Salad days THE peninsula’s first weekly produce market starts at The Briars Park in Mt Martha on Tuesday 20 October. It is the idea of Rachael Koch, who grew up in Frankston, and Matt Taylor, of Mt Eliza – business and life partners who met at Woodleigh School – and will be the culmination of planning that started last summer when the couple first started talking to peninsula suppliers.

New freeway signs – at long last Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au ALMOST three years after opening in January 2013, Peninsula Link freeway will get directional and tourism signs that were omitted from the original brief for the $850 million road. The signs come courtesy of intense lobbying by federal Dunkley MP Bruce Billson and peninsula tourism officials, and will be installed in time for this “year’s peak summer holiday
period�, Mr Billson said. About $175,000 of the cost will come from a federal Coalition government grant organised by Mr Billson in what some people will see as an unfair cost burden as the freeway is a private public partnership between the Victorian government and Lend Lease. Peninsula motorists were surprised and disappointed at the lack of directional and tourism signs when the freeway opened. Tourists using the freeway were even more disappointed
when they ended up lost or on the wrong road. There were no signs on the four-lane road showing traffic where to exit to reach Baxter, Hastings and the Western Port side of the peninsula. Signs showing drivers how to get to Mt Martha were also omitted. Few tourism signs were erected. In August 2013, Mr Billson said the Coalition government would contribute $175,000 to “refresh and update the ‘Tour Peninsula’ tourist direc-

tional signage and to correct location signage errors such as omitting the Baxter township�. Last Wednesday, Mr Billson said “At last, the ‘green light’ has been given by state road authorities to install the much-needed and long-awaited Peninsula Link signs�. “Townships and ... destinations across the region will finally get the recognition they deserve,� he said. “The signs will make local population centres and key points of interest
easier for visitors to find and will help businesses.� Mr Billson said the signs would also improve driver certainty, traffic flow and township identification. In total, 32 new signs will be installed and 14 alterations made to existing signs along the freeway and its approaches between the EastLink tollway intersection north of Seaford and Mornington Peninsula Freeway at Safety Beach.

Mt Martha bathing boxes hit by vandals Steve Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au GANGS of youths drinking and carousing on Mt Martha beach broke into and damaged 33 bathing boxes overnight, 21 September. Planks and panels from the boxes were stripped off to fuel bonfires and beach chairs and furniture was stolen and later burnt or smashed. Police said three separate gangs – from Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula – caused thousands of dollars damage in the night-long spree. They said many box owners would be unaware of the damage until they visited or heard from neighbours. “It coincided with the school holidays,� Detective Senior Sergeant Nick Vallas said. “We know that lots of people saw the kids sitting around the bonfires but, strangely, no one reported the matter at the time.� The hardest hit area was South Beach, on The Esplanade. “Some boxes were just broken into while others had their furniture thrown onto the fires,� he said. “Others were quite substantially damaged.� Mt Martha bathing box ownerof nine-years Wendy Leong said vandal damage to the boxes was “par for the course�. “We had been lucky to miss out so far, but the other weekend they broke the seat on the veranda and other timber work. “They used a jemmy to force
In brief Bush food workshops THOSE interested in learning about bush foods, what they are and how they can be incorporated into a farming enterprise should attend a series of workshops next month. One will be held in Mt Martha on Sunday 18 October. The Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority, with the support of the Australian Government’s National Landcare Program, will host the workshops across the Port Phillip and Western Port region from Thursday 15 October. Regional landcare facilitator Karen Thomas said the workshops would provide information on identifying, growing and harvesting bush foods, as well as creating marketing opportunities for landholders. “Bush foods are creating a buzz among consumers and within the restaurant industry,� she said. Registration is $10 with all funds going directly to the Landcare network. Details: Ms Thomas, 0427 480 170 or email karen.thomas@ppwcma.vic.gov.au

open the door and rip off cupboards on the outside. It was just wilful damage. “We found fine glass all over the veranda which would be very dangerous for our grandchildren.� A teenage girl’s brush, comb and
purse found later were handed in to police. Mrs Leong said a neighbour next morning saw two young couples sitting on their stolen deck chairs who said they “didn’t intend to do damage�.
“Our box sustained a $400 repair bill but others were much more,� she said. “It’s the inconvenience of having to organise repairs and get someone down to do it that’s irritating.�
EARIMIL Gardens will open on Sundays 11 October and 8 November to raise money for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families. The Mt Eliza garden, at 33A Koornalla Cres, has opened for the past 22 years raising more than $1 million. But it is likely to be the final showing, as owners Reg and Elaine Smith say they are “running out of puff�. Admission is $10 and free for children. Opening times are 10.30am-4pm. Bring a picnic if desired. Tea and coffee making facilities are available.

Roundabout a waste, says resident Steve Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE $1 million being spent on roundabouts on Wooralla Drive at the St Kilda and Brighton streets intersections, Mt Eliza, is a waste of money, a resident claims. “It seems like there’s no shortage of cash floating around if the shire is planning to build two unnecessary additional roundabouts,� Greg Dixon, of Tower Rd, said. “This mad obsession with destroying roads in the name of some imaginary Black Spot program will increase the danger of this particular section of a key arterial connecting road – particularly as the visibility in both directions is already hampered by an unkempt verge. “It will do nothing to enhance the safety of pedestrians or cyclists wishing to walk or ride along the road.� Dunkley MP Bruce Billson said the Black Spot-funded works would make the road safer. It comes with other grants for a roundabout on Humphries Rd at Walkers Rd ($619,000) and kerbs and bike lanes on Barkly St, Mornington, at Herbert St ($181,000). “Together with $74,000 from Frankston City, the $1.94 million allocation to Dunkley roads in this round will target intersections and sections of road with significant accident and injury history,� he said.
In brief Young drivers get the message on texting STUDENTS in Year 10 at Padua College, Mornington, have developed a slogan to appear on all L-plates handed out at VicRoads Keys Please sessions across south east Melbourne. “Drive now, text later� is aimed at a generation of tech savvy road users. “VicRoads was keen to give Padua College the opportunity to come up with the new L-plate slogan as they have hosted a Keys Please session every year since 2006,� VicRoads regional director metro south east Aidan McGann said. “Having a road safety reminder on L-plates encourages the supervising driver, as well as the learner, to think about the message.� The Keys Please program is a free 45-minute information session for students about how to use the learning-to-drive period, get 120 hours of practice up and become safe drivers. It is offered to all Victorian secondary schools. “The sessions are held at 165 schools, meaning about 20,000 Year 10 students will receive the L-plates with the new message,� he said. To organise a free Keys Please session call VicRoads, 13 11 71. The L-plates are sponsored by 13CABS.
Where’s the data? Mt Eliza resident Greg Dixon says the Wooralla Dr roundabout is a waste of money. Picture: Yanni
The Wooralla Drive and Humphries Rd roundabout projects are designed to reduce collisions involving motorists, cyclists and pedestrians due to excessive speed. The Barkly St project will ensure drivers recognise the Herbert St intersection through improved sight distance. “The chosen projects represent
works that deliver the highest benefit to the community for the funds involved,� Mr Billson said. “I have long been advocating for funding to improve safety on local roads, particularly in Mt Eliza where there has been some troubling motorist and pedestrian safety concerns – unfortunately involving fatalities.�
Mr Dixon asked: “Where’s the data supporting the argument for either or both, and when will we get our walking/cycling track? “They have obviously never used the road and I have never seen an accident there and I use the road every day. “I think so much more could have been done with the money.�

Continued from Page 1 Mr Billson said there had been an “arm-wrestle over which tourist destinations were judged by VicRoads to be ‘regionally significant’. Signs will point to Frankston Arts Centre, Peninsula Aquatic and Recreational Centre in Frankston, McClelland Sculpture Park, and the Mornington Peninsula wine region�. In January he said there had been “unacceptable delays� in getting the signs installed. “This has been an exasperating experience.� Mr Billson said he was told
signs had not been installed during freeway construction because they were not included in the original contract between the state government and Southern Way [Lend Lease] consortium. The PPP contract will have to be altered to reflect the installation of the signs. In 2013, Mr Billson blamed the state Labor government for not including a comprehensive signs plan when it signed off on the private public partnership with the freeway builder, which was managed by Linking Melbourne Authority.
THE 80km/h speed restrictions on Peninsula Link freeway near the Baxter twin freeway service centres will revert to 100km/h when the northbound servo is opened, says a Peninsula Link spokeswoman. The southbound servo opened in late July but the speed limit on the freeway remains at 80. In July, a spokesman for service centre owner AA Holdings said it was hoped the northbound centre would be “ready by December�. The two centres are costing AA Holdings about $30 million including two new lanes on a freeway bridge as well as on and off ramps. The final task at the northbound centre will be to asphalt the entry and exit ramps, work which is weatherdependent. The spokeswoman said it was hoped the speed limit could be returned to 100 before holiday traffic began building in December. Southbound traffic has been required to travel at 80 either side of the service centre since it opened. An evening peak bottleneck can occur, but this is minimised by many drivers who ignore the 80 limit. Restoration of the 100 limit will be vital to traffic flow, according to one regular user. “It doesn’t take much to clog it up,� the woman commuter said. “The 80 restriction could be a big problem if it is not lifted by December, especially on the southbound side for traffic heading down to the peninsula. “I can just imagine the snarls that cars towing boats and caravans rejoining the freeway from the service centre
will cause. The exit road seems too short for traffic to get back up to highway speed before they need to merge,� she said. The length of the exit ramps is controversial as Mornington Peninsula Shire called for an investigation into its length in 2013 before then planning minister Matthew Guy approved a scaled-down version of the twin centres in February 2014. The council had earlier knocked back the centres, a decision later confirmed by the state planning tribunal VCAT. Objectors and shire officers said the southbound ramp was not long enough for trucks and towing vehicles to attain a safe speed to rejoin the freeway. “The road safety audit conducted by the service station operators, AA Holdings, stipulates that the speed limit at both service centres should remain at 80km/h until the final stage of asphalting on the ramps is complete,� the spokeswoman said. Peninsula Link, owned by Lend lease, opened on 18 January 2013. Its use peaks over summer, with an average 53,560 trips on all road sections, according to the company. The busiest section is between Frankston-Dandenong and Skye roads, with about 22 million trips in 2014. On several occasions the entire freeway has come to a standstill, notably during the Christmas Day–New Year’s Day period of 2014-15. Being only two lanes in both directions, road accidents can create chaos, especially on the southbound section. David Harrison and Mike Hast

Mum not giving up on blanket
Cliff rescue after fall:
A LANGWARRIN man, 17, was rescued by police helicopter after he fell down a Mt Martha cliff, 2pm Monday last week, and sustained an ankle injury. The Police Air Wing winched him to safety from the bottom of a cliff opposite Margeurita Av. His friend, 17, also from Langwarrin, stayed with the injured man until help arrived. He was picked up from the beach by the Coast Guard.
Nursing home raided Steve Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au RESIDENTS at a Mt Eliza nursing home slept on as their lodgings were raided by thieves last weekend. Mornington’s Detective Senior Sergeant Nick Vallas said thieves entered 20 separate units at the Osborne Ave premises and pilfered small items, such as iPads and mobiles, cash and jewellery, from eight of the units. None of the elderly residents was disturbed in the overnight raids. “There were no confrontations,”
Detective Vallas said. “Nothing of great value was stolen.” But the sense of violation felt by the residents can cut deep. “They feel threatened and violated in these circumstances,” he said. “It’s especially annoying when thieves prey on the elderly.” Detective Vallas said Mornington crime prevention officers had visited the home to advise on improved security measures. Anyone with information is asked to call Mornington police, 59781400.
MT MARTHA mum Libby Turnbull is at her wit’s end having lost an heirloom blanket made by her great grandmother, and is seeking public help in finding it. “My great grandmother knitted the blanket for me when I was born and the last time I remember seeing it was in Mornington shopping centre,” Mrs Turnbull said. “The blanket is very sentimental to my family. Mum wrapped me in it when I came home from hospital and I have used it for my two baby girls as well.” The knitted lavender blanket has a cream trim around the edge. “I realised it was missing about a week ago as I had just assumed it was in the baby’s pram. I turned the house upside down, visited the police station and all the shops I had been to in the last couple of weeks,” she said. “I ransacked the house, the car, the pram and even looked in strange places that my two-year-old might have hidden it, but no luck. It’s a total mystery. “It might sound silly but it feels like a death in the family. I have always been so careful with it and can’t believe it has gone missing.” Mrs Turnbull says she thinks she has come to terms with not seeing it again – but still holds hope for a miracle, putting her plight on social media and reaching out to the Mornington Peninsula community for assistance. If anyone has seen the blanket or has any information about it, please call 0438 754 929. Snug as a bug: Mum Libby Turnbull is hoping for the return of her missing heirloom.

Shire calls for art gallery plan I like this one: Design session participants were Harper Thornell, Scouts Victoria chairman John de Wijn, group leader Helen Lulofs, Dave Thornell, RMIT head of design Peter Brew, architecture student David Walton, environmentalist Jan Oliver; front: Sicily and Daisy Thornell.

Sea Scouts assess new hall designs THE 2nd Mornington Sea Scouts are assessing designs for a new hall that will cater for growing demand from potential scouts well into the century. The club, formed in 1953, held a design session Thursday at which RMIT’s architecture department put forward ideas for a much-needed new building. Club president David Thornell said the troop was “bursting at the seams” with new members, and having to turn away five or six applications each week. “We have 70 members and are the second biggest Sea Scouts troop in Victoria. We are in desperate need of a new hall to ensure future growth.” The 2nd Morning Sea Scouts leader Helen Lulofser had helped the club
win awards for youth membership and participation, he said, ensuring even greater demand for places. “However, due to the state of our hall, we are unable to take on more children and Helen is getting about five requests a week from local families wanting to join.” A year ago Mr Thornell approached several universities with the idea of working together to produce suitable designs, or ideas, for a new clubhouse. Following on from this the troop would take the next steps of seeking support from Scouts Victoria, Mornington Shire, local community and State Government for funds for a new hall. “RMIT’s architecture department
agreed to the challenge and developed a Design Studio unit in which their students would participate,” he said. Their ideas and designs formed the basis of Thursday’s design session, which heard feedback and concerns which the students would then incorporate into proposed designs. “This is also a great opportunity to see what can be possible for the community as a whole,” Mr Thornell said. “I challenged them to see if they could align their design to a number of grant applications that are currently available.” The current Sea Scout hall, the SSS Seafire, is on the beachfront at Scouts beach, next to Mothers beach, Mornington. It caters for Joeys, Cubs, Scouts and Venturers.
Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au THERE is “movement at the station” of Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery with the shire last week advertising for a “concept design and landscape precinct plan for the redevelopment and expansion” of the peninsula’s premier art centre. The shire’s advertisement in the tender section of The Age stated: “The design should facilitate a good public environment for the community users and visitors, through the application of best design practises [sic]. “Consultants will also develop a business case and project delivery plan for the redevelopment and providing [sic] a detailed and wellsupported case for investment in the project by government and potential private investors.” Tenders close on 16 October. The advertisement restarts a process that has stalled several times since 2007 when expansion was first mooted, and the shire started a process to redevelop Civic Reserve including expansion of its art gallery. Stage one of Civic Reserve redevelopment was completed in 2014 and
opened on 11 December. Mainly for sport, it cost $8.5 million and included doubling the size of the reserve’s recreation centre for gymnastics and table tennis as well as a new home for Mornington Tennis Club (12 courts and clubrooms), two multi-purpose rooms, a fitness studio, kiosk, internal and external social areas, upgraded car park, and landscaping. Three years ago, it was feared the shire’s proposed $40 million plus aquatic centre at Rosebud would take the lion’s share of the capital works budget for several years and stall developments such as the gallery. The aquatic centre is on hold while the shire again looks at potential sites. The art gallery started life in 1969 as Mornington Peninsula Arts Centre in an old house in Vancouver St, Mornington, later demolished and now a car park behind the library and shire office. It moved to the council-owned Victorian era house Oak Hill on Mornington-Tyabb Rd in 1971. The existing gallery in Civic Reserve was built in 1991 and opened by then Labor premier John Cain. One of the driving forces behind the gallery was the late artist, art critic and author Alan McCulloch of Shoreham, who was its director 1970-1992.

Piaf and Dietrich in song THE premiere of a new Australian show, Edith and Marlene, is at Beleura House in Mornington 1.303pm Thursday 29 October. It has been written by acclaimed Melbourne pianist Alan Kogosowski, a world expert on Chopin, for his friend Melbourne mezzo-soprano Galit Klas (both pictured), who has been described as singing with the same conviction and sincerity as “The Little Sparrow”, Edith Piaf, who was a close friend of Marlene Dietrich. (The German singer and actress was Piaf’s matron of honour at her wedding in 1952.) Kogosowski and Klas first performed at Beleura in June for a National Trust event, Kogosowski
playing one of Beleura’s two 102key Stuart & Sons Huon pine grand pianos, and Klas bringing tears to many eyes with her final song, a stirring rendition of Piaf’s signature song Non, je ne regrette rien (No, I regret nothing). Places are limited. Bookings: 5975 2027 (9.30am-4pm Tues-Fri), info@ beleura.org.au or www.beleura.org.au

Nature shows off her glory at The Briars LOOKING for something different to do during the school holidays? Bring the family for a walk at The Briars wildlife sanctuary, enjoy a picnic or use the free electric barbecues. Mt Martha homestead on 230 hectares is steeped in local history, flora and fauna. Visitors with cameras and binoculars can collect a walk map and bird identification brochure from the visitors centre. The bird hides are close to the visitors centre, which is an easy walk along boardwalks and suitable for wheelchairs. Reed warblers are now calling, and swamp harriers are regularly seen. These past few weeks the birds have been prominent. Many species are pairing up or competing noisily with one another, checking tree hollows and other nesting sites, staff say. One of the eastern grey kangaroos is carrying a joey in her pouch and still has last year’s youngster with her. Two swamp wallabies are regularly seen in the wetland area sleeping in the sun, eating a large variety of shrubs and plants or just having a scratch. The four black swan cygnets continue to grow, watched closely by the adults –especially with the arrival of the swamp harrier as it glides through the wetlands looking for food. Both swan parents were seen pulling up plants from under the water for their cygnets to feed on. The cygnets are now about seven weeks old. Walkers have also seen echidnas in the sanctuary. Thanks to all the rain, young, fresh bracken is growing. It’s a favourite food of emus and wallabies. The

hedge wattle – a prickly variety of acacia – is in full flower. It provides shelter and refuge for small woodland birds. Sundews can be seen during a walk. These small, carnivorous, perennial herbs trap insects on sticky hairs on their leaves. Those interested in local birdlife will enjoy Mornington Peninsula branch of Birdlife Australia’s “What Bird is That”, 9am-1pm, Sunday 25 October. This free event will include guided bird walks, theatrette presentation, bird displays, information table, a chance to speak to bird experts and morning tea. The starting point is the visitors centre. Visitors are welcome to wander around the historic homestead, gardens and other outbuildings, or relax in the garden. There is no charge to walk around the outside of the homestead and gardens. A guide is usually on duty at the historic homestead on Sundays,
with tours 10.30am-4pm. Buy ticket at the visitors centre: $7 adult, $5 concession, $3 child or $14 family. There is no charge for National Trust members. The Briars wildlife area was closed until last week to eradicate the remaining rabbits, and a southern bandicoot program will begin soon. Programs being offered at The Briars include a junior ranger program, call 5974 3686, ranger guided spotlight walks, 5974 3686, and Animalia Wildlife Shelter possum workshop, 0435 822 699.

Peninsula eyes on WA incinerator tests David Harrison david@mpnews.com.au FIVE Western Australian councils are keen to see results of trials of an alternative waste treatment plant that includes an incinerator that generates electricity. The plant is designed to handle 33,000 tonnes of municipal solid waste a year for the five member councils, plus waste from the City of Stirling. Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors voted on 14 September to send all shire waste off the peninsula to landfill but to continue a commitment to alternative waste technology, which is generally understood to include incineration of some domestic waste. The shire was forecast to send just more than 23,000 tonnes of waste to landfill in 2014, indicating that a plant the size of the one being built in Perth could deal with shire waste and take about 10,000 tonnes from an adjoining municipality. The World Bank estimates that, globally, the volume of municipal solid waste will rise in the next decade by nearly 70 per cent to 2.2 billion tonnes annually. In Victoria the state government has for some years encouraged recycling and recovery by imposing a landfill levy on councils. The five WA councils are members of the Western Metropolitan Regional Council group, which covers Perth
suburban Claremont, Cottlesloe, Mosman Park, Peppermint Grove and Subiaco – some of Perth’s most upmarket areas. They “aspire for a world in which waste is not a problem but an opportunity”. The plant has been built by AnaeCo Ltd, which describes itself as “a listed Australian technology developer and designer of advanced resource recovery and recycling systems”. It will recycle 75 per cent or more of household waste previously destined for landfill or incineration into valuable resources, AnaeCo states. This is slightly higher than the shire’s 2010 forecast of 70 per cent diversion from landfill by 2014. The WA plant’s output includes biogas, “mature organic fertiliser”, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics and glass plus nearly a megawatt of electricity from a gas-fired generator that powers the plant, with excess power fed back into the grid. The WA government wants an end to landfills, or tips. as early as 2020, according to a Perth newspaper. Many Perth councils are turning to Waste to Energy (W2E) plants, which either burn waste or use other technology to convert it to energy. The AnaeCo plant is six kilometres from Perth CBD. It is owned by investment funds. Disclosure: The writer does not own shares in AnaeCo. The company was trading at 0.002 cents per share on 30 September.
Aaron’s catch tops the scale WHAT’S claimed to be a Victorian record blue fin tuna was caught just outside the Heads by a Mornington angler Wednesday. Abalone diver and keen fisherman Aaron Crocombe hooked his 163.65kg catch using a Pakula Mouse lure 9.30am and had it in the boat 20 minutes later. The regular big gamer – a member of Snapper Point Angling Club - was with mates on a Pro-line Charters boat out of Sorrento when the fish struck. “I knew it was a big one but it’s hard to know how big until you get it in the boat,” he said. “We put it up against another tuna already on board and realised it was a beauty. I was using a harness and I’m still a little sore.” Fishing since he was “knee high…” – and a serious game angler since 2009 – Mr Crocombe isn’t one to rest on his laurels: he was packing Thursday for a trip to tuna-haven Robe, South Australia, “where the big ones are”. Snapper Point Angling Club’s John Beasy said the tuna was the first caught from a boat out of Sorrento. He told The News of another fishy story: “The story goes that a larger one was hooked, fought for two hours, broke the rod and was lost at the boat the previous Sunday”. Mr Crocombe is happy his was the one that didn’t get away. Stephen Taylor Record haul: Mornington angler Aaron Crocombe couldn’t hide his smile when he landed this possibly-record-breaking blue fin tuna Wednesday.

Former shire CEO wins port job Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au
Loving care: Volunteers Frances Adam and Jenny Baker use their skills to manage blooms at the Mornington Botanical Rose Gardens. Picture: Garry Sissons
Rose gardeners get to work AFTER producing award-winning and colourful rose blooms for nine years, the Mornington Botanical Rose Gardens soil was found to need rejuvenation. Always willing to help, about 40 volunteers stripped the stems and applied a reconditioning agent to the soil. They then laid a fresh layer of
pine bark over the beds. It’s been a big year for the gardens which was awarded the 2015 World Federation Society Award of Garden Excellence. The award will be presented at a function on 12 November. The gardens are in the civic reserve on the corner of Dunns and Mornington-Tyabb roads, Mornington.
More than 4000 roses are in 86 beds surrounded by native trees and shrubs. The gardens are cared for and maintained by volunteers, sponsors and Mornington Peninsula Shire Council. They are open seven days a week and admission is free.
THE shire’s former CEO Michael Kennedy has been appointed interim CEO of the Port of Hastings Development Authority following the resignation of Mike Lean last week. Mr Lean has taken a job in the transport industry in Geelong near where he lives. He was appointed head of the revamped port authority in February 2013 when the Baillieu Coalition government decided to begin long-term planning for an expanded container port at Hastings, which was due to open as early as 2025. In April 2013, the former ports minister (and new premier) Denis Napthine announced $110 million over four years for logistics, scientific, economic benefit and other studies. (Former premier Ted Baillieu had resigned on 6 March.) The port authority lost funding late last year when the ALP won office and downgraded the expansion plans. In a statement, authority chairman Yehudi Blacher said Mr Lean had “brought outstanding leadership to the role and a genuine desire to advance the future of the Port of Hastings for Victoria. A strong feature of his tenure has been his genuine commitment to transparent engagement with the community in relation to the future of the port”. Ports minister Luke Donnellan said
New role: Michael Kennedy.
he “appreciated [Mr Lean’s] work in repositioning the focus on the Port of Hastings”. Mr Blacher also announced the appointment of Michael Kennedy. “Dr Kennedy was until recently the CEO of the Shire of Mornington Peninsula. Dr Kennedy brings a wealth of public and private sector knowledge to the authority with particular expertise in local government management and the transport and shipping industries,” Mr Blacher said. Mr Donnellan welcomed the appointment. “I look forward to working with Michael during his period as interim CEO.” Dr Kennedy was shire CEO from 1999 till November 2014, almost 16 years. In August 2014, the shire’s 11 councillors told him they would be advertising his job for the first time since his appointment in 1999. He decided to apply but did not make the short list and quit.

Peninsula’s first weekly produce market
THE peninsula’s first weekly produce market starts at The Briars Park in Mt Martha on Tuesday 20 October. It is the idea of Rachael Koch, who grew up in Frankston, and Matt Taylor, of Mt Eliza – business and life partners who met at Woodleigh School – and will be the culmination of planning that started last summer when the couple first started talking to peninsula suppliers. Discussions with the shire, which owns and runs The Briars, started in April and the lease was signed last week. Ms Koch said Briars head ranger Jarrod Ruch had “been amazing as the market fits in with the Briars ethos” and area councillors Bev Colomb and Anne Shaw had been supportive. Known formally as the Briars Community Produce Market, features will include all suppliers no more than 40km away, zero waste, no plastic (although Ms Koch conceded meat
might have plastic packaging), and no charge for parking. Calico bags made in Australia will be on sale for $5. They have set up a not-for-profit structure and will put earnings back into the market including workshops in summer as well as toward projects at The Briars. The couple is hoping for 20 stallholders at the first market offering vegetables, fruit, coffee, wine, bread, olive oil and honey. “We’re looking for eggs and meat,” Ms Koch said. Seed money for the project came from French waste management multinational Suez Environnment, which made 39 grants nationally this year. The couple applied for a $2400 grant but Suez liked their idea so much it doubled the grant. Details: 0478 536 081 or briarsmarket@gmail. com Mike Hast
Squash champ ready to return serve THE Victorian Squash Country Individual Championships will be held on October 10 and 11 at the Tonic Squash & Gym Centre and Labor candidate for Dunkley Peta Murphy will be defending her title. Ms Murphy won the women’s title last year and hopes to put in a good effort at this year’s event. “I have been playing squash since I was 12, and play in the Mornington Peninsula pennant league for the Dromana club, having played state grade for Victoria in the past,” said Ms Murphy, who works as a barrister. “Last year was the first time I have won that title, but had won the over 35 Australian Masters Championship, and the US Masters for 35 years and over in 2012.” While her preparation for the event has been minimal, Ms Murphy is going full steam ahead in the last week to get ready. “I have been coming off a really long layoff with injury but am back now and working to prepare for the event this week,” she said. “By hook or by crook I am going to get myself there to compete.” The squash championship is being held at Tonic Squash and Gym, 50 Collins Road, Dromana.

Trouble at peninsula heritage icon Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au A CHANGE in the way the National Trust manages its four historic properties in the region has triggered the resignation of McCrae Homestead’s part-time manager and nine of its 10 volunteers. The homestead in Beverley Rd, McCrae, is Victoria’s oldest original timber house, built in 1844 on Arthur’s Seat Run, the largest lease in the fledgling Port Phillip colony. It is one of few original pioneer property on the peninsula open to the public. Its historical value is enhanced by the diaries, journals, music books and paintings left by the homestead’s designer and original resident, Georgiana McCrae. Manager Sharon Bowen resigned in late August after 21 years at the property and her departure saw nine of 10 volunteers quit. Volunteers guide visitors, and clean and maintain the house, visitor centre and gardens. Judy Walsh, chair of the peninsula branch of the trust, told The News the
Time out: McCrae Homestead manager Sharon Bowen has left after seven years in the role and most volunteers have departed with her. The National Trust is calling for new volunteers. Picture: Yanni
organisation had appointed a regional manager, Cara Simpson, earlier in the year to look after its four properties – McCrae Homestead, Endeavour Fern Gully at Red Hill, The Briars Park at Mt Martha (jointly managed with Mornington Peninsula Shire), and Mulberry Hill in Baxter. “The trust is doing things differently nowadays with more attention paid to things like occupational health and safety,” Ms Walsh said. “We have to bring our systems into the 21st century.” Ms Walsh said Cara Simpson was a museum-trained curator with a background in heritage property management. “After 21 years, including seven as manager, Sharon Bowen has decided to move on to other things. I believe she is considering starting her own business. There is no doubt that Sharon has made a magnificent contribution to heritage by her commitment for which she was recently awarded the Mornington Peninsula Individual Heritage Award. “The homestead guides have made a collective decision not to adopt a different style of management, as is their prerogative, but unfortunately the consequences of that action makes it immediately difficult to keep the homestead operating fully. “It is regrettable as the guides take with them their very valuable service and knowledge. Naturally in such circumstances there is a small hiatus in opening times in the interim until new
recruitment measures are implemented. Meanwhile the homestead has just recorded a very strong attendance of group bookings in September so I can justifiably say the homestead is neither closed nor mouldering.” Ms Walsh said a new manager would not be appointed at McCrae. Former McCrae Homestead volunteer John Snellgrove criticised the trust’s management style. “The trust is unable at all management levels to work with and support its volunteers,” he said. “Volunteers have become very frustrated at the unwillingness of the trust to listen and take notice of reports from simple maintenance matters to major repairs and advertising.” He said the homestead was now only open on Saturdays and Sundays afternoons although it was one of few National Trust properties to show a profit. It had previously been open on weekday afternoons as well as weekends. “Attendances have dropped because the trust doesn’t advertise the homestead,” he said. Mr Snellgrove and his wife Joan were volunteers at McCrae Homestead for many years but walked away earlier this year. He said one of his last tasks in March as a volunteer was to paint the outside of the house and its separate kitchen, which took 10 days. • Anyone who wants to volunteer at McCrae Homestead can contact 9656 9800 (office hours).

Luke Batty’s death ‘not foreseeable’ Steve Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A CORONER’S inquest into the death of Tyabb boy Luke Batty – and the circumstances leading up to the tragedy – has found that it could not have been predicted. Judge Ian Gray said in a 111-page finding released on Monday that the 11-year-old’s death “was not reasonably foreseeable by anyone – including his mother, Rosie Batty”. But Mr Gray noted that circumstances leading up to the event were exacerbated by “a failure to engage [his father Greg] Anderson in the family violence system and make him accountable for his actions”. He also stated: “Luke’s death, from the practicable point of view, was not preventable from the time he entered the cricket nets to practice with his father.” The Flinders Christian Community College boy was killed by Mr Anderson after cricket training at Tyabb reserve in February last year – an event described by the Coroner as the “tragic death of a young life full of promise”. Mr Anderson was shot by police and died later in hospital. Mrs Batty was at the ground at the time and, after querying her son as to his feelings about being left alone with his father, agreed later she “knew he never believed his dad would ever hurt him, by physically hurting him”. She said she supported Luke having a relationship with his father. Mr Gray found that Mr Anderson had murdered his son, and that the death was preceded by years of fam
Luke Batty
ily violence perpetrated by him on Luke and his mother. He said he was unable to determine the reason for the killing, but noted from Mrs Batty’s evidence that Luke was growing older and wished to withdraw from his father, and that Mr Anderson realised this and wanted to exert control over his son. Evidence to the Coroner that Mr Anderson had a delusional disorder was accepted, but without evidence from a full psychiatric assessment it was found that “no finding can be made with certainty about whether Mr Anderson suffered from any particular mental illness or how he might have been treated”. Mr Gray added: “No person or agency could have reasonably been expected to foresee that Mr Anderson would be that rare perpetrator, nor Luke the rare victim, of a violent filicide.” Chelsea police could have detained Mr Anderson after they spoke to him at a residential address about an alleged violent incident three weeks before he murdered his son but were
unaware of five warrants out for his arrest at the time. The coroner noted: “The Chelsea police officers were not aware of the unexecuted warrants because they were not on LEAP. This was a major system failure and yet another lost opportunity to bring Mr Anderson to account.” LEAP is Victoria Police’s Law Enforcement Assistance Program used by police officers to log incident reports. Mr Gray did note Mr Anderson could have been released on bail by 12 February - the day of Luke’s death - even if he had been arrested by Chelsea police. Mr Gray made 29 recommendations, including that the State of Victoria seek to accurately identify a person’s risk of being the victim of family violence, and a perpetrator’s risk of repeating family violence. Others referred to whether greater weight should be given to the victim’s own level of fear in assessing the risk posed to her and her children. Mr Gray welcomed an expected overhaul of Victoria Police’s methods in treating family violence cases, including the roll out of a Risk Assessment and Management Panels to better assess risk, in the aftermath of the tragedy. He also recommended that all agencies within the family violence system be “sufficiently supported” to provide training and professional development so they can provide realistic and effective violence risk assessments. He described Ms Batty as a compelling witness who clearly was a “loving, careful and thoughtful mother”. “Her decisions were completely motivated by her deep love for her son.
Battery theft: Police have released these still images of a man who they believe may be able to assist with their investigation.
Battery pack theft sparks police hunt POLICE want to speak to a man over the theft of a battery pack worth $2600 from the Hoyts cinema complex in Frankston this month. Investigators have been told the man attended the Wells St complex around 7.40pm on Saturday 19 September. Once inside, he spoke to staff and claimed to be a construction worker who had left some of his tools in the main function room at the complex. The man went to the function room where it is believed he stole a $2600 battery pack left in the room by an actual construction worker who was
returning to work in the room that weekend. Police have released the below still images of a man who they believe may be able to assist with their investigation. The man is described as being aged in his 40s, Caucasian, light-coloured hair with a bald patch on the top of his head and a grey beard. He was wearing dark jeans, a white t-shirt and a black unzipped jacket. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or see crimestoppersvic.com.au

SIX shops, owned by one family estate, at 428 to 432 Nepean Highway, Frankston have sold to property investors at auction for $6,118,000. The sale represents an average yield of 5.73% with all shops leased to long standing tenants; Cashmart, Maurice Blackburn Lawyers, Lingwah Restaurant, Ginseng Restaurant, Tandoori Dawaat Restaurant and The Paintspot. Director of Nichols Crowder, Michael Crowder, who marketed the property and conducted the auction on the day explained that with significant government and private investment coming into the area, this will further underpin the properties growth and potential well into the future. Mr Crowder also explained that four of the six tenants had been in possession for over 30 years and that there was rarely a vacancy at rental prices deemed modest. “There are good prospects for rental growth in the future.” He said. “The investment market in Frankston, and the Mornington Peninsula is very strong, in this low interest rate environment.”

Monkey bikes ban support Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au LETTERS will be sent to Frankston residents to reiterate monkey bikes are banned from public roads and parks in the wake of the Carrum Downs fatality in which mother-of-two Andrea Lehane was killed. The letter will outline the fatal collision on Wednesday 23 September and warn of serious consequences for those caught riding monkey bikes on public roads or footpaths. Penalties to be imposed on riders – including the possibility of their bikes being confiscated and crushed for scrap metal – will be listed in the correspondence from council. Ms Lehane was severely injured while walking on a pedestrian crossing outside the shopping centre and her life support was switched off two days later. Cr Glenn Aitken said the letter would urge residents to report monkey bike riders to the council’s Local Laws department so officers can swoop and fine the offenders. Councillors and officers during the week had even considered financially rewarding those dobbing in monkey bike riders, but this was abandoned as not being feasible. “The random nature of it has touched everyone,” Cr Aitken said. That emotion in the community was seen on Sunday night last week (27 September) when thousands of wellwishers gathered at Carrum Downs Regional Shopping Centre with Ms Lehane’s husband James and children, aged three and four, in a vigil to celebrate and mourn her life. Cr Aitken described the vigil as “very moving”. “People came from far and wide,” he said. The strong community support for the Lehane family continues to grow. A crowdfunding campaign to raise money for the Lehane family topped $51,000 late last week. Carrum Downs Regional Shopping Centre management reportedly pledged $25,000 to help as part of a fundraising

drive among centre traders. A fund has been established through Bendigo Bank to help the family. Donations can be made at any Bendigo Bank branch to The Lehane Family Trust and are tax deductible. Frankston mayor Cr Sandra Mayer said the regular fortnightly meeting with police on Monday last week confirmed community awareness and education about monkey bikes is “vitally important”. “Council and Victoria Police officers discussed the recent tragic event that involved the illegal use of monkey bikes and the success of the ongoing strategies in place that have resulted in numerous monkey bikes being seized and crushed over the past few years,” she said. “We will need to work together to get the word out that monkey bikes are unsafe. And parents will need to realise that everyone, in particular children, are unsafe riding monkey bikes in public as they have less awareness of risks and limited knowledge of road rules.” Council’s community development director Gillian Kay said council will impound illegal monkey bikes and owners will be charged a release fee of $757. Bikes will be impounded for six months for a first offence and 12 months for a second or subsequent offence. Riders of unregistered motorcy-
cles may also be charged with being unlicensed and having an unroadworthy vehicle. “In addition, we are writing to the Minister for Police and Emergency Services expressing our concern and seeking more support to address the issue,” she said. Social media was scathing about the earlier lack of police response to their complaints about hoons riding monkey bikes. Many claimed to have been laughed at or ignored. Frankston resident Tony Martin said he “gave up” calling police after five attempts. “All the response I got was that they were ‘going to send a car around’ but nothing came of it. “They won’t follow up on kids.” Senior Sergeant Ron Barbury, of Carrum Downs police, said calls to police were “always attended to” but those deemed to be not as serious as others are pushed down the list. “They are always attended to, either by patrols or by catching the offenders,” he said. “The decision [of which call to attend to first] is made by a supervisor.” He said an emphasis on community awareness and educating offenders, and their parents, was a key to solving the problem. “The parents are the ones who purchase these bikes which are prohibited under law,” he said. Senior Sergeant Barbury said
Frankston authorities had achieved “enormous success” in highlighting the dangers of monkey bikes. Frankston was the first council – in 2007 – to ban the bikes and have offender’s bikes crushed. “Everyone else is looking at Frankston now to see what it is doing now because it leads the way on the issue. Then it’s up to us [police] to enforce the law.” The Carrum Downs man charged with knocking down Mrs Lehane was refused bail at a hearing at a Melbourne Magistrates’ Court hearing last
Wednesday. Caleb Jakobsson, 18, is charged with culpable driving causing death, dangerous driving causing death, failing to stop after an accident, failing to render assistance after an accident, unlicensed driving and driving an unregistered vehicle. Magistrate Frank Holzer reportedly told the court Jakobsson could face a lengthy prison sentence if found guilty of culpable driving. He will reappear in the same court next year.

A selection of sustainable food choices will include free range, rare breed beef sausages, homemade vegie burgers, handmade sushi, calamari cones, vegetarian Indian food, South Gippsland ice-cream, fresh coffee and chai as well as local wines. The concept of the sustainability fair has been developed by Balnarring Primary School community and, according to Pea Saunders, wetlands and sustainability coordinator, Balnarring Primary School, the response for the second fair has been “overwhelming”. “We held the first fair in 2012 and were blown away by the support for the event and this year’s is shaping up to be even bigger,” she said. “Our workshop program is exceptional, the kids’ entertainment will be full of old-fashioned fun, and we have a wonderful collection of local musicians to entertain throughout the day.” Tours of Balnarring Primary School’s wetlands will also be run during the day.

FIVE private gardens in Mt Eliza and Frankston South will be open to the public 7-8 November. The 5 Gardeners’ Gardens is an initiative of the Anglican Parish of Mt Eliza which is celebrating the 150th anniversary of the historic “little white church” on the corner of Koetong Pd and Nepean Hwy, Mt Eliza. The parish held the event in 2009, 2011 and 2013 and, according to coordinator Lyn Whelan, it was a great success. “What better way to spend a spring weekend on the Mornington Peninsula than by rambling around Mt Eliza visiting five delightful private gardens,” she said. “Take time out to smell the roses, enjoy a delicious Devonshire tea with family and friends, select a special Christmas gift, listen to the frogs or just be inspired by the ideas and creativity of these special gardeners’ gardens. “Varying in size, plantings and design, these are not “designer” gardens but are loved and developed by passionate gardeners who will be there to share their special tips and techniques with garden visitors.” Tickets lasting all weekend can be bought at any garden gate. Visitors will receive a hand-out detailing the development and plantings in each garden. The gardens are open 10am-4pm, Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 November. Tickets are $25 all gardens/$6 single
garden with children free. No dogs are allowed. Inquiries: Call 9775 3301 or visit mteliza.melbourneanglican.org.au The gardens are: 94 Old Mornington Rd, Mt Eliza (Melway 101 G10) – Bibury is named after an English village. It was developed from an original Mt Eliza land sub-division, and showcases mature trees, cottage-style plantings and potted treasures. 5 Amesbury Rd, Mt Eliza (Melway 101 J11) – This large, established and varied garden has nurtured an extended family for 23 years. Its recent focus is on sustainability in a productive vegetable plot and drytolerant plants. 4 Bellbrook Ct, Frankston South (Melway 102 C10) – Hidden joys in this diverse garden include a fern gully with frog pond, ornamental and cottage-style plantings, bush walk and dry creek bed plus fruit trees and veggies. 134 Wooralla Drive, Mt Eliza (Melway 105 G7) – The owner of this lush garden was recently awarded a special award by the Royal Horticultural Society of Victoria. It reflects her love and passion for gardening. (Note: Replaces 7 St Ives Av). 4 Seahaze Ct, Mt Eliza (Melway 105 E7) – This eclectic garden with its “curtain” of Boston ivy, vibrant bird life, linked paths and interesting artefacts invites the visitor to explore.
SPRING has sprung and so have magpies who swoop cyclists, joggers and walkers at this time of year in the mistaken belief people pose a danger to their newly born nesting offspring. Most magpie attacks are harmless apart from the shock some may feel when being swooped by the overly protective birds but some attacks cause serious injuries, especially to young children who are a vulnerable target of magpies’ ire. Those seeking to avoid any confrontation with magpies can now consult a website called Magpie Alert to see whether there have been any avian attacks in their neighbourhood. Sydney-based web designer Jon Clark says he had the idea to develop the site after he was swooped by an aggressive magpie while cycling in his hometown suburb of Bella Vista. “I got swooped while I was out on my bike and I had a look for information online and there were little bits here and there and a few little maps but nothing near where I lived,” he said. “Being a web developer by trade I just thought I would do something for everyone. It’s been going gangbusters, it really has.” People can log magpie attacks and send the information to the Magpie Alert site. In this way attack ‘hot spots’ are identified if repeat attacks are logged by several victims. Mr Clark said about 150 attacks per day are logged with Magpie Alert at this time of year and he reads every

single one to ensure they’re the real deal before the information is posted online. Any bad language about magpies at such an emotive time for the attacked is moderated by Mr Clark before comments are uploaded making the site family-friendly. The Magpie Alert shows there have been magpie attacks that caused injury in Mornington, Mt Eliza, Mt Martha, Somerville and Crib Point this year. There have also been attacks along the Peninsula Link trail in Frankston. Mr Clark said statistics collated by his site showed there have been 600 injuries nationwide this spring, accounting for about 14 per cent of overall attacks. “Anything with wheels seems to be more of a target – cyclists, young kids
on scooters or small bicycles – the magpie just seems to attack.” The web guru has put together the Magpie Alert site in his own spare time and a recent redesign has seen online traffic soar with the use of Google Maps to illustrate where attacks occur and the ability to log in to the site using Facebook and Twitter to spread messages about attack sites. Mr Clark said he may design an app for smartphones and the Apple Watch in future but “it depends how much time I get”. See magpiealert.com to view magpie attack details. The site is free to view and use. Those who find the site useful can buy the designer “a beer or two” via a voluntary donation section on the site.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
New Buick touring cars arrive in Mornington Compiled by Melissa Walsh A DANCE will be held in the Langwarrin Hall on Wednesday evening next, given by the members of the Langwarrin Social Club. *** WORD has been received by Mr G. Shepherd, of Somerville, that his son, (Wheeler Frank Shepherd) is ill in the hospital at Malta. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold their usual Somerville market on Wednesday next, when they will offer horses cattle, pigs, poultry and sundries. A good yarding is expected. *** A meeting of the Somerville Patriots’ League will be held at Somerville, in the Horticultural Hall, on Monday evening, for the purpose of electing officers, and general business. *** MR A. Rivett, of Somerville, met with a nasty accident a few days ago, while driving some sheep that were trespassing out of his paddock. He tripped and fell on his shoulder on a stump. On a visit to Dr Maxwell on Monday it was found that he had fractured the cap of his shoulder bone with partial dislocation of the joint. *** IN consequence of the cancellation of the 4.37pm train to Frankston, on Saturday, on and after today, (9th inst) the mail on that day will be due per train as under :— Mordialloc, 4.46 p.m; Aspendale, 4.50; Chelsea, 4.5 ; Carrum, 5 4; Seaford, 5.7 ; arriving at Frankston at 5.14 p.m.
*** AN illustrated lecture will be held in the Somerville Horticultural Hall, on Tuesday evening next, under the auspices of the local Red Cross Society, entitled “Wattle Time”, or “Yellowhaired September”, by A. J. Campbell Esq. The lecture will be illustrated by 70 superb views—Songs will be rendered during the evening. *** THE Peninsula Motor Garage, Pty. Ltd. notify by special advertisement that they have secured four new up to date “Buick” touring cars, and having secured the services of two first class mechanics, are prepared to execute all repairs entrusted to them. They are also agents for the Buick cars, and are prepared to sell same, the prices of which are quoted in advertisement. *** MESSRS T R. B. Morton and Son will sell at their rooms, 72 Swanston street, on Thursday next, at 3 o’clock, 155 acres at Bittern, situated two and a half miles from Bittern Railway station, opposite Seagrove Estate. Also at the same time, 55½ acres of land fronting the Narrican Creek, being Crown allotment 178, Parish of Moe, Gippsland, situate two miles from railway station. *** THE news of the death of Mr Charles Martin, of Frankston came with something of a shock to the residents as he always appeared to be a strong healthy man, and during his residence of some 8 years in the district he enjoyed the best of health. It appears that a few
days before his death he contracted a severe cold, which developed into pneumonia, from which he gradually sank and died on the 23rd, at his mother’s residence, Essendon. He leaves a wife and two sons to mourn their loss. *** THE contractor for the addition to the Mechanics’ Hall, Frankston, has finished his contract, and the building as it now stands is quite an ornament to that part of the town. The additions are done in brick with red tiled roof and consists of two large rooms in front of the old building 22ft x 21ft each, with a hall 22ft x 8ft between them. One of the rooms is intended to be used as a library, the walls of which are surrounded with shelves, on which there will be ample room to store the present library with considerable additions thereto. The second room can be used as a committee or reading room. At the rear of the building and abutting on the stage an additional room, 11ft x 14ft has also been erected, which will be found of great convenience to concert companies as a retiring room. Each of the new rooms have a fireplace in them, and gas installed, and when properly furnished will prove of great benefit both to the public and to the committee. *** VICTORIAN School Children pay for Half a Hospital. The Defense Department is establishing a Hospital at Caulfield for wounded soldiers. The Executive Committee of the Education Departments’ War Relief Fund at its recent meeting unanimously
decided to give £10,000 towards the erection of Wards, — these wards to be named “The Victorian State School Children’s Wards.” Each of these wards, 24 in all, will cost from £800 to £1000 to build and equip, so that the offer of the school is to pay for practically half the hospital. At the very least the young patriots will be providing for 300 wounded. Miss May Cox the secretary to the fund, clearly points out that the children will have a special interest in their own men, and it is certain these will not go short of comforts. From October 2nd to October 9th each school in the State will make a special effort to raise the balance of the sum voted. The week will be known as Hospital week. Last season 20,000 leeches were supplied to Melbourne hospitals by Victorian State School children, who donated the cash gained, to their School Patriotic Funds. Dr J. A. Leach organised the movement. The Doctor is now appealing for 6,000 additional leeches to him care of Teachers’ Training College, Grattan street, Carlton. He also wishes to inform frog collectors that their market is glutted, and he trusts they will turn from “frogging” to “leeching,” *** A large crowd gathered at the Somerville Stadium on Saturday night to witness the bout between the two lightweights “Wingie” Meldrum and “Queenie” Lewis, as a ding-dong “go” was expected. Meldrum entered the ring fit and
well and turned the scale at 9st 8lbs. Lewis turned it at 9st 4lbs and appeared rather nervous. J Webb acted as timekeeper, while S. Meldrum and “Pluto the Groom” were Meldrum and Lewis respective seconds. Billie Hutch was promoter, while “Bill” Lang acted in a capable manner as referee. The contest was very onesided; Meldrum landed his blows with effect, while Lewis hit out wildly (for home). However, Lewis went down in the 3rd round, and Bill Lang counted the (Euroa) Don out, and amidst cheers, declared “Wingie” the winner. *** A well-attended working bee was held at the Rosebud Recreation Reserve when new gates were placed in position and a considerable amount of clearing was done. The Committee hopes that with continued support, the reserve will be made an attractive resort for both residents and visitors. During an interval, refreshments were served by some of the ladies, whose efforts in this direction were much appreciated by the workers. Should the improvement of the Reserve be far enough advanced by the Christmas holidays, it is probable that the grounds will be “officially opened” at a Sports meeting in aid of the Rosebud Patriotic Fund, and some donations have already been promised for that purpose. “Advance Rosebud.” From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 9 October, 1915

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
The long and short of shorts By Stuart McCullough THE birds are chirping, the scent of cut grass fills the air and – low and behold – the blue sky has finally emerged from its winter hibernation. There’s no denying it: spring is finally here. Hooray! For a time it seemed as though winter would never end. As if art and real life were getting all mixed up and some kind of Game of Thrones-style epoch-enduring cold snap would be with us forever. And then, just like that, the veil was lifted and sunlight poured in. I, for one, could not be happier. Goodbye over-sized jumpers, hello t-shirts! Hats, sunglasses – I love so many of the accoutrements a warmer climate has to offer. There are limits, naturally. I know that some people love to wear shorts. I am not one of those people. As a consequence, almost no one on Earth as ever seen my legs. Rest assured for those who have imagined what they might look like, they are whiter than white and, if viewed with the naked eye, may inflict significant damage to an unprepared retina. Indeed, they’re so pale as to be nearly luminescent. In an emergency, ships could be guided to shore, using my exposed legs in place of a lighthouse. Frankly, I’m doing all of you a favour by keeping them hidden. As a result, I have never been and am unlikely to become a shorts-wearing champion. My problems with shorts began, like most problems, in childhood. While some might argue that shorts have a long (ironically enough) and proud history, the nineteen seventies must
PAGE 58
surely constitute a dark chapter that even the most ardent of short defenders must concede is a stain on their reputation. In actual fact, the seventies pretty much waged war on trousers generally, regardless of the length of leg involved. But the shorts were particularly memorable. They reached half way up your torso, almost render-

ing the need for a wedgie redundant. There was a split at the side to reveal more flesh than the hem would otherwise permit. And then there was the piping, glorious piping, swimming around the edge of the garment, framing the middle of your body. Somewhere along the line, piping went out of fashion if, indeed, it was ever in
fashion to begin with. Maybe that’s where my aversion to shorts began. Granted, I wore them at school, but always felt vulnerable. There is something inherently unnerving about shorts. They require eternal vigilance lest you should end up revealing more of yourself than you ever intended. Wearing shorts to school was something done under sufferance while wearing long pants all year round was a recipe for disaster; guaranteed to mark you out as some kind of freak. I wore shorts to conform rather than for comfort. For me, finishing school wasn’t just about reaching adulthood. It was about never having to wear shorts again. My father, however, had a different view. There are two types of adult shorts: the casual and ‘the special occasion’. The former involves pretty much anything with two leg-holes that doesn’t fall down in public. The latter is a very different beast. Possibly a warthog. Or a Wildebeest; albeit one that’s impeccably groomed but a Wildebeest nevertheless. My father was once fond of formal shorts; the kind that require a belt (preferably white) and look like they belong to a suit that comes with a Pith helmet. Were it up to my father, he would doubtless describe them as incredibly stylish. However, he has no say in that matter and I, in stark contrast, would describe his formal shorts and nothing short of horrifying. Even with the benefit of hindsight, to say nothing of extensive therapy, I cannot think of a situation where formal shorts are required. Under what circumstances is it
appropriate to wear an item of clothing with all the inbuilt pageantry of shorts with a belt and still expose your hairy kneecaps? The cold hard truth is that no such event exists. Not now. Not even in the nineteen seventies. Perhaps my father’s shorts weren’t shorts at all. Maybe they were a time machine. It just might be that when I saw my father strut out into the living room in his formal shorts, complete with belt and replete with a threat to leave the house and inflict this image on the world at large, I saw the future. This, I would have concluded, is what the future holds for me. I decided right then and there that I would do everything in my power to avoid such a fate, even if it meant strapping on a pair of 501s on a forty-degree day. Discomfort is a small price to pay. Now that the warmer months have arrived, there will be all kinds of pressure. If the weather permits, next time I’m in Tyabb, my father will drag the two inflatable boats down from the shed. Christened the ‘Canoe Reeves’ and the ‘Salma Kayak’, these two vessels will be pressed into service on the lower dam. He keeps them, I suspect, just in case he wants to go up a certain creek without a paddle. But it’s not for me. Piloting the Canoe Reeves would necessitate a change of clothes. Piloting a boat demands either short pants or flared trousers. The long and the short pants of it is that I just can’t bring myself to do it. stuart@stuartmccullough.com
The Red Hill – Merricks Rail Trail By Lorraine Aitken Tucked away in the hinterland of Red Hill is a well-worn trail that predominately follows the former train line from Red Hill South - Merricks station ground. It is popular with walkers, mountain bike riders and (to my children’s delight), horses. The 6.5km trail starts from behind the Epicurean Centre in Red Hill South on a wide dirt trail that slowly descends and takes in views across undulating farmland, vineyards and Western Port until you reach the turnaround point or coffee stop at the Merricks General Wine Store. As the name suggests the trail was formerly a train line which originally ran between Bittern and Red Hill from 1921 – 1953 to transport stock, timber, fertiliser, firewood and produce such as apples, pears and strawberries to the city markets. Although the Southern Peninsula only had an estimated population of 1,500 people in 1912, the annual turnover of 12,000 head of stock and 12,000 tons of farm produce mixed with poor roads saw the need arise for a train. In 1915 permits for the train line were granted, however it wasn’t until after World War One that works began and the line was offi-
cially opened in 1921. The advent of motor transport led to the line being unprofitable as passenger numbers declined substantially from 1929 and services were reduced until the train line eventually closed in 1953 before being dismantled in 1955. Over time a section of the train line became private property and there is a slightly steeper deviation to the original trail. The relaxed pace of this trail is perfect for families looking to enjoy the countryside without the effort of finding suitable trails for bush-
walking with strollers. Although the trail surfaces varies somewhat with gravel, dirt, crushed rock, grasses and at times mud you will still get a three wheeler pram along the trail without too much difficulty and older children will enjoy riding their bikes. When we were on the trail we spotted giant bright red toadstools among a blanket of pine needles, horses in nearby paddocks trotted up to the fence line to greet us, some cows were enjoying the lush pasture, wild rabbits that seemed fairly tame,
rows of vines, an array of native flowers, locals enjoying a stroll with their dogs and a few horse riders that stopped to say hello before trotting on down towards the equestrian grounds at Merricks. Despite there not being any bushland as such there is plenty to see along the trail and it’s always nice to have the kids out in the fresh air exploring the environment and challenging them to remember some of the local history learnt along the way. To further the history lesson you
need to look no further than the Merricks General Wine Store which was built in 1924 to provide locals with supplies. The Mornington Peninsula Cellar & Pantry was the original post office and the Epicurean Centre was the packing shed for apples that were taken to Crib Point and shipped. The Red Hill – Merricks Rail Trail has an important historical place in the development of the Mornington Peninsula region and is well worth an afternoon stroll.

Music Arts Food KATIE NOONAN’S GRAND ENTRANCE NATIONAL TOUR KICKS OFF AT THE GRAND MORNINGTON ON 15TH OCTOBER One of Australia’s most respected and sublime recording artists, Katie Noonan, has released her latest album, ‘Transmutant’, and is heading off on a national tour that kicks off in Mornington. An ethereal body of work, it introduces audiences to Katie Noonan’s Vanguard, bringing Katie back to the band environment where she started her career as an 18 year old, a backdrop where she acknowledges, she feels most comfortable. Fans received an initial taste of ‘Transmutant’ from a teaser single earlier in the year, a haunting track called ‘Peace is My Drug’. The album takes in a lot of sonic terrain, from the slow-build of opener ‘Falling Into A Lie’ to the layered percussion of lead single ‘Quicksand’, through the back-and-forth of ‘In The Name of the Father’ (a duet with rising star Jordan White from Playwrite) and the playful percussion of the closing ‘Cloud of Home’. Katie explains that the album’s inspiration was two-fold – as the album title suggests, it personifies a shift, a change - to mutate. It’s the musical realisation of a journey,
of the personal changes that she’s gone through over the past few years. It was also a chance for her to connect deeply with her audience through her crowd-funded Pledge campaign (which reached it’s target in under 48 hours) and to really take the reins as a producer to create a lush cinematic world that reflects her various muses. Overall, a process that has really empowered and inspired her. “The Captains had electronics in that there were samples and stuff, but this explores that world a little more. I bought this very cool vintage drum machine and we played around with a lot of vintage keyboards and synths – it’s been about opening up the sound a little more.” Katie Noonan’s Vanguard comprises Katie, The Captains bandmates Stu Hunter and Declan Kelly, plus a new face in New Zealand guitarist Peter Koopman. ‘Transmutant’ comes to life via an extensive national tour that kicks off at The Grand Mornington on 15 October.

Doomed duo: Romeo (Zachary Thomas) and Juliet (Gretel Sharp) seal their love for each other with a kiss as Dionysus Theatre’s storytellers Sam (Madeline Rintoul) and Greg (Mitchell Sholer) watch from afar, feeling they have to do something about the lovers’ fate in Shakespeare’s play. Picture: Rebecca Benson
LOVE IS ALL AROUND ‘IN THE ROUND’ FICTION’S two most famous star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet, are coming to Frankston next month thanks to a Dionysus Theatre production of Shakespeare’s passionate and tense tragedy. Romeo & Juliet will be staged at the McClelland College Performing Arts Centre in early October and director Emma Sproule is looking forward to bringing the tale of the two lovers caught between the feuding Capulet and Montague families to life. Those who already know the story of Romeo & Juliet will still find the Dionysus Theatre take on the Shakespeare play unique. “Ours is an interpretation that focuses on the power of the story and how timeless it continues to be as we introduce two storytellers, Sam and Greg, who weave in and out of the story in order to heighten our appreciation and understanding of its effect on us, even though we know from the very beginning exactly how it has to end,” Ms Sproule said.
In a post-modern twist, Sam and Greg become players in the story and try to save the doomed titular lovers. For centuries, Romeo & Juliet has been the love story by which all others are measured, and even though so many of its elements are outdated, extreme and unrealistic, it is as relevant today as it was more than 400 years ago. Dionysus’ twist to this tale shows that it still today remains the greatest love story ever told and it continues to be told because that is the power of a great story – the power that we never tire of sharing and living them; even when we know how they will end. Romeo & Juliet will be performed ‘in the round’ at McClelland College Performing Arts Centre, 26 Alexander Crescent, Karingal, 2-10 October, 8pm. Tickets $30, $25 concession, group booking discounts. See dionysustheatre.com.au for full dates and booking information.
SALON DES REFUSÉS Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery THE exhibition described as the “irreverent and playful rabble-rouser of the Archibald’s” the Salon des Refusés” is coming to Victoria – and Mornington – for the first time.
Talking point: Paul Trefry’s Homeless still human work is of silicone, fiberglass, polyester resin and horse hair. It was a Wynne Prize entry.
The exhibition showcases what’s described as “the ones that got away” – meaning those artworks that were not granted a showing in the famous Archibald Prize. They include a prized selection of the “humorous, innovative, mad, bad and dangerous entries that were too fabulous to resist”, say Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery organisers, who take delight in hosting the only showing in Victoria. The works, torn from obscurity, include portraits of Robert Forster, Catherine Martin and Carlotta, sculpture of a homeless man by Paul Trefry that was shown in the Wynne landscape prize, portrait of Greek Consul-General Dr Starvos Kyrimis, as well as Christopher Pyett’s sensitive portrait of Australian of the Year, Rosie Batty. The Salon des Refusés was begun by the S.H. Ervin Gallery, in Sydney, in 1992, in response to the large number of works entered into the Archibald and

Wynne prizes not selected for hanging in the official exhibition. Each year a panel is invited to go behind the scenes to select the best from the many works entered, but not chosen, for the official awards. The criteria for those selected in the Salon are quality, diversity, humour and innovation. The S.H. Ervin’s Salon des Refusés exhibition has established a reputation that rivals the selections of the “official” prize exhibitions and is often cited as a “more lively
and discerning” selection, the gallery says. It will run 10 October-29 November at the gallery in Civic Reserve, 350 Dunns Rd (corner Mornington-Tyabb and Dunns Rd), Mornington. Tickets are adults $7, with Mornington gallery and other Victorian gallery members, concession and National Trust Members $4 and children under five free. There is free entry for seniors during the Victorian Seniors Festival, Tuesdays 13, 20 and 27 October.

The silly season begins NEPEAN LEAGUE
By Toe Punt THE 2015 Nepean League season was another tightly contested one and the final five went down to the very last quarter of the final round. After years of domination from Sorrento, the baton was handed over to Rosebud, the 2015 premiers. Rosebud was the most consistent side all season, while its grand final opponent, Somerville, was undoubtedly the most exciting side of season 2015. It was a fitting grand final. However, despite the fact it’s been just two weeks since the cup was held aloft, attention has quickly turned to the 2016 season. Right now, coaches’ phones are running hotter than any other time of the season. This is a snapshot of what the coaches would be looking for. Rosebud: First and foremost, the Buds need to find themselves a coach. Just one applicant for a job that saw the seniors win the flag, the reserves go into the second week of finals and the Under 19s losing two matches in two seasons. The Buds also need to find replacements for their best two players, Jason Bristow and Rob Forrest, both of whom found the travel difficult. Star forward Tom Baker is being hotly sought-after by Sorrento. Somerville: The Eagles just need experience. Some cool heads to control the excitable list. A mentor for coach David ‘Budda’ Hirst would also be a welcome recruit. No offence at all to the guys on the bench now, however, a fresh, experienced set of eyes to support Hirst on the field and off it would be the best recruit the Eagles could get. Look likely to lose Cal Dixon but have secured bull Ben Crowe. Expect a major signing later this week. Sorrento: The Sharks have lost three of their best players in Troy Schwarze (retired), Tyrren Head and Leigh Poholke (Karingal). They won’t be easy to replace. Talk is Daniel Grant and Myles Pitt would like to travel. Jon Croad will become the dominant player in the competition in 2016. Rosebud premiership coach Nick Jewell takes the reigns. Sorrento always lands a big name or two and this pre-season will be no different. Luke Tapscott is coaching the Under 19s. Red Hill: The Hillmen are just so close to challenging you can taste it. The Hillmen need a key forward, tough, experienced midfielder and a ruckman. If the boys on the hill can land those, as well as keep their list (talk is B&F winner Paul Wintle is considering retirement), they will head to the third week of finals in ‘16. Word is they are close to getting the ruckman they are looking for. Hastings: Hastings wasn’t a happy place at the end of the season. What’s required is for those who don’t want to be there to disappear and those that do put their heads down and have a crack. Taylor and Kain Stratton go to Crib Point. The Blues keep Shaun Foster
PAGE 64
and Matt Clifford and word is they have some ‘good’ connections that might help the Blues land a few more. Rye: The Demons need to find depth. As the 2015 Team of the Year suggested, their top-end players are elite and the best in the competition. Throw in the likes of Brady Egan, who is also elite but just missed out on the best 22. A ruckman would be more than handy, as would another key defender. They need Ben Holmes to do a preseason and be right for the year. If not, they need a key forward also. Devon Meadows: The Panthers were the big improvers of 2015, especially in the back half of the season. A ruckman is the number one priority for the group, while they’ll be looking for more improvement from some of the teenagers who played in the reserves flag. Expect some recruitment news at this club. Frankston: The Bombers will kick of their year on Good Friday at Frankston’s Kars St Oval. Former Carlton and Brisbane Lion Brendan Fevola will be the drawcard. The Bombers need some key position players. Sam Drake, their best player, is heading overseas. Coach Beau Muston would have realised just how far off his side was in 2015 and what needs to be gained in the off-season. Dromana: Expect the Tigers to improve in 2016. I think it’s unfair though to simply assume that everyone who left the club is going back because favourite son Rikki Johnston is coaching. The fact is players are getting well paid elsewhere (and played in premierships) and the Tigers’ probably can’t afford to get them back. Their Under 19 premiership team was littered with stars and it’s time to rebuild. Pearcedale: The Panthers kickedoff the pre-season announcing Chris Irving as assistant coach. There will be some other names to add to this list in the coming weeks and coach Jamie Merchan is confident of landing some big fish. Merchan has a very clear strategy and the recruitment of kids is high on the agenda. Troy Jacobson and Alex Harnett return from Dolphins and Lachy Marshall has recommitted. Crib Point: There will be a buzz around the Magpies’ camp this preseason with a new coach in Taylor Stratton. The Pies were ravaged by injury this season and were a massive slider in 2015. If they can maintain their list and get them all through a pre-season, the Pies should enjoy a rapid rise in 2016. Tyabb: The Yabbies had a year of building up the cash reserves. Hosting the finals would have given them a nice cash injection. However, no point having the money if you don’t get recruits. The Yabbies need to land themselves a coach with a profile who can bring some players along for the ride.

Did you know... How to catch you can view our the Stonecats papers online PENINSULA LEAGUE
By Toe Punt FRANKSTON YCW made it five Peninsula League premierships in six years last Sunday. The big question coming from the mouths of spectators and opposition clubs as they were walking out of Kars St Oval was “how do we compete”? It’s a very good question. Mt Eliza may have finished as minor premier but Frankston YCW was clearly the best side in the competition in 2015. Going into the finals, we were all hopeful of a challenge but deep down, we all knew the final result would be 10-goals plus. It was 87 points. Clubs now get to work over the coming months to build a plan to challenge the Stonecats. YCW will lose some players to opposition clubs, however they have strong reserves and Under 19’s chomping at the bit for an opportunity. The champs will also look to bolster their stocks with some recruits. The Stonecats have pockets and flankers that would walk into most team’s midfields. They have key position players standing on a wing. Fact of the matter is that YCW will not slide – they’ll be the benchmark again. Personally, I think all clubs are playing for second again at this early stage. Here’s what the other clubs will be looking for to try and bridge the gap. Mornington: The Doggies need another key forward to support Jackson Calder. Dale Whelan is a genuine leading forward but the Dogs need another weapon inside the attacking arc. Defensively they structure up well with Miller, Nolan, Symes and Haddock. A couple of 6.2’ runners would be handy. Mt Eliza: The Redlegs have reappointed coach of the year John Georgiou and now they need to lock in their existing stock. Justin Van Unen is a key, as are the likes of Lobardozzi, Gill, Booth, D’Orazio and Landry. The Redlegs need to add a genuine ruckman. They also need to get Scott Lockwood up and going again. Another key defender and forward would be icing on the cake. The Redlegs season came to a halt when Lockwood went down with a knee. Edi-Asp: The Eagles need some players with some body size. The team is gifted in terms of talent but light on. Good on the spread but pushed off the footy in close. Can’t afford to lose the likes of Kremmer, Garth, Tagg, O’Hanlon, Clark, Meehan and Mullins. Need another big key defender,
ruckman and a couple of mids to allow Mavric and Tim Mannix to play on flanks. Pines: As much as we’d like to see Guy Hendry play at a higher level, Pines can’t afford to lose him. They have arguably four of the best 10 players in the comp in Beau and Guy Hendry, Aaron Edwards and Luke Potts. The Pythons are brilliantly coached by Pat Swayne. Depth is the issue and they just need to add some B-graders to bolster the list. A full back would be handy too and another genuine gun midfielder. Brad Kiely from Langwarrin/Dolphins signed with the Pythons on Wednesday. Langwarrin: Most important thing is to appoint a coach. Clubs are circling Langwarrin and if they don’t lock someone in soon, they could be in strife. The club needs to build around the likes of Gerard Brown, Matt Naughton and Nick Hammill. The club needs to be given some life. Bonbeach: The Sharks lost a heap of players in the 2014-15 off-season, however, still managed to compete very well. They need some height and some class. There is a lot of grunt in the team but some genuine star factor is required. Seaford: Seaford has to be congratulated. They cast the net far and wide for a coach and spoke to anyone and everyone. They have landed with three time grand final coach at East Brighton Ben Murphy. There is nothing but positiveness in-store for the Tigers. A few recruits, which Ben is sure to bring, along with Rourke Fischer, and they are back in the mix for a finals berth again. Chelsea: The Gulls are yet to reappoint Brent Guerra at this stage. One wonders whether the investment in an AFL premiership player could be better spent on building on the list with a handful of recruits. Todd Gardiner is a star but he needs support. Rosebud premiership pair Rob Forrest and Jason Bristow have been linked with the Gulls. Karingal: The most exciting club of the pre-season so far. The Bulls have landed Sorrento premiership players and 2015 Team of the Year stars Leigh Poholke and Tyrren Head. Former star Bulls Duncan Proud, Cal Dixon and Chris ‘Cocky’ Hay are also being linked. Head has a shoulder and this will be a concern. On Wednesday night the Bulls signed Seaford youngsters Mark Czarnecki and Rhys Chadwick, along with Matt Tarr. Anthony Joel has also returned from Rye.

New HiLux: tougher, more refined and more Australian than ever TOYOTA has released the toughest HiLux ever – a new-generation range that combines impressive global advances with extensive local development and evaluation designed to conquer the most severe operating conditions in Australia. Almost every aspect of the eighth-generation HiLux has been strengthened, including a thicker frame, stiffer body, new high-torque turbo-diesel engines, advanced six-speed transmissions, beefed-up suspension and brakes, and expanded off-road ability. Towing capacity is now up to 3.5 tonnes and payloads are up to 1240kg – with 23 of new HiLux’s 31 variants confirmed as genuine onetonners, including all 4x2 variants and all 4x4 single and extra cabs. At the same time, the latest HiLux offers SUV-like features including a more compliant ride, quieter cabins and higher levels of comfort and convenience with standard air-conditioning, touch-screen display audios, cruise control,
more supportive seats and power-operated windows, mirrors and door locks. New HiLux also has a distinctive Australian flavour with Toyota’s local engineers undertaking an unprecedented six-year program that delivered a new rugged suspension package, enhanced underbody protection, and electronic control systems tuned for more effective operation on gravel and during off-road driving. More than one million kilometres of testing, including 650,000km in Australia, has confirmed the performance, reliability and durability of new HiLux over the widest possible on-road, off-road and climatic conditions. A new family of high-torque turbo-diesel engines is headed by a 2.8-litre version with maximum torque of up to 450Nm – a gain of 25 per cent compared with the previous 3.0-litre engine. Its 2.4-litre sibling also generates higher torque of up to 400Nm.
