SENDING OUT AN SOS: Three men have been rescued from a tiny Pacific island after writing a giant SOS sign in the sand that was spotted from above, authorities say. The men had been missing in the Micronesia archipelago for nearly three days when their distress signal was spotted on Sunday on uninhabited Pikelot Island by searchers on Australian and US aircraft, the Australian defence department said on Monday. The men had apparently set out from Pulawat atoll in a 7-metre boat on July 30 and had intended to travel about 43 kilometres to Pulap atoll when they sailed off course and ran out of fuel, the department said. Searchers in Guam asked for Australian help. The military ship, Canberra, which was returning to Australia from exercises in Hawaii, diverted to the area and joined forces with US searchers from Guam. The men were found about 190 kilometres from where they had set out. “I am proud of the response and professionalism of all on board as we fulfill our obligation to contribute to the safety of life at sea wherever we are in the world,” said the Canberra’s commanding officer, Capt. Terry Morrison, in a statement. The men were found in good condition, and an Australian military helicopter was able to land on the beach and give them food and water. A Micronesian patrol vessel was due to pick them up.

They made a phenomenal start to 2020 at home, upping the ante from a half- time 7-5 lead in Week 1 v Hicks Bay with five second-half tries in a 45-5 win.

Kevin Bright and Murray Murton were awarded life membership at the club’s annual general meeting late last month for their outstanding support and ongoing service. Murton said he was encouraged by a cricket friend to give bowls a go and enjoyed some of the similarities to his sport. He joined the club in 1996. “I came along and found that it had all these elements cricket had, like line and length.” Murton is now club president. This is his second stint in the role. The first was in 2006- 07. He had become a committee member three years after joining the club, became vice- president in 2004-05 and was duly elected president. He has also served as the club’s secretary and treasurer. He is now co-treasurer and has been club bar manager for the past 15 years. He’s still an active competitive bowler, and has won 10 Gisborne-East Coast Centre titles and a gold star — awarded for winning five centre tournaments. He expects to receive the “bar” for his second lot of five centre titles some time this year. Bright joined the club in 1994 and was elected on to the committee four years later. He has served as vice-president twice and has been on the social committee for 20 years. He took up bowling on a “spur of the moment” decision to try it, giving up golf to play. “A friend of mine talked me into coming in and having a roll-up and I took a liking to it.” Both men said it was an honour to be recognised for the work they put into the club. “You give service to the club to help out, that’s the important part, and you feel very MEMBERS FOR LIFE: Kahutia Bowling Club members Kevin Bright (left) and Murray Murton have been awarded life humble when they honour you,” Murton said. membership of the club.
