2014 JINGELLIC SHOW
ROLL UP, ROLL UP- IT’S SHOW TIME!

photos submitted. (Good job they started the judging
early!) Congratulations to the Champion Photographer: Kathy

committee, led by Ace Coughlan. The weather was kind and
Well done, Kylie. A Jingellic contingent spiced up the cooking
smiles were abundant. Gate takings might have been reduced on
classes with an epic Battle of the Scones, the friendly rivalry was
fierce and there was some mutterings after the judging as there is
an unwritten and unstated rule but one that is adhered to by judges,
that scones cannot be shaped with a crimped cutter – who would
have known! Clearly not some of the Jingellic contingent! Not to
worry – the committee is going to standardise the instructions for
next year so the battle will rage again on a level playing field!
Cecillia De Laurentis and her stewards do a fine job each year
organising the pavilion entries, unfortunately their efforts are not
entirely rewarded as each year it seems the quantity, (but not
quality) of exhibits decreases. It would appear that either Walwa
and District is being overcome by apathy; or the passion for arts,
craft and gardening is being suppressed by other pursuits such as
TV/playstation/etc; or we are becoming so horrendously busy that
hobbies are taking a back seat. Either way, I think the community

The judges and competitors in the Show jumping, hack events and

CRICKETERS HONOUR LUKE BATTY
Jingellic's junior cricketers hosted Tumbarumba Colts for the last
game of the home and away season, with the ground looking a
treat. Coaches David Crelley and Craig Stephens led the players
in a minute's silence in remembrance of the recent tragic death of
young Victorian junior cricketer Luke Batty. The players wore
yellow armbands and, to both teams' credit, played in the real
spirit of cricket . Jingellic's opening bats were Edward Waters
and Jaiden Detering. Jaiden went out early while Edward faced
several overs before dismissal on 2. Andrew Jenkins and Sasha
Newnham met in the centre for a strong 15 run 3rd wicket
partnership. Andrew contributed 9 to Jingellic's score of 3-19.
Sasha batted solidly taking the lead while Caitlan Klippel hit 5
and Henry Waters 3 to bring the team to 6-50 with Sasha scoring
10. Cooper Daly and Curtis Stephens built a fine 39 run 7th
wicket stand before Curtis retired on 26. Jingellic were 7-89.
Cooper continued to a retiring score of 25, with Ethan Parry
hitting a single. Sol Staples and Connor Newnham were the not
out batsmen at completion of 25 overs with the pair calling and
running very well between wickets. Connor hit 23 quick runs to
see Jingellic 9-121.
The 4th over of Colts' innings saw Sol take the first wicket when
Andrew held a sharp catch. Sol ended 1-3 including a wicket
maiden. Curtis had a double wicket maiden in the 7th, with
Cooper proving reliable in the field for the first and Curtis taking
a caught and bowled 4 balls later. Colts were 3-23. Sasha took a
wicket in the 14th when Andrew held a catch behind stumps to
see Sasha finish with 1-11. With Jingellic sharp in the field a run
-out saw Colts 6-67 in the 19th. Connor took a good catch off
Cooper's third to give him 1-12. Sasha held a chance behind
stumps off Curtis to see him end 3-7 with Colts 9-81. Cooper and
Connor paired up to take the last dismissal of the day with the
visitors total on 82, and Connor 1-4 including a wicket maiden. It
was a great game to end the regular season with many of the
younger players from both teams showing vast improvement.
Jingellic now start the finals with a home game this Saturday. As
always, cricket enthusiasts are encouraged to come and support
their home team.
In a rare double, Jingellic's seniors had a great victory over
Falcons. The Jackals dismissed Falcons for 161 in the 37th with
Dale Lovatt 4-46, Jesse Ash 2-2, Dean Jury 2-32 and Roy Hall 122. Dale and Curtis then put together an opening stand of 45 with
Dale 17, Connor 33 and Curtis 61. It was left to our senior
statesmen George Kucka and Craig Stephens to bring the victory
home in a manly display of restrained excitement. Jackals 5-169
in the 33rd to record another win. This seniors team has fostered
our junior players admirably. Well done to all players for the
manner in which you have represented the club this season.
LOCAL BOY TAKES NEXT STEP

Jingellic opened the batting with Curtis Stephens and Andrew
Jenkins, with the pair putting on a quick 20 before Curtis was
dismissed on 12. Andrew and Connor Newnham then built
another double digit stand. After Andrew went out on 7, Cooper
came to the crease. The third wicket partnership of 22 ended when
Connor retired on 25. Home team 3-58. Sasha added 7 and Caitlan
Klippel 3 as Cooper saw out a number of batting partners and
overs to be on 8 when given out. Jingellic 8-88 in the 17th. Two
first year players then put together a defiant 18 run last wicket
partnership to complete the 25 overs with both batsmen not out Henry Waters on 5 and Mackenzie Miller on 4. Jingellic's total
was 106.
Edward Waters took a key Batlow wicket in the 2nd over when
Connor Newnham held a well-judged catch. Edward 1-8. Connor
then saw his brother Sasha glove a caught behind opportunity to
give him figures of 1-3 including a maiden. A swift return to the
keeper from Andrew resulted in a run-out for the third dismissal
with Batlow on 25. Andrew then backed up with a wicket maiden
to end 1-5. In the 14th over Sasha and Connor again combined
with Connor this time taking an agile catch off Sasha's bowling.
Mackenzie's good length bowling saw the 6th wicket fall with the
total on 46. Mackenzie 1-3. Excellent ground fielding from
Cooper brought a run-out in the next over. Sasha's accuracy saw
the 8th wicket fall and gave him figures of 2-2 including a wicket
maiden.
Curtis held a sharp chance off Cooper's third over to see Cooper
end 1-5. Curtis then took the final dismissal when Andrew held a
nick behind stumps to finish the game with Batlow 10-57.
Jingellic's younger players were strong in the field and with the
bat, again proving the essence of cricket being a team sport. Well
done to Jingellic as they now progress to the preliminary final to
be played against Tooma at Tooma this Saturday, for the right to
meet Corryong in the grand final the following week.
Jingellic Junior Cricket Club Media Report 8 March 2014
Jingellic's junior team travelled to Tooma for the semi-final last
Saturday, with the Upper Murray turning on a magnificent
autumn day.
Jingellic won the toss and chose to bat with the openers being
Curtis Stephens and Andrew Jenkins. Curtis opened his account
with a cracking shot over the bowler's head and remained
focussed while wickets fell at the other end. At the 7th over
Jingellic were 3-35 when Curtis was dismissed on 22. Cooper
Daly showed tremendous resolve to steer the visitors through the
next 10 overs, hitting a retiring score of 25. Our younger players
tried their best and did a great job of seeing out the remaining 8
overs to give Jingellic a total of 75 runs.
With a low total to defend Jingellic needed tight bowling. Tooma
patiently built a strong opening partnership of 48 runs before
Curtis took an agile catch off Andrew's bowling to see the only
dismissal of the innings. Tooma easily passed the required run
total in the 19th over. It was a disappointing end to the season for
Jingellic, but the positives are also obvious. Many of our younger
players have improved dramatically and, despite defeat, the team
showed great sportsmanship.
Club Presentations for both juniors and seniors will be held this
Sunday
16 March 3pm below Bridge Hotel on the banks of the Murray
River. Please bring some afternoon tea to share.

TIGERS ROAR!
Tumbarumba Tigers U16 cricketers travelled to Tallangatta last
Sunday for their second game against Tallangatta District. The
squad were keen to reverse the previous game's result and gain
more valuable experience playing on a turf wicket. Captains for
the day were Andrew Haenig and John-Paul MacKenzie.
Tallangatta had prepared a magnificent ground. Tallangatta
District won the toss and elected to bat first. Tigers opened their
bowling attack with Andrew Haenig and Daniel Willis.New to the
team but not to cricket, Daniel Bond rifled a return to dismiss the
stumps and the home team's opening bat, with a brilliant throw.
Andrew found his rhythm quickly, with three maidens in a row
restricting the batsmen. Andrew finished with 0-9 off 8 overs.
Cooper Daly bowled back to back maidens and then took wickets
in the next two overs. The first was a well-judged caught and
bowled. Home team 3-65 at 17th over. Daniel Willis came back
into the attack from the opposite end for the Tigers and took the
key wicket of captain and home team's top-scoring batsman, Nick
McCormack, who hit a solid 33. The wicket came from a great
catch by Peter Morris. Connor Wilson held a skied ball to give
Daniel a second wicket and end 2-36. Cooper maintained his
accuracy taking the 6th wicket and finishing 3-10 with 3 maidens
off 8 overs. Tallangatta District 6-111 at the 33rd over. John-Paul
MacKenzie came back in for a second spell, continuing the team's
tight line, to bowl two overs for 4 runs. Daniel Bond bowled the
last over, taking the 7th wicket, and ending 1-23 with 1 maiden
from 8 overs. Tallangatta District's total after 40 overs was 7-128
on a slow outfield. Tigers' fielding was frugal, with all players
contributing to containing the batting team's score.
In reply John-Paul MacKenzie and Andrew Haenig opened the
batting, with no loss of wicket until the 8th over, after John-Paul
hit 7 runs. Curtis and Andrew built a valuable 45 run partnership
before Andrew was dismissed on 18. Jordan Wilson hit 2 runs as
he supported Curtis well. Tigers 3-76 at 26 overs. Zac Richards
came into bat at number 5 and played a swashbuckling innings to
break up the bowling attack. Curtis' innings of fine stroke play saw
him hit 39 runs, enabling the Tigers to focus on victory. Tigers 5100 in the 33rd over. A steady innings from Daniel Willis of 14
runs, with fine support from Andrew Jenkins (2) and Connor
Wilson, brought the visitors' total to 9-126. Daniel Bond's steady
head and good running between wickets with Peter Morris, saw
Daniel hitting the winning run off the last ball and 11 not out off
the bat. Tigers 9/129. This is the first victory for a Tumbarumba
U16s representative team in 4 years. Coach Craig Stephens

because he had been rejected by all the established golf courses
(because he was Jewish). His wife, meanwhile came to feel
Our book group is well into the swing of Bookclub again,
having had two meetings this year. We were sad to lose Harley as isolated and lonely. Her guilt on surviving the holocaust when all
the rest of her family had perished, made her become more and
a member due to ill health, while Julia is on leave for this year
due to her work commitments. We welcome Jo from Wymah as a more distant from her husband and more and more focussed on
trying to remember the past. The trials and setbacks Mr
new member.
Rosenblum encounters make for a lively read.
The January book for discussion was titled "Three Dollars", by
Elliot Perlman. An interesting book. This was a good read, but
rather sad as it dealt with the period of the 1980's time of
redundancies and retrenchments in business and the social fallout of this time. We found Perlman's writing lively and very
often quite witty in spite of the depressing subject. A writer to
watch I feel.
Next month's book is titled "The Bean Trees" by Barbara
Kingsolver. We have previously read and enjoyed "Prodigal
Summer" by this author. It promises to be a good read with one
of the comments on the cover stating it to be "Idealistic and
exhilarating. The Bean Trees is a book that combines the most
careful craft with a moral code that is loving and expansive".
Hope we can agree after reading it!!!
The February book was "Mr Rosenblum's List" by Natasha
Bron
Solomons. A strange book about Mr Rosenblum - a displaced
Jew, and his quest to try to totally assimilate into English society.
On arrival in England, he had been given a pamphlet about how
to integrate into England and he took it to heart!! He became
obsessed, even to the point of building his own golf course

EULOGY WILLIAM JAMES HENNESS
(Bill senior) 27/7/1916 -5/3/2014
Sadly missed but never forgotten until we meet again, go in
peace, rest in gods care.
“May be equalled – can never be excelled.”
Dad and mum moved from Appin NSW to Jingellic in 1947 with
3 children Bill(jnr) Charlie & Annette. There they lived in Jim
Ogilvie’s old house near the creek at “Glen-Devon”. From there
Bill rode a push-bike to Walwa each day to work for Clem Gadd
at the Brick Kiln. Bill made many of the bricks for the Walwa
Hall. After a few years Bill moved to Walwa and cut wood with
an axe for the Butter Factory and carted it on a 1940 Chef Truck
which he replaced with a new 4-5 tonne Austin. Bill continued
with the wood up until the 1952 bush fire which burnt all he had
stacked near the Butter Factory.
The other four children were born from there on, totalling seven.
Dad then secured a job on the Towong Shire Council in 1953 in
road maintenance and also carted sanitary pans once a week for
many years. Dad stayed on the Towong Shire until his retirement
in 1981.
Your loving daughter
Annette
For my father
My father of 62 years, those years of caring, support, advice and
love I thank you.
Hard to believe you are now gone, but you are now at peace, and
with our creator.
Make sure you gaze upon your “thinking hill” from time to time
you leave behind a loving wife, children, grandchildren and great
grandchildren.
I am sure you will be greatly missed by all.
Rest in peace father,
Bill was the secretary of the Walwa Progress Association for
many years. The association made many improvements to the
town. He was also Secretary of the Caravan Park Committee for
years and was responsible there too for many improvements. He
“hand-made” every brick for the family home (since sold) on
River Road.
Your loving daughter
Sandra
He was a hard worker.
He then built up his apiary of bee hives and supplied honey to
various outlets and worked them until age 80.
He loved to listen to “Country Round Up” on Saturday
afternoons, on local Community Radio Station where Annie
always played him 2 songs of either Buddy or Gordon. A hard
and dedicated worker and loving father who will be sadly missed.
Dad over the last few months I have seen you suffer, you ignored
the pain, and never once did you complain. I have a lot of
memories about your advice and companionship over the years
for example the stern way of saying “Check the oil and water in
your vehicle before starting the motor and change the oil when
it’s due” and that throughout life I have handed down. Along with
your kindness to your grandchildren which I and they will always
remember?
Go now and go in peace rest easy until we meet again
Charlie
Our dear father was a very special, reserved, dedicated man, well
respected by friends and dearly loved by his family.
A passionate bee-keeper in his spare time and supplied the best
honey ever, his motto was “May be equalled – cannot be
excelled.”
A hard dedicated worker in everything he did by lantern light
after work, he made so many concrete bricks every night to build
the family home, even found time to teach me to sing and yodel
the old hill-billy songs.
At a Christmas school concert in the Walwa hall he encouraged
me to sing the song – “I must have good terbaccy when I smoke”.

GOUT
uric acid crystals can be seen in large numbers under a
microscope.
Gout is characterised by recurrent attacks of extreme pain,
swelling and redness in the big toe joint, knee, ankle, elbow and
other joints. A gout attack is sudden and painful and caused by
a build-up of a waste product, uric acid, in the bloodstream.
Excess uric acid settles in joints causing inflammation, pain
and swelling. Alcohol, overeating, dieting and dehydration can
trigger a gout attack.
Once the diagnosis is confirmed, your doctor will consider the
following treatment options: non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
drugs (NSAIDs); colchicines; corticosteroid injections or tablets.
These medications have side effects – your doctor will be able to
advise the most appropriate treatment for you.
While most other types of arthritis develop slowly, an attack
of gout happens suddenly, often overnight. The most
commonly affected joint is the big toe, but gout may be
experienced in the feet, ankles and knees, and less commonly
in the elbows, hands and other joints. For some people, even
the weight of a bed sheet can cause intolerable pain.
The methods of managing an acute attack of gout differ from the
ongoing methods for managing gout. The primary goal in
everyday management is to reduce the level of uric acid in the
blood so it cannot form crystals in the tissues or joints. The
benefits of reducing uric acid in the blood long term include:
slowing the progress or risk of kidney disease which may be
caused by deposits of urate in the kidneys and possibly reducing
the risk of heart disease.
Causes of gout
Gout occurs when uric acid builds up in the bloodstream and
deposits urate crystals in the joint. The build-up of uric acid is
most commonly caused by under-excretion of uric acid by the
kidneys, but may also be caused by the overproduction of uric
acid by the body.
Some people have higher levels of uric acid in their
bloodstream when compared to others. This condition is called
hyperuricaemia and can be hereditary. Gout is more common in
men, and often several men of the one family can be affected by
gout.
Other causes of gout can include the use of diuretics (fluid
tablets) which can cause the retention of too much uric acid.
Risk factors of gout: A person with gout is more likely to have
an attack when they have elevated levels of urate in the blood,
consume too much alcohol (particularly beer), consume a diet
high in ‘purines’ such as meat, sweetbreads, offal, shellfish,
and fructose (found in fruit juices), are obese, use diuretics,
injure a joint and/or become dehydrated.
Dealing with an attack of gout: Without treatment, the attack
usually resolves within one or two weeks, however with
medications, the attack can be resolved within several days.
If this is your first attack of gout, your doctor will look for
elevated blood urate levels and may aspirate (remove a sample of
fluid from the joint) for a definite diagnosis. If you have gout,

Darby, 3rd; Nick Roe on Tuck
SENIOR; 1st ; Jade Birch on Tiger Lilly, 2nd; Randall Taylor on
Armani, 3rd; Robbie McKimmie on Ello
If you have frequent episodes of gout, your doctor may prescribe
medications to reduce the formation of uric acid and increase the
excretion of uric acid.
Changes to lifestyle can help in the long term
If you suffer from gout you will benefit in the long term from
healthy changes to your lifestyle. Suggestions to assist in the
lifestyle management of gout include:
Maintain a healthy body weight. If you do need to lose weight,
ensure your weight loss is gradual as ‘crash’ diets can increase
uric acid levels
Cut down on alcohol consumption and avoid binge drinking;
Keep hydrated – drink plenty of water; Consult a dietician to
get advice on a diet that limits the purines that are thought to
cause gout; Exercise regularly; Manage high blood pressure
and work closely with your doctor or rheumatologist to prevent
further attacks and actively manage your condition.
Things to remember Gout is a type of arthritis caused by too
much uric acid in the bloodstream. Excess uric acid settles in
joints and causes pain and swelling. Healthy lifestyle choices
combined with a correct treatment program should mean that
gout can be successfully managed.

Tangled Threads
Walwa/Jingellic Craft Group
A great roll up of 10 at the last Tangled Threads get together.
Everyone sat around knitting up a storm with their yellow materials.
Some were busily cutting up strips of fabric ready to knit while
others clicked away with their yellow wool.
We had a fun time with lots of chatting.
Our project for the month was to do as much knitting as we could to
help Holbrook with the yarn bombing of the submarine. Their plan
is to cover the submarine in yellow to celebrate 50 years since the
Beatles visited Australia.
So if you have any spare yellow “anything” that can be knitted up
feel free to do so and help Holbrook achieve its challenge. You can
drop your knitting off to the craft group or take it into the shire
office in Holbrook.
(I did take a photo of the group but the photo was too dark to publish
in WW)
Our next get together will be the third Thursday in April (17th)
Would love to see you there to help us knit more yellow.
