School for two By Jeremy Sollars It’s ‘business as usual’ for Tannymorel State School - at least for the time being. Two students have been enrolled so far this year, despite the Department of Education axe still hanging over the tiny country school in the foothills of the Great Dividing Range east of Warwick. As reported in the Free Times late last year, the State Government proposed closing the school down as it had only one student at the end of 2016 - who finished Year six - and at that stage no new enrolments were expected. Education Minister Kate Jones issued a ‘proposed permanent closure’ directive for the school on Friday 21 October 2016, but under the State Education Act the school must remain open for a minimum of six months after that date to allow for public consultation, meaning the school has a reprieve at the very least until April this year. While that hasn’t changed, the department has told the Free Times it is “reviewing” information collected during its “consultation process” since the issuing of the closure notice by the Minister, and it will “take into account” the two new enrolments for 2017. For Mount Colliery mother of two Priscilla Collingridge that’s about the best she and the two remaining staff of the school can hope for right now. Priscilla decided to take the plunge and enrol her daughter Liliana in Prep and son Jamison in Year one at Tannymorel this year and she couldn’t be happier with the move.

Learning leap: Mt Colliery’s Priscilla Collingridge with Jamison and Liliana.

While the potential closure of the school has divided some in the Tannymorel and surrounding districts - with some questioning the wisdom and expense of keeping a school open with single-figure enrolments - Priscilla decided that if the school is still open for now why not take the opportunity for

her kids to experience a ‘one-on-one’ learning environment. “Jamison did Prep at Warwick East in town, and we just felt Tannymorel was a lot more convenient, being the closest school to us and a five-minute drive from home,” she said.

“He is absolutely loving it - he’s excited to come to school every day to learn and so is Liliana. “I really value the independent way the teachers can focus on the individual child - not every child fits into the same box, and some can become disengaged

at larger schools. “The facilities have if anything exceeded my expectations - it’s a great learning space, it’s open and I am willing to use it.” Priscilla said she believed there was strong potential for Tannymorel to be developed as a school “for kids who need some extra help”, echoing other community sentiments that ‘Tanny’ could be turned down the track into a ‘flexi-campus’ similar to Warwick’s Mount Gordon school, which takes in kids who’ve disengaged from mainstream education. Along with the original school building facilities at Tannymorel State School include a modern, air-conditioned resource centre-classroom, funded under the former Rudd Government’s ‘Building the Education Revolution program at a cost of $250,000, along with a large covered play area. Enrolments are an issue at other country schools in the region, with Wheatvale SS set to lose a teacher due to a dip in enrolments in 2017. Department vague on what happens next A Department of Education spokesman said prior to the enrolment of the Collingridge children, it carried out “a community consultation process regarding the proposed closure of the school, during 2016”. “During the consultation, there was no community resistance to the proposal to close the school and, at the time, there were no forecast enrolments for 2017,” the spokesman said.

I attended the opening of ‘Tainted Landscapes’ at the Stanthorpe Art Gallery last Friday night, Casey’s tips 3 February, with a large group of art supporters.

The last man standing Arts Scene with Sue Keong David Le May’s work leads us into the gallery with dappled flashes of subtle colours, glimpses of green and purple emerge to capture your eye. Chris Fletcher’s sometimes raw excavated views are complemented by ‘man in the landscape’ or the hand of progress on the vast open plain. Mick Pospischi lets his first strokes dictate a rhythm of movement and colour not unlike a kaleidoscope to find a beauty in the remnants of Acland and the encroaching industrial push. A very refreshing take on a controversial subject. The township of Acland is a central subject for all three artists. Located north of Oakey on the Darling Downs, Acland was originally built to support what would become Queensland’s oldest continuously worked coal mine, an underground colliery which closed in 1984. The surrounding districts are fertile rural farmland. New Hope, the company that established the New Acland coal mine - an open-cut operation has progressively bought out almost all properties comprising the town, as well as neighbouring properties and farms. By 2009 there was only one remaining resident, Glenn Beutel, who has refused the company’s offer to purchase his property. He continues to fight the coal mine expansion, determined to protect the beautiful central park which his parents planted and tended when they were alive. No better way to tell a confronting story than through the visual medium.

School closures political in the past The prospect of an early state election in Queensland is a reminder that the future of country schools in the Warwick and other regional areas has been a political hot potato in the past. Tannymorel SS last escaped closure in September 2010, following a backflip by the former Bligh ALP Government shortly before that year’s state election. Nearby Murrays Bridge State School was also under threat at that time, but was likewise saved by the state election bell, with the-then government fearful of a regional backlash against small school closures. Back in 2010, the then ALP Education and Training Minister Geoff Wilson announced Murrays Bridge and Tannymorel state schools would join 12 others from across Queensland and remain open following the completion of a “sustainability review”. “What we have at these two schools is a shining example of communities that know their school and that care about the education of their children,” Mr Wilson said at the time. “This is a fantastic result for a review designed to make sure our schools are delivering the best and the broadest education for students. “Our position has always been that schools should stay open wherever possible, but that they should also be delivering a world-class education.”

In brief

Group demands transparency A new group has been formed in Warwick with a view to keeping an eye on the doings of the Southern Downs Regional Council. RAnGe, the Southern Downs Residents Action Group has been founded by local Andrew Gale who says it will include “like-minded individuals who are growing increasingly concerned at the lack of transparency and public consultation with community members by the SDRC”. “A major discussion issue leading up to the 2016 elections was the increasing number of decisions being made at the SDRC behind closed doors,” Mr Gale said. “If anything, it appears that this has increased under the new administration rather than decreased. “In 2016 the council started a number of initiatives including ‘Cuppa with a councillors’, ‘Q and A sessions’, ‘Community Consultative Committees’ and the budget review process. “However, from having been involved in these initiatives, our members have expressed concerns that these meetings are heavily directed and controlled by council officers and afford little opportunity to discuss issues. “In short, this group believes that these ‘initiatives’ offer little other than lip service to the community. “The demolition of the buildings at Pioneer Park, Swanfels, an action done with no public consultation ultimately was the catalyst for kick starting this group.” Mr Gale said the group was dedicated to “holding local government to account, protecting the heritage of the Southern Downs Region and preserving the amenity of our region, towns and villages”. The group has a Facebook page “Southern Downs Residents Action Group RAnGe” and interested persons are invited to join this page. Organiser Andrew Gale can also be contacted on 0420 589 358 or at agtraining@ bigpond.com

Dust doesn’t stop By Jeremy Sollars The Southern Downs Regional Council will examine a report at its February meeting from council officers into non-compliance with operating conditions by Allora’s GrainX grain handling operation. Allora residents remain furious at what they claim is open flouting by GrainX of its approval conditions, including requirements for mature tree-planting along its South and Herbert street frontages. They are also demanding that the results of air and noise monitoring privately commissioned by GrainX under instruction from the council be made public. As the Free Times reported last December, Herbert Street residents directly across from GrainX have been made virtual prisoners within their homes due primarily to dust from the site. But it is clear that the destruction of quality of life for Allora residents is not confined to that street alone, with many other locals - some on the other side of town - reporting similar problems with the dust, which contains chemical residue in the form of methyl bromide, used as a pesticide in grain storages. Residents have reported a range of health issues, including breathing difficulties and throat and skin irritation - and they are also concerned about the dust and residue entering their rainwater supplies. Noise from the 24-7 operation and from the trucks entering and leaving the site have also helped to turn their lives into what they have described as “a living hell”. A key issue remains the lack of mature tree plantings around the GrainX site to help act as a visual and dust buffer. A council spokeswoman said GrainX had advised the council that trees they originally planted were “stolen or poisoned” and are being replaced, but the “replacements” are little more than sticks. “A Landscaping Plan was submitted to and approved by council,” the spokeswoman told the Free Times this week. “The operator of the site has reported that some of the plants were stolen or poisoned. “Council has requested that the operator undertake a higher degree of landscaping and this has been agreed to by the operator of the site subject to the appropriate advanced trees being available. “GrainX met the original conditions of the Development Approval, as per the Landscaping Plan. “GrainX are now replacing trees that have been stolen, not maintained or poisoned. “GrainX have indicated that they

Ann Lawson has required oxygen support 24/7 since GrainX came to Allora. will deliver a higher level of landscaping than was envisaged in the original Landscape Plan. “Council has indicated that it is not satisfied with the current standard of landscaping or the most recent additional plantings. “Council has received a commitment from GrainX that, subject to advanced trees of the correct species and genus being available, this will be carried out.” The spokeswoman said the council had “recently received data from the noise and dust monitors that have been installed near the site”. “The results of the noise and dust monitoring will be examined and a report prepared for the February council meeting,” she said. “Council has now engaged legal services with a view to undertake legal action in the case(s) of noncompliance. “The noise and dust results will also be provided to council’s legal advisors.” Meeting scrapped, GrainX staff abuse locals The council had arranged a meeting with Allora residents and Mayor Tracy Dobie, CEO David Keenan and senior council officers handling the GrainX case, which had been set down for last Friday, February 3, at

the Allora Library. But the council called off the meeting after residents asked the Free Times to attend the meeting, claiming it would be in breach of its media policy if it did not open the meeting to other local media outlets. The Free Times has also learnt elderly Herbert Street residents were verbally abused last week by GrainX employers while the residents were taking photographs of the current “tree plantings”. The Free Times has attempted on numerous occasions since December to seek comment from GrainX CEO Chris Hood, but he has failed to respond to phone calls and email requests. Trapped in home, rainwater concern For Allora’s Ann Lawson, the dust from the GrainX operation in ‘The Best Little Town on the Downs’ has helped to make her literally a prisoner in her own home. While other locals can get in the car and go for a drive to escape the dust which blankets the town on a daily basis, Ann is unable to leave her home as she requires oxygen support 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Ann lives on Jubb Street which is on the northern edge of Allora -

right across the other side of town from GrainX to the south. While she does not hold GrainX solely responsible for her condition, Ann is adamant that her severe asthma has prematurely worsened since GrainX began operating two years ago. “I’ve only gone right down in the last two years,” she told the Free Times. “I’ve never experienced asthma like I do now. “The dust is absolutely everywhere - I had a girlfriend here not long ago and she spilled a drink and had to wipe the table down three times. “Everything is covered in it a fine film of dust - and when the wind comes up it comes straight in through the screens. “It was never a problem in the past (on that site) before GrainX came in. “There’s even more in summer when the wind comes up from the south-east and the trucks stir it up as well. “It’s not just affecting one street - it’s got to be affecting the entire town.” Darling Street resident Kerry Denny is one of many who are forced to keep windows and doors closed and have the air-con operating 24-7 - and likewise like many others she worries about contamination of her rainwater from the GrainX dust. “You do wonder about the tank water - like most people here I filter mine thoroughly but there’s just so much of it and it’s so constant,” she said. “There’s also the effect on people with asthma and other breathing difficulties. “We are also concerned about the routes the trucks are taking through town, and if they are using the approved routes. “There is a safety concern there as well as the noise and disruption.” OUR SAY - PAGE 7

From front page He said the department’s Darling Downs South West Region had published public notices calling for written submissions on the ‘Tanny’ closure and held a “community meeting” at Tannymorel SS on 23 November 2016. “Letters were also sent to the state and federal Members of Parliament, the local council and government departments and agencies,” the spokesman said. “The region is in the process of reviewing information collated during the consultation process, before preparing advice regarding the school’s future. “This will take into account the two new enrolments for 2017.” The department has previously said if the school was eventually closed, it would “investigate the optimal long-term use of the school site”, which could involve the sale and/or re-location of buildings as has happened at other former country schools.

Police probe teenon-teen attacks Officers from the Warwick Police Child Protection Unit (CPU) have investigated two separate assaults involving teens at Warwick’s Queens Park over the past week. A 12-year-old girl was assaulted by another female teen at the park’s skate bowl about 3pm on Saturday 4 February. The father of the victim told the Free Times that his daughter had a mental disability and had been repeatedly targeted by the same group of individuals - which includes boys as well as girls in recent months, as had his 10-year-old son who has a similar disability. The family only moved to Warwick last August. The father said his daughter had been riding her scooter at the skate park on Saturday afternoon and “everything was fine” until a group of teens approached her. “One of the girls attacked her and beat her with her own helmet - she had mild concussion and spent Saturday night in hospital,” the father said. It is understood CPU officers interviewed the attacker on Monday, 5 February and have issued a formal caution. Meanwhile a male juvenile involved in a separate assault in Warwick’s Queens Park last Thursday afternoon has been officially cautioned by police over the incident. A Warwick Police spokesman said an 11-yearold boy approached a 13-year-old boy while walking home from school, about 3pm on Thursday 2 February, and “goaded” him into a fight, but the 13-year-old refused. The 11-year-old then punched the other boy in the face and tackled him to the ground and then punched the victim in the back of the head before a passing female motorist verbally intervened, causing the perpetrator to run from the scene. The incident was reported to police on Friday and the offender was later interviewed and cautioned by CPU officers. The 13-year-old was treated at Warwick Hospital for bruising and swelling to the face. Police said the two boys attended the same school and were known to each other. A number of other witnesses, male and female, were present at the scene.

Chops for chopper By Jeremy Sollars A cattle auction with a difference raised close to $50,000 for RACQ LifeFlight at the 2017 Stanthorpe Show. The auction was held on the Friday of the show and involved a number of cattle donated by local producers keen to support LifeFlight, whose helicopters often cross the region’s skies on life-saving medical transport missions. Local property manager Grant Macnamara of ‘The Ridge’ at The Summit - who has been transported by aero-medical services in the past out west - set the ball rolling by donating six steers for the auction and once word spread others got on board. One of the LifeFlight choppers touched down in the show arena on Friday, to the delight of visitors. With LifeFlight missions costing around $13,500 per flight, Friday’s auction could well end up saving three or four lives down the track. Around 25 cattle in all were donated for the auction by local pro-

ducers, with a total value of around $33,000, proving the generosity of the community. Local agents and livestock trans-

porters also offered their services for free to support the auction. For more photos from this year’s Stanthorpe Show, see page 8.

Former mayor’s sea change is agreeable By Jeremy Sollars The Free Times caught up with former Southern Downs mayor Peter Blundell at the 2017 Stanthorpe Show, where he did a spot of volunteer announcing. Far from his previous life of politics, Mr Blundell these days resides in Yeppoon, just north of Rockhampton on the central Queensland coast, renowned for its beaches, tropical climate and islands. And to complete the sea-change,

he’s working as a salesman with Rocky Harley Davidsons and the well-known motorcycle enthusiast says he couldn’t be happier. “It’s a good franchise - I’ve been with them for about nine months now,” Mr Blundell said. “I was down in Stanthorpe at Christmas to catch up with family and I’ve enjoyed being here for the show. “Where I live now is certainly very different, it’s just a really love-

ly part of the world.” The Free Times did not seek comment from the former mayor about the current local and state political scene, and he jokingly said: “I wouldn’t make a comment anyway”. Mr Blundell did praise veteran Southern Downs MP Lawrence Springborg - who will retire from state politics at the next election - as “a strong and committed local member”.

Case

Rinehart now mining beef Mining magnate Gina Rinehart launched her premium wagyu beef brand 2GR in Warwick on Tuesday during a visit to the John Dee abattoir. Mrs Rinehart inspected the final stages of processing and boxing of the first exports to China. The wagyu is from two stations in western New South Wales - Caigan and Glencoe, near Dubbo - owned by Mrs Rinehart’s Hancock Prospecting. Mrs Rinehart owns about 8000 head of full-blood wagyu cattle across the three properties, making the operation one of the nation’s largest. John Dee said 50 head of the wagyu cattle had arrived at the facility last week and were scored on their fat marbling.

“They umpired 19 Tests together. “He umpired the controversial 1970-71 Test match between Australia and England where the English captain Ray Illingworth led his team to ‘walk off’. “Lou was a founding member of the Queensland Umpire’s Association and for 22 years he was a board member of the Brisbane Cricket Ground Trust.” His family described Lou as “a highly respected and principled police officer, renowned for conducting himself with unswerving honesty and integrity beginning his service in 1948”. “He served the Queensland Police Force for 32 years,” they said. “During that time Lou worked statewide in regional and city areas. “He also worked on transfer with the New South Wales and Victoria Police. He retired with the rank of Police Inspector on 3 August 1980. “Lou was born in Murwillumbah, New South Wales, in 1925. “He married Isabella Zackrisen in 1954 at St Mary’s Catholic Church in Warwick and had a family of eight children. “Lou passed away at the age of 91 and is survived by his eight children - Janelle, Margaret, Annette, Peter, Stephen, Bernadette and Philip, 21 grandchildren, 10 great grandchildren, his beloved sisters Win and Noreen and his brother Reg.” Following the Latin Requiem Mass at St Mary’s Lou Rown will be laid to rest at the Yangan Cemetery. His family has said that all who knew and loved Lou are invited to attend the Mass and burial. See Casey's Spin, page 22, for more.

Job scams Residents are reminded to be cautious of employment advertisements that require them to hand over personal details such as tax file numbers, with online scams currently rife. A Free Times reader form Stanthorpe spotted a bogus advertisements for Pizza Hut on the online job search engine jora.com. The ads gave the address of a non-existent Pizza Hut at 51 Marylands Street, Stanthorpe. “The job ad goes to a third party in the United States who, after reading the fine print, keep and sell all information including tax file numbers,” the reader said. “I am concerned for myself and for other jobseekers - I also noticed they had advertised in Toowoomba.” Anyone who believes they may have been a victim of an employment scam is urged to contact the government’s IDCARE hotline on 1300 432 273.

Testing times, but Lou soldiered on

Firefighters across Queensland are bracing for another hot and dry period with heightened temperatures and increased fire danger keeping Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES) on alert. Rural Fire Service Assistant Commissioner Tom Dawson said high temperatures were continuing to cause erratic fire behaviour and reminded residents how quickly bushfires could start in these conditions. “With temperatures being consistently above average, we are seeing some erratic fire behaviour and it’s causing us difficulty in predicting the pattern and spread of fires once they ignite,” Mr Dawson said. “This combined with low humidity and increased winds create conditions where fires may develop quickly, spread rapidly and become more intense. “Many regions have felt the effects of the current temperatures and residents need to remain vigilant as this bushfire season is likely to continue until we see decent rainfall in those areas. “The biggest thing we need from residents is early reporting to triple zero (000), as the sooner we can get crews to these fires, the quicker we can start our response.” Visit www.ruralfire.qld.gov.au to keep updated on fire danger ratings and for information on bushfire preparation. To report information on suspicious bushfires call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

Code of silence By Jeremy Sollars

Southern Downs Councillor Cameron Gow has not responded to a query from the Free Times relating to a formal complaint of inappropriate conduct lodged against him late last year. As reported last week, Cr Gow was reprimanded for inappropriate conduct in December last year after a formal complaint was made to Mayor Tracy Dobie. The complaint was received on 25 November 2016, with council documents stating the nature of the complaint was “conduct that is not appropriate for a representative of a local government, but is not misconduct”. The record shows the complaint was assessed as “inappropriate conduct” on 7 December 2016 and two orders were made under the Local Government Act.

The first order was a reprimand issued to Cr Gow, with the second order taking the form of a warning that “a repeat of the inappropriate conduct will be considered as misconduct and referred to the Regional Conduct Review Panel”. The Free Times asked Cr Gow via email this week if he wished to clarify the nature of the conduct, but no response had been received by time of printing. Cr Gow, along with Deputy Mayor Jo McNally and Stanthorpe resident James Lister, has nominated for the LNP candidacy for the State seat of Southern Downs, to be vacated by veteran MP Lawrence Springborg at the next state election. The pre-selection process is continuing. Once Nation is expected to endorse a candidate for Southern Downs shortly.

Letters If politicians wonder why they are held in low regard by the electorate, the decision by Cr Jo McNally and Cr Cameron Gow to stand for preselection for the safe seat of Southern Downs at the next state election offers an answer. Less than a year into their terms as councillors, they want to walk away and seek fulfilment elsewhere. Why? A true ‘conviction’ politician would stay and finish the job in council for which they were elected in good faith. SDRC has big issues to address, and their decision only throws up an unnecessary and damaging disruption to the work at hand. We have seen a long and sorry line of opportunistic politicians, with little or no sense of civic duty who treat their electorate with contempt and indifference. The ultimate insult these two offer up is the expense of a council by-election if either is suc-

The Warwick State Emergency Service (SES) is looking to recruit new members and will have an information night this Tuesday 14 February. Warwick SES will be recruiting members who are reasonably fit and healthy, and willing and able to perform operational tasks. There will be no recruitment for headquarters-based staff such as those wishing to do paperwork, stores, catering etc. SES members are unpaid volunteers from all walks of life who take the opportunity to give to the community, while gaining skills that will benefit them in their day-to-day activities. Membership is open to anyone aged 18 or over who meets the requirements of the unit. Junior members may be accepted from the age of 16. Junior members will receive basic training and be able to participate in some low-risk activities. If you are keen to join the ranks of the SES and assist the community in times of need, come along to SES Headquarters in the Town Hall Car Park at 7pm next Tuesday 14 February.

cessful in their bid. The political class never ceases to disappoint me. Peter Thomas, Berat.

Let’s talk about this! It is said that the SDRC councillors and mayor have been given an over $20,000 raise per year on top of their part-time large salary. We do have a $29 million debt which now will be $30 million. How does the State Government make such an ill-informed decision and how can these councillors and mayor take it when it could be much better spent - eg youth activities, education on recycling, education on obesity etc. I am gobsmacked as a ratepayer - you should be too!

A report to Southern Downs councillors on GrainX at Allora by council officers is due to be tabled at this month’s council meeting - and for locals it can’t come quickly enough. They’ve been waiting months for the results of air and noise monitoring commissioned by GrainX and while one could be cynical about how robust it will be - given GrainX is paying for it Allora residents will examine the results closely. I can only hope that the council is serious about taking legal action over any non-compliance by GrainX with its conditions of approval. It is also disappointing that the company has failed to respond to numerous requests from the Free Times for comment on the concerns of residents. They have been extended the opportunity and their failure to make a public statement can only be taken as a reflection of their lack of care about the impact residents say GrainX is having on their daily lives. 12339129-LB06-17

Treat Your Valentine Romantic food: heart hints Don’t go garlicky ... Unless your date seems to have forgotten their shadow, it’s probably best to go easy on the garlic - when it comes to breath less is definitively more. Do keep it clean ... Nothing will cut a date short like a bit of spinach caught between the teeth, we recommend staying away from this highly sticky ingredient at all costs. Don’t go too hot ... A red face and running nose is a difficult look to pull off, so it might be a good idea to stay clear of anything really spicy. Finally... do have fun As Bridget Jones proved, you can dish up blue soup and marmalade and still win your loved one’s heart, the main thing is to relax and enjoy. Source - www.bbcgoodfood.com

Wondering what to serve this Valentine’s Day? Follow our dos and don’ts of romantic cooking to make sure your dinner date is a sophisticated success. Do your research ... Take the time to tailor your recipe to the tastes of your date - oysters may look special but if your date is polite and not a fan it could be a long evening. Don’t make it messy ... Slurping isn’t sexy - so try not to make anything too messy to eat, unless of course you’re going to be munching your spaghetti Lady and the Tramp style in which case all rules go out the window. Don’t dine al-fridgo ... Don’t take inspiration from the fridge scene in 9 1/2 weeks - in any realistic situation a mixture of milk, chilli and jelly does not end in romance.

Treat Your Valentine Valentine’s Day history traced

was executed, he allegedly sent her a letter signed “from your Valentine.” Probably the most plausible story surrounding St Valentine is one not focused on Eros (passionate love) but on agape (Christian love): he was

martyred for refusing to renounce his religion. In 1969, the Catholic Church revised its liturgical calendar, removing the feast days of saints whose historical origins were questionable.

St Valentine was one of the casualties. Chaucer’s Love Birds It was not until the 14th century that this Christian feast day became definitively associated with love. Ac-

cording to UCLA, medieval scholar Henry Ansgar Kelly, author of Chaucer and the Cult of Saint Valentine, it was Chaucer who first linked St Valentine’s Day with romance. In 1381, Chaucer composed a poem in honour of the engagement between England’s Richard II and Anne of Bohemia. As was the poetic tradition, Chaucer associated the occasion with a feast day. In “The Parliament of Fowls,“ the royal engagement, the mating season of birds, and St Valentine’s Day are linked: For this was on St Valentine’s Day, When every fowl cometh there to choose his mate. Tradition of Valentine’s Cards Over the centuries, the holiday evolved, and by the 18th century, gift-giving and exchanging handmade cards on Valentine’s Day had become common in England. Hand-made valentine cards made of lace, ribbons, and featuring cupids and hearts eventually spread to the American colonies. The tradition of Valentine’s cards did not become widespread in the United States, however, until the 1850s, when Esther A. Howland, a Mount Holyoke graduate and native of Worcester, Mass., began mass-producing them. Today, of course, the holiday has become a booming commercial success. According to the Greeting Card Association, 25 per cent of all cards sent each year are valentine cards.

Roman roots The history of Valentine’s Day is obscure, and further clouded by various fanciful legends. The holiday’s roots are in the ancient Roman festival of Lupercalia, a fertility celebration commemorated annually on 15 February. Pope Gelasius I recast this pagan festival as a Christian feast day circa 496, declaring 14 February to be St Valentine’s Day. Valentines galore Which St Valentine this early pope intended to honour remains a mystery: according to the Catholic Encyclopedia, there were at least three early Christian saints by that name. One was a priest in Rome, another a bishop in Terni, and of a third St Valentine almost nothing is known except that he met his end in Africa. Rather astonishingly, all three Valentines were said to have been martyred on 14 February. Most scholars believe that the St Valentine of the holiday was a priest who attracted the disfavour of Roman emperor Claudius II around 270. At this stage, the factual ends and the mythic begins. According to one legend, Claudius II had prohibited marriage for young men, claiming that bachelors made better soldiers. Valentine continued to secretly perform marriage ceremonies, but was eventually apprehended by the Romans and put to death. Another legend has it that Valentine, imprisoned by Claudius, fell in love with the daughter of his jailer. Before he

Government ignores need The REIQ is disappointed in this week’s announcement from the State Treasurer that the Government would not broaden the First Home Owner's Grant to include established homes. REIQ CEO Antonia Mercorella said the Government was not listening to the needs of regional Queenslanders. “We always welcome measures that help first home buyers get into the market,” she said. “However, our concern is for the long-term impact and the bigger picture in regional Queensland, where new construction is exacerbating the oversupply issues that these markets are facing. “House values are falling, with some markets as much as 30 per cent below levels five years ago. Continuously adding supply of housing to oversupplied markets is irresponsible and will slow down any future recovery. “The Treasurer wants us to believe the only way to economic stability is through residential housing construction, but that’s simply not true. “Real estate is one of the state’s largest employers, with some 50,000 people working in real estate, and the sector provides the state with the single largest source of revenue through stamp duty and associated taxes. “Regional Queensland is facing unique challenges and the Government must tailor its response to those challenges. “A recent CoreLogic report into affordability identified that regional Queensland’s housing affordability was nearing similar levels to Melbourne. “Wages are flat or are going backwards, the cost of living is higher and it’s harder to save for a deposit. “Bankruptcies in regional Queensland are rising, with more than

Queensland Treasurer Curtis Pitt. 80 reported last quarter in Mackay alone. “First home buyers in regional Queensland need more help than their south-east Queensland counterparts and letting them use the grant to buy an established home would be a good start.

“And it would help the real estate sector in regional Queensland stabilise. “It would help slow or stop the fall of median values and it would help first home buyers get a foot on the ladder,” she said. “The Government should offer

Open the door to a career in real estate. that real estate agents work seven days week, but if that doesn’t suit someone’s situation, there are roles that offer Monday to Friday work days and/or other flexible work arrangements. There are also job-share opportunities - it’s all in finding the right fit. You must be obsessed with real estate: Again, this myth evolved from a media-driven cliche of the sales agent - (think Leo Getz) - who lives and breathes real estate market data. While an interest in real estate is likely to be beneficial to any role within the profession, anyone who doesn’t have any knowledge about real estate before they start will probably be able to pick up a lot along the way. They are likely to be working with people who are passionate about their jobs and who are genuinely interested in real estate - and this may rub off! Entry-level training is a twoday course: While there are

some training organisations that offer a condensed fast-in-fastout course they are unlikely to get anyone job-ready. The speed of the qualification is not the important thing, but rather the quality of the education that matters. Another thing that should be taken into account when considering a training provider is their reputation. Some training organisations have a much better reputation than others and having the right brand on a CV will provide a leg-up when securing that first job interview. Real estate can be a really rewarding career, offering many paths to professional success no matter what background or experience someone has. It can also be a fun career too because there are a lot of motivational speakers who excel at getting people really excited about their job and about this profession!

A career in real estate offers so much more choice than many people first realise. The first thing most people think that it means is residential sales, but that is just one in a multitude of options. Getting real estate qualifications opens the door to many careers, including business broking, property management (commercial and residential), buyers’ agency, auctioneering, business development, corporate support, and residential and commercial sales agency. It’s a career that can be flexible around family commitments, is ideal for mums getting back into the workforce or dads looking to enjoy more family time. It offers options for school leavers with great traineeships on offer, or opportunities for older workers where their life experience is greatly valued. There are a number of myths around working in real estate, perpetuated by cliched images presented in the media, and if this is stopping anyone from thinking about re-training for a new career, then they should read on. Extroverts only: It is often assumed that only outgoing extroverts are suited to a career in real estate. Nothing could be further from the truth! There are so many career options within the real estate profession! New entrants can choose to be a headline act or they can make their contribution in one of a number of support roles.

CAPRICORN—December 23-January 20 This week may see the start of a long lasting relationship, personal or professional. Youngsters could provide the inspiration for some bright ideas. Contests of skill are generally favourable.

At present the streets of Warwick are looking beautiful where the crepe myrtle trees are in full and spectacular flower. Lagerstroemia is the botanical name and there are around 50 species of deciduous and evergreen trees native to the Indian subcontinent, SouthEast Asia and northern Australia. The native Australian variety, Lagerstroemia archeriana, grows to around 20 foot tall and has pinkish mauve flowers. Some say the crepe myrtle is the world’s best summer flowering tree which is quite a claim to fame! It was named after the Swedish merchant Magnus von Lagerstom who gave plants he collected to the originator of the botanical classification system, Carl Linnaeus in the 1700s, so they have been around for a while. Some trees just make wonderful street trees and the crepe myrtle is one of these. The council should be congratulated on taking advice in years past and planting them and encouraged to make further use of these great trees. It has a non-invasive root system so does not upset roadways and footpaths, does not grow too large, so does not interfere with overhead wires and is not too wide so it does not obstruct the footpath or scratch parked cars. The spectacular flowers at this time of year, the fantastic orange, red and brown of the leaves in autumn, the great colour and patterned bark in winter and the bright green spring foliage, are added bonuses. It really is a tree for all seasons. The range of colours that has been planted around Warwick streets looks really great. As I have been driving home in the afternoon recently the plantings have really caught my eye

in the late sun. For all the reasons given above, crepe myrtles also make an ideal small tree for the garden. The fact that it is deciduous, giving the sun access to the lawn or flower beds during winter, is another star in its crown. Another point in its favour is that it really performs best with very little pruning, just remove spent flower heads. However, it can also survive a severe ‘murder’ cut back in winter if this is deemed necessary. In fact, the only negative I have come across is that they are inclined to sucker if the roots or base of the tree is damaged such as by a line trimmer so care is needed when cleaning around them in the lawn. Older varieties were susceptible to powdery mildew but the new improved cultivars have largely overcome this problem and given minimum care it thrives in most soil types and situations and flowers prolifically in full sun. Once established, it is virtually drought resistant and if grown in heavy frost areas it may need some protection until established but otherwise needs very little care. Like all plants it will perform better if given some TLC in the form of fertiliser and water but is really very tolerant of neglect once established. On a recent trip from Tamworth I came home via Texas - what a great drive from Manilla. Good road surface, minimal traffic and beautiful scenery. After a good season the colour in the bush was wonderful. The variety of greens particularly took my eye, everything from grey blue leaves of the ironbark to the brilliant lime green leaves of a tree I didn’t recognise that had the most spectacular terracotta red trunk. Another tree whose name I don’t know, but that I have seen previously in the Dirranbandi /St. George area, was there also. It is a tree that grows very tall and has rough black bark for about the first six to 10 feet of its trunk and then is smooth and creamy. Truly a beautiful tree thriving in that area. Both trees grow very large. If anyone recognises either of these from my descriptions I would be very

Crepe myrtle in full spectacular flower. pleased to learn the names. Just two items of trivia for today: There are more microorganisms in one teaspoon of soil than there are people on earth. Butterflies are more attracted to smell and nectar than to the colour of flowers so they may be more attracted to the weeds in your garden than the pretty coloured flowers as many new hybridised varieties are bred for colour to the detriment of perfume. Even though the season recently has been fairly harsh, to say the least, don’t forget the autumn flower show coming to St Mary’s Hall on Wednesday and Thursday, 8 and 9 March. Pick up a schedule from Bryson’s Place and see what you can find to enter.

Public Consultation for Proposed Amendments to the Southern Downs Planning Scheme Southern Downs Regional Council proposes to make amendments to the Southern Downs Planning Scheme. The purpose and general effect of the proposed amendments are as follows: 1. Amendments necessary to appropriately address changes to State planning instruments. 2. Changes to zoning of some parcels of land. 3. Changes to the levels of assessment; particularly the reduction in the level of assessment where it is considered that there is minimal risk of adverse impacts, and where development is consistent with the intent of the zone. 4. Changes to codes as follows: ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ increase motor racing at Carnell Raceway may proceed without approval from Council. ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ measures (e.g. air conditioning, insulation). ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ the consultation period which ends at 5.00pm on Friday, 31 March 2017. ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ (c) ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ support of the grounds; and ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀ ฀

12322883-LB37-16

The Warwick Visitor Information Centre (VIC) has relocated to the Warwick Town Hall, Palmerin Street, in what the Southern Downs Regional Council says is “an effort to improve the access and visibility of the centre”. Southern Downs Mayor Tracy Dobie said the VIC had previously operated out of the Town Hall many years ago, so it’s “wonderful” to see it return. “There are a number of operational reasons why the VIC has moved to the Town Hall, but the main reason is to open up our beautiful building so that residents and visitors can enjoy it,” Cr Dobie said. Regional Promotion, Tourism and The Arts Portfolio Councillor Rod Kelly said the move to the Town Hall would also get more visitors into the middle of town, which would be an asset to the local traders. “Everyone is in tourism to some extent, and we are looking to try to maximise the number of people in the CBD so everyone can benefit,” he said. “As the move is almost complete, we hope the accommodation and attraction businesses can help us to finish the job by supporting and promoting the new location,” Cr Dobie said. “The VIC was open over the past weekend and visitors were very impressed with the facility. “Council officers will now undertake discussions with the Warwick Art Gallery to identify future uses for the former VIC space and provide feedback to council,” she said. The move has prompted some comment in the community about accessibility for tourist vehicle parking, especially caravaners and ‘grey nomads’. Some have also suggested the VIC should have been moved to the historic Warwick Railway Precinct where there

Lou upheld game’s laws The

spin With Casey O’Connor email: wickets-stpe@bigpond.com

Sadly I was reminded this week that you should never put off until tomorrow what you should and could do today. I had promised myself a trip to Yangan with Lew Cooper to catch up with Lou Rowan now unfortunately that is something I will not be able to enjoy. Former Test umpire Lou Rowan passed away last week, and with his passing a little of my own history has gone. Back in 1970 as a brash young 20-year-old, I had my first experience with Lou Rowan when I may have been the person who swiped a cricket stump during a break in play because of bad light at the Gabba. It was the first Test of the infamous 1970/71 Ashes Tour. Rowan was not only the Test umpire but a serving police officer, and for him the law and the laws of the game were black and white. I was pretty fortunate another Lew, Lew Cooper who was secretary of the Queensland Cricket and the Gabba Cricket Trust stepped in that day and cut me a break. It was the start of a friendship with Cooper which continues to this day. When I became a cricket umpire some years later, the irony of my actions that day were not lost on Lou Rowan. I was fortunate to be able to call on his vast experience from time to time as president of the Stanthorpe Umpires Association. He was always generous with his time and advice. While the game may have changed dramatically since the days when Rowan and his peers including Tom Brooks were paid a pittance for their time as Test umpires, he still held firmly in the belief that the laws were the laws. While it may be a little outdated in some areas, there is much to read and like in Rowan's book the Umpire’s Story published in 1972. (I may be a little biased as it includes a now infamous picture of a 20-year-old fleeing the ground stump in hand.) In the book, Rowan not only recounts his career but also covers the laws of the game and devotes a lengthy section to the Conduct of the Game, something many current players at all levels might do well to study. I am saddened that I have missed the opportunity to sit with Lou Rowan and Lew Cooper and reminisce on a past indiscretion that in so many ways impacted positively on my life. I was also looking forward to hearing what I am sure would have been some very strong views on the state of the game today. Rowan spoke of cricket as his life’s joy, and he truly was a gift to cricket. In what I believe is a true measure of the man, he finishes his book with the following, “Regardless of how I may be remembered and the success I may be considered to have achieved, I will be happiest of all just to be remembered as a son of Joseph Rowan.” Rowan was tough and uncompromising, but he was nature’s gentleman and will be sadly missed by all that had the privilege of knowing him. - Casey NO JOY FOR REP CRICKETERS Rep cricketers from both Stanthorpe and Warwick were involved in last weekend’s finals of the Mitchell and Davis Shield. Unfortunately, there was no joy for either team. Stanthorpe’s Mitchell Shield side travelled to Gatton to take on the Lockyer side. It was the team’s third finals appearance in as many years. Lockyer set the visitors a 223-run chase. Duane Lihou was the best of the Stanthorpe bowlers, finishing with 3/39 from his eight-over spell. In reply, Hayden Lanza and Ben Staley were the best of the Stanthorpe batsmen. Lanza topscored with 36 while the captain scored 35. In an

Lou Rowan - A moment in time that linked the late Lou Rowan and myself. impressive bowling performance, Lockyer blowers dismissed Stanthorpe for 132 in just the 38th over. The Warwick Davis Shield side played Toowoomba in the final of the Dud Davis Shield in Toowoomba. The Warwick side faced a smart Toowoomba outfit who bowled well and held every catching opportunity. Warwick batted first on a pitch that had some inconsistent bounce. Wickets fell as the Warwick players struggled to build partnerships and were dismissed for 84. Mitch Bourke and Pat Bourke both got good starts, but were unable to build a big total. Eighty-four was never going to be enough runs, but the Warwick players fought hard with the ball and fielded well. Toowoomba lost five wickets in their run chase before passing the required total. COMMON THEME FOR MALLET PLAYERS Hardly surprising that the reports from the captains of all three forms of mallet sports played in Stanthorpe had a common theme this week playing in extreme heat; the necessity to keep well hydrated and making the most of shaded areas between shots. In the association croquet games, Jenny Tunbridge and Andrea Denkewitz played Margaret Dickenson. They scored 14 including a break of three, but it was not enough to defeat Dickenson who had two breaks of three in a winning score of 17. Joy Newman made a winning return to the game when she partnered with Carol Verwey. The pair pegged out with a score of 26 -16 against opponents Heather Widderick and Grace Howard. Despite the oppressive conditions, there was a very full court for golf croquet with a new player joining 13 others. In the first session, Shirley Page and Sharyn Roser had a 13-8 win over Teresa Pyne and Val Fancourt. Liz Ellway and Justin Liddy proved 13 was a winning score when they beat Marian and John Castles 13-5. Bev Sullivan and Judy Lock had a narrow 7-6 win over Pauline Inglis and Dianne Wren. Johnno, the new recruit was put through the nuances of the game by Elaine Brown, and word has it that he is already showing plenty of natural ability. Some of the players called it a day after the first session, but there were eight stalwarts who battled on for a short game after the morning tea break. Bev Sullivan and Di Wren shrugged off the heat to take a 7-5 win over John Castles and Jus-

tin Liddy 5. Shirley Page and Elaine Brown had a convincing 6-2 win over Marian Castles and Pauline Inglis. The most notable performances on a tough day were from Justin Liddy who scored eight hoops in the first session and Dianne Wren who scored seven in the second session. A small but enthusiastic group played on gateball on Friday despite the extreme conditions and the show holiday. In the first game, Andrea Denkewitz, Sharyn Roser and Johnno played the White balls against the Red team of Joy Newman and Grace Howard. John Draper took on the referees duties. The White team had a comfortable 16-10 win in game one. In game two, their opponents struck back to win 11-7. Following the break, Newman and Howard switched to White Balls and scored a close 10-8 win in game three and went on to win the final game 14-7 after taking full advantage of their opponents' errors. KAY STEALS THE SHOW President of the Stanthorpe Golf Club Stephen Kay stole the show in Saturday’s competition for the February Monthly Medal. Kay selected a seven iron at the 12th and watched as his shot landed just short of the pin and gently rolled into the hole to give him an ace on his scorecard. He had no difficulty in winning the pin shot at 12. While Stephen Kay celebrated his hole in one, it was Greg Fraser who was celebrating the win in the Monthly Medal after he shot a nett 67 for the round. Fraser played in the middle of the field and had to wait until the remainder of the field before his win was confirmed. Two players were snapping at his heels. Runner-up in the event sponsored by Dixon Homes and Wes Smith was visiting Warwick Golf Club player, Ian Anderson, who finished just one shot back on nett 68. Dylan Barraclough was one under par for the round and claimed the Best gross score. Barraclough also shared the putting honours with Lyle Bryant. The pair had 26 putts. Richard Reardon collected the pin at three and Aaron Simmers at 17. Pro-pins went to Richard Reardon at 1/10, Stephen Kay at 5/14 and Dylan Barraclough at 9/18. The birdies nest at 18 was shared by Adrian Jannenga, Matt Waterworth and Dylan Barraclough.

In the run down, a ball each to Keith Jones (68), Darryl Boekholt (69) and Paul Mills (70). Helen Jones was the winner in the Ladies competition, shooting a nett 75 which put her two shots in advance of runner-up Kay Webb (99). Nikki Waterworth had least putts (31) and picked up a ball in the run down. This Saturday, club members Nikki and Matt Waterworth are sponsoring a Single Stroke event with tee off from 11.30am. A time sheet is on the board at the club house. THREE ON THE TROT The Warwick Clay Target Club held their February shoot in extremely hot conditions. Warwick shooter Dan Johnson made it three wins in succession when he won the prestigious Robin Loy memorial shoot. Early in the difficult event which sees two targets released simultaneously and the shooter needs to shoot both James Bomford shot a creditable 48/60. Bomford saw his lead disappear soon after when John Lee (Mt Lindsay) scored 51/60. Lee maintained his lead almost to the end of the event only to see Dan Johnson score 53/60 to snatch the win. It was a similar result to the 2015 memorial when Dan shaded John Lee by a target to win.

RED HOT SCORES AT ‘GARRA A good field played the Wallangarra Monthly Medal and Putting competition last Saturday despite the scorching heat. There were some red hot scores returned in the event sponsored by the Wallangarra Railway Cafe. The winner with nett 62 was B. McMillian. He also topped off a great day by taking out the puts (25) on a countback. Runner-up with nett 64 was K. Williams. T. Murphy picked up the captain stakes with 66 nett. Only two pin shots were claimed during the round. J. Purcell took the ninth and S. Hampstead snared the elusive 11th and also picked up the Approach at 14. Murphy rounded off a good day, claiming the birdies nest at the first. The club extends a special thank you to their Monthly Medal sponsor Amanda Blair and the staff at the Wallangarra Railway Cafe for their continued support. This Saturday, the club is holding a single stableford. Three players from the club are off to play this Saturday at Borneo Barracks, and are wished the best of luck in that competition. A reminder to all members and other golfers that Wallangarra is hosting Darling Downs Golf Association (DDGA) Open Carnival on 19 February. Tee off is from 9am to 9.30am QLD time and the cost of $25 per person includes lunch. CLAYS AT INGLEWOOD Inglewood Sporting Shooters held a Clay competition last weekend. Tom Donald out pointed Graham Morgan and Stephanie Dudgeon to win the event. An impromptu Benchrest rimfire event was also held and saw Ray Dudgeon relegate Ross Jackson and Stephanie Dudgeon to second and third placings respectively. This weekend the club has scheduled Single Action and Rem Fire Bench rest competitions. After the lunch break, there will be an Action Pis-

tol Match using existing setup or another scenario set up by Richard White. DECISIONS ON JUNIORS IN SENIOR COMP At the monthly meeting of the Warwick Cricket Association held on Tuesday evening, several important decisions were made regarding Junior cricketers playing “up” in the Senior competition. “The minimum age of a player to play in the Senior Competition will be 13 years of age.” It was also decided that all players between the age of 13 and 18 years of age must have parents' consent and inform the captain of the team they are playing in. All under 18 players will be required to bat with a helmet and also wear a helmet if fielding close and keeping up at the stumps as part of Cricket Australia recommendations.“Should the parents decide they don’t want their child to bat or bowl or field close, they are to inform the captain of these conditions. These conditions were passed at the meeting and will take effect immediately. Queries should be directed to the Warwick Cricket Association. SPORTERS OUT IN NUMBERS There was a good roll up of Sporters who were out in numbers last Sunday despite the conditions. It was Paul Byrnes who did best in the heat to claim a win with Terry Roser grabbing the runners-up spot. The run-downs went to John Rawlings and Bob Watts. Mark Lynam played well to score the best gross and also claimed the pin shot on the 12th and topped off the day with a meat tray. Ray Thorn took the pro pin and Phil Zikan the remaining pin shot at the 17th. It was Ian Anderson who went off with the last remaining meat tray. Hoepfully, this Sunday there will be some reprieve from the heat for Sporters when they tee off at the usual time of 7am - 8.30am. A reminder that if you have the urge to chase a little white ball around the gold course on Sunday morning while enjoying some great company, visitors are always

welcome to join the Sporters crew. FISH FISH MORE RELEASES It has been another busy season for the Warwick District Recreational Fish Stocking Association Inc. As the restocking season draws to a close, another 13000 Silver Perch fingerlings were recently released. They are expected to grow to legal size in a little over 12 months. There are another 50,000 golden perch due for release into Leslie Dam in coming weeks when they are delivered from the Granite Belt Fish Hatchery. The final release will take the overall number of fingerlings released into our waterways and impoundments this season to 230,000. That should ensure the waterways and impoundments remain hot spots for fishermen and women over the next few years. THINGS GET INTERESTING AT TANNY It has been another busy week for the Tannymorel Bowlers. Lorna, Tuck and Mick O’Leary ventured to Tenterfield and won their Triples competition. Not satisfied with that success, two days later they were joined by Pedro Collis to win the Tenterfield Fours. My spies tell me that although Lorna was not the difference between winning and losing, she has been very vocal about the win. Tuck seems to be missing his prizemoney. After all the excitement of the away win of the group, it was down to important business on Friday Round four of the Classic. The roll up for these nights just grows each week. Last week 44 players turned out for a super night. The winning team was Geanie Lambert, Hamish Hoffman, Venus “Ole Gal” Smith and Tuck who brought along his winning Tenterfield form. Runners-up were Michelle Amos, and Myrtle and Aaron. It has been great to see so many non-bowlers joining in and trying a sport they haven’t previously played and enjoying plenty of laughs. Geanie Lambert and Leonie Rickard are said to be skiting in their households about being No 1. Is there some practice going on in the hallways of some houses while the Jims are busy working? After Friday night, the leader board is very tight. Tuck sits on 11 points. Venus “Up to No Good” Smith is one back on 10 while Marg T, Jimbo Rickard and Geanie “No.1” Lamberton are all on nine points. Close enough on seven points are Vic, Peter Gynther and Myrtle. There are a swag of players with seven points and are not out of the game yet. With two rounds left in the Classic, a win this week could see any of those players jump to 11 points and challenge. A winner looks a long way from cut and dried - anyone can win from here. Why not get along to Tannymorel this Friday night and join the fun. Results last week went this way: Kushla Reddington, Vic Nelson and Darren Rabbit defeated Shaun Kelly Richy Tartan and peter Gynther 19-7. Clayton Frank Geoff Farmer and Mick O’Leary (another in winning Tenterfield form) were too strong for Sidwood Lamb and Sue and Ant Butz, winning 11-4 (Ant apparently put off his game by his Mother telling him what to do all game). In a closer game, Wayne “Corn Cob” Pe-

tersen, Lorna T and Jimbo Rickard defeated lane Hoscher, Marg T and Johno Johnson 15-9. Ken Grayson, Fritzy and Koala had a 13-9 win over Brett Grayson Wayne Frank and T.B. Geanie “No 1” Lambert, Hamish “Young Gun “Hoffman, Venus “Ole Gal” Smith and Tuck teamed up for a 21-5 win over Mavis Lawardon, Jim Lamb, Brian Walsh and Donnie Coultens. Gary Amos, Matt “Tie Down” Shepherd and Thommo defeated Lloyd Johnson, Geoff Davis and Grumpy 13-9. Michelle Amos, Myrtle and Aaron had a 22-8 win over Leonie “No1”Rickard Iro Fordyce and Burt - finals score 22-8. CLASSY PERFORMANCES IN T20 It was back to T20 for Warwick Cricketers last weekend. There was some great cricket played at all venues and some classy performances. Dion Galloway who is better known as a footballer showed he is a versatile sportsman and a better-than-average cricketer when he took a seven-wicket haul for Wheatvale in their game against Railway Hotel Rascals. Wheatvale had set their opponents a run chase of 74 with Brendan Malone topping the batting with 65. Galloway ripped through the Rascals line-up to give his side a comfortable victory. The impressive performances continued at Slade where Colts set Sovereign Animals a 234run chase. John Cleary was on fire with the bat, scoring a T20 ton. His 104 and partner Shaun O’Leary’s 74 provided the backbone of Colts big score. Sovereign Animals were dismissed for 105. Colts 7 for 234 (John Cleary 104 Shaun O’Leary 74 Glen Doyle 3/39 Cahil Davis 3/39 d Sovereign 7 for 105 Cahil Davis 21no. A. Nero 19 Ben Gross 2/5 Alister Costello 2/11 Top 2 teams from Pool “A" to play in semifinals of T20 are Colts (498 runs scored) and Wheatvale (486 runs scored) with two wins each. Maryvale topped Pool “B" with three wins and the second spot will be determined once all three teams have submitted their runs totals. In other games at Mayhew Oval, Redbacks defeated Inglewood in a closer game. Redbacks were dismissed with 8/145. Jamie Saunders topped the scoring with 60. Next best was Tyhe Clarkson with 44 runs. Inglewood bowler Garth Miller took three wickets. In reply, Inglewood fell just six runs short. Garth Miller backed up a good bowling performance to top score for Inglewood with 35. Redbacks Tyhe Clarkson took 2/29 after his efforts with the bat. The final of the T20 competition will be held on 25 February. The semifinals will commence at 10am with Maryvale and Wheatvale playing at Slade Oval. Allora play Colts at Mayhew Oval. The grand final of the T20 will commence at Slade at 2pm with Pink Balls being used in the final. A barbecue and presentation will be held following the game.

James Bomford shot a creditable 48/60 early in the difficult event, where two targets are released at the same time and the shooter needs to shoot both. James was pipped soon after by John Lee (Mt Lindsay) with a very good 51/60. He maintained his lead right to the end, when Dan Johnson shot 53/60 to win the event. This was a similar result to the 2015 memorial where Dan shaded John Lee by a target to win the event. This is his third win in a row in this event.
