Angling ban bid

Ocean Grove sisters on run to national titles BY KIM WATERS A TRIP to Brisbane to compete in national cross-country championships would daunt most adult runners but two pre-teen Ocean Grove sisters are taking it in their stride. Corrin and Heidi Demeo will join 10 other Victorian runners from their age groups at the championships in Brisbane on August 21. Mother Belinda said the 11- and 12-year-olds had already racked up plenty of medals and trophies between them. Corrin was state under12s champion and Heidi finished sixth in Victorian under-10 trials, Ms Demeo beamed. “Both girls just love running and playing sport, so they see Brisbane as a chance to have fun.” The girls would also compete in the Victorian relay team at the event, she said. “We’re just so proud of them both.” Corrin hoped her nerves would settle before the event but was looking forward to competing with her sister. “I always get pretty nervous before an event, especially the night before,” she said. “It’s really nice to compete at the same events and we congratulate each other when we win. As the big sister, I give Heidi tips and help her out sometimes.” Despite her status as state cross country champion, Corrin was modest about her prospects of becoming a professional athlete. “I don’t know if that will ever happen because it’s really hard to do. “It’s a good dream, though, to want to go to the Olympics or something.” Corrin said the sisters were “very excited” about the upcoming event. “It’s pretty cool and we’re looking forward to it.”

BY KIM WATERS BELLARINE Peninsula anglers fear a push for a marine park off Clifton Springs could “lock” them out of Corio Bay, according to a spokesman for anglers. St Leonards Angling club secretary Phil Walters rejected Victorian National Parks Association’s (VNPA) claims that recreational fishing off Clifton Springs was a key threat to marine biodiversity. Mr Walters said the VNPA’s demand for a marine park lacked scientific backing. “To say that recreational fishing is a threat to marine biodiversity and to compare it with global warming is blowing this issue way out of proportion,” Mr Walters said. “If there was a genuine reason for this marine park in Clifton Springs then all the anglers in the area would be more than happy to stop fishing at the site. “But we have yet to see any scientific evidence to prove that fishing is threatening the environment or to prove that marine parks help increase biodiversity.” VRFish executive officer Christopher Collins was “deeply concerned” about VNPA’s demand for the park and dozens of others around Victoria’s coastline. “As the peak recreational fishing body in Victoria we are totally opposed to this,” Mr Collins said. “Already there is about five per cent of Victoria’s coast locked up

by marine parks and they want to increase that by another 20 per cent. “Since this first happened in 2002 there has been no quantifiable data to prove whether the parks have had any positive affect on sustainability.” VNPA marine and coastal project officer Simon Branigan defended the parks push, saying the association was not “anti-fishing”. “Marine national parks are the most effective and efficient way to protect unique habitats,” Mr Branigan said. “There is overwhelming scientific evidence from around the world which shows that marine national parks protect biodiversity and increase resilience to other threats like marine pests and even increase fish stocks.” Mr Branigan said a comprehensive scientific review of Victoria’s marine habitat values and threats was due for release in “the next few weeks”. The review identified Clifton Springs as a “conservation priority area”, he said. Environment and Climate Change Minister Gavin Jennings said State Government had “no plans” to create new marine parks. But he said VNPA’s request for 20 new marine parks would take “some time to analyse” before the Government could make a firm decision.

Search underway for elusive parrot TEAMS will sweep the countryside around Lake Connewarre from this weekend in the search for one of Australia’s rarest birds. Department of Sustainability and Environment biodiversity officer Rachel Sims said only 50 orange-bellied parrots remained in the wild, with several spotted at the lake. “We know the wild population is in decline because the proportion of females breeding in the wild is very low,” Ms Sims said. “An important early task for the recovery team in addressing this is to locate as many of the birds as possible. After the birds are located we need to see where we can help them to breed in the wild and one of the first things we do is work out whether there’s a need for supplementary food at their winter feeding areas.” Ms Sims said a recovery team would transfer some juvenile birds from the wild to build on captive breeding stock. “We have a captive breeding program in place, which, given the serious threat to the wild population, is very critical to the parrot’s survival.” Bellarine Peninsula Orange-bellied Parrot Working Group coordinator Craig Morley said a recent sighting of three adults and one juvenile parrot at Lake Connewarre was “very exciting”. Volunteers possibly sighted a fifth parrot at Breamlea during the last survey, Mr Morley said. “This sighting tells us they’re still using this area, which has been a stronghold in the bird’s wintering range for many years.” Mr Morley said volunteers were invited to participate in this weekend’s survey.

Road tragedy adds lingering ingredient to Masterchef

POLICE have appealed for information about how a Corio man lost sight in one eye and suffered serious head injuries during an apparent assault. Ben Jacobs, 20, told police he had no recollection of how he sustained the injuries after a boozy evening with friends on the weekend.

Milkbar robbed POLICE are hunting a robber who used a carving knife to threaten a female attendant at a Newcomb milkbar where a man was stabbed to death three years ago. Police alleged the Caucasian man, who was about 180cm with a dark moustache, stole cash before fleeing the Breakwater Road shop about 7.40am Saturday.

Diver dies A SCUBA diver has died and three others have suffered the bends after trying to rescue him during a diving accident off Queenscliff. Police said the 49-year-old was in a group of 17 on a dive charter at a shipwreck site when he was pulled unconscious from the water on Saturday morning.

Labor odds ‘shorten’ in Corangamite fight BY ERIN PEARSON MEMBER for Corangamite Darren Cheeseman is firming as favourite in one of Australia’s most marginal seats ahead of the federal election, according to bookies. Two of the countries leading online bookmakers now have him in front of his Liberal candidate despite her claims this week he was “misleading” the electorate with campaign advertisements and running from debate challenges. Sportsbet has reversed its odds to rank Mr Cheeseman favourite against the Liberals’ Sarah Henderson $1.60 to $2. Last week Sportsbet had Ms Henderson as favourite at $1.70 to $1.85. The other bookie, Sportingbet, has maintained last week’s odds of $1.75 to $2.05 in favour of Mr Cheeseman. He holds Corangamite with a margin of .8 per cent after defeating veteran MP Stewart McArthur at the 2007 election. Ms Henderson, a lawyer and former

Mr Cheeseman rubbished Ms Henderson’s attacks as “ludicrous”. “The Liberal candidate is focussed on the most irrelevant, nit-picking issues and refusing to release any major policies,” he said. “I’m working flat-out trying to win more major projects for our region and to get out on the street to talk to people about the dangers of returning to work choices and the foolishness of Tony Abbott in axing the entire renewable energy fund.” Mr Cheeseman said he had already publicly debated Ms Henderson at a business network breakfast in Geelong earlie this year. “There will be at least two other debates in the coming months, with one at a climate change forum in Geelong,” he said. Media reports of the business network forum debate had Ms Henderson as the winner.

THE LINGERING impact of a Geelong road death will be driven home to Masterchef viewers on Sunday as part of a new Traffic Accident Commission campaign. The TAC said the campaign would screen a three-minute montage of the stories of the people still struggling with the death of 19year-old Luke Robinson earlier this year. Mr Robinson died in a car accident on Anakie Road in March. The TAC said the montage explored the impact of the accident from the perspective of survivors, eyewitnesses, family, friends, emergency workers, work colleagues and others still coming to terms with the tragedy. TAC chief executive officer Janet Dore said The Ripple Effect was one of the most emotionally compelling campaigns in the TAC’s 20 years. “The Robinsons have harnessed their grief over the loss of their son, Luke, in the most constructive of ways by becoming passionate road safety advocates,” Ms Dore said. “The TAC is very thankful to them for having the courage and strength to be involved.” Mr Robinson’s father, Norm, said family and friends agreed to be in the campaign to raise awareness of the widespread impact of speed-related deaths. The TAC nominates speed as the biggest killer on the state’s roads. The campaign will run until August 1 across all regional and metropolitan media. “The TAC hopes The Ripple Effect campaign helps make speeding as socially unacceptable as drink driving,” Ms Dore said. “Don’t let it be too late for you or your loved ones – remember Luke Robinson and slow down.”

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A HISTORIC vicarage in Geelong West could make way for a supermarket after state Planning Minister Justin Madden refused to protect it with heritage controls. The St John’s vicarage is on a site that budget supermarket chain ALDI has bought and earmarked for redevelopment. Without heritage controls on the site ALDI would only have to apply for a standard demolition permit, leaving City of Greater Geelong with 15 days to consider the application. Council voted in January to adopt strict heritage overlays on the site in a bid to force ALDI to

retain the vicarage as part of the redevelopment. But Aldi said inclusion of the vicarage would be “terminal” to the supermarket proposal. Council wrote to Mr Madden in March requesting ministerial authorisation for interim protection while permanent measures were developed based on a heritage study of Geelong West’s Ashby precinct. Mr Madden this month approved preparation of a permanent heritage overlay but excluded the Aldi site. Mr Madden told council that an advisory committee considering the ALDI proposal would assess the heritage value of the site.

Council’s request for interim protection would not be considered until the permanent overlay was exhibited, Mr Madden told council. Former ALDI property director Nigel Uren told council earlier this year that adoption of heritage overlays could lead to a “potentially protracted and costly legal battle”. National Trust Geelong region branch president Jennifer Bantow said other sites included in the heritage overlay were similarly unprotected. A spokesperson for Mr Madden said interim heritage protection was unnecessary because no buildings were at immediate threat.

The company has also cut 3.6 metres from the height of its building proposed to face Surf Coast Highway from a new business park in the town’s north. The building would now stand eight metres high under the amended plan lodged with Surf Coast Shire. Bunnings also cut 135sqm from its sales area.

More time for say on state’s housing BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN RESIDENTS have won more time to have their say on plans for public and affordable housing including blocks of units up to four storeys high at Norlane. A State Government spokesperson said residents would soon be advised they now had until August 27 to lodge submissions. The consultation period was initially scheduled to finish at the end of this month. The Government must advertise the plans because it has to amend Geelong’s planning scheme for the project to go ahead. The $32 million plan includes 60 public houses and 100 affordable homes. Objectors have a Facebook page called Norlane Sardine Housing Project with 145 friends. They have gathered more than 50

One precinct centres on Camelia Cres and the other on Warrawee Ave. Objector Michael McDonald said most of the houses in the precincts were privately owned. “We’re worried about what the future

holds,” he said. Mr McDonald said residents were also angry at having to deal with the Government rather than their council on a planning issue. “We pay our rates to the City of Greater Geelong, so the City should shoulder this responsibility.” Government spokesperson Rebecca Tucker said all plans were still conceptual, with nothing concrete. ”We want feedback from the community in shaping this important project.” A Department of Planning and Community Development website said the Planning Minister would consider submissions received by August 27 before making a decision.

RENAME MAGPIE COURT TO MIDDEN TERRACE

BARWON HEADS TRAFFIC AND PARKING STUDY The Barwon Heads Traffic and Parking Study was recently adopted by Council and identified that Clifford Parade between Hitchcock Avenue and Grove Road experiences traffic congestion and blockages at times. Clifford Parade is not wide enough to support two-way traffic when cars are parked on both sides. As a result, the City proposes to undertake a three month trial restriction of one-way traffic only in Clifford Parade, westbound. This means that traffic will only be allowed to flow from Hitchcock Avenue towards Grove Road for the duration of the three month trial period. If the measures are regarded to be successful, the changes will be implemented permanently.

BY ERIN PEARSON WHILE most offices across the country are banning social networking sites, Barwon Health is encouraging employees and patients to jump on-line. Barwon Health launched its Facebook account last week, aiming to help the community stay in touch with its services. Communications director Kate Nelson said organisations ignored the benefits of utilising social media sites at their “own peril”. “Bad media reports about social networking sites and a generation gap made convincing the hospital board to take on the idea challenging but we just had to get on board,” she said. “People want to talk about health and we feel it’s a priority to provide people with an area to talk about it.” Ms Nelson said she believed Geelong now had Australia’s first public health network on Facebook. “Ballarat and The Alfred hospitals are on Twitter but we don’t think any others are on Facebook,” she said. The page would also help Barwon Health communicate with its workforce of 5000. Barwon Health’s Facebook page, Comms Geelong, has been running as a test since the first week in June. The page has accumulated 42

TEMPORARY BRIDGE WORKS TO START SOON

CI230710R

Event organisers will shortly begin work on a temporary bridge at Queens Park to stage the race. The existing single lane Queens Bridge is too narrow for the safe running of the event so a temporary Bailey bridge will be installed. The bridge will be located north (upriver) of the existing single lane bridge. The western approach road will be routed north of the toilet block at Queens Park. Once the championships are finished the temporary bridge will be disassembled and the site returned to its original condition.

MP attacked over leaked staff email BY KIM WATERS A LEAKED office email has revealed Bellarine MP Lisa Neville as “out of touch” with her electorate, according to a political opponent. Liberal candidate for Bellarine Kurt Reiter said the email demonstrated Ms Neville regularly relied on staff to tell her of constituents she could talk about in parliament. The email said: “Seriously, this is not easy and is often thrown to (name deleted) at the last minute - if you have any ideas about constituents about whom Lisa can speak in parliament, could you let her know, please”. Mr Reiter said the email revealed the “inner workings” of Ms Neville’s office. She was an MP “out of touch

Approachable: Lisa Neville. with her community”, he said. “Ms Neville was elected to represent the people of Bellarine and it is clear she spends little time in her com-

munity talking to residents, otherwise she would not have to rely on her staff to organise her Member Statement for Parliament. “If Ms Neville actually took the time to talk to residents she would know there are thousands of issues that concern residents in Bellarine, including a lack of funds to maintain roads, dissatisfaction with foreshore management and a need to get stage one of (Portarlington’s) safe harbour project moving, to list just a few. “People of the Bellarine want regular, unfettered access to their State Government representative, to be able to raise any issue and to ask any question free from bureaucratic interference and process.” But Ms Neville, the state’s Community Services and

Mental Health Minister, said she took her role as Member for Bellarine “very seriously”. “I speak regularly in parliament to acknowledge the great work of people who live on the Bellarine and I will continue to do that instead of engaging in political mudslinging like the opposition,” Ms Neville said. Portarlington Community Association president John Turner backed Ms Neville’s representation of Bellarine. “I’m sure every politician could be accused of not doing enough for their community,” Mr Turner said. “I haven’t had any difficulties talking to Lisa and I’ve always found her to be approachable and to listen. “We don’t have any evidence to say she is out of touch with the community.”

The Independent, Friday July 23, 2010.

My racing days of thunder Local Legends JOHN VAN KLAVEREN LIKE most teenage boys, Torquay’s Paul Andrews was interested in anything that went vroom. Unlike most teenage boys, he had the opportunity of turning his interest into a lifelong passion for motor sport. Looking back, he wryly admits he could have chosen a less expensive or more forgiving interest. “Everything I’ve ever done in motor sport has been on the smell of an oily rag – but there’s also a strange satisfaction in achieving success from miniscule resources,” he reflects. His father was a hoarder and bought old cars, stashing them in the family’s Pascoe Vale backyard. “We had FB and EK Holdens littering the yard because dad kept them as his own spare parts shop,” Paul remembers, “so it didn’t take much for me to start pottering around with bits and pieces. “I went to the library and borrowed the manuals and virtually became my father’s in-house mechanic.” Paul went through all the self-taught mechanics lessons – he pulled out engines on a block and tackle over a tree branch, had parts that came out but refused to go back in and generally had to find out by trial and error. “Dad convinced me to do my apprenticeship as an auto electrician and I got a job at a local workshop. “The son of the owner was into drag racing and had a bit of money to invest in the sport, which I did-

Like father, like son: Paul and Scott Andrews with their racing Commodore. Picture: John Conway n’t, so I used to go along to the meetings and help. “I got interested in motorcycles, mainly because they were cheaper to race. Calder (raceway) had street races then and I used to race my bike there.” Not long after, a mate of Paul’s approached him with an offer. “He’d bought a rundown service station at Torquay and asked me whether I wanted to manage it for him. “I didn’t even know where Torquay was at that

stage. Turns out I was a sea changer before it was even invented.” Paul recalls a total of five customers on his first day at the former servo, on the corner of Bristol Rd and the highway. But after seven years he had built a brisk trade and felt he could afford some time to get back into the motorbike drag racing scene. “The sport was more professional, so I had to get more professional in my approach,” Paul says.

NEED CASH

“We progressed to owning a team and travelled around Australia on the drag racing circuit.” Paul constantly found himself up against teams with significantly larger budgets than his but his dogged competitive streak refused to let him use his limited finances as an excuse. He did well enough to win two Australian Drag Racing titles in the competition motorcycle class and won three trips to the USA as prizes. Paul also claimed various speed records along the way and gathered “a lot of dusty trophies”. His approach to competition remains unchanged now as director of Andrews Motorsport team in car racing’s Commodore Cup class. Paul started the team specifically to give 19-year-old son Scott a chance to realise his motor sport dream. “I started taking Scott with me to the drag races and then he got into go-kart racing, so I sold the drag bike to finance the tilt at karting. “It’s a pleasure to watch your son develop and learn.” Paul is justifiably proud of Scott’s achievements, arguably the fastest improver in Australian motor sport. Scott made a big enough impression to be invited to take a V8 Supercars test drive. In his second season he won pole position for all three Commodore Cup races so far this year, set fastest lap times and had a win, a second and a third to sit second in standings. Paul is also getting used to selling stuff to keep financing the dream – he sold his ute to make sure the team could compete well in the final races of the season. “We’re committed to this season and we’ll see what happens next year,” Paul says philosophically. “If there’s anyone out there looking for a great sponsorship deal…”

I WRITE regarding a story by Erin Pearson in last week’s Independent, headlined ‘Welcome for ambos review’. On July 6 my husband had a bad fall on a footpath on Yarra Street and was bleeding profusely from the nose. A lady from Geelong Hospital immediately phoned 000 for an ambulance and gave a full account of what had happened. A man named John, part of a family from Miners Rest having a day in Geelong, helped me lift my husband and seat him on his walking aid. John’s wife, Allison, had first-aid training and sprang into action to help stop the bleeding. Another call was made to 000 when my hubby began to shake with cold in the freezing wind, from which I was trying to shield him while also trying to direct foot traffic around the blood puddle. Along came a beautiful lady named Mary, bless her. She cleared the blood off my shoes, with the significance not hitting me for a day or two. She also made another call to 000. Forty minutes later an ambulance arrived from Lara. We were only around the corner from the hospital. We certainly need an ambulance for central Geelong. All is well now. That long wait was made easier by these very good Samaritans. Jean Walters Bell Post Hill

Reserve judgement GREAT Ocean Road Coast Committee chair John Carlile insulted past members of the former Torquay Public Reserves with his statement that Torquay’s public caravan park had been untouched for 100 years (Independent, July 9). About 55 years ago the reserves’ secretary worked on a voluntary basis along with Torquay businesspeople elected to the organisation. Since then the toilet blocks have mostly been replaced twice and the park had

undergone water, power and road sealing works. Prior to these works high-powered businesspeople from Melbourne loved to come down to rough it. They did not want a home away from home, as the park is now. After 27 and a half years on the committee, I spat the dummy one night due to the fact twits in Spring Street supposedly knew more than we locals. We were to be replaced by more twits from Spring Street. I vowed to take my grievance to the top, which I did with the 100 per cent backing of the committee. Under the new committee more than $80,000 was spent on a toilet block on the common land. The following year it was demolished. A cypress tree in Cosy Corner’s car park had its surface roots cut on three sides. I warned the tree would fold on the next wet day, which it did, damaging a car. I could add much more but, in summary, Great Ocean Road Coast Committee is top heavy with money and has no respect for its pockets. Cliff Winkler Torquay

Residents forgotten I WANT to know what our political leader and Vicroads are going to do about the issue of moving section 4C of Geelong’s ring road to Boundary Road. I have lived in Grovedale for about 10 years and am distressed at the thought of the freeway being built right next door to residential properties at Grovedale. I suffer asthma and am worried about the increased toxic fumes and pollution that building the freeway so close to our homes will bring. For what I can see and hear from other residents, a lot of us are very upset about this issue and the fact we weren’t consulted about it makes it even worse. Fair go for residents of Grovedale - we deserve the right and respect to be validated by Vicroads and politicians on this extremely important issue to our community. Lesley Hansen Grovedale

I predict a riot WHEN the Ocean Grove Fire Brigade moved to new premises last year the vacated fire station in the heart of old Ocean Grove was an ideal, much-needed piece of social infrastructure in our designated growth corridor. After much pleading to Member for Bellarine Lisa Neville to no avail, the old fire station was auctioned off. I don’t know whether she didn’t share the vision of the campaigning residents or it was just too hard to deal with the bureaucracy but the perfect men’s shed is now in private hands to be developed (Independent, July 9). With urban sprawl on the march, medium-density housing encouraged with no space to exercise the mind and no public transport, don’t be surprised when the inmates riot. John Bowman Ocean Grove

The Greens option THE LIBERAL and Labor parties have been around for a while but it hasn’t always been so and it does not need to be for much longer. For the past several elections the Greens have run candidates in every seat in the country. Polls suggest that a growing 13 to 15 per cent of voters now vote green. It is often reported that Australians are dissatisfied with both major parties, so why not vote for the now-long-established third party? This year is on track to being the hottest on the planet since records began. On the issue of climate change alone, the Greens are streets ahead of the other parties. The Greens want to put a price on carbon because if we don’t our major competitors are going to be even more ahead of us than they already are in regards to alternative energy. People have always moved quicker than their governments, so let’s give a different mob a go. Leigh Adamson Belmont

Know-all politicians engineered water shortage

Just like McDonald’s I READ the Independent’s story about a Bunnings store proposed for Torquay and would like to add my thoughts on the issue. After my husband and I moved to Torquay in 1991 we first went to the town’s Mitre 10 for many and varied products but have only been able to obtain about half of them because they have been unavailable. So where did we have to go? Let’s guess - Bunnings Waurn Ponds. At Bunnings we have been able to buy our requirements, which are not always big-ticket items. It would be really convenient and cheaper if we did not have to travel to purchase minor pieces of equipment. When McDonald’s was coming to Torquay it was, to some residents, going to be the thin end of the wedge before all other fast food outlets came thick and fast but this has not eventuated. Isabel Boxshall Torquay

Stand on planning FOR MINE, the upshot of last week’s public meeting on the future of the Geelong Golf Club narrowed itself down to two things: Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal and Planning Minister Justin Madden. There are ways around all the mechanisms available to council that will inevitably lead to it becoming powerless on planning issues. City of Greater Geelong is a Labor-leaning council to boot, presaging imminent gloom. Councillors Barbara Abley and Stretch and Eddy Kontelj are to be lauded for their stand (Independent, July 9, 16) but they are dealing with a State Government in which the Department of Justice was formerly known, and perhaps still is, as Business Unit 19. This clearly indicates a pro-business/prodeveloper government, especially given its and Mr Madden’s past performances. If, as the councillors say, a stand must be

And the Barwon River will continue to flow while the Moorabool River can recover from environmental vandalism. Gordon Alderson North Geelong

Taxes going forward

Rising cost of Labor

THE SAD fact is that for many averageincome Australians it’s not really going to matter all that much if we vote to change Federal Government or just stick with the same bozos we have now. More and more people are going to be left struggling with increasing costs of electricity, water, gas, food and health. More people are going to be left underinsured and even uninsured because they can’t keep up with the increasing costs of insurance while governments continues to tax us with the GST, stamp duty plus a fire levy on our policies. Every year council rates go up and every year more people struggle to pay the extra tax. The shortage of public housing and the massive increases in private rental costs have left more people homeless or just couch surfing with their possessions scattered around in someone’s shed. More people are now being forced to seek help from charitable organisations for food and more people are having their electricity disconnected and water restricted because they are unable to pay their bills. Labor’s latest catchcry may well be ‘Moving Australia forward’ but far too many of us are stuck going backward in a spiralling descent of debt and despair. Sonia Hamill Newtown

THE ELECTION gives the people of Corio electorate a choice between the better government we all deserve or more of the same. The rising cost of living, job insecurity, increasing violent crime and the protection of our local environment are important issues in Corio. Across the electorate, families are worried about the rising cost of electricity, water, gas. Petrol and grocery prices are also rising. On too many Mondays residents wake to headlines in the press about violent crime in central Geelong. The violence is causing businesses to relocate, resulting in fewer jobs and opportunities. Labor made many promises about tackling violence in Geelong but has failed to properly resource crime-fighting in the city. The Labor Government cancelled the Liberals’ plans for security cameras in central Geelong, redirecting the funds to a still-non-existent police outpost in Market Square. Labor made that promise three years ago; one in a long line of broken promises for Geelong. The coalition will take real action to tackle crime in Geelong. We will ensure local crime-fighters have the resources they need to deal with violent offenders. The coalition has a strong record of achievement. We have a plan to take real HAVE action on the issues that matter to the peo- Mail: ple of Corio. Email: The only way Corio people can achieve their potential is for the Federal Fax:

POLITICIANS should butt out of decisions about how and when Barwon Water harvests drinking water. It is irksome that Labor MP Michael Crutchfield and the Green’s Greg Barber think they know best on these matters (Independent, July 16). Mr Crutchfield has done a monumental backflip to consent to building the previously-no-way Dewing Creek weir. In still opposing this weir, Mr Barber apparently doesn’t care about Barwon Water’s water-restricted customers. Barwon Water has abundant freshwater to harvest but politicians forced it to unsustainably pump energy-inten-

Without time for breakfast or lunch, appetites can be hit with a house-made jelly slice or a raspberry and white chocolate muffin.

The cafe group management is concentrating on the function market with several locations available even at short notice. Soft’s food is affordable but still fresh and creative.

The warm colours, relaxed atmosphere and attentive staff create a recipe winning the hearts of many Geelong cafe lovers.

A range of selected leaf tea, white hot chocolate and three flavours of chai tea latte style are also available. The main focus on food is to provide selections that are fresh, tasty and affordable. “We are striving to take great care in our delivery of food and beverage, aiming for quick service and superb coffee,” Craig says.

Fox on the run to evening at GPAC BY ERIN PEARSON LITERARY children’s masterpiece Fox will come to life on stage in Geelong this weekend. Margaret Wild and Ron Brookes’ story is celebrating its 10th anniversary since publication with a travelling operatic performance. The story follows the lives of friends Dog and Magpie after a bushfire claimed the bird’s wings. Magpie rediscovers the sensation of flying as she rides atop her one-eyed friend as he runs through the bush. However, the title name character then arrives to tempt Magpie with an even faster ride. The tale explores themes of desire, loyalty and friendship after Fox dumps Magpie far out in the desert. Abandoned and alone, she begins the long journey home. David Buckley, who plays Dog, said the production would use “bold costumes and large, crazy wings” to replicate the book’s characters. “I think the audience will see it as a little-larger-than-life production,” he said. “It’s so simply written but the themes are so huge.

Loyalty: Children’s book Fox comes to life on stage this weekend.

“Fox, he’s a bit jealous of the friendship.” Buckley said playing the character of Dog came with its own challenges “He’s very touching and very heartfelt and I think Dog’s character has had an influence on me as a person, just as I have with my experiences on him as a character,” he said. “Even now I’m still finding

out about the issues and themes in the play – they’re problems people face in childhood and adulthood.” Buckley said he was amazed how well audiences of all ages had received the stage adaptation. “One of the most surprising things I’ve found is how well children have been able to understand the themes,” he said.

“Being an opera, you wouldn’t always think children would be interested but we met a girl in Carnarvon, in Western Australia, who, after the show, drew a picture for us and her mother said she was explaining what was happening on stage. “It’s such a fun show.” Geelong Performing Arts Centre will feature Fox on Saturday night.

Swim lessons’ double boost tarting swimming lessons at the earliest possible age improves motor skills both in the water and out, according to a new study. The international study, published in Child: Care Health and Development in May, compared 19 baby swimmers againsts control group of the same amount of children who had not participated in swimming as infants. Researchers Hermundur Sigmundsson and Brian Hopkins ensured all other factors, such as the education and economic status of the children’s parents, were the same. The baby swimmers had participated in swimming classes for two hours a week from the age of two to three months until they were about seven months old. Typical sessions included activities such as helping the babies go underwater, jump from the pool edge and balancing on the hand of a parent while reaching for an object. The study later tested the two groups when they were both aged five on similar exercises, such as balancing on one foot, skipping rope and catching a beanbag. Sigmundsson said the results were clear. “Baby swimmers were the best in exercises that related to balance and the ability to reach for things,” Sigmundsson said. “It is incredibly exciting that specific training for young babies has an effect later in life. Development is a dynamic interplay between maturation, growth,

Screen Actors Australia John Henderson is an actor, director and musician with many credits to his name. Since 2007, he’s been the Director of Screen Actors Geelong; a drama school that has helped hundreds of local actors achieve their dreams of working in film and television. This year, John travelled to Hollywood to study at the prestigious Stella Adler Academy of Acting. “It was such an amazing experience and has changed the way I tackle drama classes at Screen Actors. All my leading teachers have attended the Stella Adler program, so our students have a real advantage!” John trains a variety of students from the ages of 3 to 63. His studio offers classes for beginners, advanced and ‘social’ actors. “Drama is great fun, but there is also a discipline involved. I teach my actors to be passionate, inventive, professional and resilient – which are skills that relate to any industry.” Last year, John created ‘GeelongTV’ on YouTube, an online channel that provides a voice for local artists. The channel is updated weekly and continues to expand. John has a Bachelor of Arts (Communication Studies) and Bachelor of Teaching (Primary and Secondary) from Deakin University.

It’s a rare Dodge bit sad when I got it. “I drove it around for about six months to find out what condition it was in.” Norm discovered the motor was reasonably good but the wiring and paintwork were in poor condition and the chassis was cracked. GREG WANE “We found a bullet hole in the passenger-side door and some African coins decided to sell the car and after three behind the side panel.” Norm said. months of negotiations I ended up buying “All the motor needed was new seals it,” Norm explained. and a valve grind. I also put a new clutch The Dodge was built in Detroit and in and that was about it. exported to Pretoria in South Africa in “The Dodge’s six-cylinder 3569cc 1937 for a family who owned it right up engine is one of the most reliable ever until the early 1980s. built,” Norm said. “George had bought the car in South “That particular motor, the one in my Africa and had it shipped to Australia.” “I bought the car in 1996 but it was a car, was built from about 1934 right up until the early 1960s. They kept the same design motor right through – they couldn’t improve on it. “The motor was used in harvesters, forklifts and cars.” The car’s wiring concerned Norm the most. He managed to find a 1940 Dodge loom at a motor swap-meet in Footscray and he was able to strip and rewire it to suit the 1937 Dodge layout. The colour took some time to decide. Norm said the original colour was a pale metallic blue which didn’t suit the car. “My wife Coral and I had a look around at other cars for a colour idea. She wanted a burgundy colour, but I couldn’t find a burgundy that I liked. One day we spotted a car at a rally way over the other side of Flair: Sleek lines, a dickie seat and wheel spats made the car a chic the rally grounds. The colour really stood choice for stylish Americans in the 1930s. Picture: Greg Wane 50424 out and I said ‘that’s the colour I want’. A CHANCE meeting with an acquaintance in Melbourne in 1995 led Geelong’s Norm Lehmann to buy one of the rarest cars in the world — a 1937 Dodge D5 convertible. Norm has since discovered the car could be the only one of its type in Australia, with only nine others in the United States. Norm first saw the car at the Australia Day car rally in Melbourne in 1994. “About 12 months later, back in Melbourne again, I got talking to the car’s owner, George Wilford. “He had brought the car into Australia from South Africa for his son who had driven it around for a while, but George and his son had a falling out. “George mentioned to me that he had

Polish: It took Norm Lehmann some time to decide the final colour for his 1937 Dodge convertible. Picture: Greg Wane 50424 “It was actually a Mercedes Benz colour from the mid 1980s.” Norm said. To complete the 18-month-long restoration, bumpers, overriders and windscreen frame were rechromed, interior reupholstered and a new hood was added. Other factory original items from 1937 were retained including the override gearbox, glove box clock, wheel trims and twin windscreen wipers. The dashboard houses a cigarette lighter, ashtray and a receptacle to hold a cigarette packet. “The original factory-fitted radio still works. It’s got twin radio aerials mounted under the running boards. It runs quite well but it sucks the power out of the battery though,” Norm said. Norm drove the car regularly over the next 15 years and said he had little trouble with it. “It was only recently I had to do some

minor engine repairs. I replaced the little ends on the conrods and while I had the engine down I put in a new set of rings and big-end bearings. “The Dodge has proved to be a very good long distance car. We’ve been to Broken Hill twice, Wilpena Pound and Mt Kosciusko.” Norm believes there were about 1300 original cars built in 1937 “As far as I can work out mine is number 17 built. It’s stamped on the body. I’m not sure whether that means it’s the 17th car or 17th body built. “Apparently, there’s only nine left in America. I saw an advertisement for a Dodge in an American car magazine a couple of years ago and it claimed the car was only one of nine left in the world. “So that makes mine number 10, I suppose,” Norm declared.

Rob Jenner from Motorcycle Service Centre says the team is always keen to provide great service and expert solutions to problems. “In the past we’ve had a lot of enquiries about servicing and repairing power skis and we are now in a position to be able to do them alongside our normal motorcycle repair duties.” Rob says. “Our senior mechanic, Ryan Joslin, has a very keen interest in restoring and riding them as a hobby so he’ll be taking them on in the shop as a full-time addition to our well established motorcycle workshop service”. Having entered four bikes of the top five finishers in the 2009 Victorian Interclub Road Racing championship, including first and second place, Rob can offer racers and track-day riders expert help with all facets of sport bike and track bike service, set-up and performance enhancement. “Dirt bikes are well catered for with riders able to take advantage of many years of experience in repair and service. Particularly now with the riding season really starting to kick-off,” Rob says. Motorcycle Service Centre is a VACC-accredited workshop which provides manufacturer approved warranty and log-book servicing, for all makes of motorcycles, scooters, ATVs and PWCs from Japan, Europe and the United States. They cover all types of maintenance and repairs including restorative services, engine and transmission reconditioning, suspension overhaul, track-day set-ups and Vicroads’ road worthy certificate. The business is also an approved crash repairer working with Shannons, Swann, QBE and InsureMyRide among others.

ruckcar Rentals is an economical option when it’s time to get on the move. Whether it’s moving house or interstate freight, Truckcar Rentals has a vehicle fleet to accommodate even the biggest job. Customers can visit Truckcar Rentals at Corio or Colac to choose from a comprehensive range of passenger vehicles, light commercial vans, trucks or utes. Truckcar Rentals also stocks buses with seating for 12 to 22, a great idea for group outings with a designated driver. Owner Graeme Byrant says it also offers a series of small two-tonne vans, trucks and prime movers. “No job is too great or too small,” he says. “My staff are more than happy to assist customers when it comes to selecting the right vehicle for their job. “We also offer all our vehicles on long or shortterm leases.” Truckcar Rentals maintains all the fleet itself, giving client’s added peace of mind about reliability and safety. Locally owned and operated, Truckcar Rentals is a cheaper option than hiring a removalist. Truckcar Rentals is located at 215 Station Street, Corio, phone 5275 8288, Princes Highway, Colac West, phone 5231 1966 and 6 Walsh Road, Warrnambool, phone 5561 0003.

The Independent’s Jayne McKeon re-acquaints Westpac local business banker Renee Duncan with the role of an advertising account executive as part of the bank’s Day in Your Business program.

Local banker’s day at the Indy estpac local business banker Renae Duncan has gone back to her day job after trying her hand at being an advertising account executive as part of Westpac’s Day in Your Business program. “As the local business banker I am passionate about helping my customers succeed,” Renee says. “I learnt more by spending a day working in a local business than I do sitting behind a desk in a branch. It was great to roll-up my sleeves and learn about the unique issues faced by small businesses in Geelong”. The Day in Your Business program is part of Westpac’s ongoing support of small businesses across Australia, which includes the appointment of more than 400 local business bankers who are trained to deal with the specific needs of small businesses

in their community, providing proactive and practical advice. With many local business bankers previously having run their own business, they have a real insight into the everyday challenges and rewards that come with running a business. Independent advertising account executive Jayne McKeon says it’s not every day a local business banker comes to help support a business. Jayne thought the program was a real eye-opener. “When I was first approached by Renee to spend a day working alongside me I thought they were joking. However, it was a really good day and we both found it really valuable,” Jayne says. “Having the business banker come into my business really helped us both understand how we can better work together.”

Westpac is committed to helping equip Australia’s small business owners with the knowledge and guidance to help them achieve financial success by offering a range of financial education workshops, seminars and advice guides. In 2009 Westpac increased its financial education program by 30 per cent, with more than 9000 businesses attending sessions on everything from cash flow to business and succession planning. Westpac was recently named Money magazine’s Business Bank of the Year for the third year in a row. Westpac has 185 dedicated small business branches, which means customers get access to one name and one number for their business needs.

sport GFL battle heating up as six struggle to fit into five

Lara set to lose grip on finals TWO GEELONG Football League matches vie for game-of-the-round status this weekend as the rundown to the finals adds plenty of pressure to the six sides battling to make the final five. The Lara and Bell Park game out at the Snakepit probably has the most riding on it because the former will find its spot in the finals in jeopardy if it loses. The Cats have a poor percentage and, despite sitting in fourth spot, it is feasible St Josephs and Leopold will catch them by finals time and leave them hanging in sixth spot. This has been the case for a few weeks now and the Cats have responded accordingly, with all players lifting a notch to see the side beat highly rated South Barwon and St Mary’s in Lara’s past two outings. This kind of form gives it a realistic chance of beating top-placed Bell Park. If Lara can win it will jump to third spot, so any worries about missing finals action will be replaced by thoughts of premierships. Bell Park is the form side of the league, sitting two games clear at the top of the ladder and with enough talent to win a close one.

BFL

Football League’s game of the round. The Hawks beat Amateurs last week to secure top place but will forfeit this place if they can’t beat the Coutas. With Drysdale seeming to have Amateurs’ measure this year, it could be said the winner of this game will take on the title of premiership favourite. There is a lot to like about the Hawks, with Luke Matthews, Reece Holwell and Ben Carmichael the pick of a talented bunch. Queenscliff is also a gifted side that plays an attractive attacking brand of football. The Coutas have finally got full-forward Jon Ansell onto the field after a horror run of injuries and he and Eddie Grout will prove a handful for Hawk defenders. Drysdale is pumped at the moment and on home turf it should win. Other selections: Modewarre v BARWON HEADS, OCEAN GROVE v Anglesea, AMATEURS v Newcomb, TORQUAY v Portarlington.

Reigning premier and ladder leader Drysdale hosts second-placed Queenscliff in Bellarine

GDFL

Local Footy FRANK MASON The other game of interest is between South Barwon and St Mary’s at McDonalds Reserve. The winner will secure second spot on the ladder, which it should hold for the rest of the season. South Barwon has battled recently but should be back to its best and win. Other selections: Grovedale v COLAC, LEOPOLD v Newtown, ST ALBANS v North Shore, West Saints v ST JOSEPHS (Sunday).

Bell Post Hill has played itself into second spot on the ladder, with a series of good performances having the Panthers now considered a premiership fancy. They will further enhance their reputation if they can beat top-placed Werribee Centrals at Myers Reserve tomorrow. With Matt Jovanovic, Jamie Pyle, Robbie Cavka and David Holzfeind leading the way, maybe the Panthers can go one better than the last two seasons when they finished runner-up. Standing in their way is Werribee Centrals which has lost only one game for the year despite a run of injuries. Anthony Kitchen is in the best form of his career and is coming off a bag of nine goals. This will be a close one, with Werribee expected to just take the points. Other selections: Inverleigh v BANNOCKBURN, EAST GEELONG v North Geelong, Corio v WINCHELSEA, Geelong West v ANAKIE, Belmont Lions v THOMSON.

Swell time but little joy as surf anglers struggle to find salmon On the bite BRIAN LONG catch 22 squid on his past three trips. Fishing Corio Bay’s outer-harbour spoilgrounds at this time of the year is uncommon but brothers Nathan and Barry Bourke have had it all to themselves, catching some fantastic snapper on long drifts with soft plastics. Their best fish weighed 4.3kg but the brothers have taken any number of fish around 1kg. Steve Dmytrenko nailed two pinkies with soft plastics on Geelong’s waterfront, although he reported the fishing was slow. Paul Geoffrey used Gulp sandworms near the float plane where he hit a patch of trevalla, catching seven fish pushing 800g. Anglers fishing Rippleside Pier with soft plastics have been catching. Small snapper have dominated but trevalla have also been taken, mostly an hour either side of high tide. Anglers have been taking mostly small bream at Angelsea River, although lures were responsible for larger fish to 38cm. The biggest bream for the week was taken at Airey’s Inlet. The 42cm fish,

Anglesea angling: Brendan Sheedy, left, with a lure-caught 38cm bream and, above, Ben Hennessey with a 32cm fish caught on bait. which was one of a bag of four taken on Monday, was caught with a Smith Jade lure. In freshwater, Lake Bullen Merri rewarding anglers fishing Powerbait with many rainbow trout under 1kg. Trolling has continued to produce larger browns, with Jonathan Holmes nailing one of 3.1kg with a Tassie Devil in the color number Y48. He also caught rainbows ranging from 2kg down to around 400g. A number of angling clubs ran outings on the lake in the past week, finding the small rainbows great fun to catch. Closer to home, Wurdee Boluc

Reservoir has been fishing nicely for rainbow and brown trout. Lures such as Tiger minnows and Vibrax spinners have been working best, with bait anglers well-advised to use scrub worms. Two anglers I encountered fishing just near Queen’s Park Bridge for carp had caught six fish to around 4kg in just over and hour using corn and bread for bait. They put their success down to laying plenty of berley the day before.

BIG GROUND swells and offshore wind in the past week again produced sandy water, limiting opportunities for surf anglers to catch salmon. Fish were still taken at all the region’s renowned beaches when the water cleared sufficiently but only in smaller numbers than last week. Fairhaven and Eastern View struggled to produce quality fish due to extremely high tides and dirty water, with a few salmon caught during the first hour of the incoming tide. Danny Jacobs found the water a little cleaner at Stony Creek near Lorne where he landed around 20 fish on lure, most averaging 900g. Jim Cunningham also found clean water at the mouth of the St George River, catching fish to 850g with 15g baitfish lures on high tide. Jan Juc was mostly too rough but produced salmon to 1.5kg as the swell settled and conditions improved. Shaun Palmer fished Queenscliff’s cut with soft plastics to find trevally coming through in shoals. He caught two or three on consecutive casts with best fish 1.2kg. Swan Bay again rewarded patient anglers with gummy shark, although most were small fish to 6kg. Fresh squid and eel are the baits down this way, with all fish coming after dark on the run-up to high tide. Whiting continue to reward anglers, with Edwards Point producing good numbers of fish averaging 35cm. Joel McCallum has been walking the shoreline between the Clifton Springs boat ramp and Hermsley casting small, dark coloured squid jigs to

Netball courts ‘a safety risk’ BY KIM WATERS DRYSDALE netballers fear “dangerous” sporting facilities will result in a player injury. Peninsula Netball Association member Joan Twomey said the league had engaged in a two-year funding battle with City Hall for an upgrade of their dilapidated facilities in Granville Street. “At the moment the court doesn’t have very good run off, so if it rains or gets dirty the water and muck just stays there,” Twomey said. “The netball rings are so old and all deteriorating really badly, so we’ve been a bit afraid they’ll fall over. “We have four courts but have basically stopped using two of them because it’s just too dangerous.” Association president Lyn Yearwood said she had worked

with various City officers over the past two years to organise funding for the league. “We’ve been working with council but since we started the issue has been passed on to five different people and we’ve been beating our heads against a brick wall,” Yearwood said. “The major problem is a lack of consistency with the council. It’s been giving us a lot of headaches.” Yearwood said 300 netballers used the courts on Saturdays and 550 during a Wednesday night competition. “The courts aren’t wide enough by Netball Victoria standards and the posts have to come in and out so much that they’re basically unserviceable.” Yearwood said the association was ineligible for a latest round of funding from Sport and

Recreation Victoria. “Because we’re a separate association we can’t get any of the funding. The Drysdale football and netball club might get $60,000 for a new court but we can’t apply for that grant.” Council last week approved a City Hall submission to Sport and Recreation Victoria for a number of facilities in Geelong and on the Bellarine Peninsula. City sport and recreation manger Paul Jane said an officer was “currently working with Peninsula Netball Association” for funding. “The City has previously applied for funding in relation to this project but the application was unsuccessful,” Jane said. “We are currently developing an application for funding, to be submitted later in the year.”

Lifesavers scoop pool at awards SURF Coast and Bellarine Peninsula lifesavers have scooped the pool again at the sport’s annual state awards. Ocean Grove Surf Life Saving Club’s Matthew Burke won Lifesaver of the Year, while his club’s overall point score won Victorian Lifesaving Championships for the 11th year in a row. The club’s Guy Kinsey’s eight gold trophies at this year’s Victorian Lifesaving Championships led to him taking home an under-17 male athlete of the year award. Jan Juc SLSC’s Madelyn McDonald won under-

17 female athlete of the tear. Anglesea SLSC’s Hayley Atkins won female athlete of the year. Judges awarded a volunteer of the year award to Lorne SLSC’s Neil Morarty from Lorne SLSC. Life Saving Victoria president Mike Martin said he was proud of all the volunteers and athletes who contributed their time throughout the year. “The evening capped off what was another remarkable season in lifesaving and it is always fantastic to recognise Victoria’s dedicated volunteers who contribute so much,” he said.
