Sgt. Ernie Bilko was the ultimate con man. He ran the motor pool at a
small army camp. Col. Hall, tried his hardest to keep Bilko in check, as
he ran every money making scheme that he thought he could pull off.
Midnight cruises on landing craft, tank rides, poker games and an in-
teresting deal with local service stations for spare parts for Jeeps and
tyres. The question is, who is the “shady guy” sitting next to Bilko?
George Dick Former Keilor Bowls member
George Dick passed away on
the 5th of May.
George loved his native Scot-
land, and a medley of Scottish
tunes were played at his ser-
vice, featuring Andy Stewart.
At the conclusion of the service
bagpipes were played for the
final good-byes for George.
Peter Keogh says “91% of illegal
immigrants to Australia come so
they can visit their own Doctor!”
Popular club philosopher Allen Black says condoms don’t guarantee safe sex.
A friend of his was wear-ing one when he was shot by the woman’s husband.
Our very own Dianne Marshall is now the world record holder for being fifteen hours early for an overseas flight from Melbourne to London.
Dianne was able to help the attendants close up their departure booths before they went home after their shift.
Not only did she do that, she helped them open up again when they returned back to work.
Dianne is just like that, always willing to lend a hand. It had nothing to do with wanting to get away from Allen early or getting 10 a.m. mixed up with 10 p.m. it all had to do with the fondness for flying that she has always enjoyed. Lol
Cecile, Ray and Mirella wave farewell
to Australian waters as their round the
world sea adventure leaves from Perth
and bound for Colombo.
Ray and Cecile have been playing in-
door bowls on board the ship — all part
of the provided entertainment.
It was a proud moment for Daryl Payne when his
daughter Leanne Mansfield strode out onto the
centre of the M.C.G. and tossed the coin for the
start of the Richmond Melbourne match on ANZAC
Day. The Tigers are on the move at the half way
mark of the season, which makes supporters purr.

New fortnightly newsletter from Bowls Victoria
The May edition of THE SHOT magazine will be the last printed publication of this type produced by Bowls
Victoria. Like many publications, the cost of production and printing is not sustainable. Earlier this year,
Bowls Victoria initiated an independent review of our communication processes. In order for Bowls Victo-ria to proceed down the path of effectively communicating with the membership, stakeholders and people we aim to attract to the sport, we acknowledge that other methods of getting our information out to all of these different sectors must be a focus of a communications strategy going forward. We will soon launch
a new fortnightly e-newsletter that will make it easier for members to keep up-to-date with everything they need to know about results, upcoming events and news from across regional and metro areas and all levels of the sport from grassroots to elite. Go to www.bowlsvic.org.au to sign up.
Peter Keogh says the best form of birth con-trol after 50 is “nudity”.
An enjoyable morning was held at the club on Thursday 28th May, in aid of breast cancer. All proceeds will go towards the Biggest Morning Tea Cancer Appeal.
The 33 ladies and 3 gentlemen contributed $479.85 that came from donations at the door, raffles and the auction of a beau-tiful cake decorated by Barry and Lorraine Dean’s daughter.
One million people
across Australia took
part in the big event
and many had guest
speakers who had
managed to fight off
the dreaded disease
and won.
In our club so many
members are going
through the fight at
present.
THANK YOU Thank you to all who
donated raffle prizes
which helped make
the day such a suc-
cess.

LEFT: A very delighted pair, Frank Franchi and Diana Radojovic are this years winners of the Club’s Mixed Pairs.
Their formidable opposi-tion were Mick Isergin and Jenny Montague, who got off to an excellent start but were pulled back and the match continued to be neck and neck with the scores level at the start of the final end.
For the excited on-lookers it became nail biting.
Then two close bowls by Diana and Frank, and a near miss by Michael saw Frank and Diana clinch the match to take home the silverware.
Congratulation to the four players who turned on a fantastic finale.
With the Club Four’s almost in his grasp, skipper Joe Bayona had to sit back and watch as oppos-ing skipper Neil Stephenson played his last bowl that crunched the jack back into the sand. Thus celebrating a great victory with a narrow 2 shot win. The victory also meant a great deal to Bernie Copal as he sadly says good-bye to Keilor with a hard earned trophy for his pool room. (Just look at that smile).
David Salmon and Colin Richmond didn’t hold back on their hard earned victory either.
