FIONA Bilbrough, above, is the newest member of the 20 Melbourne Painters So-ciety. Seen here with her portrait of Rosie Batty, Bilbrough hopes to join the ranks of 14 other 20 Melbourne members who have won the Archibald Prize, including Max Meldrum, Sir William Dargie, Sir John Longstaff and Ernst Buckmaster.
The Archibald dates back to 1921 and is
awarded for the best portrait, preferably of some man or woman distinguished in art, letters, science or politics, painted by an Australian resident.
Winner of the $100,000 prize will be announced on 7 July.
The annual exhibition of 20 Melbourne Painters Society opens at the Glen Eira Art Centre on 12 July.
Bilbrough found that the subject for her entry in this year’s Archibald, Rosie Batty, has had a profound effect on her life.
No other model has ever created such a response and recognition in the artist.
See Page 11 to see how the artist Fiona Bilbrough became so close to Rosie Batty.

Field of 17 in poll raceVOTERS bored with a seem-ingly interminable eight-week federal election campaign can now begin to focus attention on polling day on 2 July after the political runners were confi rmed on Friday.
The Australian Electoral Com-mission released the offi cial list of candidates on Friday (10 June).
A fi eld of six will contest the seat of Flinders and 11 candi-dates will battle to win the hotly-contested marginal seat of neigh-bouring Dunkley.
Liberal Environment Minister Greg Hunt holds Flinders by a whopping 11.8 per cent margin so there seems little chance of an upset victory as he faces chal-lengers Carolyn Gleixner (La-bor), Willisa Hogarth (Greens), Ben Wild (Animal Justice Party), Yvonne Gentle (Rise Up Austral-ia Party) and independent Shane Lewis.
Polling suggests the vote in Dunkley could go down to the wire. Sitting member Bruce Bill-son, the former Liberal small
business minister, decided to re-tire from politics earlier this year after more than two decades.
The affable and popular Mr Billson stepped down after be-ing dropped from Prime Minis-ter Malcolm Turnbull’s cabinet when he ousted former PM Tony Abbott.
Liberal candidate for Dunk-ley Chris Crewther faces a fi ght to retain the seat for his party in the face of a surge in support, ac-cording to polls, for Labor candi-date Peta Murphy.
Mr Billson won the seat with a 5.6 per cent margin in 2013.
Jeanette Swain (Greens), Tim Wilms (Liberal Democrats), Ruth Stanfi eld (Derryn Hinch’s Justice Party), Michael Rath-bone (Family First Party), Sally Baillieu (The Arts Party), Jeff Reaney (Australian Christians), Lin Tregenza (Rise Up Austral-ia Party), Jack Tyson (Animal Justice Party) and independ-ent Joseph Toscano are the nine candidates joining Ms Murphy and Mr Crewther in the battle for Dunkley.
Preferences could be crucial in deciding whether the seat is retained by the Liberals or it swings to Labor.

YEARS of fundraising and advocacy by ageing parents of children with disabilities and their supporters has paid off with the promise of a secure future.
The parents, who fear for the care of their adult children after they are no longer around to look after them, are overjoyed at the support they have received for a two storey, four-unit complex to be built at Rosebud by April 2018.
The $2.4 million Cloverleaf centre, earmarked for Uniting Church land in Murray Anderson Rd, will be built to house men and women – many now in their 50s and 60s – who need full-time care.
Until outside care is provided, they will continue to be looked after by their long-suffering parents, many of whom are in their 80s.
“This is a great outcome,” said Marie Hell, of Crib Point, who has looked after her 50-year-old severely disabled son, Geoff, since he was a baby. “Years of hard work have paid off.”
On a personal note she confi ded: “Ours aren’t ordinary lives. We knew when Geoff was nine months old that we were in for it; we were offered the choice of putting him in an institu-tion or taking him home with us and caring for him. We take every day as it comes.”
Such a strong campaigner for the project is she that Nepean MP Martin Dixon’s offi ce nominated her for a Victorian Disability Award for which she is now a fi nalist.
But that honour was far from Mrs Hell’s thoughts last week, with news of the project’s funding being all she wanted to talk about.
“I am very excited and a lit-
MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire is about to ap-point an in-house lawyer to provide “risk-based” solutions for its legal dilemmas.
The “corporate counsel” will report to the chief fi nancial offi cer - currently Matthew Hubbard - and be responsible for legal advice and repre-sentation on a such issues as planning, commer-cial contracts, property transactions, governance,
employment law, freedom of information and privacy.
While no salary range had been provided, The News believes an in-house lawyer is considered to be more cost-effective than the bills being clocked up by the shire from private lawyers.
Shire CEO Carl Cowie sees hiring a lawyer as being a “proactive” stance towards managing the need for legal advice on internal matters, as well as to “cover off” on the variety of local, state and federal laws and regulations that impact on the shire’s regular operations.
He declined to comment on how much the shire spends on legal advice.
A legal source told The News that about half of the state’s 79 municipalities employ in-house lawyers that focus on specifi c areas, but only about six have “corporate counsels” who report directly to the CEO or chief fi nancial offi cer and have a brief covering all council-related matters.
The advertisement for the shire’s corporate counsel states the successful lawyer will need to “… possess sophisticated communication and en-gagement skills and be able to interpret and trans-
late complex legislation into practical advice and risk-based solutions”.
The move to bolster legal effi ciency comes in the wake of a long-running dispute among coun-cillors over their expenses budgets.
Cr Hugh Fraser said that while two of his coun-cillor colleagues, Antonella Celie and Anne Shaw, obtained legal advice over a recent expenses dis-pute “without council’s knowledge”, his recent request to shire management for legal advice on the code of conduct review was denied.

tle saddened by the [development] announcement, as it will assist only eight families when there are hundreds of ageing carers on the Mornington Peninsula,” she said.
“I know families with parents aged 85 looking after children in their 60s. My heart goes out to them.”
Mrs Hell, 70, said hers and seven other families with disabled children chipped in $30,000 each to match a $250,000 donation from the Bendigo Community Bank, Rye. The state gov-ernment and the federal government provided $1 million each.
The one-off grants will pay for con-struction of the building, a collabora-tive community project between the Uniting Church, Bendigo Bank and Community Lifestyle Accommoda-tion, as well as the parents.
“Access to appropriate and stable housing is fundamental to quality
of life. It is a priority for the Labor [state] government to support those in the community who have a disability and ensure they have access to suit-able housing,” Housing, Disability and Ageing Minister Martin Foley said.
Mr Dixon’s offi ce described the funding as “a great bi-partisan result for Rosebud”.
“We had met with both Daniel Mulino and Martin Foley’s advisors last year to introduce and advocate strongly for this project,” electorate offi cer Russell Joseph said.
“In the interim, the federal govern-ment offered $10 million nationally to assist urgent housing in the disability sector as a stop-gap measure until the full accommodation package can be determined by the NDIS.”
The project will provide accom-modation for people with a disability
who are expected to be eligible for the National Disability Insurance Scheme in the future, but who live outside the NDIS trial sites.
Flinders MP Greg Hunt said the project would help address short-term community needs while the NDIS transition gets under way.
“For almost 2100 people with a disability in Flinders, the NDIS will bring a world of choice and control, providing access to new and innova-tive supports and services that are right for them,” Mr Hunt said.
“The NDIS is also expected to gen-erate signifi cant growth in investment and jobs. It is estimated that up to 5100 jobs in disability services will be created in the Flinders electorate and surrounding areas when the scheme is fully rolled out from 2019-20.”
Mrs Hell said a back-up plan would cater for parents who could not afford
the $30,000 bond, with an independ-ent committee choosing families for places at Cloverleaf.
The design of the building was a collaborative effort, she said, with parents meeting the architect and service providers to discuss design and materials. “It’s been a coalition of partnerships with the land provided by the Uniting Church,” she said.
“We have good networking skills, passion and commitment. We wanted it built as premium quality accom-modation.”
Each unit will house two residents.“They are far more than just bricks
and mortar,” Mrs Hell said. “They are designed to look after the needs of residents.”
Mrs Hell said being nominated for the disability award “blew me away”.
“It shows that if you have the right partners you can do anything.”

MORNINGTON Peninsula council-lors are divided over a revised code of conduct that discourages them from making personal attacks on each other and sets out the process for dealing with bad behaviour.
However, shire CEO Carl Cowie told The News he expects that the ver-sion of the code of conduct adopted at last week’s special council meeting will be signed by all councillors be-fore the end of June.
On Friday, the mayor Cr Graham Pittock said that while he did not agree with some of the amendments, coun-cillors had no choice but to sign the code and “just agree to abide by it”.
The state government introduced reforms in March requiring all coun-cils to revise their councillor code and adopt it by 4 July.
At a special meeting on Monday to sign off on the amended code - which has a much stronger focus on expected behaviours - councillors disagreed on its effectiveness, with claims that it would stifl e debate.
Among the 10-page list of expecta-tions and behaviours, the code makes it punishable for councillors to divulge confi dential information, accept gifts other than of “token value”, “malign” other councillors for their decisions, and use council resources such as mo-bile phones and cars, for personal use.
The code backs up state government reforms introduced last year to deal with rogue councillors, who will now face an independent conduct panel that can impose six-month suspen-sions.
Before the new laws, the govern-ment was only able to sack an entire council if there were ongoing prob-lems.
After the meeting Cr Hugh Fraser said the council was trying to push through changes before the deadline, calling the draft put up by manage-ment a “scissors and paste” job, in-consistent with the Local Government Act.
Cr Fraser said the Act already con-tained “confi dentiality” clauses to promote transparent council business, but that the revised code of conduct departed from this and would prevent
debate.“The result is a repressive uncertain
code which, under pain of a miscon-duct allegation, could be used to stifl e democratic debate by councillors in council and the community.”
Cr Fraser said his request for legal advice to help council sort it out was refused by shire management.
Voting for the code were deputy mayor Cr Bev Colomb, and Crs Anne Shaw, Antonella Celi, David Gibb, David Garnock and Andrew Dixon.
Opposing the motion to adopt the code were the mayor Graham Pittock and Crs Fraser, Tim Rodgers and Tim Wood.
Cr Celi said the code would improve the way councillors discussed council issues and set a “clear framework” that would prevent councillors launching personal attacks against each other.
“It’s like muddy the football not the player and that’s what makes a good sport in the game,” she said.
Under the legislative reforms, all councillors must sign the revised code within one month of the majority of councillors passing the resolution, or face disqualifi cation.

THE state government may be facing anti-sky rail protests but it is happy to welcome a SkyBus to Frankston.
SkyBus has taken over the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula to Mel-bourne Airport shuttle route.
It offers free travel to children, online ticketing and smartphone ticket access. The cost is $38 one way.
The service takes in Frankston, Mt Eliza, Mornington, Dromana, and Rosebud.
SkyBus director Adam Begg, who says he was “born and raised in Frankston”, said the operator was delighted to be expanding on its exist-ing routes.
“I understand the importance of easy, convenient and value-for-money services from the outer suburb to
Melbourne Airport,” he said. “We are excited to be bringing our service to Frankston and offering residents an outstanding experience.”
Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke said: “The Frankston community welcomes the arrival of SkyBus to our area.
“Improved and cost effective trans-port services, particularly to the airport, are important to residents of Frankston and outer south-eastern suburbs.”
The Frankston pick-up point: 444 Nepean Highway, outside Pragmatic Training; Mt Eliza: 84 Mt Eliza Way, opposite Safeway; Mornington: Corner Main and Queen streets, outside old library; Dromana: bus stop 88 opposite Harvey World Travel, and Rosebud: outside Safeway near the primary school, 967 Pt Nepean Rd.

The signs were locally designed, fabricated and installed, and highlight the strong community partnerships between industry, business, tourism and community.Also in Hastings, Alfred Street Plaza Stage 2 should be finalised in July. The Boes/Graydens roundabout is due for completion late August, and Bocce Courts are being constructed at Hastings Tennis Club for use by public and U3A.Placemaking worksRecently completed works in Tyabb have refreshed and enhanced the shopping strip. A new garden bed and plants in the park on the corner of Frankston-Flinders and Mornington-Tyabb Roads has been installed, and directional signage to the new toilet block will be installed soon. Garden beds and plants will be rejuvenated at the Tyabb Hall and car parking area, and the bollards and crossing points at the train station will be repaired and painted.Placemaking works are also underway in Bittern, including the construction of a new information shelter and notice board as a visitors’ hub, landscaping and plantings at Frankston-Flinders Rd, completion of fencing at Graham Myers sports field to provide safer play areas, a new drinking fountain near the BBQ shelter, and a concrete footpath cross-over at Creswell Road between Bittern Primary School and Graham Myers Reserve. Works will be completed prior to the end of June.Planning better town integration and accessDetailed aerial mapping and surveying has been completed in Rye to assist with planning the better integration of the township with the foreshore, pier and beach as well as traffic, pedestrian and bicycle management along Point Nepean Road. A ‘mobility map’ has also been developed for Rye to assist people to better plan their journey around the town. In Blairgowrie, the Shire is proposing pedestrian access improvements at the shopping strip to provide a safe crossing point for pedestrians and improved access from the disabled parking bays.

The returned item can then be simply taken off the shelf by another borrower and immediately borrowed again meaning DVDs and other high-circulation items are kept in circulation, rather than waiting to be shelved. The new return shelves are part of the roll out of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to provide library members with additional and improved service options, and reduce manual and repetitive tasks for staff so that they can provide higher-value customer service to library members in a safer working environment.

MORNINGTON PENINSULA’S NO.1 SOLAR COMPANY - UNBEATEN QUALITY & VALUE GUARANTEED
A MAN whose name is synonymous with squash, not just on the Mornington Peninsula but across the southern suburbs, has been inducted into the Squash and Racquetball Hall of Fame.
For almost 40 years Allen Minchington owned and managed the Oakleigh, Portman’s and Dromana squash centres, as well as being a player, coach and administrator.
He is still active in the sport, most recently running in-house practice and coaching sessions at Tonic Squash and Gym, Dromana, on Sunday afternoons.
As a Victorian senior state team member, junior and senior state team coach and team manager, he is a highly sought after coach who has written many articles on coaching and the sport.
As Victorian state match and pennant chair-man for 10 years, his clubs attracted large numbers of inter-club players, most of whom he coached, and who brought considerable success to his venues.
Throughout his time he has been on the com-mittees of the Southern Districts Squash Asso-ciation, Southern Squash League and Victorian Squash Federation.
The awards night at Mulgrave Country Club was a trip down memory lane for 140 past and present players, offi cials and administrators.
While the sport has always been popular, it has had its share of ups and downs: “From the 1960s-80s the earnings from the game just could not keep pace with the price of the land on which the courts were built,” Minchington said.
Land values were rising all the time making the courts, which sit idle most of the time, unvi-able, he said.
“And, during that time, lots of others sports became popular, such as indoor games of
Hall of fame: Squash champ Allen Minchinson with Squash and Racketball Victoria president Peta Murphy and his life membership award. Picture: Gary Sissons
Fame: squash hails its long-time hero
cricket, soccer, volleyball and handball, which took squash players away from the sport.
“All of a sudden there were lots more things to do.”
Minchington praised the mayor Cr Graham Pittock for establishing the eight-court squash and gym complex in Collins Rd, Dromana.
He said other established squash courts –
including his old courts in Rosebud – had been demolished over to make way for apartments.
It has been a long road for Minchington, who began playing during the glory days: fi rst at Thornbury in 1960, then Oakleigh and Golfl inks Av, also Oakleigh, in 1964 before establishing himself at Portman (Oakleigh) from 1980-96.
He bought Dromana in 1989 and ran both
centres for seven years before retiring as a pro-prietor in 2009 after 54 years of running squash courts.
“It was a fl uke job in the beginning as I was mixing business with pleasure and I was quite good at it,” he said. “I took to the racquet skills easily and was basically self-taught – I just cop-ied the experts and turned out a handy player.
“If I was to run from here to the corner I’d be puffed out but I can go for one and a half hours on the squash court without raising a sweat.”
Minchington, who played No 4 in the 1966 Victorian state team alongside legends of the sport Geoff and Bill Hunt, said career highlights included winning the Tasmanian title and then beating the dominant Hunt in a challenge match at well-established courts in Alma Rd, St Kilda.
“It was a rare win and real feather in my cap,” he recalled. “A friend of mine was in the gallery that night and, even after all these years, he still greets me with the words: ‘I was there’.”
Another highlight was coaching the state women’s team to eight Australian titles in both seniors and juniors. “They won three of four senior Australian titles and the junior girls didn’t lose over the four years that I had them.”
He said coaching the women was “a different atmosphere that certainly helped me with my coaching.”
Now living at Safety Beach, Minchington speaks fondly of the big name sportspeople with whom he has rubbed shoulders, such as football-ers Ian Stewart and Jack Clark who “knew they had to be squash fi t to be really fi t for all sports”.
“It’s a great sport but it’s just a shame it’s in decline,” he says.

MYSTERY surrounds the deaths of two scuba divers near Mornington pier, Friday, but rough seas and strong winds almost certainly contributed to the tragedy.
Diving instructor Leonie Hanson, 40, who worked for Harbour Dive Australia, Mornington, and her pupil, a 39-year-old man, of Langwarrin, drowned when they got into diffi culties around noon.
Witnesses said they heard screams as a desperate Ms Han-son tried to keep her unconscious pupil afl oat and lift him onto a ladder on the seaward side of the concrete wall, while being buffeted by large waves.
Nearby restaurateur Robert De Santis, who ran to help, told Channel 9 news that a frantic Ms Hanson was strug-gling to hold onto the man and yelling “hold him”.
Mr De Santis climbed down the ladder and into the water
fully clothed in a desperate rescue attempt. He said the pair had their full diving gear on making them hard to hold on to.
He and other rescuers removed the man’s diving gear to push the tank off so they could lift him up while a sinking, and obviously exhausted Ms Hanson, slipped away out of reach.
Mr De Santis said the instructor’s sole concern was in sav-ing her pupil.
“She was helping as well ... I said 'grab the ladder' because I could see she was getting tired, so I put her on the ladder, held his hand,” he said on Channel 9 news.
Witnesses said a boat owner moved in to help as Mr De Santis struggled to help the pair, but Ms Hanson was over-whelmed by exhaustion and had possibly gone into shock when she disappeared.

waves batter pier“I was just saying 'hold on, hold on', and I don't
know ... I had a rope around my leg ... then the fi reman told me to let go … she started sinking,” he said.
Police, CFA, paramedics at the pier praised the ef-forts of Mr De Santis and other would-be rescuers.
Sergeant Dennis Ramsay, of Mornington po-lice, said the rough conditions on the outer side of the pier hampered rescue attempts.
“That was the major issue,” he said.“Big waves were hitting them because they
were on the rough side and they kept getting pushed into the pier.
“She was struggling to hold onto the man and everyone was attempting to assist; it was just re-
ally unfortunate.“It appears the man was already deceased and
there was a lot of work going on to help him and she just slipped away.
“That’s what it looks like for now, but we may never know how it occurred.”
Sergeant Ramsay said it was puzzling why Ms Hanson’s buoyancy vest had not kept her afl oat.
Strong north-westerly winds and the big swell made it hard for police search and rescue divers to recover Ms Hanson’s body, which was eventu-ally found under the pier hours later.
Police are not treating the deaths as suspicious. They will prepare a report for the coroner.

A MORNINGTON Peninsula artist has an ambi-tious plan to sell his three metre by two metre canvas for $1.6 million.
Philippe de Kraan says his online “offer” is receiving attention around the globe.
The Gathering, an eye-catching expression-ist work in bold, bright colours, took de Kraan almost four years to complete using a miniature paintbrush. While most people who have viewed the work would have diffi culty scraping together that kind of money, de Kraan said interest from overseas was encouraging.
“The news is getting around and I’ve had feedback from people in London and Dubai,” he said.
“I’m very confi dent that it will sell because even people who have everything, don’t have this.”
De Kraan is not fazed by amazement over the price tag and hopes the work will end up in a public space such as a hotel foyer or even Crown Casino. “Hypothetically, it’s peanuts, because what could it be worth in 20 years? There is a buyer out there, there is.” Liz Bell

POLYESTER BATTS
ROSEBUD artist Fiona Bilbrough doesn’t always fi nd, or need, to have a strong bond with her subjects. But Rosie Batty was an exception.
After their fi rst contact where Bilbrough sought the anti-domestic violence campaigner’s cooperation of sitting for a portrait to be entered into this year’s Archibald prize, there was no doubting emotions had been stirred.
“I feel I’m actually Rosie, except my son is still alive,” Bilbrough said last week. “There’s a similarity in our stories.”
There’s now an ongoing relation-ship between artist and subject that stretches beyond paint on canvas.
Bilbrough has become an active campaigner for a petition calling for politicians to do all they can to prevent domestic violence which will be presented to them on 20 June, the birthday of Batty’s son, Luke, mur-dered by his father during a cricket practice at Tyabb in February 2014. Greg Batty was shot by police at the scene and died in hospital the follow-ing day.
“I was taken aback by the depth of catharsis's I experienced while producing this particular artwork,” Bilbrough says.
Chosen as Australian of the Year in 2015, Batty told the media the day
Keith Plattkeith@mpnews.com.au
Artist finds herself in Archibald subjectafter losing 11-year-old Luke: "I want to tell everybody that violence can happen to anyone, no matter how nice your house is or how intelligent you are."
In the two years since she has fought the change what she sees as systematic failures in responses to domestic violence in Australia: lack of communication, public perceptions of domestic violence, lack of funding and about police and legal proceed-ings that she felt disempowered her ability to protect herself and her son.
Bilbrough says she understands when she hears about women who say fears for their own safety, prevented them from reporting abuse.
Service providers continue to struggle with systemic failures in the Family Court, specifi cally relating to issues between parents who can no longer parent together due to domestic violence.
“Apathy and neutrality are the new enemy to victims. Victims leave vio-lent partners only to be battered by the courts,” Bilbrough says. “People in public wanting to remain neutral and unwilling to be involved contribute to long delays in resolutions for children of Family Court cases.
“The effects are directly visible through children who are denied in-tervention and counselling - this being disallowed until end of proceedings.
“If children are left the subject of unresolved Family Court litigation they tread a diffi cult and sometimes impossible path to-ing and fro-ing be-tween parent's homes whilst litigation outcomes get repeatedly adjoined.
“Children need to be able to see
the light at the end of the tunnel and feel a sense of belonging which is an integral part of building good mental health. That includes children as well as parents.”
Bilbrough said children “left in limbo they lose their resilience and are more likely to become a breeding ground for long term mental health and relational issues”.
These social and emotional diffi cul-ties “become permanent disabilities entrenched in their makeup. In a lot of cases the damage is irreparable. Society pays the price in the end”.
Bilbrough said Batty’s Never Alone campaign outlined a fi ve-step reform program for the Family Court “that will hope to address systematic failures”.
“The campaign so far has helped raise awareness, but laws and govern-ment reform sadly remain unad-dressed and out of touch when dealing with the reality that parents are facing today,” Bilbrough said.
However, despite her anti-domestic violence activism, Bilbrough says artists are not always known to be “publicly forward”.
“We hope our art is our voice. I've always hoped my work would speak for itself and not be viewed with political content.
“But since becoming a mother and meeting Rosie Batty, things may have swung in a different direction, temporarily.
“It's the journey that counts - the end product does not hold as much value. Before I complete one piece, another one has started in my head. The chase continues.”

MCCRAE lighthouse will go purple tomorrow (Wednesday 15 June), the colour chosen to high-light World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.
Mornington Peninsula Shire’s advisory committee on ageing and Peninsula Advisory Committee for Elders (PACE) are working with McCrae Lions Club to “shine a light” on elder abuse as a public health and human rights issue.
Elder abuse is any act which causes harm to an older person and is carried out by someone they know or trust, such as family and friends.

Park makeoverWORK is going on behind the scenes to make the park in Lyons St, Rye, go from being “drab to fab” through the installation of a community garden and kitchen and bench seats for everyone.
Rye Beach Community Centre, Mornington Peninsula Shire, Peninsula Health, Rye Primary School and Rye Kinder are behind the push.
“We want to make it a fun place for the kids and families of Rye,” Rye Beach Community Centre manager Kerryn Ladell said.
Residents can have their say on improving the park at a winter solstice event, 4-7pm, Tuesday 21 June, at the park.
Features will include an outdoor kitchen, pizza oven, vegetable gardens, artwork and sculpture seating. The organisers will provide food and music.
Details: Rye Beach Community Centre, 5985 4462.
Park working beeRESIDENTS are invited to help at a planting session at Red Hill Community Park, Saturday 18 June. Hundreds of plants and trees will go into the ground at the session, which runs 10am-
noon. Planters are asked to bring their own tools, such as a tube stock planter or trowel and hammer and meet in the car park at Pt Leo and Callanans roads corner.
The long-awaited community park at Red Hill Station Reserve came about early last year with the removal of 78 pine trees as well as ivy, karamu, sweet pittosporum and other woody weeds.
The pines were cut into logs and shipped to China, and the weeds – and builders’ rubble – were removed by eight young members of the federal government’s Green Army.
This was followed by the installation of paths and retaining walls, garden beds and a war memorial. Others features are a play area, picnic area with tables and seats, and electric barbecue courtesy of Lions Club of Red Hill.
Plant guide NEPEAN Conservation Group has produced an indigenous plant guide “to encourage residents to appreciate and maintain the natural beauty of the peninsula,” coordinator John Trewarne said.
Cr Hugh Fraser launched the brochure on Fri-day at the Sorrento Community Centre alongside Nepean Conservation Group president Ursula DeJong and Laura Crilly, representing the Morn-ington Shire and Green Army.
In addition to Parks Victoria bushland and seascape land, and Mornington Shire’s Green Wedges, much of the region’s maintenance is done by friends’ groups as most land on the pen-insula is privately owned, Mr Trewarne said.
“Ongoing habitat survival, and efforts to main-tain the natural beauty of the peninsula, is in the hands of the residents, and the brochure is a tool to be used to achieve this.”
Mr Trewarne said the guide would be given to schools “as a leaning tool for the next generation of carers for our peninsula”.
The guide is available at Glenvue Nurseries, Browns Rd, Rye, call 59851000, as well as at
The Briars, 59748417 and the shire, 5950 1000.
Winter warmersMORNINGTON Peninsula knitters can help families keep warm this winter by providing blankets, scarves, beanies, mittens and jumpers for those in need.
Items can be left at any Mornington Peninsula branch of the Bendigo Bank, to be collected by Southern Peninsula Food for All’s Winter Blanket Appeal for distribution by St Vincent de Paul’s Mornington Peninsula Conferences.
Wool is also needed for knitters who cannot afford to buy it, yet who love to knit for a cause.

Detecting cancerTECHNOLOGY to detect pancreatic and lung cancers sooner is now available at Peninsula Health – thanks to the Mornington Peninsula community.
More than $500,000 was raised to bring the endoscopic ultrasound and endo bronchial ultrasound equipment to diagnose patients at Frankston.
“The fi ve-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is only 5 per cent, so early detection is vital,” Peninsula Health’s endoscopy head Dr Leon Fisher said.
“The reason pancreatic cancer is so deadly is because most tumours aren’t detected until they’re at an advanced stage – when treatment is unlikely to be effective.
“But the EUS machine is a fast, simple and low-risk procedure that can diagnose pancreatic cancer within hours.”
The machine complements CT and MRI scanners, as well as surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy services at the hospital.
Pancreatic cancer is the fi fth most common cause of cancer death in Australia.

THE judges presented 21 trophies to wineries from the Mornington Peninsula, Yarra Valley, South Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand and even Italy at last week’s International Cool Climate Wine Show at Mornington Racing Club.
Of the 400-odd entries, 80 came from the peninsula and, of the 21 trophy awards, seven went to peninsula wineries.
Two successful peninsula wineries were Elgee Park and Tucks Ridge estates, which won inaugural perpetual trophies: Elgee Park for its Family Reserve Chardonnay 2015 and Tucks Ridge for its Buckle Pinot Noir 2013 wine.
In her show comments, chief judge and master of wine Meg Brodtmann praised the high quality of wines.
The mayor Cr Graham Pittock said the peninsula’s wine industry had grown in signifi cance and highlighted its importance in promoting the region.
Management committee chair Kevin Wyatt said was “thrilled” that wine industry people from Tasmania and South Australia had fl own in for the show.
Other peninsula wine winners were Red Hill Estate’s Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014, Foxeys Hangout’s Best Pinot Gris 2015 and Bittern Estate’s Bittern Estate Rosé 2015.

LIBRARYOUR
Ideas. Information. Inspiration.(RFID) technology is currently being introduced at Mornington Peninsula Library Service. RFID self-service technology is becoming the standard technology for Australian libraries and will provide library members with additional and improved service options. RFID will improve customer service, privacy and security, and convenience for library users by enabling:· quick and easy borrowing,· faster customer service,· more access to the expertise of librarians,· even greater privacy for borrowers,· improved security for the collection, and· improved services and library spaces.
Mornington Library will need to close for a short time so that RFID infrastructure works and installation of equipment can be completed
this exciting project. There will also be a redesign of some library spaces to make room for more services and create new opportunities for reading, relaxing, learning
and studying. Rosebud, Hastings and Somerville Libraries have reopened.
Mornington Library will also receive some minor refurbishments such as new carpet and furniture.
The Library chute will not be accessible during the temporary closure but we have extended loan periods to ensure that library items will not be due for return during the closure.
When the library reopens,
ability to check-out multiple items at once and greater access to library staff.
This new system allows library staff to spend even more time with our customers, so we can provide you with the latest on the best books, help you
(even if you are not sure what that is) and support you with excellent customer service.

MORNINGTON Peninsula artist Craig Davy has won the $3000 best work prize at the Flinders Art Show with an oil painting of Gunnamatta beach.
Davy grew up on the peninsula and around Sor-rento where his great-great grandfather stonemason George Morce built many landmarks, including the Koonya Hotel and St John’s Church.
Davy spent much time trekking the peninsula in search of landscapes to paint and his works refl ect nature. His impressionistic approach emphasises light, movement and brush stroke.
Davy and wife Rebecca recently bought Noel’s Gallery, Red Hill.
Other award winners were best equine art, Vicki Sullivan, and a taste of wine, Yannick Anderson.
“Overall, I think the show has a broad range of work to suit all tastes, ages and price brackets,” show president Christine Haydon said.
“The $150 small works give an opportunity for people to buy something, as most of us can fi nd a place on a wall for a small painting and the price point is affordable.
“The great thing about the show is that we take all works and the funds we raise go back to the com-munity.
“This Year is our 49th and we think that each year we improve – just like a good wine.”
More results: best oil or acrylic, John Bredl; best watercolour, Kathie Mathes; best pastel, Jo-Anne Seberry; emerging young artist, Kerrie O’James; peninsula seascape, Jacqui Simpson; peninsula landscape, Carole Milton; best printmaking, Lisa Sewards; best contemporary work, Simone Dole; best fl ora/fauna work, Julie reason; best drawing, Kate Jenvey; best still life study, Claire McCall; best painting of still life, Glenn Hoyle; best small work, Kathie Mathes; highly commendeds: Paula Petersen, Lyn Davis and Ann Hackett, and president’s pack-ers’ prize, Andrew Stevens.

COOKING, art and craft, a circus and acrobatics show, a visit from the fi re brigade and police, petting zoo and jumping castle entertained children at Camp Manyung, Mt Eliza, last weekend.
The 55 children and their siblings, enjoyed the junior camp run by the Challenge organisation, which supports children with cancer.
At one stage the children – all in costume – put on a show for their leaders.
This annual camp for children aged four to eight aims to give them time away from mum and dad.
“It is often the fi rst chance for many kids to spend time outside of the hospital environment and for some, it is their fi rst night away from home,” Challenge CEO David Rogers said.
“It is important for children living with cancer to continue to experience a normal life outside of treatment, and camps are a fantastic way to do this.”
The not-for-profi t group strives to improve the lives of chil-dren and families living with cancer and provides them with experiences, skills and self-confi dence to embrace life and move forward on their journey.
Kids with cancer have fun outdoors in Mt Eliza
Among the gum trees: Ruby Clements, of Somerville, was one of the children enjoying

WHAT’S NEW...
THE state government has released a discussion paper which includes "giving stronger powers to the Minister for Local Government to deal with individual councillors who compromise council governance".
The paper, released on Friday by Local Gov-ernment Natalie Hutchins, follows a series of community forums and consideration of 300 sub-missions.
The proposals also include mayors having two-year terms and greater powers.
Councils would also be required to be more transparent in the hiring of CEOs, their pay and conditions.
The CEO is the only executive appointed di-rectly by councillors – the CEO is oversees for all other staffi ng appointments.
The discussion paper also suggests:
Consistency in council electoral structures, the number of councillors and wards. Putting communities at the centre of shaping council plans by requiring councils to undertake community engagement, such as using citizens juries. Removing the requirement for non-resident property owners to vote. Making voting rules consistent and providing the option for electronic voting for council elec-tions in 2020 Giving stronger powers to the Local Govern-ment Minister to deal with councillors who com-promise council governance Improving transparency of CEO pay, recruit-ment, conditions and performance Having one land valuation system for levying rates.
State opens ‘discussion’ on plan to reshape councils
WOMEN with an interest in sustainable agricul-ture are invited to develop their knowledge and share their stories by taking part in a two-year focus group run by the Port Phillip & Western-port Catchment Management Authority.
The opportunity is open to all women involved in sustainable agriculture from around the West-ern Port region and the Mornington Peninsula. Participants will have the opportunity to tell their stories and initiate and promote sustainable agriculture.
The group will focus on developing broader networks and encouraging women to speak out-side their communities on sustainable agriculture and opportunities for sustainable food production.
Kicking off the program will be a two-day workshop in September, facilitated by Jenny O’Sullivan of Linking Environment, Agriculture
and People, followed by a series of workshops, farm walks and other activities.
PPWCMA’s sustainable land management coordinator, Sarah Halligan, said it was a great opportunity for women in the Western Port region to get together, share their knowledge and experiences and help promote the benefi ts of sustainable agriculture.
“There is currently little support for women in the sustainable agriculture fi eld and it is an-ticipated that the development of this group will help to fi ll that void and provide a much needed network for women in Western Port.”

LETTERS
Unsafe adviceUnfortunately, the legal advice relied on by Crs Ann Shaw and Antonella Celi has been compro-mised by the manner in which it was obtained (“Expenses allowed” and “Concerning News”, Letters 7/6/16).
Mornington Peninsula Shire Council did not authorise obtaining the advice. Shire manage-ment did so at the request of Cr Celi. Council was unaware that legal advice had been obtained until it was produced by management for discus-sion by councillors at a briefi ng at Mornington on 21 March at which Cr Celi was present.
Council has dealt with eight councillors’ claims for professional development conferences and seminars expenses on at least fi ve occasions since 2012, including the claims of Cr Celi and Cr Shaw.
The inescapable fact not considered by the lawyers is that on all but the fi rst occasion, shire management reported in writing to each of these council meetings that “Each council-lor is allocated $4000 per annum for attendance at conferences and seminars, or the equivalent of $16,000 per councillor term”. An additional $3500 is allocated if a councillor holds the offi ce of mayor.
Neither shire management nor councillors could be in any doubt as to this. No council meeting has authorised claims in excess of the prescribed amounts.
Why these facts were not provided by shire management to the lawyers has not been ex-plained.
Legal advice is only as good as the instructions and facts provided for the lawyers’ considera-tion. The legal advice relied on by Crs Shaw and Celi fails that basic test.
Councillors and ratepayers are entitled to a full explanation as to all these matters.
Hugh Fraser, councillor, Nepean Ward
Pay their wayWhat a kerfuffl e there is about councillor's exceeding their $16,000 allowance for semi-nars and conferences; with some saying "I'm innocent", some "You're guilty", and some "I know nothing". The fact is that the "allowances" are being abused and, in my opinion, rorted. These "allowances" should be scrapped im-mediately.
If councillors want a trip to Paris, or a di-ploma, or a director’s course, let them pay for it themselves. If they want to improve themselves during their four year tenure they should go to school and pay for it themselves.
We elect them for what they are.It seems to me that not many councillors are
altruistically dedicated to serving the shire and their constituents; some are in it because it is a lovely little well paid part time job that beats working in a factory. Others are in it for other reasons.
There is no use in voting the bad ones out if all we get is more of the same, voting in perks and benefi ts for themselves.
Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington
Guilty partiesThe policies of both the Labor and Liberal par-ties towards the asylum seekers on Manus Island and Nauru should be criticised. Isolating these people and keeping them out of sight is an abuse of human rights, especially as Australia is a party to the Refugee Convention.
To keep families indefi nitely is cruel and unnecessary. The incidence of self-harm and mental illness is high.
Border Force is towing boats back to Indonesia constantly but we don’t hear about it. Silence succeeds.
Why is Australia so precious that we cannot absorb a mere 3000 but off load them to poor countries? An exodus is taking place world wide and we treat them badly. My country is better than this. Patricia Rayner, Somers
End detentionI read with concern that there has been another report about the dangers women face both inside and out of the Nauru detention centre. This group of people – men, women and children - who fl ed their homes to seek asylum continue to live in very challenging and unacceptable surroundings. It is clear from every report about our offshore detention centres, Nauru and Manus Island fi nanced by the Australian Government, that the environment in and outside these centres
is toxic and dangerous and extremely detrimen-tal to the physical and mental health of these people. No one, especially little children should spent time in these centres.
The refugees and asylum seekers currently in these offshore detention centres are caught in a web spun by political decisions with no reason-able and appropriate outcomes for them.
After years they still live in fear with no idea or hope for their futures because of this political impasse.
This group should be considered unique, never to be replaced by other people seeking asylum and safety.
These people should be brought to Australia where they can get appropriate treatment, be quickly processed for refugee or other status and have a chance to settle here and contribute to whichever community they settle in, as many before them have done.
Let’s be big enough to see this outrage for what it is, and bring them here
Ann Renkin, Shoreham
Detention martyrWhile at Frankston Magistrates Court last week to support the church group against the indefi nite detention of children and refugees (“Christians show no regret for their trespass”, The News 7/6/16) it became clear to me how frightened the establishment is of the common people. As I have never been to court, I was amazed that the security procedures for getting into court and see justice in action are just as severe as on our borders.
The seven people who dared to question the major parties’ asylum seeker policy at [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt’s offi ce were given the chance to make statements to the bench before being judged. All spoke with conviction of the right-ness of their actions and came across as caring and loving members of our society.
I came to the realisation that it was not the ac-cused who where on trail here, but a government that has been getting more and more distanced from Australians’ notion of a fair go for all. I applaud the magistrate for not recording convic-tions for all of defendants except one who, in my eyes, is the tragic martyr of this sorry saga of indefi nite detention in our concentration camps.
Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach
Lesson in democracy After reading last week’s letter pages (The News 7/6/16), I’m amazed by how many of your cor-respondents still have no idea how things work in a democracy. First, we had Mr Steiner up in arms about an [election] promise [by Liberal Party candidates Chris Crewther (Dunkley) and Greg Hunt (Flinders)] to build a $2 million ath-letic track at Mornington (“Shades of Mirabel-la”). What would you have him do Mr Steiner? Back the loopy Greens policy of fl ying 50,000 refugees from United Nations holding camps to Australia every year? Back Labor’s support for militant unions?
This was followed by a letter from John Cain (“Hunt’s state of play”) in which he criticises our local [federal] MP for having a say on [state] issues.
When we go to the polls in July we send a very clear message to our elected MP, just what the majority of people in his or her electorate expect from them. If, for example, we live in the seat of Melbourne and elect Adam Brandt, then we surely can’t complain when he tries to vote down boat turn-backs. Here on the Mornington Penin-sula, for many years, the majority of people have elected a Liberal MP and have every right to expect that member to refl ect that majority view in Canberra. Michael G Free, Mt Martha
Reef ‘not so bad’It is intriguing to note the continued distor-tions and untruths about the Great Barrier Reef contained in letters published from those with signifi cant antagonism to our sitting member.
[Environment] Minister [Greg] Hunt has can-celled fi ve Labor-approved dredging operations in the reef area which would have dumped the spoils in the reef waters much to it`s detriment. The fi nal dredging undertaking is to have all dredged material dumped on land to minimise any potential damage.
It also beggars belief how anyone can claim that run-off from a coal mine several hundred kilometres inland in Queensland could affect the reef. Any such water would run to the centre of the nation.
The run-off issue for the reef comes from farming activity. Would the left/green cohort like to see all farming stopped in the area along with the rest of their nation destroying wishes?
This run-off is a diffi cult issue but it is being addressed.
The reef management authority report just released confi rms the condition of the reef is nowhere near as dire or serious as the alarmists would have us believe.
Today the UN’s top marine offi cial has praised the federal government’s management of the reef.
I note also that almost every sign promoting Greg Hunt in the Rye/Sorrento area has been defaced, even though on private property.
This demonstrates the moral turpitude of those opposed to the government and its sitting mem-ber. Peter Grey, Rye
Two heads are betterAs you drive around Frankston, you could be forgiven if you think you're in a time warp. The smiling cherubic face of a former member of parliament adorns many strategic and obvi-ously very salubrious staging posts. Perhaps it's dynamic duopoly liberally implanted to remind us to vote for the right person. However, to someone fresh from outside the peninsula, they may be forgiven for thinking that more heads are better than one.
One can't help but feel that you get a bigger bang for your bucks with two pollies for the price of one retired polly.
Ian Morrison, Mt Eliza
Savings from wasteFor almost a decade Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has had a commitment to alterna-tive waste technology (AWT) which is a move towards zero management of waste on the peninsula.
An indicative estimate of the annual savings for a modern AWT plant that diverts 75 per cent of waste from landfi ll is $4,789,430. This could be put towards building and operating a plant on the peninsula. The savings is made up from: $1,805,387 not having to pay the EPA landfi ll levy; $1,238,118 conversion of organic waste to fertiliser, not mulch, by the AWT plant; $1,073,925 differential between local charges and carting off the peninsula; $672,000 for the electricity generated by an AWT which is about three to four times the current electricity gener-ated for 80 households from tip biogas.
Graeme Morrison, Rosebud West
Missing in detail I am a swinging voter when the occasion arises and have listed some of my concerns which did not appear on brochures I received from candi-dates in the Dunkley electorate: Chris Crewther (Liberal) and Peta Murphy (Labor).1 What are their views on how the community should handle the matters of the protection of human life at all levels of development and decline?2 What are their views on the teaching sex edu-cation to primary age children?3 What are their views view on marriage?4 The problems affecting dairy farmers in the milk pricing set by big business and corporations.5 What is their background in school life and previous employment?
In a less serious vein: who on earth designed the postal vote application in the name designa-tion and put the status “Mr” just before “Other” when Mr goes fi rst alphabetically?
[Liberal] Bruce Billson served Dunkley well and it was a pity that we have lost him as small business minister to [his replacement] Kelly O'Dwyer who is holding, not only a young baby, but other ministries as well. Not good politics there. We need [to be represented by] more than just a pretty face and an interest in fi nance.
Maureen Federico, Frankston South
Horse supportI am writing about the situation at Ace-Hi Ranch at Cape Schanck (“Spurs out over horse cruelty claims”, The News 10/5/16). I am sure others will agree with me when I say that "in a reason-able condition" and in a "moderate" condition is not good enough for the animals at Ace-Hi. The fact that the RSPCA already has a fi le on Ace-Hi and has had a number of welfare concerns brought to its attention over the past decade should worry the public.
I am fully behind [former ranch employee]
Kellie Puddy and everyone else who is taking a stand for the voiceless animals.
Bethany Travers, Rosebud West
Words and no action I have contacted Flinders MP Greg Hunt about his 2013 and 2016 pre-election letterboxed literature promises to “protect Phillip Island and the Mornington Peninsula from inappropriate development”.
Any fair-minded person would surely have included [plans for] a 6000-a-year monster container ships (3000 in 3000 out) and huge container port at Hastings.
He states “we live in a wonderful part of the world and I am passionate about protecting it”.
On 26 June 2015, he stood next to [state] Op-position Leader Matthew Guy when Guy said “we believe in the Port of Hastings [container port project] totally” with later words about a non-existent ALP policy to blast Port Phillip Heads. Mr Hunt’s contribution was to state that to dredge for the container port in Western Port would “if at all, need a fraction, a scintilla of that required” to accommodate the non-existent ALP Port Phillip version.
Offi cial independent fi gures have stated a dev-astating 24 million cubic metres as a minimum.
In October 2014 Mr Hunt signed an agree-ment with Mr Guy, then planning minister in the Liberal state government, effectively handing over his powers under federal environment law to the same government which, if it had been re-elected, would already be making a huge mess of the Ramsar treaty internationally protected upper two thirds of Western Port.
Signing that agreement would possibly be the worst case of “fox in the henhouse” since the 1960s, when [then premier] Henry Bolte wanted to build a nuclear power station on French Island.
The current Liberal campaign is very big on creating “jobs and growth”, so I pointed out to Mr Hunt that Western Port’s $2 billion a year economy already supports thousands of jobs in tourism, recreational fi shing and vegetable growing. All of these would be at risk from a container port at Hastings.
Kevin Chambers, The Gurdies
Arts supporterWe thank Bruce Billson for his efforts as federal Liberal MP for Dunkley, but let's not simply transfer our allegiance to the new Liberal candi-date, particularly in light of his earlier comments on penalty rates.
We now have Sally Baillieu standing for The Arts Party, a breath of fresh air for Frankston voters. If you're locked in to one of the major party candidates you may like to show your appreciation of how the arts can enhance your lifestyle by putting number 1 against the name of Rose Godde on your Senate voting paper - The Arts Party.

Time for changeIn response to (“Don’t blame Hunt”, Letters 7/6/16) Alan Reid from Sorrento, arguments are unfortunately embedded in that last-century logic with no vision or “innovation” as the prime minister proudly trumpets. We cannot continue along the fossil fuel path, we all know that.
To reach current and proposed RET fi gures will require a signifi cant uplift and investment in solar and wind, now kicking off in north west Victoria. Infrastructure investment in transmis-sion lines and storage technology to meet load demand “when the sun don’t shine”, as he ineloquently phrases it will enable us to switch off Hazelwood, one of the worst polluting ma-chines in the world. It’s time to think of the next generation and not just the next election.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Jockey hit and killed by motor carJockey hit and killed by motor carCompiled by Melissa Walsh
WHILE walking along the road atCarrum at 7.45 on Sunday night last, John Leslie Atkins, 22, a jockey, who lived at Cherry street, Northcote, was run over by a motor car, which passed across his face, fracturing his skull, nose and jaw. He died at Homeopathic Hospital at 11 p.m. the same evening.
***MESSRS Adamson, Strettle and Co., will hold their next sale at Tanti Yards on Monday next, when they will have a good yarding of stock including milkers, springers and fat cattle, also sheep and pigs.
***THE “Wattles” Club social and dance takes place this evening in the Frankston Mechanics Hall, and a pleasant evening’s amusement is an-ticipated. The funds are in aid of the Langwarrin Recreation Hall.
***IN order to augment the funds in aid of the proposed Frankston Roll of Honor, the “Australian” Club propose holding a dance on Saturday evening, 1st JuIy, in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall.
***THE death occurred at St. Pancras’ Hospital, Frankston, on Tuesday eve-ning of Henry V. Clements who has been a patient of that institution for some weeks suffering from hemor-rhage of the lungs. His parents are residents of Williamstown.
***
AT the City Court on Tuesday, John Patrick Casey, charged with the lar-ceny, at Mordialloc, on 7th June, of drapery valued at £50, the property of the Railway Commissioners, was re-manded to appear at Frankston Court on Monday next.
***WE have been shown some excel-lent samples of paper manufactured at the Australian Paper Mills Company, South Melbourne, from canary seed Millet and the white China Millet, grown by Mr C. E. Liardet, at his oil seed Peanut Farm, Frankston.
***THE Commissioners of the State Sav-ings Bank have decided that deposi-tors who take up war loan debentures for sums from £10 to £100 may lodge such debentures at any branch of the bank for safe custody free of charge, and the interest coupons will be de-tached half yearly by the bank, the amount being placed to the deposi-tor’s credit. This will be a great con-venience to depositors, and will en-able them to invest in the war loan and draw their income without any trouble or expense.
***A MEETING of all those interested in the Frankston Mechanics’ Institute is called for Friday afternoon next, at 3 o’clock, for the purpose of discuss-ing ways and means of getting up a bazaar and fair, in aid of its funds. As the trustees went to a big expense last year in building additions to the main building, in the way of a comfortable
reading room and library, it now be-hoves the residents to do their part in defraying the cost. Since the beginning of the war the committee has been very lenient in the way of remitting rents for the use of the hall for meetings, which have been in any way connected with the various movements for the relief of our soldiers and Allies, at the front, which has led to a considerable de-crease in the annual amount raised by this means. Mrs Utber has taken on the onerous duties of honorary sec-retary to the movement and will be pleased to see a representative gath-ering of towns people at the meeting next Friday afternoon.
***AMONG the correspondence read ata meeting of the “’Wattles” Club com-mittee, held on Wednesday evening, was a letter from Mr W. M.Pearson, Hon. secretary for trips for wounded soldiers, asking if it would be possible to entertain seventy or eighty returned wounded soldiers at Frankston on July 8th. The secretary (Miss Gray) was in-structed to forward Mr Pearson a re-ply to the effect that he could depend upon a right royal welcome for the boys, from the residents of Frankston. As there is plenty of time ahead to arrange matters, there is no reason why everybody should not make it their business to do their very best to provide a couple of hours’ entertain-ment to brighten the lives, which they have offered for such a noble cause,
and many of them will risk again, and help them to forget the horrors and among their own kith and kin bring them back to their rational selves.
***THE estimated exportable surplusof wheat in Russia and Romaniais set down at 310 million bushels, but so long as the Dardanelles remain closed this wheat is securely locked up in the Black Sea, and cannot be used to meet the requirements of other countries. In addition to this Bulgaria has an exportable surplus of 11½ million bushels. On the other hand we must exclude the requirements of enemy countries. Excluding the Russian, Romanian, and Bulgarian wheat from the list and allowing for supplies which would otherwise have gone to enemy coun-tries, a computation of their surplus wheat available for export in the United States, Canada, Argentina, In-dia and Australia bring the quantity to 1010 million bushels. Whilst we have this surplus of 1.010 million bushels the effective demand is set down at from 561 to 614 million bushels, so that we have nearly double the supply of wheat on hand to meetthe demand.
***ANY Old Bones. Bones are not wasted. The chief product is glue, and among other materials which are obtained from them are soap, glycer-ine, and fertilisers. After being care-fully separated by workmen they are
soaked in a weak solution of sulphuric acid. From the soaking tanks the bones emerge white and perfectly clean. They are then placed in steam tanks, where, after being subjected to a pres-sure of steam for several hours, a trap door is opened at the bottom of the digester, as it is called and the liquid glue that has been extracted is drawn off. The liquid glue is partly evaporated and a portion is allowed to harden for commercial use as glue, and a part is refi ned and sold for gelatine for table use.
***AT the invitation of the Red Cross workers of Mt Eliza, about thirty sick and wounded soldiers came to after-noon tea on Wednesday 14th inst. The tea was given at Glen Shian, which was en fete for the occasion. The drive was gay with bunting and over the gateway a banner was displayed with ‘’Welcome to our Boys”, in red, white and blue. The workers came early, all eager to help, and were wait-ing to cheer the soldiers when they ar-rived, in motors, about 3 o’clock. They were soon comfortably seated on the verandah, enjoying the sun-shine, also the cigars and cigarettes provided, and listening with evident pleasure to the songs and gramophoneselections.

By Stuart McCulloughIT’S done. After months and months of procrastination for which no one other than myself can reasonably be held responsible, it’s fi nally fi nished. Or, depending on your point of view, it’s as fi nished as it’s ever going to be. The spare room at our place that, until now, has been a dumping ground for everything from unpacked boxes of books to low-level nuclear waste, has now been wholly transformed. It no longer has to suffer the ignominy of looking like a glorifi ed closet or one of those rooms you’d expect to see fea-tured on a ‘tenants from hell’ expose on tabloid telly. Nor does it need to be hidden from view, lest it should bring shame to the rest of the house. Not any more.
I speak, of course, of the one room of the house that belongs to me and me alone. But before you demand more details and a full-frontal room reveal, I must sound a note of caution. This is not a mere case of re-decoration. It is more a re-birth. In fact, so powerful is this extraordinary metamorphosis that it may no longer be a room in the con-ventional sense at all. Instead, it may now be a ‘man-cave’.
You ought to see it. Shelves run like veins across the walls and are stuffed full of hundreds of books and CDs. I love nothing more than to be surround-ed by them. Musical instruments lie slumped in the corners like exhausted boxers and a large desk fl oats in the middle of the room, a life raft on a sea of carpet. It looks, in a word, busy. Vi-nyl records, a picture of ‘Dogs Playing Poker’: it’s a space that defi nitely ticks
a lot of ‘man-cave’ boxes. That said, there are some obvious shortcomings that must be confronted if the place is ever going to realize its full man-cave potential.
For starters, there’s no sporting memorabilia. The plain truth is, there’s nothing within the four walls of my so-called man cave that celebrates ei-
ther my or anyone else’s athletic prow-ess in any way whatsoever. I used to have several swimming certifi cates I earned during primary school, but these have long been swallowed by the mists of time, even if I do still describe these on my curriculum vitae as ‘post graduate qualifi cations’. I do recall
collecting Scanlon’s footy cards for one season, succeeding only in secur-ing the less popular half of Carlton’s 1984 team. Even if I could fi nd those cards now, I’d resist the temptation to frame them.
It’s not that I don’t own any sporting trophies. It’s more that the only ones I was ever awarded are suitably tiny, as befi ts the scale of my achievements. I don’t think of them so much as stat-ues so much as stature; namely very, very small. Indeed, they’re the kind of awards that invite mockery rather than admiration. My sixteen-year-old nephew’s sporting trophies look like skyscrapers. Were our respective awards to get into a fi ght, his would win, gold-painted hands down. Cur-rently, my trophies reside in my fa-ther’s study, between the ostrich egg he managed to get through customs in 1962 and the souvenir Corningware that celebrates the wedding of Charles and Dianna. As odd as it may sound to say, it’s where they belong. I couldn’t possibly move them now.
Nor do I have anything in the way of hunting trophies. My room is the world that taxidermy forgot, bereft of so much as a stuffed rabbit, much less an elk or antelope. In these enlight-ened times, perhaps that’s just as well. The only thing I hunt for are bargains, but no-one stuffs and mounts a pair of discounted Explorer socks on the wall. No one. Granted, picking up three pairs of these beauties for eight bucks a pop is an achievement of some sub-stance that, in a better world, would be celebrated, but perhaps not in the man cave.
I don’t own a novelty chair, ei-ther. Be it a tractor seat welded to a crankshaft, an oversized faux gorilla hand or a piece of old growth timber, I am woefully defi cient in the area of unique seating. Currently, I’m using whatever I can grab from the dining room. An odd chair’s not the only think I’m missing. Come to think of it, I don’t have a jukebox, bar or big screen television. There’s nary a pool table or pinball machine in sight. Nor have I nailed a number plate from Tex-as, California or Utah into the plaster. The more I think about it, the more I realize just how short of the mark I am.
Perhaps that’s all right. Maybe there’s no shame to be had in falling short in the man-cave stakes. If I’m being honest, I struggle a bit with the term ‘man-cave’. Perhaps the blatant gender specifi city makes it seem too exclusory. Instead, I might use the Brady method. Brady Bunch patriarch and professional perm enthusiast Mike Brady didn’t have a man-cave. He had a den. It was a place to keep blueprints and dispense meaningful advice to children. There were no decapitated woodland creatures hanging from the wall. Just a few books, a couch that’d seen plenty of better days and a paint-ing that looked as if it might well have been souvenired from a Holiday Inn. It was a sanctuary; a place where a man (permed or otherwise) could feel safe and wear a polyester shirt underneath an oversized cardigan. It’s time to sur-render my man-cave aspirations. I am, it seems, a den kind of guy. So be it.

PENINSULA LEAGUEBy Toe Punt BONBEACH is just half a game outside of the top fi ve after a convincing win against neighbour Edithvale-Aspendale in Peninsula League on Saturday.
The Sharks came from 12 points down at quar-ter time and three points down at the last change to win 13.9 (87) to 9.9 (63).
Luke Damon was at his vintage best for the Sharks with three goals while Chris Bryan and Shane McDonald played important roles with two goals each to help seal the victory.
While the win brought the Sharks to within half a game of fi fth spot, the loss came at a cost for the Eagles.
Edithvale went into the clash with fi ve wins from seven matches and really could have con-solidated its place in the top bracket with a win.
The Eagles would have gone within percentage of second place and would have locked them into the top fi ve.
However, the loss throws the Eagles back into the mix with the likes of Karingal, Seaford and Bonbeach, who are all vying for the fi nal two places in the fi ve.
Bonbeach coach Steve Hughes said it was “probably” his side’s best performances for the year.
“Our win against Mt Eliza was pretty good too. You don’t play badly against them and win,” said Hughes.
“It was a very important game in the context of our season. The win puts us right back in the mix.
“We changed it up a bit last week and Chris Bull (former league champion) took training and reminded the boys of how long it has been since we have beaten Edithvale (about four years).
“Chris stripped things back and the boys really enjoyed it.
“We had to be a little patient throughout the match and wait for things to open up a bit, which they did for us in the last quarter.
“We were minus 28 from stoppages in the pre-vious two weeks and we needed to get better in that area.
“We threw in some older heads in Gary Car-penter and Mark Tyrrell, along with Jackson Ca-sey and Dylan Jones and they did the job for us in there,” said Hughes.
The only dampener of a solid day for Bonbeach was the injury to Mick Alexander.
Alexander dislocated and broke his elbow after falling awkwardly in a rucking contest.
“The boys were pretty fl at about it. Mick is a re-ally popular and highly respected person around the club,” said Hughes.
“He’s predominantly been a reserves player with us but we spoke to him at the end of last season and told him that we thought he could be a regular senior player.
“Mick dropped more than 10kg in the pre-sea-son and has been a great support for ‘DJ’ (Dylan Jones) this season.
“We’ll lose him for the season I suspect but he loves the game and has a real thirst for knowl-edge – he’ll be back bigger and better next sea-son,” said Hughes.

NEPEAN LEAGUEBy Toe Punt HOW quickly the wheel can turn in our great game.
A fortnight ago, Rye Football Club was on its knees after being thrashed by Frankston Bombers. That loss came on the back of a drubbing against Sorrento and a last quarter capitulation against Red Hill the week before.
Rye was on struggle street.Fast forward a couple of weeks and
the Demons have beaten top of the ta-ble Hastings and turned the tables on premiership fancies Sorrento in con-secutive weeks.
It was Rye’s fi rst win against Sorren-to at Sorrento for more than 10 years.
Wins against Hastings and Sorrento have come on the back of a convincing win against Somerville earlier in the season and a draw against Rosebud in round one.
As Rye coach Josh Moore said fol-lowing the win against Sorrento on Sat-urday, “our best is good enough to beat anyone in the competition”.
At Shark Park on Saturday, the De-mons led for the majority of the after-noon to beat its biggest foe 9.14 (68) to 8.10 (58).
It was an almost 80 point turnaround from the RPP Match of the Day be-tween these sides less than a month ago.
Nobody can dispute Moore’s claims that the Demons’ best is good enough – clearly it is.
One just wonders where the effort and application of the past two weeks was for the few weeks prior.
Surely it didn’t take an article ques-tioning the club in the The News three weeks ago to kick start the Rye season? Surely it couldn’t have been as simple as that.
On Saturday, the Rye win came on the back of some new faces in the team.
There was no question that the play-ers in the team three weeks ago weren’t getting the job done.
First gamer Luke Davies-Uniacke booted three goals for the winners and was one of the keys in the victory.
Nick Baron, who plays predomi-nantly in the twos, was important in the win. While Nathan Henley and Ryan Mullett rarely put in a bad performance.
James Appleford has been in some good form of late and together with Jimmy Jennings, they were catalysts in the victory.
Dean Millhouse also hit the score-board with a couple of majors, which is what the Demons have lacked – sup-port for Matthew Greig.
Sorrento went into the game without key players Scott Lockwood and Leigh Treeby.
The youngsters who dominated a few weeks back weren’t as up and about, al-though Josh Brigden again successfully carried out the job on Greig.
Nick Corp played a lone hand in at-tack with a couple of goals but there were no more multiple contributors.
Luke Tapscott worked hard and Ryan Potter and Tyrren head both had strong performances, while Joey Boase has settled into senior footy nicely for the Sharks.
