Brinkley CFS outrage
Brinkley Country Fire Service's truck is to be sold and its members swallowed by another units – to the members' disgust.
"Murray Bridge council has been trying to get rid of us for the last two years," unit captain Mr Robert Humphrey said.
But South ward councillor Mr Lui Fabbian said the need at Brinkley was not as great as at Monarto.
Festival defends crowd figures
Sixties Music Festival organisers have hailed the three-day carnival a success despite opposition from angry Bridge Street traders.
Festival coordinator Mr Peter Dycer said there were 5000 to 6000 people at the event.
However, traders such as Bells manager Mr Kevin Mahoney were unhappy the road had been closed off for the three days.
Stabbing renews shelter demands
Last month's stabbing of a Murray Bridge woman has renewed calls for a women's shelter in the town.
The woman's husband was charged with attempted murder.
Supported Accommodation Centre manager Ms Di Horrocks said women's lives continued to be at risk while there wasn't a haven from family violence.
Democrats' candidate at M Bridge
Food labelling laws and buying Australian-made products are high on the list of priorities of Australian Democrats' Barker candidate Ms Regine Andersen.
Ms Andersen said that if everyone spent $50 a week on 100 per cent Australian-made goods, it would save the nation $20 billion a year, create 500,000 new jobs and get Australia out of recession.
Hills crash out on lawn
Murray Bridge upset hot favourite Hills in an inter-association tennis match played on Sunday on lawn at Murray Bridge.
The biggest surprise of the day was the win by Tailem Bend champion Glenmore Hattam over Mount Barker's Craig Wilson, who is ranked number two in country SA.
