Young and not-so-young: Anzac Day marchers walk up Main St, Mornington, on Thursday heading for Memorial Park in Barkly St where they joined almost 2000 people for one of the biggest 25 April turnouts in the town’s history. More Anzac Day photos by Yanni on Pages 8 and 9.
Anzac legend grows as citizens mark 98 years since Gallipoli By Mike Hast THE Anzac Day service in Mornington on Thursday was attended by one of the biggest crowds ever to commemorate the event that defined a young nation – the battle of Gallipoli in 1915 and the Anzac legend that grew from the blood-soaked beaches and hills of the Turkish peninsula. The event was blessed with fine weather as almost 2000 people packed into the southern section of the town’s Memorial Park to pay tribute to the
veterans of the Great War, the 60,000 Australians who perished and the generations of servicemen and women who also went to wars around the globe. Senior Sergeant Ron Barbary of Mornington police said crowds were bigger every year and Main St was lined with people as marchers went to Memorial Park. “It just seems to strike a real chord with the people of Mornington�, he said. Master of ceremonies Col Fisher told the crowd that 2013 was a significant

The ranks of those who served in the Second World War, Korea and Vietnam may be thinning but a large turnout of young people acknowledged the Anzac tradition and the ideals for which they fought. A catafalque party of three men and one woman from HMAS Cerberus taking their places at the four corners of the main cenotaph signalled the start of formalities, which included a short sermon by Rev Paul Chalson of Mt Martha Uniting Church and singing of the hymn O God Our Help in Ages Past,
led by Samantha Hafey-Bagg of Rosebud Secondary College, who also later led singing of God Save the Queen and the National Anthem. Commander Wes Heron gave the address and said Anzac Day marked not only the commemoration of the landing at Gallipoli but also all other wars in which Australians fought as well as peace-keeping operations. “Today we celebrate their courage, endurance and resourcefulness, and honour their sacrifices,� he said.

‘Heritage’ houses avoid listing HOUSES have avoided inclusion on Mornington Peninsula Shire’s heritage protection list because of mixed messages been given to their owners by council and previous owners. Simon Lloyd, the shire’s strategic planner – heritage and urban design, said the latest heritage assessment “has placed the owners of these three properties in an especially difficult position due to the timing and circumstances in which they purchased properties subject to the review�. He said the previous owners would have been notified about the review and the current owners had asked at the council offices “and been advised there were no heritage issues attaching to the property�. Mr Lloyd said producing the review for consideration by councillors had been hit by delays and he was recommending they allow for the removal from the list of the three properties. He said consultants had been hired in 2010 to conduct the review, which covered Mornington, Mt Eliza, Mornington and Mt Martha. A draft review was given to council in June 2012 and exhibited for public comment but the amended list has yet to be finalised. Mr Lloyd said the three properties had changed hands during the review process and the buyers had not been told about it by the vendors. “Their first knowledge that a heritage overlay may be applied to their property was when they received a
mailout in mid-2012,� Mr Lloyd said. “They oppose an overlay because they had purchased the property with the intention of removing the existing house and constructing a new one; they had taken reasonable steps to check with council that they could do so and they had incurred costs on the assumption that their development would be allowed.� Although the three property owners made confidential submissions, their addresses were listed on the council agenda as 4 Alfred St, 86 Barkly St and 7 Bath St, Mornington. “To varying degrees the submissions also raise other arguments against a heritage listing. These arguments include that the house has been altered, that its condition is poor, or that it cannot be reasonably adapted to accommodate the functions/layout desired by the new owners,� Mr Lloyd said. While the houses were “historically significant� there were three other similar properties already covered by the heritage overlay and another four intact enough to be included.
Back to Balcombe THE role of the old Balcombe army barracks in Mt Martha will be celebrated next weekend with the unveiling of a commemorative sign at 2pm on Saturday at Balcombe Grammar and a march and service on Sunday at 9am at Memorial Park, Barkly St, Mornington. Details: 0418 728 181.
Time to walk: Dog owners took their pets to last year’s Walk for Western Port on Hastings foreshore.
Paws on walk for dolphins THE Dolphin Research Institute’s annual fundraising Walk for Western Port starts at 10am on Sunday. “We expect many hundreds to take part and for many it will be their first exposure to the wonders of mangroves, mud and seagrass,� the institute’s executive director Jeff Weir said. He said there were two walks “an easy two- or four-kilometre stroll around Hastings Park or a more
adventurous seven-kilometre walk from Jacks Beach in Bittern through Warringine Park on the boardwalk�. The walk from Jacks Beach starts at 10am while the shorter foreshore walk begins at 11am. Dogs can go on the Hastings foreshore but are not allowed in Warringine Park. Rangers from the park will accompany and talk with walkers
while the dolphin institute will run environmental education programs for families after lunch. All walkers will finish at Hastings for presentations of prizes, raffles and a sausage sizzle. The $5-a-person entry goes to the Hastings-based institute’s marine education and research programs. Register at www.dolphinresearch.org. au or call 1300 130 949.

ALP ‘local’ for federal poll By Keith Platt JOSHUA Sinclair will be the Labor Party’s candidate for Flinders at the 14 September federal election. The 21-year-old of Somerville will be contesting the seat held since 2001 by the Opposition’s environment spokesman Greg Hunt. Mr Hunt, 48, holds the seat for the Liberal Party with a 9.1 per cent majority, making the it “very tough to get into”, according to Mr Sinclair. Having said that, he is undeterred by the task, quoting the finer margin by which another Liberal, Bruce Billson, holds the neighbouring seat of Dunkley. “Labor didn’t do a lot of activity down south in the Flinders electorate before the last election,” Mr Sinclair said. “But I live in Somerville and know what residents in the electorate worry about.” He sees Flinders as “a pretty conservative seat”. He said Labor had “done more for the environment than any political party in history” and was looking forward to “testing my ideas on Greg Hunt at some stage”. Mr Sinclair attended the Peninsula School in Mt Eliza for primary and secondary schooling and freely admits that his ideas on politics, social justice and the environment differed “with those of most of my classmates, although that’s not necessarily a private or public school thing”. Mr Hunt was also a student at Peninsula. Last year Mr Sinclair was a candidate in the Watson Ward elections for
Poll ready: Labor’s candidate for Flinders Joshua Sinclair says he knows what voters want.
Mornington Peninsula Shire, losing to the now mayor, Cr Lynne Bowden. “The result was 43 per cent to her 57 per cent [of votes], but it was good experience for me,” Mr Sinclair said. He joined the Labor Party in 2010, works part-time in a restaurant and one day at week in the office of the Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus, the federal MP for Isaacs, which covers the southeastern suburbs.
He is nearing completion of a Bachelor of Arts degree at Monash University and aims for a Masters of Laws. He is reluctant to speculate too much about the future. “Three years ago I would never have imagined I’d be running for federal parliament. When I applied to work at Mr Dreyfus’s office he wasn’t Attorney-General, and now look what’s happened.”

Ambulances waiting longer: Opposition By Mike Hast AMBULANCES were forced to wait outside Victorian hospitals for up to twice as long in the last six months of 2012 than in 2009-10, says the Opposition. Labor’s Parliamentary Secretary for Health Wade Noonan said documents released by Ambulance Victoria to the Opposition under freedom of information showed ambulances were forced to wait outside hospitals, known as ramping, “longer than ever before”. The average number of hours each month ambulances waited at Frankston Hospital was 709 under the Brumby Labor government and 1323 under the current government. The figure for Rosebud Hospital was 75 under Labor and 102 under the Coalition government. “Ambulances are increasingly being used as pop-up emergency departments because hospitals are struggling to cope with the state government’s $616 million health cuts,” Mr Noonan said. “Instead of being able to transfer patients into the care of hospitals, ambulances are stuck outside because emergency departments are unable to cope.” He said this was preventing patients from receiving proper care. “It is also tying up ambulances, which could be needed in another emergency.” The blowout in ramping times was “because of a lack of beds and resources in the state’s hospitals”. The delay was “a window into just how gridlocked our hospitals have become under the government”. “Health Minister David Davis is responsible for the crippling lack of investment in our health system, which is having a clear effect on ambulances and the service they provide.”
He said the figures confirmed “what doctors, nurses and paramedics have been saying for a long time – our health system has never been as bad as it is currently under the government”. Victorian treasurer Michael O’Brien reportedly said the government was putting $151 million into recruiting 310 more paramedics and 30 ambulances. The appointment of a new board to help Ambulance Victoria would help improve performance. “We acknowledge there are more pressures on our ambulance service and that’s why we’re putting more money into it,” he said. Ambulance Victoria general manager Tony Walker reportedly said longer ambulance response times were due to increased demand in the community. He said the population was ageing and some people in the community were less resilient. People were calling ambulances for any emergency and using them as a “safety net”, he said. There had been a seven per cent growth in demand in the past year, putting the service under significant pressure.

By David Harrison MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire ratepayers will get a shock when they open their rates notices in a few months – the bottom-line figure could be well up on what they paid last year. But not all of the rise will be revenue for the shire. From 1 July councils will begin collecting the Fire Services Levy for the state government – a charge previously included in home insurance policies. On top of this, rates will rise to cover the effect on council revenue of the federal carbon tax. The Municipal Association of Victoria has calculated the fire levy could add 19 per cent to rates bills. It estimates the carbon price will add a further 1.5 per cent, although the figure will vary from council to council – from 0.7 per cent to more than 3 per cent, the MAV says, depending on factors such as carbon emissions from landfills. “If all carbon price-related cost increases are collected through rates, it could lead to a rise [of] $22 a year or 42 cents a week,” the MAV estimates. The transfer of the fire levy to rates creates greater equity. It means all homes will be insured against fire in the same way that road accident medical costs are paid for by the compulsory third-party insurance premium included in vehicle registration. The fire levy could push rates up 19 per cent, the MAV has calculated. But the change has a positive side. Because home insurance will no longer be optional, the cost could drop quite dramatically for some policy-holders as the cost of insurance is shared across the state. The Fire Services Property Levy Act 2012 comes into effect on 1 July. It sets a fixed fee of $100 for residential properties and $200 for
all other property types. The charge is indexed, meaning it will almost certainly rise each year. In addition, government-set variable charges will apply, based on how properties are defined under the Act. Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors are currently working on the 2013-14 budget. The average shire rate, which rose by just over 4 per cent in 2012-13, will probably rise to between 8 and 11 per cent. Councillors voted for a smaller than usual rise last time because 2012 was an election year. A rates catch-up this year will be crucial. In layman’s terms the shire could be described as “broke” – a description it will vigorously deny – with debt at nearly $50 million and rising and more borrowings slated for the next two years. Councillors recently instructed staff to cut the debt to $20 million by 2017. This will involve considerable pain. In broad terms it means finding savings of more than $7 million annually for four consecutive years. To achieve this, more revenue must be found or deep cuts made to council services and new spending curtailed or abandoned for the moment. This will almost certainly include a further delay to the proposed Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre in Rosebud and economies in areas such as maintenance and shire services. Councils get funds from three sources: Rates and charges ($119.8 million in the current year for the shire), including fines imposed for parking and other infringements. Sale of assets. State and federal grants. With the exception of last year, rates and charges have risen sharply for the past decade or so. But each year the shire fudges the size of the rise by announcing the low “rate” as a tribute to its financial management skills, omitting to include the “charges” – a not very subtle pea-and-thimble trick.
Yet documents such as the shire’s monthly report abandon the stratagem: the phrase “rates and charges” is used (see page 164 of the March report, available on the shire website). Mornington Peninsula Residents and Ratepayers Association calculates that rates and charges have rocketed 128 per cent since 2000-01 – a period that coincides almost exactly with the tenure of shire chief executive Michael Kennedy. The trajectory of shire debt has been as steep as the Swiss Alps, apart from the period 2007-11, when debt fell slightly. Of the charges or flat fees that the shire imposes, the municipal charge is the most inequitable. It is anticipated to rise at least another $10 this year, to $170. Some councils, aware of the unfair burden flat charges place on their poorest citizens, keep their municipal charge low, in some cases less than $20. Neighbouring City of Casey did not impose any charge in the current financial year. For ratepayers who do not or cannot afford to insure their properties, the new $100 fire levy, plus its unknown (at this stage) variable component is effectively a new state tax, small comfort for some who will now be covered. To illustrate the effect of flat taxes, it was calculated that in this financial year they represented just 0.36 per cent of the shire’s top rates bill of $41,771. For the lowest-rated property, flat charges represented 61.9 per cent of the $242 bill. These are figures and philosophies for councillors to consider as they wrestle with the 201314 budget, balancing the take from sliding-scale rates against revenue from flat-rate charges. Equity – now there’s a word to terrify the shire’s hardline Thatcherites and give comfort to the poor.

Stroke victims are getting physical
Getting physical: Barbara Cox, left, with class leader Margie Hutchings at the David Collings Leisure Centre in Mornington.
MANY of the more than 1000 Australians who have a stroke each week are left with the need for long periods of rehabilitation. A group exercise program run by Peninsula Health with gymnasiums is helping stroke survivors improve their physical health and confidence after rehabilitation. The stroke circuit training program is seen as a “next step” option after stroke rehabilitation for men and women of any age. Participants are treated individually and exercise at their own pace. The program, accredited by Fitness Australia, is held at gyms in Frankston, Hastings, Somerville, Mornington and Rosebud. “Stroke Circuit Training helps stroke survivors get their lives back on track,” Peninsula Health’s director of chronic disease and aged services, Iain Edwards, said. “It is designed to improve muscle strength, fitness, walking, balance and independence. For most people, however, it’s much more than exercise and many enjoy the opportunity to socialise after their workout.” Will Hilleard has been with the stroke circuit training group at Monash University’s Frankston gym for five months. Since having a stroke 18 months ago while on an interstate holiday, the 87-year-old Frankston resident has
been working to regain strength and movement in his right hand side. “The care I received at Peninsula Health’s Golf Links Rd rehabilitation centre was wonderful and now the stroke circuit training program keeps me to be active and independent,” Mr Hilleard said. “There’s a real sense of camaraderie because you’re with people who have similar problems. “It’s been a long journey but I’m proud to say that I’ve progressed from wheelchair to walker to walking stick – and now I’m walking independently. “There’s been a huge improvement in my ability to carry out my daily activities and I’m back to gardening and helping with the housework. Most of all, I really enjoy the sense of purpose it gives me to come to the gym twice a week and the fact that I’m doing something positive for myself.” Fitness services officer Trent Crockett works with stroke circuit training program at the Monash gym. “It can be very frustrating for stroke survivors when they first start using the equipment and some may have difficulty remembering the exercises”, he says. “But even after the first session they walk out feeling a lot better about themselves. “We tailor the program individually for each participant and work on the areas that need improvement. For
most, it’s about getting their muscle strength back, improving their mobility and balance, and rebuilding their confidence – all those everyday things most of us take for granted.” Barbara Cox, of Moorooduc, has been attending the stroke circuit training program at the David Collings Leisure Centre, Mornington, for more than a year. “I started slowly at first,” Barbara said, “but have made steady progress since then. I am more mobile than before and my walking has definitely improved,” she said. “The circuit training gives me the incentive to keep it up at home; and every day my husband Ian and I go for a walk. We even have a treadmill at home to use when the weather keeps us indoors.” Ms Cox’s advice to other stroke survivors is to “do anything you can to improve your mobility. It’s important to keep both your body and mind active”. Margie Hutchings, who works with the Mornington group, said participants “start to bloom” once they were familiar with the equipment. “Their mobility improves, they regain confidence and their daily activities become more manageable.” For details about Peninsula Health’s stroke circuit training program 1300 665 781.

Thousands turn out for Anzac Day Continued from Page 1
Commander Heron – who hails from Frankston South and lives in Mornington with his family after a 26-year career in the Royal Australian Navy including serving on submarines – said 3000 defence force personnel were currently serving overseas. He paid tribute to the 39 men who had been killed in Afghanistan and those who had been wounded. He said it was the 40th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, which lasted from 1962 to 1973, “the longest campaign in Australian military history”. Commander Heron acknowledged the personnel who served in Vietnam including Australian nurses. He paid tribute to indigenous Australians who were among the original Anzacs at Gallipoli. “All our personnel at Gallipoli were
volunteers, who showed reckless valour, initiative, self-sacrifice, endurance and drive,” he said. “We were the youngest force at Gallipoli and we took the most casualties.” Australia lost 7600 and New Zealand 2500 lives, and 19,000 Australians and 5000 New Zealanders were wounded. “Fewer than 100 Australians were taken prisoner,” he said. Commander Heron told the story of Australian submarine AE2, which ran the gauntlet of Turkish gunboats, mines and heavy shore guns through the narrow straits of the Dardanelles between the Mediterranean Sea and the Sea of Marmara. AE2’s action had buoyed the Anzacs when news of her successful mission reached the men at Gallipoli. The spirit of the Anzacs lived on in Australia and had most recently been
shown during floods and bushfires when people assisted strangers, and communities came together to rebuild. Commander Heron ended his address with the words of Mustafa Kemal, who commanded a Turkish infantry division at Gallipoli and went on to become founder of the Republic of Turkey, its first president and was named Atatürk (Father of the Turks): “Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives ... you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours... You the mothers who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears. Your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have

become our sons as well.” The poem In Flanders Fields was read by two students of Padua College and the names of men from the district who died in the two world wars and in Vietnam were read by two students of Toorak College. Two Peninsula School students recited part of the A B “Banjo” Paterson poem We’re All Australians Now, first published as an open letter to the troops at the Dardanelles in 1915. Wreaths were laid at the base of the cenotaph by Kate Billson, wife of federal MP Bruce Billson, who had attended the dawn service, Mornington MP David Morris, Cr Bev Colomb and Michael Kennedy of Mornington Peninsula Shire, various veterans’ groups, service organisations, clubs, schools and citizens. Mornington Fire Brigade members
laid a wreath for the 22 brigade members who went to war and the quarter who did not return. Jack Green, 96, received loud acclaim after reciting from memory “Anzac Day Thoughts” by Patience Strong. Col Fisher thanked Mornington Youth and Citizens Band, Mornington Secondary College Police Drum Corps (which included students of Mt Eliza Secondary College), Victoria Police, St John Ambulance, Peninsula School cadets, Scouts and Guides, and students from area secondary colleges and primary schools. In other towns across the peninsula, thousands more attended services to honour those who have served in conflicts in the 20th and 21 centuries. Lest we forget. Pictures: Yanni

RSL prepares for Gallipoli 100th MORNINGTON RSL sub-branch is putting in place an ambitious plan to mark the 100th anniversary of Gallipoli in 2015. Col Fisher of the RSL told the big crowd at the Anzac Day ceremony that the last tree in the new avenue of honour had been planted in Memorial Park on Barkly St late last year and the sub-branch had started raising money to build a rotunda and install interpretative signs. The park’s First World War memorial would be refurbished for the centenary. Mr Fisher said the avenue of honour replaced the one planted in 1917 and 1918 along Main St, which stretched from what is now the Bays Hospital to the Nepean Highway. The trees and a rotunda had been removed about 40 years ago when Main St was widened, he said. The RSL had been lobbying for years for an avenue of honour but “we couldn’t find a road that was suitable” and Memorial Park had been selected last year. There was a tree for every soldier who went to war from the district’s four main towns – Mornington, Mt Eliza, Mt Martha and Moorooduc. Mr Fisher said the rotunda would be built alongside the avenue of honour and would be a multi-purpose building. The cost of the building and signs would be “tens of thousands of dollars”. No federal government funds were available for such a building so the RSL would rely on public and corporate donations. Mike Hast

MP urges universities to merge at the point University not establishing what he described as “a great research facility on a boutique scale”. In June 2010 Mr Hunt told federal parliament the state had “pocketed” $7 million allocated to Melbourne University. He was also critical of the state’s plans for a hotel at Point Nepean and “commercial exploitation”. The latest master plan sets aside land for various types of accommodation as well as a university or TAFE campus. “The plan explicitly refers to environmental and outdoor education and research as one of the three core uses,” Mr Hunt said. “I have long stated that the establishment of an environmental educational facility such as a National Centre for Coasts and Climate should be at the centre of any refurbishment of the historic buildings of the quarantine station. “In that context I have made clear representations on behalf of the community to the Victorian government
FLINDERS MP Greg Hunt hopes Melbourne and Monash universities can establish a “joint educational facility” at Point Nepean. “My overwhelming preference is for environmental education to be at the centre of any use for the quarantine station and I will work to that end,” Mr Hunt said. His comments follow this month’s release of a master plan for the development of Point Nepean National Park and, in particular, the use of buildings and land in the 17-hectare quarantine station precinct. Mr Hunt has previously backed the Launceston-based Australian Maritime College opening a campus at Point Nepean and a “National Centre for Coasts and Climate” run by Melbourne University. Financial problems saw the AMC eventually back away from its plans while Mr Hunt blamed the then Labor state government for Melbourne
and am pleased those comments have been taken on board and reflected in the new master plan. “I also encourage education institutions to take up this significant opportunity to become a part of the historic quarantine station as a unique site for a marine and environmental research centre. I will be doing all I can to make that a reality.” When contacted by The News, Mr
Hunt replied that he was “delighted” that buildings at Point Nepean were ready for use. “The Coalition previously provided Melbourne University with funding for 110 student places, which could underpin a coastal and environmental centre,” he said. “I have had ongoing discussions with both Melbourne and Monash universities about the possibility of a
joint educational facility at Point Nepean and remain hopeful that we can achieve this. “I will continue to work with both institutions and the Victorian government on a future plan for Point Nepean.” The master plan agrees that Point Nepean is “well placed” for education programs. Keith Platt
Shire website looks to the future but not past By Mike Hast MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire has a new website with many bells and whistles but one glaring omission – no archive of council decisions or monthly reports prior to 2010. Audio files of council meetings also have not yet been included. The council agreed to record meetings in March last year. Council watchers have complained about the omission, saying it means they cannot look up council meeting
minutes to chart the progression of long-running issues such as important planning decisions. The website went live earlier this month and contains new features such as the peninsula’s weather for the day, forecasts for the week ahead and a “what’s near me” search function that uses Google maps to show services in or near the shire’s 42 towns. The shire’s communications manager Todd Trimble said the website development team was “looking into”
the council minutes archive function and discussing “how far back we go”. Options included making minutes and reports available as compressed files to save space, he said. “We can’t guarantee the archive will go back 15 years but it will go back several years.” A temporary system enables people to apply on line for the minutes of a particular meeting but the catch is that users need to know which minutes to request.
The previous website allowed key words searches although this could yield many documents and users had to diligently read them to find what they were looking for. Mr Trimble said the new website was “more interactive, and has more memory and data capacity”. “It’s a complex website and we’re fixing a few bugs.” He said because the peninsula was a tourism destination, many people from outside the area accessed the website especially during the holiday season.

He said audio files would go up in the next two weeks. It was planned to add “how-to” videos such as how to lodge a planning permit. The home page contains links to main sections such as our shire, building and planning, environment and waste, what’s on, services, and leisure and tourism. The website was created by Seamless CMS, which Mr Trimble said had built sites for more than half Victoria’s municipalities.

OUR ANZACS Mr McWhinney wins the battle for better hearing IT is more than 65 years since the guns of World War Two fell silent. But for many Australian veterans, the noises of war are still taking their toll in the form of hearing loss. This Anzac Day, Australian Hearing is raising awareness of the problem of hearing loss among veterans. One such veteran is Rosebud’s Norm McWhinney, who is well aware of the noise problems associated with warfare after serving between 1944 and 1946. “I was first accepted into air crew training when I was 18 and was sent to Bradfield Park in Sydney for a three-month course,” he said. “Part of the training included rifle shooting in a galvanised shed. Because I’m left handed I was put on the end of the line, next to the wall. By the end of the rifle training, my ears were ringing. “I visited the doctor, who told me I had done permanent damage and because of this I was unable to continue in the air crew.” Instead, Mr McWhinney was deployed to the ground crew. After a five-month training course he was stationed briefly at Darwin before moving to Alice Springs to work as an air radio operator. “While I had a hearing loss, I was still able to perform my job.” On returning from war service, he went on to study applied chemistry and industrial management. He worked as a chemist, production manager in a pharmaceutical company and a consultant.

Mornington News 30 April 2013
Over the years, however, Mr McWhinney’s hearing loss gradually worsened, eventually leading him to his local Australian Hearing centre for help. As a client of Australian Hearing in Rosebud, Mr McWhinney now hears with the assistance of hearing aids, an FM system and a wireless headset to watch the TV. “I find the TV headset particularly useful. Before I would have to watch TV with subtitles but now I can get the whole experience,” he said. As a keen golfer, Mr McWhinney also finds that his hearing aids help him out on the course. “I play golf regularly, that’s my main hobby. I wear my hearing aids on the course and I can hear conversations when playing.” He is also appreciative of the continued support he has received over the years. “I’ve received a lot of help from Australian Hearing and have been with them since 1997. They’ve always done the best they can for me.” Nici Glyde, Manager at Australian Hearing, said the organisation was first established in 1947 to help those returning from battle. “War veterans are likely to suffer from hearing problems due to hearing damage from noise exposure during their war service,” Ms Glyde said. “The ability to hear enables our veterans to appreciate special occasions like Anzac Day and hear the recognition and respect they de-

serve. It also allows our veterans to share their stories with each other, their families and friends.” “If you think you have a problem it is important to seek help. Most pensioners and veterans are also eligible for free and subsidised hearing
services.” If you are concerned about your hearing, a hearing check is the first step to take. It’s an easy way to find out more about your hearing and what can be done to help. Australian Hearing Rosebud
(Shop 8/Rosebud Central Shopping Centre, Wannaeue Place) and Frankston (Ground Floor, Landmark Centre, 454 Nepean Highway) are offering free hearing checks for veterans and pensioners. To make an appointment, call 131 797.

Awaiting new foal: Jeremy Marriott at his Pearcedale property with one of his polocrosse horses.
Cloning first for crosse breed By Keith Platt THE interest of the equine world is zeroing in on a small landholding in Pearcedale. But it is not the polocrosse horses in Jeremy and Peta Marriott’s fenced paddocks that are attracting all the attention. The centre of focus is East Lynne Plucker, a 21-year-old, 15.2-hands high grey gelding living out his autumn years on a farm at Geraldton in Western Australia. The Mariotts and other members of the family are the central members of a syndicate formed to create a clone of the horse affectionately known as Plukka. If successful, a stallion with an exact replica of his DNA will be born in August 2014. It will be an Australian first and a birth that could lead to clones of other champion horses. Plukka is a star when it comes to polocrosse and is unknowingly participating in the cloning program that could see his genetic double fathering future champions. Plukka cannot breed as such but the latest scientific techniques make it possible for his unique genetic code to live on. Unable to collect his sperm, the cloning program will see cells extracted from Plukka then used to culture stem cells injected into DNA-less eggshells. The offspring will be grown from a chip off its old man’s block.
The eggs will be returned to the mare from where they were collected to grow and the resulting foal born in the normal way. The mare, a surrogate mother, will have no genetic link to her foal. The foal will be a stallion, just the same as Plukka. But from then on the destinies of the two horses will be vastly different. The stallion will not be gelded and his sperm will be collected to father any number of other Plukka-like horses for polocrosse. “Polocrosse horses are basically Australian stock horses,” Mr Marriott says. “The cloning we are doing will be the first in Australia of any type of horse.” The interest in Plukka comes from his success as a polocrosse player, which has been recognised internationally. He has been ridden in seven national titles, a record, and “is arguably the best polocrosse horse ever produced”, Mr Marriott says. Mr Marriott’s family in WA bred Plukka, whose bloodlines go back a stud run by Australia’s highest rated polo player, Sinclair Hill, in the Hunter Valley, New South Wales. While the biopsy which supplied the cells for Plukka’s clone was done in WA, the preparation of the egg and its implanting in a mare will take place in Geelong. Up to 15 mares will be implanted
Champion: The grey gelding East Lynne Plucker, left, shows the style that led to him being chosen for the first Australian attempt at cloning a horse.
with eggs, with just one being allowed to foal. The progress of the embryos will be closely monitored, with all but the healthiest one terminated in vitro. Experts from the United States are overseeing the medical procedures, which involve “sucking out” any DNA from the mares’ eggs before they are filled with stem cells cultured from a slice of flesh taken from Plukka’s neck. “We don’t have sperm but we effectively have conception,” Mr Marriott says. “The patented part is how the eggs are kick-started into growing an embryo without sperm.” Eggs implanted with cells contain-
ing Plukka’s DNA have been frozen, waiting for spring when they will be implanted into the chosen mares. “We have a conglomerate of experts out from the US, geneticists, and vets from the US and Australia,” Mr Marriott says. “There’s a lot of interest from the polo fraternity in securing Plukka’s bloodline.” Mr Marriott puts the cost of the cloning program at $250,000-$500,000 and says that making more than one Plukka clone would devalue the service fees expected from his offspring. Genetic material taken from Plukka is also being kept as insurance in case the cloning fails.
While there is a worldwide ban on cloning racehorses, the same does not apply to show jumpers, polo or rodeo horses. “There are almost 2500 cloned horses worldwide, from just one in 2003,” Mr Marriott says. “Typically, the physical attributes of a cloned horse are the same but the markings can be different because they are the result of pressure within the womb and are nothing to do with DNA.” Mt Martha-based equine vet John Bowers said using eggs produced by a particular mare avoided there being an antigenic reaction. “Her antibodies won’t attack the eggs because they came from her in the first place,” Mr Bowers said. “The DNA is taken out of her eggs leaving just an eggshell. Cloning will keep the characteristics of the original horse, including its sex. “The foal will be genetically identical but not an identical animal. “ Although Plukka is acclaimed within polocrosse circles and Mr Marriott is a member of the Moorooduc club, the two have never played a game together. “I’ve never sat on him, although everyone else in the family has,” he says. “It would be a no win situation. If we didn’t excel it would have been because of me and, if we did do well, it would have been because of Plucker.” Mornington News 30 April 2013

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Somerville struck by cyclonic winds, potato digging is in full swing Compiled by Matt Vowell From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 3 May 1913. SOMERVILLE was visited by a cyclonic disturbance on Sunday last, Mr W. Firth having the roof blown off a shed and Mr Joe Unthank losing his fowlhouse. The roof of Mr Firth’s shed, which was of a substantial nature, was carried two or three hundred yards, while Mr Unthank’s fowlhouse was blown to pieces, and pieces of 2x3 timber were blown hundreds of yards. Trees in the track of the storm were uprooted in all directions, and the roar of the wind could be heard a considerable distance. *** THE secretary of the Frankston Football Club acknowledges with thanks the following donations :-Messrs H. Masterton and G. W. Booth £l 1s each, K. D. McKenzie £1, R. Walker 5s. *** THE many friends of the Rev Father O’Hagan will be pleased to learn that he is at present enjoying to the full the one month’s holiday granted him in Sydney. *** MR Jack Murphy, the popular secretary of the Mornington Football Club, left for Sydney on Monday last, for one month’s holiday. Mr G. T. Jenkins will act as secretary to the club until the return of Mr Murphy. *** MR P. O’Grady, who was recently transferred to Frankston to replace Guard Bourne, was entertained by his Seymour friends last week. A convivial time was spent, and during the evening Mr O’Grady was presented with a beautiful gold watch and gold
sovereign case, and Mrs O’Grady was the recipient of a handsome silver cake basket. *** DURING the past fortnight Mr J. B. Jolly, of Frankston, has resold from his last purchase of building allotments, which he a few weeks ago purchased from the local land and estate agents, Messrs Brody and Mason, to well known country traders, all of whom propose building on their respective blocks and using same as summer residences. *** WE have been asked to announce that the Frankston band will again appear in public in Frankston this (Saturday) evening. The band, under the tuition of Mr Hammond, have made rapid progress with their music, thus enabling them to play some splendid selections to-night. *** WE have been asked to announce that through an error the first of the St. Paul’s winter socials at Frankston was announced for a wrong date. It has been fixed for Thursday of next week (8th inst.) The charge for admission will be 1s. The social will begin at 8.15 p.m. Refreshments will be provided. A short dance will follow. *** A MOST enjoyable time was spent at the smoke night had in connection with the Mornington Football Club on Friday night last in the Mechanics’ Institute. Mr G. T. Jenkins (vice-president) and about 50 members were also present. The evening’s programme consisted in playing cards, draughts, parlor games, etc. During the evening the trophies for last season were presented by Mr Jenkins to the winners
amidst great enthusiasm. Mr Jackson’s trophy valued £1 is for the best all round player was awarded to Mr G. Wilson. Major Campbell’s (gold medal) for best improved player was won by Mr S. Garlick, and Mr Kreyts trophy (gold medal) for second best improved player was awarded to Mr W. Sanderson. The musical programme contributed to by Messrs Edwards, F. Harrap, J. Garlick and others was highly appreciated, and the ample supply of refreshments was all that could be desired. *** SOME of the cadets stationed at the military camp here have gained, amongst other experiences, some idea of what it feels like being under fire. Although in this instance the missiles were only saltpetre, still the sting was there, and it is doubtful if a sumptuous feast of apples was worth the exprience. In future the military arrangements should be such that orchardists in proximity to this camp should have some protection. As it is they have to stand an invasion and have their fruit commandeered. As fruit is so cheap, perhaps the ration list could include an unlimited supply of fruit, and thus give this fresh added worry on the already much worried fruit grower. Although the export fruit arriving at oversea ports has not, so far, realised high prices, still some encouraging results have been obtained. This particularly applies to the fruit packed and despatched by the A.C.E Co, from thier packing shed at Somerville. From returns available their brand of fruit has sold up to 1s 9s per case ahead of ordinary consignments. Evidently this new company has been started on the right lines and
should in the future claim due attention from all fruitgrowers. The anniversary services in connection with the Methodist Church here passed off very successfully. There was a good attendance at the last fortnightly meeting of the local Progress Association, and a good many matters of local importance were discussed and dealt with. It was also arranged to hold working bees to do some necessary clearing on a private road leading to the camp and thus enable the shire council to take it over. *** THE concert held in aid of the Balnarrning tennis club was only fairly attended, which was held on the 18th in the local hall, the same night as the Branch of the A.N.A., was opened at the Naval Base. Mr Phillips, the chief president, and Mr Crossbie, one of the Board of Directors, came from town to perform the opening ceremony. Mr Vincent was appointed President, and Mr Crossbie secretary, and about 40 became members. The night passed off very pleasantly with songs and recitations until about twelve o’clock. *** POTATO digging is in full swing in this disrict, five and six tons per acre being the general crop. They are a splendid sample, and are bringing very good prices in Melbourne – as high as £7 5s per ton. There is a big demamd for potato land in this district at present. The market gardeners at Cheltenham are prepared to buy all seed grown in this district, as they say it is a great change out of this chocolate soil. *** AS arranged, the Land Board sat in the council chamber on Tuesday last, to take evidence for and against
the proposed tip at the water reserve known as Black’s Camp. Mr Brenuan, of the Land Department, was chairman. Crs Cole, Murray and Griffeth gave evidence for the selected site and Mrs Gommsen, Messrs H Gommsen, D Puckle, Geo Gomm, Roper and T Thornell spoke against the idea. Most of the residents objected on the ground of the pollution of their water holes and consequent infection of cows and stock, with liklihood of disease germs being spread through the township. The evidence has to be printed and forwarded to the Minister of Lands. Mr Duncan presented a petition against the proposed site as a tip, signed by 36 residents, most of whom as he stated would be affected directly in their water supply. *** MR John Kelleher, formerly of Sealake, has been appointed rabbit inspector for this district, and is now at Mornington. The district under his supervision extends from between Aspendale, and Mordialloc to Point Nepean and includes the Shires of Mornington, Frankston and Hastings, Flinders and Kangerong, and part of Dandenong. Mr Kelleher is a firm believer that the digging out of burrows is the surest way to exterminate rabbits. For poisoning, there is nothing so good, in his opinion, as apples and strychnine or carrots and strychnine, the rabbit being given at least three unpoisoned feeds. During his stay here, Mr Kelleher will be only too pleased to give any information regarding rabbit destruction. *** MRS Riley, our post mitress. is leaving this district, and Mr M Hurley is taking her place.

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT
The last of the lickspittle generation By Stuart McCullough WE were celebrating the birthday of my niece. Matilda was turning seven and the family had gathered at the farm to mark the occasion. Given that this was likely to be the last of the nice weather, we decided to eat outdoors. Under the sailcloth near the barbecue were a number of tables loaded with all manner of food. But just as we prepared to swarm around lunch, a large number of European wasps got in first. Within seconds, they were everywhere. I blame social media. I assume that the insects had heard about Matilda’s birthday through facebook and decided to turn up en masse and uninvited. However, we take a strict approach to gatecrashers and my father immediately sprang into action. Rather than retreat, he decided to wage war against the interlopers, dispatching one of grandkids to go and fetch the Glad Wrap. But while covering the food in plastic prevented direct access, it did little to deter the wasps who continued to gather in ever-larger numbers, presumably with a view of using a battering ram to get through the cling wrap veneer. But my father refused to concede defeat. In this world, there are two types of families. There are those for whom the fly swat is their weapon of choice, to send various creepy crawlies from this world into the next. These people may well be Amish and avoid buttons. We, however, are people of science and use fly spray. Clutching twin cans of Mortein like a gunfighter, our father began spraying the wasps without
mercy. Given that they were in the midst of trying to break through the protective layer of Glad Wrap, this meant unleashing a torrent of insecticide on the various serving dishes containing lunch. Although the sun was shining, as it so often does in Tyabb, the wind was blowing also and a steady stream of spray soon began to make my brothers and sisters feel a little unsteady. It was, of course, not the first time I’d seen such mayhem. When we were kids, insect spray was practically a condiment, right up there with mayonnaise and mustard. At the slightest rattle of a blowfly, my father would be off to fetch the can. Without exception, the insect would be loitering around the dinner table as that’s where all the interesting stuff
was. Like a sniper, he would stand, can poised, trying to make visual contact. Once he did, my father would issue a general warning to cover our food before letting loose. You could see the particles of spray drifting down through the atmosphere towards your plate and glass. Attempts to cover our food were eventually abandoned as we developed a taste for it. Indeed, I can barely bring myself to eat anything without the tang of chemicals and pine needles I knew and loved as a child. In some respects, the fly spray was the least of our worries. Other family favourites included being invited to eat without a plate. Usually, this was a biscuit or some other snack rather than a full meal. The offer of going sans plate was an attempt at a kind of
laissez faire informality that was ordinarily beyond us as the idea of eating anything without a plate was generally considered a notch below anarchy. But there was always a catch. While we were invited to throw caution to the wind, we could not do the same with our crumbs and were forced to eat standing over the sink. While this severely detracted from the devil may care thrill of going “plateless”, we were too in awe of the occasion to complain. I may whinge about it now, but to this day I find myself compelled to stand, leaning like Pisa, over the sink as I eat a piece of toast. It’s a sad state of affairs. But of all the things that were a feature of our childhood, none has left a more indelible mark than this: the lickspittle grime removal method. It’s

a substantial irony in that the whole point of the lickspittle method was to remove otherwise indelible marks from your face. For those unfamiliar with it, the lickspittle method involved a parent spitting into a handkerchief (or similar), then using the now moistened rag to wipe your face. As an adult and with the benefit of hindsight, this sounds like one of the most disgusting things you could possibly do to another human being, a step short of water boarding but ten times worse than a wet willy. Today’s kids would, no doubt, be slack-jawed in shock at the fact that such things ever occurred. These days, parents are loaded up with all kinds of moistened wipes that have made the art of projecting your saliva into an ancient snot rag largely a thing of the past. But as disgusting as it was, it taught you a lot about life. It also taught you to never trust a handkerchief. As the wasps swarmed around us and Mortein gushed into the atmosphere, I instinctively fell down and began spinning in a circle. As the haze of the spray drifted off into the breeze, I looked up to see all the members of my family gazing down in shock. I had reacted in haste. As I got to my feet, I felt a deep sense of embarrassment. In fact, you might say that there was egg all over my face. As I stood, glowing with shame, my father reached into his pocket, pulled out a handkerchief before quickly spitting in it and saying, “Come here.” www.stuartmccullough.com

Performance THE Sound of Music was the last of the five great romantic musicals with which the partnership of lyricist Oscar Hammerstein II and composer Richard Rodgers put their mark on the musical stage of the 1940s and 1950s. The musical was based on the Trapp Family Singers, an Austrian group that escaped the German invasion. When a stage musical version of the story was proposed, the music was to come from songs the family had actually performed. As the project advanced, Rodgers and Hammerstein became involved and by the time it reached the theatre in 1959 there were none of the pretty harmony pieces of the Trapp Family but a full book of Rodgers and Hammerstein works, songs that would become standard in the English-speaking world. I saw the film version aged 10 at the Cameo Theatre in Belgrave in 1965. The hugely popular musical returns to the Arts Centre’s State Theatre for three performances on Friday 16 and Saturday 17 August at 7.30pm and a matinee on Saturday at 1pm. A celebrity guest yet to be announced will guide the audience through The Sound of Music.

companionship. Tickets 136 100. *** SHOCK Entertainment has released a Blu-ray version of the classic Black Sabbath album Paranoid, first released in 1970. The band’s second album is regarded by many as the finest heavy metal album of all time, which was hugely influential and defined the genre.
The four original members of Black Sabbath: Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward talk about the making of the album and there are interviews with the original engineer as well as demonstrations, archive videos and use of the original multi-track tapes. Bonus features include more than 40 minutes of additional interviews,
archival footage and new demonstrations. Tracks include Paranoid, War Pigs, Hand of Doom, Iron Man, Black Sabbath and N.I.B. Original band members Ozzy Osbourne, bassist Geezer Butler and guitarist Tony Iommi will make a thunderous return to Australia this month in their first Aussie shows since 1974. In June 2012 Black Sabbath memorably headlined the 10th Download Festival at Donington, UK, in front of 100,000. This was followed by a headlining set at Lollapalooza Festival in Chicago. The band is recording its first new studio album in more than 33 years, helmed by seven-time Grammy-winning producer Rick Rubin. The album is due for release later this month. Black Sabbath performs at Rod Laver Arena on 29 April and 1 May. Tickets 132 849. www.shock.com.au www.blacksabbath.com www. livenation.com.au *** RENEE Geyer emerged on the Australian music scene in the 1970s and soon became Australia’s top soul singer with her style encompassing blues and rock. Geyer did her first gig aged 16 in a bar in Bondi and soon joined the blues band Mother Earth. It was her second album It’s a Man’s World in 1974 (a James Brown classic) that gave her a break and was an instant hit. It was produced by Tweed Harris, former keyboard player in The Groove. Geyer’s career has spanned four decades and is still going strong with her 25th album. She was a precocious jazz, blues and soul singer in her late teens; Countdown royalty in her 20s; had a string of pop, soul and reggae hits spanning the 1970s and 1980s; spent years in her LA in the studio with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Sting, Joe Cocker and Chaka Kahn; and enjoyed a 1990s renaissance with Paul Kelly. Geyer is a singer, a songwriter, producer, author and is one of Australia’s
bystander, without wanting to offend, I feel no guilt. As for feeling ashamed, I’m no more ashamed than I am of many government decisions here; the world over. Bad enough the nine “stirring renditions” of our national anthem before every round of AFL football without going into the guilt factor. *** A FINE idea for Teddy Baillieu to apologise for the pain and suffering of mothers and children through the dreadful forced adoption practices during the 1950s to the 1970s involving 250,000 babies but being so recent, so yesterday so to speak, what about now? Are we better thinkers, no stupidity, cruelty and so on? No more “for their own good” or “for the best”? Don’t you believe it. It’s all about human nature and we all know human nature does not change. A forest full of wowsers looking over us, forever. Lucky us. Teddy who? *** DOES age welcome wisdom? No, but it helps to a small degree because you have lots of time to think, and if you’re super thoughtful you will realise the many times you displayed typical unthinking behaviour, thus bringing a form of learning process to the brain, causing more and more significant insights into the deeper realms of common sense, and with it the bonus of voicing your new-found
wisdom on any and everything. Welcome to the Know-all Club where no one listens anyway. The fact is you always had time to think but for some unknown reason it did not occur to you. Such is life, with or without a wife, or husband. *** THROUGHOUT the racing industry we have tipsters advising us on likely winners. What do they do for their money – pick winners? If there’s an enquiry on a jockey or trainer or fixed race, they report the facts as given to them. When do they challenge? Never. Why not? Free lunches, prostitution without sexual activity. Ditto football commentators and their AFL dealings. In with the strength and stay in your box. Halos for Juddy and Damien Oliver. If you really want to know the ins and outs of a duck’s backside, your best bet is to ignore because, as they say in the classics, “It ain’t gonna happen, baby”. Or you can make do by believing the fellow who gets his information from the girlfriend of a mate’s sister’s son. But don’t kid yourself you really know the true story. May they enjoy their lunches; smell the oysters first. Andrew Rule had a modicum of courage by reporting on greyhound race fixing, which we all knew anyway. Rod Nicholson merely reported on the findings of the racing integrity investigation.
Drugs in football; total confusion. Big deal. *** POLITICS is a personal thing. We make our voting decisions based on past performances, politicians’ insight into the future (our future), and our instincts as to truth, depending heavily on what mum and dad told us. But the lead-up to this election is surely dreadful. Promises and muckraking abound. Where’s the inspiration, the ideas, the intellect? Julia is under instructions (from whom?) and Tony has Andrew Robb and Kevin Andrews. We get Punch and Judy. Who won? Who cares? Democracy? What’s that? Power, as always, corrupts, etc. Ask Rupert. *** WE hear you on superannuation, Julia; better than it was after Johnny Howard and Peter Costello made it a slush fund for the rich, but far too late with the fine print and anyway if you’re fair dinkum you would tackle negative gearing, family and discretionary trusts. A “no race” as Tony will ignore it all and safeguard their super. A doublepage spread on Tony and his all-adoring family; ditto on Margaret Thatcher who apparently put the “great” back into Great Britain? Herald Sun heartwarming stuff? *** GREAT-great uncle Thomas Mockett Ellen, former proprietor of the Brit-
By Gary Turner musical treasures and to celebrate her 40th year in the business she has delivered a recording that can only be described as a tour de force. For years fans have asked Geyer to record a big band album. Now comes the long-awaited new studio album Swing. “To all who know me and those who will hear me for first time, you are in for a fabulous surprise with this new album,” she said. “So it seems I’m one of the few women in the world to be recording my own Big Band album.” Swing features tracks like Baby Please Don’t Go, I Got Rhythm, Fly Me to the Moon, Alfie, Comin’ Home Baby (a duet with Paul Kelly), What a Wonderful World, My Funny Valentine, and It’s a Man’s World. The album was produced by Geyer, Paul Williamson and Dave Palmer, and was engineered and mastered by Ross Cockle at Alan Eaton Studio in Melbourne. www.reneegeyer.com.au Top 10 albums 1 Swing – Renee Geyer (Fanfare) 2 Old Sock – Eric Clapton (Universal) 3 Till the North Wind Blows – The Weeping Willows 4 American Soul – Mick Hucknall (Warner) 5 Old Yellow Moon – E Harris and R Crowell (Warner) 6 Classic Soul 2 CD – various (Warner) 7 Living for a Song – Jamey Johnson (Mercury) 8 Precious Memories Vol 11 – Alan Jackson (Sony) 9 Seventh Heaven Club – Mark Seymour (Liberation) 10 Uncaged – Zac Brown Band
A Grain of Salt I HAD a good marriage. Almost everything in our house was in accordance with darling’s taste. Perhaps I should have raised the odd objection? I wonder occasionally, when I see or hear of houses with a male influence, how they manage it or, more importantly, why? Surely if a wife doesn’t like something she will mention it every week, day, hour? In my late wife’s favour she did allow me to display my Certificate of Membership to something on the back wall above the outside toilet attached to the rear of our house, which nobody used other than I. Thanks, treasure. Hey, 45 years on I fished it out and had it framed. I feel better now. (OK, in truth I couldn’t have cared less but it’s a nice feeling to get a word in; albeit to a ghost.) *** IT arrives every Australia Day; the indifference idea, the refusal to acknowledge this nation’s sad beginning, the need to recognise the plight of the Aborigines. Like Afghanistan, Iraq and Vietnam, I had no say in these decisions. I’m sure the British soldiers who landed on these shores all those years ago had no say either, nor the Roman army, Hitler’s soldiers or the Spartans. We bunnies are surely needed but the decisions are theirs. I may well feel sorry for our Aborigines but as an insignificant innocent

Mornington News 30 April 2013
By Cliff Ellen ish Hotel at Baarmutha, expired at his daughter’s residence, the Court House Hotel in Howlong on 24 July 1916. The Ovens and Murray Advertiser (Beechworth) reported he was held in high regard, in spite of his love of alcohol (an Ellen gene?) and occasional bad tempers. Thomas left three sons and five daughters. *** I TAPED the Collingwood v Carlton match won by my boys for viewing that evening if we won. The alternative was four hours of Logies egomaniacal rubbish. Phew. Johnny Farnham number 1? I expected nothing less from Herald Sun readers. Ten years on from the invasion of Iraq and 100,000 civilians have been killed or wounded, however, oil production is at a record high, similar to petrol prices. “Drama is the opposition of two sides that are ‘right’ or else conflict doesn’t amount to anything.” Elia Kazan Hooroo cliffie9@bigpond.com

Doggies down Seagulls, Tigers down Eagles PENINSULA LEAGUE By Toe Punt THE race is on for a top five place in Peninsula League after the round four results highlighted the fact that we have a very even competition. Coming into the season, many assumed a number of things about the upcoming season. 1. Mt Eliza would slide after losing some sensational players. 2. Bonbeach and Edi-Asp would improve considerably given they had maintained and added to their lists. 3. Mornington would be the big mover given the extended talent it was able to add to its list. 4. Seaford would be an exciting but inconsistent side given its youth. 5. Pines would take another step considering its youngsters were another year older and the depth of the list had improved. 6. Frankston YCW would be the yardstick of the competition 7. Karingal’s spirit would continue to drive it to success, despite the fact it was still some key players away from the ultimate success. Well, after four matches in the Peninsula League season, it appears that while some of these assumptions were spot-on, there were others that still had question marks over them. On Saturday, Mt Eliza staged a wonderful last quarter to get the chocolates over Bonbeach to the tune of 18 points. Now, on predictions, this was a turn-up. In a see-sawing battle all afternoon, the Redlegs booted five goals to two in the final term to win
12.11.83 to 9.11.65. Ben Lean and Dave Willett each kicked four goals for the winners while Rohan Heasley continued his dominant start to the season. Karl Lombardozzi has also been a considerable asset to the club since returning and Josh Norman and Rob D’Orazio found the form that saw the Redlegs play in a grand final last season. Despite being at home, the Sharks couldn’t stop the run-on of the Redlegs. Dylan Jones continues to be a standout in the ruck for the red, white and black and Shaun Foster and Mark Tyrell have been in outstanding form. It was the elusiveness of the Redlegs’ small forwards though that hurt the Sharks and it’s something that coach Stevey Capp will need to address in the coming weeks. Mornington continued its outstanding start to the season and maintained its position in second place on the table after a resounding victory over Chelsea. The Seagulls are the only team in the competition not to have won a game in the first four rounds. On Saturday, the Gulls conceded 15 scoring shots in the opening quarter against the breeze at Alexandra Park.However, it was able to hit back against the Doggies in the second quarter and trailed by 27 points at the halfway mark of the match. It was all Mornington in the second half, however, winning 19.22.136 to 10.8.68. Adrian Speedy was clearly the best player on the ground with five goals
playing through the middle and pinch hitting in attack. Speedy’s start to the 2013 season has been as good as anyones in the competition. James Cameron is a very underated player outside of the kennel and once again he was able to destroy the opposition on the scoreboard with four majors. Byron Holt was superb in the ruck for the winners and provided first option to his smaller brigade and Warwick Miller dominated on the wing, as he has done in every match this season. Don’t be surprised to see Miller leading the league medal at the halfway mark before he jumps on a plane and heads overseas. Emilio Bitters has been one of the pick-ups of the season, joining the Doggies from Somerville. His ability to win the hardball and dispose of it neatly under pressure is a highlight of his game. The Gulls had few winners. Ryan Stewart, the skipper, is always going to give you everything he has to help you win a game of footy. Joel Connelly is another who has been in the hoops for a long time and gives his all consistently, while Matty Ponton works tirelessly. Fia Tootoo has been an outstanding recruit and continues to fly the flag for his team. Other than that, there are some other recruits that really need to look within themselves and determine what their worth is to the side. Pines dominated Langwarrin in the second half of its match at Lloyd Park to record a comfortable 17.20.122 to
9.10.64 victory. Scores were locked at quarter time, however, the Pythons booted 14 goals to six after the first change to win comfortably. Dale Tedge was once again on fire for the winners, booting five goals, while Beau Hendry continues to rise in stature. It’s Beau’s consistency that is the difference in his game and he is quickly becoming one of the dominant big men in the competition. Jake Prosser was also up against his old club and despite a limited pre-season, he was able to have a real impact on the game for the Pythons. It was the same old players that did the work for the Kangas – namely Daniel Wehner and Shane Urbans. Dan Riley worked hard across half back, along with Jack O’Shea, however, the Kangas would have been devastated with the result. After a few years of ‘developing’ they should be on par with Pines. However, once again, it was proven that they are a long way off it. In the traditional Frankston RSL clash, Frankston YCW maintained its psycological edge over Karingal, leading all afternoon to win 10.19.79 to 9.9.63. The scoreboard looked a lot worse for the Bulls at the halfway mark, having just one goal at the main break, while the Stonecats had six majors. The Bulls hit back in the third and the margin was just eight points at the final change. With the aid of the breeze in the last, the Stonecats peppered the goals for a return of 2.8, while the Bulls added
two straight. Kyle Hutchison, Brad Ulms with two goals and Tony Lester were the best of the Stonecats, while Kristain Bliesner was outstanding in the ruck for the Bulls, while Sam McGarry (three goals) and Luke Van Raay also provided plenty of drive and some goal scoring options. Inaccurate kicking is bad football. On Saturday at Seaford Reserve, Edithvale-Aspendale had 17 scoring shots in a dominant opening term against Seaford but could only manage a return of 5.12. The Eagles finished the match with 31 scoring shots to Seaford’s 24. The final winning margin was 18 points in favor of the Tigers, 15.9.99 to 8.23.71. It wasn’t only inaccuracy that cost the Eagles, it was Seaford’s defencive pressure after quarter time that stemmed the tide. The reality is that after the first quarter, Seaford outscored the Eagles 12.8 to 3.11. Seaford dominated the match with Tommy Shaw (five goals), Aaron Walton (four goals) and Brayden Irving (four goals) dominating. Sixteen-year-old Rourke Fisher was also outstanding for the winners and Damien Lawrence with two goals was significant in the win. Stevey and Timmy Mannix were at their best for the Eagles and Zac Muschialli worked hard, however, they just didn’t look like kicking enough goals after the first change. The Eagles have been a little disappointing after their first victory over Chelsea.
Blues and Magpies finally on the board, Sharks get a scare NEPEAN LEAGUE By Toe Punt HASTINGS is finally on the scoreboard in Nepean League and has given itself a kick start after dominating Devon Meadows all afternoon to win by 75 points. After a week of team building, which included getting together for the Dawn Service on ANZAC Day, the Blues were able to put the spirit and determination of the ocassion to the test on Saturday and really hammer the opposition. Not only did the Blues win by almost 13 goals, it was the way in which they did it that would have impressed coach Glenn Michie. The Blues restricted the opposition to just four goals. The final score was 17.10.112 to 4.13.37. Luke Hewitt is a very capable player and he contributed four goals. Will Jolley got into the swing of things and hit the scoreboard, Josh Mulheron really dominated in the ruck and worked hard around the ground, Paul Rogasch found some rhythm and Jason Kestle was back to his old self across half back, defending first and then driving his team forward. Coach Glenn Michie was also able to provide some of the zip we haven’t seen for a while and he contributed three goals. The Blues developed a reputation last season and it continued into this season as being a team that ran well offensively but didn’t want a bar of it when the ball was going the other way. On Saturday they were able to correct
that. The likes of Taylor Stratton and Andy Kiely continued their brilliant starts and Tony Mirabella made it 20 goals in the first four matches. On paper, the Blues are a very good side. We just need to start seeing some consistency in passion, effort and willingness to work in what is a very even season. Crib Point is finally on the board after smashing Tyabb by more than 10 goals on Saturday. Its been a very lean beginning for the Magpies and despite some ‘whacking’ from yours truly, they haven’t been able to respond until now. Everyone loves to see the Magpies up and about and they certainly were on the weekend. It was tight in the first half with the Pies leading at home by just eight points at the major break. However, the Pies were let off the leash in the second half and dominated. It seems everyone got involved. Former Crib Point junior Jake Ross snagged six goals in his best performance since crossing from Hastings, Jon Flack helped himself to five majors, Luke Herrington chippedin with four and Matty Sloper got amongst the goals for the second week in a row with three. Without a couple of their stars, including James Cook, the Pies were able to really turn on what we had expected from them all season. Waide Symes was outstanding for the winners, as was Zak Dekleuver, who has been a consistent performer for the Pies. Lee Koerner was also given the responsibility of being
the number one ruckman, which he lapped-up. Ryan Jones worked tirelessly for the Yabbies, as did Craig Conlan, who is in super form. Skipper Ethan Rahilly also tried his best with a couple of goals. Frankston Bombers and Rye went to the wire, the Bombers winning their second close game in as many weeks against good opposition. The Bombers have been able to beat two sides that played finals last season and now remain undefeated at the top of the table. On Saturday at RJ Rowley Reserve, the Bombers led by 14 points at quarter time, by one point at half time and by seven points at three quarter time. Rye had plenty of chances to win the game in the last quarter, however, the Bombers were just more composed when it mattered, winning 15.8.98 to 14.10.94. It was the older heads of Bombers, especically twins Ryan and Nathan Lonie that proved to be the difference between the sides. Coach Duncan Proud was able to get forward and boot a couple of goals, while youngsters in Matt Harris and Anthony Fulton booted three and two goals respectively. Aaron Hunter has also been unassuming this season for the Bombers and he was good yet again. Sean Cain was outstanding for the Demons with three goals and Darren Booth, as we have come to expect, won a lot of his own ball. Ben Holmes kicked four goals and Ben Winters-Kerr managed to slot
through a couple, while Hagan Rice did his job to perfection. Rosebud won its second game in the past three weeks with 10 goals, this time against Somerville. The Buds booted eight goals in the first half, however, were outscored by the Eagles 4.3 to 2.11 after the major interval, sneaking over the line by 21 points, 10.16.76 to 8.9.57. Lachy Armstrong has been an underutilised forward for the Buds this season, despite boasting enoumous ability. However, on Saturday, he was sort-out by the Rosebud mids and finished with three goals to be the major contributor on the ground and one of his team’s best. Ben Shultz snagged two while Matty Payne and Greg Bentley were the dominant performers on the ground yet again. Sam Krumeich is a very underrated player for the Buds in defence but his game again on the weekend was first class. The Eagles were gallant in defeat. Rowan Hogenbirk and Ben Sedgewick led from the front and Jedd Sutton was elusive. Justin Farrelly was also outstanding in the ruck. Dromana continued its destructive form, smashing Red Hill to the tune of 125 points. The Tigers have been devastating since losing to Sorrento on Easter Saturday, belting Hastings, Pearcedale and now the Hillmen. On Saturday up on the wide open spaces of Red Hill, the Tigers had 44 scoring shots to just nine and boasted 11 different goalkickers. Anthony Bruhn booted six, Adam
Loury contributed five and Daniel Waddell kicked three. Jarred Wood was solid in defence, Luke O’Neil dominated in the ruck and gave his small brigade first option and Paul Minchington continued his dominant start to the season. It was a very long afternoon for the Hillmen. Jake Mold, Robbie Mace and Mitch LaFontaine were the best performers for the Hillmen. Sorrento completed the expected and beat Pearcedale, however, it didn’t come before a scare from the Panthers. The Panthers had an outstanding second quarter, where it booted seven goals to two to lead at half time by eight points. However, as expected, the Sharks came out after the break and showed that brilliant form that can turn a game on its head. Sorrento booted nine goals in the third quarter to just one, Leigh Poholke brilliant with seven goals while Ryan Jeffrey dominated across half forward. Guy Stringer rebounded from down back while through the middle, the likes of Leigh Treeby and Cayden Beetham got their hands on the footy. At three quarter time the Sharks had gone from being eight points down to being 47 points in front. The Panthers rallied in the final term and went with the opposition. Pat Heijden was outstanding with seven goals while Chris Fortnam finished with four. Chris Hensby played his best game for his new club and Byron Hoe showed glimpses of his best.

Interleague team selected to begin 2013 campaign INTERLEAGUE By Toe Punt The first squad has been announced for the Peninsula League interleague campaign. A squad of 44 players was selected by Peninsula League coach Steve Ryan and assistant Troy Shannon. Peninsula League will play Ovens & Murray at Visy Park on May 25. The Nepean League squad is almost completed and will be announced later this week, being compiled by coaches Gavin Artico and Glenn Michie. One thing is consistent with
all coaches. If players don’t want to represent their league, they don’t want them to play. Ryan told the RPP Footy Show last Saturday that it was important that Peninsula League had a squad and ultimately 22 players who wanted to represent the league. “Interleague football is a wonderful opportunity for every player in the competition. I loved playing it,” the former Richmond and Collingwood forward said. “Ultimately, we want the best possible 22 players in the side who really want to represent their league,” Ryan said.
Gavin Artico agreed. “If players don’t want to play, we don’t want to waste their time and we don’t want them to waste ours,” Artico said. “We all talk about what league is better – Peninsula or Nepean. “Whilst we’re not in the same division, this does present an opportunity for us to work towards that. Peninsula League will have a meet and greet at Langwarrin’s Lloyd Park on May 1 at 6pm, before training begins at the same venue on May 8.
The Peninsula League squad selected last week is: MORNINGTON Warrick Miller Jackson Calder Callum Searl.

Mornington Pirates remember a lost friend ON the 11th of October, 2011, the Mornington Pirates Baseball Club, and the wider community, lost a much loved, dedicated and polite young man. Jordan Penpraze tragically passed away following a training accident at the Holsworthy Army Barracks in Sydney. Jordan began his 10+ year career at the Pirates in the Under 12s, along with a number of mates from local Mt. Martha Primary School. Jordan was always noted for his dedication to the team, often being the first to arrive at training, and being one of the last to leave. Jordan could always be relied upon when on the diamond or in the batting box. He had a natural ability on the baseball diamond and was often found at 3rd base, 2nd base or on the pitching mound. Jordan developed from those Under 12 days to be a member of the B1 Premiership side in 2007, his first full season within a senior side. His dedication and commitment to his team mates could never have been questioned; as it was always evident that he was giving 110%. He was a fantastic team mate and friend to many at the club. Jordan would constantly talk to all members of the club; he would always be on hand to assist around the club and loved watching an A1s game on the couch down the 3rd base line with a beer in hand. Jordan was pursuing his
and honoured a lost member of our club Jordan Penpraze, the firsts went down 2-1 in a very good tough game of baseball. Brendan Wilson threw 6 innings then handing the ball to Josh Mulherin who kept the Pirates in the game. Frankston played a very good game, taking advantage of an error as well as some good hitting. Mornington rallied late but couldn’t get over the line. Matt Hardie starred with bat collecting 3 hits in very windy conditions. Nick Swanveld played excellent defence. The firsts are now 1-1, looking to add another win next week against Cheltenham.
dream of joining the army when tragedy struck and cut his dream short. However, throughout his 6-month stint as a trainee combat engineer that was set to graduate as a Sapper, Jordan left an impression on those that he had met through the army, being hailed a hero after displaying quick thinking and successfully resuscitating an elderly citizen while on local leave in Sydney. Jordan was a highly respected member of the Mornington Pirates; he will always be re-
membered for his smile and ability to chat with any member of the club. On behalf of the Mornington Pirates Baseball Club committee, family and friends, we offer our deepest condolences to the Penpraze family. Jordan’s enthusiasm and friendship both on and off the field will be truly missed. Gone but never forgotten. Rest in Peace Jordan. SENIORS Mornington A1 vs Frankston On a day that we remembered
Mornington A2 vs Frankston A2-Mornington 2 lost to Frankston 5 The score line didn’t really reflect how close the game was with the scores locked at 2 a piece for majority of the game. In tough windy conditions Ryan Campbell threw extremely well for the Pirates and troubled many Tomato hitters, and was backed up well in relief by Matt Dunn and then Max Meates who were let down by a few errors in the field that handed Frankston the win. Joel Schultz had a great day at the plate for the Pirates with a timely hit and a walk, while Adam Jansen (pictured left) looked solid in his return to the side. Mornington B1 vs Dandenong The final result didn’t reflect the ability shown by the team in this week’s game against the Angels. Great performance by John Harrison who pitched 6 innings not to forget the effort of Ryan Brisbane who was behind the dish. Plenty of hits evenly spread across the whole team. Stand out player was Chris Fenton who went 4 for 4. Great fielding by all. Mornington B2 vs Dandenong B2 The boys travelled to Dandenong to take on last year’s premiers and came home with the biscuits. With new club member Brett Stuesser on the mound for the entire game, we looked a totally different team. He had great back up in the field with no errors, first time I have seen that

in some years at this level. The batting was good at the start and then at the end of the game, with everyone getting hits. Great team effort to knock off a big club like Dandenong 12 - 10 Mornington C2 vs Dingley The C2s managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory going down by one run but was a great performance by all against an experienced Dingley team. Batting was excellent with Tristan Meates leading off with 4 hits, Dick Stumbles 2 and Hannah Le Blanc and Brandon Wyatt their first Senior safe hits. A wily pitching performance by Dick was not enough to get us over the line but well done everyone.
Tom Panich started the game on the mound and made it easy for the rest of the team, striking out 6 batters in three innings. Tom had brilliant support from the infield particularly Jordan Miller getting a crucial tag out at home plate. Zac Garnet finished off the game on the mound striking out 6 batters in 2 innings, leaving nothing for the fielders to do! The team batted brilliantly all morning. Everyone was weary at the plate and waited for a pitch they liked. Cade Johnson, Bonnie Priestly and Brandon Stanisic were all great stealing plenty of bases. Jack Curtis stepped up in the final innings to catch and did an excellent job. All in all a great morning and hopefully we can keep this winning form going for the rest of the season! Go Pirates.
JUNIORS U/17: Mornington Pirates vs Cheltenham Rustlers U17 Pirates were downed by Cheltenham Rustlers 4-2. Hits produced by C. Stuart, J. Chivers, A. DiGiovambattista and R. Butler.
Mornington Black vs Bonbeach The Pirates bounced back well from their scoreless defeat last week scoring 4 runs in the first innings. Safe hits were scored throughout the game by Pierson, Tedesco, Homberger, Bald, McDonald and Chiurawa. Two bombs were drilled out to centre field by Tedesco & new comer Chiurawa. The pitching combination of Homberger & Pierson stemmed the flow of Bonbeach runs being supported by great infield work from Knox and others. The boys were rattled slightly at bat when Bonbeach brought in their big guns to pitch, slowing the on base appearances. All in all the Pirates held their own but were defeated by Bonbeach 13 - 5. Next weeks game is against Berwick at Berwick.
U/15: Mornington Gold vs Cheltenham Blue The boys played their first home game of the season in magnificent sunny conditions. We held a strong Cheltenham side to 4 runs after 3 innings with our boys scoring 2 in that period, largely thanks to Angus Paterson going 2 for 2 with the bat. Also pitching superbly in his 3rd innings of work, backed by some descent catching behind the plate from Jamie Bagg - Haffey, and the infield looking sharp. Unfortunately conceding 6 runs in the 4th innings hurt but the boys battled well learning plenty and most of all having plenty of fun playing the game with the right spirit. U/13: Mornington Gold vs Berwick What a great effort by the under 13 gold team this week. We played Berwick at home for our first home game of the year. After last weeks disappointing ending to the game, it was fantastic to see the whole team come together to contribute to the win! We managed to keep Berwick scoreless for the entire game, beating them 13 to Nil.
U/11: Mornington Pirates vs Dandenong The Under-11’s Mornington Pirates baseball team rallied in the final minutes to score a run to tie the game 6-6, against Dandenong. Deyne Foxall, was a standout player with 3 home runs and Jarrod Musticone was awarded the MVP, because of his pitching and base-running skills. The team didn’t need the coach to step-in and pitch the ball to them, because they really hit well off the opposition pitchers.

Mornington introductory offer. 20% off all vaccinations, consultations and routine de-sexing. Book today! Our Vet: 5971 0655. Promotion ends 30th June 2013, Mornington store only. Monday to Friday only. Not in conjunction with any other offer.
In every Best Friends, you’ll find Our Vet. Our Vet™ recommends regular check-ups for your best friend to ensure we identify any problems as early as possible. We call this "Twice for Life": two examinations a year to help your pets to stay as healthy as possible, and to make sure they spend many happy years by your side.
Our philosophy. Our pet care philosophy is centred around the concept of preventative health. Our aim is to keep your pet in optimal condition to reduce the likelihood of illness. You know your pet better than anyone else. That's why we listen to your input carefully, then bring our expertise to give your pet the best, most personal care possible. After every visit you receive a VetMap - a report to share with the family covering the results of the assessment and general observations, including advice on how to improve your pet’s wellbeing.
Groomin’ marvellous. Grooming your dog is an essential part of responsible dog care. At Best Friends, we offer professional dog grooming 7 days a week to help your dog stay in the best of health. Part of the grooming process in our salons is to do a snout to tail assessment, taking time to thoroughly check your pet in areas that you don’t often look at or touch. Mats and hot spots can develop anywhere – especially under the legs, behind the collar and in the groin area. We also check the skin for sores, ticks and fleas. Additional services such as ear cleaning, nail trimming, flea rinses and other added extras for the health and beauty of your dog are available at all of our salons.
Mornington introductory offer. Book for an appointment before 30 June, 2013 and receive up to $20 to spend in store! A range of services are available from beauty baths and pawdicures to breed-specific grooms and health essentials.
Spend over $50 on Grooming Service and get a $10 voucher to purchase any products in store. Spend over $80 on Grooming Service and get a $20 voucher.
Phone 5971 0600. Voucher generated in store and is not valid for services, gift cards or live animals. Mornington store only.
