Bulletin 150213
15
Alleged exploitation of journalists, inap- propriate misuse of funding from Anglo America and mismanagement at a new Tzaneen community newspaper, The Tribe, has been denied by its owner, Mr Abel Mongwe — and he threatened the Bulletin to “leave me alone” and “don’t mess with me in any way whatsoever”. Mongwe’s wife, Ms Tantaswa Jozana, is a senior employee of Anglo American’s Sebenza Fund. It is alleged that funds meant for the newly established newspaper, having only published four (4) editions since No- vember-December last year, were rather used to purchase luxury cars, pay a de- posit on a house in Aqua Park and to buy gymnasium equipment for the launch- ing of OMG Health and Fitness Gym in Nkowankowa. We met with Mongwe yesterday (Thurs- day), aſter he had initially refused to talk to us. On Wednesday he said that he knew about the Bulletin and he did not want to have anything to do with us. We told him that we wanted to give him an opportu- nity to tell his side of the story. Yesterday he called again and said he wanted to meet with us. He said that his company (The Tribe) had never been spon- sored by Anglo American and allegations that R2 million in grant money had been allocated to the newspaper is not true. He also gave assurance that the news- paper will be published again later during the year, as he is still waiting for the Media Diversity and Development Agency to review his propos- al. “The reason we have not been publishing is due to the fact that the MDDA asked to review four of our published editions before they could as- sist us with funding. This was emphati- cally denied (yester- day) by the MDDA’s acting project direc- tor, Mr Lindi Nkosi. “Mongwe’s claim of ‘four publications before funding’ is not one of our cri- teria. We only fund established busi- nesses. We also don’t have a pen- ding application and we don’t know (of) a Mr Monge. On the issue of a number of the newspa- per’s staff members who told us that they were not paid as per their agreements with Mongwe he said, “I can confirm that all my staff were paid in full for the work they produced”. According to reliable sources, who wish not to be named for fear of victimisation, they were not surprised that the paper was not doing as well as it had promised them. They allege that they were under- paid, contrary to the agreement they had with their employer. “We had agreed on R100 per photo and R2 per centimeter-col- umn, but were surprised when we were told at a later stage that we will only get R50 per photo and R1,50 per cm/col”, said a source. However, when Mongwe was asked about this, he said: “There are only two people who have not received their salary as a result of financial strain, but we are working on seling it as soon as possible. I however, cannot be dragged into any dealings with Anglo or even my wife for that maer”. The majority of those who worked for The Tribe are said to be desperately look- ing for employment, while others are still hoping the newspaper’s financial woes will be resolved so they can get back to their work. Anglo American’s Louwrens de Jager (at AA’s head office in Johannesburg) could not confirm any investigation into AA’s al- leged sponsorship of The Tribe yesterday. He confirmed that Jozana is an employee of Anglo. “We are not aware of these al- legations, but we will immediately mobi- lise our security personnel to look into the maer,” he said. “Anglo will not allow or accept any mis- conduct and/or abuse of grant money for community projects. We are not aware of any grant to The Tribe, but our se- curity personnel will investigate this thing thoroughly,” De Jager said. • Mongwe warned us that should we publish any story in- volving his wife or anything other than what he told us, he will take action against the Bulletin.

Community Newspaper covering the Tzaneen area in the Limpopo Province, South Africa
Transcript of Bulletin 150213
Alleged exploitation of journalists, inap-propriate misuse of funding from Anglo America and mismanagement at a new Tzaneen community newspaper, The Tribe, has been denied by its owner, Mr Abel Mongwe — and he threatened the Bulletin to “leave me alone” and “don’t mess with me in any way whatsoever”.
Mongwe’s wife, Ms Tantaswa Jozana, is a senior employee of Anglo American’s Sebenza Fund.
It is alleged that funds meant for the newly established newspaper, having only published four (4) editions since No-vember-December last year, were rather used to purchase luxury cars, pay a de-posit on a house in Aqua Park and to buy gymnasium equipment for the launch-ing of OMG Health and Fitness Gym in Nkowankowa.
We met with Mongwe yesterday (Thurs-day), after he had initially refused to talk to us. On Wednesday he said that he knew about the Bulletin and he did not want to have anything to do with us. We told him that we wanted to give him an opportu-nity to tell his side of the story.
Yesterday he called again and said he wanted to meet with us. He said that his company (The Tribe) had never been spon-sored by Anglo American and allegations that R2 million in grant money had been allocated to the newspaper is not true.
He also gave assurance that the news-paper will be published again later during the year, as he is still waiting for the Media Diversity and Development Agency to review his propos-al. “The reason we have not been publishing is due to the fact that the MDDA asked to review four of our published editions before they could as-sist us with funding.
This was emphati-cally denied (yester-day) by the MDDA’s acting project direc-tor, Mr Lindi Nkosi. “Mongwe’s claim of ‘four publications before funding’ is not one of our cri-teria. We only fund established busi-nesses. We also don’t have a pen-ding application and we don’t know (of) a Mr Monge.
On the issue of a number of the newspa-per’s staff members who told us that they were not paid as per their agreements with Mongwe he said, “I can confirm that all my staff were paid in full for the work they produced”.
According to reliable sources, who wish not to be named for fear of victimisation, they were not surprised that the paper was not doing as well as it had promised them. They allege that they were under-paid, contrary to the agreement they had with their employer. “We had agreed on R100 per photo and R2 per centimeter-col-umn, but were surprised when we were told at a later stage that we will only get R50 per photo and R1,50 per cm/col”, said a source. However, when Mongwe was asked about this, he said: “There are only
t w o people who
have not received their salary as a result of financial
strain, but we are working on settling it as soon as possible. I however, cannot be dragged into any dealings with Anglo or even my wife for that matter”.
The majority of those who worked for The Tribe are said to be desperately look-ing for employment, while others are still hoping the newspaper’s financial woes will be resolved so they can get back to their work.
Anglo American’s Louwrens de Jager (at AA’s head office in Johannesburg) could not confirm any investigation into AA’s al-leged sponsorship of The Tribe yesterday.

any grant to The Tribe, but our se-curity personnel will investigate this thing thoroughly,” De Jager said.
• Mongwe warned us that should we publish any story in-volving his wife or anything other than what he told us, he will take action against the Bulletin.

Anglo investigatesthe alleged spending of “a R2m grant” by the shortlived “The Tribe” newspaper in Tzaneen, after allegations of mismanage-ment and failure to pay agreed salaries and fees to employees
Aanhouer wen! Die swaargewig laaigraaf wat sedert die middel van November 2014 in die waterloop van die vlei-land in Tzaneen, tussen die R71 en Bert Booysen-straat, in ‘n modder-graf gelê het, is gered. Doemprofete het gesê
“nooit!”. Die eienaar het egter vasgebyt en gewen.
Nog ‘n trok val in GVDie Georges Valley-pad moes gister (Donderdag) weer vir verkeer gesluit word, nadat ‘n swaar trok met ‘n vrag hout op dieselfde plek in die pas omgeslaan het, waar ‘n trok en sleepwa verlede week afgestort en die lewens van drie mense geëis het. ‘n Ooggetuie het gesê ‘n groot deel van die pad is deur die wrak en vrag versper. Teen druktyd was geen verdere inligting oor die ongeluk bekend nie.
Dale Kenney Haven’t been rude to me at all but yes, they do stop where they want
to.....the most frustrating stop is at the three way intersection just before Macadamia also the stop on Boundary Street as they block access into our offices...it’s crazy...when the bus is in front of me I make a plan to get ahead. I feel for all the workers livings in our
area they wake up so early and walk miles to get to work on time. It would be sad to see this service taken away from them BUT Bus Stops must be arrange properly before a terrible accident happens
Melanie Brass Why don’t these bus companies arrange a set pick up and drop
of bus stop area? Would make things a lot
easier for everybody...

Vlieg begin vandeesweek ‘n nuwe reeks oor towerkuns en is druk besig met navorsing oor die onderwerp. Vlieg hou eint-lik meer van die woord goëlery. Sommer net. Soos wat sy navor-sing vorder, hoop hy om sy lesers iets te leer wat hulle nie geweet het nie, en dalk leer Vlieg sommer self ook iets. Hy sal maar berig soos hy vorder.
In vandag se eerste aflewering in die reeks berig Vlieg oor towerkuns, genaamd simpa-tieke goëlery.
Simpatieke goëlery is ‘n magiese verskyn-sel wat veronderstel dat soortgelyke voor-werpe mekaar affekteer. In die homeopatie word dit, vrylik vertaal, genoem soort af-fekteer soort, of op Ingels, like affects like. In die antropologiese wêreld is dit een van die oudste vorms van goëlery.
Die bekendste voorbeeld hiervan is voo-doo-poppe wat hul oorsprong in Haïti het. Hier maak die goëlaar ‘n afbeelding, in hier- die geval ‘n pop, van iets of iemand wat die teiken van sy goëlery is en glo dat wat hy ookal met die pop aanvang, ook met die teikenpersoon gebeur. Byvoorbeeld: as die pop gepynig word deur dit met naalde te steek, sal die teiken soortgelyke pyn ervaar. Hoewel pyniging die gewildste gebruik hi-ervoor is, kan dit blykbaar ook vir genesing gebruik word.
Dié gebruik is egter nie uniek aan Haïti nie. Frazier rapporteer dat:
For thousands of years ago it was known to the sorcerers of ancient India, Babylon, and Egypt, as well as of Greece and Rome, and at this day it is still resorted to by cunning and malignant savages in Australia, Africa, and Scotland. Thus the North American In-dians, we are told, believe that by drawing the figure of a person in sand, ashes, or clay, or by considering any object as his body, and then pricking it with a sharp stick or doing it any other injury, they inflict a correspond-
ing injury on the person represented. For example, when an Ojebway In-dian desires to work evil on any one, he makes a little wooden image of his enemy and runs a needle into its head or heart, or he shoots an arrow into it, believing that wherever the needle pierces or the arrow strikes
the image, his foe will the same instant be seized with a sharp pain in the correspond-ing part of his body; but if he intends to kill the person outright, he burns or buries the puppet, uttering certain magic words as he does so. The Peruvian Indians molded im-ages of fat mixed with grain to imitate the persons whom they disliked or feared, and then burned the effigy on the road where the intended victim was to pass. This they called “burning his soul.”
Insgelyk word dit ook in sekere tradisies geglo dat om ‘n skets te maak van ‘n sekere gebeurtenis, sal meebring dat so ‘n gebeur-tenis sál plaasvind. Dit is byvoorbeeld een van die voorgestelde verduidelikings van rotstekeninge in grotte, voorheen aan Vlieg bekend as Boesmantekeninge. ‘n Skets van ‘n suksesvolle jagtog sal meebring dat die jagtog wel suksesvol is.
In die alternatiewe medisyne kom simpa-tieke goëlery dikwels voor onder die dek-mantel van, weer Vlieg se vrylike vertaling, die leerstelling van sinjatuur — op Ingels die doctrine of signatures. Dit veronderstel dat alles op die een of ander manier gemerk is om die gebruik daarvan aan te dui. Byvoor-beeld sal ‘n plant met spiesvormige blare ide-aal wees om spieswonde mee te behandel, ‘n plant met geel sap vir die behandeling van geelsug, materiaal van ‘n dier of plant wat lank lewe om die mens se lewe te verleng en iets in die vorm van ‘n wortel om iets anders wat soos ‘n wortel lyk beter te laat werk.
Ongelukkig kon geen wetenskaplike na-vorsing nog enige bewyse vind dat sim-patieke goëlery in die natuurlike wêreld
voorkom nie. Vlieg ken egter baie mense wat in enige
beesmis sal glo, daarom dat hy op grond van hul geloof vandag sy lyf ‘n bietjie goëlaar hou.
Vlieg was nogal besig. Hy het 37 poppe gemaak, van vet en graan en moes al die pad Kaap toe om dit voor gister in Adder-leystraat te gaan verbrand. Hy het nog 37 houtkoppe (die volle poppe sou te groot wees vir vervoer) gemaak, wat hy kort-kort met ‘n vlieëplak bykom as dit vir Vlieg lyk of hulle ledig is, en beplan moontlik om hulle met verdrag te verbrand of te begrawe. Vlieg het nog nege gemaak, agt swartes en ‘n witte wat ‘n facelift gehad het, ‘n blou T-hemp aan het en lelik dans. Hulle lyk net so lus vir niks doen, maar Vlieg sal hulle sake vir hulle werk. Vlieg het een van sy neefs, Dag, gevra om op die grootste een te piepie, want Dag-vlieg lewe net een dag. Vir die wis en die on-wis het Vlieg sy wortel nie vir phytophtera behandel nie.
En toe moes Vlieg nog teken ook. Hy het ‘n groot kragstasie geteken wat werk, met baie liggies wat brand en ‘n klomp werkers met oorpakke wat onderhoudswerk doen by die kragstasie. Toe teken hy ‘n klomp waterpype wat nie lek nie en krane waar water uitkom. Hy teken toe verder ‘n baie mooi pad sonder slaggate en met strepe, wittes en geles en baie kat-ogies. Toe teken hy ‘n skool met wit en swart kinders, almal met boeke en almal met goeie punte.
Toe teken hy ‘n hospitaal met beddens, teaters, medisyne, regte dokters en verpleeg-sters wat nie slaap nie. En ‘n polisiekantoor met polisiekarre met petrol en maer polisie-manne wat skelms vang. Sy laaste prentjie voordat hy te moeg geword het om verder te teken, was die Uniegebou met mense in wat regtig werk, net die waarheid en niks nons-ens praat nie en nie steel nie.
Vlieg kan sweer hy het aan die slaap geraak met ‘n hees stem in sy ore …my precious…
Busse van (hoofsaaklik) Great North Transport is besig om motoriste in veral Adshadestraat, Aqualaan en Pieter Joubert-straat in Tzaneen soggens en weer smiddae met uitvaltyd die harnas in te jaag. Nie net parkeer hulle na willekeur in die een ryvlak en ontwrig die verkeer nie, maar as die talle motoriste wat agter en van voor opdam en ongeduldig raak, word hulle met allerhande vingertekens gedreig en selfs geskel. Het jy enige ondervinding hiervan — en in dien wel, wat sê jy?
Busses from (mainly) Great North Transport are causing a great deal of anger and frustration amongst motorists going to and coming from work along Adshade Street, Aqua Ave and Pieter Joubert Street. Not only do they disrupt traffic by parking in the road as they please, but they are quick to reply with finger and verbal insults or threats to irate motorist that are blocked in on both sides of the road. Do you have any experience thereof — if so, what do you have to say about it?

The attempts by minister Pravin Gordhan to bring Mal-amulele to normality have failed, as the community took another resolution to continue the shutdown until their claim for a stand-alone municipality is heard.
Gordhan and a number of other high ranking leaders met several stakeholders in Malamulele. Gordhan explained several options that could be considered to improve service delivery in their area.
However, when the com-munity task team presented
the options to the people on Sunday it was rejected.
Meanwhile schools and businesses remain closed in and around Malamulele. Even the Spaza shops in the villages remain closed. Pub-lic buildings, amongst oth-ers a high school, have been damaged by protesters. In some cases buildings have burnt down.
Roads in the area have be-come unsafe, since protes-tors set up road blocks where they claim “toll” fees from motorists — and in some cas-es vehicles have been stoned.
Marula fruit is more than just the ele-phants’ favourite fruit; it is an economic drive with a huge boost for rural women around the Mopani district who brew it for commercial purposes.
To kick-start this year’s drive, the MEC for Economic Development, Environ-ment, and Tourism, Mr Seaparo Sekoati, launched the tenth Marula Festival, an event that benefits not only rural women who brew Marula beer, but also local busi-ness people around the Phalaborwa area.
According to Sekoati, about R40m is generated during the annual Marula festival. “In a small town like this, that amount of money makes a huge dif-
ference to ordinary people running small businesses,” he said. This year women from the thirteen co-operatives around Phalaborwa will benefit from the sale of 12 000 litres of Marula beer for pub-lic consumption by the revellers during the festival, from 20-28 February.
The festival has been growing steadily year after year, also drawing more and more people from neighbouring African
countries. This has resulted in a need to change the venue to something bigger. “Last year I promised that a new venue should be found and I will announce it in September,” said Sekoati.
Marula festival a boost for Phala
Phalaborwa Mayor Anna Sono, Marula beer brewer Grace Mok-homole, MEC Seaparo Sekoati, Josephina Hlungwani and Bibi Kotsedi, the acting CEO of Limpopo Tourism are seen here
tasting a fresh batch of Marula beer.
Police officers are seen rushing to ascertain the cause of yet another building being on fire during the recent visit of minister
Pravin Gordhan and the Police minister in Malamulele.
Malamulele community to continue with shutdown
The issue of Malamulele getting its own municipality remains vague, despite numerous visits by the minister for Cooperative Governance, Housing and Traditional Affairs, Mr Pravin Gordhan.
Malamulele is still in a state of chaos and four high schools have been severe-ly damaged by fire. Other government buildings as well as private property have also been destroyed or damaged by fire.
“The kind of demand by this commu-nity is one that will take time to resolve,” said Gordhan when he was asked about the progress of his negotiations with the churches and community stakeholders,
Gordhan said the government started a process to review all municipalities around the country and reduce those that were not financially viable, so that by 2016 there would be fewer municipalities.
He said the government wants “to de-velop a package” that would suit the community of Malamulele in terms of service delivery. “We want to get an in-dependent audit done and the task team will come back to us on these issues and say how we could proceed in order to make progress in this area,” he said.
The MEC for COGHSTA in Limpopo, Ms Makoma Makhurupetje, said the
provincial government was committed to finding a quick solution for Malam-ulele. “From the provincial government we’ve committed ourselves to dealing with both the issue of the demarcation board and service delivery, in order to get the situation in Malamulele to return to normal as soon as possible,” she said.
When asked about a plan to avoid people burning down schools around Malamulele, Police minister Nkosinathi Nhleko said the Police were employing special investigations to tract down the suspects, since this was not being done by a mob but rather by individuals.
Will Malamulele get own municipality?
The war against rhino poaching needs collective involvement between the Kruger National Park and the communities alongside the park, accor- ding to Sanpark’s Maj Gen Johan Jooste, the commanding officer of special projects.
Speaking during a handover of R170 000 which were donated by various stakeholders, Jooste said increasing the number of rangers in the park was not an option since it would add to the cost of maintaining the park. “We would
need to accommodate them and pay their sala-ries and all other logistics,” he said.
“We need more intelligence and the support from the communities, because if the poachers are not welcome in the community they won’t be effective in their attacks,” he said.
The main donor was Mr Frank Haas, who do-nated R70 000, followed by the Polokwane Ro-tary Club with R40 000. The rest of the money was donated by several other stakeholders in-cluding Sanpark’s honorary rangers.
Jooste said the funds would be used for heli-copter fuel. “With our heli’s constantly in the air, the money for the fuel is running out, more so because Kruger is so big that we spend some R3m on helicopter fuel per year,” he said.

Attempted murderA man was shot, allegedly by a Somali tuck-shop owner know by the name of David, in Bolobedu over the weekend. The victim re-portedly went and bought a light bulb from the tuck shop. He went home and discovered it was not working. When he returned the light bulb to the shop, a fight ensued between him, the shop owner and another Somali male.
He reportedly tried to run but was shot at his back allegedly by one of the Soma-lis. The victim is since admitted at Kgapane Hospital and no arrest has been made. The police are still investigating the wherea-bouts of the suspect.

The driver of the car together with a third passenger suffered serious injuries and were taken to Sekororo Hospital. The cause of the accident is reportedly unknown; how-ever, the Police say they are investigating a case of culpable homicide.
Boys drownAfter three boys aged between four and twelve drowned in two separate incidents in the area, the SAPS Tzaneen cluster warns parents to take extra care of their children, especially during the rainy season. Samuel Matshusa (4) drowned after he fell into an open toilet pit
full of rain water in Mugwazeni Village out-side Letsitele. Matshusa was reportedly play-ing next to the pit. Tebatoo Simango (12) and Tshepho Mkhabela(12) from Mawa Village in Bolobedu also drowned while swimming in-side Merikoma River outside the village. Tza-neen SAPS spokesman Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe says a docket has been opened for the boys’ drowning and investigations are underway.
Body found on the roadThe body of a middle aged man around his twenties was found with serious head injuries and a broken left leg lying near Tenby Gar-dens along the Georges Valley road between Tzaneen and Polokwane over the weekend. The Tzaneen SAPS say at the moment it is not known what happened to the man. He could have been hit by a vehicle or more. There is
also no identification of the deceased. The police request anyone with information or anyone missing a family member to go to the station and assist in identifying the person.
Murder at a farmA man identified as Maswazi Phillemon Chaveni was found dead in his shack on a farm in George’s Valley over the weekend. Chaveni, who stayed alone in the shack, was reportedly no longer seen in the area for some time. His relatives became worried when he also no longer answered their calls. They went to visit him over the weekend and found him dead in his shack with his hands tied at the back with a plastic rope. The shack was report-edly locked from the outside with a padlock. The Police are investigating the case. There are no suspects at this stage.
Rhino war needs involvement
Seen at the handing over were the chairperson of honorary rang-ers, Mr John Turner, Mr Thomas Mbhokota, a sectional ranger, Maj Gen Jooste, Ms Lois Hardy, a member of the honorary rangers, and Mr Frank Haas.

Some seventy people gathered at Twig’s Decadent Cupcakes in Tzaneen for the ‘Coffee for Marcelle Day’ on Saturday morning. Marcelle van Vuuren, owner of a hair salon in Tzaneen, and her friend Car-la Swart, a well known cyclist, were involved in a head-on-collision near Soekmekaar on 20 December. Carla died and Marcelle sustained multiple injuries. Both her legs were amputated above the knees and she’s still in a Pretoria hospital.
Coffee mugs and T-shirts bearing Marcelle’s name
were sold and there was live music. Candles with special holders for Carla were passed around and there was a minute’s silence for her. Mss Dale Ken-ney and Magda Bootha, both members of the Tza-neen Care Group, gave words of encouragement to Marcelle and both families in their speeches.
Marcelle’s mother was with her daughter at the hospital but her father, Mr Dawie van Vuuren, at-tended with his golf team. All were dressed in light blue T-shirts bearing the slogan ‘Healing 4 Marcelle.’

Vandag ver-skyn die
sewende aflewering in ‘n spesiale reeks deur Me Margie van Tonder oor spelterapie. Vandag vra sy of jy jou kind ken. Kontak haar by 084 414 6166 of 015 307 5029 om navraag te doen.
Soos elke kind se persoon-likheid verskil, so verskil elke ouer se hantering van sy/haar kinders (ouerskap-styl).
Ouerskapstyle kan verdeel word in drie groe-pe (ook maar net riglyne, omdat mense verskil): Die outoritêre ouer, die per-missiewe ouer en die be-grypende ouer.
Die outoritêre ouer het vaste idees oor reg en verkeerd. Kinders word beheer en gedomineer en het nie ‘n sê nie, want
die ouer weet van beter. Kinders uit outoritêre ouerhuise kan die volgen-de gedragspatrone toon: 1. Omdat hul nie geleent-heid tot probleemoplos-sing kry nie, voel hul ontoereikend, skaam en onseker en is bang om verantwoorde-likheid te aanvaar. 2. Hierdie kinders kan in opstand kom en veral tydens adolessensie kan ernstige konflik tussen ouer en kind ontstaan. Hul kan vyandig, ag-gressief en baasspelerig in verhoudings wees en hulle tot leuens wend.
Die permissiewe ouer bied sy kind baie vryheid en byna geen perke nie. Die ouer sien homself nie as opvoeder met ve-rantwoordelik heid nie. Kinders uit permissiewe huise voel dikwels dat niemand vir hul omgee
nie. Hul kan ook onveilig en onseker voel.
Hierdie kinders het nie respek vir hul ouers en an-der mense nie en kan self-sugtig en sonder waarde-ring optree.
Die derde ouer is aan-vaardend of begryp-end. Hierdie ouer probeer sy kind verstaan en kom-munikeer respek en aan-vaarding. Openlike en eer-like gesprekke vind plaas tussen ouer en kind. Die kind het vrymoedigheid, omdat hy gerespekteer word en nie gekleineer word nie.
Hierdie ouer is betrokke, maar dis nie ‘n betrokken-heid wat afhanklikheid voed nie. Die begrypende ouer kan aanvaarding kommunikeer, omdat hy selfagting, selfbegrip en selfaanvaarding het.Bron: Van Wyk, D. 1983. Die verhouding tussen ouer en kind.

OpportunisteSakelui in ons omgewing is die afgelope dekade al byna male sonder tal deur op-portuniste met beloftes van “spesiale” publikasies “vir die omgewing” ore aangesit. Die tragedie is dat dit byna elke keer met geldelike verlies gepaard gaan.
Pas het dit nou weer gebeur. ‘n Week-blad wat beloof het om al wat ‘n ander plaaslike publikasie is (hier is net twee) gaan insluk of verdryf of tot oorgawe te gaan dwing, het van die toneel verdwyn — nog voor dit behoorlik verskyn het.
Ons het drie uitgawes (dus drie weke) se pogings gesien. dalk was daar een of twee meer, voor die (geborgde) geld opgeraak het. Eintlik was die geld klaar-blyklik al vroeër op, want personeel ver-tel dat hulle nie eers aan die einde van die eerste maand salarisse ontvang het nie.
Sommige het uit ander poste bedank, om by die nuwe publikasie-ster aan die oosterkim aan te sluit.
Ons verlekker ons hoegenaamd nie in die mislukking nie, want ons onderskryf ‘n vryemarkstelsel en moedig gesonde mededinging waarin die reëls van die etiek gerespekteer word, geesdriftig aan.Dit bring tog die beste uit al die spelers.
Maar ons voel jammer vir sakelui wat nogeens verloor het en waarsku nou weer: bly maar eerder by gevestigde produkte wat die toets van die tyd deurstaan het.

Ons Mening The Message
Nasa and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration recently declared 2014 as the hot-test year on earth since record-tak-ing began in 1880.
According to scientists the increase in average temperatures is likely to have a major impact on human health in ways that will reduce productivity and men-tal well-being significantly.
Mariska van Aswegen, spokesperson of Pharma Dynamics — a leading sup-plier of anti-depressants and advocate for mental health in SA — says the av-erage temperatures in Southern Africa have risen by 1,5° C over the past centu-ry as opposed to 0,8° C globally, which poses a more immediate threat for us.
“As SA begins to experience longer and more intense heat waves, so too the degree to which individuals suffer from heat stress will increase and fur-ther compromise mental well-being.”
Several research papers from around the globe confirm the negative impact of heat waves on mental health. The most noteworthy involves a 13-year Australian study which found that ex-treme heat exposure exacerbate symp-toms of dementia, depression and anxi-ety. Admissions to psychiatric hospitals also increased by 64% during periods of prolonged heat exposure.
Van Aswegen notes that the ten hot-test years on record have all occurred since 1998 and that the overall trend is up.
“The sad reality is that the majority of people won’t be able to escape the swel-tering heat in air-conditioned offices. Many will have to continue to brave heat waves in inadequately cooled
homes, offices, schools, construction sites and factories. Not to mention those working outside harvesting in the fields.”
According to Van Aswegen an av-erage temperature of 30° C for two days and longer would be considered a health alert. “If you do experience ill mental health, you need to take ex-tra care of yourself in extremely hot weather conditions. Individuals taking psychotropic medications are at a high-er risk for heatstroke, since these medi-cations can interfere with the body’s ability to regulate heat.
“In extreme hot weather, there is an increased risk of dehydration and over-heating. Exposure to heat and direct sunlight can make symptoms of mental
ill health much worse and can further impair mood and energy levels.”
To keep cool when the mercury is ris-ing, Van Aswegen gives the following advice:
Stay out of the heat and direct sunlight, especially if you have been diagnosed with a mental health condition or experience any side effects from medication; Shut windows and pull down the shades when it is hot-ter outside and then open them when it’s cooler; Keep a spray bottle in the fridge to cool your face and extremities with water or take a cool shower or bath; Ensure you have adequate supplies of medication if extreme hot weather persists; Stay out of the sun and don’t go out between 11:00 and 15:00; If you have to go outdoors, take a bottle of
water with you to stay hydrated and eat small but regular meals; It’s best to seek out air-conditioned public spaces such as a shopping mall or community centre; Wear light and cool clothing.
“Isolation in extreme heat can make symptoms of mental ill health worse. Keep in daily contact with family, friends and neighbours. Those suffer-ing from depression can contact Phar-ma Dynamics’ toll-free helpline on 0800 205 026, which is manned by trained counsellors who are on call from 08:00 to 20:00, seven days a week.
“Should you feel mentally or physi-cally unwell or experience signs of heat stress such as dehydration, dizzi-ness, headaches, changes to breathing, heart rate and blood pressure, nausea, vomiting or cramps, contact your doc-tor immediately,” recommends Van Aswegen.
The Bible instructs us: “Judge not, that you be not judged” yet we so often judge others because they do not fit into our norm. Each of us will form our norms according to what we have been taught or have formulated.
God gave us a free will, we therefore can if we so choose to follow His example or not. By constantly judging others for what they wear, where they come from, what they look like, what religious group they belong to etc. are we truly following Jesus’ example?
How often do we criticize oth-ers often not knowing the full story? “You smoke, thus you are bad”
Life is full of choices and often it is said “Oh if we could only go back to the old days when things were so much better”. Were they really so much better, or was it just a perception that we had? Choosing the correct path is not an easy thing to do as there are so many temptations out there.
There is an old saying “Bet-ter the devil you know, than the devil you don’t” maybe there is a lot of truth in this saying, for we
will know how this person will react to what we say or do. We often form opinions of people by stereo- typing them, putting into little boxes of our own. Do we re-ally know this person?
There is only one person that knows us all and that is God. He knows us intimately. Wow! If we accept Him into our lives and ac-knowledge His power, His love for us then we will be able to see others as He does. With the Holy Spirit living in us we can change for the better. Often people are afraid of change, “this is what I was taught therefore it must be right.”
Changing for the good of oth-ers often helps us through many a crises in our lives, yet it is all about love. We often say we love someone yet do exactly the op-posite, what happens when love turns into despise even hatred? Is God still living within us or are we making excuses?
When we stand before God on judgement day all the truth will be revealed. Will we be prepared to face the consequences to find out that we judged to readily? Prayer is a powerful tool and we all need to pray more often.
Blessings.

Ons soek toeriste, maar
Indeed soJ C Fourie wri-tes by e-mail: Thank you for publishing my letter on 6 February 2015.
I see the slogan for your newspaper reads ‘Vreesloos die waarheid’ and I want to share truth today, without fear of consequences.
Today, I want to refer to your ‘Say your Say’ Facebook section on page 2 of your newspaper regarding the coat of arms on school uniforms.
You use the word ‘skoolwapen’ and indeed, it is a weapon. For instance the Buffalo bust on the Ben Vorster coat of arms repre-sents ‘Strength’ and their slogan reads ‘Stry tot oorwinning’ and in fact is a Biblical reference to overcoming obstacles with strength by unified spirit.
You might recall from Bible sto-ries that when Moses descended from the mountain, he found the Israelite people worshipping a golden calf which they con-structed from gold.
The Buffalo bust on the origi-nal coat of arms for Ben Vorster is golden as you can notice on the badge on Principal Chris De-
nysschen’s shirt on page 1 of the 6 February 2015 edition.
You can find the bust at the entrance to Ben Vorster High School and you can find this ex-act bust hanging on top of the entrance door to the Voortrekker Monument in Pretoria;http://media.economist.com/sites/default/files/cf_images/columns/2007w50/Johannes-burgThurs.jpg
To conclude, the coat of arms on uniforms enforces ‘Eendrag maak mag’ or ‘Unity is strength’.
Ek is trotsLinda Mienie van Tzaneen skryf per e-pos: Ai, ai me-vrou du Toit! Hoekom tog so venynig en aanvallend? Het ek dalk op jou fyne liddo-rings getrap?
Wat betref my belange in die stadsraad kan ek jou maar net antwoord dat ek baie trots op my sogenaamde belange is.
Wat die herwinning aanbetref is ek so bly dat jy so geesdriftig en passievol is. Miskien kan jy aan die publiek sê hoe jy herwin-ning op jou plaas doen (dalk kan
dit vir iemand tot voordeel wees!) Dalk kan jy som-mer ‘n streekher-w i n n i n g s -
projek begin en ‘n forum skep. Jy kan dalk net eers self die “afri-kabesem” uit toets deur voor jou eie voor- en agterdeur te vee.
Verder het ek nie die stadsraad nodig om die persoon wat die bourommel gestort het oor die vingers te tik nie. Ek het dit som-mer self gedoen as ‘n besorgde belastingbetaler van die die dorp en het hy dit in ‘n baie goeie gees ontvang en selfs onderneem om dit te gaan opruim.
Wat die “spruitjie” (neem tog kennis dat dit eintlik ‘n vleiland is) betref het jy geen kennis of ‘n gesprek met my gehad om uit te vind hoe ek daaroor voel of wat ek reeds daaromtrent gedoen het nie. Aangesien ek in die oonoog-likheid moet vaskyk moet jy jou dalk gerus weerhou van persoon-like kommentaar. In Spreuke 3:30 staan” Moenie ‘n man/vrou som-mer aankla as hy/sy nie kwaad aangedoen het nie”

Baletas go into making7Bulletin 13 Februarie 2015www.bulletin.us.com Search “Bulletin” Search “Laeveldbulletin”
In a move that has family and friends reeling, well-known Tzaneen farmers and business couple Peter and Maggie Baleta announced that they have bought a cheese farm in the Western Cape. They are relocating to the Western Cape to take over an exciting venture.
Maggie was born in Tzaneen, Peter is from Johannesburg and they moved to Tzaneen when he and Maggie married. The couple farmed in the Letsitele Valley with Maggie’s par-ents, Mike and Monica Amm, for eighteen years. Due to a land claim the family moved from Murlebrook Farms to Valencia Estate, situated on the edge of the Tzaneen Dam and continued farming on a smaller scale. Peter maintains a successful achar business in Nkowankowa.
Maggie, an interior decorator by training, immersed her-self in starting up crèches. She was involved in the start up of the Rural Foundation and started a community organisation called Lesedi.
The couple have three adult children. Hannah studied at UCT and Oxford and has just submitted her doctor-ate in Water Science. Nicholas did his cadetship through Maersk, qualifying recently as a Marine Engineer, and is off to sea soon. Matthew is doing honours in Geology at Stellenbosch University.
Maggie recalls, “In 1997 Peter and I were at the breakfast table discussing our childrens’ education. I didn’t want to send them far away. I suggested we start our own school and phoned Mr Howard Blight. We gathered a group of energet-ic and passionate people from Tzaneen and opened Stanford Lake College in 1998 — the rest is history. I was involved with SLC for fourteen years. I learnt so much at SLC and leave with a great sense of pride, as SLC has developed into a world-class independent high school.”
The couple felt they wanted one last massive challenge in their lives. Opportunity knocked in the strangest way. Last year, on a Mozambican beach, with family friends who farm in the Cape, Peter mentioned that he wanted to remain in agri -processing but needed a change. Maggie was in Namibia in September volunteering for the Desert Knights cycle race when
Peter phoned with news of a possible new venture. Klein River Cheese, which they have bought, is
ironically near a village called Stanford, 25 kilo-meters from Hermanus. Klein River Cheese, es-tablished twenty years ago, makes fourteen varieties of artisanal cheeses. The farm, with a staff of twenty, also
boasts a retail outlet, where locals and visitors can pur-chase their cheese, as well as a picnic shed that caters for picnics during summer.
Klein River Cheese won Dairy Product of the Year in 2014 and two bronze medals at the international cheese compe-tition in 2014. Klein River cheeses are available from Wool-worths, Spar, Checkers, Pick and Pay, Fruit and Veg and speciality delis throughout South Africa. The milk is bought from neighbouring farms.
Previous owners, Shelley and Riaan Lourens, will stay close at hand for a year and will remain the face of the cheese products until the first batches, made by the Baleta family, are ready to roll. Maggie met with the original cheese maker from Germany and consulted with him at Klein River. She also went on a two-day course at Stellenbosch University to learn the chemistry of cheese making. Work starts for the Baletas on 1 March.
Peter loves his Nguni cattle, which have now been sold, but will start a new cattle herd on the new 230 ha Stanford farm. Maggie says that having been born and raised in Tzaneen is a privilege and the family will always consider Tzaneen as ”the centre of the universe”, a common family saying. So it is
with a heavy heart that they are leaving Tzaneen but will often return to visit Maggie’s parents
and cherished extended family and friends.
Maggie, an ac-complished hostess who loves people
adds with a twinkle in her eye, “We hope
to welcome Tzaneen folk at our new home at Klein River Cheese in
the future”. — Sue Ettmayr

Die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se nuwe mu-sieksentrum het dié week afgeskop, met ‘n hele paar talentvolle kandidate. Me Mareli van der Walt is die af-rigter. Sy gaan sorg dat die kitaar-, klavier- en vioolspelers se sterre op die volgende kultuuraande van die Vossies helder skyn. Hou gerus die media dop vir aankondigings oor kultuuraande. Intussen is die skool se kultuurkomitee kliphard besig om geld in te samel vir die aktiwiteite wat voorlê. Mee Louise Jacobs en Sonia Scheepers is twee van die gewillige ouers van die skool wat hard werk aan geldinsamelings.
Die Vossies se kultuurleerlinge pas toe wat hulle by die verhooggrimeringkursus van me Alminda van der Merwe geleer
het. By elke plaaslike byeenkoms word daar geoefen en die skoolgemeenskap en lede van die publiek word dikwels as proefkonyne ingespan. ‘n Paar ouers het groot geskrik vir hul bloedjies se skielike kamma-kamma wonde.
‘n Rekordgetal (23) skuts van die Hoërskool Merensky se klub het verlede Saterdag in Gauteng aan ‘n nuwe formaat ABO/3di “Triple crown”-kompetisie deelgeneem. Nagenoeg vier honderd skuts van regoor die land het deelgeneem. Die kompetisie is ontwerp om die skuts se jagvaardigheid in moeilike terrein te toets.
Daar is van skuts verwag om op ‘n afstand na 2- of 3D-diereteikens te skiet. Elke skut het net een pyl om die hartarea van die “dier” te tref. Skuts skiet na twintig teikens op die dag en kan ‘n maksimum van twee honderd 200 punte verower, met twintig bo-nuspunte per dag.
Die Merensky-skuts het vier medaljes ve-rower: Canell Jackon het goud gekry, Pieter van der Merwe Silwer en Ockert le Roux en Beneche Jackson het elkeen brons verower.
Sewe van die skuts — Renart Botha, Ruan Genis, Beneche Jackson, Lin-Mari Theron, Ricus Warmenhoven, Schalk Warmenhoven en Pieter van der Merwe — het hul provin-siale kleure wat hulle in 2014 verwerf het, Saterdag ontvang.
Nege skuts spring ook weg met provinsiale kwalifiserende tellings vir 2015: Ockert le Roux, Renart Botha, Ruan Genis, Beneche en Canell
Jackson, Dawie Theron, Pieter van der Merwe, Adriaan Venter en Schalk Warmenhoven.
Die Merensky spanne het almal reeds tellings op die bord vir die
“ABO/3Di Triple Crown Schools League” wat van-jaar oor vier kompetisies beslis word. Die eerste span het 537 punte, die tweede span 503, die derde span 431 en die vierde span 367 punte behaal; wat bevestig dat die Merensky-klub ‘n gerekende krag in die boogskietwêreld is.
Prestasie ook by binneshuise kampioenskappe: Die Merensky-skuts het na Saterdag se moordende ABO-kampioenskappe in die bloedige hoëveldson Sondag aan die SANAA (South African National Archery Association) Gauteng se binneshuise kampioenskappe deelgeneem.
SANAA is geaffilieer by Sascoc en skuts kan
as hulle in dié kompetisie presteer, tot by die Olimpiese Spele vorder.
Dié kompetisies word binneshuis oor ‘n vaste afstand van 18,29 meter beslis. Daar is twee tipes teikens om van te kies: ‘n eenkol vir beginners en ‘n vyfkol vir die meer ervare skuts.
Die kompetisie word oor twaalf rondes van vyf pyle beslis. Daar word vier minute vir elke stel van vyf pyle toegelaat en sestig pyle word in totaal geskiet. Die toptelling per pyl is vyf punte, wat ‘n totaal gee van drie honderd punte. Die kompetisie duur ongeveer negentig minute en skuts het net een meter staanruimte.
In totaal het 183 skuts van regoor die land aan die kompetisie deelgeneem en vyftien van Merensky se skuts het hiervoor gekwalifiseer.
Merensky het vyf medaljes verower: goud vir Ri-cus Warmenhoven in die AMFU–C-klas,silwer vir Canell Jackson in die CF-FU-klas en Carissa Ivy in die JFBU-klas, brons vir Simoné Smith in die JFBU-klas en Pie-ter vd Merwe in die JMBU-klas.
Ses skuts het kwalifise-rende tellings vir kleure geskiet: Adriaan Venter, Pieter vd Merwe, Canell Jackson en Schalk War-menhoven het almal na-sionale kwalifiserende tellings behaal en Renart Botha en Leon Jardine provinsiale kwalifiser-ende tellings.

Carissa Ivy en Lin-Mari Theron staan gereed om met die pyle te laat waai, by Saterdag se byeenkoms.
Boogskuts spring goed wegCanelle Jackson het goud (Cubs mei-sies) en Beneche Jackson brons (jun-
ior meisies) verwerf.
Merensky-boogskiet-klub se lede wat die afgelope naweek in Pretoria gaan skiet het, wys duidelik dat hulle in hul skik is met hul prestasie in die
twee byeenkomste.
Die SA Landbou Onderwysve-reniging (Salov) is vyftien jaar gelede gestig, om landbouskole by te staan met die praktiese onderrig van landbouvakke. Tydens die jaarlikse konferen-sie vergader landbouleerkragte vanoor die land met die doel om landbou as vakgebied te bevorder en om gedagtes oor vakaanbiedings uit te ruil.
Merensky is vanjaar verteen-woordig deur mnre Willie Ste-
vens, die skool se adjunkhoof: agri-wetenskappe, en mnr Louis Fourie wat landboutegnologie op Plasieland aanbied. Verlede jaar se gr 12-vraestelle en uitslae is bespreek en oplossings om uitslae te verbeter, is deeg-lik ondersoek.
Stevens is tydens vanjaar se konferensie verkies tot SA-LOV se nasionale bestuur. Daar is min twyfel dat dit swaar gaan met landbouskole en Merensky is bevoorreg om tans ‘n positiewe groei in sy landbou-afdeling te ervaar.
Ondanks die versengende hitte op Dinsdagmiddag 3 Februarie, was die graad 8’s gevul met opwinding. Sowat 150 van die 200 graad 8 Plasies het ná skool opgedaag om nou reeds ‘n betekenisvolle nalatenskap aan Merensky te maak.
Hulle het ‘n nuwe laning koorsbome vanaf die hout-suile tot by die hoofhek van die skool geplant. Die dertig inheemse bome (Acacia xanthophloea) sal weekliks deur die leerlinge versorg word. Die skiewies gaan deur die loop van die jaar meer leer oor dié inheemse boom, die bome se groei monitor en groeikurwes trek terwyl hulle die bome die volgende vyf jaar vertroetel. Aan die einde van hul skoolloopbaan sal elkeen ‘n sertifikaat ontvang wat sy betrokkenheid by die nuwe laning gedenk.
Binnekort sal die indrukwekkende aangesig van die skool nog mooier vertoon met ‘n laning groen-geel stamme wat perfek pas by Plasieland se kenmerkende blou en geel kleure.

• Vervolg van bl 6opper. Of is dit dalk makliker om soos die spreekwoord sê dat die beste stuurman aan wal staan te wees.
Ter afsluiting wil ek graag se dat as die skoen jou pas moet jy dit maar aantrek aangesien my vorige skrywe nie aan jou gerig was nie maar aan die redakteur wat dit tog so geniet om tong in die kies grappies te maak!
Jy weet Langenhoven het by geleent-heid aan ‘n persoon wat ‘n ongevraag-de stelling in die parlement gemaak het gesê het ”Leë vaatjie hou jou kraan toe dan dink die mense straks jy is vol”.
Hiermee sluit ek my korrespon-densie met jou af aangesien ek nie my pêrels in die varkhok en woord-geveg wil gooi nie.
Ons het ook onlangs van die Kaap tot Kairo gereis en ek kan jou verseker dat die mense in Tzaeneen hulle ou
skoene agterna kan gooi en dat die wat gedurig so kla dit met die wit-brood en koek onder die arm doen. Groete en ‘n veilige reis deur ons mooi land en hou ons mooi dorp se naam hoog! • Sjoe, dit voel of die hoë temperature van die afgelope tyd nou in die koerant se briewekolom ingetrek het. Ons stop nou die korrespondensie oor dié saak, want die bedoeling is nie persoonlike gesprekke (aan-valle) nie, eerder standpuntstellings. Ten besluite — en na aanleiding van die ver-wysing na “die redakteur wat dit tog so ge-niet om tong in die kies grappies te maak”, en terwyl helse hitte nou ook ter sprake is — leen die nimlike “grappige” redakteur nou maar ook by Langenhoven: “Verbeel jou ‘n wêreld sonder skaterlag, sonder eens ‘n glimlag. Hemel op aarde, sal die fariseër sê. Uit so ‘n hemel sou ek wegloop hel toe.” — Redakteur

Die Letaba-gemeente van die Nederduits Hervormde Kerk (NHK) in Modjadjiskloof is in ‘n stryd om oorlewing. Geld is dringend nodig om te keer dat die gemeente ten gronde gaan, of noodwendig by die NHK in Tzaneen moet inskakel.
In ‘n poging om die gemeente te laat staande bly, bied hulle ‘n kom-petisie aan vir rugbyliefhebbers wat vanjaar se wêreldbekertoer-nooi in Brittanje wil bywoon. Dit is, sover bekend, die enigste kom-petisie van sy soort in die land en word in alle provinsies versprei.
Kaartjies word teen R100 stuk verkoop, waarin die wenner (vir vier persone) die toernooi van 1 Oktober tot 1 November kan by-woon. Dit is ‘n kontantprys van R200 000 en sluit reis-, verblyf- en wedstrydbywoningkoste in.
Een van die bemarkers, mnr Louis van der Westhuizen, sê 450 boekies met tien kaartjies elk is in omloop en moet voor einde April verkoop wees. Dit sal ‘n broodnodige stuwing vir die ge-meente se voortbestaan beteken.
Die kerk se leraar, ds Gerhard Viviers, het ‘n beroep na War-renton aanvaar en die gemeente word op die oomblik deur Tza-neen se leraar, ds Richard van der Westhuizen, bedien.

During December, some res-cued animals and birds were given a temporary home at the Riverside Wildlife Reha-bilitation Centre in Letsitele. These included a thick tailed bush baby (Otolemur crassi-caudatus), two wood owls (Strix woodfor-
dii) and one spotted eagle owl (Bubo africanus). They were all brought to the Stanford Lake Col-lege property for release, where the habitat is ideally suited to them.
The bush baby was a pet whose owners were no longer able to keep him, and he now is a ful-ly grown adult. One of the wood owls was an orphan who fell out of his nest and dogs killed his mother, whilst the history of the other is not known; however, they are both about the same age of approximately three months. The spotted eagle owl was rescued in the Trichardtsdal area.
Witnessed by a big group of pupils and teachers and some volunteers from Riverside, both the bush baby and the spot-
ted eagle owl were released in different areas of a forest close to Stanford Lake College. On the evening they were released, there was a hard shower of rain, which was a bit of a concern for the owl needing to fly; but the rain eased and both the owl and the bushbaby seemed calm when their boxes were opened and they were set free.
The owl soon got his bearings and was venturing around the forest; whilst the bushbaby was heard
calling about fifty metres from his release box. Their progress will be monitored closely for about two months, after which the boxes will be removed.
Again a small crowd of interested people gathered a couple of eve-nings later when the two wood owls (one male and one female) were re-leased just after sunset. Their box was placed in a tree near the Barn-
yard and other local resident birds immediately rec-ognised their presence and made warning calls.
Both owls were a bit tentative, but eventually took great leaps of faith and flew from their box into near-
by branches and then back and forth to the ‘home’ tree. They have been heard com-municating with one another in the nights following their re-lease, and have been observed looking set-tled. They will also be monitored for two months.
• Releasing these creatures at Stanford is another effort that re-enforces the Go green Eco-schools projects that the school embraces to the full. In this action
of releasing animals back to the wild where they belong, Stanford is teaching the youth to conserve and try and fix what humans take out of nature.

Die Hoërskool Merensky se atlete het Vrydag (6 Februarie) in Mokopane weer mooi by ‘n vierhoekige vriendskaplike atletiekbyeen-koms by die Hoërskool Piet Potgieter gepres-teer. Die Hoërskool Ellisras en die Hoërskool Louis Trichardt het ook deelgeneem..
Alhoewel Merensky tweede gekom het, was dit ‘n Merensky-atleet wat weer die mense laat gons het. Christelle Coetzer, die klein langasem van Merensky, het twee byeen-komsrekords laat spat (800 meter en 1 500 meter vir meisies o.14) en dit lyk of sy nou ‘n
geval is van hoe later, hoe kwa-ter. Sy is ook as die byeenkoms se beste junior meisies-atleet
aangewys en die 800 meter-rekord waarop sy verbeter het, het reeds sedert 1988 gestaan — dus 27 jaar!
Merensky en Piet Potgieter was in ‘n hewige wipplankstryd gewikkel, maar teen die ein-de van die dag was dit Piet Pot wat die twee-stryd gewen het..
Die blou span het goed vertoon op die baan en die veld en benewens Christelle is Phil-lemon Mabidilala as die naasbeste senior seun en Lilly Pohl as die derde beste senior meisies-atleet aangewys. Tertius Kruger het
ook die seuns o.19 se spiesgooirekord ver-beter, met ‘n afstand van 58,60 m.
Die Plasie-atlete lyk goed gefokus en berei hard voor vir die jaarlikse interhoër op 20 Februarie in die Peter Mokaba-stadion in Polokwane.
Die toptien van Merensky (met hul ASA-tabelpunte) is: Meisies: Christelle Coetzer (o.14) 1 500 m, 917 punte; Melissa Steenkamp (o.19) gewigstoot, 818; Precious Setwaba (o.16) gewigstoot, 811; Lilly Pohl (o.16) gewigstoot, 805; Carmi Venter (o.15) gewigstoot, 800; Elzaan Engelbrecht (o.16) gewigstoot, 797; Kesia Pohl (o.14) gewigstoot, 796; Merisca Steenkamp (o.19) gewigstoot, 783; Kgabo Mamorobela (o.15) 300 m-hekkies, 775; Steph-Marie de Lange (o.14) 300 m-hekkies, 775.

Bulls en Stormers oor-donder alles Rooi oë, seer duime en uitgerafelde senuwees sal ná dié naweek so volop soos Eskom-grap-pies wees.
Regstreekse uitsendings van Wêreldbeker-krieket, Superrugby en die internasionale sewesrugby in Amerika sal talle sportgees-driftiges van voordag tot laatnag voor hul televisiestelle hou.
Die duimvashouery vir die SA krieketspan en die SA spanne in die Superrugbyreeks sal nog weke lank duur, maar met ʼn bietjie geluk sal die sewesrugby al Maandagoggend ʼn goeie vrag vreugde bring.
Groot atletiek, tennis en gholf word ook uit-gesaai, maar te midde van die stortvloed sport sal baie TV-kykers jou sommer reguit vertel dat niks dié naweek belangriker as Saterdagaand se rugby tussen die Bulls en die Stormers is nie.

Vossies presteer in Polokwane
During a fantastic inter-primary ath-letics meeting at Dr Annecke Primary School in Letsitele, these three athletes from Unicorn Prima-ry in Tzaneen did their school proud. They are Makoma Pilusa (best senior field athlete), Lay-ha Mohamed (best junior girl) and Kian None (best senior
field athlete).
In ‘n naelbytstryd die afgelope Saterdag het die eerste krieketspan van die Hoërskool Merensky die Limpopo-wenners van die T20 Coca-Cola-reeks geword. Merensky, Stanford Lake College, PHS en Ben Vorster het kragte gemeet op ‘n dag met vele uitdagings, want die halfeindronde sowel as die eindstryd is op dieselfde dag beslis.
In die halfeindstryd het die Plasies teen Stanford te staan gekom. Merensky het eerste gekolf en ‘n doelwit van 171 lopies vir slegs 2 paaltjies aan SLC gestel. Die Plasies het met kragtige boulwerk die Stanfordians vir slegs 62 lopies uitgehaal.
Merensky se uitblinkers was AJ Fourie (5 in 4 beurte) en Rassie Pretorius wat ‘n puik 111 lopies aangeteken het. Rassie is ook die beste kolwer van die reeks aangewys, en Asad Pa-tel is aangewys as die beste alsydige speler
van die reeks.In die eindronde het
die Plasies hul bure aangedurf. Die Vossies het eerste gaan kolf en 119 lopies vir 9 paal-tjies behaal. En toe, raar maar waar, eindig Merensky se kolfbeurt ook op 119.
‘n Ekstra naelbyt-beurt is toe gespeel, waarin Merensky 7 lopies en Ben Vorster
slegs 2 kon behaal. Merensky beklink die wedstryd dus met 5 lopies. Die Plasies het ‘n welkom R33 000 hiermee losgeslaan.
Die Plasie se uitbinkers was Asad Patel met die bal (3 paaltjies) en ook met die kolf (44 nun) en AJ Fourie (43 lopies).
Vandag (13 Februarie) ontmoet die span dié van die Hoërskool Menlopark in die Titans se halfeindstryd (in Pretoria). Die span wat deurdring speel Sondag in Benoni om die Titans-wenners te bepaal.
Tzaneen se mense hou duim vas dat Meren-sky ook dié beker kan huis toe bring.
In ‘n verrassende uitslag, het die Plasies se groentjies in die o.15-groep Saterdag teen Jeugland in Kemptonpark gespeel. Merensky het eerste gekolf en 190 almal uit na 45 beurte aangeteken. Jeugland is uitgehaal vir slegs 95 lopies na slegs 20 boulbeurte. Die Plasies se stewige oorwinning met 96 lopies word aan skitterende boul- en veldwerk toegeskryf.
Nie minder nie as vyf
hokkiespe-lertjies van die Laerskool Dr Annecke in Letsitele het provinsi-ale kleure vir hokkie ver-werf! Hulle is o.12- en o.13-spelers. Hier is Renate Botha, Nhlamulo Shilubane, Rivoningo Mangalana, Palesa Shiluvane en Elzaan Espach, wat eers-
daags in hul Limpopo-kleure kan rondstap.

Laat hoor ‘n uiters ontstelde Nostrofredamus Pohl verlede week weer van hom daar uit Vishoek. Wat gaan aan? Superakbie is op hande en die Wiepie?/Stommerds is die enigste span wat Oubal nog nie dié jaar beledig het nie, wil hy weet.
Wat weet julle Kapenaars wat ons kenners hier in die Noorde skryf en hoekom is dit skielik vir jou belangrik, verneem Oubal en voeg versigtig by: julle het mos niks te vrees nie, want danksy Oubal se gedwonge steun laasjaar is julle immers die huidige Curriebekerkampioen.
Hulle is nie agterlik nie, sê Nostrofred, hulle lees Oubal aanlyn op die Bulletin se webblad om op die hoogte van tendense te bly. Dis vir hom duidelik dat SA spanne telkens hulle spelpeil lig wanneer hulle onder Oubal se gifpen deurloop, soos die verpestelike Bulle teen die Sanlam-Sarasene voorverlede week.
En die Leeutjies wat die Pukke vermorsel het, en selfs die B-afdeling Haaitjies wat Bakkies-hulle se Toulon in hul knoffel laat stik het.
Ter wille van ‘n suksesvolle seisoen dring hy daarop aan dat Oubal iets negatiefs oor die Stommerds skryf, seg neef Nostro!
‘Tja, Oubal het self nie besef hy is só invloedryk nie, maar hy betwyfel of selfs hy die Kapenaars tot ‘n Superakbiekampioen kan skryf. Daarvoor het hulle net te veel probleme. Die seisoen het skaars begin en hulle is al klaar weer sonder slotte, met Ysterbeth (weereens) en Manual Carizza wat beseer is.
Oubal dink nie Carizza is juis ‘n verlies nie, want hy kon nog nie werklik vasstel wat die Argentyn eintlik in die Kaap maak nie — maar nou is sy logiese plaasvervanger, die
belowende Gerbrandt Grobler, vir twee jaar geskors weens die gebruik van steroïede. Leer julle ouens dan niks daar in die Kaap nie, wil Oubal van Nostro weet.
Daai is taktiek, sê Nostro. Geen Franse klub kan en sal hul hande op Grobler lê nie, nou rokkel hulle maar die BB’e se Jacques du Plessis en Flip van der Merwe af. Alles deel van ‘n langtermynplan om die opposisie te verswak, voeg Nostro histeries-giggelend by.
‘Tja, dis vir Oubal duidelik die Kapenaars het nog nooit van die BB’e se jong slot RG Snyman gehoor nie, of dalk is dit maar deel van hulle kop-in-die-sand benadering tot talent-identifisering. Vir ‘n wyle sal hulle seker tevrede moet wees met die twee flotte* Michael Rhodes en Rynhardt Elstadt op slot, wat albei wandelende geelkaarte is.
Maar Oubal verneem die WiePie?/Stommerds het ‘n beter langtermynplan as om hul spelers verbode middels te voer — vanjaar is blykbaar hul laaste seisoen met Allister Coetzee aan die afrigtingstuur. Wie sou kon
dink, Oubal het laas nog voorspel Toetie gaan regeer tot die oordeelsdag!
Oubal dink egter hierdie skuif is ses maande te laat vir Nostro-hulle. Te midde van vele gerugte oor wie hom gaan vervang, het Oubal so ‘n spesmaas dat hulle nie verder hoef te kyk nie as John Dobson, die man wat die Curriebekerleisels by Toetie gaan oorneem. Maar dit verg logiese wysheid van die Kapenaars, waarvan Oubal nie seker is nie.
‘Tja, dan het Oubal nog nie eens die kwessie aangeraak van die stormwolke wat aan’t saampak is oor die voortgesette gebruik van Nuweland as die Wiepie?/Stommerds se tuisveld nie, maar dis ‘n storie vir ‘n ander dag.
Hoe dit ook al sy, toet!-toet!, Oubal is bevrees die lig in die Stommerdtonnel is ‘n aankomende trein!*flot = flank/slot“There’s no light at the end of the tunnel in
their message, no promise of better things to come. There’s only the present stagnation, followed by a slow decline.” — John Pondhoretz
Stôôômmerds!
Tzaneen se drie hoërskole speel vanjaar die krieketvelde byna letterlik aan die brand. Dit is veral Ben Vorster en Merensky se leerlinge wat die gemoedelikheid (en dikwels vriendskappe) tussen hulle byna minagtend vergeet, as hulle mekaar op die sportvelde pak. Op die foto links is Philip Bester van Ben Vorster se eerste krieketspan in aksie in ‘n Pro20-wedstryd die afgelope naweek; en regs is sy spanmaat Deon van Zyl in aksie in dieselfde
wedstryd. Meer krieketnuus elders in vandag se koerant.

kolwer van die reeks.
