ANZROC VIC NEWSLETTER NOVEMBER 8TH 2016
WELCOME
Newly elected President Eamon Veaney welcomed 44 members and partners to the ANZ CENTRE AT 833 Collins Street Docklands for our 42nd Annual General Meeting. The attendance of partners was welcomed and several attendees mentioned how much they enjoyed the facilities at ANZ Centre in Docklands so our Committee that arranges the venues each year will consider further luncheons at Docklands.
Members not seen for some time included Ian Cave for his first meeting, Wolf Damschitz back from his travels, John Inglis, Sandra Joseph after knee surgery, Jack Lepedjian, Rodney Manser, Gary Mason, Fay and Gerry McPherson and Mary Nicolazzo for her first meeting. The relaxing atmosphere and the outlook over Docklands made for a very pleasant afternoon.
The changes of personnel after the AGM are listed in the AGM report later in this newsletter.
Photos taken at the luncheon by Eamon Veaney and John Brown are posted on our Website and Facebook pages.

RECOLLECTIONS OF FUN TIMES IN THE BANK
More stories from our ANZROC members about their experiences in ANZ:
Jeffrey Cox
Jeffrey was recently asked by John Brown if he still had the MG A that he bought while at Mt Waverley Branch. Jeffrey’s response “It was actually a 1972 yellow MG B and unfortunately I sold it when we went to Japan in 1974. It was one of the last to be built in Australia and I got a few hundred more for it than we paid for it. My wife Alison was pregnant when we came back so no more sports cars I’m afraid. I still love cars and have the rare distinction of having been booked for speeding in 11 countries. It would have been 12 but the Nepali policeman thought my (the bank’s) black Landcruiser was part of the royal fleet. There were 3 black Landcruisers in Nepal when I was there, the king had 2 and I had the other one but at no stage did I think I was I driving dangerously. It’s just that, in my opinion, the speed limits didn’t suit the conditions at the time…….
My involvement with ANZ started at a very early age. In the late forties when I was about 5, my grazier uncle took me with him when he had a meeting with his bank manager in the small western district town of Casterton. The meeting soon adjourned to the pub next door so the manager made sure the open fire was burning safely, sat me up in his chair and told me I was in charge of the bank. This prospect was so daunting to a 5 year old that it wasn’t long before I had to find a toilet. There were no pot plants in offices in those days so I had no alternative but to douse the fire. When they returned they were greeted by the damp dying embers and an unpleasant smell.
The fire theme continued when some years later I joined ANZ Ballarat as my first job was to cut a pile of wood for the manager’s wife who lived above the premises. My second job was to clean out the strong room. This obviously hadn’t been done for a very long time because on top of the main safe, I found a packet of dusty .45 calibre bullets. After this period of extensive training I became batching clerk at the bank’s Ballarat West sub-branch situated across the road from the Base Hospital. We serviced it each day from the main branch by taking up all the cash in a tray. On top of the tray was a .45 calibre pistol. My mate Geoff Leslie had a 1948 MG TC in those days so I convinced him we should leave a little earlier, take the hood off and travel up via Victoria park - so I could fire off a few of the dusty rounds at unsuspecting crows. We didn’t hit any crows but we had a lot of fun.
Kerry Dodds
In the late 1950’s my brother commenced work at the ES&A Ballarat East branch. The manager at the time was Gavan Ryan. Gavan was without doubt the most notable Bank Manager in Ballarat and the fact that ES&A Ballarat East was three times the size of any other bank in Ballarat East was a testament to his skills. In that era three agencies were operated at Dean, Bungaree and Wallace. At the Dean Agency my brother’s duties were mainly to fetch golf balls that Gavan and/or a client had belted down the road outside the Agency. On the journey between agencies there was a favourite section where the ignition of the car would be switched off and a rolling distance would be measured. Occasionally my brother would have to get out and push the car the last few yards to “break the record”. I recall the car was a Vauxhall.
On one occasion I was with my parents when my brother had to be picked up after work. Whilst waiting outside the bank I noticed someone walking along the top of the very high old bank. When my brother came out it turned out it was the Boss (Gavan Ryan) cleaning something out of the spouting. No safety equipment in those days. I was in Ballarat for 28 years from1970 on and the Ryan name came up consistently and probably still does.
ANZROC 42nd Annual General Meeting
The 42nd Annual General Meeting was held during the monthly luncheon and the minutes of the 41st Annual General Meeting held on Thursday 12th November 2015 were confirmed.

As reported in the September newsletter our long time Records Officer Debbie Jerkovic retired after more than 20 years of sterling service to ANZROC members.
PRESIDENTS REPORT 2015/2016.
It is my pleasure to present the annual report of ANZROC.
The year has been an eventual and pleasurable year with interesting guest speakers plus suburban and country social meetings providing a variety of venues, thus enabling members who cannot participate at city venues to enjoy fellowship in a local setting.
Our Regular monthly newsletters are very popular to members enabling all to keep in contact with former colleagues. We are indebted to our editor Ron Adams, who has done a sterling job in producing the newsletter.
ANZROC’s Website has been in operation now for nearly 6 years. We also have an ANZROC Facebook page. Most of our members are now on email so the combination of the ANZROC’s website and
Facebook page is a great way of keeping in touch with each other. We encourage all Members and their families to catch up with what we are doing via these Social Media channels. Eamon Veaney our Senior Vice President and web master has done a great job and we thank him for his work.
Our Secretary Vicky Genius has looked after the administration of the club and has handled this function with flair.
Our Social Committee (Noel Beanland, John McPhee, Kevin Mitchell, Joan Nathan, Ken Pattison, Neville Pearson, Wolf Damschitz and Kathy Trace) have as usual provided excellent service. Our welcome team (George Cooper, Ken Crawford, Con La Fauci and Ken Pattison) ensure that members are welcomed at meetings.
Last year our 2015 Christmas Luncheon at the Arts Centre was well attended with 282 members and bank guests enjoying the opportunity to get together. ANZ guests included Shayne Elliott, Graham Hodges, Gilles Plante, Susie Babani and Alistair Currie. We are indebted to the Bank for their most generous financial support to ANZROC. At our Christmas luncheon Shayne Elliott, responded to the toast to ANZ given by Doug Watson.
Queen Street meetings have remained popular with a wide range of interesting guest speakers.
This year suburban and country lunch meetings were held at RSL Greensborough, Mulgrave Country Club and Geelong.
Our Welfare Committee (Ken Crawford, Joan Nathan, Neville Pearson, and Kathy Trace) has been extremely busy and we thank them for their work
Birthday cards are sent to all members (which always arrive on the day), Christmas cards to members over 90 years, and visiting members as needed.
We also included obituary notices in the Sun Herald for deceased members.
Membership:
Remains strong with 20 new members this year. Regrettably during the year some 17 members passed away. Can you please pause to remember them?
Financial
The club is in good financial position thanks to the great work of our treasurer John Brown. Member’s subscriptions and Bank subsidy allow us to provide the resources to enable the club to function. We also acknowledge the late Alan Forrest for his role as auditor and Norris Gale for accepting the committee’s invitation to take over the role for the remainder of 2016.
We have also had a small group (John Brown, Carl Garley, Eamon Veaney and Glyn Parry-Jones) working to bring our new Membership Management and Accounting System on line.
I would also like to pay tribute to the retirement of our Records Officer Debbie Jerkovic after more than 20 years’ service looking after the clubs records.
Conclusion
For me, it has been a great honour and pleasure to serve, and I thank all the committee members for their contribution. On my and your behalf, I invite you to show our appreciation and thanks to the committee, for the achievements and results attained during the past year.
Peter Pritchard
BIRDIES TWITTER
Our resident poet Neville Pearson has penned a short poem noting the retirement of our
Life Member and Past President Kevin Mitchell about to relocate to Tasmania:
In appreciation of Kevin and Bernice
Mitch and Bernice are moving to the Apple Isle
And with them goes their infectious smile
I am sure the family in Tasmania will be jumping for joy
For the love and laughter you have imparted since you were a young boy
Kevin and Bernice are leaving in December this year
The ANZROC club will save a fortune on beer
Who will take over the role of joke maker extraordinaire?
It has the committee shaking their heads in despair
I am sure visitors will be most welcome as they have always been
A more lovable couple I have never seen
Thanks Mitch for a career that gave joy to so many
Spontaneous and clever and did not cost us a penny
From all the members of the ANZROC club
We will enjoy visiting you and Bernice at the local Tasmanian pub
I speak on behalf of all the members and the committee
You are most welcome to join us when in Melbourne City
Love and best wishes from all committee and members of ANZROC
LETTERS
Murray Abraham now at 90 years of age phoned to let me know he had relocated to Ashburton after almost 12 months in hospital and rehab following an extended bout of chemotherapy but he said his health is much improved and he is looking forward to a better 2017.
John Carrazza emailed to send special thanks to the president and committee of the ANZ retired officers club and to Kathy Trace for the Birthday acknowledgement. Since leaving the bank in 1997 John is still working as an estate agent.
Committeeman and Life member George Cooper emailed to thank the Committee for his Birthday card for his 87th birthday which arrived 1 day ahead. With current postal deliveries timing must be very difficult for Kathy Trace.
Kerry Dodds writing from Warrenheip says thanks to Kathy Trace for the birthday greetings and especially for the time and effort she contributes. It is a busy time of the year in Ballarat. He has just returned from the annual trout fishing trip at Dartmouth and is on his way to Geelong for the Caravan and Camping shows with Ray Watson at Gateway. Kerry was writing this note while supervising Year 12 students sitting end of year exams. The winters fly by as two sons still play football in the Central Highlands League but for different teams so when they play each other he is not sure which team to support. With 6 grandchildren now the baby sitting has escalated. They are all very active and when they are together the noise level is amazing. Kerry considers himself fortunate that he is still fit enough to still play competition singles tennis matches.
Phil Dunstan emailed his thanks for the newsletter again, which is always welcomed, and thanks to Kathy Trace for the Birthday Card which actually arrived a couple of days early this year (Aust Post delivery vagaries are difficult to anticipate!!) Phil is an apology for the November meeting as he will be motoring to Brisbane to catch up with elder Son and Grandkids. Having just returned from a trip to Austria, Switzerland, and Germany he is having a little difficulty in getting the feet back on the ground. It helps though to read of other Retired Officers and their various activities. Each day of the trip seemed to have a higher highlight than the previous day and Phil was quite lucky with good sunny weather when hitting the very spectacular Austrian Tyrol and the Swiss Alps. Enjoying a relaxing luncheon of Swiss bakery items and a large beer on the balcony of the hotel in Zermatt with the sun shining on the Matterhorn was pretty close to heaven. Working out in the gym on the top floor of the hotel in St. Moritz with a postcard view took all the hard work out of the workout. Stuttgart, which was the major purpose of the trip, with a visit to Mercedes Benz was another thing altogether with the chance to spend a day on a disused airport having "fun" with several latest models - you can't take the toy out of the boy – Phil still enjoys a bit of spirited motoring, whenever possible. Best wishes to all for the forthcoming festive season.
Frank Hatfield emailed a note to express his thanks for the birthday wishes received on the occasion of his 85th from the President, Committee, Members and Kathy Trace. Both Frank and wife Joan are keeping reasonably good health and have been able to have couple of short breaks away, one to Tower hill, near Warrnambool and the other to Mulwala, NSW. They are hopeful of having more short holidays in the not too distant future.
Mike Henry emailed to say thanks again to Kathy Trace for ensuring his 70th Birthday Card arrived on time. He celebrated by having an intimate family and friends gathering at his son’s home in Mordialloc. 3 schoolmates attended. They still get together each year 54 years after leaving school. Mike had the distinction this year to be one of four inductees into the Silesian College Hall of Fame. His banking career was partly instrumental in this achievement. Mike still occupies his time with volunteer driving, golfing, running trivia nights, grand child sitting, gardening, leisurely walking and regular umpiring fraternity luncheons. Life is good!
Rolf Loebert emailed from Drouin to thank Kathy Trace and the committee for his birthday card which was appreciated.
Roche Manuel emailed that he had just received the wonderful card and thank you very much for making his day. It is amazing that Kathy Trace keeps up to what can only be described as a mammoth task. Usually these days’ birthday greetings take place on Face Book or Email and it is refreshing to get a Card. Roche hopes that doesn’t change at ANZROC. Roche says thanks once again to President Peter, Other Members and especially Kathy.
Emilio Moreno emailed his thanks to Kathy Trace and the committee for the kind wishes received for his birthday. Congratulations to Eamon Veaney on his new reformatted monthly newsletter, great job Eamon. !! Emilio will be at the Christmas lunch.
Alan Ryan writing from Warragul sends his thanks for the birthday card that arrived on his birthday. Alan has arrived at advanced middle age at 80. He has been in Warragul for43 years and still runs his beef cattle. He has been to USA again this year to visit their daughter in Los Angeles and they detoured to Europe to do the river cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam. A great cruise.
Dieter Telburn emailing from Peregian Beach said he had just read in the newsletter of the sad news that Pete Bromilow has passed away at such a young age. It caused memories to flood back of happy times spent together in the mid-sixties in the Victorian Branch Securities Department of the ES&A Bank. They were fun days not just at work but also socially. Dieter had his first sail on Pete’s Quickcat catamaran 'Cheri', and he fell in love with catamaran sailing. Dieter has sailed one or the other ever since and still owns one. Dieter and wife Dagmar were at his 21st Birthday party were they also met Peter’s siblings Marg and John. A little later Peter’s wife Sandra came onto the scene, and altogether they had skiing weekends at Buller. Dieter also fondly remembers all of them having Easter 1967 at Summerlands cottages in Phillip Island (They have since been replaced by the Penguin Parade complex.) Again, Dieter fell in love with Phillip Island and bought a holiday house. They still have a house there which is used when they come to Victoria. Dieter still remembers that he and Pete set off in the morning to go spear fishing for their lunch, and then getting sprung by the girls buying hamburgers (on Good Friday!) at the kiosk as they had not caught any sizable fish. Dagmar and Dieter had just bought a house in a new subdivision in Melbourne so it became the place to party (no kids yet) for the Branch Department gang ; sometimes all night followed by a cricket match in the empty street at 5am only to be interrupted by the horse drawn milk delivery cart.
Sandra's brother worked in Papua New Guinea and kept telling Pete how good life was there for an expatriate, and he encouraged Pete to ask the bank for a transfer. He got one and they finished up in Boroko, and unfortunately Dieter and Dagmar lost touch with the Bromilows.
He now wonders who finished up with the red MG TC Pete owned; if it is still on the road it will be worth a fortune. May be their mate car enthusiast John White got it, he was a junior in Staff Department then but finished up as GM Personnel in the ANZ.
Those were some of the best times in Dieter’s banking career, and Pete was a big part of it.
Kelvin Tyler emailed his thanks to Kathy Trace and the ANZ ROC Committee for the lovely card sent to him on his recent 80th birthday.
Bill Walker emailed to say many thanks to all those involved, for the kind birthday wishes. Another year under the belt without any great mishap. Bill says that like so many ex colleagues he looks forward to digesting the monthly newsletter generally, and particularly to follow the exploits of others.. Unfortunately Bill and wife Maureen’s travelling days are over, so he has nothing to contribute in that regard, except to say, ‘ do it while you can’.
Doug Watson emailed his appreciation for the very special ANZROC card for that day when he arrived in this world. Doug’s daughter Catriona is having a baby so wife Maureen and Doug will soon be jetting off to Seattle the land of Boeing, Microsoft and Amazon to be with her in hi- tech land. Sadly that means they will miss a number of ANZROC functions including the AGM and the retired officers Christmas lunch in particular.
Mike Whitmore wrote to pass on his sincere thanks for the Birthday Card which arrived spot on time. Special thanks especially to Kathy Trace for such a wonderful effort that she puts in each year.

MATTERS OF INTEREST
OPPORTUNITY FOR PART TIME EMPLOYMENT
Barry Rogers In 1999, after being pensioned off in 1996, reported that he answered an advert in the ANZROC newsletter for a bookkeeper for a local (Springvale) solicitor. He thought the part-time job would serve him for a couple of years until he retired fully and was pleased when accepted. Well, seventeen years later, Barry has finally decided to retire fully, and his boss has asked how he would go about advertising in the newsletter for a replacement.
Barry won’t go into full details of the position at this time, but if any retired officer is interested in working approx. 16 hours over two/ three days a week, he can be contacted on 98663032.
NEW MEMBERSHIP MANAGEMENT AND ACCOUNTING SYSTEM FOR ANZROC
From 1 October this year, the way in which ANZROC’s membership records and accounts are managed has changed, with a number of benefits for both members and elected office-bearers.
All records are being transferred to a secure, on-line database which provides many additional management and communication options.
Individual subscription invoices have been emailed/mailed to members over the past two weeks advising the amount due and the preferred methods of payment. Honorary members (80+ years of age) and Life Members will not receive an Invoice or Statement.
ANZROC GOLF DAY – Rosebud Country Club that was - due to be held on Friday 25th November 2016 HAS BEEN CANCELLED
We only received 17 entries for the ANZROC spring competition and that was below the 24 needed to secure our corporate booking.
Huck Bourke and several of our golfing members are formulating a questionnaire which will be circulated over the following three months asking members that have previously been involved in tournaments at Traralgon, Rosebud and the autumn tournaments a few years ago to let us know what is needed to draw the golfers back to ANZROC events.
ANZ Staff Club
ANZ Retired staff is eligible for membership of the ANZ Staff Club and the annual fee to be a ANZ Staff Club retired officer member has been reduced to $19-50. The Staff Club still offers a great range of products and accommodation to members, together with regular bulletins on special deals and products that are available, Membership can be very worthwhile and a look at their website will give you more information.
