Fury over festival debt Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au UP to 15 small businesses may be owed as much as $70,000 in the wake of this year’s Western Port Festival, held at Hastings in February. The largest creditor, Simon Sokolich, of Red Hill Water Carriers, says he is $20,000 out of pocket after erecting and filling 1.5 kilometres of water barriers the night before the festival held over the 22-24 February weekend. He says he provided a similar, but smaller,

service to the festival the previous year and was paid. Mr Sokolich said he had been assured before this year’s festival that he “would be paid upon completion of the festival and receipt of his invoices”. This did not happen and, by last Friday, he remained unpaid despite repeated requests. Organisers of the $170,000 festival acknowledge receiving his invoices, with event manager Yvens De Camargo casting doubt on their ability to pay in a letter dated Thursday 23 May: “Our funds come from applying for

local grants, sponsorship and donations. “Unfortunately, this year we had a number of issues in consolidating all our funds … and as a result there are a few invoices [that] cannot be paid. We are trying to get access to … funds but, at this stage, there is [no] foreseeable timeframe.” Mr De Camargo did not return calls from The News. “We worked all through the night to erect the barriers which I had to pay for as well as pay four staff and trucks – it was a big job,” Mr Sokolich, who bought the business 18 months ago,

val’s finances, but was hoping to raise $200,000 through crowd funding and local businesses. Days later just $1600 had been raised – including $1000 from the Save Westernport Group. Former Western Port Festival committee president Jill Underwood said she had “nothing to do with the financials” over her 12-18 months on the volunteer committee. “I have no idea how many small businesses are owed money because I resigned from the committee mid-last year,” she said.

Reefs plan to improve bay’s fish stocks ARTIFICIAL reefs could be placed in the bay off the Quarantine Station at Point Nepean and off Rye or Blairgowrie under a strategy to boost fishing stocks. The Point Nepean reef would be ideal for yellowtail kingfish and the Rye or Blairgowrie reef would suit anglers targeting species such as slimy mackerel and yellow tail scad – the perfect live bait for yellow tail kingfish. Nepean MP Chris Brayne joined forces with Futurefish Foundation director David Kramer last week to workshop ideas for the reefs to enhance recreational fishing. Their plans include working alongside marine scientists and bay managers in the lead-up with the pair conceding “there is a lot of planning and approval required before the reefs would be installed”. Mr Brayne said it was the Mornington Peninsula’s “turn” for reefs after Premier Daniel Andrews committed before last year’s state election to installing $2.5 million of new reefs in Port Phillip. “During the past 10 years, successive Victorian Labor governments have installed reefs off Frankston, Seaford, Chelsea, Aspendale, Altona, Portarlington, Geelong and St Kilda,” Mr Brayne said. “Most of these reefs have enhanced recreational fishing for snapper after decades of scallop dredging destroyed the natural habitat in the bay. Now that great snapper fishing has returned it’s time to boost recreational fishing opportunities on the peninsula using artificial reefs.” He and Mr Kramer went boating off Rye last week to assess ideal sites – especially a reef to attract kingfish. “Yellowtail kingfish have made a remarkable return to Port Phillip, particularly in The Rip, however the most popular place to

fish for them is right in the middle of the shipping channel,” Mr Kramer said. “A reef off the Quarantine Station at Point Nepean would provide an alternate habitat for kingfish to congregate outside of the shipping channel. “This would be safer for anglers and help

avoid the issue of hundreds of boats drifting in the shipping channel in search of the prized yellowtail kingfish having to move out of the way of passing ships.” Mr Brayne said the reefs could possibly be installed during the winter of 2020 and be fishable in the summer of that year.

“With boat ramps fees set to be scrapped on the peninsula before next season, artificial reefs on the drawing board and all commercial netting in Port Phillip ceasing in 2022, the peninsula fishing opportunities are set to be boom in years to come.” Stephen Taylor

Permit row grounds airfield Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE future operation of the Tyabb airfield is up in the air following a stop work order issued by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council. The shock directive, sent on Monday 3 June, came after the shire was unable to find permits subsequent to 1965 when the 50-year-old club was given the right to operate. Tyabb Aero Club president Jack Vevers said on Friday the shire’s director of planning [David Bergin] “has obviously made a horrible mistake that has put well over 100 jobs at immediate risk”. “We look forward to the council’s CEO [John Baker] resolving this matter as soon as possible.” Mr Vevers said the aero club was

seeking legal advice and had approached small business, innovation and trade minister Adem Somyurek to help find a resolution to an “administrative issue … that we are directing our attention to resolve”. The mayor Cr David Gill told The News on Friday afternoon that the club “certainly seems to have some influence”, with departmental heads and ministers contacting shire officers to “see what’s going on”. “They’ve never before been that interested in anything we do,” Cr Gill said. It is believed the airfield’s original Shire of Hastings permit still applies. That permit allowed take-offs and landings of aircraft of less than 4500lbs; no flying during the 9.30-10.30am “holy hour”; no upsetting primary producers; and, not building a secondary airstrip or enlarging or extending the [existing]

north-south airstrip “without the approval of the minister”. The missing 1972 permit relating to the airfield’s current operations is at the core of the dispute. It affects the club’s right to use the land as an airport or airfield, conduct a flying school, act as a transport terminal, place of assembly, major sport or recreation facility, and major events facility, such as the air show. The order also affects the use of the east-west runway. This latest salvo from the shire has made the row over flying during “holy hour” look inconsequential (“Aero club baulks at flying hours cut” The News 22/5/19). “We wish to continue working closely and cohesively with our council for the common goal of supporting the local community as a whole, and are focusing our attention on a specific issue that entangles one particular de-

partment involving their abrupt and unnecessary actions,” Mr Vevers said. “The planning department’s response to force a resolution could impact on a significant number of jobs and wellbeing of the community that we are addressing hastily. “We believe strongly in unity in our community and will continue to work cohesively with all stakeholders and not represent any division nor jeopardise the reputation and operations of our local government due to any oversight or improper rulings made by a single representative.” In April, a notice-of-motion moved by Cr Julie Morris and adopted unanimously “intended to recognise the urgent need to provide clarity around the current and future operation of the Tyabb Airfield”. Seconded by Cr Hugh Fraser, the motion saw council appointing a

Queen’s Counsel and junior to conduct a “full legal review, in order to provide clear information … regarding the conditions of all current planning permits currently applying to the Tyabb Airfield”. The legal report is to be delivered to council by 30 June. The motion also provided for officer briefings to council each quarter on the preparation of the Tyabb Airfield master plan and aircraft noise management plan, and before the end of December on all aspects of the Tyabb Airfield precinct plan (particularly the role of the Tyabb Airfield Community Reference Group). Councillors also directed CEO John Baker “provide to council a document consolidating into one document the conditions of all current planning permits that … apply to the Tyabb Airfield”.

Ghost sighting leads to Rolls Royce life By Fred Wild EWART Melbourne Brindle saw his first Rolls Royce Silver Ghost on Dromana Esplanade on a summer afternoon in 1912 — a sighting that led the eight-year-old to a career that would make him America’s most celebrated illustrator of the famous cars. On May 17 the Twenty Silver Ghosts gallery in the Rolls Royce Foundation’s museum in Mechanicsburg, Philadelphia, US had its official opening. The purpose built gallery features 26 of Brindle’s original paintings the basis for the 1971 book, “Twenty Silver Ghosts”. The paintings detail some of the most famous pre-World War I cars. The gallery houses the full collection with artist’s renderings, all donated to the foundation in 2015 by Friendly’s Ice Cream founder S Prestley Blake, then aged 101. Conservators spent many hours restoring the paintings in readiness for the display. Prestley Blake was a close friend of Melbourne Brindle who died in 1993 and, like the artist, an avid Rolls Royce collector. The foundation’s CEO Mark Lizewskie said the occasion also marked the 115th anniversary of Charles Rolls and Henry Royce’s meeting for the first time in Manchester, UK. “The marque they agreed to form that day continues to set global standards for innovation and excellence, and uphold their legacy as the originators of the best car in the world,” Mr Lizewskie said.

THE work of illustrator Ewart Melbourne Brindle, pictured on the right with S Prestley Blake, now forms the basis of a gallery at the Rolls Royce Foundation’s museum in the United States. Pictures: Supplied

“Attendees who were not aware of the paintings were enthralled with the attention to detail Brindle captured within his subjects.” Brindle’s parents Arthur and Grace Brindle moved from Melbourne to

Dromana in 1905 when Ewart was six-months old. Arthur Brindle, an artist, tried his hand at farming in Dromana but chose to sail to San Francisco to work on the Panama Pacific Exposition in

Melbourne Brindle, who dropped the Ewart from his name in the US, inherited his father’s artistic talent and had a successful career as an illustrator. He was best known for his advertisements for motor vehicles, including Packard, Buick and Cadillac. He produced War Bond advertisements during World War II and designed US postage stamps. The book Twenty Silver Ghosts measures 47cm x 39cm. A smaller version was printed in 1978 and copies of both can still be found online. Some of the paintings feature in Brindle’s An Illustrators Passion available from the Dromana and District Historical Society’s museum in Dromana. His painting of the Weeroona plying Port Phillip Bay hangs in Dromana State School while his magnificent Diggers Hat on Landing hangs in the Peninsula Club. Attendees for the opening soiree in (at $80 a person) were able to tour the Roll Royce Foundation’s gallery, experience the collection of “Proper motor cars” and enjoy a Britishthemed menu. CEO Mark Lizewskie said the “proper motor car mixer” was such a success it would become an annual event.

1914. The Brindle children attended Dromana State School. War intervened and it wasn’t until war’s end that Grace and her seven children were able to reunite with him.

Fund four million reasons to cheer AFTER 60 years of service – and donating more than $4 million – members of the Southern Peninsula Community Fund (SPCF) have good reason to celebrate. Volunteer David Wills said Rosebud Rotary Club established the fund in 1959 to support families, elderly and cancer patients. In 1971 the fund expanded its operations to become the first meals on wheels service on the Mornington Peninsula. In 1975 it bought a shop and launched the Rye Opportunity Shop at 2141 Point Nepean Road,

which has been a mainstay of financial support for those needing help in the community. In 1997, when the shires of Flinders, Hastings and Mornington amalgamated to form the Mornington Peninsula Shire, the shire took over the meals on wheels service with the SPCF continuing to provide financial assistance. Now, the fund focuses on providing money to charitable and youth organisations, including Rosebud Hospital, emergency services, schools, aged and disadvantaged services, and in advancing youth programs on the

southern peninsula. It distributes more than $200,000 a year and during its lifetime has donated more than $4 million. Volunteers run the shop Monday to Saturday, with extended hours during holiday season. “All the volunteers are proud of the fact that more than 90 per cent of all funds raised are donated back to the local community,” Mr Wills said. Prospective volunteers can call into the shop, which accepts donations of saleable items.

More protection for ‘unique’ swamp Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au NEW boundaries have been adopted for the Tootgarook Wetlands, along with protective buffer zones and an environmental significance overlay. The wetland - home to 160 species of permanent and migratory birds and 248 plant species - is the largest shallow freshwater marsh in the Port Phillip and western Port region. The latest defined wetland area sits between Truemans Road in the west, Boneo Road to the east, and extends north from a narrow point near Maxwell and Limestone roads in the south to Gannett Avenue and The Village Glen on the outskirts of Capel Sound. More than 5000 years ago the wetland was a shallow inlet, part what has become Port Phillip, but now sits about 1.8 metres above sea level. Mornington Peninsula Shire adopted the new boundaries at its Monday 3 June Planning Services Committee meeting after receiving public comment and holding meetings earlier this year to explain findings outlined in the final Extent of Tootgarook Wetland, Mornington Peninsula, Victoria (Wetland Report). The scientific basis for the wetland planning controls and came from environmental consulting firm Biosis, which also hired a hydrologist “to provide insights from a hydrological perspective”. The Biosis report said 64 per cent of the original Tootgarook swamp remains, which is much more than other major swamps in the region,

NEW boundaries have been drawn for the Tootgarook Wetlands which encompass a variety of topographies and vegetation. Pictures: Yanni such as Kooweerup (one per cent), Carrum (five per cent) and the closest, Kangerong (five per cent). Now fragmented into 84 parts and spread across 322 hectares with a 62-kilometre perimeter, the wetland has about 20 “islands” which “add ecologic and landscape complexity … making it unique”, the Biosis report stated.

The identified wetlands and buffers extend over roads and private properties and may impact on the design of the Mornington Peninsula Freeway if it is extended along an existing “alignment” which is subject to a public acquisition overlay.

Police on the nose at Mornington year occur when train drivers are forced to brake unexpectedly or take other actions to avoid trespassers on the lines. Police have urged members of the public to ensure they stay safe around train stations and level crossings, and don’t engage in dangerous behaviour.

Ute driver sought THE driver of a Ford ute, pictured, involved in an incident on High Street, Hastings, 6.30pm, Monday 20 May, is being sought by police. It is believed the driver sideswiped a parked car and then sped off along King Street. The silver ute with aluminium tray was loaded

RAW sewage escaping into the foyer forced Mornington Police Station to close last week. Passers-by said toilet paper and excrement were flowing out from under the doors and the odour from unsanitary water on the footpath was “very strong”, 4.30pm, Monday 3 June. Workers in the side street near the old cells pumped out blocked pipes and even a Frankston SES crew turned up to lend a hand. Officer-in-charge Senior Sergeant Paul Edwards said the problem was caused by heavy rain and a blocked pipe – for the second time in a decade. He said sewage flowing downhill in pipes under Main Street backed up at the station, its lowest point, and overflowed. “About five centimetres of contaminated water flowed past the sergeant’s office and was pumped out by South East Water,” he said. “We were able to move things out of the way

Safety Beach fire POLICE are treating as suspicious a fire which destroyed a two-storey house at Safety Beach, early Monday 3 June. The Balmoral Avenue house, below, was engulfed by fire when CFA crews from Dromana, Rosebud and Mt Martha arrived, 1.15am. Minor fire damage was caused to neighbouring houses. The house was supposedly unoccupied leading police to suspect that squatters may have been responsible.

Fasting serves up welcome Fears over future break for understanding of festival’s debts By Barry Morris IN a continuing effort to break down barriers and demystify misconceptions about the Islamic faith, the Langwarrin-based invited more than 270 people to dinner. The meal, called iftar, is how Muslims end their day of the fasting during Ramadan. Guests from different faiths and professional backgrounds were invited to dine with the Muslims who took the opportunity to explain the benefits of fasting and to increase mutual understanding and knowledge. Because of a lack of parking at the Baitul Salam Mosque in Leisureland Drive, Langwarrin the meal was served at a community centre at Pakenham. After acknowledging the traditional owners of the land, the community’s external affairs representative Tariq Butt welcomed guests. After concluding prayers, there was azan (call for prayers) to mark the breaking of the fast. Guests and their hosts shared a light meal of dates and water, a tradition dating back to the time of the prophet Muhammad (PBUH) more than 1400 years ago. Fresh fruits, such as bananas, mandarins and grapes, were also served. This was followed by a dinner of Pakistani and Middle Eastern food, including mixed vegetables, lentils, chicken curry, palao (rice) and naan and roti (bread).

SOCIAL worker Andrew R McNabb with Inman Ahmad Nadeem at the daily fast-ending iftar meal.

Desserts were traditional sweets, jalebi and gulab jamin. Guest speakers were Iman Ahmad Nadeem of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Gippsland president Aaron Skipwith, Victorian Buddhist Council member Dinesh Weerakkody, Federal Assistant Multicultural Affairs Minister and MP for La Trobe Jason Wood and Liberal MP for Gembrook Brad Battin.

The speakers suggested fasting was good for health, humility, self-discipline and bringing followers closer to God and that interfaith dialogue taught respect for other human beings and promoted mutual understanding. Casey councillor Damien Rosario and his wife Renee, Cr Rex Flannery, Cardinia Interfaith members Diana Cousens and Alice Watson and members of the Sri Lankan, Sikh and Hindu community also attended.

Continued from Page 1 “I went onto it to help because someone else had left. I tried to do something of benefit to the shire before resigning due to health reasons; I never had any control of the finances,” Ms Underwood said. The committee’s current treasurer Terry Cochrane, of a Mornington financial services company, referred The News to the new president Courtney Dayton-Banks, owner of a Hasting dance company. Neither was involved in the running of the 2019 festival. Ms Dayton-Banks said she found taking over as festival committee president in March a “big mess to walk into” and is working to get things on a more business-like footing. “We know what is owed and to whom and we are trying to get everyone paid, but there is a lot to go through.” Ms Dayton-Banks said minutes of a post-festival committee meeting showed Ms Underwood officially resigned on 12 March and Mr De Camargo resigned as acting-treasurer the same day. She said his resignation as event manager was not accepted by the committee. Cr Kate Roper, who helped arrange a Mornington Peninsula Shire Council grant of almost $60,000 to kick-start this year’s festival, said she was “staggered to hear of the debts”. “It was not a council event, yet we did a lot of work to get it up and running,” she said. “Because it was the 50th anniversary

we wanted to make it special. I attended a committee meeting with [festival patron and Hastings MP] Neale Burgess on 15 December with 15 people and everything seemed to be going well – it was all positive,” she said. “Yvens [De Camargo] told us they would break even or be a little bit in debt. “All along we were doing checks. We were waiting on budgets and other potential sponsors. I asked what money had been knocked back and Yvens told me $10,000. He said they had a $50,000 sponsorship coming from Esso.” Cr Roper said concerns over management of the festival prompted the shire to withhold $40,000 of the grant until the eve of the festival. “Yvens told me four days before that he was going to walk away … and then three days before we found out that the event didn’t even have a permit,” Cr Roper said. As the event drew near, the shire and other potential sponsors urgently sought budget details. “Esso didn’t see a budget and neither did we,” Cr Roper said. “I got a 10-line note which I said was not satisfactory … and yet we were trying to make [the event] special because it was the 50th anniversary.” Cr Roper said the committee was afterwards able to account for all of the contributed ratepayers’ money. “It turns out we gave them most of what they had,” she said.

Congratulations to the latest trainees at Village Glen Aged Care Residences IF you want to work in aged care, wouldn’t it be fantastic to get the qualification, the training and a job all in one place? At Village Glen, you can. Village Glen Aged Care Residences offers a unique training program in partnership with the Chisholm Institute. Built in 2014, Village Glen has state-of-the-art training facilities. In 2015 they partnered with Chisholm, and three times a year, trainees qualify for a Certificate 3 in Individual Support at Village Glen. The latest trainees, ‘Group 7’, completed their course in April and will be permanently employed at Village Glen. At a graduation ceremony in May, the trainees were awarded their certificates by Chisholm Institute and officially became qualified PCAs. One graduate, Paige Peirce was nominated by Chisholm for “Trainee of the Year”, and it is with much excitement that we announce she has been invited to the Awards Night as a finalist. When asked about her achievement Paige said, “if it hadn’t been for this course, I would have been lost, being able to study and work in one place was a huge lifesaver for me”. The PCA traineeship is a 7-month program where students attend classes with a Chisholm teacher in Village Glen’s training room. Theory days are supported by hands on work days, whereby the trainees are designated an instructor who is one of the experienced PCAs working at Village Glen, some of whom have come through the trainee program themselves. The buddy provides

Cats deserve humane treatment, but are killers While I agree that cats can mean a great deal to people and should be treated humanely, I do not see that allowing them to roam is in their best interests (“Cat trapping can lead to deaths of pets” Letters 5/6/19). Many are bitten by other cats or dogs, or are hit by cars. It is certainly not in the interests of wildlife such as birds, ringtail possums, skinks, geckos, frogs, antechinus, a number of which I have found, obviously killed by cats, in my garden over time. Birds are particularly vulnerable at night, as most are unable to see while cats have night vision and are highly able climbers. So many cat owners have ignored the restrictions for so long despite educational efforts, and cats do so much damage to wildlife that, in my view, Mornington Peninsula Shire is well justified in making it easier to remove them. It is quite possible to contain cats in wirenetting enclosures which allow them to exercise and enjoy the sunshine without harming other creatures or themselves. It is not the fault of the cats, it is their owners who are culpable for the demise of so much of our wildlife. Jan Dwyer, Rosebud

Cat traps ‘appalling’ I find it appalling that Mornington Peninsula Shire can allow cats to be caught in traps, it is sickening (“Traps for straying cats” The News 28/5/19). And thank you to Rosy Fischer. Good on you. We are all on your side. Thank you (“Cat trapping can lead to deaths of pets” Letters 5/6/19). It is so disgusting for anyone to even think of this cruelty. We have a 24-hour curfew where we are not allowed to let cats out and, not only that, we have to have them micro-chipped and pay the shire to have cats registered. If a cat gets out by accident, the shire not only charges a fortune to get them out of the pound (if they haven’t been gassed in the meantime). What a money hungry bunch of councillors that we have. To do this is totally wrong. I would like to know why we have to register a cat in the first place? What are we paying for? It’s a joke and a disgrace. Janet Landrigan, Rosebud

Unwanted cats Rosy Fischer is concerned about cats belonging to neighbours and others being trapped by people who do not want cats on their property (“Cat trapping can lead to deaths of pets” Letters 5/6/19). Like some cat owners, she does not seem to be as concerned about residents who do not want cats on their property, stalking birds, using the backyard as a toilet, fighting and doing whatever else cats do. The bottom line is, cats will not need to be trapped by unhappy residents if their owners abide by local laws and keep their cats at home. Ian Dale, Rosebud

Beach box rights I think it’s time for a reality check for the mayor Cr David Gill with regards to fees and charges for beach box owners (“Beaches a battleground for fees and charges” The News 5/6/19). It is not a privilege as he states. We have paid for our right to own a beach box and we pay our rates accordingly. The council states that it conducts a regular inspection of beach boxes, rubbish. I have contacted the council regarding beach boxes next to mine about the poor and unsightly condition some of them are in and was told by that the owners would be contacted. Twelve on and nothing has changed. Also, beach box owners are encouraged to keep their boxes in good condition, yet the laws of council will not allow owners to remove any foliage or tree branches or grass that is half way up the beach box. Not only is it unsightly, it could be a fire hazard in summer. I have not seen any council works being undertaken in the three years i have had the beach box. I urge all of you privileged beach box owners to voice your protest to the council or, better still, send a letter like mine to The News. Carmen Crundwell, Rosebud

‘Local’ mayors only It is crucially important for all Mornington Peninsula Shire ratepayers that our mayor continues to be a full time resident of the shire. Our Councillors must take this into consideration when in future deciding who fills this important role. Bill Holmes, Sorrento

Time to think There is no doubt that the Australian federal election echoed the US with the most disadvantaged and poorly educated voting in a right wing government. An interview shows an American woman, living in her car, telling us that there is only four per cent unemployment and there is a job for everyone. Absolutely right if you work for wages which do not allow you to live without the aid of charities and food stamps. Am I right in feeling that those who voted for the Coalition government feel the same? A job which does not reward the worker with secure employment, adequate wages, holiday pay, sick pay and superannuation is a job not worth having, and the rising gig economy fits very nicely into the disadvantaged model which is becoming the norm in Australia and certainly in the US. It does make claims of high employment look good though. We are in for a bumpy ride brought about by our greed and self-interest on election day and, as if our race towards fascism needs more help, we have right after the election seen attacks on free speech with [Australian Federal Police] raids on the ABC and journalist Annika

Smethurst. Let’s take the years before the next election to think, among other things, about climate change, the homeless, refugees on Manus and Nauru, the working poor, the unemployed and freedom of speech. I am sure that if you care about the planet and the disadvantaged you will be well able to add to this list. Mel Farnbach, Balnarring

Elites all around Eliteness: Politicians, elite thinkers? Possibly, but we can never tell, as both sides sprout their policies notwithstanding. Are they, as over 5750 informal Flinders voters inferred, “all crooks”? Are two of our regular letter writers elite, namely Brian A Michelson and Michael G Free? Not quite, but certainly consisted contributors, often amusing. We are told of “elite” sportspeople. Yet sadly, in most cases this apparent eliteness does not necessarily marry up with an elite brain. The more money these elites attract the more we are drawn to their (less than) elite opinions. In AFL football the (mostly) former elites, now known as commentators, sprouting fairness but fooling few (like politicians), more often disclose the area of the former theoretical elite brain has yet to show growth. Are [Prime Minister Scott] Morrison and/or [Opposition leader Anthony] Albanese elite, our local man [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt, or maybe cunning? We live in hope, and pray we are not invaded by the Australian Signals Directorate. At this time in Australian politics, anything serves as a relief, comedy being good for the soul. Cliff Ellen, Rye

Show us the money I would like to ask [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt when exactly are we, the people in his electorate, going to see the promised $70 million being spent on the overpass at Jetty Road, Rosebud and the sound barriers being erected on the Mornington Peninsula Freeway? Will we actually see this money or is it just another case of promising everything, giving nothing and putting it back into the pork barrel for next time? I do hope he concentrates on his portfolio and not any leadership ambitions. They have three years to ferment. I look forward to reading about his work in the federal sphere and not bothering with state issues in his glossy pamphlets. John Cain, McCrae

For the record Firstly, I would like to thank Ian Morrison for answering my question about how many people actually voted in John Cain [as head of the Mornington Peninsula Ratepayers and residents Association]. Twenty-five was pretty close to what I guessed (“Elected president” Letters 5/6/19). That being said, I must pull Mr Morrison up on his statement that “It is a pity that Mr Free confuses community activists such as John Cain as being political”. Mr Cain has admitted his membership of political activist group GetUp. While on the subject of Mr Cain, he states (“Associated protocols” Letters 4/6/19) that I have been caught short on climate change. Well,

here is a little bit of news for you Mr Cain: The only mention of climate change I have ever written in these pages was to rebut the statement that coal mining in Australia was dead and to quote a ridiculous statement made by a Greens senator. Then again, fact checking is not a strong suite of the left. Michael G Free, Mt Martha

Street cleaning Guano still grows and the shire doesn’t seem to have responded or even care. Customer service willingly takes inquires but little is done. What is the shire’s policy? Who is responsible? What’s wrong with a pavement wash/buff and shine prior to shops opening? Can we ratepayers scrape up the potential nitrogen phosphate for fertiliser? Please, somebody in the Queens Street shire office, respond or we pooped upon shoppers will take to the shovel and clear it ourselves. Surely that would be worth a reduction in rates. Something else festering on our pavement is the parlous condition of Captain Matthew Flinders mosaic tribute adjacent to the Grand Hotel. Repeated reporting to customer service for repairs are useless and the original councillors who sanctioned this work of art must have had rocks or tesserae in their heads. While the underestimated and often overlooked discoverer of the name Australia with Australians referred to when Capt Flinders reported seeing and trading with the indigenous nomadic peoples has plaques, a cairn, a statue and a parliamentary seat named after him not to mention the village, street, drive and local private community college, it is insulting and degrading to continually see this metre by metre horizontally colourful cartouche visibly deteriorating with the passage of time and many damaging booted shoppers. For goodness sake councillors, actually walk around and make a no brainer decision to relocate the whole historical tribute to a vertical position where it can avoid the roosting bird droppings and hob nailed boots and be a credit to us Mornington Peninsula residents and appreciative tourists. How have you paid the original mosaic maker to repair his work over the years? Placed upon a wall with proper historical interpretive labelling, Capt Matthew Flinders can rest in peace. Ian Morrison, Mt Eliza

Fix homelessness Coming face to face with homelessness in Frankston has my blood boiling. Seeing a couple sleeping rough, right at the magnificent Frankston Library entrance is a shameful disgrace. Frankston councillors should find out why people are suffering; treat them with the respect they deserve; earn their trust; and make homelessness the number one priority. To claim Frankston is the lifestyle capital of Victoria is not just wishful thinking it is a lie. Ignoring this or moving them on won’t stop homelessness, another couple will take their place, then another and another. A temporary shelter is not a home. Give these suffering people immediate support. They are not an economic transactilon. The community has had enough. Failing to act now is inviting anarchy. Vic Langsam, Frankston

This cental lounge and dining area showcases superb oak floors and opening from the lounge is the entertaining area where you can fire up the barbecue in the fantastic outdoor kitchen which is richly appointed with durable quantum quartz benchtops, and as you dine alfresco on the deck be sure to cast a glance towards the handsome bluestone terraces and the solar heated saltwater pool. Back inside, and the dazzling state-of-the-art kitchen takes centre stage with a long island bench topped with Calcutta Primo quartz and a range of stainless steel appliances by Smeg include two ovens, an induction cooktop, dishwasher and integrated refrigerator. The flawless appointments that characterise every aspect of this sensational home extend to the four-bedrooms, three bespoke bathrooms and the first floor living area and study station. The main bedroom has been designed as a private retreat with bi-fold doors opening the space to a sea view. There is a large dressing room and a deluxe ensuite has a double shower and freestanding bath. For guests, there is a second master suite back downstairs, also featuring a walk-in robe and an ensuite, and of the two remaining bedrooms, which both share the main bathroom, there is a walk-in robe and built-in robe respectively. From the street is a three car garage with internal access and if the staggering list of features still has not whet the appetite, ascending from the ground floor is your own elevator. This accomplished residence is blue-ribbon real estate at its best, positioned on the edge of the bay and walking distance from Main Street cafes and shops, parklands, schools and buses.n

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Mr Flanagan succumbs to influenza, leaving wife and six children Compiled by Cameron McCullough WE regret to record the death of Mr Michael Patrick Flanagan, which sad event took place in the Chelsea Hospital on Wednesday last. The cause of death was influenza and heart failure. Great sympathy is felt for the widow and six children who are left to mourn their loss. Deceased was 42 years of age, and had resided in Frankston for about eight years. The remains were interred in the Frankston cemetery on Thursday, the Rev. Father Norris performing the last sad rites. The mortuary arrangements were carried out by Mr Gamble. *** THE Wattle club held a dance in the Frankston hall last Saturday night. There was a good attendance and an enjoyable evening resulted. *** ATTENTION is directed to the announcement appearing in another column relating to the sale of Mr Eldred Ridgers farm lands situated at Balnarring. The property which is to be offered at the Grand Hotel Mornington on 21st June is specially recommended to orchardists and full particulars may be obtained from the auctioneer, Mr W. S. Keast. *** MRS J.H. Fielder, who has successfully established a school of graceful dancing for children in Frankston has, by special request, arranged to open classes for adults, and the opening night will be on the 17th June next. Mrs Fielder who is a thoroughly accomplished and competent teacher

has had five years experience with J. C. Williamson’s former pupil, Miss J. Brennan. *** A SPECIAL meeting of the Seaford Progress Association will be held tonight (Saturday) to consider the proposal of the Council to construct a footpath on the foreshore side of the main road. The matter appears to have been freely discussed amongst residents and it is probable that representation will be made to the Council to have the proposed work carried out on the opposite side of the road. *** OWING, no doubt, to the large number of people who have been indisposed during the last few weeks the re-organisation of the Frankston Brass Band has been somewhat delayed. We understand that Mr C. Willox, who has the matter in hand has made all preliminary arrangements and all he now asks is that intending members submit their names for enrollment. Suitable promises have been secured for practice, and music, instruments, light and other details have all received attention. It is therefore requested that all intending players communicate with Mr Willox without further delay so that a date may be fixed for commencing practice. *** THERE was only a fair attendance at the R.S.A. euchre party and dance held on Wednesday last. Mr S. Burton was successful in winning the gents prize (a very natty tobacco pouch) and Miss. Luhn the ladies prize (a handsome table centre) presented by, Mr J. C. Murphy.

Miss Tasker and Mr Brody were the winners of the booby prizes. Special thanks are due to the ladies who voluntarily assisted with the refreshments. The opening of the R.S.A. euchre tournament takes place on the 25th June when we expect a record attendance. *** FRANKSTON Progress Association A meeting will be held next Friday, in the Mechanics’ at 8pm. This meeting will be of special importance because several matters affecting the welfare of Frankston will be considered. It is hoped that there will be a good attendance of members. *** ONE of Frankston’s fishermen “Son” Burton, made a nice catch of Sand Mullet on Sunday last. The haul must have weighed several hundred weight. *** THE many friends of Mrs Fraser will be pleased to know that she has left the Somerville hospital quite restored to health and strength after the serious fracture of her leg. *** MR Fox of Seaford, is at present an inmate of St. Pancras Hospital, Frankston. His condition is causing his friends grave anxiety. *** PRIVATE Sinclair is at present visiting his sister, Mrs D. Kennedy, Melbourne Road. Private Sinclair was for a time a prisoner of war in Germany and was only released after the signing of the armistice. *** PRIVATE E. Reynolds since his return from the front has been busy visiting old friends but he still has time to lend

assistance to the Frankston footballers. Despite the hardships he has undergone during the past few years Ted seems to have lost none of the dash which always characterised his work on the football ground. *** MR James Grice of “Moondah” Frankston has received the pleasing information that his two soldier sons are returning to Australia. Lieut. Claude Grice who arrives by the “Devanah” in Melbourne next week is an accomplished horseman and is a well known and popular figure on the turf. It will be remembered that he won seven steeple chases on occasion on “Swedish Lad”. Major Geoffrey Grice M.C., M.B.E. of the Highland-Fife Heavy Battery, Royal Garrison Artillery, sailed in the “Bremen” from Liverpool for Melbourne on the 4th inst. The “Bremen” of course was formerly owned by Germany. Major Grice has a distinguished war record. He is well known locally and many will recollect the incident connected with the rescue of a man who was in trouble in the Bay off Frankston. He and Mr E. K. McComb went out and at eminent risk to themselves, picked up the stranger and landed him safely at Mornington. For this deed they both received gold medals. *** ON Sunday last Corpl. R. Sherlock, son of Capt. S. Sherlock, of Frankston, arrived home after an absence of 8 years. Corpl. Sherlock was in South Africa when war broke out.

He immediately proceeded to England and enlisting as a Private and served throughout the war. *** MR Thos Ritchie has been advised that his son. Private R. Ritchie is on his way from England and expected to land in Melbourne shortly. *** FOOTBALL Notes. Somerville V. Mornington Last Saturday Somerville took a weak team to Mornington, and as was only to be expected, put up a rather poor showing. About ten of the best players were absent owing to illness, injury and other causes. The scores were – Mornington, 13 goals, 24 behinds; Somerville, 1 goal, 10 behinds, thus indicating the unequal contest. Somerville were best served by Griffith, Shelton, and N, Unthank, the first named player securing the only goal. *** HEARD in the Train That matters, municipal, are likely to be interesting during the next couple of months. That Cr. Oates is seeking an “engagement” with his Seaford colleague in the Seaford Hall, next Saturday night. That as a sequel to the bush fires which swept through a portion of Tyabb on February 15th, a claim for compensation against Thomas Unthank being heard in the County Court on June 16th. *** FROM the pages of the Mornington Standard, 14 June 1919

scoreboard Sharks see off brave Buds SOUTHERN PENINSULA NEWS

DIVISION ONE

By Brodie Cowburn ROSEBUD came within a whisker of succeeding in a brilliant comeback effort against Sorrento on Saturday. The contest, played on Sorrento’s home turf, see sawed throughout the first half. Rosebud went into the second half down by just three, and looked to be a good chance of getting a win. The third quarter was a Sorrento blitz, as they kicked six goals and established a 31 buffer heading into the final term. The five goal gap looked to have all but sealed their victory. The Buds were determined to not take the loss lying down though, and stormed back with a stunning six goals to one final quarter. They got close, but ultimately fell just short of Sorrento. The final score read 11.19 (85) to 12.12 (84). Leigh Poholke booted five goals for the sharks. At Alexandra Park, premiership winners Pines bounced back from a shocking start to claim a comfortable victory over Mornington. The bottom of the ladder Bulldogs shocked and delighted their home crowd by holding their opponents goalless in the first term. They went into the first break with a five goal lead. The shock start woke the Pythons up, and they bit back with a nine goal to one second quarter. After Pines got going they never looked in danger of losing, and they claimed the win 11.13 (79) to 19.16 (130). Perry Lewis Smith was best afield for the second week running, this time doing damage on the scoreboard with five goals. Frankston Bombers and Mt Eliza faced off on Sunday, with Frankston Bombers taking the win, while Dromana, Frankston YCW, Bonbeach, and Edithvale-Aspendale had byes.

By Brodie Cowburn CRIB Point have finally got off the mark for 2019, recording a big win over Pearcedale in front of their home crowd. Supporters at Crib Point Recreation Reserve were treated to a brilliant first half display from their side, as the Magpies piled on 11 goals to two. Pearcedale performed better in the second half but the damage was done, and the Magpies finally got their first victory for the year on the board. A stunning performance from Thomas Panich helped the Magpies win. He kicked nine goals. The final score read 18.16 (124) to 11.7 (73). At Glover Reserve, Somerville grinded out a narrow win over Devon Meadows. Somerville led throughout the afternoon, but couldn’t manage to put the Panthers away for good. Devon Meadows remained in touch right up until the final siren, but fell just short. The final score read Devon Meadows 9.15 (69) to Somerville 10.15 (75). Rowan Hogenbirk was named among Somerville’s best. He kicked four goals. The victory puts Somerville inside the top six, one win ahead of Hastings. Chelsea put together a good team performance to defeat Tyabb with ease. The Yabbies were made to pay for inaccurate kicking in the first term, as

they scuppered their chance of a good start with a one goal seven behind quarter. Chelsea did what they needed to do to get the job done, and shared the responsibility around. They had ten individual goalkickers on the day, with six of those kicking more than one. Chelsea scored the impressive victory over Tyabb 19.13 (127) to 8.13 (61). At Thomas Barclay Oval, another good performance from full-forward Marc Holt saw Karingal claim an easy win away from home over Hastings. Both sides started slow in a scrappy first term, but a seven goal second quarter saw Karingal run away with it. The Blues could do little to work their way back into the match, and eventually succumbed to defeat to the undefeated Bulls. The final score was 6.7 (43) to 14.16 (100). Holt booted five majors for his side. Langwarrin also had a good day away from home, smashing Rye by 70 points. Rye went into the quarter time break up by a point and looked to be doing okay, before the Kangaroos got the jump on them. The second half saw Langwarrin pile on 11 goals to three and claim the win 6.5 (41) to 17.13 (115). Harry Whitty booted five majors for the losing Demons, while Matthew Payenborg also put away five goals for his victorious Kangaroos. Red Hill and Seaford had a bye.

Somerville secures second spot SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie SOMERVILLE Eagles took a firm grip of second place in State 5 South after Saturday’s 4-2 away win over local rival Rosebud. The result leaves Somerville five points clear of third-placed Tullamarine but this definitely wasn’t one for the purists as both sides seemed hellbent on giving the ball away as often as possible. However some comical Somerville defending and the aerial frailty of Rosebud keeper James Cinar brought some uncertainty to the outcome and Rosebud deserves credit for its competitiveness against its much vaunted opponent. Rosebud coach Pat Sabatino had a simple and effective plan of attacking the visitors on the break by exploiting the pace of Chris Parry in particular. Conventional wisdom would have us believe that Rosebud was incapable of standing up to the attacking prowess of Somerville player-coach Dave Greening and strike partner Mark Pagliarulo but the visitors realised they were in for a contest after eight minutes when Rosebud went 1-0 up. Rosebud’s best player, central defender Ben Gamble, struck a powerful low free-kick from outside the area on the right sending the ball flashing past Brown and inside the far post. A portent of the troubles Cinar was to face came in the 19th minute when he watched an inswinging Greening corner being headed off the line by Gamble and five minutes later a glancing header from Carlo Cardoso went in off the far post to make it 1-1. In the 27th minute another inswinging Greening corner was headed in by big Daniel Hodge under little challenge and just a metre off the goal line and Somerville never relinquished that lead. Three minutes later Rosebud’s Mike Durrance broke clear only to volley over and five minutes later another Gamble thunderbolt was deflected onto the near post and bounced clear. Cinar did well to parry a Greening shot in the 39th minute but he was completely lost three minutes later when Ben Meiklem swung onto his favoured left foot and curled in a cross that sailed over Cinar’s head to make it 3-1. It seemed that Somerville was well in control but a minute into the second half a mix-up involving James McKenzie and Brown allowed Parry to make it 3-2. Shortly after McKenzie and Brown gave an encore performance but the Somerville bench wasn’t applauding. Assistant coach Stan Packer let Brown know how he felt in clear and unambiguous terms and Brown’s response was both animated and colourful. But there was a small matter of three points at stake here and they were precious if the visitors were to maintain their promotion push. Pagliarulo should have scored in the 73rd minute when he broke through into a one-on-one but struck his attempt straight at Cinar who was able to parry then gather. Four minutes later Callum Richardson played

an excellent first-time through ball to Greening motoring down the right and his stunning finish from just inside the area settled the issue. Somerville may well win promotion this season in fact it still entertains hopes of clawing back Old Mentonians in the title race but if it succeeds it will have performed at a far higher level than it did in this match. As for Rosebud it remains on course to cement its status in State 5 in its first season back at this level of competition. In NPL2 news Langwarrin lost 1-0 away to Brunswick City on Saturday and may now be too far behind the league pacesetters to vie for promotion. It increasingly looks likely that staying in the top six and preserving its status in the second tier of Victoria’s elite club competition will be Langy’s focus for the remainder of the season as there now is just a four-point buffer between the Lawton Park outfit and the seventh-placed side. Brunswick should have hit the front after four minutes when Luke Burgess was dispossessed by Nate Foster and his ball across the face of goal was slammed over the bar from point-blank range by Matthew Murphy. The decisive moment for Brunswick came four minutes later when Murphy skipped clear of Jaiden Madafferi down the right and played the ball into the area on the bounce where Riki Hosoai headed past Langy keeper Fraser Maclaren for the only goal of the contest. For the most part Langy huffed and puffed but lacked a cutting edge and was only able to amass a handful of shots on target. Evidence of its impotence in attack came in the

FRANKSTON FOOTBALL CLUB

75th minute when defender Burgess got onto its best chance only to lose his balance and shoot wide from 10 metres. Langy talisman Wayne Wallace was in England on family matters but is due back this week and there’s no doubting his importance and influence on his team. In NPLW news Southern United lost 8-0 away to Calder United on Saturday. Southern coach Melissa Maizels was pleased with her team’s performance against the runaway league leader drawing a comparison with the previous clash between the sides. “I’m not going to focus on the result today because the performance from the girls against the calibre of players Calder have was nothing short of inspirational,” she said. “But I’d be doing the girls a disservice to not acknowledge the fact they turned a 17-0 defeat in round 1 into an 8-0 defeat this time around. The character and attitude of these girls are unrivalled.” In State 3 news Skye United made it seven wins in a row with an emphatic 5-2 away win over fourth placed Brighton last weekend. Skye dominated early proceedings and was rewarded in the 38th minute when Mark O’Connor’s through ball found Daniel Attard whose attempt was parried by Brighton keeper Damien McDade and Mo Elhassan was on hand to smash the ball into the unguarded goal. Minutes before half time O’Connor doubled the lead as he buried his chance when an indirect free kick was touched off to him giving the visitors a two-goal buffer at the break. Three minutes into the second half Mitch Blake

got in on the act and finished off a well-worked move to make it 3-0. In the 62nd minute Attard was dragged down in the box and Daniel Walsh stepped up to make it 4-0 from the spot. However, Brighton applied some late pressure as Seamus Mulcahy (80th) and Dave Nicholas (87th) gave the hosts a lifeline. But new Skye signing Maxim Avram from Brandon Park came off the bench and ensured that Skye claimed all three points after a smart turn and finish in the 93rd minute following some fine build-up play from Harrison Michaelis. The result leaves Skye in third place just two points behind Whitehorse United with a game in hand. That match is against Whitehorse and is currently scheduled for Tuesday 9 July at Skye Recreation Reserve. Meanwhile Frankston Pines is zeroing in on the signatures of midfielder Alex Whyte from Langwarrin and utility player Max Boulton from Casey Comets. Whyte held talks with Peninsula Strikers last week but Pines coach Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor knows Whyte well from last season at Langwarrin and is trying hard to lure the youngster to Monterey Reserve. Taylor also rates Boulton highly and the versatile youngster could prove a valuable addition to the senior squad. In State 4 news Baxter has signed Joe Iline from Pines. Iline is a former Doveton and Baxter player who returns to Baxter Park at a time that the senior squad is hit by injury with Matt McDermott’s broken eye socket likely to sideline him for the next four weeks while Izaak Barr (hamstring) could be out for another fortnight. Baxter had last weekend off and the break helped midfielders Stuart McKenzie and Dan Disseldorp to recover from their injuries. Striker Nathan Yole is still out with a back injury while attacking midfielder Nat Daher (hamstring) will be tested this week. Midfielder Charlie Jones (hamstring) is expected back at training this week. This weekend’s games: FRIDAY, 8.30pm: Frankston Pines v Middle Park (Monterey Reserve), Springvale City v Baxter (Ross Reserve). SATURDAY, 3pm: Eltham v Mornington (Eltham North Reserve), South Springvale v Peninsula Strikers (Warner Reserve), Monash Uni v Skye Utd (Monash University Playing Fields), Seaford Utd v Chelsea (Seaford North Reserve), Pakenham Utd v Rosebud (IYU Recreation Reserve), Knox Utd v Aspendale Stingrays (Park Ridge Reserve), Casey Panthers v Somerville (Prospect Hill Reserve). SATURDAY, 8.30pm: Melbourne City v Langwarrin (Veneto Club). SUNDAY, 4pm: Senior NTC v Southern Utd (Knox Regional Centre).

Brideoake faces raceday treatment charges By Ben Triandafillou TOP-RANKED Mornington-based racehorse trainer David Brideoake will await a hearing scheduled for Monday 17 June over two serious race-day treatment charges put forward by Racing NSW stewards. Racing NSW stewards issued the charges against Brideoake on Wednesday 5 June in relation to the late withdrawal of the Brideoaketrained Princess Jenni from the Adrian Knox Stakes at Randwick on Saturday 6 April. Princess Jenni, who was unplaced in the Group One Queensland Oaks on Saturday 1 June after a tough win in the Group One Schweppes Oakes a month earlier, was withdrawn from the Adrian Knox Stakes after stewards noted an unusual and unexplained lump on the filly’s neck. Brideoake told stewards during a raceday treatment inquiry at Randwick on Saturday 6 April, that the horse had been on a drip through a catheter on the Thursday before being floated to Sydney and Anthony Cummings’ stables. But he said the only needles administered to his horses are via registered vets. “That’s a hard and fast rule,” Brideoake told stewards, before the inquiry was adjourned. “I’ve been training for 25 years and I’m an anticheater. I could possibly be on your side of the bench.” The charges put forward by Racing NSW stewards are: Charge one: AR 254 Injections prohibited at certain times. (1) A person must not, without the permission of

Group One winner: Princess Jenni returns to mounting yard following her Group One Schweppes Oaks victory. Picture: Supplied

the Stewards: (a) inject; (b) cause to be injected; (c) attempt to inject; or (d) be a party to the injection or attempted injection of, a horse engaged to run in any race: (i) at any time on the day of the scheduled race and prior to the start of that race; and/or (ii) at any time during the 1 clear day

prior to 12.00am on the day of the scheduled race. (2) If a person breaches subrule (1), or the Stewards reasonably suspect that such a breach has been committed, they may order the scratching of the horse from the relevant race. (3) If a person breaches subrule (1),

but the horse competes in the race, the horse may be disqualified from the race. (4) For the purposes of this rule: (a) ‘inject’ includes, but is not limited to, the insertion of a hypodermic needle into a horse; (b) it is not necessary to establish whether any substance

was injected, or the nature of any substance injected. The particulars of the charge: Mr Brideoake did, without the permission of the Stewards, inject and/or caused to be injected the horse Princess Jenni between approximately 7:45am and 11:58am on 6 April 2019, the day of and prior to Race 3, TAB Adrian Knox Stakes conducted at Royal Randwick Racecourse on that day. Charge two: AR 249 Administration of medication on raceday. (1) Notwithstanding the provisions set out in Schedule 1, Part 2, Division 2, a person must not, without the permission of the Stewards: (a) administer; or (b) cause to be administered, any medication to a horse at any time on raceday prior to the commencement of a race in which the horse is engaged to race. (2) If a person breaches subrule (1), a disqualification for a period of not less than 6 months must be imposed, unless there is a finding that a special circumstance exists, in which case that penalty may be reduced. (3) The Stewards may order that a horse which has received a medication in breach of subrule (1) be scratched from a race engagement. The particulars of the charge: Mr Brideoake did, without the permission of the Stewards, administer and/or caused to be administered medication the horse Princess Jenni between approximately 7:45am and 11:58am on 6 April 2019 the day of and prior to Race 3, TAB Adrian Knox Stakes conducted at Royal Randwick Racecourse on that day.
