THE navigable path will be removed from Lock 6 at Murtho today to manage the increasing water flows as River Murray levels continue to rise. SA Water River Murray Operations Manager, Berri, Brenton Erdmann said flows into South Australia have reached 55,000 megalitres per day and is predicting flows to climb even higher. “We’re not quite sure what level it’s going to get to because there was a fair bit of rain through northern New South Wales and southern Victoria,” he said.
REPORT BY
BRAD PERRY “We’re still waiting for an assessment from the Murray Darling Basin Authority as to what that is likely to mean, whether that means flows will go bigger or whether it means that it might just take a bit longer for flows to recede. “Flows may go a little bit higher than what we are seeing now.”
With the removal of the navigable path at Lock 6 today and the same process already having occured at Locks 7 and 8, Mr Erdmann said it may be a possibility that other lock chambers will not be used if the high flows continue. “At Lock 7, for example, everything is under water, there is no sign of the lock chamber at all, it’s completely under water and at Lock 8 it’s over the top of the weir as well,” he said. ■ Continued Page 5

Future of lake’s plan uknown By BRAD PERRY LAKE Bonney Management Committee chairman Joe Gropler believes the early removal of Lake Bonney’s temporary regulator has jeopardised any hope of receiving funding to complete the lake’s long term plan. After mounting pressure from the Berri Barmera Council and the local community, State Water Minister Paul Caica announced last week the Napper’s Bridge regulator would be removed, acting on the communities wishes. “The State Government has worked closely with the Lake Bonney Community Management Committee to ensure a healthy future for the lake and we have listened to all viewpoints on the future of the regulator in making this decision,” Mr Caica said. The LBMC is seeking another $40,000 from the State Government to complete its long term management plan and Mr Gropler has vowed to continue fighting for the lake’s future until “they sack me”. “If we’d waited a bit longer, the regulator could have been removed but we’d be $40,000 better off because Mr Caica would have given us $40,000 to finish off the management plan for the lake,” he said. “Now the regulator comes out a couple of weeks early and we don’t get $40,000. “We as ratepayers will be expected to pick it up.” Save Lake Bonney Group member Robyn O’Dea said the removal of the regulator is good news. “The disasters and lack of water savings from the three years of disconnection should be proof for future generations that no government has any justifiable reason to ever disconnect Lake Bonney ever again,” she said.
Basin submission extension THE Murray Darling Basin Authority has announced submissions for the controversial basin plan guide can be lodged until December 17. With around 1000 items of feedback received so far, a spokesperson said the authority has already assessed a large body of information. “Where people find this new date impossible to comply with, the authority has suggested that people might consider providing their feedback in instalments,” the spokesperson said. “In addition, we are prepared to consider any individual requests for further extensions where there might be particular issues.” Feedback can be provided through the MDBA website and also via mail, email and phone 1800 230 067.

Flow brings good vibes for region THERE is a great feeling of anticipation and well-being right across the Riverland at the moment as water levels rise in the Murray. It is the first time in my nearly 13 years in the Riverland that I have seen the river this high, so I am amongst those with a sense of anticipation. After so long without water, it is hard to understand how people below Lock One at places such as Blanchetown and Swan Reach must be feeling about the current flows. This is a wonderful boost for our region and one which will hopefully translate to a tourism bonanza, as well as some positive headlines down in the city. Already local houseboat operators are fielding increased enquiries from people wishing to come to our region. We are also hearing cautionary tales from operators suggesting that some houseboaters are, amazingly, getting lost on our floodplains as water inundates them for the first time in many years. Hopefully we can all find a way to enjoy the benefits, even if they are just aesthetic, of this wonderful flow mak-

Applicants await approval for Taskforce funding By BRAD PERRY FIVE applicants will find out in the new year whether they are the first to access the $20 million sustainable futures fund through the Riverland Futures Taskforce. Taskforce director Robyn Cain ended her role with the group yesterday, with the implementation of the regional prospectus and futures fund to now be administered through Regional Development Australia in Berri. Ms Cain said not a dollar of the $20 million fund has yet to be spent. “We had five applications
that we recently assessed and we have referred them to the minister (Michael O’Brien), which is the process we have, and further assessment will hat level, be undertaken at that level,� she said. “The $20 million fund is still sitting there. “It’s only there to be drawn upon purely and simply to do the projects we need to do, that we’ve outlined in the prospectus. “It’s a good thing it’s there and it’s not being drawn down for administrative or
other reasons.� While there have been minimal applications made to date, Ms Cain said a number of organisations have shown interest in applying

“I expect we will be having another wave of them (submissions) probably before the end of the year and probably some more again early in the new year.� While unable to com-
ment on specific applications, Ms Cain said those who have currently requested access to the fund will find out if they are successful in the coming months. “We aim to have a turnaround time of around eight weeks from application stage to approval, so it’s probably about halfway through that process at the moment,� she said. The current submitted projects will be diversifying from the industries the Riverland currently has and create jobs in the region, according
Riverland’s wet start to summer
Local gardeners to shun sprinklers By BRAD PERRY SOME Riverland gardeners will boycott using sprinklers despite Level 3 Enhanced water restrictions being replaced by new Water Wise measures as of yesterday. With the new restrictions in place, there will no longer be set watering times for using hand held hose or drip irrigation systems and householders will again be able to use sprinklers to water gardens. Waikerie and District Garden Club publicity officer Pat Brandon said the region has adapted to water efficient gardens with native plants and said many people will not need to use sprinklers. “I know I definitely won’t,� she said. “I think the majority have adapted to the water restrictions and they will probably keep it that way. “A lot of people have changed over to natives and they don’t need as much water as other things anyway. “I don’t think there will be too much difference (with the new measures in place).� Renmark Garden Club president Elaine Schier agreed that locals have adjusted well to the lack of available water. “I think a lot of people have changed the style of their gardens,� she said. “I have spoken to some people and they’ve done other things with drippers and they find that very reliable.�
Riverland gardeners will now be able to use sprinklers before 10am and after 5pm on any day. State Water Minister Paul Caica said a new rebate scheme called H2OME is also now in place. “The rebate on approved garden products has been increased to allow gardeners who spend a minimum of $100 on eligible water efficient garden products, to claim 50 per cent of the cost, up to $200 as a rebate,� he said. “The vast majority of South Australians have embraced water restrictions and have done the right thing during this severe and sustained period of drought and I am confident gardeners will limit water use to only what is necessary to keep their gardens alive.� Meanwhile, Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone believes the announcement to keep irrigator water allocations at 67 per cent, made by the State Government yesterday, while lifting water restrictions, is unfair and inequitable. Mr Whetstone said while lawns will be green and swimming pools full, food producers are forced to be without extra allocations. “Angry irrigated food producers in the Riverland would be forgiven for thinking they alone must bear the burden of water restrictions,� he said. “Domestic water users are now allowed to use sprinklers on their lawns and hose down driveways, while irrigators must contend with 67 per cent water allocations for the remainder of 2010-11.�
IT may have been the first day of summer in the Riverland but the sun was far from being seen yesterday. Rainfall in Renmark was recorded at 43 millimetres last month, with 21 mm falling on Monday and Tuesday alone. With the region experiencing thunderstorms yesterday and the same forecasted for tomorrow, it will be a wet start to what is supposed to be the hot season.

RIVER’S RISING WATER LEVELS
Princess makes guest appearance in the region By CALLUM TRIFONOFF FOR the first time in nearly five years, the Riverland has an unexpected, yet welcome guest to our stretch of the Murray River. The Murray Princess paddlesteamer this week completed a seven-night river trip, which involved going into dry dock at Renmark, and Captain Cook Cruises’ Virginia Moorfield said the crew was delighted to be back in the region. Due to the drought and low-water levels in recent times the Murray Princess has
been forced to stay away from the Riverland. “It’s just great for the Murray Princess to be back and on a smooth trip,” Mrs Moorfield said. “Our passengers just love the cruises to the Riverland. “A couple of years ago, we couldn’t even get through Lock 1.” Every two years, a survey of the Murray River is done by the Murray Princess staff and the high-water has made it all the easier for the giant paddlesteamer to complete the task. Mrs Moorfield said the
seven-night trip to Renmark was highly awaited by eager tourists who were keen to visit the region once again on the Murray Princess. The vessel will be in the region until the end of its Christmas cruise on December 24. ■ CRUISING: The Murray Princess made a special trip to Renmark this week from its Mannum home, thanks to rising river levels.

Houseboat holidays booms with renewed interest By BRAD PERRY HOUSEBOAT operators across the region have felt renewed enthusiasm in the industry due to the rising river levels. Liba Liba Houseboat owner Carissa Austin said the phone has been running hot with bookings. “We’ve definitely seen more interest in houseboat holidays and improving our bookings and there’s certainly a lot of flows and the river’s looking absolutely beautiful, just nice and fresh and flushed out and alive,” she said. “We’re pretty positive about the upcoming peak season. “The (amount of) bookings has certainly picked up with the rise of the river. “It’s good for us but also one houseboat holiday
■ STOKED: Libba Libba houseboat owners Carissa and Greg Austin have welcomed the interest in bookings in recent months. means a lot for other businesses in the region.” Morgan Waterfront Marina owner Lisa Pogorecki said the word has spread fast about the rising river levels, changing people’s perceptions. “We didn’t have any problems with the so called lower river levels because here at
Morgan we’ve been at pool level consistently because we’ve got the water filtration plant,” she said. “Our water levels haven’t changed over the past five years with the drought, it’s just people’s perception whether there’s no water or too much water.”
Chowilla regulator works stall as water levels increase WORK on the Chowilla Creek environmental regulator has been temporarily suspended due to the increasing water levels. SA Water River Murray Operations Manager, Berri,
Brenton Erdmann said other works have also been stalled due to recent flows. “The high water levels have meant we’ve had to temporarily suspend work at the
main structure at Chowilla regulator and there’s a bit of work happening at Lock 2 and Lock 4 we’ve had to suspend as well,” he said. “The contractors have made the
site safe and once water levels drop, they’ll pump the water out of the coffer dams and off they’ll go again. “It’s just caused a delay while we have a break for the high rivers.”

■ WATER LEVELS: The upstream and downstream storage water levels at the six Riverland Locks as of 2pm yesterday shows some Locks are on the verge of being opened. Photo: SOURCED FROM THE MURRAY DARLING BASIN AUTHORITY WEBSITE ■ From Page 1 “It depends on what flows may occur at a couple of other locks yet but we are right on the cusp of whether we continue the lock chamber or start using the navigable path. “It’s a section of the weir that’s removed once water levels become such that it’s no longer safe to use the lock chamber and so boats go through this which is effectively a gap in the lock.” Mr Erdmann said SA Water will work with the Department of Water to release information about expected river flows. “The last time we saw any pro-
longed high rivers was in the mid 90s,” he said. “The river’s starting to get to a stage now where we are seeing some overbank flow, so there needs to be some information coming out to people on what we expect the flows to get to and what we think the levels will get to at certain locations.” Murray Darling Association general manager Ray Najar said the river needs at least 80,000 megalitres per day to reach a critical point where flooding would occur. “The levels below the locks have gone up close to three metres but the levels above the locks...have remained almost static,” he said.
“The water from Victoria is still about three weeks away and by that time this peak would have already passed. “We haven’t had anything like this situation for at least 15 years or more.” Mr Najar said the increased river flows are the perfect opportunity to flush the salt out of the wetlands. “It does mean, too, it is a good opportunity for the government to allow some of the saltload to get released,” he said. “There is an opportunity to open up any dead storage in wetlands that have been regulated, for example Gurra Lakes.”
Rising water levels force councils to section off areas RIVERLAND councils have had to section off some areas of the river with water levels rising more than three metres. Renmark Paringa Council Mayor Neil Martinson said access to Plush’s Bend has been lost
as the creek has spilled over the camping area and several other roads may need to be closed if flows continue to raise river levels. “We are keeping our eye on a couple of other things, there’s the Causeway Road
at Paringa and obviously we also need to keep an eye over Lyrup as well,” he said. “If you get 80,000 megs then you start looking at the Loxton/Berri Road as well.” The Loxton Waikerie
Council was forced to remove the Loxton Town Wharf pontoon due to increased flows. The level of the river in the Berri town area has risen significantly with a portion of Martin’s Bend grass frontage under water.

Traders hope tills will jingle all the way By BRAD PERRY RIVERLAND businesses are hoping the Christmas dollar spreads further this year as rising river levels and the prospect of high harvest yields have restored confidence in the region. Berri Traders Association secretary Barry Phillips hopes businesses will benefit from tourists flocking to the area over the festive period. “We will be hoping that the caravan parks, hotels and motels are full and people are out camping,” he said. “Having tourists in the region certainly helps to build a buffer in the business side of things to ensure all businesses can help survive through the year. “Hopefully that dollar is being generated right throughout the Riverland not just in any one town.” Now is the most important time for retailers to gain extra income from Christmas trade, according to Loxton Chamber of Commerce business and events manager Sonya Altschwager. “It’s more important now than it’s ever been before and the retailers try and provide the services and products people are looking for,” she said. “So what we can do is try and look in our local shops first when we are looking at buying. “We’re hoping for a bit more (money) to flow in as

a result of all that (local positivity).” Renmark Paringa Traders Association president Dave Patty said he is looking forward to a strong Christmas in the local retail sector. “The area has been in an economic downturn, so one would hope we are getting out of that,” he said. “The only way anything is going to get better here is by investing in it, that means spending your money here.” With several new shops opening their doors in Waikerie this year, Riverland West Chamber of Commerce
secretary John Sullivan said the atmosphere in the area is really positive. “It’s not only the money (being spent) it’s the spirit,” he said. “When the shopkeeper is struggling they haven’t got a smile on their face but when there’s a bit of local money coming through all the time, then the atmosphere is much happier around the town. “The more people spend at Christmas the better.” n Christmas festival pictures Page 10

doctors right at home By BRAD PERRY THE Riverland is using highly skilled international medical graduates to fill the continuing doctor shortage in what is being described as a “lifeline” for the region. Riverland Division of General Practice chair Dr Grant Baker said more than half of the region’s doctors have come from overseas. “I think in many ways we are very lucky to have some of the international medical graduates we have here,” Dr Baker said. “In our own practice, one of the doctors, before he came to work here, he was doing a whole lot of surgery including taking bullets out of people’s hearts and all sorts of things. “Those sorts of skills are just amazing. “I think the overseas trained doctors, or international medical graduates, we’ve now got, have become an integral part (of the region).” In the past the Riverland has been deemed an area of need, so international doctors have been sent to the region but Dr Baker believes that may soon change. “I think the tide’s probably going to turn soon,” he said. “I think we are gradually depleting, if you like,
But still we must wait for appointments...

the stocks of international medical graduates from other places and they are starting to train more and more local (Australian) medical students. “The international trainees that we’ve got here have just been brilliant and are a big part of their local church community and their school community and add to the region through more ways than just their medical practice.” Lake Bonney Private Medical Centre practice manager Kym Bament praised the international medical graduates who have come to the region, with many of them decid-
ing to stay permanently. “We’re relying a lot now on international medical graduates, so you get overseas trained doctors coming in and looking for placement and we are going more and more to that,” he said. “You have to take advantage of the fact you’ve got skilled overseas doctors looking for placements. “It’s just so important to get behind them and give them as much support as we possibly can.” In fact, the practice is currently expanding to create more room for its six doctors, medical students and other services.
A prime example of overseas doctors heading to the region is the Waikerie Medical Centre’s new GP from New Mexico, USA, Dr Patrick Martin. Dr Martin, his wife Tracey and their three children, have all settled into the region well and he said choosing to move to the region was an easy choice. “I just felt like we were met with open arms,” he said. “As far as anyone who wants to general practice, it’s an ideal setting. “I just felt like I really fit in well when I came up here to interview.”

Anguish over zone changes By BRAD PERRY BERRI Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton has conceded there are certain scenarios that will have to be taken into account in the proposed development plan’s zoning policies after a public consultation meeting on Tuesday night. Residents turned out in force to the meeting to submit their concerns about changes to the zoning policies, which would see new homes being built on horticultural land having to be at least eight hectares. Mr Beaton said all three
Riverland councils will hear the same concerns at meetings across the region this week and they will be taken into account. “Each of the three councils will have the same problem as we had last night...and obviously it will be a whole problem across the Riverland that we’ll have to try and address so it’s a hard balancing act,” he said. “The thing is, when you change the planning rules it’s going to be impossible to make everybody happy.” Mr Beaton said there were several issues raised about the amended development
■ CONCERN: Under zoning policy changes, former horticultural land will only be divided into a minimum of eight hectare blocks for residential housing. plan from residents. “There was a few different views, one was there’s lots of
small blocks out there and perhaps we can allow houses on them,” he said. “Others are saying I’ve taken a package and unless I can subdivide some of these ones, or sell them off and allow someone to have a house on them, the value of them just plummets. “The other view was the protection of the horticultural land.” As similar anguish has been heard repeatedly since the proposed changes to the development plan were first released, Mr Beaton said changes may be made. “It’s up to the councils
to decide but we might have some different scenarios that compromises some of those things that have been put in there now,” he said. “So there might be some different ways things will be able to be looked at but obviously that will be up for discussion in the new year.” Monash resident Ron Lieven expressed his concern about the plan in a submission recorded the meeting’s agenda. “To have an eight hectare minimum size limit on dryland blocks in our area would be a monumental backward step for progress, stifling any potential devel-
opment and effective use of land,” he said. Tim Grieger of SA Fresh Fruit Growers Association said mixing horticultural land and rural living could have a negative affect on the region. “If non farming residential development continues to expand into the horticulture zone we are very concerned that eventually the integrity of the horticulture zone would be so seriously eroded as to render the continuation of farming in the zone difficult, if not prohibitive in some instances,” he said.
Berri Barmera Care provides food for thought By BRAD PERRY

YOU may not see them in everyday life but there are many people across the Riverland requiring emergency relief to help them survive. Newly formed entity Berri Barmera Care, designed to provide help for the less fortunate, has moved into the former Country Women’s Association rooms in Berri. The group which incorporates the Combined Churches Welfare and Berri Barmera Minister’s Association, is already looking to provide new services in the large premises, which includes a kitchen and meeting areas. Lutheran Church pastor Tim Klein said the group has operated under the title of Combined Churches Welfare for more than a decade administering gov-
ernment funding and local donations in the form of food and vouchers to those in need. “We see it very much as a starting place and we’re open to the idea of people who have hearts who want to help the disenfranchised people in our community and people who are doing it tough,” he said. “They need our care and how we as a community care for people on the edges, is a reflection of how healthy our community is. “Often the people we help are the unseen and often they are disconnected.” The group formerly operated from a room at Mission Australia and Mr Klein said the new premises provides the opportunity for greater services. “If we’ve got people who are interested in providing a meal one day a week, we’ve got the facility to do that,
if we’ve got people in the community who are interested in providing financial budgeting help, we’ve got the facility to do it, if we’ve got people who areinterested in doing cookery classes, low-cost food preparation, then we’ve got the facility to do it,” he said. “We have a dedicated team of volunteers who do a good job caring for people.” Pastor Klein said moving into the new rooms would not be possible without the help of the Berri Barmera Council. “They’re providing these premises at a community partnership rate and that makes it possible for us to be here and I really commend the council for their vision and seeing it this way,” he said.

Commissioner in the region to help stop...
■ NO WAY: Locals participate in a shout out competition at White Ribbon Day in Berri last week, while (inset) state commissioner for victim rights Michael O’Connell attended the event. Photos: CALLUM TRIFONOFF
Domestic violence By CALLUM TRIFONOFF RIVERLAND men have been urged to give violence against women the boot at the recent White Ribbon Day event in Berri. State commissioner for victim rights Michael O’Connell came to the region last week to not only support Riverlanders with their White Ribbon campaign but to also help send a message about violence against women. “It is estimated that one in three women suffer some form of violence in an intimate relationship,” Mr O’Connell said.
“Women, one in five, are likely to be victims of sexual assault and when we look at those statistics, we see the perpetrators are most often men.” Mr O’Connell helped judge the shouts on top of the Berri bridge, part of the White Ribbon Day event where local campaigners shouted “no more, no way”, to do their bit to stop violence against women. Mr O’Connell said violence against women, and domestic violence in general, costs the Australian economy approximately $8.1 billion. He sent a strong mes-
sage to the Riverlanders, over what they could do to stop domestic violence. “We need to change the attitude of people to violence in general,” Mr O’Connell said. “I think it’s important that the people here have been prepared to make a stance. “Particularly men, who have prepared to stand in the middle of the Berri Bridge and pledge their opposition to violence against women.” The White Ribbon Day event was well attended with participators successful in their ‘shout out’ protests.

Spring time brings the lizards to the yard
Spooky happenings at local hotel By BRAD PERRY RENMARK Hotel has an extensive history being more than 100 years old, so it is no surprise it has earned itself a reputation as one of the most haunted spots in South Australia. A group of workers from outside the region staying at the hotel recently were scared out of their wits when they encountered a ghost in their room. More than one person was convinced he had awoken to see the ghostly spirit and hotel manager Michael Schuetze said there have been several reports of ghost sightings over the years. “We had one woman who didn’t know anything about the hotel being haunted and said there was people in the corridor at night,” he said. “She said there were loud sounds of footsteps. “We didn’t have anyone else staying on the floor that night.” Mr Schuetze said there have also been many reports of energy orbs at the Riverland landmark and while he is sceptical about the existence of ghosts, believes, if there is a spot that would be haunted in the region, it would be the hotel. “If ghosts are true, this is definitely the sort of place they are going to haunt because it’s so old,” Mr Schuetze said. Several clairvoyants have been through the hallways of the hotel’s accommodation and reported the presence of spirits, according to Mr Schuetze.

Rain and locusts still a grain harvest worry By BRAD PERRY HEAVY rains across the Riverland and Mallee this week are not the only concern for farmers, with fears that remains of locusts will be caught in wheat samples. With the harvest in full swing, persistent rain and locust spottings in the past week have intruded on the quality of what has been predicted as a record yield. Wunkar broadacre farmer Jeff Evans said locusts eating the crop are no longer a big challenge but their remains may be. “Locusts may be a problem yet but they won’t be so much of a problem of eating the crops for much longer but they will certainly be a problem if we get too many in our sample in the grain as we reap,”
■ MOVE: Some local farmers have had to move their cattle to higher ground as a result of the rising river. Photo: JANE WILSON he said. For Waikerie farmer Alan Buckley, the locust situation is just one of several issues to overcome. “Farmers generally have done pretty much what they can (with the locust situation) but it’s the ones that have escaped, which was
inevitably going to happen, that are still out there,” he said. “They are starting to get on the wing and we are starting to see numbers of them now. “Protein will be an issue and also locusts in the sample. “The other issue that people
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Special revamp WHAT great news! The Riverland Special School is going to relocate. The school most in need of a building program has finally been listened to. It is, after all, the only school in the whole Riverland not to be built on flat ground (unbelievable, given that many of the students have mobility problems). Enrolments continue to increase, as do the needs of these special children. So…to the hard working and dedicated staff, hang in there. To the parents of our kids with special needs, keep pushing until the job is done. And to anyone involved in any way with this project, please get on with it. As the need is very great. Wendy Pillay, Loxton.
Great event PLEASE convey through your publication our congratulations to your community and all involved in the Loxton lights festival. I particularly enjoyed all
the activities and stalls available in street, as well as the fashion parade at LamiSaru and, of course, the spectacular fireworks display. We stayed at the Loxton Hotel and it is certainly ‘one of SA’s great country pubs’, as their brochure claims. Throughout the weekend we were consistently treated with friendly and helpful courtesy and respect by everyone we came in contact with. Thank you once again and we will certainly be back. Pamela Green, Murray Bridge.
Tennis show success THANK you to the Riverland Weekly for its coverage of 90 years tennis at Barmera. Those who took the opportunity to help celebrate the milestone in the club’s history, enjoying an evening of fellowship with many memories and photos, past players and current players appreciated the memorabilia. With 16 junior teams competing, the club can look forward to 100 years. Joy Mules, Barmera.
Christmas thanks I WOULD like to say ‘thank you’ to the Berri Barmera Council and the service club who provided and served a lovely meal while we were listening to the great entertainment at the annual Christmas dinner. A lot of the seniors had made sure to bring gold coins to put in the bucket that didn’t come. As we were leaving, I asked Mayor Peter Hunt if they had forgotten about it. His answer floored me. His reply was that when they did it last year, some people complained and said it shouldn’t be necessary as it was run by the council. Surely a gold coin is a small price to pay when you take advantage of a free meal and free drinks of your choice when the money goes to something that benefits the Riverland when they need it. What about the local man who gave up a whole day to drive the bus to and from Adelaide? Having to get up at 5.30 to 6am in the morning and returning maybe 12 hours later, “good on you fellows”. I’ve heard nothing but praise for these men who are so friendly and helpful.
need to be aware of is grain contamination from chemical residues from the locust spray.” Alawoona farmer John Gladigau agreed the risk of locusts eating crops has been replaced. “Locust risk eating the crops has really passed us, bar potential for locusts contaminating the grain,” he said. With several locusts flying around his Paringa property, wheat farmer Nathan Rover was not convinced locusts would have an impact. “You’re allowed to have three or something pre sample and that is quite a few and we’re just not seeing them in the box at the moment,” he said. Spraying for locusts is expected to continue for at least another fort-
night and Biosecurity SA Incident Controller Michael McManus said it is important chemicals do not affect crops. “It’s critical that farmers follow withholding periods for any spraying that they conduct and the same goes for our aerial program,” he said. “We are talking with farmers before we do any spraying now to make sure they are not harvesting that crop within a withholding period.” Meanwhile, the rising river waters are causing further problems for farmers, with many having to move cattle and sheep to higher land. Farmers in the Loxton area have been particularly busy moving their beasts away from the river.
Have your say about the issues that affect you. I have experienced this myself. Pacemakers and Palms Bingo Clubs are happy to hold bingo days for the medical bus to help with the upkeep. I would just like to say if you begrudge donating a gold coin just don’t do it, but don’t complain, just leave it to the majority who had their coins ready. As the saying goes, “there is always a few who stuff things up for everyone else”. This is a wonderful service for us Riverlanders, some when they are having a very worrying time. So let’s stop complaining and let’s keep it going. Save the complaints until the council puts the rates up to cover the whole cost. June Sonntag, Berri.
Love not a right Love is not a human right. It cannot be demanded or
claimed. Love is a gift, whether between parents or siblings, between friends or relatives or between people and pets; love is a gift; a precious gift that gives meaning and pleasure to all our lives. Sex is designed for the procreation of the species. Not necessarily as an expression of love. Marriage is a legal status designed to identify a man’s legitimate heirs. The Christian church has taken the giftedness of love and elevated it with marriage into a holy estate in which a man and a woman...“become one in heart and mind and body; that children may be born and brought up in security and love; that home and family life may be strengthened and that society may stand upon firm foundations”. How confused then are the promoters of same sex marriage? How will society differentiate between him-marriages
and her-marriages? Considering how many legally married people are already failing/failed in their relationships (towards each other and their children) it seems love can be a fickle emotion on which to build a lifelong relationship. The law as it now stands reflects marriage in a way everyone understands; changing its serious and binding nature to include same sex unions seems an eroding of the firm foundations our society was laid down on. Let the same sex relationships people pursue the legalising of their unions, if they must, but find another word. For love is a precious gift to be nurtured with honour and integrity. When times are tough in a relationship, the memory of loves dawning can sustain a couple until peace returns. Jeanette Staehr, Barmera.

Science all a game for Susanna By CALLUM TRIFONOFF SAINT Albert’s Catholic School student Susanna Grigson, 11, lit up the SASTA Oliphant Science Awards in September, by making her own game.

life and she’s always been into the ‘whos, hows and wheres’ of science.� Susanna made the design and logo on the circuit box of the game herself, but said she had help with the electrical parts of the project. “You had a dice and you have to roll it and collect different parts of the circuit,� Susanna said. “When all six are collected, then you make a circuit and you have to do it before the timer runs out.�

■VISIT: (From left) Members services manager for South Australia Hannah Trevilyan, Marschall First National principal Bill Marschall and First National CEO Ray Ellis during his visit to the region recently. By BRAD PERRY A WAIKERIE real estate business has been labelled as one of First National’s leading offices from a total of 500 sites around Australia and New Zealand. First National chief executive Ray Ellis, who visited Marschall First National in Waikerie recently, said the business should be proud of how far it has come. “They’re the epitome of what I think Australian small business is about,� he said. “Been in the town forever, strong community roots, a family business in its essence and Bill’s mother still comes to work everyday and the grandchildren are working there. “It’s just a great Australian success story. “From our point of view they are one of our leading offices.�
Mr Ellis also praised the town and believes places such as Waikerie will have people flocking to it in the coming years. “Australia has a housing shortage crisis and as a result of that, over the next 10 to 15 years, Australians, for the first time in the history of our country, will actually move back to the country,� he said. “If I’m a young couple, I can quite easily live in Waikerie now a lot easier than 50 years ago.� With Murray River levels high, Mr Ellis said it was great to see what he described as a great Australian panorama. “As an Australian it was great to just stand there and see the Murray the way it was,� he said. “It winds and turns and the dead gum trees on the side and the fact the lagoons are full because we’ve had so much water and rain.�
Cullough believes the day is a celebration of ability, not disability. “We make an effort to celebrate the day every year, no matter what,� Mrs McCullough said. “The school program is put on hold so we can celebrate the day.� The day is sanctioned by the United Nations (UN) and was established in 1992 to promote an understanding of people with a disability. Mrs McCullough said the Special School is hoping other organisations will join it in a bid to support those with disabilities. Meanwhile, Lifestyle Assistance & Accommodation Service Inc (LAAS) is also a strong supporter of IDPWD and this year is no exception. LAAS chief executive Ruth Firstbrook, said the organisation will be conducting a car rally in Loxton. “One of our
staff members has gone and posed 20 questions around Loxton,� Mrs Firstbrook said. “The aim is to go around (the town) and find the answers to the questions.� LAAS, like the Special School, has been tireless in its efforts to commemorate IDPWD in the past. “We try to have everything that promotes the day,� Mrs Firstbrook said. “We’ve had the launch of books, a sausage sizzle, cricket by the river and this year, we decided to have a car rally.� Mrs Firstbrook said tomorrow the light will shine on people with disabilities around the world. “This year, the UN has been clear with (its IDPWD slogan) ‘Keeping the Promise’, she said. “We need to keep the promise to people with disabilities that they will be included in the community.�

■COFFEE: The Tower Tavern at Renmark makes the perfect coffee or iced chocolate every time and all in a perfect setting (below). YOU may have noticed how hard it is to get a coffee that is perfect every time. However, the staff at the Tower Tavern make it seem easy. Using fresh Amanti coffee, the Tower Tavern’s Golden Moka blend in their coffee really makes it stand out and taste fantastic. “We use a medium roast, which has a full-bodied flavour but still with a smooth taste, so you get the coffee hit without any unpleasant aftertaste,� manager Andrew Freeman said. They have a full range of beverages available, including the popular cappuccino, latte and macchiato, and short and long black and flat white coffees, as well as yummy iced coffee and chocolate for when the weather heats up. Other drinks from the coffee bar include hot chocolate and chai. “I have been extremely

UST minutes from the Berri township and privately set back off the bitumen frontage, this north east aspect home has been strategically built to combat the River Land climate and embrace its peaceful nature friendly surrounds. Sixteen acres of natural scrub land surrounds the property making it great for the petrol enthused motorcyclist, horse lover, or the people just wanting to get closer to nature. The open plan kitchen features all the equipment to create that special meal. The breakfast bar gives an option for informal
meals, while joining the kitchen and dining together, to give an open, light and airy feel. The lounge is huge in size with carpet underfoot, combustion heater and sliding doors onto both the rear verandah and front decked entertaining area. Adjoining is the rumpus room with ample space for the pool and air hockey table, lounge and of course personal bar. Sleeping zones two and three are cleverly positioned around the pool to give a resort style picture through the large window panes every morning.

invite the river and natural light into the main lounge, and optionally merge or act as a barrier between in and outdoor entertaining. Contemporary high gloss kitchen cabinetry with state of the art soft close mechanisms brings new to the old, whilst the large Jarrah breakfast bar and old world wood stove give hints of its origin. The innovative central cooking station provides endless preparation space for the most skilled family chef or kids to prepare their morning cereal breakfast. Thick stone walls, large return verandahs and a newly installed, extensively zoned three phase ducted air conditioner, is certain to give all year climate comfort, regardless of the ever changing seasons. A symmetrical row of old world stone buildings may be home to the pool table, dart board, or that separate office away from home. There is also an underground cellar ideal for keeping the wine connoisseur’s favorite drop, that constant temperature. Surrounding the property is a series of pet enclosures ranging from chicken coops to a stable, while for the men there is endless amounts of lockable and implement shedding giving endless storage for the big boy’s toys.

b u l The Renmark C k r a m n e 010 R 2 Pageant a must s a m t s i r Ch Pageant see event E
VERY year, Renmark puts on a show with the Renmark Club Christmas Pageant drawing large crowds. This year, Riverlanders are in for a treat as the pageant will see one of its biggest ever fireworks displays and more creative floats. The Renmark Club Christmas Pageant has so much more to offer as well, officially getting under way at 5pm, Santa’s Cave opens at 5.30pm, and the pageant procession will roll at 7pm. Pageant committee mem-
ber Rhiannon Pinyon said Renmark is set for a buzz of entertainment. “This year, the fireworks spectacular is the biggest Renmark has seen for some time, so we are more than looking forward to that,” Mrs Pinyon said. “We’ve got two performances (6.15 and 8.20pm) by the Roving Street Artist called ‘Cone People’. “Ticklish Allsorts are also performing after the pageant at 8.15pm. Mrs Pinyon said the pageant committee will be selling glowsticks for children on the night, adding extra colour. The pageant currently has 25 floats scheduled, which is not as many as last year’s 49, but Mrs Pinyon said organisers will still be expecting floats on the day. With plenty of food and entertainment, which will be available from 5pm, she believes the show will be a success.
“The build up has gone a lot smoother this year,” she said. “Last year, we actually considered folding the committee but it’s easier now because we’ve done it all before. “There was never any chance of us at all, folding this year, a lot of hard work was put in by the committee.” Mrs Pinyon said the pageant is also accepting non-perishable foods for the Riverland Christmas Appeal. “The items should be donated before 7pm and the drop-off is near the library entrance,” Mrs Pinyon said. “We should be in for a great night of entertainment, and we’d like to thank all our sponsors for their help this year.” The pageant will start in front of the Renmark Institute on Ral Ral Avenue.

Carols in the Garden CELEBRATE the magic of Christmas this Sunday at Carols in the Garden. A magnificent show capturing the joy of the festive season, Carols in the Garden organiser Dot Fforde is encouraging locals to come to Jarrett Memorial Garden from 7.30pm for a wonderful night where everyone can come together. “It doesn’t happen often where the community comes together as one,” Mrs Fforde. “You get a free concert under the stars and you can buy a program or candle and children can get glowsticks if their parents don’t want them to
have a candle. “Just come along and forget all your troubles.” The night will see young singers Georgette Berry and Jola Kudra perform, Brian Dempsey leading the carols, a performance by Eastwind, the St Joseph’s school choir, Riverland Brass and the Renmark High School band. Mrs Fforde said Carols in the Garden has received the usual voluntary help in its build-up this year, from the show’s committee and the Paringa Football Club. “We’ve really appreciated all the support from everyone,” she said. “It’s been wonderful.”

Cars in the news A PASSION FOR PONTIACS

41 FORD Australia has delivered the news that performance car enthusiasts around the country have been waiting more than 12 months to hear – the highly acclaimed, high performance Focus RS is on its way to Australia. Due to go on sale early in the fourth quarter in extremely limited numbers, the Focus RS is destined to be one of the most eagerly anticipated new models to land in Australia in years. Only 315 models will be available, which will ensure Focus RS ownership in Australia remains the exclusive domain of a truly select group of lucky customers. “Customers, the motoring press, Ford enthusiasts and hot hatch fans have all been constantly asking us about Focus RS and when it might be coming to Australia, so we’re very pleased and incredibly excited to be able to confirm for everyone today that it’s on its way
All eyes on Ford Focus and will be here soon,” Ford Australia president and CEO Marin Burela said. “The buzz and excitement surrounding Focus RS has spread rapidly around the globe since it was introduced in Europe early last year, winning a host of motoring awards and receiving widespread critical acclaim for its outstanding combination of high-performance road car technology and every day Focus practicality. “Now it is poised to conquer the Australian market, setting a new benchmark for hot hatch performance in this country and creating a whole new generation of performance car enthusiasts in the process.” The Focus RS will be offered in just one comprehensively-equipped specification level and limited to three exterior colours – ultimate green, the signature colour of the latest Focus RS; performance blue, the colour of the
original Focus RS; and frozen white, a classic RS colour. Powered by a turbocharged Duratec RS 2.5-litre engine delivering 224 kW of power and peak torque of 440 Nm from just 2300 rpm, the RS is equipped with an arsenal of high-tech, highperformance components to match its exclusivity.
The buzz and excitement surrounding Focus RS has spread rapidly around the globe.
Focus RS is fitted with unique sports suspension, incorporating the patented Ford RevoKnuckle, along with a Quaife automatic torque biasing helical limited slip differential, high-performance braking system and tyre deflation detection system (DDS) for the 19-inch alloy wheels and bespoke Continental tyres. In addition to the largest wheel/tyre combination ever fitted to a Focus, a host of unique Focus world rally car-inspired design elements contribute to the bold exterior of the RS, including: unique body panels, flared wheel arches, custom bonnet design with integrated twin louvres, side skirts, aggressive front and rear bumpers. In fact almost every body panel on the sleek three-door body has been revised or modified. A twin-blade rear spoiler completes the exterior pack-

age, complementing the rear bumper venturi and front bumper splitter to deliver the necessary downforce and balance the overall aerodynamic profile of the vehicle. Other exterior elements include automatic levelling xenon front headlights with washer system and rear parking sensors. On the inside, Focus RS boasts Recaro sports seats in partial leather trim, dual zone climate control air conditioning, rain sensing windscreen wipers, autodimming rear vision mirror and an eight-speaker Sony audio system with six-disc CD player and USB input facility for iPod/MP3 player integration. Bluetooth hands-free with voice control system is also part of the equipment package, along with the Ford key-free system incorporating keyless entry and keyless start via the start/ stop button.

Riverland Vintage Car Club motors on THE Riverland Vintage & Classic Car Club has been seeing great days recently, with memberships and incoming numbers of vehicles skyrocketing in the past year. Club president John English said today’s Christmas general meeting in Kingston-on-Murray will only further satisfy. “We’re having a fairly reasonable, brief meeting, and we have a barbecue for members as well,� he said. The meeting will see a visit from Santa Claus and will start at 7pm. Mr English said the club is happy with the way things are going at present. “The general interest is there from the members,� Mr English. “It’s been very good recently, the biggest influx of new members this year. “The club runs are probably as good as last year, if not better.� The club held a Patron’s Run on Sunday, which according to patron Lawrie Kalisch was a success. “We took the old cars out to the Cobdogla Club for the run and had a nice lunch, followed by a raffle,� Mr Kalisch said. “Overall, it went really well.�

Tavern Talk
Time to give your caravan a safety check By DANNY HANRAHAN ITâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S coming up to the Christmas break and the trailers, campervans and caravans are about to be dusted off and readied for the long awaited break. But beware; you could be towing a deadly weapon waiting to cause mayhem and death on our roads. I am a great fan of the independent caravaners forum at www. caravanersforum.com and the wealth of knowledge that can be found within its many posts. The forum also has an excellent newsletter that can be found at http://www.caravanningnews.com I was absolutely staggered when I read a post that detailed how a couple had loaded up their van and headed off on the trip of a lifetime only to end in disaster on the second day. The post from â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;cabcarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; of Caboolture Caravan Repairs in Queensland reads: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Second day in, as he was reversing into a caravan parking spot, the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; frame greenstick sheared on both sides. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The van hit the deck and the holiday ended very abruptly. Thank God it happened in a van park and not on the Bruce Highway at speed.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;All of you who have vans built over the last eight or so years should have a very good look at the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; frame of your van - check it for cracks or distortion, rust streaks that might indicate a crack forming. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Check if the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; frame has an under truss fitted, if so, is it intact at the connection points?
â&#x2013; DREAM TRIP: Check your caravan properly before you depart, or your dream trip could become a nightmare.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Check for tears in the welds or rust marks within or adjacent to the weld. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Line the van up against a straight edge and check if the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; frame has bent upwards even slightly. Use a string line if you know how to. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think that because your van has been built by a well known or allegedly reputable maker that
you are immune. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The converse is more likely the case and it is very likely your van that will have the problem rather than a custom designed unit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The problems of this type that we are seeing most of are showing up predominantly within the single axle van range, made by well-established builders who are building their product to the absolute minimum standard. Mostly
very pretty units with absolutely no structural substanceâ&#x20AC;?. Following this post the forum went wild with horror stories of poorly made vans. Each member was extremely reluctant to name â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;namesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and they often stated how much they loved their caravan but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to lose their home when sued. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not about to lose my home either but what I can urge you to
do is get down and get dirty. Please check your A-frame for any signs of rust, cracks or anything else that appears out of place. If you are like me, half blind and have the proverbial â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;bad backâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, find time to have a reputable caravan repairer check out your van. And do yourself another favour and check out the caravaners forum.

Brian loves his Pontiacs
â&#x2013; COLLECTION: Barmera man Brian Mason with some of his collection of Pontiacs and (right) a Trans Am like the one which featured in the Smoky and the Bandit movies. Photos: CALLUM TRIFONOFF
By CALLUM TRIFONOFF SINCE 1970, Barmera resident Brian Mason has been a collector of vintage cars like the classic 1963 Pontiac Laurentian, or the convertible 1967 Pontiac Grand Prix, and has provided cars for many school proms. Brian, who owns Masonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fruit and Veg in Barmera with wife Mary, has had a long history of buying and selling vintage cars, with the selling often resulting in purchasing even more. Currently, he has 12 classic cars and, whenever students have been panicking over what to arrive at the prom in, Brian has been the man to rely on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do that (supplying cars for proms) for friends and (relatives), or friends of friends,â&#x20AC;? Brian said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One year, we had a lot to supply, others we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any, but most years we do.â&#x20AC;? Brian said that while a lot of the cars supplied are for Glossop

High School, the Renmark and Loxton proms have featured them as well. Brian also allows his cars to be on display at local events such as the Barmera Christmas Pageant and Loxton Mardi Gras. Since he bought his first car in 1970 (the 1963 Laurentian), Brian said the classy vehicles have gone on to become his children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The good thing is they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talk back to us,â&#x20AC;? he laughed. Brian hopes to get the cars up and running to take on long trips, with the Bay to Birdwood car rally in his sights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to get the cars out,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When they stand around for so long, they deteriorate, so I have to keep them moving. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A trip to Adelaide or Mount Gambier would be ideal for them, to warm them up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I give them approximately 30 kilometre runs around Lake Bonney twice a year.â&#x20AC;?

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON
T The Riverland’s most authoritative sports commentator ...
Leathers hands over the reins ■ I HAD a long conversation with Berri Football Club stalwart Barry Leathers on Saturday night and gathered he had stepped down as Demons’ president at the club’s AGM and had handed over the reins to Brenton Woolston. Being aware of the numerous tasks Barry has carried out in a 40 year association with his club, I thought I would try him with the “only thing you haven’t done is sprig boots” line. But he fired back with “only my own when I played in Victoria”. That’s right, Barry hails from the ‘Big V’. His playing career took in Braybrook ‘in Teddy Whitten Country’, Collingwood in the tough Sunday League, Culgoa near Sea Lake and Rockbank near Bacchus Marsh. His move to Berri came about in interesting circumstances and can be attributed to the ability of the town’s female population as recruiting officers for the Demons. Two of his Melbourne friends (and Demons to be) Colin Dunlop and Brendan Pelly found good reason to stay after visiting Berri in the early 1960s and then on a visit to see them in 1965, Barry met a young lady,
■ RESIGNED: Long time Berri Football Club servant Barry Leathers has resigned as club president. Photo: FILE Rae Ebert “near Wilabalangaloo as I entered the town for the first time” he recalled. Barry and Rae married in 1967 and after living in Melbourne moved to Berri on New Year’s day 1970. He worked at the Berri Cannery for 15 years and has been with GI Dix, Renmark for the past 25. Barry’s latest stint as BFC President covered seven years,
giving him 11 in total after four in the 1980s. He has been on the committee for 25 years, team manager through the grades, spent 23 years as manager of West Adelaide under 15s. In fact, if you were looking for a perfect example of a ‘Jack of all trades’, Barry Leathers is the man. There is not much around the Demon camp that Barry has not had a hand in. Which shows he is not a person to hold grudges. “I applied for a junior coaching position in 1971 and missed out,” he laughed. As far as pulling on a Berri guernsey is concerned, he said “I must have broken some sort of record, I got a clearance but never played”. “Roger Nettle was the coach and I trained for six weeks but my clearance did not come through.” “I did get my name on a B grade team sheet once though,” he adds, “I was 19th man and timekeeper over at Loxton but never got a run.” Testimony to Leathers’ outstanding efforts for the Berri and West Adelaide football clubs, with a definite concentration on juniors, over a long period,
comes from the fact that he received a 5RM – Berri Ltd Steve McFarlane contribution to sport award way back in 2000/01. Obviously he had done plenty up until then but he has not stopped since, including this latest period as a hands on president. Not surprisingly, the club’s centenary celebrations last season are a highlight of his time with the Demons. “We won the Fisher Cup against Barmera-Monash, finished minor premiers, won the flag and then there was the special centenary weekend,” he said. Barry is a life member of the Berri Football Club, the Riverland Football League and got a special buzz recently when he was surprised by having his name amongst eight people listed in a Berri FC Hall of Fame. “I was on two committees involved in the process,” he said, “but I thought we were only putting seven names forward.” Few situations over the years would have had a bigger impact on the Berri Football Club than Barry Leathers move from Melbourne in 1970 – I wonder if they have thanked his wife, Rae for the part she has played in it all?
Karoonda’s Casey named for Scorpions ■ PROMISING young Karoonda cricketer Casey Galbraith has been chosen in a SA team to play in the Women’s Australia Cup in Canberra from December 15 to 21. The squad consists of a mix of talented SACA Scorpions players and a host of new young cricketers who will benefit from travelling with the group and taking part in a challenging national competition. The team’s coach is another former country girl, Andrea McCauley, formerly of Yorke Peninsula, who has played for both SA and Australia. I remember seeing Andrea when she was a teenager and she was watching her two brothers play for an SA Country team that was participating in the annual under 17 SACA competition in Adelaide. Both the young and senior men in the country party were amazed by the confidence and skill the young lady displayed when she joined in training drills, so it is no surprise that her enthusiasm and determination took her to top level. Casey is joined by a number of players from country areas in the 13 strong squad for Canberra. A well known Mid North cricketing name is represented by Cara Fiebig (vice captain), while Kiara Stockley and Sarah Jameson (vice captain), are from Barossa Valley, Jakarra Hill, Rhianna Peate (South East), and Tegan McPharlin also from Mid North. We have written of Casey Galbraith in this column previously when she was setting out on her path through the state junior teams. Casey has impressed officials so far, including in leadership roles, and is playing in the A grade competition in Adelaide.
Less than 2 weeks to go: Options for switching to digital TV & getting the best reception What are the options for switching to digital TV? There are many options for switching to digital TV, so you should be able to find one that suits your needs. You can connect a set top box or digital TV recorder to your existing analog television. You can also upgrade to a television with an integrated digital tuner. If you already have a set top box, digital TV recorder or a digital TV, you should be receiving digital signals, and will not have to do anything. If you have or are planning to get subscription TV, contact a subscription TV provider to check your options to be digital ready. Do I still need to connect a set top box if my TV has a built-in digital tuner? No. Your television has a built-in or integrated digital tuner which will be able to receive the digital TV signals. You don’t need to connect a set top box to a TV with a builtin digital tuner. Do I need to change my antenna? Many existing antennas will be able to receive digital transmissions without any problem, but in some cases may need to be upgraded to receive reliable digital signals. You will need to find out if your current TV antenna is designed for the same frequency band that the digital TV channels in your area are transmitted on. In some cases an antenna will need to be upgraded because the new digital channels are in a new frequency band or because the antenna is older or not in good condition. You should also ensure your antenna is pointed in the right direction for your local digital TV services. You should
consult an endorsed antenna installer for advice on the best antenna installation for your needs. I can’t receive all the new digital channels that is available in my area. What should I do? Not all digital TV receivers or set top boxes automatically detect the arrival of a new digital TV channel. As a result, some receivers will require a ‘re-tune’ or ‘re-scan’ every time a new channel is launched. Manual re-tuning of digital services is usually done through the menu button on the remote control of a digital television or set top box. Usually the option of re-tuning is available in the ‘set-up’ menu. Once you have accessed this menu you should choose 'rescan', 'store channels', 'retune' or 'replace' and allow the set to automatically identify digital services. A re-tune will identify and remember all the digital services that a television is able to receive. What causes the picture to break up or pixellate? There are a number of factors that can affect digital TV reception, including weak or excessive signal strength; weather conditions; signal obstructions such as local terrain, trees or buildings; or ‘impulse interference’ caused by domestic appliances, light switches or hair dryers. Straightforward solutions can include checking your antenna leads, connectors and cables to make sure they are properly connected and in good working order. A Digital Advisor at your local retail store can help with advice on the best equipment, while an endorsed antenna installer may also be able to advise you on improving your digital TV reception.
■ IN ACTION: Renmark RSL bowler John Van der Wyst sends one down at the NSW Open. Photo: JANE WILSON
Bowlers in top drawer battle ■ RENMARK RSL pair John Van der Wyst and Robert ‘Dixie’ Lee returned from Wagga Wagga in the early hours of last Saturday morning after taking part in the NSW Open Bowls Championships. Along with the Australian and Queensland Open events, this is one of the three major competitions conducted by Bowls Australia and attracts bowlers of world class. Speaking to Dixie, he expected to find the competition top drawer, but admits to being blown away by the standard and organisation of the event. He was also amazed at the number of young bowlers involved, “I reckon 50 per cent of the competitors were under 21,” he said, “and I may be being conservative in that”. A squad from the NSW Institute of Sport attended,
all youngsters. “The group was amazing, confident, classy and after each game they could be seen sitting down with their coaches and analysing their performance,” said Dixie. Titles up for grabs were singles, pairs, and triples for both men and women, and in each of the competitions the qualifying events were played in groups of four. The qualifiers were played in Melbourne, Sydney and Wagga Wagga. Van der Wyst played in the singles and joined a top Wagga Wagga bowler, Dennis Own in the pairs, Lee partnered an old NSW mate David Badger and in the triples, it was the two Renmark RSL fellows plus Badger. A couple of examples of the class of contests were, Lindsay Armitage, one of the leading woman bowl-
ers in the world, attempting to qualify for the singles but finished bottom in her four, and Mark Jacobsen, a recent winner of the Queensland open singles. As far as the results for our Riverland duo, the highlight was their performance in the triples. Van der Wyst, Lee and Badger went within a whisker of reaching the final 32 rinks. In the last of their three games in their four, they played the whizz kid group skippered by Trent Healy (22 years), with the winner to qualify for the finals. “We finished up all square and went to a three end tiebreaker,” Dixie said. “After that we were still even so another end was necessary but we blew that and missed out on a place amongst the last 32”.

New contract for star cyclist ■ FORMER Loxton youngster, Matthew Benson has just signed a contract with a new cycling team with the involvement to see him compete around Australia and in the USA in 2011. Matt only recently returned from a fullon six months cycling trip to France where he competed in upwards of 60 races. “It was very hard, Europe just live and breathes cycling so I was racing three or four times
a week,” he said. Events took him all over France from his base in Morteau near the Switzerland border. He also raced in Switzerland and Germany. I asked him how he had benefitted from the tour. “Improvement overall, better fitness and much more experience,” he said. While he was in Europe he caught up with his good friend, young Australian representative, Jack Bobridge.
The Australian cycling team was at a training camp prior to the Commonwealth Games in India. Matt is thrilled at the success of his mate at the games and says he has taken inspiration out of Bobridge’s medal haul. After all, it is not all that long ago that both young men had similar performances in our tour of the Riverland race. While in France, Matt rates a win amongst a class field of 150 riders in a one day hilltop finish
race as his best result. Since being back in Australia, he has done some work with the SA Institute of Sport, sharing some of his newly gained knowledge and experience with novice cyclists. He has also taken a rest after his strenuous trip overseas but showed he had not lost any form when, after only a week’s training, he finished 15th in a field of over 200 riders in the prestigious Melbourne to Warrnambool race.
In the year ahead, Matthew, with his new team and SASI scholarship, is concentrating completely on his cycling career. As we said after he created history in taking out the 5RM – Berri Resort Hotel Riverland Sportsperson of the Year and Beaurepaires Junior Sports Star award double for 2007-08, Matthew Benson is a pleasant but determined young man with ambition and goals Nothing has changed.

Loxton’s Mathew Wilson scored an outstanding victory and has put himself under notice of Australian selectors. Wilson defeated NSW’s Keith Hammond, a Golden Gloves champion and silver medallist at the 2009 Australian Championships. It was a 52 kg division bout and Wilson won on points 8-5. The Riverland boxer started strongly but after the referee ruled an early slip as a knock down, he seemed to lift even more notches with his combination punching putting Hammond on the back foot. Eleven year old Mildura athlete Liam Bobbin was involved in his fifth bout in the 42 kg division against Jeremy Gibson (NSW) and, although he again showed exceptional poise and skill for one so young, a slow opening cost him the fight on points. Loxton’s Ryan Goodes fought a crowd pleasing exhibition fight against Ben Ryan (NSW) after his original opponent withdrew. Boxers from the Loxton Gym will be in Millicent this Saturday for their final tournament for 2010.

■ LIFE BALL: The new sport of life ball has really taken off among the Renmark community but more players are being urged to join. Photo: FILE
Having the time of their life ■ THE co-ordinator of the Renmark Ravers Life Ball Group, Trish McAuliffe has contacted me to say that following our article on the new sport recently, there has been an influx of new players with more people also showing an interest in joining. This is a game popular amongst the elderly (the oldest participant is 94), so anyone interested in
joining for some low stress exercise but still a surprisingly competitive environment, should contact Trish (8586 5694). She is looking at forming two further teams. Also, in particular, more men are invited to join champion Renmark RSL lawn bowler John Van der Wyst, who is in danger of being dubbed the ‘Lone Ranger’ by his mates.
Sessions are now at the preferred venue, The Renmark Tintra Tennis Club, or in cases of poor weather, the Renmark Recreation Centre (it doesn’t hurt so much to fall on grass) at 9am on Fridays. And according to Trish, there is another real benefit in being involved, the therapy that a lot of fun and laughter provides.
■ NINE Berri rowers; Alison Martin, Sue Skinner, Emma Walter, Monique Paschke, Jodie Nourse, Paul Othams, Greg Reeks, Paul Tucker and Andrew Vowles will compete; at their club’s Riverland Regatta this weekend. The group will be involved in women’s or men’s quads, double and single sculls and have been training hard for the event. Up to 500 athletes, plus support crews, usually attend these regattas and this year there will be visitors from across Country SA, Adelaide and a party of 20 from Scotch
Sports thoughts...
College in WA. Renmark’s Tom Sullivan, who was earlier this year a member of the Adelaide University crew that won the Trans Tasman Trophy in New Zealand and who also took out a silver medal at the national titles in March, will compete, as will Loxton North’s Alexander Hill, one of eight chosen to attend an Australian Institute of Sports training camp. Another highlight will be the appearance of Olympian James McRae who won a bronze medal in the recent World Championships in NZ.

Joe Darling: A real hero with a mo THE end has come for Movember, with the facial fuzz grown over the past month set to be erased from men’s faces like a bristly, bad memory. Australian sport has always had a wonderful array of performers with moustaches, right from the earliest days of Test cricket, when Fred ‘The Demon’ Spofforth was a leading light. In the past 50 years we’ve had famous moustachioed stars such as tennis player John Newcombe, footballer Ron Barrasi and a whole barbershop of cricketers, such as Rod Marsh, David Boon, Dennis Lillee and Allan Border being notable exponents. Then, of course, there was Merv Hughes, who not only had a
mo’ but also a mullet. In the 1986/87 series, the last won by the English in Australia, the villainous looking Hughes famously took on the great allrounder Ian Botham in cricket’s Battle of the Taches. Botham won the day, scoring the last Test century of his illustrious career at the Gabba, but I’m still not sure who won the battle of the mullet and moustach. Locally, Waikerie football identity Jeff Gay is a well known wearer of the moustache, his is a very worthy handlebar. With the Adelaide Test starting tomorrow, it’s worth a look at some South Australian cricketers who’ve had a mo’. Ian Chappell, David
Hookes and Wayne Phillips sported them nobly and even Don Bradman (in the 1970s) wore a strangely unsuitable moustache. Given the Don’s deity like status, it’s small wonder all the photos of the great man wearing a mo’ haven’t been collected and
burnt, so as to expunge his effort from the collective memory. But, in honour of the Ashes it is worth looking back to an Australian captain, only really remembered by cricket tragics, who had a thick walrus like facial accessory and recall his wonderful achievements. Glen Osmond born Joe Darling (1870-1946) was first picked for SA at 19 years of age and scored his maiden first class hundred the following year against Andrew Stoddart’s touring English team. By the 1894-95 season, Darling (pictured) had made his Test debut, achieving a first ball duck in his opening innings. Putting that unfortunate start
behind him, Gregory went on to score three centuries in a 34 test career in which he was captain 21 times. Darling was more than just a cricketer, winning a league football premiership with Norwood, before moving to Tasmania where he ran a sheep station and also became a member of Tasmanian Legislative Council. Darling died in Tasmania on January 2, 1946 (aged 75). Darling clearly comes from a time when men were men, and moustaches were not just a fashion accoutrement. Now, the question must be asked, should I keep my own ginger flecked moustache. The wife’s answer is a resounding “no”.

Kruger named RFL chief ■ From Page 52 RFL chairman Neil Martinson said while he was disappointed with the number of applications, the appointment of Kruger to the CEO position is the perfect choice. “Wendy’s been doing the permit system for us and she’s been assisting Mick in lots of other aspects of the RFL,” he said. “She’s had a good grounding with Mick and Mick’s put her in the loop of the things that are necessary. “It will be (an easy transition).” The RFL is seeking a new commissioner following Kruger’s appointment to the CEO position. Meanwhile, the RFL has released a proposed 2011 draw, which sees teams in the Independent competition playing each other twice. Martinson said if the teams adopt the proposed changes, the Independent football season will be longer than in previous years. “A couple of the clubs have indicated that they’d like the Independents to play each other twice, so that obviously lengthens the season,” he said. “We’ve incorporated that into the draw, so it will be up to the other clubs to sort it out at the annual general meeting (this month). “I haven’t heard any at this stage who don’t want it but they (the teams) will obviously have a good discussion about that. “We’ve put on an amendment to the constitution to incorporate Blanchetown/Swan Reach into the constitution, so we will see how that pans out at the AGM as well.” Martinson said the extra rounds will not see the Independent competition and RFL grand finals clash. “It will finish up a week earlier as the RFL clubs will play their grand finals a week later than the Independents,” he said. “The finishing time (for Independents) is the same but they will be starting a little bit earlier, that is the proposal.” With a five day Easter and Anzac Day weekend complicating next year’s draw, Martinson said there are several options with the traditional Anzac Day clash to possibly be played on a Sunday.

Callum’s ace a good sign By CALLUM TRIFONOFF TEEING off in the golf pennant semi-finals this Saturday, Callum Benda will be hoping to carry his recent form into the big match-up. At a recent Renmark Golf and Country Club twilight competition, while playing with a couple of friends, Benda did something few people his age ever get to; he hit a hole in one on the club’s par three ninth hole. It is the first time Benda had ever achieved such a feat, never even coming close before. “When I hit it and it landed about a foot and a half from the hole, we were so far away we couldn’t quite see it, but we thought ‘is that in?’” Benda said. “We didn’t start celebrating too soon but when we realised it was in, we just went nuts.” On a perfect day with no breeze, Benda hit the ball into the hole from approximately 130 metres away. “I’ve been playing golf on and off for about seven years and I’ve been a member of Renmark for so long and I’ve not come close,”
Renmark Golf Club hole in one facts ■ 1997 was a busy year in the ace club, with J. Turnbull, D.J Wilson, B. Paige, W.M Duguid and K.A Wilkinson all draining the hole from the tee. ■ Women’s member K.A Wilkinson is a genuine ace, hitting four holes in one, including two in 1991. Her others occurred in 1992 and 1997.

he said. “It’s amazing because you talk to so many pros and they say they haven’t even done it (hit a hole in one), so it’s a great feeling.” A hockey player in the winter (and carpenter by trade), Benda said the swing involved in that sport, helps him in golf. “It gives it a bit of slice,” he said.
■ ON YOUR MARKS: Sharlyn Burdon, 11, of Berri and Shelby Meredith, 11, of Loxton, at the start of 50 metre backstroke time only event at the Riverland Swimming Association’s first interclub carnival last week.
“It definitely helps with handeye co-ordination.” Incidentally, Benda’s ace is the second on the ninth hole at Renmark this year, with local lawyer Malcolm Daws also knocking one in. It continues an interesting trend that, in 2008, saw B. Spratting and R. Knight (both hole 15) and in 2005 saw M.O. Denti and R.J. Ormsby (hole 11) score aces. This weekend however, Benda’s thoughts will be elsewhere; hoping to help Renmark defeat
■ Brenton ‘Rock’ Paige has scored three - 1996, 1997 and 2000. ■ In a quirk of fate, the past four years in which a hole in one has been scored at Renmark has seen it occur twice on the same hole each time (see story for the ace golfers involved).
Barmera in the C grade pennant semi-final at Renmark. “Hopefully home turf will help us in the end,” he said. Renmark has already reached Sunday’s A, B and D grade grand finals. Waikerie awaits the winner of the C grade grand final. Semi-finals - A grade: Barmera v Waikerie; B grade: Waikerie v Barmera; C grade: Renmark v Barmera; D grade: Waikerie v Barmera.
Bowls zone finals this weekend AFTER local success at the lawn bowls state pairs zone finals last Sunday, attention will be turned to this weekend’s SA State Singles Zone Finals. Renmark’s Bill Dopson and Christos Karantonis won the pairs finals last week, and the Riverland has a strong contingent of players in the eight drawn sections this week, with 30 out of the 32 scheduled to take part in the singles zone finals, being from Berri, Renmark RSL, Loxton, Waikerie, Barmera and Monash. Lyndoch has the other two representatives. Loxton’s Neville Jenke and Trevor Schulz are two of the representatives in section one, along with Berri’s Andrew Hill and Renmark RSL’s Malcolm Inglis. Sections one to six will be played at Loxton while sections seven and eight will be played at the Loxton RSL. Jenke and Schulz, along with the rest of Loxton’s representatives, may do well on home turf but do not rule out Hill and Inglis who have both bowled exceptionally well this season. The tournament will get under way at 9am this Sunday.

Finals time
New local footy CEO named:
WENDY IS FOOTBALL’S FIRST LADY
RENMARK golfer Callum Benda may have achieved the ultimate in his sport recently. However, that is the last thing on his mind as he and other golfers across the region prepare for pennant finals this weekend. He will be hoping his C grade team can make it into the grand final, joining three other Renmark teams in Sunday’s big pennants finale. ■ Full story, Page 44 ■ ACE: Renmark golfer Callum Benda revisits the scene of his recent hole in one triumph, the ninth hole at Renmark.

New contract
Issue No. 155
By BRAD PERRY AS one of the Riverland Football League’s stalwarts steps down, another familiar face takes over, with commissioner Wendy Kruger appointed chief executive officer of the local league for the 2011 season. Kruger, who has been involved with the RFL for
almost 15 years, admits she has big shoes to fill as Mick Beech’s replacement but is looking forward to the challenge of being football’s first lady. “I’m very excited,” she said. “It’s not a job I would put in for if I knew nothing about it.” After serving as RFL com-
missioner for the past four seasons, Kruger has decided to fulfil a new role in a game she adores. “I just love footy full stop and friendships you make will never be forgotten,” she said. “I do absolutely love it (local footy).” ■ Continued Page 44
