CEO appointments go to the next level ■ The City of Whittlesea’s appointment of Simon Overland as its new CEO sends a clear signal to Murrindindi Shire Council of the level at which it must approach the recruitment of its next Chief Executive.

Whittlesea announced on Thursday that Mr Overland, formerly the Chief Commissioner of Victoria Police, would become its CEO from next month.

Murrindindi Shire CEO Margaret Abbey announced in May that she will “retire”, but intends first to take accrued leave and other entitlements.

Murrindindi Shire Mayor Cr Charlie Bisset and her six colleagues appear to be in no hurry to seek its future executive leader to succeed Ms Abbey.

Despite Ms Abbey’s announcement in late May, two months have passed without any further elaboration by the Mayor or Councillors on what they intend to do about the Murrindindi Shire executive leadership position..

Last week’s announcement

by Whittlesea Mayor, Cr Ricky Kirkham, takes local government leadership to a new level.

Mr Overland has been working as the head of the Department of Justice in Tasmania, where he has been since he resigned from his role as Victoria's police chief in 2011.

Four years ago, Mr Overland’s salary in Tasmania was reported to be $280,000.

It was revealed last year that Ms Abbey was being paid $250,000 annually.

Ms Abbey’s original appointment in 2010 was financially assisted by the Brumby State Labor Government.

Her appointment was announced at the time by thenMayor, Cr Peter Beales, who has close Labor Party connections.

Ms Abbey was formerly Group Manager, Environment and Planning Services at Nillumbik Shire Council.

Council stated that Ms Abbey lives in Alexandra, although she retains a residence in suburban Greensborough.

City of Whittlesea’s announcement

■ This is the text of the Whittlesea City Council’s news release issued last Thursday: “Whittlesea City Council has announced the appointment of its new Chief Executive Officer, Simon Overland. This unanimous decision follows an extensive national recruitment process undertaken by McArthur and Council.

“Mayor Ricky Kirkham said it was an exciting time to lead our organisation.

"Simon comes to the City of Whittlesea with extensive experience in management, leadership and community service having served as the Secretary of the Department of Justice in Tasmania, and as the former Chief Commissioner of Victoria Police," Mayor Kirkham said.

"He has a passion for community development, quality service delivery and reforming organisations.

"As we continue to grow, it is essential we plan quality services and infrastructure for our established and new communities. Simon will be critical in ensuring the organisation meets these objectives.

"Our Councillor team looks forward to working with Simon over the coming years."

Simon Overland said he was excited to take on the challenge.

"I feel very honoured in accepting this important appointment. I am looking forward to working with Council, staff and the local community to deliver on Council's plans for the City of Whittlesea."

“Simon holds a Bachelor of Arts (University of Canberra), Bachelor of Laws (Australian National University) and chairs the Youth Support and Advocacy Service.

Mayor Kirkham thanked acting CEO Liana Thompson for her leadership over the last five months.

"On behalf of Council, I thank Liana for leading the organisation over the last five months. It has been a pleasure working closely with Liana to achieve outcomes for our community," he said.

“Simon Overland will commence as CEO on Monday, August 21.

“Acting CEO arrangements will remain in place until then.”

Busy time for local police ■ Kinglake Police attended a farm accident at Flowerdale, in which a man injured his arm.

The victim was taken by ambulance from the Spring Valley Rd area farm to hospital.

Yea CFA volunteers were amongst the first responders. ★ Police wish to speak with a man (image, at right) described as 30 to 40 years old, Australain, Caucasian, approx. 6ft tall, large to fat build, with short receding strawberry blonde hair, with green hazel eyes, light skinned with reddish cheeks and heavily freckled.

This follows a road rage incident at Hume Hwy, Wallan, last Wednesday (July 19) about 3.05pm. The offending vehicle swerved several times towards the victim forcing him to take evasive action to avoid a collision.

● Kristin Michaels, Yea Hospital Chair ■ More than two months ago - on May 18 - Yea and District Memorial Hospital and Seymour Health announced their proposed merger.

Yea Hospital Chair Kristin Michaels, an ambitious health industry career professional, indicated that a ‘due diligence’ process would take place over nine weeks.

Ms Michaels committed to keep in touch with the Yea community to keep people appraised on the important move.

There has been the publication of a pretty Merger Matters newsletter, and a guest appearance of Seymour Health CEO Chris McDonnell early this month at the Yea Hospital and Rosebank Auxiliary meeting.

Apart from that the public has received precious little on the subject of the proposed merger.

The merger has every appearance of a ‘done deal’.

Question remains ■ The Yea Hospital is one of the “healthiest and wealthiest” country hospitals in Victoria.

It has millions of dollars in reserves, a large portion of it raised over years by the Yea community.

with Ash Long, Editor “For the cause that lacks assistance, ‘Gainst the wrongs that need resistance For the future in the distance, And the good that we can do”

Council in Yea

● Jennifer Keast In The Local Paper’s interview with Ms Michaels in May, she said she was unaware of the reasons why local Board member Jennifer Keast resigned her position.

The Local Paper revealed the following week that Ms Keast had put her reasons in writing to the State Health Minister, with a copy to Ms Michaels.

Ms Keast resigned because she was not satisfied with the planned merger, and what it would mean to the people of Yea. The Yea community silence has been deafening.

■ It looks likely that the Murrindindi Shire Council meeting in Yea tonight (Wed.) will be a brief one.

Most of the Shire’s business is now held in behind-closed-doors meetings called ‘Assemblies of Councillors’.

In the past month three such meetings, none open to the public, have been held.

Discussions have been held on matters including: ■ Mobile library ■ Confilct of Interest policy review ■ Rates and Charges abandone ■ Community Grants - June round ■ Marysville Tourism and Arts Centre ■ Draft Council Plan and Budget ■ Planning application - Marysville ■ Tender - Sealed road maintenance truck

Talks in secret ■ Discussions for the awarding of a contract for ‘Training Services Panel’ are listed to be discussed at the Council meeting tonight in Yea - in a section closed to the public.

Below budget ■ Murrindindi Shire Council’s expected revenue from supplementary valuations is expected to be $74,848 below budget.

A sum of $79,921 revenue is expected.

Another item of revenue, interest on investment income, will exceed the shortfall.

Closed meeting ■ Whittlesea Council’s July 18 meeting was adjourned to last night (Tues., July 25) to discuss the operation of Animal Pound Services RSPCA; and cost of redundancy payments That part of the meeting considering confidential items was not be open to members of the public.

1911 flashback: mail arrives in Kinglake

From Our Files - 30 Years Ago Tuesday, July 28, 1987

Apex pair honour ■ Gary Pollard and Neville Walker became Senior Active Members of the Apex Club of Yea’s changeover dinner at the Molesworth Hotel.

Willy Borzatti was installed as President of the club at its 23rd annual handover.

‘Penalty in lives’ ■ “We should not have to pay the large penalty in human lives,” said Cr Ian Macintyre, when Yea Council discussed the condition of the Melba Hwy. Cr Macintyre was commenting on the number of road accidents on the Melba Hwy and the Yea-Whittlesea Rd.

Dog control ■ Yea lady Joan Byrne put forward the question of dog control, towards the end of the Council candidates’ meeting. She had been bitten by a dog. If the present Yea ranger was unable to patrol and control dogs in the township, could alternative facilities be provided?

Flag for scouts ■ Our 1987 issue had a 25-year flashback of Yea man Ian Scott presenting a flag to the 1st Yea Cubs Pack when in 1962 he moved up to Scouts with Glen Elliott, Peter Dean, John Storey and Ross Tonkin.

“I am very happy to present to the 1st Yea Cub Pack, this flag in memoryo f my grandfather, the late Major Purcell, who had the honour to serve under the late Lord Baden Powell, the founder of the Scouting Movement.”

Yea Hospital ■ Lorne Collins, of Range Rd, Yea, asked one of two Kinglake councillors how he would improve the Yea Hospital situation.

Ray Hutichinson said Yea said Yea had to be prepared to sit on the door-step of the Health Minister.

A lobby group needed to be formed so that Yea’s views could be represented to the Government and also to the Opposition, he said.

Ian does Yea proud ■ Ian Docking, 33, formerly of Yea, but now of Barooga, became silver medallist at the World Championships for Marathon Canoeing held in Ireland.

He competed in the pairs event with partner Roger Fenwick. The Australian pairs came second to Denmark, and were successful in beating West Germany to the line over the 42km course.

14 behinds, 14 more ■ From 38 scoring shots at Ardmona, Yea football seniors scored 10.28, half the behinds coming before the first goal - and that was a penalty kick taken after a breach downfield.

Cellar door, cafe plan for Mountain ■ Plans for a spirits cellar door and cafe/restaurant at O’Gradys Rd, Kinglake Central, are due to go before Murrindindi Shire Council’s meeting to be held at Yea tonight (Wed.).

C.R. Daniels has made application for a permit for manudacturing of alcoholic spirits at an existin shed.

Officers are recommending to Councillors that they issue the permit, allowing for the premises to be open 12 Noon-7pm, seven days a week, with four special events each year.

Suggested conditions include a limit of 20 people at any one time, that the premises be kept neat and tody, and that the amenity of the locality not be adversely affected.

Officers suggest that there be a requirement fora septic tank permit, an existing wastewater system be decommissioned, and that suitable car parking signs be erected.

Council received three objections including concerns about traffic dangers, alcohol-affected rivers, disruption to local residents, worries about heavy traffic from delivery trucks, potential fire riks, and insufficient detail in the appliaction.

Ms Daniels said the nearly Wombelano Falls attracted 20,000 visitors a year on unsealed roads. She se said the distillery is to be built in line with safety guidelines.

■ Plans are underway for works at St Mary’s Catholic Primary School,Alexandra.

“Our building application which was sent to our Melbourne Catholic Education Office has been moved on to the detailed planning stage,” Principal Adrian Cheer told parents last week.

“In the next month our architects, Detail 9, will draw up plans and estimates for the project brief. We are seeking to address travel areas within the main building of the school, restructure administration and visitor access and improve work areas for staff.

“These plans are provided to the Archdiocese Authority and hopefully we will receive approval in Term 4 of this year. All things going well we could see works taking place early 2018.

“I thank the School Advisory Board and Fr Longinus for supporting this aspect of our School Development Plan,” Mr Cheer said.

Rugged week for netballers ■ It was a tumultuous week with the Yarra Valley Mountain District Football Netball League, with Seville and Yea trying to sort through Seville's request to drop their A side to B, and their B side to C, with five rounds to go of the season.

The conclusion was Seville only fielding a Bside and forfeiting the other game altogether late Friday afternoon.

The game commenced with Seville taking the first centre pass but only havingsix players on the court.

Yea were strong defensively from the start, turning the ball over and scoring from it.

As is often the case having the extra player was more of a hindrance than a help for Yea. It was mid way through the quarter before Seville's seventh player arrived but the game was already a one sided affair. 21 to 5, Yea's favour at the break.

The second quarter was more of the same in defence with Rachel Normington and Lauren Cronk putting intense pressure on every ball coming into the goal third and not giving any easy goals.

Kate Elliot and Regina Bell did a clean swap out of WA and into GA and vice versa and the goals kept dropping.

Seville became more physical which is quintessential Seville however it caused Kate to have to leave the court for injury.

This brought on C-Grader Molly Jarvie into GA and she hit the court running, dropping goals from long range, working in unison with Amanda Akers and not even flinching at the GD's physicality.

The result at the end of the quarter saw Yea scoring another 21 and Seville only able to get an extra five on the board.

The third quarter saw Ruby O'Dwyer the second C-grader take the court into C and Cindy Newcomen able to have a rest after dominating the mid court for the first two quarters.

Ruby slotted into the flow of the game instantly and plucked four clean intercepts in this quarter and three in the next.

Chelsea Helder continued to keep the WA quiet and unable to feed to the goalers who were struggling to get clear of our defenders and were only able to score three for the quarter.

The last quarter saw Seville have its best result for the day scoring 7. Cindy Newcomen retook the court into WA allowing Regina Bell to finish her day early.

Cindy, Ruby and Chelsea all worked together to control the mid court. Seville changed their WA into GK of which Amanda Akers took advantage and became the dominant goaler for the quarter and scoring 11.

Yea 72 defeated Seville 20.

Local History

Strath Creek State School: 125 years on ■ 2017 marks the 125th anniversary of the opening of Strath Creek State School.

Noreen Foster published A Century of Education at Strath Creek, 25 years ago, in 1992.

She wrote: “From the time it was first suggested to the Education Board of Advice in Broadford in June, 1878, that a petition had been presented for a new school to be established in the district, considerable discussion took place as to the siting of the school, whether it be two part time school in two different locations, or a full-time school at one location.

“In June 1878 a petition was presented to the Board ‘praying that a new school be established about one mile south of the Kerrisdale Home Station ... suggest reservation from sale or selection part of Allotment 54A ... a considerable number of selectors have taken up in the neighnourhood and unless a site is reserved it will be have to be purchased.”

“Mr S. Lade, who had selected land at Strath Creek in 1879 that he had a family of nine children, seven under school age and was anxious that a school be located within a suitable distance from his selection.

“It took the concerted effort of the Mitchell, Yorston, Sheppard and Pattison families with a majority of children eligible to attend school to have it finally built in 1881.

“The site chosen was 5A, Parish of Kerrisdale on Yorston’s Lane, part of the present property Summerlea).

Mrs Foster wrote: “The Board of Advice also noted to the department that land had been set aside on un-alienated land south of Allotment 98 (opposite S. Lade’s selection) in Falls Rd but owing to the rugged nature of the country, if a school was built there, it would be inaccessible.

“At the time Mr Lade also suggested Allotment 94 (later to become the site of the township) as a possible site.

“The Education Department felt that as Allotment 94, was only 2½miles from Allotment 54A, a distance far less than the practice in country schools, it should not be considered.

“As well as the petition, many letters were sent to the Education Department in 1879, requesting the establishment of a school.

“Families in the area within a twomile radius had 36 children of school age ‘some of them have been living here over 12 months and is forgetting what they have learnt through the want of a school’ (according to a letter from Richard Mitchell to the Department in 1879).

Mrs Foster recalled that: “Mr Glover, squatter of Kerrisdale Station, also entered the debate saying where the school should go (the proposed site was part of his squatting run) even though he didn’t have any school aged children.

“It was felt by selector John Yorston ‘that his motive is a selfish one and he is trying to injure the selectors by keeping the school from them’.

“The Education Department finally decided to establish a full time school on Allotment 54A and leave in abeyance the question of providing school accommodation for Strath Creek.

“Application was made to the Lands Department for a suitable site of five acres, but the land in quest-

“The consent of the pastoral tenant had to be obtained. Mr Glover and Associates Pastoral tenants refused but the site was eventually gazetted on October 3, 1879.

“In 1880 a portable classroom with quarters was authorised but, with wrangling about sites locally especially after arriving in Broadford, it was sent elsewhere.

“Vocal antagonism between Mr Lade and others in the Strath Creek area who had 14 children able to attend school, and parents living near the gazetted site had 40 children able to attend, as to the final siting of the school was the problem.

“Finally in June 1880 the Board of Advice Broadford recommended the erection of a school in the southeast corner of McLelland’s fortified block (5A).

“The Education Department sent a memo to Mr Lade informing him that the department siting of the school had been guided solely by the desire to fix a site that would secure the largest attendance.

“It regretted that owing to his comparative isolation from the other families, no better provision for his family could be made.

“In the same year King Parrot Creek School (on the triangle roaqd) was closed and children could attend proposed Kerrisdale school.

“Portable classroom with quarters was finally despatched in February 1881. The school was to be known as 2405 Kerrisdale. Head teacher was to pay £4 per year for residence.

“Mr Josephn Evcans was the contractor to erect the school.

Costs Building ................. £116.16.0 Desks, etc .................. £4.17.6 Paint white lead ......... £2.14.4 Carriage ..................... £23.0.0 Contract price including extras

Stones or bricks for chimney foundations made into a solid bed for iron chimney. Solder for eaves and gutter, glue for furniture. Paint - outside woodwork 3 coats eaves, gutters, down pipes, 2 coats doors, windows, 1 coat inside and out. Tank set up. Closets put together.”

Mrs Foster said: “Everything to put the building together was included. All timbers, windows, iron rails, screws coat hooks, putty, tap washers, coal tar, came in bundles and boxes, precut with instructions for assembly and position.

“Included was two 400 gallon wrought iron ships tanks complete with overflows; 2 iron chimneys; 2 cast iron hearths, backs and gratings; 14 foot ladder; 2 out offices in parts.

Furniture: 2 7’6” desks and seats 2 6’ desks and seats 2 6’ forms “The school was certified satisfactorily completed by travelling inspector of School Buildings, F. Findlay on May 12, 1881.

“Arguments about and around the school continued. W. Richards had erected a post and two rail 3 wire fence in front of the school in 1881 and had been grazing his cattle on the school land since then.

“He complained to Mr Lade that his children’s pony was wandering on his land while the children were at school.

“Suddenly in 1887 when applying for his land lease, he tried to pressure the Department into fencing the other two sides of the school block to save him from the expense of fencing.

Local History ● From Page 17 “As it was part of his licence agreement, he felt the previous fencing he had done warranted the Department doing the rest.

“The Department agreed to pay half costs and the residents had to pay the rest - a novel way to get your selection fenced.

“A concert was held in the Temperance Hall to raise funds to pay for the fence. 70-80 people attended.

Miss Lade sand The Skipper And His Boy and We’d Better Bide A Wee with much sweetness and feeling.

“Others to perform were Misses Craig, Fothergill, Holliday and McConchie, and Mr F. Lade. Dancing started at 11pm until the ‘wee small hours’,” Ms Forster quoted a local newspaper to say.

“During 1888 Mr Cockrem who had been part-timing between King Parrot Creek and Doogalook Schools, was appointed to Kerrisdale school to part-time with King Parrot Creek.

“He requested to teach thre edays at Kerrisdale and two at King Parrot Creek. There were 25 children attending Kerrisdale, with nine above third class, and 15 at King Paroot Creek with two above third class.

“The Department was not desirous of change. He also felt the Kerrisdale school should be painted as it hadn’t been since it had been erected seven years previously granted.

“As the school population altered, moves began to have the school resited. In July 1890 the Department decided to work 2405 Kerrisdale and the new school at Strath Creek temporary unclassified school (No 3044) on the half time system.

“The number of children attending Kerrisdale school in June 1890 was 18. Diptheria had been prevalent in the district and parents were not keen to send their children to school, one family of five school age children, whose house was infected, hadn’t attended for three months.

“The Broadford Courier reported on April 25, 1891, that ‘Since the opening of the public school unclassified as Strath Creek, the children have shown a marked improvement in most branches of learning.

“A report of the State School Inspector visiting the unclassified school at Strath Creek in August 1891 shows that it was as the parents expected.

“The all round improvement was phenomenal, the percentage was raised to 83 per cent for children in the senior division. A well deserved compliment was passed to teacher Mr Wilson.’

“It was reported in the Broadford Courier, Friday, January 15, 1892, that ‘Strath Creek School was closed at the commencement of mid summer holidays. Mr Wilson transferred and the children were to be transported at parents’ expense five miles to Kerrisdale school.

“Although Strath is comparatively a new one and unclassified, Kerrisdale is government and long established. Strath Creek parents are said to be determined not to send their children away and thus the matter stand.’

“Mr M. Fitzgerald helped draw up a petition and it was sent to the authorities.”

Mrs Foster’s A Century of Education at Strath Creek continued: “Mr Fitzgerald, W. Forbes, S. Lade and others were displeased that school No 3044 (temporary school) was closed and that there was an average attendance of 11 children. It was too far for the children to walk to Kerrisdale, and requesting the

■ Strath Creek has a rich heritage, painstakingly recorded by Noreen Foster, a former teacher at Strath Creek State School.

Noreen published Whispers In The Valley, an 89-page local history, in 1985.

This well-researched publication looks back on the area, dating back to 1838.

The history studies aspects including squatters, selectors, farms and families, farming, mining, education, roads and bridges, the township, organisations and events, and sport.

Noreen Foster also wrote the publication, A Century of Education at Strath Creek.

The Local Paper has quoted extensively from Noreen Foster’s work for this special feature. We gratefully acknowledge her valuable research.

3 size 3; 2 size 2; and 3 size 1. Problems continued with white ants, finally after the school council reported in 1927 that the walls shook when the wind blew the Department took some significant action.

“A department memo showed that repairs would cost £230, they recommended that a new building would cost about £480. P. Forbes was the contractor who built the new school for a cost of £492/8/7.

“The new building was first occupied by H.T. James Ellis and students on Monday, November 26, 1928.

“Tenders for the old building were called for. Steve Baker’s tender of £7/10 was the only one and was accepted. He removed the building and lean-to store room ny March 1929 to a stire on Falls Rd. “The new school building was 20’ x 20’ and although bigger in size still had its problems. With 29 children attending it became stuffy on hot days.

“The shire supported the parents committees application in 1934 for more ventilation but the department felt that ‘as the building was of standard construction throughout the state being 1 3’ x 8’ window and door on the west side and 3 windows 8’ x 3’ with fixed middle sashes and lower sash opening inwards on the east, and ventilation had never been complained of, there was no justification for any action’.

“The school committee erected a new shelter pavilion in 1940. D.I. Prictor noted that termites had attacked the bicycle shed in 1949.

“D.I. Watson lent his support for the building of a teachers residence in the school grounds in 1952.

“He felt there was enough room and the present enrolment of 24 would likely be maintained.

“The Department recommended that as it was not an urgent case and not included in the 1949 survey for those schools requiring residences therefore consideration be deferred.

“White ants have continued to be a problem, severe damage was repaired in 1977-78,” Mrs Foster wrote. “The last structural changes made to the school building were made in 1978 when finally after numerous representations aqbout pupil numbers in the available space were made.

“The east wall was moved outwards, an extra 9 feet was added to the building. White ant infestation was treated yet again.”

What The Papers Say Hospital expands

■ Mansfield District Hospital is about to expand its range of primary health services with the introduction of a service to address the issue of ice and other drug use in Mansfield, as well as a suicide prevention service.

The ice and other drugs project builds upon the recommendations from a community forum held in Mansfield in July 2014 that was attended by more than 200 people.

At that forum respected public health expert Professor David Penington heard of the prevalence of drug use in Mansfield.

- Mansfield Courier

Gorge Park plan

■ A long-term plan to turn part of Plenty Gorge Park into a mass heritage site is on the cards following the successful old Bridge Inn Hotel excavation.

Archaeologists have wrapped up the month-long Mernda digs, which uncovered many unexpected secrets of the gold-rush era hotel.

- Whittlesea Leader

Buses below par

■ The lack of footpath links and poor bus frequency may be contributing to Yarra Ranges residents not making the most of existing bus services.

These factors, along with the need for improved bus services linking the shire’s urban areas with the Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges townships, have been earmarked as crucial for the municipality to thrive socially and economically.

Yarra Ranges Council and the Eastern Transport Coalition are pushing for better public transport services, and with Victorian State Elections 18 months away, Cr Jim Child told the Mail it’s time for residents to think about what public transport services they need.

- Mountain Views Mail

Court battle looms

■ The dispute between Violet Town farmer Kevin Sloan and the Strathbogie Shire Council over the clearing of native vegetation along his property boundary looks destined to end up in court.

Kevin Sloan was told the Shire of Strathbogie would be pursuing legal action against him for the removal of trees, which he argues he had permission to remove, given their proximity to his boundary fence line.

Mr Sloan told The Weekly Times he was “advised by a council officer seven years ago” that he could clear vegetation within this four-metre rule when rebuilding his boundary fences, which border some six kilometres of road reserve vegetation along the DookieViolet Town Rd. - Euroa Gazette

Bumbling bandit

■ A bumbling bandit has been brought down by a blackberry bush in a foolish attempt to evade police.

The 24-year-old man was taking a nap in an allegedly stolen car at a Caltex Service Station about 3.30am. Police were called and knocked on his window to wake him up.

In an Austin Powers style escape attempt, the half-asleep man continually reversed and rammed into the parked police car and accelerated into bollards.

He then fled the scene but Police found his car shortly after in a ditch after colliding with wire barriers. About 40 minutes later the dog squad found the man, tangled up in a blackberry bush over a creek.

- Lilydale Leader

Push for cull

■ Wonga Park residents are paying professional hunters to shoot kangaroos and deer as hundreds descend from Mt Lofty, causing problems on roads and destroying crops and vegetation.

The situation has got so bad that landowners are calling on the State Government to cull the animals. There have been reports of a Reserve Rd vineyard being damaged.

From Our 1917 Files

Unlawful flags ■ A war precautions regulation issued last Thursday makes it unlawful for any person, without the permission of the Minister for the Navy, to hoist or conspicuously display the white or blue ensign, whether with or without any distinguishing mark, or any flag which may resemble these ensigns.

Yea entertainment ■ Notwithstanding the inclement weather, there was, taking all things into consideration, an excellent attendance at the entertainment given by the Yea Amateur Dramatic Society in the Shire hall on Friday evening last, in aid.of the organ fund of the Molesworth Church of England. During the floods in the latter part of last year the organ in the Molesworth church was completely ruined, and at the request of the church committee the Yea Amateur Dramatic Society kindly agreed to give an entertainment in order to augment the fund that had been started for the purpose of purchasing another organ.

More light ■ Sir,-I think it is high time our Rip Van Winkle, Cr O'Callaghan, woke up and produced that famous elactric light scheme he promised some two years ago. The miserable apology we have at present for lighting the town raises a laugh from all visitors, and the disgust and annoyance of the ratepayers, especially as on some of the darkest nights; of late, a number of the lamps have not been lighted at all. It was mainly through Cr O'Callaghan's objections that the very excellent scheme proposed by Major Purcell was thrown out, and we poor dupes who accepted Cr O'Callaghan's promises of a better scheme have been relegated to the darkness and shadow of death ever since.

- More Light and Less Talk

Yea pine trees ■ Sir,-The residents are thoroughly justified in opposing any movement to interfere with the street plantations. The trees are a reasonable distance away from the buildings, therefore I'm justified in saying that they cause no one any discomfort or annoyance.

The proposal of Cr Coonan that particulars be sought as to what the trees would be worth as timber is not worth considering, for what are a few pounds to a municipality! The average farmer pays very little attention to the beautiful in farm life, hence he places very little value on the beauty spots of the district in which he lives.

A friend of mine told me a few years ago that he asked Professor McAlpine (the Victorian Government pathologist) his opinion regarding a proposal to thin out a somewhat similar plantation in a certain municipality, and he strongly advised my friend to strenuously oppose the removal of a single tree.

Trusting that public opinion is strong enough to restrain some councillors from getting to work with the axe in Yea, and that we will hear no more about the pine trees causing trouble.

- Resident

Rabbit drive ■ A meeting will be held at the Seymour Gun Club's grounds on Saturday afternoon next for the purpose of arranging for a rabbit drive in aid of one of our Patriotic funds.

These outings have been held with good results in our neighbouring towns, and besides aiding a deserving cause, should prove an excellent day's amusement for those who wish to take part. A good attendance is therefore ex pected.

Steel’s Creek ■ The Yarra Glen Agricultural and Horticultural Society held their Pruning Competition on Saturday afternoon in in Mr Partinton's orchard at the Pinnacles, which lies between Steel's Creek and Dixon's Creek and there was a very close contest.

Local History

Murder at the Mountain Rush ■ The Argus newspaper, 155 years ago (May 30, 1862), reported on the inquest on a body discovered at the Mountain Rush, as the Kinglake district was then known: On Tuesday the district coroner held an inquest on the body of Edmund Cuckson, at Eltham, when the following evidence was taken :John Haynes, a miner at Smith's Gully, Caledonian Diggings, had known deceased for seven or eight years.

On Saturday morning last, the 24th last, started at about ten o'clock with a pack-horse from Smith's Gully to go to the Mountain Rush.

When about seven miles from Smith's Gully, near an old hut, witness's mare shied, and witness then saw the body of a man lying a little off the road, about ten or twelve yards from the old hut, close to a waterhole.

Did not go up nearer to the body than ten yards. Could see the face of the man, but did not identify the deceased at the time.

Was satisfied that the man was dead, as there were flies about the face, and because of the whiteness of the face. Did not touch the body at all. Then went to catch the mare.

Caught her, and went on the journey. Met Mr Albert Nash about a mile further on, with Mr Herman Steinman, Mr Passarius, and another person, all walking.

Asked them whether they had seen any one. They said they had met two persons, with swags, on the Mountain Rush, near Mr. Hirt's store.

Told them there was a body lying on the road by the hill. They then went on in the direction of the body, and witness continued on to the Mountain Rush.

The day before witness saw the body of the deceased, witness had left the Mountain Rush about 4 pm.

Went on horseback from the Mountain Rush to Smith's Gully, and reached his own place about seven o'clock.

The old hut near which the body was found was about three miles from the first creek of the Mountain Rush, and about seven miles from witness's hut.

Saw only one person on the journey home; that was a man sitting on a swag close to the hut where the body was afterwards found.

The man had made a sort of miami, and was boiling his billy at a fire he had made.

On coming up to him, he said "Good evening mate," and witness answered "Good evening." The man then asked whether that was the road to the diggings, pointing to the road witness had come.

He also asked whether it was a main cart track for Whittlesea. Told him it was not, but that there was a road from Second Creek to Whittlesea.

He then asked how far some village was off the Whittlesea-road.

Witness told him he had heard of the place.

Then, pointing to the track witness was following the man asked «where that led to? After being told, he said, " You are going there tonight, then ?"

Answered yes; and that witness went up every day with stores. The man said he had come through Queenstown, and was too late to make the Mountain Rush that night.

● A £100 reward was offered in the Victoria Government Gazette. June 1862.

While talking, witness got off his with the man, and did not take any found was situated between the horse and took a sack from behind particular notice of how he was Queenstown and Smith's Gully the saddle to throw across his knees, dressed. roads, and very near where they met.

Excitement at the Caledonia Diggings ■ The Kilmore Free Press spoke of the Caledonia Diggings, in its issue of May 29, 1883: “Many years ago the old Mountain rush, or Caledonia diggings, ceated some excitement, and some rich alluvial gold was there obtained.

“After a spurt the district, including what is now known as Queenstown, Panton Hill, &c., almost became deserted, although there were many who clung to the place, thoroughly believing in its highly auriferous nature.

“This belief we feel convinced, from recent development, has beenfully justified. Several quartz claims have been tried from time to time, occasionally with success, but generally with indifferent results, mainly because no proper system of mining ,seems to have been pursued.

“The prospecting on Reedy Creek up to a very recent date we looked upon as nothing better than rooting, but the old Caledonia diggings seems to have been scratchel over more lightly, a depth of one hundred feet being rarely attained whilst a depth of about fifty feet is the rule.

“The greatest novice in quartz mining knows that mere shallow scratching is no test of quartz veins, indeed in many cases lodes which are very poor on the surface beeome rich at a depth of a couple of hundred feet. Where such rich alluvial deposits were obtained in the district named it is but reasonable to expect that gold-bearing reefs exist; indeed the country for miles, from Kangaroo ground to Kinglake has on the face of it all the indications of being auriferous.

“We had a run through the district named a few days ago, and, whilst many places give tokens of decay noticeable on most deserted diggings there are yet to be seen many cleanly homesteads with their compact front gardens, affording strong evidence of their owners intention to remain in the locality and look forward to better times.

“At Kinglake what appears an excellent reef has been struck. It is on the selected land of Mr McMahon, with whom the new party called the Band of Hope Company has mads favorable terms. The reef is an outcrop on the surface, averages a foot in thickness to the depth tested already-about 410 feet-and is literally studded with gold.”

Did not seo the deceased on the Mountain Rush on Friday last.

Charles Jesse, senior constable, stationed at Queenstown, heard of the body being found very late, on Saturday night. Early the next day procecded to the spot. Found deceased lying on his back, with one arm stretched out, and the right arm thrown above tho head.

The clothes were gathered up towards his arm-pits, and the tail of the coat was under his head, as though he had been dragged by the heels.

The shirt and undershirt were saturated with blood, partially washed out, apparently by the rain, Perceived a small hole in the neck of deceased, apparently a bullet wound. There were slight grazes of the skin on the back.

Found a hole through the waistcoat and Crimean shirt, corresponding with the opening; in the neck of deceased..

There was no mark o£ powdersingeing round, the opening through the shirts.

Found three penny-pieces and the pencil and knife (produced) near the body, and between it and the fire found the pipe and pencil (produced).

Near the body found the portion of The Weekly Argus (produced), dated l6th May, 1862, with a piece torn out of the corner. It is stained with red marks, Albert Nash, a miner living on the Caledonia Diggings, corroborated Haynes's testimony as to meeting on the Saturday.

Witness went on and found the body, with blood on the neck near the wound. Recognised deceased, but neither of the party touched the clothes, but left everything as it was.

Noticed that the body had been dragged about eight or ten yards from off the track.

Saw a pool of blood where witness supposed deceased fell, and near the blood found the pocket-book (produced).

Went to Queenstown Police-station and gave information. Did not meet any person on the way to Queenstown.

Mr. P. T. W. Ford, surgeon, described the appearance of the body and the nature of the injury. The cause of death was a gun-shot wound, lacerating the subclavian artery and the lungs, finally injuring the spinal cord. The deceased could not have inflicted the wound himself.

Mr. Charles Hirt, storekeeper on the Mountain Rush, knew deceased, and last saw him alive at about four o'clock on Friday afternoon, the 23rd inst.

He came on horseback to witness's store, spoke for a minute or two without alighting, and then went round the corner in the direction of Queenstown, saying he was going home.

Witness asked him which track he was going by, and he said by the old hut, Did not recollect seeing any stranger on horseback that day on the diggings. Deceased was quite sober.

He had a whip, and a poncho was rolled up in front of his saddle.

The jury returned the following verdict: "That on the 24th May, 1862, on the Mountain Rush-road, Evelyn, Edmund Cuckson was found dead, having; died from internal injuries received from a leaden bullet," and the jury find " a verdict of wilful murder against some person or persons unknown."

Deception probe

■ Whittlesea Crime Investigation Unit detectives are appealing for public assistance to help solve a string of deceptions.

Police believe a drivers licence and passport were stolen sometime in November 2016.

The stolen documents were then used to open post office boxes and mobile phone accounts in the Thomastown area.

On at least seven occasions the offenders have bought goods at online auction and trading sites and had them delivered to the post office boxes after producing forged documents to indicate that payment had been made to the seller.

Investigators have released images of two people they believe may be able to assist with their investigation.

RESERVES

Seville 10.13 (73) defeated Yea 6.3 (39) Yea's finals hopes will likely depend on other team's results following a 34-point loss to fellow top five aspirant Seville.

The Blues were one game ahead of the Tigers heading into the contest and may have just locked themselves into the finals race with their most recent victory.

With the senior side ravaged by injury, Yea didn't have their best 21 in but did benefit from some senior players, such as Lachie Kelly, Tom Butterworth and Dean Clue, playing in the first half.

The Tigers took the chocolates in the first quarter to lead by two points before the hosts slotted four second-term majors to take a 10point buffer into the half time break.

The advantage was stretched beyond five goals in the third quarter and despite the Tigers booting two majors to one in the final term, it was too little, too late.

Trav Hearn was lively up forward, Sof Vlamis was a welcome return in the midfield and Darcy Pell proved a strong target in attack and through the middle of the ground.

Yea will be desperate to knock off ThorntonEildon this Saturday.

No best and goals available.

The Tigers lifted in the second with Firmin, the Harry brothers,Wischer and Beattie along with a host of others showing the way.

Good work upfield allowed E. Aldous,Turvey and Charles to goal and the Tigers take the lead at half-time.Yea 5.4 (34) to Seymour 4.3 (27).

The third quarter saw Yea begin to play some lazy footy, leaving the hard work to too few ,preferring to stand back and wait for the easy ball.

Beattie, Firmin and Gilbee continued their good form,Wilsmore and Aldous kept the Tigers in the game with a goal each,at ¾ time: Yea 7.4 (48) to Seymour8.5 (53).

The last quarter was a real battle for both sides with both backlines on top .The Tigers could only manage two behinds,with Seymour adding one goal two.

so much this quarter in the mid court area. Tigers defence stayed strong right till the end of the quarter which gave them a one-goal lead. 21 - 20 Hannah B got Yea’s first goal. Caitlyn got a great intercept from her player which resulted in a goal for the Tigers. Jordan and Hannah’s confidence lifted this quarter which gave us some much needed goals to get us a head slightly. Our defenders, Teagan and Ebony worked hard all game and rebounded well to our advantage.

Great game girls. 30-26 Royal Mail Award : Hannah Broderick - Michelle Dolman

return to Rebel Park and host Thornton-Eildon for two games of football and three games of netball.

The morning was frosty and foggy with sunshine a welcome sight during the day. A good crowd enjoyed the football as well as everyone excited to have the first match day experience on the new courts.

RESERVES The Reserves, after making five changes, took on an undermanned Thornton-Eildon side in the early game and after keeping the visitors scoreless for the first half finished with a 94point win to help consolidate their position in the final five.

Alex had many winners all over the ground as Ben Podger-Carroll led the midfield and picked up kicks at will, regulars David Bourke and Ryan Carter also had plenty of the Sherrin at the stoppages whilst up forward Scott Isaacs kicked six goals and missed a few.

Kyall Norris in his first game for some years remembered where the goals are whilst in defence Corey Jack just keeps reading the play as well as ever.

Justin Leary, also making a return, found the going tough but improved as the game progressed whilst youngsters Brayden Burchall and William Ellis showed plenty of promise in the game, Alexandra 15.16 (106) to Thornton 2.0 (12), and a special mention to Rosco Purvis Coltrane for his efforts.

Awards: Caltex $25 fuel card - Max Church, Alex Sportspower $20 award - William Ellis, Hoova's @ Mt.Pleasant $20 meal - Daniel Roper, Corner Hotel $20 meal - Andrew Wood, Corner Hotel 5 pots - Corey Jack.

SENIORS The Seniors, including Nathan Dundas, Zach Heaslip, Brent McDonald, Tom Rouget and Matthew Steiner to replace Jacob Brereton, Jack Elkington, Jack Goonan, Luke Heard and Conor Heaslip, won the toss and elected to kick to the town end favored by the cool breeze.

Thornton-Eildon was first to go forward but the Alex defence was able to send the ball back where Nick Waugh, settling into his new team well, was able to intercept a wayward kick and kick his first goal for the Rebels.

Thornton-Eildon assisted by 50-metre penalties kicked their first goal at the hill end.

Brayden Norris marked strongly but missed his first attempt and an Alex defender misjudged the flight of the ball to enable Thornton-Eildon to take the lead.

Alex missed opportunities before Zach Heaslip intercepted a kick in and goaled. After another goal to the visitors, Alex was messy with their use of the ball seemed to get on top and be more direct enabling Heaslip again and Brayden Norris to goal and give Alex a 16-point lead at the first change.

Thornton-Eildon went forward first in the second quarter but Alex sent the ball out of defence via Scott Heveren to Norris for his second goal.

A free and a penalty allowed Heaslip who was playing well, another goal. Jake Steyger and Matt Steiner combined to supply Norris for his third goal. Thornton-Eildon again goaled as they took the game up to the more favoured team who were making some poor decisions with the ball.

Ben Cooper, in fine form, marked strongly and kicked accurately before Thornton-Eildon took advantage of a drop in intensity and kicked successive goals as Alex was lacklustre before Norris went into defence then returned forward and snapped Alexandra's tenth goal just before the siren giving Alex a 20-point lead at the main break.

Given some words of advice from coach Sam in the rooms during the break, Alex came out and set the standard with a goal to Norris very early in the third quarter.

Alex kicked the ball long and direct from defence and Steiner marked and goaled to stretch the lead. After a Thornton-Eildon goal Scott

Hill found Cooper to replenish the leading margin as Alex was now well on top as Chris Mullins goaled from a free and Heaslip having a good game found Hill for his first goal.

Thornton-Eildon kept committing and was rewarded with a goal but Alex always was able to replay as this time Steiner in the pocket unselfishly passed to Norris for his seventh goal and a 38-point lead at the last change.

The visitors kept trying and kicked the first goal of the last quarter as the ball rolled through untouched.

Heveren dashed from defence and Steyger found Norris but he was well off line on this occasion.

Alex continued to give away 50-metre penalties before Michael Coombs who got better as the game progressed, passed to Steiner for a goal.

Four well directed kicks around the Caravan Park side finished with Nathan Dundas for a goal, Matt Steiner relishing his return after a facial injury kicked a third goal as the game petered out well into the last quarter.

Steyger marked and goaled between two Thornton-Eildon goals to give Alex a comfortable if not pretty win 20.10 (130) to 13.9 (87).

Brayden Norris with seven goals finished well whilst brother Ryley in his best game for the season kept running and providing options all game, Nick Waugh and Zach Heaslip (3 goals) were in and under getting the ball moving and brothers Daniel and Tom Rouget who celebrated their first senior game together, both showed they are players of the Club's future.

■ After spending the week licking their wounds our Tigers turned up ready taking on the Lions at Seymour.

Dominik Ciantar refused to let the ball past the middle of the ground try as the Lions might.

Kicking straight we jumped out with a threegoal lead at quarter time.

Our forward press continued with Luke Kelderman working the midfield then Sam Gregory snuck a sneaky goal bringing us in at halftime: 6.6.41 to no score.

The brave Lions dug in through the third and managed to pinch one back but the day belonged to Ryan Ockwell who turned it on with his ruck work around the ground all day giving us first touch making us too good on the day.
