Swap shop VISITORS to a new pop-up shop at Karingal Hub are being encouraged to leave books on the shelf at The Book Hub, a book swap store.

The Book Hub opened in late April and has seen book lovers swap fiction, true life tomes and children’s books. Book swappers are able to browse before swapping second-hand books with comfortable seats in store to allow shoppers to take the weight off their feet.

“The response has been overwhelming with many customers donating countless books and genuinely excited about the space,” Karingal Hub marketing manager Bianca O’Neill said.

“We’ve received numerous comments by phone, in person and through Facebook from customers expressing their appreciation for such a ‘brilliant’, ‘awesome’ and ‘lovely’ idea.”

The Book Hub is supported by The Village Baxter and Mums Supporting Families In Need who contributed books to begin the book swap collection on the shelves.

The Book Hub is at Karingal Hub, 330 Cranbourne Rd, Karingal, Shop 16 (Opposite Soul Pattinson Chemist) and is open Monday to Sunday, 10am-4pm. Donated books can be added to shelves or handed in to centre management.

Conduct report ‘leak’ probe Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au AN alleged leak of the findings of a councillor conduct panel hearing will be investigated by the Local Government Investigations and Compliance Inspectorate at the request of Frankston mayor Cr James Dooley.

The Times revealed last month that a Municipal Association of Victoria facilitated panel found deputy mayor Cr Colin Hampton (‘Councillor breached code’, The Times 20/6/16) breached

code of conduct clauses in the Local Government Act over the way he “angrily” spoke to two council employees in public at a developer hosted event to promote the $60 million Allure Bayside apartment project in November at The Deck bar last year.

A redacted version of the MAV panel report, omitting the names of some witnesses, was subsequently posted on council’s website after councillors voted at a public council meeting on 27 June to release the report (‘Conduct panel report released’, The Times 4/7/16).

When asked if he had requested an

external investigation into a leak of the report Cr Dooley said the Inspectorate is aware of the alleged leak.

“They already know about it and it’s a breach of the law,” he said.

“It’s exactly the same as stealing and breaches like this are slanted in a certain way.”

Cr Hampton, Cr Glenn Aitken and Cr Brian Cunial criticised “selective leaks” to the media at the June public council meeting before voting with fellow councillors to publicly release the report.

Cr Darrel Taylor also faced the MAV facilitated panel and allegations he

breached the Local Government Act by speaking at the November function on behalf of council were dismissed.

Any action by the Inspectorate will bring the number of investigations into Frankston Council matters up to at least three.

The Times understands the Local Government Investigations and Compliance Inspectorate will look into spending on street furniture in Wells St amid claims of a budget blowout.

In a separate matter, Cr Dooley confirmed at last month’s public council meeting that notes he and council CEO

Dennis Hovenden took at a December meeting with the Allure Bayside developer after the November function have been referred to an “appropriate authority” amid allegations, detailed in the conduct hearing report, that Cr Darrel Taylor was involved in the writing of a letter of complaint from the developer to council.

Cr Taylor denies the allegation and The Times understands the developer told council this month that the councillor did not draft the letter.

The Inspectorate refuses to comment on any ongoing investigations.

Sculpting art displays by the bay Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au SCULPTURES are set to be installed throughout Frankston as part of a council partnership with Sculpture by the Sea, a not-for-profit organisation based in Sydney.

Frankston Council will lease 10 sculptures to be placed on public display along the city’s foreshore and “popular public spaces�.

Sculpture by the Sea manages two annual free exhibitions of sculpture artworks at Bondi in Sydney and Cottesloe in Western Australia.

Council will lease the sculptures for public view across Frankston

from Sculpture by the Sea for $60,000 over three years plus installation costs. “Our city’s new sculpture collection will feature an eclectic series of works that the community is welcome to enjoy in picturesque locations, ranging from the waterfront to parks, community centres and libraries,� Mayor Cr James Dooley said.

The first three sculptures to be installed - Oushi Zokei Hexagonal

by Keizo Ushio, Mirage by Deirdre Mair and Harry Stitt and Intervention by Mike Van Dam - will find a home for three years at Beauty Park, Frankston Waterfront near the Yacht

Club and within sight of Frankston Life Saving Club. “This initiative makes art more accessible to the Frankston community. Sculptures will become an iconic attraction of Frankston and reach a new market of local, interstate and international visitors,� Cr Dooley said. “Frankston increasingly is a destination for arts and culture, with more than 163,000 people visiting the Arts Centre and 130,000 people visiting McClelland Sculpture Park and Gallery every year.�

Liberals’ Crewther gets over the line in Dunkley

Arts inspired: Manyung Gallery has moved and expended, with “boutique� gallery at Mt Eliza Village, one for larger pieces at Mornington and spaces at Malvern and Sorrento. Working with the exhibitions are, from left, Irina Agaronyan (Malvern), co-director Sharyn Wemyss-Smith and Gillian Haig (Mt Eliza). Picture: Supplied

Manyung moves to the village AFTER 48 years, Manyung Gallery has moved from its original home in a faux Tuscan castle on Nepean Highway to a shop in nearby Mt Eliza Village.

In addition to this “boutique� gallery, directors David and Sharyn Wemyss-Smith have opened an art warehouse in Progress St, Mornington to house and display larger artworks. They also offer a mobile service, delivering artwork for on-site assessment at homes and offices.

The Wemyss-Smiths also have “art spaces� at Sorrento, and Malvern. “We’ve found more and more that people want a hero piece in their home accompanied by smaller complementary artworks. This space allows us to showcase artwork across a range of scales,� Sharyn Wemyss-Smith said.

“For us it’s about creating an experience for our visitors.

We aren’t selling a piece of artwork; we are providing joy and emotion through art. It’s really important that our clients are confident knowing that they can source the perfect artwork through us.� The new gallery at 60 Mt Eliza Way.

Indigenous art talk GUEST speakers from Mornington’s Baluk Arts will discuss the work of indigenous artists on the Mornington Peninsula at the July meeting of Southern Women’s Action Network at the Mornington Library, 9.30am, Sunday 17 July. All welcome. Cost: $8 includes morning tea. Details: 59743879.

THE seat of Dunkley remains in Liberal Party hands by a narrow margin with Chris Crewther elected as its federal MP to represent the area in Canberra.

A 4.2 per cent swing to Labor with 77 per cent of votes counted by last Friday was not enough to overcome a 5.6 per cent margin held by retiring Liberal MP Bruce Billson at the 2013 federal election. “I am very humbled by the result achieved by the Liberal Party in Dunkley and would like to thank the community for the honour and responsibility they have placed upon me by electing me as their representative in the Australian Parliament,� Mr Crewther said in a statement. “I want to place on record my sincere thanks to retiring Member for Dunkley, Bruce Billson. Bruce is a unique character in Australian politics, deeply passionate about his electorate and, more broadly, small business and the important role it has to play in Australia. Few have championed their electorate and worked harder for it than Bruce, he leaves massive shoes to fill. I also thank him for his mentorship and assistance throughout this long campaign.�

Mr Crewther acknowledged the campaign of Labor opponent Peta Murphy and pledged to “work hard for the people of Dunkley� to ensure it “remains a great place to live so local families can build for the future with confidence�.

He thanked volunteers and supporters who had pitched in during the

eight-week election campaign to get him over the line in Dunkley.

On her Facebook page last week Ms Murphy thanked “the incredible group of people who have been involved in our campaign, who knocked on doors, made calls, stood outside train stations and spent a long cold day handing out How To Vote cards on Saturday [election day]. Your efforts made a huge difference and you should be incredibly proud. I am forever grateful. “Thank you also to the people of Dunkley and the community, sporting and professional groups I have had the pleasure of speaking to and working with during the last 18 months.�

She said she is “looking forward to continuing to serve this community that I love� despite the election result.

Dunkley was one of several marginal seats where the result was not decided on election night but the Liberal Party was confident it would hold the seat (‘Liberals declare victory,’ The Times 4/7/16).

Australia still awaits the result of a handful of seats across the nation to determine whether the Coalition government will be returned to government. Malcolm Turnbull is likely to remain Prime Minister with the Coalition poised to win at least the minimum 76 seats needed to form majority government.

Three independent MPs have confirmed they would back a Coalition government in a minority government if it falls short of the 76 seats needed in its own right.

SOLITAIRE Hoodie, balaclava: The men police wish to talk to regarding the Cranbourne Rd 7-Eleven robbery.

Gun, sledgehammer used in robbery THREE men in a black Kia Soul wagon used a handgun and a sledgehammer to rob the 7-eleven store in Cranbourne Rd, Frankston, 5.20am, Sunday 3 July.

Two men entered the store with the weapons, Detective Sergeant Al Hanson, of Frankston CIU, said, while the driver waited outside.

The man with the handgun approached the counter, pointed it directly at the attendant and demanded money. The second man then smashed the glass counter top with the sledgehammer and demanded cigarettes.

The attendant handed over cash and cigarettes and the men ran outside, jumped in the car, and were driven away.

Anyone who has information is urged to call Detective Hanson, 9784 5590.

Boy, 12, behind the wheel STARTLED bystanders dialled Triple 000 when they saw a 12-year-old boy driving a Ford Ranger utility along Cranbourne Rd, Frankston, 3.30pm, Saturday 2 July.

The Seaford boy – who “could hardly see over the steering wheel” – ran three red lights putting himself and other road users in danger.

The car was later found dumped in Nepean Hwy, Seaford.

Detective Acting Sergeant Ryan Collins, of Frankston CIU, said the boy was remanded in custody Monday night and later charged with theft of a motor car and conduct endangering serious injury. He was bailed to appear at a children’s court next month.

His 14-year-old passenger was also charged with theft of a motor car, as well as committing an indictable offence while on bail. He appeared at a children’s court Wednesday morning and was remanded to appear at a later date.

Bail on robbery charges A FRANKSTON man has been charged with robbery and attempted robbery after demanding money at two Frankston stores, Thursday 30 June.

The man, 29, is alleged to have entered a photography business in the Bayside shopping centre

and demanded cash, saying he was carrying a gun. When the shop assistant said no cash was kept on the premises as customers paid by credit card, the man left. The man is then alleged to have entered a bakery in Young St and demanded cash, again saying he was carrying a gun. He was allegedly given $200 before walking off north along Young St. The man was bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court in September.

Spinal injuries after chase

Building? Bring in your house plans for a FREE estimate

A MAN was taken to Frankston hospital with spinal injuries last week after the car in which he was a passenger crashed while allegedly speeding away from police, Monday 4 July.

Frankston’s CIU Sergeant Duncan McGorrory, of the Shadow Taskforce, said the man and a woman, known to police, were spotted in a stolen Holden Calais in Skye Rd, Frankston, 3pm. The woman, 29, of no fixed address, who was driving, was already on bail on theft of motor car charges.

When police jumped out to intercept the pair, they sped off and turned sharply onto the wrong side of Karingal Drive before crashing into a parked car.

The man, 24, of no fixed address, was not wearing a seat belt. He was thrown head first into the windscreen, receiving spinal injuries.

Arrested at the scene, the woman was charged with theft of a motor car, evading police, and conduct endangering life. She was remanded to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on 30 August.

The man was charged with theft of a motor car, possessing a quantity of the drug ice, and various traffic offences, and remanded to appear on the same date.

Charges over placards

TWO men were caught tearing down election placards at a Frankston school early on polling day.

A Frankston man, 32, and a Botanic Ridge man, 45, were spotted by security patrols replacing Liberal Party placards with Labor Party placards at Karingal Heights Primary School, Havana Cres, 5am, Saturday 2 July. The men were taken to Frankston police station and charged with theft of a political polling booth placard. They were released on summons to face court at a later date. There were reports of signs also being removed from outside John Paul College around the same time.

Bay ‘rescue’ is Killers return to seals’ island home fuel for rivalry Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au VICTORIAN Marine Rescue Mornington president Tim Warner returned from a six-week holiday last weekend just in time for an emergency callout in the bay off Safety Beach.

His crew quickly set out for an area 100 metres off the marina – only to find they were “rescuing” the Safety Beach Coast Guard boat, which had run out of fuel.

Now, anyone with an insight into the rivalry between two of the state’s peak marine rescue bodies will understand the sensitivity of that situation.

“Yes it was a rather unusual call,” Mr Warner said, stifling a grin. “We have a rather interesting relationship but it was all handled with good grace.

“When we realised who they were we just treated it as a training run.”

Coast Guard commodore Mark Brookes said the incident was “not a rescue”.

“We’d had a motor change-over and the fuel gauges had not been calibrated correctly, so they showed we were full when we weren’t,” he said. “These things happen from time to time.”

The two groups had scheduled a get together on Sunday afternoon to socialise and discuss the coming season’s activities.

Mr Warner said the VMR was the busiest rescue service in the state, with two boats on Port Phillip and one on Western Port all year.

“We perform 235 police-activated rescues a year,” he said. “And if you take out the quiet times – such as midwinter – we can be out on the bays six or seven times a weekend.”

Often VMR crews are called to rescue sick seals or penguins. “People look up marine rescue and our number comes up,” Mr Warner said.

“One weekend over summer we had two calls for sick seals at Mt Eliza and Sorrento.”

Mr Warner said boat users, or their worried families, should call 0419 233 999 as soon as they fear for their own or someone else’s safety.

“If dad says he’s going fishing and will be back at 4pm, people should call us straight away if they don’t hear from him so we can start the search immediately,” he said.

“We would prefer to start an emergency search at 4pm rather than the family waiting until 9pm to call us and then having to start searching in the wet and cold.

“We don’t mind if we find dad happily fishing. We treat false alarms as good training.”

Mr Warner has served the VMR for 37 years, including three terms as president.

A POD of killer whales has caused excitement among wildlife watchers off Flinders and Phillip, although its arrival is probably not so welcome by the inhabitants of Seal Rocks.

Known as the ocean’s apex predator, the killer whales, or orcas, were first seen by tour operator Wildlife Coast Cruises about 11am on 4 July.

The Dolphin Research Institute’s David Donnelly said the news quickly spread with “eager whale watchers converging on the location, but you had to be quick as the pod was clearly on a mission”.

“Shortly after arriving the killer whales quickly went about investigating the local Australian fur seal colony. It wasn’t long before onlookers were treated to the sight of the apex predators throwing prey - likely to be a seal - into the air, tail slapping and breaching.”

Mr Donnelly said a photo taken by Robyn Raven of Phillip Island confirmed that one of the killer whales was “a very well-known individual affectionately known as Split Fin”.

“Split Fin has been known to the east Australian photo identification catalogue since 2003,” he said.

“Her very distinctive dorsal fin makes Split Fin easily recognisable at sea. The fin has a large vertical split through the centre, causing it to flop to the left. The cause of the disfiguration is believed to be from an interaction with a boat propeller.”

Mr Donnelly said the killer whales moved off to the west about an hour later, “passing two humpback whales on the way”.

Photographer Matt Burgess reported seeing the same killer whales

Univited visitors: Members of a pod of killer whales patrolling off Seal Rocks are known to regular whale watchers. Picture: Robyn Raven. Left, seals are wary of entering familiar while the killers are about. Picture: Keith Platt

near West Head, Flinders.

“You never know what the ocean will serve up. One minute I was shooting waves, the next 10-15 killer whales swam past,” he said.

“I’ve never seen one before, it was amazing.”

The pod was last seen swimming through the Mushroom Reef marine sanctuary toward Cape Schanck.

Mr Donnelly said the same pod of killer whales was identified near Phillip Island on 27 December 2015.

“Killer whales are technically not whales, they are in fact the largest species of dolphin. They can be found in all of the world’s oceans from the equator to the polar ice caps.”

LETTERS Tireless devotion I was very saddened to read that City Life would cease operations due to losing its existing physical location. This should concern Frankston residents as City Life staff and volunteers spend inordinate hours feeding and caring for our most vulnerable.

In a world where life is so fast paced nowadays, it is easy to forget that there are people doing it hard. Yet Frankston was fortunate as City Life was able to fill a void that government agencies could not; providing genuine compassion to locals in the form of meals, supplies, clothing and countless other services.

The founders of City Life (and past Citizens of the Year) Mark and Sue Whitby should be congratulated for the passion they have tirelessly devoted during their years of service. They should rest with the comfort of knowing that they have saved, and turned around, many lives.

I must admit that I do have trouble fathoming why a five-year process for finding City Life a new home has ended in utter failure.

Frankston City Council has had plenty of time to engage the local business networks and philanthropic sources to cover rental alternatives at various sites throughout central Frankston. Likewise the state government, under both Liberal and Labor stewardship, has had this same period of time to prioritise meaningful funding to allow City Life to have an ongoing physical presence in central Frankston.

This outcome is unacceptable and all levels of government ought to work together in a more deliberate fashion to ensure precious organisations such as City Life are not denied necessary assistance in the future. I thank all City Life staff and volunteers for their dedication and passion. You deserved much better than this outcome.

Wrong. I’ve yet to come across a Pauline aficionado, but if you happen to visit the Rye RSL ask for me at reception. I thought this fear, this secret city stuff, was all down to Tony Abbott.

As for Princess Pauline (“I’d have rocks in my head to actually go back and do it again”) we can assume the rocks have long gone. The question is, what has replaced them?

One wonders about our former prime minister John Howard and his belief in “the intelligence of the Australian people”? Then again Greg [Hunt] got back in; no surprises there. So much for my Arts Party.

Nothing but flowers A floral display has replaced the former war memorial in front of the Frankston Council offices in Davey St. A new war memorial at Beauty Park was built earlier this year and will host future Anzac Day ceremonies. Picture: Gary Sissons Ramps not high flying flyovers, each ramp set will be specifically designed to effectively feed the required street format.

The greenery should support Mother Nature’s cooling cycle and fresh water cycles. Definitely not supportive of bush fires, which are currently moving into urban areas across many countries.

In hot weather a good choice of undergrowth will raise the local humidity, oak varieties are protected by corky bark which is fire resistant.

railway tracks by a modest amount so that the cutting produced will have the existing road level finish close to the windowsill level of the trains in an ideal situation. Most railway noise is produced by the running gear and steel track; the shape of the cutting will direct this noise straight upwards instead of around the streets causing considerable window rattling.

This will make it possible to lower the overhead gear an appreciable amount, at the actual crossings. This in turn opens the possibility incorporating a short length of ground level ‘tunnel’. In appearance rather like the tunnels through the Alps, in construction approach similar to London’s first sewer main. In this case London’s red bricks will be replaced by precast concrete pipe sections. With the Alpine Mountains being constructed more like little hillocks as required principally from the material removed from the cutting exercise, with a good layer of topsoil provided of course.

The crossing roads will be in the form of

Down to earth result Amazing how the results of an election can bring you down to earth. I’ve always thought most Australians (in fact the world over) were not the brightest in matters political, but with the likes of Pauline Hanson I was certain only those permanent residents of Lah Lah Land would give her a tick, particularly with her policies of “corrupt” climate science, Islam, and wanting to ban the burqa.

I’m sure Monty Python must have written the script for Malcolm Turnbull’s reasoning to call a double dissolution of our parliament. After a toxic election campaign by both old parties Australia has ended up with an even more fractured government than before the election.

And still, both sides of the out of touch old parties are trying to convince us that all is well as long as they keep doing the same as they did for the last decades.

Somebody once said that to keep doing the same thing over and over without getting a different outcome borders on insanity. So isn’t it time our old parties started listening to the ordinary folk and new ideas of alternative parties to start changing the fate of the planet to a more sustainable direction? Humanity’s future prospects are surely more important than the greed of a few corporations and super rich individuals.

Tax time IT’S

The ATO has released its latest benchmarks for small business based on the data from 2014 income tax returns and business activity statements.

Assistant commissioner Matthew Bambrick said the benchmarks, based on information from 1.3 million small businesses, was that they gave “a lot of small businesses peace of mind”.

“If a small business is inside the benchmark range for their industry and the ATO hasn't received any extra information that may cause concern, they can be confident that they probably won't hear from us," Mr Bambrick said.

"The business performance check tool on the ATO app also makes it quick and easy for small businesses to compare their own operations with industry benchmarks."

Mr Bambrick said the benchmarks were also a helpful guide for small businesses to see how they stack up against others in their industry.

“We know a lot of small businesses, advisors and industry associations use the benchmarks to gauge competitiveness, whether or not costs might be too high or profit margins too low,” he said. "Sometimes when a small business finds themselves outside the benchmarks for their

advertising feature

Benchmarks can help build small business industry it may be because they have more waste than their competitors or they're spending more on materials in comparison. Using the benchmarks as a guide, not only can they identify where they are slipping behind but also how they can improve and build their business.

"For example, one business told us how their accountant used the tailored benchmarks to work out that their expense to turnover ratio was higher than other businesses with a similar turnover. Using this information the business adjusted some of their inputs and how they were pricing their products. These changes resulted in an overall improvement in their performance."

Mr Bambrick said for some small businesses outside the benchmark range it could also simply

be a case of being incorrectly registered or the business intent changing since starting up.

"These types of small administrative errors can be easily fixed by checking the previous year's tax return to see which business industry code was used and then updating it in the next return and on the Australian Business Register," Mr Bambrick said.

While the benchmarks are a helpful guide for small business, Mr Bambrick said it was one of several tools the ATO uses to ensure a “level playing field”.

"We use tools like benchmarks and data matching to protect honest businesses from competitors who are trying to get ahead by avoiding their tax obligations."

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Eclipse of the sun forecast in July Compiled by Melissa Walsh PHENOMENA of the Sky. What is called an annular or ring, like an eclipse of the sun, will occur on the morning of the 30th of July. It will commence at two minutes past eleven. Nearly 94 per cent of the sun’s disc will be covered by the dark body of the moon.

To persons living on a slightly curved line extending down from the head of Spencer Gulf in South Australia down through the neighborhood of Hopetoun and Colac in Victoria, crossing Bass Strait, near the Eastern end of King Island to Davenport and Hobart in Tasmania, it should be a splendid sight if the day is clear.

To persons living a little east and west of this line it will appear as a partial eclipse. Had the moon been a little closer the earth, we would have had a total solar eclipse, one of the grandest and most impressive sights to be seen in nature. At the time of the eclipse the moon will be about 251,300 miles from the earth, which is very nearly her maximum distance.

Owing to this the moon’s shadow will not reach the earth, but will fall short of its centre by approximately 16,300 miles. Accurate measurements have shown that the diameter of the moon is 2,170 miles, the diameter of the earth being 7,912 miles, and it follows that the earth is as large as 49 moons.

It has been determined by careful watching that the moon travels at about three-fifths of a mile each sec-

ond and is kept in her orbit by the attraction of the earth, just as the earth is held in its orbit by the attraction of the sun. The earth travels round the sun at a velocity of 181 miles a second. Were this centrifugal force to be destroyed, she would begin to fall towards the earth and in four days twenty-one hours she would crash into the earth when travelling at about seven miles a second.

It is thought by some that the moon originally became detached from the earth from where the Pacific Ocean now is. No traces of air or water have been discovered on her surface, which has a very rugged and broken appearance. Huge craters can be distinctly seen through a telescope, also mountains and plains. No traces of animal or vegetable life have been detected, and it is believed that not withstanding her beauty, she travels through space a dead world. *** THE many friends of Mr John E. Jones, Shire Secretary, will regret to hear that he is still confined to his room with a severe attack of influenza. *** A MEETING of committee and stall holders of the Mechanics Institute Allies’ Fair will be held on Tuesday next, 18th inst, at 3 p,m., at the Institute. Stall holders and assistants are specially requested to be present. *** THE annual meeting of the Frankston Branch of the Red Cross will be held in the Mechanics Institute on Wednes-

day evening next, July 19th, at 8 p.m., when the election of officers for the ensuing year will take place. A good attendance is requested. *** THE monthly meeting of the Somerville Fruitgrowers’ Horticultural and Agricultural Association will be held on Monday next, July 17th, at the Mechanics’ Institute, at 8 p.m., when the report of the Port Fairy conference ; cooperative movement by Mr Gregory and other business will be dealt with. *** A GRAND football match will be played on the local ground, on Saturday, 22nd July, between teams selected from the Brunswick A.N.A., and Naval Base and Langwarrin Camp combined. To make the day a success, a dance will probably be held in the evening, of which particulars will be given next issue. *** THE following is the balance sheet of the “ Wattles “ Club dance held on June 17, 1916, in aid of the Langwarrin Recreation Hall :—Receipts, Sale of tickets, £3, cash taken at door, £3 0s 6d; total. £6 0s 6d. Expenditure, rent of hall, £1 ; printing, 9s ; donation to Langwarrin Recreation Hall, £4 11s; postage, 6d ; total, £6 Os 6d. *** WELCOME to Soldiers. Frankston still retains its reputation for entertaining soldiers. On Saturday last about 200 sick and convalescent soldiers were entertained at the Mechanics’ Hall. This being the hundredth

trip of the kind it was made a special occasion.

Lady Stanley, accompanied by Capt. Connant, A. D. C. Dr Edith Barratt, Dr Bird and Miss Robinson were among the party. The hall was crowded to its utmost capacity and the reading room, which had been arranged as a lounge had to he brought into requisition.

Everything was a huge success from beginning to end and the soldiers and those who accompanied them did not stint their compliments and the remark was passed in more places than one, that it was the best time they had had since leaving England.

The Wattles Club certainly know how to entertain soldiers and as plenty of time had been at their disposal to make arrangements, nothing was left undone that should have been done to make the afternoon the profound success it was. The day was not all that could be desired as far as weather was concerned, but was not wet enough to damp the ardour of the Wattles Club, who spent Friday evening and Saturday morning in preparing the hall etc. *** UNVEILING of the portrait of the late Mrs Hall - Dr Plowman in performing this ceremony at the State School on Arbor Day, said that it was peculiarly appropriate that the portrait was unveiled and presented to the Hastings State School on that day.

A few friends of the late Mrs Hall thought that the best way of keeping the memory of Mrs Hall green

amongst them was by the presentation of her portrait to the school, and by hanging it upon the school wall.

The late Mrs Hall had in the past been most active in promoting any movement having for its object the promotion of the good and welfare of Hastings. It might be remembered by only a few present but it was a fact, that many years ago Mrs Hall took a leading part in securing the establishment of a State School at Hastings, and in 1872 laid the foundation stone of a building which still constitutes a part of the existing school. Furthermore, Mrs. Watt, her daughter, had taught for years in the school, and was the present correspondent. Speaking of the personal qualities of the deceased, Dr Plowman said that he had had the privilege of having known her intimately for 20 years and the more he had seen of her the more he had admired her character, which was, in the fullest acceptation of the term, of a good and God fearing woman. She always possessed and preserved to the end the inestimable gift of charity. She never used an ungracious expression concerning anyone, and always strove to find extenuating circumstances for the most grievous offences. Her advanced years precluded of late any active part in local affairs, but the older members of those present would remember her good works. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 15 July, 1916

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

A Force awakens within me

By Stuart McCullough I WOULDN’T describe myself as a fanatic. At least, not compared to the guy a few doors down who drives the 1993 Subaru Legacy and has personalised ‘Star Wars’ number plates. (To be precise, I think it’s some voweldeprived variant. Good thing he’s not a fan of ‘The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants’ though.) It’s not as if I refer to ‘the Force’ in everyday conversation and I’ve never nominated ‘Jedi’ as my chosen religion on a Census form. Nor have I campaigned to have May the fourth recognised as an official public holiday. But, one way or another, Star Wars has been part of my life for almost forty years.

I was awestruck. From the day I saw the first instalment at the Burwood Drive In through the windscreen of a Nissan E-20 (eat your heart out, Imax), I was smitten with the whole intergalactic fairytale. Never again would I be able to see a piece of cardboard tubing and not view it in terms of a potential lightsaber. Dressing gowns would forever be Jedi robes and not merely the highly flammable overlay you wore between bath time and crawling into bed. It changed the way in which my generation viewed the world.

We enjoyed them for much longer than the two hours we spent in a darkened room at the local cinema, popcorn cooling at our fingertips and stray shards of choc-top spoiling our t-shirts. Those films were fodder for countless schoolyard discussions.

We recited the dialogue, imitated the voices and delighted each other by

recounting huge sections of the movies. Long before video, laser disc and DVD, we kept those films alive through living room re-enactments using figurines and whatever pots, pans or shoeboxes we deemed necessary to recreate the moment. These were both acts of artful invention and slavish mimicry. That was how we kept the stories close to us.

Just glancing at my Primary School photos is enough to tell you everything you need to know about my devotion to Star Wars – throughout my formative educative years, I stuck with the classic ‘Skywalker’ haircut. Those who were first to see ‘Empire’ carried with them the weight of a cinematic secret that would remain unrivalled until ‘The Crying Game’. By the time

‘Jedi’ rolled around, it was much more than just another film but a broader cultural event. Things were in such a state of turmoil after the second movie. We, as a planet, needed closure.

But the final instalment came and went and then…nothing. The franchise whose slogan was ‘the saga continues’ had come to a semi-satisfying conclusion complete with a glow-inthe-dark Alec Guinness and a song performed by Ewoks that sounded like something one of the smaller countries might perform at Eurovision. Primary school had come to an end and so too had Star Wars. George Lucas, the visionary who had succeeded in taking the world’s imagination hostage next gave us ‘Howard the Duck’ which, in reality, was a colossal intergalactic

turkey.

The next disturbance in the Force occurred sometime after I finished University, when the original films were remastered, returning to multiplexes everywhere. To watch them again was like travelling back in time. But then, in the late nineties, came news of three ‘prequels’. Better still, these new instalments were going to be filmed in Australia, leaving open the possibility that the Big Pineapple or Wobbies World might feature heavily in the battle scenes. But I didn’t go. I’d grown up and left Star Wars behind. As it happens, the reviews were less than kind. Jar Jar Binks did not so much polarise people as repel them outright; so much so that he might well have been a distant cousin of Howard the Duck.

It’s safe to say that when the guy a few doors down stuck his ‘Star Wars’ plates on his 1993 Subaru Legacy, he wasn’t thinking of Jar Jar Binks.

But a funny thing happened. I watched as my nephews grew to love those early films just as I had. And whilst they too were immune to the charms of Jar Jar Binks, they were desperate to see each instalment.

Eventually I succumbed, agreeing to take them to the third and final prequel as a result of a compelling review that claimed it wasn’t as bad as the other two. My eldest nephew dressed as Darth Vader for the occasion, which is a great way to ensure prompt service at kiosk. No one wants to keep the Lord of Darkness waiting for popcorn.

No one.

Despite this, I was nonplussed when I heard about the most recent instalments. I attended a screening both with misgivings and my nephews, but as the lights went down, something happened. From the first strain of the main theme, I was dragged back to a world I thought I’d long left behind. Despite myself, I enjoyed it immensely. Childhood, I think, is not just something you live but something you carry. And it can be a sweet, sweet thing to be transported back if only for a few hours. It’s not too late. Maybe there’s still time to get out the dressing gown and some cardboard tubing.

Perhaps even convert an empty tissue box into the Millennium Falcon. The Force Awakens in me, at least for a little while. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Music  Arts  Food CHOCOLATE STARFISH with SWANEE & PALACE OF THE KING HIT THE HEIGHTS Chocolate Starfish, one of Australia’s most successful bands of the 1990s is back and sharing the stage with iconic rock singer Swanee & the hottest young rock band in the country Place of the King.

Chocolate Starfish released two albums in the 90’s both smashing into the ARIA Top 10 and received gold and platinum sales awards.

The band was also responsible for six Top 50 singles including the smash hits “You’re so vain” and “Mountain” (both ARIA Gold singles).

Starfish was Australia’s hardest working band in the ‘90s playing more than 700 gigs between 1993 and 1997, once doing 22 nights in a row.

In 1979 Swanee released the album “Into The Night”. His first commercial hit was in 1981 with his version of “If I Were A Carpenter” from the album “This Time Is Different” which featured two other hits, “Temporary Heartache” and “Lady What’s Your Name”.

In 1987 he joined the “Party Boys” as lead singer where he had more hits with “He’s Gonna Step on You Again” and then “Hold Your Head Up”.

Swanee is a true Australian rock icon who continues to tour national to this day.

Many doomsayers are writing rock’s obituary but if you think rock is dead, just check out Palace Of The King.

The ‘freight train’ metaphor may be overused and stale. But you’d be hard-pressed to find one that is better suited to a band that has played more than 300 shows all around Australia, Europe and America and released a mountain of music at such a prolific rate, all within three years of striking their first chord together.

The Sydney morning herald named them one of the top ten Australian bands you should be listening to in 2015.

As a special bonus Palace of the King will also be backing Swanee at these shows.

This young band is the real deal!

This unmissable event will be heading to Chelsea Heights Hotel on 29th July.

Get tickets at www.moshtix.com.au or call the venue on (03) 9773 4453.

Redlegs provide a spark PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt MT ELIZA has breathed some life into the MPNFL Peninsula Division competition with a comprehensive victory against Frankston YCW. The Redlegs put a stop to the 25game winning streak of the Stonecats, whose last loss coming into the clash was against Mornington in round seven last season.

After defeating Mt Eliza by almost 100 points at Wooralla Drive just six weeks ago, it appeared that the Stonecats would go through the season undefeated.

Just nine points separated the sides at the major interval before the visitors booted eight goals to two in the second hour to win 14.13 (97) to 7.8 (50).

Frankston YCW went into the match without prime movers including Ryan Santon, Kyle Hutchison, Byron and Anthony Barry and Brenton Credlin, many of whom were representing the VCFL in the Australian championships. Lachy Wallace and David Bodley returned.

Mt Eliza went into the match without star goal kicker Justin Van Unen, who has been asked by Essendon to play out the rest of the season in their reserves with a view of picking him up in the draft.

Mt Eliza coach Troy Shannon said while he supported ‘JV’ trying to better himself by playing a higher grade of football, he conceded he “wasn’t happy” with Essendon.

“I’ve spoken with Essendon a couple of times and they said they would only require Justin to play a few games to get a look at him,” Shannon said.

“Then they pick him this week in a really important game for us, which went against the conversations we’d had. It just annoys me that they would say one thing and do another.

“But don’t get me wrong, if the opportunity allows Justin to achieve his goals of playing at the top level, then I’m all for that,” Shannon said.

James Freeman, who is on Casey’s list, was outstanding once again for the Redlegs with six goals, while Tom Freeman was also dominant in his fifth club game for the year and first in the seniors.

Matt Lillie was superb in the ruck against Ash Eames and Jay Neratzoglou was solid down back. In more good news for the Redlegs, Matt Neratzoglou booted a bag in the reserves as he makes his way back from injury.

Craig Nankervis, Tony Lester and Sam Widdowson were the best of the Stonecats.

The win for Mt Eliza elevated them to second place on the ladder after Pines went down to EdithvaleAspendale.

Mark Meehan was again a star for the Eagles with six goals while Will Flavelle and Timmy Mannix were superb across four quarters with a couple of goals each.

Craig Wray and Jack Doman were two of the better players on the ground and Brendan Neville continues his superb 2016 form.

Beau Hendry was Pines’ best player and combined well in the middle with Chris Guganovic while Aaron Edwards and Guy Hendry booted three goals each. There’s no doubt that the

Picture: Scott Memery

Pythons missed Tim Bongetti.

Bonbeach made it seven wins from its past eight games with a solid 11.10 (76) to 9.8 (62) victory against Mornington.

While coach Steve Hughes believes his side is “still a way off the top three”, he conceded that his team was building week after week.

“We are a hard working team that just grinds out wins at the moment. I think there is still some daylight between the top teams and us,” Hughes said.

11 July 2016

“I still don’t think we are playing our best footy but individuals and the team are starting to play some more consistent footy.

“Josh Bull is doing a great job with the reserves also and they are playing really well, so there’s competition.”

Shane McDonald was again superb for the Sharks with five goals while Matt Douglas, Jackson Sole and Chris Bryan were outstanding also.

Joel and Warwick Miller were Mornington’s best.

Karingal recorded a superb 18.11

(119) to 10.12 (72) victory over Chelsea on Saturday on a day that the 1996 premiership team celebrated its 20th anniversary.

The Bulls opened the game with five goals to one with Harry Czarnecki on fire with three goals to set up the victory.

Aaron Paxton, Leigh Poholke and Chris Hay all booted four goals each for the Bulls while Michael Burke was the best player on the ground.

Zac Graham and Todd Gardiner were the best of the Gulls.

Seaford booted 11 goals to two in the opening term against Langwarrin and went on to win 17.12 (114) to 9.4 (58).

It was one of Langwarrin’s worst defeats of the year, struggling with the confines of the Seaford Rd oval.

Aaron Walton starred for the Tigers with six goals while Curtis Murfett and Nick Brand with four goals dominated.

Nick Tuddenham and Zac Andrewartha were the best of the Kangas.

Club legend Daniel Wehner played in the reserves.

Marsten was another who disappointed.

Ryan Potter, Danny Stephenson and Jarryd Ferguson were Sorrento’s best – they played like their life depended on winning.

Generally, Sorrento has had it too good for too long, however with the likes of Jon Croad, Troy Schwarze, Leigh Poholke, Myles Pitt and Daniel Grant no longer around, it means some deficiencies that were once “bandaided” are now being exposed.

Sorrento’s best is still good and for three and a half quarters on Saturday they were in with a sniff, however when things got tough, generally they went missing.

Red Hill continues to amaze, smashing Hastings by 26 points, 16.9 (105) to 12.7 (79).

The Hillmen were blown away in the first quarter, conceding six of the first seven goals before booting 15 to six after the first break.

By Toe Punt SOMERVILLE is back in the MPNFL Nepean Division premiership race after a superb four quarter performance against Sorrento.

Backs against the wall and staring down the barrel of missing out on finals had they lost, it was all on the line for the Eagles.

Coach David ‘Budda’ Hirst put it on his players before the match that they needed to lift, especially some of the ‘big name’ players who had been horribly out of form.

Those players responded.

Ben Crowe was a match winner with five goals, Tim McGennis had more than 20 touches, Scott Simpson beat Nick Corp down back and Billy Rolfe was superb with three goals.

Somerville’s favourite son Ben Sedgewick was moved forward and responded with three goals and Jedd Sutton, who has had a sensational season, was best afield with five goals.

The Eagles dominated the opening quarter with 16 inside 50 metre entries to Sorrento’s seven, however they couldn’t convert their opportunities, leading by just six points at the first break despite having six more scoring shots.

Somerville always had the answers though, thanks to the likes of Josh Westerman, Steve Crowe and Rowan Hogenbirk, who provided the grunt in the team.

Youngsters Luke Burton, Josh McMahon and the best of all the kids, Luke Collie, were also cool under pressure.

Sorrento continued to come at the Eagles until midway through the third quarter, when Somerville took full control.

Sorrento’s lack of accountability when they didn’t have the ball was a concern, especially from the likes of Tyrren Head and skipper James Hallahan in defence. Both players are superb when the team is in possession of the footy but unaccountable and disrespectful of the opposition when they don’t have it.

There are also some players who are arguably at the back end of their careers, especially on Saturday’s performance. The likes of Trevor Mattison, Brent Kenyon (who equalled the club record of 262 senior games), Benny McCormack and Guy Stringer have been ornaments to the club and the MPNFL but it’s a young man’s game and

As a club, Red Hill should be very proud – they have a wonderful netball program, their Under 19s are on top of the ladder, their reserves are second after losing 20 players in the off season and their seniors continue to defy the odds and are sitting in third place.

The Hillmen have no superstars in their side, when you consider some of the other teams in the competition and the money being spent to secure them.

I would bet that Red Hill would be paying half as much money as the top spending teams in the competition.

However, despite these facts, they continue to win games of football with a very even, balanced, hard working group.

They play for one another and as coach Tony Blackford continues to say, they “play to their strengths”.

“We understand that we don’t have big targets in attack and superstars of the competition,” Blackford said.

“But what I’m really proud of is that we have a group that is prepared to listen, work hard, carry out instruction and play our brand of football.

“That’s all I ask. We prepare well, we respect our opposition, and we do our best to play the way we want to play.

We continue to prove that our best is good enough to beat anyone.

“In saying that, it’s a tough competition and there are dangerous sides throughout it. If you’re not at your best, you’ll get beaten,” Blackford said.

On Saturday, Harry Larwill and the slight Jono Ross booted four each while Benny Poole and Sean ‘Steve’ Marchetti were superb through the middle of the ground.

Jonah Siversen was the best player on the ground. Seamus Thompson played his 100th senior game after starting his career at the age of 29. What a great competitor.

Nick Gray was named Hastings’ best, while Luke Hewitt and Matt Clifford were outstanding early.

Rye kept its finals aspirations alive with a 15.18 (108) to 10.13 (73) victory over Pearcedale.

The Demons booted 12 goals to eight after half time with Nathan Henley at his brilliant best with six goals and Jack Nisbet and Ryan Mullett working well together at the centre bounces and around the ground.

Troy Jacobson is a star and he finished with four goals for the Dales while Kallum Searle’s good form continued.
