Dog attacked A VICIOUS dog attack at Ballam Park is being investigated by Frankston Council. Maria was walking her elderly mother’s dog when it was set upon by two aggressive animals, possibly bull mastiffs, owned by a “hostile” couple. The attack occurred in an off-leash area and Maria is worried a child or person could be attacked by the dogs in future. Picture: Gary Sissons

Dog mauled in park attack Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au A VICIOUS dog attack that left a dog owner with a $200 vet’s bill is being investigated by Frankston Council. Maria, who did not want her surname published, was walking her elderly mother’s dog in Ballam Park at about 5pm on Saturday 19 July when it was set upon by two aggressive dogs, possibly bull mastiffs, in front of the Long Island Cricket clubhouse. Maria said the attack was “completely unprovoked”. “My mother’s dog is a 14-year-old

German short haired pointer dog with a very docile temperament,” she said. The aggressive dogs were being walked in the off-leash area by a man and woman who “were very reluctant to call off their dogs”, according to Maria. “I yelled and screamed when it looked like the dogs were coming in for the kill.” She claimed the male dog walker tried to “intimidate” her, “smelled of alcohol” and carried “a huge pole which could have been used as a weapon”. After the attack, Maria said the owners of the dogs “were very hostile and

is only so much they can do”. Maria said other dog owners should be made aware of the “irresponsible” couple since they displayed no remorse even after her mother’s dog was bleeding from its neck. “I’ve asked the council to increase monitoring by their rangers, particularly during weekends which tends to attract walkers who are not necessarily locals, as I’ve never seen them or their dogs here before.” The latest incident was the second time her mother’s dog has been mauled in Ballam Park this year. Maria said she was worried a child could be

refused to give me their details”. She described the male dog owner as being about 168 centimetres tall with short brown hair cut very short on the sides and longer on the top. He wore a red weather proof jacket and light colour trousers. The female dog owner, about 162 centimetres in height, had shoulder length mousy brown hair colour tied in a ponytail and spoke with an accent. She wore a jumper and trousers. Frankston police told Maria to report the incident to Frankston Council after she called 000. She said the council’s park ranger had been helpful but “there

savaged since there are children’s playgrounds in the park. Frankston Mayor, Cr Darrel Taylor, said “the vast majority of dog owners who use Ballam Park are responsible owners who control their dogs and this is very pleasing” but confirmed council is investigating the attack on Maria’s mother’s pet. “Anyone who witnessed the attack in Ballam Park should contact council on 1300 322 322. Our officers are continuing to investigate and we have increased surveillance of Ballam Park.” There were 224 dog attacks reported to Frankston Council in 2013.

Rooming house control ‘weak’

Elderly man hit, killed by roadside AN elderly man was hit and killed by a car while standing next to his wife by the side of the Nepean Highway at Frankston on Thursday. Police said the elderly couple had been driving south on Nepean Highway before parking their vehicle opposite the beach near the bottom of Olivers Hill just before the incident occurred about 12.15pm. The man and woman were standing to rear of their car, possibly waiting to cross over the road, when a white Ford station wagon “veered off the road and struck the man”, police said. Their car, which was parked in a parking lane beside the highway, was also clipped by the vehicle. The man was thrown onto the bonnet and windscreen of the vehicle before landing on the road about 20 metres away. Paramedics arrived shortly after the incident and attempted to revive the man, but he was pronounced dead at the scene. The woman was not injured but was treated by ambulance paramedics for shock. The driver of the station wagon, a 31-year-old man, stopped at the crash

scene and is assisting police with their investigation. The highway was closed for more than five hours as major collision investigation unit officers assessed the crash site. Investigators have asked for anyone who witnessed the incident to contact police through Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or www.crimestoppersvic.com.au  Six days earlier, a 46-year-old woman was seriously injured in a hit and run incident after being struck while riding her bike on the Nepean Highway in Frankston. The 46-year-old woman was cycling south in the left hand lane of the highway about 10.55am on Friday 22 July when she was hit outside Dan Murphy’s liquor outlet between Ross Smith Ave and Wells St. Police said a Holden station wagon suddenly veered from the middle land

of the highway across her path causing her to collide with the side of the vehicle. “The driver then turned into the car park without stopping, before driving off towards Key St,” a police spokesperson said. “Bystanders attempted to chase the driver on foot but with no success.” The Frankston woman was taken to The Alfred in a serious condition with suspected spinal injuries. Detectives from the Frankston crime investigation unit investigating the incident have appealed for the driver involved to come forward. Witnesses described the vehicle as a late-model white Holden commodore station wagon. Anyone who witnessed the incident or who may have information on the whereabouts of the Holden or its driver is urged to contact Crime Stoppers. Chris Brennan

NEIGHBOURS frustrated and angry at the squalid living conditions and questionable behaviour of tenants at Frankston rooming houses have found there is little they – or the Frankston Council – can do about it. A 17-signature petition calling for a “review” of a rooming house at 17 Finlay St last week only served to remind councillors of their impotence in overseeing the planning and management of rooming houses under current state government legislation. The signatories – from Finlay and Taketa streets – have been advised there is no legislation to guide the council in dealing with the location or concentration of shared housing, and that local government has little control over its construction or operation. Community concerns over the management and location of rooming houses has been going on for years. The council claims to have “actively lobbied the state government through its local member, Consumer Affairs and the Minister for Health on this issue over a number of years”. The government has not taken up the council’s suggestion to amend the planning scheme and building code to ensure “appropriate” management of rooming houses.

An officer’s report to council on Monday 28 July said: “There are numerous state government policies and Acts that, combined, provide an effective way in which to minimise local government’s ability to ensure rooming houses are operated in the best interest of tenants and the neighbourhood alike. “The issue of rooming houses has been an ongoing area of concern to council and body of work for officers. It is considered that a change in state legislation is required.” In line with state government legislation: • The development at 17 Finlay Street as shared housing does not require a planning permit and issues associated with parking, landscape, rubbish collection, drainage, utility connections “and a potential decrease of liveability” could not be considered by the council [when the building was first mooted]. • Shared housing is “a reasonable land use within a residential zone”. It is common practice for rooming houses to be designed with less than 10 habitable rooms so they only require a building permit - often issued by a private building surveyor – and not a planning permit which would attract greater scrutiny. Two managers from council met the petitioners in mind-July to explain the regulations for shared housing. Continued Page 14

Skin cancer scare a life changing journey Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au WHEN Jay Allen discovered he had a melanoma skin cancer, it was a lifechanging moment. But the 39-yearold father of four is now glad he still has a life to change. Mr Allen and fellow skin cancer survivor Andrew Rust completed a charity walk from Sydney to Melbourne last week to raise money for the Melanoma Institute to fund melanoma cure research. Mr Allen shared his story at a talk at Frankston’s Peninsula Skin Cancer Clinic and told The Times the walk was part of his personal cancer survival journey. It was 2008 when the former truck driver noticed a mole on his left ankle had begun to “scab up and bleed when scratched”. Being a truckie he thought his work boots had been rubbing against the mole and dismissed it as a nothing much to worry about. Luckily, his wife Janine was not so blasé. She insisted he see a doctor after the “scab” did not heal after several months. Mr Allen was then stunned to discover his mole had developed into a skin cancer. A follow-up visit to a specialist and surgery to remove the leg melanoma confirmed the cancer had spread to lymph nodes in his groin. The moment Mr Allen was told the cancer had metasised was featured on Channel 9’s RPA TV show, filmed at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney. “It was a scary time and I was really worried when I was told the cancer

had spread to other parts of my body,” Mr Allen said. Sydney Melanoma Clinic plastic surgeon Dr Michael Quinn told Mr Allen that the survival rate for patients with advanced melanoma “is not very good” and sixty per cent would be alive within five years of diagnosis. Thankfully, the cancer had not spread further but Mr Allen had to wait several agonising weeks before being given the “all clear” after lymph

nodes in his groin were removed. After his cancer scare, Mr Allen decided to become involved in helping others deal with the confronting nature of melanoma diagnosis. He co-founded a patients’ support network for melanoma patients in Sydney and is now a full-time community campaign coordinator at the Melanoma Institute. “There’s no cure for advanced melanoma and I wanted to give something

back to those who had saved my life by also trying to raise as much money as possible for medical resources,” he said. “If the cancer came back, I didn’t want to die alone after years of driving a truck.” A support crew of nine supported Mr Allen and Mr Rust in their 900 kilometre walk in 15 days from Sydney to Melbourne. The duo’s efforts have raised more than $150,000 for

research to hopefully find a cure for advanced melanoma. Mr Allen said the pair had been “rapt” at the support shown by everyone they met on their long walk that ended at the MCG during the halftime break of the AFL game between Hawthorn and Sydney on Saturday 26 July. Motorists “honked their horns” in support and many stopped to chat and donated money along the way. The Peninsula Skin Cancer Clinic in Frankston donated $5000 to the campaign and performed 900 skin checks, one for each kilometre Mr Allen and Mr Rust walked, in the fortnight. “Jay and Andrew’s walk has really helped raised awareness of the importance of early detection in the prevention of melanoma,” PSCC melanographer Sue Dixon said. Ms Dixon said 18 melanomas had been detected in the 900 skin checks they performed, adding to the average annual total of 300 melanomas detected at the centre each year. Mr Allen thanked Ms Dixon and staff at the PSCC for their support. “It’s so important for people to get their skin checked out at a proper skin clinic at least once a year,” he said. “I would never have had my leg looked at if my wife hadn’t nagged me about it and saved my life.” Mr Allen said his wife’s “nagging” was a perfect example of the truth of the saying: “Happy wife, happy life.” See www.peninsulaskincancercentre.com.au for skin check details and www.everydayhero.com.au/ event/900KMFORACURE2014 to donate money for melanoma cure research.

Wearing a way to work success PREPARING for a job interview can be nerve wracking, especially for those who may have been out of work for a lengthy period of time. Dress for Success Mornington Peninsula has reopened its doors in Frankston to help unemployed women return to employment. The not-for-profit organisation relies on donations and grants to offer specialised advice on how to dress for success at job interviews. They can even provide business attire. General manager Helen McLean said Frankston Council had helped relocate the Dress for Success boutique from Keys St after a flood there to Bayside Shopping Centre. She said Dress for Success had helped more than 3000 women and school leavers over six years find work by improving their job-readiness and interview skills. “Our mission is to help the long-term unemployed and socially disadvantaged have the confidence to get back to work,” Ms McLean said. Clients are referred to Dress for Success from agencies such as Centrelink. Ms McLean said “mock interviews” prepared job applicants for the real thing. The organisation was forced to shut its Rosebud office last year due to a lack of funds. Ms McLean said donations of business clothes or money were vital and appreciated. Dress for Success still offers support for peninsula clients and often visit peninsula schools to give careers advice. The Dress for Success boutique is now open at Shop 3 Balmoral Walk, Bayside Shopping Centre, Frankston. Visit www.dressforsuccess.org/morningtonpeninsula or call 9770 0220.

Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au STUDENTS at Patterson River Secondary College enjoyed the sights and sounds of an Anzac Day “community roadshow” on Tuesday. It was all part of the Anzac Centenary – Victoria’s Journey of Remembrance which included a visit by Premier Denis Napthine, Veterans’ Affairs Minister Damian Drum and Carrum MP Donna Bauer. Actors dressed as soldiers brought the flavor of the era into the classroom. The roadshow is an important part of the state government’s commemorations to mark 100 years since the start of World War I. It will travel to communities across the state throughout the year. The event includes a video presentation, live theatre performance, guest speakers and a centenary commemorative information pack which includes information about the Great War and replicas of the Peace Medal issued to school children to mark its end in 1919. College principal Maree Vinocuroff said the students enjoyed watching videos of war scenes of the time and sketches of young soldiers bidding farewell to loved ones. The focus was on the young ages of the soldiers 100 years ago. Many were only 14 – the same age as many of the students. “The students were attentive,” she said. “They thought it was a great presentation.” Dr Napthine said every soldier, nurse and civilian who devoted themselves to the war effort helped shape Australia’s character of resilience, strength and mateship.

Carrum MP Donna Bauer is encouraging “everyone to take part in the roadshows which are a great way for the whole community to come together and honour the sacrifice of the Anzacs.” They aim to inspire people to explore their connections to those fighting in World War I. This struck a chord with Ms Vinocuroff, who has since

discovered she had a relative in the fighting. Victorian Anzac Centenary Committee chairman Ted Baillieu said the roadshow would include day-time shows for secondary school students and evening events for local communities. “We encourage all Victorians to find their connections with our original Anzacs,” he said. “Victorians recognise and relate to the principles of courage, mateship, determination and initiative that are represented by the Anzacs and by those Australian men and women who have fought in wars since World War I.” Activities to mark the start of the Anzac Centenary on Monday 4 and Tuesday 5 August - the anniversaries of the declarations of war in Great Britain and Australia - include: 2pm Monday 4 August – a public wreath laying ceremony at the Shrine of Remembrance;  6pm Monday 4 August – a free public event at the Melbourne Town Hall to commemorate a rally supporting enlistment 100 years ago; and  11am Tuesday 5 August – a commemoration of the first shot fired in the British Empire by gunners at Fort Nepean, Portsea, at the German ship SS Pfalz.

Frankston premiership captain appointed to AFL commission

Digging it: Frankston mayor Darrel Taylor helped Frankston Heights Primary School pupils plant seedlings at Wallace Reserve for Schools Tree Day.

Planting for the future ABOUT 170 pupils from Frankston Heights Primary School visited Wallace Reserve to celebrate Schools Tree Day on Friday 25 July. During the morning, they planted nearly 500 seedlings and grasses provided by Frankston Council’s indigenous plant nursery. Volunteers from the Friends of Wallace Reserve and council rangers were on hand to help, while Frankston mayor Cr Darrel Taylor also dropped in to dig some holes. The friends group works in the reserve twice each month and are joined by a group of intellectually disabled young adults from Connecting Skills Australia on one of those days. They also came along to join in the fun on Schools Tree Day. Friends Group Secretary David Cross said:

“Our range of participants demonstrate that we are a truly community-orientated organisation, working alongside the students, our CSA Friends, the 3rd Frankston Girl Guides and the community. We also enjoy great support from Frankston Council and reserve ranger Kim.” School Trees Day has been an annual event at Wallace Reserve since 2006. “Our preps through to grade 4 have been looking forward to Schools Tree Day and one of the highlights is the walk through the reserve to visit the previous years’ planting area,” Frankston Heights Primary sustainability team teacher Peter Matthews said. “Our pupils have planted more than 2,500 seedlings at the reserve over the years.”

FORMER Frankston YCW premiership captain Paul Theobald has been appointed to the AFL South East Commisson executive. A spot on the executive became available after Ken Jungwirth’s retirement in May. A highly decorated footballer with Frankston YCW in the Mornington Peninsula Football League and director of Greenway Projects, Theobald brings a wealth of football and business experience to AFL South East. He played 264 senior games for Frankston YCW between 1989 and 2001 and won five premierships, two as captain. Theobald was twice named the MPNFL’s best and fairest player, in 1991 and 1997, and was twice Frankston YCW’s best and fairest, in 1990 and 1999. He represented the MPNFL on eight occasions, only missing out on a ninth straight selection due to injury in 1995. Theobald was named in the Stonecats Team of the Half Century. In announcing the appointment, AFL South East chairman Jeff Kimber said the commission was thrilled to have someone with Theobald’s credentials helping shape football in the region. “Paul’s local football and business experience will be an invaluable asset to the strategic discussions and decisions of the commission,” he said. “He has an absolute passion for local football and that passion is evident in his enthusiasm to strengthen, develop and promote football in the region.” Theobald said he is excited by the challenges and opportunity the commission position presents. “Football has given me enormous joy, treasured memories and lifelong friendships and

this role is just another element of my football journey. This role provides the opportunity for me to contribute to the strength and vitality of football in the region and continue to provide players the same opportunities I was afforded,” he said. “In assessing this position, contributing to the enormous benefits AFL South East can and will bring to the region was something I was keen to be a part of. I look forward working with all stakeholders in the region for the best outcomes for local football”. Theobald joins Jeff Kimber, Scott Grimster, Russell Jacgung and Karen De Villiers as part of the five member commission alongside region general manager Jeremy Bourke. The commission will expand to seven members at its AGM later this year.

Search on for sculpture cash Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au A PLAN to install sculptures at Frankston train station to “change the face of Frankston” could be at least partially funded from the $13.8 million pledged by the state government for the Frankston Station Precinct Improvement Project. The ambitious proposal, brought to council by the Frankston Business Coalition, may cost about $900,000 so councillors are keen to identify all sources of funding before committing ratepayers’ money to the project. The Frankston Business Coalition is a group of six businesspeople, including former Frankston mayor Christine Richards, who are lobbying the state government for “a better deal for Frankston” in the lead up to November’s state election. The group has proposed the installation of seven sculptures from Langwarrin’s McClelland Gallery would make Frankston station and its surrounds welcoming for visitors and residents alike (‘Sculpture move ‘on the right track’’, The Times, 9/6/14). Councillors discussed the sculptures plan at last Monday’s council meeting. While most were generally supportive of the plan, some were concerned about the project’s price tag and questioned whether the plan was simply a way to “fill a black hole” in McClelland Gallery’s finances. The gallery faces a funding crisis after the death of major patron Dame Elisabeth Murdoch in 2012. Dame

Elisabeth supported McClelland Gallery financially via a $400,000 annual grant and was an active member of its arts advisory panel. Frankston Council has been advised that part of the state government’s $13.8 million commitment to the station can include financing public artworks but an exact amount has not yet been allocated for this purpose. Cr Suzette Tayler said she had

no problem with artworks being installed at Frankston station but said the process to deliver public art must be open and transparent. “There are certain councillors that are pushing McClelland… it worries me to hear about a black hole in McClelland’s finances.” Cr Tayler said local artists, including those at Chisholm TAFE should be included in the process. Council corporate development

director Tim Frederico said any project costed at more than $50,000 would have to go out to tender to get “best market value”. Cr Glenn Aitken noted McClelland “might not get the job” but could see no reason why this would not be the case. “Why wouldn’t we support McClelland Gallery who are struggling at the moment?” Cr James Dooley also urged caution over the project’s possible costs, but backed McClelland Gallery as the local experts in sculptures installation and maintenance. “Having the McClelland Gallery here is like having the equivalent of the NGV [National Gallery of Victoria] for sculpture works,” he said. Council will now explore funding options such as Arts Victoria and Australia Council for the Arts grants. Council officers noted up to $200,000 may be available via a Department of Transport Planning and Local Infrastructure community infrastructure fund but council would have to chip in $3 for every $1 provided by the DTPLI. Cr Aitken said having major artworks installed in and around the station had the potential to “change the face of Frankston” since it is often the first thing visitors see when they arrive. The council officers’ report noted: “many councils across Australia are considering or putting in place Public Art Policy to include between 2.5 per cent to 5 per cent for public art in significant building and infrastructure projects.”

Port work no danger to whales: Hunt Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au

Hastings Development Authority”. A spokesman for the port authority said controls set by the survey’s environmental management plan – a condition of Victorian approval – “ensure that the Ramsar values will be protected and that compliance with the controls will be reported”. Ms Wilkinson said the port authority was disregarding its obligations under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act. “The EPBC Act clearly states that activities, like underwater drilling, which

are likely to harm whales, need to be approved by the federal environment minister,” she said. “Previous drilling activities around Australia have been referred to the minister.” A mother whale and calf had been seen “very close to the drilling site at Cowes [Phillip Island]”. “Experts believe these whales are southern right whales. The expert view is that southern right whales are extremely sensitive to noise disturbance, especially when they are nursing a

baby calf,” said Ms Wilkinson. “Other whales have been seen in the area as recently as last Monday. The Port of Hastings Development Authority need to take their legal responsibilities seriously to protect these sensitive animals.” Mr Nottle said up to 110 bores had been drilled in Western Port. “This is Minister Hunt’s electorate and this is going on right under his nose. This issue is important for the economy of this area. “Whale watching tours form an active and growing part of the tourism economy in Western Port.” Meanwhile, the port authority has started studying Western Port’s weather and wave patterns. “We are focusing on finding out as much as we can about Western Port and its environs to better inform planning and design decisions about the proposed container port at Hastings,” CEO Mike Lean said. “Understanding the many variables ranging from wind speeds and tidal patterns to water levels and wave actions, will greatly inform and direct the ongoing detailed scientific studies that we need to undertake to develop the design of the expanded port. “It’s all about ensuring we have the necessary information to inform the design processes for the Port of Hastings development,” Mr Lean said.

DINERS at Frankston’s Eeny Meeny Cafe will overhear dramatic conversations at adjoining tables during the Anywhere Theatre Festival, which is on from 28-31 August. The play To Be Determined, directed and produced by Jessica Moody, an usher at Frankston Arts Centre, features four short plays about young people and the consequences of relationships. The performers are three actors seated at a table in the hip cafe. “The intimacy of the café performance enables the audience to overhear the conversations by young people, providing an insight to the labyrinth of youth, while conforming to the Melbourne tradition of keeping company over coffee,” Ms Moody said. The play blurs the lines between fiction and reality, as patrons try to distinguish performers from audience members. The ticket price includes a platter from the cafe menu, with full bar service and hot drinks available during the performance. Eeny Meeny Cafe is at 96 Young St. Doors open at 5.30pm. Tickets: $25. Ms Moody is deaf and, coincidentally, Hearing Awareness Week is from 2430 August. It aims to promote safe hearing and is also an opportunity for those deaf people aged 15 and over to share their experience and celebrate their aspirations.

THE federal environment department has ruled there is no harm being caused to whales from undersea drilling in Western Port. The drilling, part of investigations into expanding the Port of Hastings, has been underway for some months but environmentalists say it endangers mother whales entering the bay with their calves. A spokeswoman for Flinders MP and Environment Minister Greg Hunt last week said a geotechnical and geophysical survey of western Port “has not been referred under national environment law”. “Officers of the Department of the Environment have looked into this matter to determine whether national environmental law applies,” she said. “Based on the information available, it is unlikely to result in a significant impact on any matters of national environmental significance.” Lawyer Ariane Wilkinson, of Environmental Justice Australia, said “a number of whales, including a mother and calf, are at risk of harm by underwater drilling” in Western Port. “Any action that is likely to have a significant impact on a matter of national environmental significance must be referred for assessment and approval,” Ms Wilkinson said. Jeff Nottle, chairman of the Preserve Western Port Action Group, said Western Port was protected under the international Ramsar agreement “and should not be subject to the actions currently being conducted by the Port of

100% of your fire levy goes to our fire services Last year, the Victorian Government replaced the Fire Services Levy with a fairer system, as recommended by the Victorian Bushfires Royal Commission. Now every property owner contributes a fair share to Victoria’s fire services, not just those with adequate insurance. Eligible pensioners and veterans also receive a $50 concession. 100 per cent of the fire levy goes to support greater funding of the operations of the Country Fire Authority and Metropolitan Fire Brigade. This includes firefighters, staff and volunteers, training, community education, protective clothing, vital lifesaving equipment and more than 1,200 fire stations and 2,300 trucks. Each year, Victoria’s firefighters attend more than 78,000 incidents, including road accidents and rescues, bush and grass fires, fires in the home, and workplace incidents. It’s a fairer fire levy.

LETTERS Report wrong A report by Dr Hermione Parsons titled Build it – but will they come? contains many inaccuracies (‘Call for reassessment of port expansion’, The Times 21/7/14). The report is based on the false belief that larger ships will never come to Victoria and that catering for them is a waste of time. Since containerised shipping started, ships right around the world have steadily increased in size. To suddenly assume that this growth will stop immediately – and it would need to be immediately as Port Phillip cannot take ships any bigger than what currently comes here – is completely ignorant, and could have disastrous economic consequences for our state, as building a port in the wrong place is not a correction that can be made overnight. We have to remember that developing a new container port will take many years, with studies, approvals and construction all taking time. The Napthine government is planning for the future of trade in Victoria in order to keep our economy growing.

The Victorian government has been assessing options to cater for additional port capacity once the Port of Melbourne cannot be further expanded. This work has occurred under successive governments and has proved that Hastings is the only viable option. You only have to look at the change that has taken place in trade, containerisation and shipping around the world over the past 30 years. To stick one’s head in the sand and mount arguments based the false belief that larger ships will not come here will have huge implications on Victoria’s economic prospects. This is dangerous and economically reckless. Sydney has already increased its channel depth to cater for larger vessels, and Brisbane has plans underway to do the same. These private ports have invested in increasing their capacity to handle larger ships, and Victoria must or it will be left behind. Sir Henry Bolte zoned land in Hastings for port use back in the 60s. This was the sort of visionary thinking that has helped Victoria develop the strong economic position we currently have.

This is the type of thinking we need to have now. We have an opportunity and a responsibility to plan for the future and to ensure the continued prosperity of our great state. Developing a container port located at Hastings will achieve this. Other port locations will not. David Hodgett, Minister for Ports

Labor’s choice Here we go again. Without reference to any internal grassroots voting, Labor has anointed yet another union hack to stand at the next election, this time for the seat of Frankston, fireman union activist, Paul Edbrooke (‘Parties head for on line lection’, The Times, 28/7/14). Labor clearly has a shallow gene pool. It is more than ever reliant on the unions to fill its candidacies. It did this after the egg dripped off Daniel Andrews’ face when he promoted Helen Constas for our beloved Frankston. Gary Backwell, Frankston

‘Weak’ rooming house rules Continued from Page 3

Community development manager Fiona Johnstone has told council that officers will consider ways to best deal with rooming houses - including planning, building, health and community development - to achieve an outcome of well-designed and managed, low cost housing for the community. She said officers had responded to the supporting information provided with the petition, and addressed the issues raised. The officer’s report stated that rooming houses were increasingly being built in Frankston – which has a “well-known need for low-cost housing”. It said the state government’s decision to reduce its investment in low cost housing had contributed to private investor interest in the industry. “Council’s experience is that well-managed facilities - those that have been gained through a planning permit - do not generate complaints of amenity detriment,” the report stated.

Registration of rooming houses is required under the Public Health Act, allowing councils to ensure that fire safety standards are maintained. The petitioners claim the Finlay St rooming house:  Is not in line with the family friendly ideals of council, attracting troubled residents instead;  They were not given notice of planning, which would have allowed them to object before construction;  That the commercial development is in a quiet suburban street; No consideration was given to parking, landscaping, rubbish collection, drainage, utility connections and a potential decrease to liveability, and that Frankston is already overrun with rooming houses “giving us the appearance of a new urban ghetto”. The council’s compliance department works with local community action groups throughout the city, and the council is on a rooming house working group which includes the police, DHS and Consumer Affairs Victoria.

NEWS DESK Winter market THE 7th Annual Somers Winter Market will be held at Coolart wetlands and homestead, in Lord Somers Rd, on Saturday 9 August from 10am-3pm. Started in 2007 by creative parents raising funds for the Somers’ Pre-school, the winter market has grown to be one of the largest winter community events in the Western Port region. Around 30 stalls will sell an array of produce – all seasonal and home grown – as well as home-made clothes and jewellery. Other highlights will include a live DJ A13 (A One Three) and guitarist Thomas Hugh, along with gourmet foods, other cool tunes and local beverages. “This year we have set an ambitious goal to raise funds to complete the pre-school’s all-natural outdoor play area,” organiser Lily Bendevi said. “Our aim is to create an atmosphere where people can relax in a space in which history and conservation unite. The market sprawls around the tranquil Coolart grounds. Visitors can explore the late Victorian homestead, try delicious winter foods, browse the handmade market stalls and enjoy live entertainment. “We are giving families and visitors the chance to fill their shopping bags with heaps of goodies while supporting a great local cause,” Ms Bendevi said. See facebook.com/somerswintermarket or somerswintermarket.com.au

Masquerade ball to tackle sex slavery A CHARITY organisation working to protect Cambodians girls from sex trafficking is hosting a masquerade ball in Mornington next Saturday to raise funds to expand its program. Free To Shine is a humanitarian organisation founded in Australia that works in collaboration with communities and local governments in Cambodia to protect vulnerable girls. CEO Nicky Mih said Free To Shine strived to help Cambodian girls reach their full potential by ensuring they had the opportunity to attend school. The organisation’s team in Cambodia works in 15 rural villages with girls who have been at risk of being targeted by sex traffickers. So far, Free To Shine has assisted 176 girls to attend school in rural Cambodia and it is hoped a further 16 girls will soon join them thanks to funds to be raised from the masquerade ball. “This is a great opportunity for people on the Mornington Peninsula to share a fun evening with all the proceeds going to enrol more girls into Free To Shine’s scholarship program,” Ms Mih said. Entertainment at the ball will include some of Melbourne’s premier blues and jazz musicians, including Matt Dwyer, Andrea Marr, Robb Papp and Diddy Reyes, who are donating their services free of charge for the cause.

Night for Fammo

In disguise: Everyone and anyone is invited to join in the fun at the Free To Shine charity masquerade ball from 7.30pm at Cafe 115 in Main St, Mornington, on Saturday 16 August.

Organisers said the mask symbolises girls who remain enslaved, whose faces aren’t seen. However, they have advised guests to colourful masks to symbolise the strong character and colourful personalities of the girls.

THE next Johnny Famechon statue fundraising night will be at Ballam Park on Sunday. It will include a night with the former champion and boxing legends past and present – from the TV Ringside days to current champions – as well as a memorabilia auction. The event will honour Famechon – a long-time resident of Frankston – whose career record was 56 wins (20 by KO), six draws and five losses. It will also raise money for a 2.1 metre bronze statue in Ballam Park recognising his achievements. This will make him the 24th world champion to be honoured with his own statue. Two others are Les Darcy and Lionel Rose. Tickets for the night cost $85 a person which includes a three-course meal and drinks at bar prices. Bookings are essential. Pre booked tables of 10 cost $800. Sponsor packages $2000. The venue is the Frankston RSL Simpson Room, 183 Cranbourne Rd Frankston, phone 97832288. Details: Gary Luscombe on 0433 712 323 or Rob McCarthy on 0400 213 071. The Johnny Famechon statue is at stage two with its steel frame welded and ready for its clay mould. Stage one was the making of the marquette, a miniature statue replica 500cm high; stage three is having the clay mould sculptured into a Famechon pose; stage four is the pouring of the bronze mould and stage five is delivery and installation at Ballam park. Mr Luscombe said $96,000 was needed to complete the statue, with more than $70,000 raised so far through sponsorships and fundraising. Sixty seven plaques, representing all of Famechon’s bouts, are also being sold for $1000 each with the sponsor’s name at the base.

Tax time IT’S

FOR ALL YOUR TAXATION NEEDS Specialists in Personal Returns, Rental Properties, Partnerships, Companies and Trusts

Tax rules for rental properties IT’S not uncommon for first-time rental property owners to make some mistakes when claiming rental deductions on their tax return. With the ATO increasing its focus on rental property deductions this tax time, these mistakes could end up being costly. Some common errors made by rental property owners include: • claiming rental deductions for properties not genuinely available for rent • incorrectly claiming deductions for properties only available for rent part of the year such as a holiday home, • incorrectly claiming structural improvement costs as repairs when they are capital works deductions, such as re-modelling a bathroom or building a pergola, and • overstating deduction claims for the interest on loans taken out to purchase, renovate or maintain a rental property.

There are two categories of rental property expenses that can be claimed: • expenses deductible in the year they are paid, such as council rates, repairs, insurance and loan interest, and • expenses that are deductible over a number of years, like borrowing costs, creating structural improvements and costs of depreciating assets. Cost associated with acquiring or disposing of a property cannot be claimed, but they may form part of the cost base of the property for capital gains tax purposes. Renovation costs and costs to repair damage, defects or deterioration existing on purchase cannot be claimed as an immediate deduction. These costs are capital expenditure, depending upon what is repaired or improved, and must be claimed as either decline in value deductions over the asset's effective life, or as capital works

deductions over 40 years. Remember to keep accurate records so you only pay the right amount of tax. To help rental property owners get it right, the ATO has released a series of short videos that explain in simple terms, the tax implications of buying, owning and selling a rental property at ato.gov.au/rental. To talk to someone at the ATO about deductions for rental properties, call 13 28 61.

Capital gains adds up CALCULATING capital gains tax (CGT) discount is now easier with the ATO’s new online CGT discount calculator. Last year changes were made to the application of the CGT general discount, previously known as the CGT 50 per cent discount. To access the CGT discount calculator, visit ato. gov.au/cgtdiscountcalculator

Centre honours Dame Elisabeth LANGWARRIN Community Centre has named a room in honour of Dame Elisabeth Murdoch “for her tireless work for the Langwarrin community”. Centre manager Sam Rowley said Dame Elisabeth would long be remembered for her extraordinary contribution and generosity to this state and the wider Australian community. She thanked Anne Kantor, one of Dame Elisabeth’s daughters, for her time and support of the room naming. Regarded as one of Australia’s greatest philanthropists, Dame Elisabeth was born in 1909 and died in 2012. She lived at Cruden Farm, Langwarrin, for more than 80 years. She and her husband, Keith, raised their four children there – including media mogul Rupert. Dame Elisabeth’s community work led to her being made a Dame Commander of the British Empire in 1963 and, in 1989, a Companion of the Order of Australia. In 2005 she was named Victorian of the Year. The matriarch, who supported and volunteered her time to many charities and events, was known to have helped at least 100 organisations directly. But she also helped thousands of people, either with advice or by using her considerable influence and contacts.

Proud daughter: Anne Kantor in the room named in honour of her mother Dame Elisabeth.

Her greatest monuments are the Royal Children's Hospital and the Murdoch Children's Research Institute. In 2004, Langwarrin Secondary College was renamed Elisabeth Murdoch College to honour her work in the local community.

Winning ways: Deb McDonell outside Frankston Hospital. Picture: Yanni

Triathlon champ on the go at work and play DEB McDonell is a force to be reckoned with. The nurse unit manager at Peninsula Health will represent Australia at the 2014 International Triathlon Union world championships in Canada. McDonell got into triathlons by chance. “One of the day patients had been attending a local boot camp. Her trainer was conducting a charity session with the proceeds going to a cancer charity,” she said. “A few of us went along to support the cause and I ended up getting hooked. Eventually I wanted more of a challenge and started competing in local triathlons.” A quiet achiever, McDonell competed in qualifying rounds around the country before being selected for the championships in the 54-59 age group. She will compete in a 750 metre swim, 20 kilometre bike ride and five kilometre run. “The closer it gets the more nervous I

become,” she said last week. The associate nurse unit manager of the chemotherapy day unit at Frankston Hospital joined Peninsula Health as a chemotherapy nurse in 1999. “I was here when the chemotherapy unit opened and have seen it move and grow over the years,” she said. Working in a number of chemotherapy roles across different health services, McDonell honed her skills to become a first class nurse before returning to Peninsula Health in 2010. “I love interacting with the patients and helping them. It is a rewarding experience being able to make someone’s treatment a bit brighter when they’re going through such a tough time.” McDonell leaves for Edmonton in late August and is looking forward to “shouting myself a trip to New York” on the way home.

Kits to help wipe out graffiti PORTABLE graffiti removal kits have given six community and sporting groups the ability to clean up quickly after vandal attacks. The kits were handed over at Frankston Pines Soccer Club last week by crime prevention minister, Edward O’Donohue. “Illegal and unsightly graffiti is a blight on the local streetscape and can make people feel less safe in their own community,” Mr O’Donohue said. “Portable graffiti removal systems are valuable assets in the ongoing fight as they help community members remove graffiti as quickly

PAGE 30

Frankston Times 4 August 2014

as possible after it appears.” The graffiti removal kits were also given to the Seaford Tigers Football Club, Carrum Downs Junior Football Club, Langwarrin Football Club, Groundswell Community Garden and the Frankston Pigeon Club. The kits include a 120-litre wheelie bin, highpressure water system, graffiti removal products and personal protective equipment. Frankston Council has received $66,000 in grants to erase graffiti as well as the work of supervised teams of offenders on community orders.

Safe passage: A container ship on its way out of Port Phillip.

Mayor blasts Laborâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Bay Westâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; port plan MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Antonella Celi has dubbed a Labor Party plan for a new container port near Geelong â&#x20AC;&#x153;fundamentally flawed". A statement issued by the mayor on Thursday supporting the $12 billion expansion of the Port of Hastings means the shire will be at odds with the state government if Labor wins the November election. "The proposal to build an eight kilometre-long pier is problematic enough, but when you consider the amount of dredging that would be required to accommodate the larger vessels, it just doesn't stack up - particularly when Hastings is already a natural deep water port," Cr Celi said. Before Cr Celiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s endorsement of expanding the Port of Hastings, the shireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position had been to give â&#x20AC;&#x153;in principleâ&#x20AC;? support. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However, this support has been conditional on satisfactory resolution of the issues raised by the community, particularly ensuring that Hastings is further developed as an environmentally sustainable â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;green portâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, and that the necessary transport infrastructure is provided ahead of demand to avoid adverse traffic and rail transport impacts on the shireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s townships,â&#x20AC;? officers stated in a report to councillors last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The business case should also clearly identify the economic benefits to the Shire and the south east region.â&#x20AC;? The state government has not released any cost estimates of upgrading rail and road links to service the new port. The mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to enter the battle over the site for Melbourneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next container port comes a month after Victoria University researchers issued a warning that Western Port may not be the best option for a new container port. The Build it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but will they come? report cast doubts on the need for a port that can accommodate the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest ships. Co-author Professor Hermione Parsons said the decision of where to build a port was too important to be left to politicians. Ports Minister David Hodgett last week issued a statement saying the report â&#x20AC;&#x153;contains many inaccuraciesâ&#x20AC;? and was â&#x20AC;&#x153;based on the false belief that larger ships will never come to Victoria and that catering for them is a waste of timeâ&#x20AC;?. Mr Hodgett said it would be â&#x20AC;&#x153;completely ignorantâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;economically recklessâ&#x20AC;? to assume that the size of container ships would stop increasing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To stick oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head in the sand and mount arguments based the false belief that larger ships will not come here will have huge implications on Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic prospects.â&#x20AC;? Mr Hodgett said Victoria needed the â&#x20AC;&#x153;sort of visionary thinkingâ&#x20AC;? of former Victorian premier Sir Henry Bolte who â&#x20AC;&#x153;zoned land in Hastings for port use back in the 60sâ&#x20AC;?. At the time, Sir Henry envisaged Western Port as being the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ruhr of the southâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; emulating Germanyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s massive industrial centre - and said petrochemical companies facing tough environmental laws in Europe should be invited to operate at Hastings. When asked about atmospheric pollution, Sir Henry replied: â&#x20AC;&#x153;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll blow awayâ&#x20AC;?. Mr Hodgettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s statement is published in full in Letters, Page 14. Maritime analyst Sandy Galbraith was quoted in The Age newspaper last week as saying the shipping industry â&#x20AC;&#x153;doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want [Laborâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s] Bay West". He said trucking companies had a â&#x20AC;&#x153;great vested

interestâ&#x20AC;? in a port on the western side of Port Phillip â&#x20AC;&#x153;but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the driver of where Melbourne's next port needs to be, ships are". Dr Parsons argues that Victoria should have a fall-back position if the Port of Hastings proposal does not prove viable, economically and environmentally. While the state is spending $110 million on studies over four years to show the port is viable, Dr Parsons says its development may not be able to meet international obligations to protect wetlands. Her report estimates more than 70 per cent of containers would have to reach Hastings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; by road or rail â&#x20AC;&#x201C; through metropolitan Melbourne, increasing distances from the current average of 22 kilometres to more than 100. Dr Parsonsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; report stated that it was â&#x20AC;&#x153;simplisticâ&#x20AC;? to expect large ships would head to Melbourne because there was a port. It was a view â&#x20AC;&#x153;not reflected in the commercial operations of shipping companies or the supply chain industries in international or capital city marketsâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Port of Hastings Development Authority projects anticipated service of container mega ships can be put into context by comparing with those trading on the major east-west shipping routes between Asia and Europe. The Port of Rotterdam handles mega ships to service a market hinterland of 350 million people, compared with Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total market population of 23 million people and Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current population of 6 million that is anticipated to grow to 10 million people by 2050.â&#x20AC;? Cr Celi said the Port of Hastings was the â&#x20AC;&#x153;only operational deep water port capable of accommodating the larger container ships currently being constructed and used worldwideâ&#x20AC;?. "Hastings is perfectly placed to be Victoria's second container port," Cr Celi said. "There is 3500 hectares of land already zoned for port-related activities available within the precinct, which is unique in Australia. "The development of the Port of Hastings is a great opportunity for our region, providing a significant boost to our local economy and creating sustainable employment opportunities for our community today and for future generations." Cr Celi said a Department of Transport investigation of Laborâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so-called Bay West plan found that 66 million to 84 million cubic metres of material would need to be dredged from the sea floor so ships could reach the site â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;up to four times more than was dredged in the previous channeldeepening projectâ&#x20AC;?. The Build it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but will they come? report says the size of ships coming to Australia will be determined by the shallowest port. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The greater proposed water depth at the Port of Hastings, therefore, may have little or no influence on the size of vessels, given that the container ships normally also serve the other capital cities with ports that will not accommodate the larger vessels. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unless each major capital city port deepens their shipping channel and berths, the larger vessels will not come. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The stark differences in market sizes emphasise that in order to maintain a container shipping service that satisfies Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s need for reliable, regular (weekly) movement of imports and exports, particularly the substantial agricultural and perishable food-related exports, the smaller container vessels are likely to be more suitable than the larger mega ships; the transit times of Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agricultural and food exports are kept to a minimum through regular and frequent direct vessel calls across all Australian ports.â&#x20AC;?

Time to comment, but not change, point plan Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au THE state government is inviting public feedback on a $100 million tourism plan at Point Nepean already endorsed by the Premier Denis Napthine. Environment and Climate Change Minister Ryan Smith announced on 31 July that the â&#x20AC;&#x153;public consultation periodâ&#x20AC;? for the plan was open until 28 August. Although calling for public comment, the government has not committed itself to making any changes to the proposal, which now needs planning approval by Mornington Peninsula Shire. Mr Smith said the plan would â&#x20AC;&#x153;transform the iconic Point Nepean Quarantine Station into a world-class tourist destination and education precinctâ&#x20AC;?. The successful proposal by Point Leisure Group â&#x20AC;&#x201C; run by Myer family members Richard and Trine Shelmerdine includes a hotel, thermal pools and spa, a health and wellness centre, accommodation including both luxury and camping styles, shops, cafes, restaurants and a heritage museum and jetty. An earlier version of the adopted plan seen by The Times shows triangular shaped luxury â&#x20AC;&#x153;retreatsâ&#x20AC;? near Cheviot Beach and close to Point Nepean as well as a large circular bathing pool inside of the Quarantine Station precinct. The Victorian National Parks Association said questions that should be answered by the government include the length of the lease for the Quarantine Station area and how much rent Point Leisure Group will pay.

Approved: The state government has approved plans to develop a range of tourist attractions at Point Nepean.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Napthine government has changed the National Parks Act to allow for 99-year leases in national parks, which is tantamount to private ownership. Is this what is proposed for Point Nepean?â&#x20AC;? VNPA executive director Matt Ruchel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the United States, best practice for proposed commercial uses in national parks is to require a substantial bond. We understand that this is an amount up to the value of the development - that is, if the development is valued at $100 million, the bond is also $100 million. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many of the buildings there will have uses that are not available to the general public, but are only for people who have paid to be there. Will the public still be able to enjoy the site's

natural and cultural heritage freely, or will they have to pay?â&#x20AC;? Nepean MP Martin Dixon said issues raised by the VNPA were â&#x20AC;&#x153;still in discussion as part of the proposal put forward by The Point Leisure Groupâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Point Leisure Group have made an offer in their Request for Proposal which includes rent, term of lease and management responsibilities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;DEPI [Department of Environment and Primary Industries] will be discussing the full terms with PLG in the coming months to reach a final agreement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By working in partnership with the private sector, we can support a yearround, vibrant tourism destination with a range of uses that preserve and enhance the experience of key historic

RED HOT DEAL!

buildings and the rich history of the Quarantine Station.â&#x20AC;? Mr Dixon said the development meant the level of public access to the Quarantine Station area would be â&#x20AC;&#x153;unprecedented in its historyâ&#x20AC;? with the continuation of â&#x20AC;&#x153;all existing events and activities â&#x20AC;Ś as well as a range of new onesâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This project is unlocking a large area of public land that can be enjoyed by locals and visitors alike for many years to come,â&#x20AC;? he said. Mr Dixon said the Point Leisure Groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan â&#x20AC;&#x153;follows stringent guidelines that will protect and enhance the local environment, coastline and historic buildingsâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This vision will also bring a huge boost to the Mornington Peninsula and

Mr Ruchel warned there was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;huge riskâ&#x20AC;? of private developments growing, â&#x20AC;&#x153;especially if they are within the 99-year lease period. Ninety-nine years is a very long time - more than 24 election cyclesâ&#x20AC;?. He said the draft master plan for Point Nepean included a jetty in the Ticonderoga Bay dolphin sanctuary. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This jetty would damage critical seagrass habitat for the resident Burrunan dolphins as well as many other marine species that rely on this underwater area for their homes,â&#x20AC;? Mr Ruchel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Napthine government argues that the Quarantine Station is falling down and not widely used by the public at present. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It omits to tell people that the Commonwealth only handed over the station to the Victorian government in 2009, just five years ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The government has put a lot of effort into attempting to sell off the heritage precinct, rather than trying to make it 'work' and attract visitors as it is.â&#x20AC;? Mr Ruchel said the VNPA opposed â&#x20AC;&#x153;private enclaves with 99-year leases within publicly owned parks that restrict access for the general public and are an ongoing threat to the protection of the natural values of the parksâ&#x20AC;?. The tourism plan can be viewed on the DEPI website or at the Point Nepean Quarantine Station visitor centre. An open day at the site will be held by Point Leisure Group, DEPI and Parks Victoria 23 August.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

War welcomed with “quiet excitement” Compiled by Cameron McCullough At the last meeting of the Cranbourne shire council the tender of Messrs Nicholls Bros, £48, for clearing on Cranbourne-Frankston Road, 80 chains, was accepted. *** A meeting of members of the Frankston rifle club will be held on Monday a night at 8pm in the Mechanics’ committee room. A full attendance is requested, as business is important. *** Mr H. Slattery, the well known (tenor) of the “ We Four” Quartets Party, who delighted the Frankston audience at the Fire Brigade concert recently, will sing the tenor at Frankston choral concert on August 19th. *** In another column, Cr W. J. Oates announces that it his intention to again be a candidate for the seat in the shire of Frankston and Hastings, rendered vacant by his resignation through effluxion of time. *** At St. Paul’s Church, Frankston, on Sunday next, special intercessions appropriate to the time of war will be offered at both services. The National Anthem and Kiplings “Recessional” will also be sung. Daily prayers will be said in the church during the war crisis at 8.45 in the morning and 7.45 at night, with special intercessions. *** Major C. W. Campbell of Frankston, who recently motored throughout parts of Australia, proposes to motor

to Adelaide to see Zephuron run in the Adelaide Grand National Steeplechase this month, and will, we understand, visit many centres of South Australia on the return journey. *** Quiet excitement was manifest among the members of the choral society on Monday evening when news was received the war was certain. The enthusiastic rendition of the National Anthem and the display of patriotism came as a surprise to Mr Earp, the conductor. *** The death occurred at his residence, High street, Frankston, on Wednesday last, of Mr Henry Triller, who was the only son of the late Henry Triller, contractor, South Yarra. The deceased, who was 72 years of age, was a colonist of 62 years. He leaves a widow and three daughters to mourn their loss. *** A public meeting will be held in the Mechanics’ Hall Frankston, on Tuesday evening next, in connection with the Liberal Workers’ campaign, when Messrs N. Nicholls and W. Craven (Liberal Workers’ Institute) will speak on “ What Liberalism offers the Worker.” Ladies are specially invited. *** Over 100 city representative men will be present at the banquet to be held in the hall, Frankston, on Saturday August 15th, and the Essendon football club expects a large following of their supporters to journey to Frankston in the afternoon to witness

the Peninsula combination meet the wearers of the red and black uniform. Good crowds should also be present from all the Peninsula towns to check on their respective champions. *** At the Poultry and Kennel Club Show, held last week at the Exhibition, Master Douglas Picking, of Frankston, was successful in securing three First Prizes, a Third, and Highly Commended for his Indian Game Pullets and Bantams.*** There was a fair attendance at the euchre party and dance, held in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall on Tuesday evening, in aid of the funds of the Frankston Brass Band. The gent’s prize was annexed by Mr Jacobs, and Mrs Dalman accounted for the lady’s prize. The booby prizes fell to Mr A. Burton and Mrs Tait. After the cards, dancing was indulged in, and a thoroughly enjoyable time was spent. Before proceedings commenced, several selections were rendered by the band outside the hall. *** Messrs Brody and Mason will hold their monthly sale at Somerville on Wednesday next, when in addition to the usual supply, they will sell several useful horses on account of Mr G. Shepherd and dairy cows, etc., in the estate of Mr A. J. Maucum. On the 19th inst they will hold an extensive clearing sale of cattle, horse, household furniture and sundries at Frankston in the assigned estates of

Ellen J. Spears and John Rule. *** A wedding of interest to residents of Somerville was celebrated at St James Church of England, Dandenong, on Wednesday, July 29th, when Mr Albert Hawkin, son of Mr and Mrs H. Hawkin of “Oaklands” Somerville, was married to Miss Annie Maude Pedler, daughter of the late Richard Pedler, and Mrs Pedler of “Kilburnie” Dandenong. The wedding, though a quiet one, was very pretty, the church being decorated with white roses, ferns, tree lucerne and gum tops by the girl friends of the bride. The Rev Veal officiated, and Miss Hemmings presided at the organ. Miss Lillian Pedler and Miss Edith Hawkin were the bridesmaids, while Messrs H. and C. Pedler supported the bridegroom. The bride who was given away by her brother, (Mr Henry Pedler) looked very dainty in charmeuse satin. The square train was caught up with orange blossom and a handsomely embroidered veil was worn in the new cap effect, the same motive being carried out in the bridesmaids caps, which were of tulle trimmed with pleated ribbon horse shoes and ends. The bridesmaids wore white lace frocks. The shower bouquets of massed blue violets and pale pink carnations deserve special mention. They were the work of Mrs Van Breda and were greatly admired, The reception was held at the Royal Hotel when the customary good

wishes were expressed and the toasts drank with musical honours. The mother of the bride wore an elegant toilette of black crepe de chene, draped with ninon. General regret was expressed that through the ill health of Mrs Hawkin, the parents of the bridegroom were unable to be present. After the reception the happy pair amid showers of the inevitable coloured confetti, left for Bendigo, where the honeymoon is to be spent. Mrs Hawkin wore a smart costume of prune silk brocade, with hat of prune velvet, and furs. On their return they will reside at Mornington. The presents were both numerous and costly, including several cheques, and a handsome piano from the mother of the bride. The bride groom’s gift to bride was a gold bracelet, and to the bridesmaids turquoise cluster rings. The popularity of the bride was shown by the handsome cruet presented to her by the choir and Sunday school of which she was a member and teacher. *** TO THE EDITOR. Sir, I would like to state through, the medium of your paper, that I could not help being astonished at the number of shopkeepers and business people of Frankston, who were conspicuous by their absence from the Progress meeting on Wednesday evening last. ADVANCE AUSTRALIA. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 8 August 1914.

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT

Balls up! The demise of ping-pong By Stuart McCullough TRUTH be told, I was never really interested. For me, it was something to do when stuck on holidays, when all televisions in a fifty-kilometre radius had malfunctioned. We didn’t have one at home. But at every caravan park we ever visited – from the dingiest lump of dirt with an adjacent toilet block to the self-proclaimed ‘holiday resorts’ – there was always a ‘Rec’ room and in that Rec room there was always a ping-pong table. As I approached the door, my heart could not help but hope for Pac Man or even a little Dig Dug. Upon pulling the handle, a dingy squat would be revealed, various incomplete board games in a pile that looked as though they had been recently assaulted and a decrepit ping-pong table. For most people, their opponent is the person standing on the other side of the net. Not for me. When attempting to play ping-pong, I was fighting two adversaries – gravity and the game itself. I admit that they both got the better of me. I lacked the patience and the precision to ever get the ball from one side of the net to the other as the rules required. If it landed on the table, it would only ever be by accident and never by design. Like everything, I believed that maximum effort was required and would swing the paddle with a level of force intended to launch the ball not so much over the net as in to outer space. So much in a game of ping-pong turns on the serve. It was a skill I never mastered. At recreation rooms,

there was always some kid who had devoted his entire life to the art of ping-pong; no doubt dropping out of school to spend every waking hour to mastering the art of the back-spin serve. There is nothing quite so humiliating as standing at the end of the table and watching as little white balls go zipping past without you so much as moving your bat one inch. The experience is even more humbling

when the person shooting them past your ears is your eight-year-old sister. Then there’s the jog of shame… The jog of shame occurs when the ball shoots past, rolls along the floor and out the door and you have to trot along after it, bringing it back before someone in an EJ Falcon towing a caravan called ‘The Global Conqueror’ runs over it. (That’s the other thing about camping – all the

caravans have names better suited to an armoured artillery vehicle.) I spent more time retrieving ping-pong balls than I ever did playing the game itself. I promised myself that if I ever won a match, I would instantly retire. Now, it seems, it’s too late. Ping-pong as we know it will shortly be at an end. The celluloid ball – which has long been the championship standard - is due to be replaced by plastic. I may have hated the game, but even I take no delight to see a once-great sport reduced to the ignominy of plastic balls. There are apparently two reasons for this monumental shake up. Firstly, there is something of a worldwide shortage of raw celluloid. The second reason for ruining everything is simple: safety. On behalf of anyone who has ever copped a ping pong ball square between the eyes, I can only say that they may be round but those little suckers certainly do pack a punch. But, apparently, that’s not the issue. Celluloid is flammable. Apparently, there are concerns that the balls might burst into flame whilst being transported. Talk about a squandered opportunity. All these years of pingpong tournaments, and no one ever thought to incorporate a flaming ball into the game proper? With the added dimension of naked flame, ping-pong might have stood a chance to haul itself out of the sporting fringes and become a mainstream sport that people might have actually wanted to watch. Rec rooms at caravans across the country would have been transformed

from future toilet-blocks-in-waiting to flaming gladiatorial areas. If only. Being replaced by plastic is, I feel, a fate that awaits us all. But rather than try and reinvent the wheel / ball, I think that powers that be should consider alternatives. For example, why not replace the ping-pong ball altogether? A squash ball is about the right size. That said, a little black ball might be hard to see (Rec room lighting is never that flash). Perhaps a medicine ball is the answer. There are no problems with visibility and the chances of it rolling along the floor and out the door are, it must be said, remote. Even I would be able to spot a medicine ball as it lumbered over the net, slamming into the table like a spherical elephant drunkenly falling over a fence. That’s where I went wrong. I see the problem as clearly as a medicine ball. Paddles should only be used when you’re heading to a particular creek in a barbed wire canoe. Not for sport. I should’ve used a tennis racquet and swapped that little white missile for something easier to see. Like a balloon. The mistake I made was in accepting things as they were. I should have been bolder; more willing to mix things us, regardless of the consequences. I ought to have written my own rules. And if the kid in the Rec room who’s waiting to trash some blow-in from Tyabb twenty-one to zip has a problem with that, I can always set his ball on fire. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Get your kids crafty by painting with trains MY son isn’t a huge fan of arts and crafts. So when I spotted this activity at play-trains.com, I thought what a great way to get him excited about painting. All you need is paint, paper or a canvas, and metal trains (we used Thomas die cast models). While he lined his trains, I poured blobs of paint all over the canvas (the smaller blobs work better when you can control the paint!) There was absolutely no thought to this, other than to randomly place different colours in the space. He then drove his trains all over the canvas. I loved listening to the adventure he was describing the trains were on. As the colours began to all join together in a brownish mess, we decided this picture was finished and found a new piece of paper. I didn’t use new paint blobs as there was still quite a bit on the train wheels. This would be a good time to make some smaller pictures. Don’t forget that a sink full of warm water and lots of bubbles allows for the clean up to be just as fun as the painting. After allowing the canvas to dry for many hours (due to the thickness of the pain), we have ended up with a gorgeous painting that is now proudly hanging on the wall in my son’s bedroom. And a previous disinterested painter now requests paper, paint and brushes every day. This guide can be found in the Rainy Day Activities Guide on our website, along with over 50 arts’n’crafts, games, cooking and indoor fun ideas that will help you enjoy a winter’s day indoors. Everything uses items from around your home and basic supplies from your local supermarket or discount store. Visit www.peninsulakids.com.au/rainy-dayactivities/

Stonecats are clear favourites PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt FRANKSTON YCW sits two games clear at the top of the Peninsula League ladder after winning a dog fight with Edithvale-Aspendale on Saturday. The Stonecats are now a clear favourite for the 2014 premiership after knocking over last year’s grand finalists Edithvale and Bonbeach in recent times. In a game that was an arm wrestle all afternoon, the Stonecats came from three points down at three quarter time to take control of the match in the last quarter and get home by seven points, 9.13 (67) to 9.6 (60). The home side booted 2.5 to 1.1 in the final term, Anthony Barry again dominating while Tony Lester was at his best, especially when it mattered most. Ricky Morris was back in the side for the Stonecats after a long lay-off while EdithvaleAspendale fielded its strongest side for the season. Eagles coach Troy Shannon said before the game that he was pleased to be getting his best side on the park at the right time of the year. In saying that, the likes of Tim Mavric, Markham Johnson and Mark Mullins didn’t play for the Eagles on Saturday.

Edithvale-Aspendale has used 38 players through the seniors this season, more than any other side in the competition. Kevin Lylak and Riley Hodson were again amongst the best for the Stonecats while Brad Ulms was also up and about. Jack Mazurek was YCW’s only multiple goalkicker with two goals and he played an outstanding game. Michael Kremmer, who has been used as a defender in recent times, was fantastic yet again for the Eagles while Stevey Mannix continued his dominant season. Brad Gilder and Matty Clark also dominated, as did Jeremy Heys. Chelsea gave Mornington one hell of a fright on Saturday, pushing the visitors right to the final siren. The Seagulls booted seven of the last 11 goals of the match, going down by just five points, 10.13 (73) to 11.12 (78). The home side lost the match in the opening half, where they trailed by 25 points at half time. However, through the likes of Matt Smith, Brad Clark and Fia Tootoo, as well as Robbie Lancaster with four goals and Toddy Gardiner getting a heap of it, the Gulls came storming home. Fortunately for the Dogs, Warwick Miller was dominant across four quarters and Adam

Symes was fantastic in only his sixth game for the season. Adrian Speedy booted three goals for the winners, along with Jackson Calder, who now has 32 for the season, four behind leader David Bodley (YCW). Mt Eliza got some much needed percentage, thumping Karingal to the tune of 81 points, 25.12 (162) to 12.9 (81). Scott Lockwood booted ten for the Redlegs while Sam Wettenhall and Jordan Moncrief kicked four each. Tim Strickland kicked a couple and dominated the match while John Meesen also controlled things in the ruck. It was a tough day at the office for stand-in coach Michael Burke. Hadley Tomamichel booted five goals for the Bulls while Ray Lengyel and Paxton brothers, Aaron and Grant were outstanding. Karingal President Jeff Walton said the split between former coach Stephen Coates and the club was mutual. “We spoke to Stephen after the Edithvale game and let him know that we needed a change. He agreed that this was best,” Walton said. “Burkey is a legend of this club and was happy to take the reins for the remainder of the year. At this stage we’re not sure whether he’ll

throw his hat into the ring for job next season,” Walton said. Burke was amongst the best for the Bulls yet again on Saturday. Nathan Hicks and Justin Norton booted three goals each and a further eight players contributed on the scoreboard for Bonbeach in their 16.17 (113) to 5.9 (39) win against Pines. Jackson Casey and Dylan Jones continued their domination while Mark Tyrell was also at his best for the Sharks. Jake Prosser and the Hendry brothers, Guy and Beau, were the best of the Pythons. In the final game, Langwarrin kept its slim finals hope alive with a 21.14 (140) to 10.9 (69) demolition of Seaford. It was clearly the Kangas best four-quarter performance of the season with matt Dimkos booted six goals, Sean Herdman four and Daniel Wehner three. Beau Muston was also outstanding for the Kangas while Andy Taylor has made the most of his opportunities since returning to the seniors. Skipper Scott Sienkiewicz has been superb all season, as has Jarryd Amalfi. Luke Smith kicked three goals for the Tigers and Tommy Shaw and Rory Luxton worked tirelessly.

Finals venues raise questions By Toe Punt THE 2014 Nepean and Peninsula League finals venues have been announced. The Nepean League Grand Final will be played at Hastings this year. The preliminary Final will be played at Somerville while the third venue being used is Rye, which will host the 1st semi final. The Grand Final will not be played at Frankston Park due to construction works. However, despite the rebuilding of the Sports Club, the Peninsula League finals are still scheduled to take place at Kars St. Langwarrin has been earmarked as the ground for the Peninsula Grand Final should Frankston Park become unavailable. Pines will also be used for Peninsula League finals. Whilst many don’t have an issue with the Nepean League grand final being played at Hastings, they do believe that it should be at Frankston Park. Red Hill coach Tony Blackford said if Frankston Park was available for Peninsula Finals, it should be available for the Nepean Grand Final. “I don’t know what the issue is? If the ground is OK for Peninsula, then why can’t it be used for Nepean?” Blackford said. “Frankston Park is the home of local footy grand finals and it should be played there, especially if it is available. The league didn’t provide any reasoning or justification to the venue selections. Hastings has been trying for years to get the finals played there, however, not having netball courts has always been the issue. It’s not a problem for them anymore with courts going in last year. Nepean Netball will be played at the same venues, while Peninsula netball will all be played at Chelsea, which flies in the face of having netball and football at the same location.

Hillmen beat Rye in drama filled game NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt RED HILL overcame a drama-filled match against Rye to win by 32 points in the Nepean League match of the round. The Hillmen lost Jayden Pain with a hamstring injury and Jake Mold with a knee in the opening term of the clash and played out the remainder of the game without rotations on the bench. Smart forward Sean Holmes also played the match with a wrist injury while Nick Bateman was knocked out in the second quarter but was forced to keep playing. The drama didn’t stop with Red Hill, however, who went on to win 10.13 (73) to 5.11 (41). Rye lost Matty Sibberas (back spasms) and Sam Smith (calf) in the warm-up and then Andrew Dunn went off with a knee injury in the first quarter. Fortunately for the Demons, they were able to replace Sibberas and Smith before the first bounce. Jarryd Kirkwood played in the reserves and then played seniors, while Brock Rawlinson, who’s coming back from a groin injury, was forced to borrow boots and gear from a teammate so that he could come into the side. The Demons also lost Aaron Findlay for 15 minutes after he was sent off in

the incident that saw Bateman knocked unconscious. The Hillmen never looked effected by the events that unfolded earlier. They were committed, disciplined, desperate and structured, something that couldn’t be said for Rye. The win was even more impressive for the Hillmen considering the events of the week. Coach Tony Blackford called off training on Tuesday night because 15 senior players went down with sickness. “It might have been a blessing because we ran out the game very well and they looked fresh and up for the contest,” Blackford said. The Hillmen had some standout performances. Jimmy McCall was superb in the ruck against Rhett Sutton, Harry Larwill provided enormous grunt and drive from half back and Marcus Dal Lago completely shut-down Ryan Semmel, who had no effect on the game at all. Michael Dillon was the best player on the ground. Sam Smith was supposed to tag him, however, when he went out of the side, no-one else went near him. Dillon did as he liked and was left to his own devices. You would have thought someone would take responsibility. Rye is a one way, selfish team. When the Demons controlled the footy, which wasn’t often mind you,

performers on Saturday while David Hirst was also at his best. Jake Anderson was good again for the Yabbies up front with three goals while Tyson Sparkes and Adrian Clay were outstanding performers yet again. Sorrento had little problem getting over the line against Pearcedale on Saturday, booting 24.13 (157) to 6.7 (43). Leigh Poholke was superb again with six goals while Troy Schwarze and Kayle Stringer-Morris had the ball on a string. Matty Vagg and Pat Heijden were the best of the Dales. In the final game, Crib Point maintained its position at the top of the Nepean League ladder with a 14.14 (98) to 11.9 (75) win against Hastings. The Magpies jumped the home side in the opening term, opened up a 19-point quarter time lead and were never headed from that point on. Kyle Arnott was given an opportunity in the seniors after some good form in the reserves and responded with a seven goal, best on ground performance. Dean Warry and Brad Arnold were brilliant yet again and Matty Sloper did a job in defence. Dale Alanis booted four for the Blues and Jake Hewitt kicked three while Peter Mawson and Josh Mulheron worked hard around the ground.

nothing. At half time, the score was 69 to 15. The Buds came home in the second half booting 10 goals to eight, however, they were never in the hunt. They went down 12.6 (78) to 18.17 (125). Anthony Bruhn booted five for the Tigers and Paul Minchington collected his second best on ground in as many weeks with three majors and a dominant performance. Tom Baker kicked three for the Buds while Sam Krumeich was named the Buds’ best player. Devon Meadows moved to eighth place on the ladder, leapfrogging Somerville and Frankston Bombers after belting the Bombers 15.15 (105) to 8.1 (49) on Saturday. Pat Harmes and Alex and Chris Doria dominated the match for the Panthers while Jack Bow booted three goals. Duncan Proud booted three for the Bombers and was clearly amongst his side’s best, while Mitch Bosward and Sam Drake worked hard. Adrian Ridout made it 18 goals in three matches after booting eight in Somerville’s 28.17 (185) to 12.6 (78) win over Tyabb. Ridout has booted bags of six, four and eight in his only three games this season. Jedd Sutton and Rowan Hogenbirk were also dominant

they looked fantastic, streaming forward, working hard to get to the next contest, hitting packs hard and being creative. When the Hillmen had control of the footy, the Demons lacked desire and an appetite for the ball. They left their opponents to do what they liked and were completely unaccountable. Some even failed to give a second effort once they lost a contest. That didn’t go for everyone though. The skipper (Sutton) was heard on a number of occasions barking instructions, especially to those playing on the ball, but his insistence fell on deaf ears. On paper, Rye looked so much more dangerous than Red Hill. It matters little though when they don’t have a ‘team first’ attitude. There is a group of players that are there for themselves and clearly don’t have any care or respect for those around them. The likes of Leigh Morse, Matt McIndoe, Ben Cain, Sutton and Ryan Taylor don’t fall into that category – they gave their all. Red Hill remains in third position, a game clear of Dromana. Rye is still two games clear in fifth spot. Dromana overcame three losses in a row, smashing Rosebud to the tune of 47 points. The damage was done in the first quarter when the Tigers kicked 7.5 to
