxing and warm space with a coat of paint, new lighting and furniture,” she said. The appeal aims to raise $30,000 to improve the care of new mums and families in Frankston and across the peninsula who’s acutely ill, or premature, newborns are admitted to the special care nursery. About 5800 appeal letters were mailed out to residents on Friday. Ms Conroy-Joyce said environment played a “significant role” in a family’s experience in such a sensitive setting. “A new mother’s birth story is unique,” she said. “It is especially important that the surrounding environment for our mums, partners and babies is one of comfort and support. “This is especially important in those first few fragile days of their baby’s life.” Creating a space where families can come together for some private time with their sick child, or even on their own to regroup, plays an important role in a place like a special care nursery, she said. As well as wanting to create a warm and inviting place for families, the hospital’s birthing team aims to provide a private place for new mums to express breast milk for their newborns in the nursery. “Like the family room, our current lactation room has a cold and clinical feel and we want to be able to create an inviting space where new mums can come and express milk in privacy and comfort,” Ms Conroy-Joyce said. “Having a child in the special care nursery can often be a stressful experience in itself. Our aim, with the help of the community, is to take away some of those stresses, even if it’s just for a moment.” To contribute to the appeal to help the peninsula’s littlest and sickest patients contact the Peninsula Health Fundraising Department on 9788 1284 or visit peninsulahealth.org.au

Choir in rehearsal THE School of Hard Knocks Frankston choir will hit their first tentative notes at 10am on Wednesday 22 October at the Uniting Care Church, 16-18 High St. The choir is being modelled on the original, successful choirs featuring the disadvantaged and homeless that aims to give them a purpose and focus in life – rather than just a drab, humdrum existence on the streets. The concept was launched at a Rotary Club of Frankston Long Island fundraiser at the Frankston International Motel last month attended by Choir originator Jonathon Welch. The group is hoping to attract prospective choir members as well as agency workers and anyone who may be interested in volunteering to help with lunches and support members. Morning tea and lunch will be provided. Community Support Frankston acting manager Steve Phillips said the aim of the choir was to engage people experiencing disadvantage in Frankston - be it homelessness, loneliness, social isolation and disability with the arts. “It is a cost-free program for all choir members - and no prior experience in singing or music is required,” he said. “The first term of the program will run for eight weeks with an opportunity to join in performances come midDecember.” The choir will be run by experienced members of the School of Hard Knocks and it is anticipated that most choir members will be referred by an agency or worker. “This model has been running successfully in many parts of Melbourne for nearly a decade and a big part of its success has been willingness from local agencies to refer and engage clients in the program,” Mr Phillips said. “It’s not a pre-requisite that choir members have an agency rep or caseworker to ‘prove’ their disadvantage but, rather, that the choir coordinators have a contact point if needed.” He said the events of 22 October will be more of a “come and experience” day for prospective choir members, volunteers and agency workers.

Parties to debate merits of port Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au THE two main political parties have agreed to public debates in Hastings and Geelong over the site for Victoria’s next major port. The Liberal-led government is spending $110 million to clear the way for expanding the Port of Hastings, while Labor says the next container port should be near Geelong, the so-called Bay West proposal. Both projects will require dredging and landbased infrastructure. A report commissioned by seven councils in south east Melbourne puts the total cost of the port at $16 billion. Successive governments have previously put the cost at $11 billion without revealing the cost of other infrastructure, such as roads and rail lines. Estimates of job creation vary widely, with Melbourne’s next port likely to be highly computerised. Transportation of containers by road and rail is a divisive issue, with critics claiming most cargoes need to go to the west of Melbourne. Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Antonella Celi entered the political arena in August, calling Labor’s Bay West proposal “fundamentally flawed”. Describing Hastings as “the only operational deep water port capable of accommodating the larger container ships currently being constructed and used worldwide”, Cr Celi said the amount of dredging needed for Bay West “just doesn’t stack up”. No estimates have been made public on the amount of dredging needed in Western Port. With less than two months to go before the Saturday 29 November state election, South East Melbourne councils’ group is also lobbying for Hastings. The report commissioned by the councils – Mornington Peninsula, Frankston, Kingston, Casey, Greater Dandenong, Cardinia and Bass Coast - sees the port as a bonanza for jobs and manufacturing. The report says the port would have a beneficial economic impact of an average of $60 million a year in gross regional product over 30 years; providing an average 400 jobs a year over that same time frame. It says the expanded port would lead to an extra 5700 jobs by the mid-2030s and 15,200 jobs by the early 2050s. Frankston Council, a member of the group, is touting itself as the commercial hub of an expanded Port of Hastings. The one-hour long debates between Ports Minister David Hodgett and Labor’s ports, freight and logistics spokeswoman Natalie Hutchins will be in Geelong on Monday 6 October and a week later at Hastings, Monday 13 October. The two parties have been bickering over the format of the debate, with Labor claiming Mr

Hodgett did not want to be questioned by the public and the minister in turn accusing Labor leader Dan Andrews of “acting like door security” and taking over arrangements from Ms Hutchins staff. "Since that time various proposals have gone back and forth from my office to Dan Andrews' office to try and arrange what I believe should be a proper debate between myself and Ms Hutchins around port policies,” Mr Hodgett said. "It has become abundantly clear that the Opposition leader's office is trying to avoid a debate, or turn it into a town hall style meeting that can easily be high-jacked by stacking the room with branch members and supporters. "I have made it clear from the start that we want a debate between the politicians, so that both sides can present their policies and the community can make up their own minds. Ms Hutchins agreed to this request.” Labor issued a news release welcoming the “long-overdue debates … about the future location of the state’s next container port”. “Labor initially proposed to allow questions from the floor, but David Hodgett wouldn’t let the community participate,” Ms Hutchins said. “The communities of Hastings and Geelong are keen to asked questions on the jobs and environmental impacts of the Napthine government’s decision and we hope that Minister Hodgett is prepared to answer them. “If David Hodgett can’t answer serious questions about Hastings, then it’s not a serious option.” Flinders MP Greg Hunt, who has criticised The News for not doing in-depth analysis of the Bay West proposal, said there is no proposal for him to assess regarding the Port of Hastings, “but if one were put forward, it would have to be assessed by what is likely to be one of Australia’s most comprehensive environmental impact statements under federal law”. In relation to concerns that the state government may be able to give the go ahead to expanding the Port of Hastings under the federal government’s proposed ‘one-stop shop’ laws, Mr Hunt said this could “only be established where a state or territory can satisfy me that they will meet statutory standards”. “The one-stop shop will not only deliver approximately $420 million in direct benefits to business every year, but will result in better environmental outcomes,” Mr Hunt said.

Port updates THE Port of Hastings Development Authority is holding “drop-in” community information sessions to provide updates on the progress of surveys and planning to expand the port. The drop-in sessions will be held at: Tyabb, 4pm Wednesday 8 October, Tyabb Community Hall, 1535 Frankston-Flinders Rd, Tyabb.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Delays as newspaper staff off to the war Compiled by Cameron McCullough WE have been compelled to hold over correspondence from Somerville and Hastings and other matter till our next issue, owing to the majority of our staff having enlisted for the war, and for the same reason we have to apologise for appearing a day late this week. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold their monthly sale at Somerville on Wednesday next. *** AT the last meeting of the First Aid, held some days ago, a hearty vote of thanks was tendered Dr. Maxwell for his course of interesting and instructive lectures which he had delivered. *** WE would remind our readers of the Percy Blundell Concert to be held in the Hastings Hall on Friday next, when he will be ably assisted by Miss Rosa Alba, Rosa Walton and Mr Warnecke. A combination of no mean order, and as ten per cent of the proceeds are to be devoted to the Patriotic Fund there will be a bumper house, to give a warm welcome to these artists. *** SPECIAL Home Mission Services will be held in the Frankston Methodist Church Circuit during next week, commencing on Sunday, when Sister Bessie (the deputation) will preach at Frankston, Langwarrin and Somerville in the morning, afternoon and evening respectively. Meetings will he held in the different centres during the week, places and dates being advertised in another column.

*** THE Home Mission Fund collection at St Paul’s Church Frankston was a great success. With money previously collected by Miss Picking for the fund the total came to £11 1s, which is more than last year’s collection and nearly up to the best previous collection, that of 1912. *** A VERY hardworking bee met at Seaford on Saturday, to paint the Seaford hall and Church. At the end of the day the whole was covered with the best red oxide, picked out with white lead. Many of the amateurs showed a great facility for painting their faces and hands, as well as for covering their clothes with spots. Of those who are not permanent residents at Seaford we should mention Messrs Reg. Coulson and Fred Woolnough, who helped with expert advice and expert work, also Mr Brady and a friend who worked untiringly. Mrs Latimerand Mrs W. Wilson looked after the commissariat. *** THE total money taken at the St Paul’s Club presentation of “Who’s Who?” for the Patriotic Fund was £5 10s, being door £5 8s, and one subscription 2s from Dr Maxwell. The expenses were 11s for printing and 19s for miscellaneous expenses, including hire of properties. Thus there was £4 profit, which has been handed to the Treasurer of the Patriotic Fund. *** THE members of the Dromana Sports Club are notified in our advertising column that the annual meeting of the

above Club will be held in the Dromana Hall on Friday night Oct. 16th. The committee are considering the advisability of holding the next race meeting on the racecourse near Moores corner, on Boxing Day the 26th of December. *** The Kaiser. The figure standing out from all others in Europe today is William II, Emperor of Germany – a man who has held the peace of Europe in the palm of his hand for the last ten years. He came into the world with the brightest prospects. He was the eldest son of an eldest daughter, his mother being the eldest child of the late Queen Victoria. Through this relationship he has claimed, since he was eight years of age, that he is the rightful heir to the throne of Britain. Authorities claim that his position rests upon a solid foundation, and there can be no doubt that his assistant war-lords have incited his ambition in this direction to the over balancing point in which he is poised today. As a boy, too, his insatiable hatred for Britain was very marked. His mother tried again and again to induce him to go to England for a holiday, and enter into the family life of his cousins. But, no, these entreaties only brought forth jeers and contempt for his mother’s aims, and finally he told her he would go there as King of England; but, first, he would be crowned in Paris as King of France. Naturally, his mother was made very unhappy by this attitude towards the

land of her birth. She and her husband, the late Emperor Frederick, sought council in the matter, and it was determined to procure one of the most distinguished English tutors, whose main task would be to impress their young hopeful with the laws of primogeniture and laws of heredity, particularly, William was not long in discovering the objective of his new tutor, and then commenced a warfare of debate. Young as he was, he gave his English tutor chapter and verse of English history, from the days of the Norman Conquest up to that moment. He also told his tutor – a solid Englishman with English traditions – that the English were not English at all, and that England was conquered by a Frenchman. He also said that he could see the day when France and England would fight side by side to wrest his German Dominions from him. One day when he worked himself into a terrific passion with his tutor over this burgeoning question, his mother entered the room. It was the first chance he had of speaking to his mother and tutor together. He thundered these words at them. “You will never impress me, nor would all the world, against what I believe. My mother is the eldest daughter of England’s Queen, and I am my mother’s eldest son, and I will sit on that throne, with the help of God and my right arm, even if the world be bathed in blood to accomplish it.” Needless to add, his mother’s heart-

strings were torn by such display but she bravely beseeched him to, curb his warlike spirit, and reminded him there had been enough French and German blood spilt already to last through his lifetime. The English tutor resigned immediately, adding that Prince William’s mind was like a smouldering volcano, with terrible possibilities if ever he were possessed of power. The next action, which was a powerful searchlight on his character, was when he was crowned Emperor. His jealousy of Bismarck was well known, and now was the time to humiliate and degrade the man who had federated Germany with such success that the French lay mangled in the dirt. He sent for the Iron Chancellor, stripped him of his orders and offices, and ordered him into retirement. Meetings of protest were held all over Germany, but Bismarck consoled himself by quoting the proverb, “The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind exceeding small.” From the day of his coronation to this he has made the world record his daily movements, but when the settling up comes, the meanest savage in all Central Africa would not change places with him. As a worker and a thinker, he scarcely has a rival; in fact, he was conquering the world through education, industry and peace. Now, a dark pall of despair is laid over unhappy Germany. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 10 October, 1914.

ENTERTAINMENT

Performance ERIC Clapton (born Eric Patrick Clapp) was a stained glass window designer before he took on a career as a blues guitarist. Clapton was influenced by artists such as Muddy Waters, B.B King, Albert King and Elmore James. Eric’s real break came in 1963 when he joined The Yardbirds just in time for the first British invasion on the American rock and roll scene. Clapton only lasted 12 months in the band claiming The Yardbirds had become far too commercial. Three years later, in 1966, Robert Stigwood met jazz drummer Ginger Baker (Peter Baker) who was working with Alexis Korner and Scottish bass player Jack Bruce, who was working with Manfred Mann and matched them up with Clapton. The three agreed to work together under the band name Cream, and Stigwood produced their first single Wrapping Paper. Cream released their first album Fresh Cream in the US in 1967 which turned Gold thanks to the hit single I Feel Free. By the end of 1968 Cream was the top new band in the US with hits such as White Room written by Bruce/Baker, Crossroads, Badge, Strange Brew, Sunshine of Your Love and I Feel Free. Next month, Shock Entertainment will release Planes, Trains and Eric by Eric Clapton on DVD and Blu-ray. This is an intimate film documenting life on the road during part of his 2014 tour intercut with superb full length performances. The film features many classic tracks including Layla, Cocaine, Tears in Heaven, Crossroads, Wonderful Tonight, I Shot the Sherriff and more. Planes, Trains and Eric follows Eric Clapton and his band on the Far and Middle Eastern leg of his 2014 World Tour. The film features 13 full length performances from the tour intercut with interviews with Eric Clapton and the band members, rehearsal and soundcheck footage and many aspects of being on the road with Eric Clapton. The line-up of the band featured on the film is Eric Clapton (guitarvocals), Steve Gadd (drums), Paul

Eagle Farm, Queensland was established in 1863, Royal Randwick, New South Wales is Australia’s oldest major racing venue, established in 1833, although between 1838 and 1860 it moved to Homebush. Morphettville, South Australia, hosted its first race meeting in 1875 and is home to the South Australian Jockey Club. Flemington, Victoria, is the oldest continuing metropolitan racecourse in the country, with races run annually since 1840. The Melbourne Cup, the richest and most famous Australian horse race, was first run on the course

in 1861. Flemington is also home to the Victoria Racing Club, which celebrates its 150th anniversary this year. The stamp issue’s associated products include a first day cover, stamp pack, maxicard set of four, booklet of 10 x 70c self-adhesive stamps and a designed gutter strip of 10 x 70c stamps. Now available at participating Post Offices, via mail order on 1800 331 794 and online at www.auspost.com.au/stamps *** CLOUDS over Tamworth is the 2nd single from John Williamson’s 50th album release Honest People, produced by Matt Fell.

ever changing. My concern is not so much the obvious insularity of many Australians but moreso the way they embrace it; (read: ignore what’s happening). Yes, Joe gave us a dreadful budget (no surprise from this underperformer) but beautifully trumped by Tony’s aggressive approach to warmongering and playing up the dangers within our everyday society from mysterious European looking citizens, (read: Islamic radicalism). Thus they slip in new laws in the authoritarian sense supported by highly publicised raids, almost literally without comment. Bill Shorten checkmated, so far anyway. The grand finals of the two football codes closely followed by the Spring Racing Carnival, Christmas, sun, surf and barbeques serve as pleasant doses of Valium. “She’ll be right mate” clearly a thing of the past, but like global warming, the “not to worry” approach can have consequences. *** WE fast approach that time of year; Melbourne Cup Day through to February and the influx of holidays makers, including the smaller collection of ratbags, jet skis and swisho utes. Living alongside a block of two bedroom holiday units I’m biased. If they’re of Asian, Indian or Muslim parents I can expect a peaceful even-

ing. If it’s Aussie males or females I’m looking at possibly heavy music and swearing till 3am, unless I courageously bang on the fence around midnight to plead quiet, not always successfully. Thank God for Serepax. Some of our state pollies (both sides) get the cream, but think positive. If they’re up there lording it on champers and caviar during the Spring Racing Carnival, or the opera, the Grand Final et al they stay well away from our areas, Mentone to Sorrento. (They fly to Portsea. And all for free, invited no less. “How sweet it is”. With apologies to Jacky Gleason. *** THEY have meetings, in big rooms with important names: committeeroom, boardroom, even conferenceroom. The name means nothing. Cakes, coffee, tea, water and chocolate bikkies are available, possibly whisky if it’s after 10am. They have power laptops for access to all the financial trends; profit to turnover ratio and like stuff. They wear suits of course, unless they have the odd female on board. Banks, power companies, insurance companies, superannuation boards, supermarkets. They all imbibe. A conversation beforehand on golf swings before the real business. Sometimes a brilliant idea, like sending out letters telling

us of a percentage cut in our bills, or spending more to save less. It doesn’t matter what - as long as it convinces us things go better with coke, so to speak. All are furphies, designed to hide the underlying truth of all discussions, the bottom line. “How to extract that dollar out of our pockets and place it into theirs”. *** WE did not find that plane? We haven’t brought them all home, yet? Aha, now we apparently have an “achievable objective” in Iraq. Christopher Pyne: “We have the capabilities, and given we have these capabilities it would be wrong of us not to be involved”. Tell me readers, what is Tony’s upper class prefect saying? Reminds me of how officers were appointed in England in preparation for World War I. Class first, ability assumed. *** DOES ‘no’ mean ‘yes’? Apparently some men think so. With 40 years of marriage behind me I can say with certainty ‘no’ always meant no, and I have no trouble bringing to mind the odd time or two when I was glad of it. Before marriage when I had no idea of the next move anyway, during marriage as a respite, and now as a relaxing, occasionally frustrating memory. Strangely, when I said no,

John has had a busy year with a new album, release of his biography Hey True Blue, and the commencement of a major tour. About his new single Clouds over Tamworth, Williamson said: “It occurred to me that I had not heard a song about Tamworth that described its beautiful clouds and the flooding Peel River. I nearly called the song The Tower of Legends which is my imaginary tower that is made up of Australian song that have built our country music legacy”. www.johnwilliamson.com.au *** Hot on the heels of the continuing chart success of the very well received new song Broke Down Heart, Victorian country singer Doug Bruce has released his latest album offering Somewhere Better to Be. The album was officially launched at the Gympie Music Muster. Doug wrote ten tracks on the new 13 track album, which includes three co-writes. This is Doug’s fourth, selfproduced album, delivered from his recording facility Shoo Fly Studios. www.dougbruce.com.au

A Grain of Salt THE bias factor in AFL football and politics is to compare a shark to a sardine. Hawthorn friends suggest Buddy Franklin a Judas, accepting Brian Lake’s Western Bulldogs to Hawthorn with the rock solid reason as “that’s totally different”. Leaving aside the consistent misuse of the word “totally”, therein lies the problem. A physical fall is a pain, an infection calls for antibiotics but a sick mind is ignored. We count our opinions, our desires even, as right and obvious clear thinking; others are no doubt misinformed. “I’ll say my piece. If they don’t listen and learn more fool them.” A dozen people all waiting anxiously to voice sounds reasons on the subject at hand, carrying through to gossip generally, bad mouthing, the faults of others big and small; never occurring to the speaker of his/her deficiencies, which we all have. The Grand Final is over, wrong opinions forgotten, the victors repeated, (“I told you Hawthorn would win! Didn’t I tell you?” “I don’t remember?”). Previous opinions reverted to an even start. “Men ever count their own desires as right; those who think different are fools”. Remember those Mad comics and Alfred E Neumans’ words of wisdom-”What, me Worry?”. Times

the response could be very nasty. *** TO Daniel Andrews: Sack the person who suggested a public holiday on GF Day...So engrossed in an episode of Midsomer Murders I missed the game.

Piners open well in Provincial PROVINCIAL

By IT Gully PINES starteded its season in Provincial cricket in strong fashion, beating Heatherhill by three wickets in the opening round of the season. The Piners have been the juggernaut of local cricket in the past three seasons, jumping from Sub District cricket to Provincial under the leadership of Ricky Ramsdale. On Saturday at Bruce Park, the new kids on the block sent the home side into bat after winning the toss. The Hills lost their first three wickets before the score had reached 20 and were six down before the score got to 60. Thankfully, Steven O’Donnell flew the flag for the Hills, helping his side get to 134 in its 40 overs. Matt Bishop was the only other player to score double figures with 25. Pines quick, Brett Remy, who has saddled up for yet another season, was superb with 2/6 from eight overs. The unlikely damager was part-time

off-spinner Jake Prosser, who snared 3/38. Pines had five former Langwarrin players in their team on Saturday (Ramsdale, Jeremy Weare, Prosser and recruits, Alex and Jarred Coad). In reply, the Piners got the runs with three overs to spare. Ramsdale top scored with 47, Harley Peace-Sterling made 31 and Weare was not out 23. Brett Maxwell was the best of the Hills’ bowlers with 4/46 from 10 overs. Long Island completed the expected and got the job done against Crib Point. The Magpies had a few players underdone, including Luke Herrington, who didn’t bowl a ball. Islanders skipper Simon Dignan was superb in his first game at his new club, scoring 30 and snaring 1/21 off seven overs. The Islanders batted first and made a modest 151 in its 40 overs. Scott Phillips top scored with 31 while Peter Connell made a solid contribution at the end of the innings with 24.

Glenn Barclay was the pick of the Magpies’ bowlers with 4/37 from ten overs, while Brad Davidson snared 3/35. In reply, opener Henry Dolphin top scored for the Magpies with 31 while new Crib Point coach Rob Hearn also batted well with 31. However, the Islanders’ bowling was tight and disciplined and the home side couldn’t break the shackles. In the end, Crib Point fell short of the target by 23 runs, despite having three wickets in hand and batting out their 40 overs. Baxter recruit Joe Rule made an immediate impression at his new club with an unbeaten 115 in his sides strong win against Moorooduc. Rule, who crossed from Heatherhill, belted eight fours and eight sixes in his knock, while at the other end, Dale Irving clubbed 55, including four sixes. The Ducs looked a big chance to get the total throughout their innings, however, fell 12 runs short (7/207). Sri Lankan speedster Chamika Sattambri was modest in his first

game for Baxter with 1/40 from eight overs. It was home grown Leigh Paterson with 3/27 from six overs who had the biggest impact with the ball for Baxter. Mornington got its season away to a flier with a solid 31 run win over rival Mt Eliza. Both clubs have recruited well over the summer, however, it was the reigning premiers, Mornington, that were able to pick up the win in the opening game off the season. The Doggies won the toss and batted first, scoring 8/162. Matt Foon top scored with 72 for the Dogs, while Lyle House took 5/47 for the Mounties with the ball. The Dogs then bowled out the Mounties in the 37th over for 131. Craig Entwistle top scored for his new club with 60, while Luke Popov and Brodie Symons picked-up 4/21 and 4/43 respectively. Peninsula Old Boys started their season just the way they wanted after an ordinary 2013/14, knocking over last year’s grand finalist, Sorrento. With some good recruiting over the

summer, including new coach Matt Hyden from Ballarat, the Old Boys were able to record a comfortable victory with one over to spare. Hyden scored 21 in the chase, Glenn Prendergast top scored with 33 and Callum Savio was left unbeaten on 22. At the beginning of the day, Sorrento was restricted to 7/136. Corey Harris, fresh from a switch from Mt Martha, top scored with 36 for the Sorras while Liam O’Connor hit 30. Tom Clark was also solid with 21. Skipper Nick Jewell didn’t play. In the final match, Langwarrin got the chocolates over Rye at Lloyd Park. Kangas coach Mark Cooper made 48 and Andy Johnson an unbeaten 74 in the total of 4/174. In reply, the Demons were rolled for 117. Dwayne Doig was the best of the bowlers with 3/27, Adrian Mack snared 2/6 from seven overs in his return, Matt Prosser picked-up 2/19 and Jake D’Artri 2/33 from ten overs.

Hastings go down to glamour side DISTRICT

By IT Gully HASTINGS went down to the new glamour side of District cricket, Seaford, in the opening round of the season. Despite winning the toss and batting first, the Blues were never able to get settled, scrambling to an uncompetitive total of 8/116 in its allotted 40 overs. Skipper Tim Birch, as he so often does, worked tirelessly for his unbeaten 33, while teenager Archie Lawler-Lobato impressed in his first senior game for the Blues with 22. Lawler-Lobato scored 219 runs in Hastings’ Under 16s last season with a highest score of 99 and 63 in the winning Grand Final. Daniel Esler was another new face for the Blues opening the batting with 15, crossing from Balnarring in the offseason, while 17-year-old Matt Foy also opened the innings with 17. The total was never going to be enough for the Blues. Andy McMannis snared three wickets for Seaford in his return game, while Paul Hartle picked up two wickets in his return and Dil Pageni contributed with two wickets too after crossing from YCW. In reply, Seaford got the total with 15 overs to spare. Nick Simpendorfer hit 37 in his comeback game, Faisal Payenda scored 24 in his return and Hartle was not out for 23. Mitch Floyd was the pick of the Hastings’ bowlers with 2/36. Last year’s District grand finalists, Delacombe Park, started its new season in blistering fashion against Boneo in a high scoring game. Boneo batted first at the small, run friendly Delacombe ground and scored more than five runs an over in their 40 overs, scoring 8/215. Ben Brittain was the best of the home side bowlers, helping himself to 4/31 from eight overs. When it came time to chase down the total, it was Ben’s brother and skipper Chris Brittain who did the damage.

Despite Jon Guthrie making just six runs, the score was on 60 when Brittain came in to bat. At the other end was Nick Christides, who had already hit a half century. He finished with 69. Brittain then went to work with Joel Malcolm and together they got within seven runs of the total. Malcolm eventually went for 35, however, Brittain went on to hit an unbeaten 100 to help his side get to 4/226 with two overs to spare. Red Hill had a successful start to its District season with a win against Somerville. The Hillmen made 6/191 batting first, Riley Shaw top scoring with 55 and former Melbourne player Laurie Heath opening with 43. In reply, Somerville was restricted to 8/177. Brent Martin was the best of the Hillmen’s bowlers with 4/54. Main Ridge cruised to victory against a less than ordinary Flinders. The Ridge sent the Sharks into bat first and rolled them for just 50. Shane Beggs top scored for Flinders with 23. There were five players out for ducks. Jordan McCulley was superb for the Ridge with 5/16 from ten overs. In reply, the Ridge got the runs six wickets down in the 13th over. Gareth Wyatt top scored with 22. Seaford Tigers got the job done against Carrum, winning by 29 runs. The Tigers batted first and made 7/194, Ash Mills top scoring with 78. In reply, the Lions were bowled out for 165 in the 40th over. Dylan Steed top scored with 48, while Josh Dent made 45. David James was the best of the Tigers’ bowlers with 5/48. In the final game Mt Martha held on to beat Baden Powell. The Reds made a modest 108 with Alex Mason top scoring with 36. Nathan Gay took 5/19 off six overs for the Braves. Baden Powell could only manage 93 in reply after being 2/55 at one stage. Elia Carter opened with 45, while Brad Schreuder was the best of the Reds’ bowlers with 4/16 off 10 overs.

Jarryd Herbert returned to the Dales with 3/44 from 10 overs, while Dew and Kaine Smith picked-up two wickets each. ROSEBUD completed the expected and defeated TYABB. The Yabbies lost plenty of talent in the offseason, namely Luke Rus and Scott Didcock, and may struggle this season. The Buds went in without an injured Darren Kerr (eye) but still managed to bowl out the Yabbies for 148.The evergreen Jason Nagel was the pick of the Sharks’ bowlers with 5/17 from eight overs, including five maidens. In reply, Rosebud made the runs with five balls to spare. Jake Millar made the step up from the Second XI and made an immediate impact with 43 opening the batting.

Pat Beckham was superb with the ball for Skye with 3/5 from 10 overs, including six maidens.

By IT Gully BALNARRING made their intentions well and truly known in MPCA Sub District cricket on Saturday with an effortless victory against Dromana. Balnarring was extremely active in the recruiting stakes in the off season and the effort certainly had an impact in the opening game. The two openers in Peter Mereszko and Brad Watson were new faces, while David Ross and Ben King were also additions to the Saints’ lineup. Ross was the recruit who had the biggest impact, smashing 87 on debut, while Mark Walles top scored for Balnarring with 95. The tail also had some wag, which helped the home side to a highly competitive 8/280. The Hoppers were never in the contest, bowled out for 82 in 20 overs in their first innings and being sent in again. In the second innings, Dromana faced 14 overs and finished with 4/54. Mitchell Kleinig was the destroyer in the first innings for Balnarring with 7/36, while he took a wicket in the second innings also. Justin Brown took 3/19 off six overs in the first innings. It seems BALLAM PARK may be in for another tough season after being smashed by TOOTGAROOK. The Frogs batted first after being sent in and made 6/188 off 40 overs. Klint James top scored for the home side with 63 and Luke Thompson was unbeaten on 50. Mark Miller was the best of the Knights’ bowlers with 4/20. In reply, the Knights were bowled out for 67 in
